I have an essay for reference but I need it reworded.

Requirements: With the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 many Americans felt that the issue of race had been “solved.” Yet the the most prominent leader of the Civil Rights Movement, Martin Luther King Jr. as well as the president of the United States, Lyndon Johnson, both disagreed with this triumphalist rhetoric. There was indeed a much more intractable component of civil rights that went beyond legal inequality–social (or economic) inequality and its overlap with race in the United States. Write a paper in which you analyze how these two leaders defined Civil Rights after legal equality and voting had already been guaranteed. Why did they argue there was more to be done? In what ways were the two men in dialogue?

Think about what the authors’ agendas were and analyze the documents in the context of the early or later 1960s. Who or what were the authors in dialogue with? That is, who or what was the target of the piece? And how were the authors defining the relationship between freedom and what it means to be American? Remember, your argument can only be answered using the document you are analyzing. So you can NOT, for example, argue that MLK was right (that’s your opinion) or Betty Friedan’s argument led to a backlash (even if it did you can’t support that using her document). Therefore, the argument you make has to be supported using their words. Analyze THEIR arguments and what they meant, not external facts.

Quote the text to support your argument and don’t let those quotes speak for themselves, analyze what they mean and be explicit in showing how they support your argument(s). In other words, tie them back to your thesis.

Your paper should be about 4-5 pages, double spaced, 1 inch margins, 12 point font.

I put the essay below along with two documents if you need them
