Malcolm X Post IV.5-Malcolm's Foreshadowing into the Future (A Semi-Post I guess)

"My pilgrimage broadened my scope. It blessed me with a new insight. In two weeks in the Holy Land, I saw what I never had seen in thirty-none years in America. I saw all races, all colors, -blue eyed blonds to black-skinned Americans-in true brotherhood! In unity! Living as one! Worshipping as one! No segregationists-no liberals; they would not have know how to interpret the meaning of those words" (Haley 369).

In speaking these words, I believe that Malcolm has really seen the light for the future of the world. I believe that if there is a greater amount of unity in this world, the human race can solve any problem and move forward as humankind, not as one race or country. In the world today, there is too much sectionalism, racism, division, and "superiority complex" (as Malcolm X said). If we were to unite, and become a united species, we could cure many of the problems facing the Earth today that could include global warming, poverty, disease, etc. Imagine, all of the world's greatest minds working together for a common cause in the spirit of helping each other! There is no limit to what could be achieved. 

In reading this quote, school life also came to my mind. In school, there are so many "cliques" and such that keep student from interacting. Many times, the feeling of difference among individuals also leads to bullying and peer pressure according to http://teenadvice.about.com/library/weekly/aa102902c.htm . I've witnessed people going home and crying due to peer pressure and being affected in a negative fashion. As a class, unity could lead to us doing greater things at out time at PV and could lead to the additional benefit for individuals who resort to bad practices in order to feel good about themselves.
