As a twenty two year old pregnant house wife during 1968, Claudette B. was happy with what she was given. She lived in a nice neighbor hood where their were little crimes and people looked out for you and your house when you were gone. Dr Martin Luther King junior was a major part of her neighbor hood coming together and being United as one. Back then you could leave your door open at night and know that no one would try to break into your house at steal your belongings. All of these things were great before King died. After his death, ever one in favor of what he was doing was in an outrage. Riots stated all over Memphis not even a day after his death. Claudette B. was sad that King died but she felt like if he saw what African Americans were doing after his death he would be very disappointed. He fought for equal rights but he fought for them in peace and not throw riots and violence. Claudette felt like African Americans were making the matter worst instead of better. One thing that she did see through all the violence though was other races joining in on the riots and revolts even though it was wrong. She also felt that white people were more afraid of black people after his death cause of the burning of buildings and the marches at night through out the city of Memphis. Claudette B. was pregnant with a girl that she didn't want to grow up in a city of destruction and turmoil. She didn't move but she did watch what her daughter did and were she went. These days the said she sees the change that Kings movement made, but it's still not were it should be.
