Letters to elected officials are a way ordinary citizens can present their views on a topic that affects others in their community. imagine you are a citizen of seattle in the 1960s. write a letter to the mayor expressing why laws prohibiting discrimination should be passed.

Dear Mr. Mayor

We, the citizens of Seattle, are witnessing how the brutality and savageness proper of the darkest times have taken the whole country, and we demand proper actions to be taken in order to keep the order of democracy and civilization.

The hatred with which white supremacists have brutally killed and ravaged the body of a 14 years old innocent black boy eight years ago in Chicago, the insanity of the criminal bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church that killed 4 little innocent girls this year in Alabama, and the segregation and discrimination in jobs, buses, schools, hospitals, universities, that we see every day against American and Seattle citizens, our neighbors, puts our democracy in danger. As a proud Seattle citizen I would like to say that my city is welcoming to every person of good heart, but sadly I cannot. The hatred, the injustice, the discrimination, must end. We are better than that. The United States of America is the oldest modern democracy in the world and a lighthouse for Human Rights and Seattle is an exemplary modern, civilized and democratic city. This country opened its arms to every immigrant of any nation and any race, as it is written in the Liberty Statue scripture: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" Let's follow the path of our founding fathers.

Please, Mr. Mayor, follow the path of the Patriots, of Abraham Lincoln who after ending slavery a hundred years ago said: "Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." Let's not deny freedom of walking without fear, of studying and learning, of working, of living to those who are our neighbors and Seattle citizens.

Thank you,

Sincerely yours
