Museum of the city of New York

                                                                  

                     

Me and my class went on a trip to the "Museum of 
the City of New York.” I learned a lot of new   
things. I think that the museum did a good job 

capturing the main focus in each section. 

I learned a lot about the activism in New York        f                   
from the present and past. I didn't really know 
much about activism in New York and it was                           
really surprising to see such courage and pride 

in the people who fought for certain rights. 

There was and still is many struggles. This 

trip made me think more about peoples 

rights, and how you should stand up for  

what you believe in.

The museum made me feel very sad that 

so many people had, and still have unfair 

treatment. For example, there was Gay 

rights. A paragraph in the section for gay 

rights said that, “Discrimination, hate crimes, 

bullying, and homophobia persists.” As you 

can see, so many people have unfair 

treatment. I didn't realize how much of this 

really went on. People still fought for what 

was right. Now there are over 1,000 gay 

rights. It is  amazing how many people care, 

and want to stand up. 

The trip to the museum was very inspirational. 

People were, and are very brave and strong. I 

have learned to stand up for what yo believe 

in, and what is right. I have definitely learned 

a lot in during my trip to the museum of the 

city of New York.
