The question of gender equality has been debated about for many decades in different countries of the world. In the previous years of our history, this question has not been as sharp as nowadays. It was considered normal that women had lesser rights and occupied lower positions on the social ladder. In fact, in many countries, women were treated as the property of men and therefore it was justified that husbands abused their wives. Although women have been at a […]

The idea of “doing gender” depends on the possibility that gender is certainly not a complex of characteristics, yet is fairly a complex of exercises performed by people as per sets of standards recommended to either gender (West and Zimmerman 1987). Also, “doing gender” implies that an individual can’t stay away from this presentation since they have been taught in specific systems. Conduct contrasts can be related with protection from addressing one’s gender, however these exercises can’t be kept away […]
Nobody trusts themselves to be bigots nor would they like to be viewed as bigoted. Prejudice isn’t as pervasive in the present society as it used to be, yet we neglect to acknowledge unpretentious racial predispositions that are held subliminally in the entirety of our brains.

According to the Cambridge Dictionary, desegregation is the act of ending segregation between races or sexes in an organization. Integration, on the other hand, refers to the process of becoming part of a group of people.

These terms are central when it comes to public education in the United States […]

We have seen the inequalities between women and men especially in recent years. We have been separated by the pay gap, pink tax, and the general idea that women are perceived as less capable, or weaker even than men. This idea of sexism has to start somewhere though. It starts at the very beginning of a child’s life. Young people are raised in such a way where they are taught different behaviors and different mannerisms based on their gender. Many […]

The song is called “I’m Not A Racist”, it is sung by Joyner Lucas and written by Gary Lucas. The title “I Am Not […]
Living with a poverty level income is a difficulty facing many people around the world; poverty is a cultural universal, or trait found in every known culture – not an expression of individual differences.
