Women in the 1800’s were very segregated from men compared to women today. Many of us don’t stop to think about all the hard work and bravery women put in for us to have the privileges we have in our modern society.

One of the most controversial problems in the world today is racial inequality. Ever since I was a little girl‚ I was always told to see the beauty coming from the inside of a person’s heart and to never judge someone by the color of their skin. As I got older‚ I started to realize just how serious of a problem this was and that many people take racial segregation and inequality to an extreme level. Although I have seen racial inequality only once in my life‚ I never want to see it happen again
