Poverty and Death

          Hunger, poverty, diseases and illnesses, these are the silent killers of children all around the world. The number of children dying all around the world increases each year, and right now 22,000 children in the world die each day. Many children can’t afford food, and can barely have one meal a day; some children even skip a day of food because of poverty. Some countries are filled with deadly diseases and illnesses, and a lot of these children in these types of countries such as Africa don’t have enough money to get immunization to these illnesses. Many children all around the world, experience the pain and suffering of poverty which can lead them to a terrible life style or even death.

              In the world, children face horrible fates which are extremely surprising to people who don’t experience the harm of poverty. In the world, 22,000 children die each day.1 child dying every four seconds.15 children dying every minute. That’s like a 2010 Haiti earthquake, or a 2004 Asian tsunami happening every ten days. There are 8.1 children dying every year. There was 88 million children died between 2000 and 2009.These statistics are scary, but faces us with the truth of the real world.

          Poverty has taken away many children’s lives; the children who survived are faced with a terrible lifestyle. Around the world 2.5 billion people lack the access of improved sanitization. 1 billion children are deprived of one or more services essential to survival and development. 148 million under 5 years old in developing regions are underweight for their age. 101 million children are not attending primary school, with more girls than boys missing out22 million infants are not protected from diseases by routine immunization. 8 million children worldwide died before their 5th birthday in 20094 million newborns worldwide are dying in the first month of life. 2 million children fewer than 15 are living with HIV .Poverty is everywhere where it is least expected.

          Deaths, poverty they are both connected and have caused much trouble in the world. People who are involved in poverty are missing out in the beauty of life. The terrifying statistics about poverty and death, gives us the sight of what the real world is like. Not all people have an average salary, not all people can afford a three coarse meal, and not all people can survive.

Gay Pride

          Equality, whenever you hear that word you think of people from different cultures, different skin tones but equality isn’t all about that. Gay people and lesbians, in our society some people don’t accept them, in the whole world some people don’t accept them. Equality isn’t only about accepting people from other countries ,its about accepting people as a whole, no matter whether they are black or white, are gay, are a lesbian. In the world today people who are gay are made fun of, people are disgusted by them, I don’t think this is right. Gay people and lesbians should have the right to do what they want to do, they aren’t hurting anyone, and they aren’t causing any harm to the society so we should just let them be. All people have the rights to do what they want to do; there aren’t rules that detain us from letting out the person inside of us, showing our true colors. Gay people should be able to express there love and emotions for people of the same gender, they should have the right to marry each other, people shouldn’t treat them as outcasts; they are just like you and me.

          When gay people and lesbians hold hands in public, dress in a fashion to show that they are gay, people look at them differently. Some people just don’t accept these people in our community, in our world. When gay people turn their backs people make fun about them, say cruel things about them. Gay people are stared at, given dirty looks by others. But it don’t see anything wrong in gay people and lesbians they just are interested in people from the same gender as them, they aren’t out killing people so why are some people making such a big deal out of it? Is there really a problem with people likening someone from the same gender? Gay people are just like you and I, we all have different interests and different perspectives of life but inside we are all equal and should be treated that way. Gay people and lesbians should have the freedom to do whatever they want, to show affection of someone from the same gender, they should have the freedom to dress the way they want to. It may seem different seeing two men holding hands when their walking down the street, but they aren’t hurting anyone, they shouldn’t be made fun of, they should be treated equally as others.

          Gay people and lesbians are people to, there like you and me, so why are they treated like aliens, outcast, wild animals .They are being made fun of, teased every single day about there beliefs, about their interest I just think this is completely wrong. equality is usually a term used between peoples backgrounds but people should realize it applies to gay people as well .Gay people should have the rights to like someone from the same gender as them, the rights to marry a person that’s the same gender as them. Why do some people see them differently? Why do some people make fun of them? Why do people stare at them? Gay people are human beings too, everyone from the outside is different, but from the inside we are all the same and should be treated that way.

Rasicm,Discrimination and Stereotypes

          Skin color, race, and appearance, everyone’s different in their own special way but we should all be treated equally. Doesn’t matter about how we look like, our skin color, what country we are from, this doesn’t make anyone deserve racial discrimination, racist comments and stereotypes. They shouldn’t be attacked by the treacherous and mocking words they hear from other people about them. There are many stereotypes circling the world about people from other countries that are truly wrong and racist. These comments can really hurt people, and makes them not proud about their culture. Everyone should be proud of the country there from, and be proud of who they are. Racism and stereotypes decrease their self esteem and make them feel sad, depressed, ashamed, and even angry to be from the country they are from. These comments, these remarks haunt people for the rest of their lives, people get treated unequally from others just because of their race, and this should be stopped.

          Black skin tones, white skin tones, tan skin tones shouldn’t be a problem in the world, there just the color of out skin. People get racist comments, discriminated and are not treated equally every day just by the color of their skin. For example some people look at people with black skin tones funny, staring rudely at them and talking behind their backs. People even tend to become rude when a black person comes up to them to ask them a question. They stare, ignore them or answer them in a rude manner. Some black people even get arrested some times for having a “suspicion” by the police of committing a crime; this is mostly influenced by their color. People with different colored skin tones should not be treated this way and doesn’t deserve in anyway this type of disrespect.

          Cruel people like to tell people something about someone that is completely not true, but just thought so because of their skin tone and culture .This is very brutal upon people who are made fun of because of rumors that spread around because of their race, this is called stereotyping. When people look at you and assume that you are for example a criminal, trouble maker, just because your black is totally untrue and unacceptable. These comments can really hurt someone. People get teased, and people are scared of you just because of your skin tone and culture. There are many stereotypes everywhere that are told about certain cultures that are completely not true. For example all Asian have a rice cooker and a karaoke machine, and people tend to refer to Asian people skin tones as “yellow”. White people are apparently not good dancers and have name brand designer clothes, this isn’t true at all. People get hurt about these stereotypes that are heard everywhere, it influences others thoughts about people when it is completely not true.

           Why are people discriminated because of their culture? Why do some people believe stereotypes that are completely untrue and apply them to others? Why do people treat others unequally just because of their skin tones? People are hurt, mentally and even physically from hearing lies about them that people tend to think are true. People are people, humans are humans, everyone’s appearance may be different but inside we are all the same. People have to stop discriminating others. People have to stop treating others unequally. People have to stop hurting people by the things they say and do. We can change. We can make a difference out in the world. Everyone is equal and should be treated equally.
