Something that everyone should have and will have for the rest of our human existence.
“The Picture of the Civil War wasa discussion about something higher: about humanity, about human dignity, about human freedom.” Barbara fields said that. Most people would agree with her. The civil war was and still is about the freedom for all people to be free. Thousands of men fought for years of their lives for this freedom, which is still not quite achieved. But by them fighting for this we are a step closer to where we want to be. To this very day we are still fighting for our freedom. Weather its the freedom to express our selves or the freedom to be who we chose to be with out having someone telling us we can not do so. As long as man is here on this Earth we will always be fighting for some kind of freedom.

Slowly, with time, their freedom will be achieved. But just as the Civil war it will take a long time and possibly many years.

There are a lot of obstacles that have to be overcame but with help and determination this will be achieved.
