Why don’t we complain by William F. Buckley, Jr.

After finishing reading “Why don’t we complain” by William F. Buckley, Jr. I came to realized that it is true that many of us are so afraid to speak out when something is bothering us. We have the tendency to wait for somebody else to speak out. Out there in the world are a lot of issues which, I think, can be taken into consideration if someone speaks out for them. For example gas prices are rising again and no one says anything about it. Another issue can be college books, they are so expensive, but no one say anything about it. Not everyone has the determination to speak up when something bothers. I must agree with William F. that people are afraid to speak out. The reason why I say this is because of me, I must admit that I don’t have what it takes to stand p and speak for a change. Standing up and speaking for what it’s bothering you take lot courage. For Example if it wasn’t because of Martin Luther King and others that spoke up for his beliefs on racism, maybe today we wouldn’t have a change on racial equality.
