excerpt from Telling All Americans' Stories: Introduction to American Latino Heritage
by National Park Service
The movement of people, ideas, beliefs, and cultures across America's shifting borders and the consequences of these migrations are central to the
American story. Diego Rivera-a prominent leader of the 1920s Mexican Mural Movement-produced some of his most famous work in American
cities. As an outspoken member of the Mexican Communist Party, Rivera invited criticism during his travels, but even his most controversial works
resonated with American audiences during the Great Depression. His Detroit Industry Murals a National Historic Landmark-celebrated American
industry and Detroit's factory workers' strength and dignity
Latino/a Americans have been some of the most vocal and successful advocates for civil rights in the United States. During the 1960s, labor activists
Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez formed the United Farm Workers of America, a joint Latino/a and Filipino organization that created the first
permanent agricultural labor union in the United States. Along with the efforts of Filipino activists like Larry Itlong the UFW established
headquarters at Forty Acres in Delano. California's farm workers successfully executed the Delano grape strike and boycott, which drew national
attention to unsafe working conditions and resulted in a 1970 settlement with California's entire table grape industry.

If you DO NOT believe that all individuals have the same ability to reach their dreams, which group of people do you feel have a more difficult time, versus the ones who have an easier time reaching their goals or obtaining their dreams. Explain why.
Answers
Answer:
I'm sadly a pessimist on subjects like this. So, "No, "I do not believe all individuals have the same ability to reach their dreams." Let alone an option to even REACH for their dreams.Explanation:
Some individuals will naturally be limited by their personality (or mentality, if you like,) as a persons "drive" to reach their dreams could quite possibly be halted by any number of factors. Such as maturity, IQ, mental awareness, social status, and even personality defects like being Narcissistic, dishonesty, addictions, or even moral corruption can stand In a person's way. But when it comes down to basic human facts/behavior, a person's disposition and or attitude toward life could be either an anchor, (so to speak) holding them back like proverbial quicksand. Or it could act as a catalyst, rocketing them towards a future that only some can literally only dream of. in my opinion though, there is honestly only one reason (or theory,) as to why some people have a greater advantage of reaching their dreams. This would be the environment and or the manner in which a person was raised. A mentally and or physically abused individual is less likely to have the confidence, desire, or even know how to achieve their dreams. While, on the other hand, an individual praised in an loving/encouraging environment, where their parents not only showed them love and affection, but nurtured their curiosity and drive for life. They might grown up "knowing" their dreams were attainable, and therefore, knew their ability for success was gaurenteed or at the very least a likely scenario. Growing up in poverty Vs. being raised in a family with lucrative funds will also affect an individual's belief, drive, education and or ability to reach and achieve their dreams.Sorry for the long winded answer, lol, I hope it all came out making sense. :)GOOD LUCK.

Why might a capitalist say that capitalism is a fairer system?

What is individual liberty?Individual liberty refers to each of our rights to do as we like, within reasonable bounds.
