Community

"Men exist for the sake of one another. Teach them then or bear with them." - Marcus Aurelius Antoninus



"Essay on Community" Hubie Jones, http://www.mccormacktmp.umb.edu/nejpp/articles/20_1/EssayonCommunity.pdf
This article is defines the word community. He then delves into the 50's when America was still very racist and not accepting african americans into predominately white neighborhoods. He also discusses the ways communities should act.

No matter how different every culture is, they always have communities. All reacting to eachother in very different ways, but still functioning as the same thing. Communities in Africa bond together through tribal dances and bonfires, while communities in America have cookouts and parties.
