Proposal

          Catholics fought for their own rights. Now days they have their own rigths. They have their own church were everyone can visit. Catholics now have a better education. They have their own rules for Catolics to follow.
         I think that Catholics should continue what they are doing and have their own things. Also I think that for catholics to not be discriminated anymore they should make their own schools and only have catholics children.
         In conclusion I think Catholics should have their free life without anyone making rules for them. Also I think that if they are going to make rules they should make the rules for themselves. In my opinion I also think that Catholics are good persons and they should not be discriminated for who they are.

Struggle & Activisim of Catholics

         Catholics have lived in America since its early days. They were discriminated against much of the Americas history. John F Keedy,a Roman Catholic, won the election of 1960. Since 1960 the world ecumenical movement that serves to unite Christians has caused further integraton of Roman Catholics into the American mainsteam.
         Catholics said that they should be treated as Americans. During discrimination they had a difficult time because they couldn't vote, catholic children couldn't go to school and they could not read the bible in school. The KKK were against the catholics. They discriminated the catholics and they hated them.
          In conclusion, the Catholics were discriminated very sadly. Catholics couldn't have a good education because they couldn't go to school and they could not read the bible in school. They had to like make their won little school and have their own education.

Change of the Catholics

        Catholics population is decreasing day by day. Some Americans confessed that they are Catholics. In the Early Modern Period, Catholic Church stuggled to maintain its traditional religious and political role in the face of rising secular powers in Europe.
        Catholics have been still treated the same way. They are treated as criminals and there aren't have been any changes towards them. Catholics weren't treated very good. They were discriminated since 1950. Childrens wren't allowed to go to schools. They have changed in that know catholic children can go to school without beeing discriminated. In Puerto Rico there is a catholic school were kids have a class of religion and they can read th bible but in other schools they can't.
         Catholics in the US have changed in some ways. They have the right to vote and Catholic children have the right to go to school and have a good educaton. I think that Catholics have the right to everything and they shouldn't be discriminated. Catholics are humans just like us the difference is their religion because there are different types of religion.

Catholic's Oppression

        French Catholics participated in the exploration and colonization in the Mississippi Valley. Maryland was settled in 1634 and was established in 1649. Catholic's were unwelcomed in and even execluded from many other colonies. Congregational or Episcopal churches were suported by law.
        Catholics weren't allowed to apply for jobs. After the large influx of the Irish in the middle of the 19th century many catholic children were educated in public schools. Catholics weren't alllowed to read bibles in school. They were mocked in classsrooms. In New York City catholic's were known by violent people, especially the Irish people. In 1839 the "American Bible Society" ordered that the bible was to be read in every classroom of the nation. A catholic boy was beated because he didn't want to read the bible; King James version of the Ten Commandments.
           Catholic's were mistreated very bad. They weren't allowed to apply for jobs especially the Irish people. Catholic children were not allowed to read bible in school. Catholic's and Irish people were known by violent people. People laughed at catholic people and children. Catholic's felt very bad.

History of Catholic's

 Catholic support for the Civil Right movement was weak in the late 1950 and slowly increased in 1960. Catholic league was marked by a schizophrenic attitude that would become its hallmark. In British History the freedom from discrimination and civil disabilities granted to the Roman Catholics of Britain and Ireland in a series of laws during the late 18th and 19th century. After reformation, Catholic's could not purchase land, hold civil or military offices. In June 1996  the percent was 23. Then on March 2002 it only increased 1 percent.
