Equality Is All Equal

976 Words4 Pages

EQUALITY IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND Good afternoon my dearest classmates and of course to you ma’am Generoso. Martin Luther king once said in his speech at Lincoln memorial last August 28,1963 “I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of it’s creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.” Equality is a situation in which we all humans should have equal rights, status and opportunities for any gender, age, religion and caste should not result to unequal treatment under the law and should not minimize the opportunity of an individual unjustifiably. I am astonished by how much myths were brought to us by our ancestors including the equality in human kind. “We are all equal” that statement keeps …show more content…

Gender inequality most especially among women is one of the most precise example for it. Yes, some of you might think that this agenda is tiring, boring and redundant but let’s face reality most women suffers from different harassment , violence and imbalance in the industry. Women are being abused not just mentally but also physically. Women are being pulled down in the industry just like some of the companies are just accepting men for the skilled work because they have doubts in the capabilities and abilities of women. Some also hire women so that they can save more because they will pay women much lower money than men thus labor standards should now be enforced to be equal in every country. It is stated in the labor code of the Philippines that every employee disregard of gender should be treated fairly and equally. In regard to my second point which is personal, no two individuals are exactly alike in this universe. In nature there is always variation just like in the characteristics of an

    God made everyone equal because not one person is better than another. “ in the Time of the Butterflies” the Mirabal sisters helped others see how women were invisible to society and treated unequally in the world. ‘From that time down to the present, it is clear that the changes our country has gone through have not been a product of the actions of men alone, but most of the leading female figures who acted alongside them are nearly faceless women.” Minou Mirabal . This quote alone shows that women have always helped men get the world to how it is today, but the women have never been given credit for what they have done for helping men.

    Equality lives in a collectivist society, which is a society that believes, “that man must be chained to collective action and collective thought for the sake of what is called “the common good.” Therefore, Equality being the person he is, struggles with being an individual. He knows it is against the law but he enjoys knowledge so much, it confuses him. He states, “And in our heart-strange are the ways of evil! - and in our heart there is the first peace we have known in 20 years.”

    1187 Words  | 5 Pages

    Equality, the quality or state of being equal; the quality or state of having the same rights or social status. The idea of being equal between races was thought to be insane before the Civil Rights movement and the rebellion of African Americans wanting freedom and stability for the first time in 245 years. Wanting paying jobs and homes for their families, two men who voiced African American difficulties, were W.E.B. Dubois and Booker T. Washington. They both built on different theories but in all aimed for the same objective of receiving the rights all African Americans deserved. However, Dubois makes the stronger argument because he appealed to multiple different audiences and is more ethical, making him more convincing and a source to trust

  • Ayn Rand's Anthem: The Motivation Of Equality

    855 Words  | 4 Pages

    Equality is something people want till people actually have it. Equality often limits a person’s abilities and disables to do something for themselves or inspire themselves. Equality's, the main character in the book Anthem, the primary motivation is proving that he is smart enough to become a scholar. Equality has a right to be motivated in this way since he believes that he can help the society so he is giving into the collectivism. I think that if everyone was motivated in this way, there would be a more progressive society where people sought to improve themselves and society at the same time.

  • Jefferson's Argument Analysis

    The meaning of equality can be completely different to certain people. A particular environment and perspective can impel someone to have a definition of equality that can differ greatly from the standard dictionary definition. In the case of Jefferson and the men who revised the Declaration of Independence, when they said, ¨All men are created equal¨ their views on equality of all men excluded: slaves, women, and Native Americans. When Jefferson wrote that infamous quote, it is safe to assume that by all men, he meant all white men. Freedom and equality is relative to the specific individual in question; our country has made great strides for complete freedom and equality, but here still is room for improvement.

  • All Men Are Created Equal By Milton Friedman Analysis

    My Values of Equality Milton Friedman, an American economist, in his article “Created Equal”, points out his concept about “Created Equal”. Friedman discusses the different ways that humans are considered to be equal, and then he declares three specific categories for human equality: equality before God, equality of opportunity and equality of outcome. Friedman argues that the first equality is the Founders’ use, the second equality is compatible with liberty, and the third equality is socialism. Equality is such a beautiful word that everyone should appreciate, and Friedman claims his points about its concept from his own comprehension. I really respect Friedman’s points about equality; however, there is something critical about equality which

    Mary Douglas quipped, “Inequality can have a bad downside, but equality, for its part, sure does get in the way of coordination.” Yes, inequality can have bumps in the road as she states with a bad downside. However, equality can bring in more than a bumpy road; it can tear down the balance of nature. Ultimately, equality could distract us from our relationship with God due to the excellence no one can compete with; Our world without God can lead us to this twisted, ungodly, and most terrifying place if we as a people decide for worldwide equality starting

    The fight for equality is still a fight to be had with only a rock to fight a giant. That giant is racism and all of the negative implications from it. Joe Feagin describes systemic racism as “the complex array of anti-black practices, the unjustly gained political-economic power of whites, the continuing economic and other resource inequalities along racial lines, and the white racist ideologies and attitudes created to maintain and rationalize white privilege and power. Systemic here means that the core racist realities are manifested in each of society’s major parts of the U.S. society, the economy, politics, education, religion, the family--reflects the fundamental reality of systemic racism”

    Not all the Same Equality is a term that is defined as “the state of being equal; correspondence in quantity, degree, value, rank, or ability” (Dictionary.com). In Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird, equality dictates how several characters are portrayed in the town of Maycomb, Alabama, at a time of racism, hate, and prejudice. Because of these topics being such an everyday obstacle for characters like Walter Cunningham Jr. and Burris Ewell, two students at the school, Boo Radley, a scared neighbor that saves a life, and Tom Robinson, a black man wrongly convicted of a crime, the idea of equality has a different effect on each character’s life.
