Fight Back!

Catholics were mistreated by many groups in the United States. They’ve been though a lot but never gave up. They did everything they could to get equal rights just like any other person in the world and they didn’t care who would try to stop them because they were giving it there all.

Catholics found a way to be treated like they should be. They decided to gown in with the American society but still keep their religion the same and to keep practicing it. They even gowned in both World Wars so it would look like they were a part of the group and fighting for these people. Gowning the American army shows how much passion is shown to the Americans and for them growing and becoming one of the army people. Catholics started getting the attention they needed from people so that they can see Catholics are just as equal and same as other people in the world and that all they were doing was fallowing there believes.  People then started growing the group and started seeing their bright side and gaining people to help the poor and have a better life for them. They opened homes for poor give them food, clothing ex. from what Catholics started doing people started seeing their good side and that they were never bad in the first place. Others started accepting them just for religion and for just having a religion. Catholics started getting better and better and before you know it John F. Kennedy was elected president. John F. Kennedy was a Catholic and had a hard time getting it as well but he still won and showed the people that Catholics were a part of something
 
Catholics fought long and hard for respect and at the end they got it. People started seeing a change and who Catholics are really are. growing that one group changed their life’s they tried their best to fit in with everyone which is what they did and still practice there religion and believes this group has been through so much and getting what they wanted at the end was worth it.

Mistreating Catholics

The Catholic are very well know in the United States and around the world but back then it was not. Catholics were discriminated by many different group and different types of people. Citizens who wanted to practice the catholic religion were very hard for them because they were not accepted and could not really do much about it ether.

In British history the Catholics were not treated fairly in a series of laws during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. After the Reformation, Roman Catholics in Britain had been harassed by numerous restrictions. In Britain, Roman Catholics could not purchase land, hold civil or military offices or seats in Parliament, inherit property, or practice their religion freely without incurring civil penalties. They also could not vote.

A person who came from other countries like Ireland and wanted to practice the Catholic religion was very hard to do since the Ku Klux Klan was agents them and controlling them and so did other groups as well. They would burn there houses and mostly everything they owned and leave them homeless. These groups also fought and killed many Catholics. People believed that by practicing the catholic religion they were destroying the United States.

Catholics in the states had a hard time when they practice their religion. They were discriminated by many groups like the Ku Klux Klan they only accepted the pure white and by the Protestants. The KKK has done many things to the Catholics and made their lives the worse but they still fought though it tills the end.

Cultural Catholics!

 Most of the Catholics in the world probably fit into the category of cultural Catholics. This group is unlike any other type of groups in the world. Their known as "Catholic" their more social than religious and most people know them as "womb to tomb Catholics." Most were born in a Hispanic, Irish, Polish, or Italian family which means their baptized, married, and buried in the Catholic Church but have little or no concern about spiritual matters.

Cultural Catholic was established in 1983 to form a group of Catholic to techs the rights for Catholic and their own religion. They that religion was the most important and they did criticism any one else’s religion and just like other groups there are people that don’t like the cultural Catholics because the way they treat their own kind and how strict they are. Many people expect many things for Catholic people and how they think there rule molder and they have to fallow all the rules and laws that were passed for them.

Even though they have past thrower so much they still stuck to their religion and their believes it is very hard to do what they have don but they still kept on going with what they believed in and that is very special to them and their believes in life. Many groups went through a lot to get where they are but they still stuck it out and went all the way. Still today this group exists and helps out the Catholic in the world.

Abuse of the Indians

The Indians have been passed threw so many things that still to this day it affects them in a very hard way. They have been moved from their land “the black hills” by fours and not by their own will that by itself is horrible. They had to be converted into Christians so that they cud be accepted. From their home in the black hill they were moved to reserves that had poor living conditions and many feel ill to disease.

Grant and other leader triad to bribe red cloud so that he would sign their contracts and hand over there land but the whites never kept their word. They trick red cloud into signing their contract but he did sign the other one they had for them. Sitting bull was more stubborn in terms of dialing with the whites he did like the idea of the changing there culture so he never sign anything. Even if grant thought that it was for their best interest to sale their lands and getting money out of it.

They were fours to convert to a deferent religion if not they were not accepted in the community. They had to use a Christian if not they would be ignored until they chose one. That is not something that you can let go that easily many had trouble changing their name. But after they did they would be treated normally.

The worst part of all was that they fours to live in the reserves with terrible living conditions and disease the kill most of the Indian that staid there. Many Indian fell to illnesses in dowse reserves and they weren’t really that happy there they cud not hut, they were cut off from nature and away from their home. There weren’t that many supplies for the doctors all they had was liker so that they would not feel the pain.

The Indians still suffer from all of these experiences and they are still not treated the same way as whites. It is very sad when you think about it all this people taken away from their homes and being fours to change their way of life that you have kept for so many years id cud have not been easy. so even do the whites treed to help them in the end the damage was done that is something that cannot be forgiven.

My cousin had problems when she was in puerto rico so she had to move to the united stats she had her legal papers when she went to Miami all so she can have a better life for her and her family.

I miss her now that she moved but I understand that she had to go when she finely made it there she called and told me all about her traveling there and how the people where nice but very different and how she got her job very quick since it's easy to find work there.

At the end she found everything her way a guy walked into her life and a nice paying job which she called a better life I still hear from her now and then but I'm really proud of my cousin and her choose.
