Civil Rights In the American government, several civil rights events have been discussed to show how they influence a sense of social responsibility. On July 2, 1964, are when the American civil rights legislation law was enacted, and this Act managed to outlaw discrimination issues based on issues like sex, race, national origin, and religion. From this Act, people were given the right to be politically and socially free thereby fostering equality. For example, the Montgomery Bus Boycott became the turning point for the African Americans because they would soon enjoy the freedom of movement and influence other civil rights groups globally. Parks saw an opportunity, and she was determined to stand against the unfair laws imposed on African Americans (Kenney, 2015). After Park's arrest, the yearlong boycott started and directed towards the racially segregated city buses. The protesters persevered through the unrelenting pressures from county courts, city hall, and white extremists. However, their struggle was successful because the whites and people in the media embraced it. For those who participated in the boycott, democracy became tangible, and they shared a communal awakening (Burns, 2012). From this event, the national agencies responded ethically and ensured that all discrimination again the blacks were prohibited from ever resurfacing because it was going against human ethics. The government of America through the Supreme Court became socially responsible for the actions and ruling it dispelled.

The right to vote gives U.S. citizens the opportunity to exercise their civic duty and choosing their leader. However, this was not the case for African Americans because they faced strong and even violent resistance from the whites shortly after independence. This would not last long because the African Americans decided to fight for their civil rights...

For example, minority voters were disenfranchised in Texas, and the state has repeatedly blocked changes required at the local and state level. The state is seen to encourage early voting among districts with minorities as a way of discouraging them from taking part in the voting. Like in 2007, strict voter registration rules were enacted. Sadly, the act of prohibiting the minority groups from exercising their civic right is wrong like normal citizens. Therefore, government agencies should examine the Voting Rights Act and appreciate the civic duty of every individual in the state concerning voting and the right to choose leaders that they like. The ethical deed from the government agency is to allow the minority groups to vote. The actions of courts would be a social responsibility because it would give this person a voice.
Media Events

After the Hurricane Katrina, the media covered this event extensively and looked at FEMA’s response that was displayed to be slow. The negative tone shaped media’s agenda and the response from the government became limited to the role played by public health coverage during the hurricane. FEMA’s director then, Michael Brown, defended his institution by explaining that the slow response was attributed to the fact that they had not been authorized by the government to evacuate the people. In his opinion, it was the mayor’s responsibility to hasten the whole evacuation process, which he failed to do even after President Bush recommended him to act. The people story and perception on FEMA showed that much of the responsibility given to the body regarding the response to the national disaster made many civilians to lose trust in the way the government handled the whole situation. Nonetheless, the response system during the disaster could follow the predetermined disaster plans.…
