Every human in
this world is promised to something from love to a better country.
Promises are to be true to happen, but sometimes those
promises are broken and never to happen. An example of a promise
that did come true was to make racial justice. This promised was
made by Martin Luther King Jr.s in his speech, I Have a Dream. In
his speech, he promised to make racial justice for the reason that
there was no freedom of racism. An example of a promised that did
not come true was the promised made by a leader of a socialist
group,
Jim Jones.
People joined a socialist group called Peoples Temple, who were
promised by Jones to move to
Jonestowna
place that he created for the people that Jim Jones authorized.

As Jonestown
People work hard they also did not have the liberty to at least
have a good meal in the day. Layton explains the food that they
would eat throughout the day, Received a thick slice of cassava
bread with brown syrup on it...We dont waste food here. It takes
too long to find it, plant it, grow it, then cook it (Layton 168).
Jim Jones did not pay Jonestown People to work, so the least he
should have done is feed them good. To add on,
Peoples
Templedid not have the liberty to take a nice shower after a
long day of sweating from work. Layton explains Jim Jones rules
towards showering, Planning ones shower was important because
showers also had restrictions. Anyone reported to have allowed the
water to run longer than two minutes was assigned to the Learning
Crew for a day (Layton 184). To continue, People from Jonestown
did not have the liberty to live with their own family, Our
cabins, tin-roofed and small, could have housed families, lovers,
children, with their parents, but instead we were partitioned into
nonbonding arrangements (Layton 186). The reason for not having a
close relationship with your own family was not allowed because it
was a sin to Jones. Layton explains her relationship that she
needed to have with her own mother when they were in Jonestown,
There was a fine line between too little and too much empathy. Too
much compassion meant youd break under torture and questioning by
the enemy. Too little proved you could become a turncoat and
traitor to Father (Layton 187). However, Martin Luther King Jr.
wanted people to live with liberty and have citizenship rights. As
he recalls the rights that every human being has in America, This
[promissory] note was a promised that all men, yes, black men as
well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable Rights of
Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness (King Jr.).
