Stand For State Poster Analysis

Firstly, we are appreciated for being individual; we are not discriminated for having a disability or a different religion. This allows us make choices without being judged for the decision we make. Without equality in health and social care settings, individual will be judgemental, violent, crime rates will raise regarding discrimination and racism. Service users would not look after properly. An example of equality within health sector: stereotypes suggest that male should not become a midwife to treat pregnant females. The equality Act allows men to become midwives as they are able to have the same knowledge and experience as women. Another example within social sector: when fostering children, especially emergency fosterers we are not able to chose whether we take care of that child depending on their religion for example. This is to give all children the equal opportunity to be cared

A woman's right to equality should guarantee her that she will be treated fairly in the workplace and that she is respected as having equal value and worth as her

As a worker it’s your responsibility to have equality of opportunity that involves ethnicity, age, sexuality, race, gender, religion, and social class. This is an important way how to treat a person through equality not to be discriminated. Throughout your work you should actively promote equality of opportunity as a value and principles. For example: in St.

Throughout the semester, we have discussed many different social justice issues. One issue that has stuck with me is gender and racial inequality. Gender inequality is very important to me because I was raised by a single mother and surrounded by women all the time. I do not believe that anyone should be payed or treated differently due to their gender. While growing up, I saw that women are capable for doing anything and often times have to work harder than men to prove themselves. Racial inequality is an issues that is important to me because I feel that all individuals should be equal. I think Dr. King’s idea of color blindness, not today’s definition, should be something that we as a society strive for. We need to move past the idea that

Women continue to face disadvantages in the workplace in regards to not receiving equal pay as well. There are many instances where women have the same or more qualifications to do a job than their male counterparts but do not receive the same pay. This difference in pay is not only related to gender differences but also racial differences. Women employees of different racial backgrounds tend to earn less money than their white female and male counterparts. Many women of color often face discrimination when applying to jobs and are overlooked for a position despite having the qualifications to do the work. When they are hired to these occupations they are not receiving the same pay as their white female counterparts. This double bind that minority women face within the work place continues to lead to economic hardships. Regarding women in the workplace in general, due to society’s high regard for men they are often not promoted to positions of authority or receive equal pay because people assume that women are inferior workers. (Buchanan, p205-207)

Equality is important and means treating everyone fairly and giving everyone the opportunity to feel included.

In History equality is very important because for white men we have always had equality but for example in the textbook its quotes " in 1776, there was no equality for the half million slaves who labored in the colonies. Nor was there equality for women, who were viewed as inferior to men in terms of their ability to participate in society." Right there it proves that in 1776 not all American had equality only those that the government felt that should have it. Next the book also says that we have achieved equality by abolishing slavery and granting the right of women voters even though we have done that we will most likely never achieve equality be cause there's always going to be other high in stats than other or richer or even poorer than others therefore we still have not reached equality completely until everyone is treated as the same type of social class as the next person after them. Another thing is equality in medical care as you realize or may not if a homeless person with no money were to try to seek medical care ey would be denied but if a billion dollar man were to be in the same situation they would not hesitate to help

Equality is and has been a very popular and large debating issue in marriages, gender, education and even sports! On June 23, 1972, the Title IX Education Amendment was passed by the government (History.com). The Title IX Education Amendment is composed of several sections, and in section 1681 of the Title IX Amendment it states in simplest of terms that no individual can be denied an education or participation in any school athletic program because of their gender, also included in the amendment they are protected from discrimination under any educational program receiving Federal financial assistance (DOL.gov). The amendment is the reason why we are able have women’s and men’s sports teams in educational settings in addition to many other

Throughout the history of the United States, equality for all has been a highly sought-after, yet controversial aspect of American life. Whether it was the period of Native American reorganization or the destructive era of Southern slavery, it has been equality that continues to be denied to a certain group of citizens. In order to combat this, many efforts have been made to influence equality in all elements of citizen’s lives. However, in today’s society, many of these attempts have failed to be noticed, for true equality has yet to be entirely achieved. Notably, working women all over the country have been denied equal wages to that of men. Thus, condoning the use of wage discrimination against women in the workplace is unjust and inequitable because women perform many of the same jobs as men do, they are entitled to the same basic rights as the rest of society, and because laws have already been passed to illegalize wage discrimination based on gender. Both men and women in the labor force are expected of comparable tasks and performances, yet the payment that women receive as compensation remains noticeably less than that of men.

Many people believed that equality is a big factor in opening doors to more opportunities in life. If there is fairness and respect at a job it can create opportunities for others to be promoted. As jobs hired people they must treat all applicants as equals, and treat each and every individual with fairness and respect. An example is that some jobs require a higher standard of education for a person to be able to apply or even get into an interview. If someone has a bachelors and another person has only his high school diploma, the one who would get hired is the person with his

Throughout history equality has impacted many people’s lives. There are numerous equality problems that the United States has faced through the years. Even today, in the 21st century, we still experience inequality.

Over the years, sexism has become an unnoticeable problem that had made students oblivious to it. This is because we either ignore the different sexism acts or brush them off like it never happened at all. There are some examples of the starting point of this problem of sexism on some of the issues on “The Yell” at from the 1970’s UNLV (Quinn). The issues printed on September 18, 1974, and October 2, 1974 they had sections called “Pros on E.R.A” (Equal Rights Amendment) and “Stop E.R.A” by Jerry Quinn (Quinn). In these sections of the newspaper, he explains the pros about the E.R.A and it also explained why people opposed it at UNLV (Quinn). It gives us a perfect view of how the students reacted when this amendment was first passed in our congress

This is quite a simple concept of giving equal opportunities to all qualified applicants despite gender, race, religion etc. but it is the way its said that makes it powerful. A person should be hired on the basis of ability and production rather than gender or race. I was not aware that women had used the Civil Rights Act to gain some equality and opportunities, such as hiring processes (men and women treated equally), and also women’s ability to move up and be promoted. We also saw the categorical requirements, such as height and weight, removed. Once women were inside the workplace they faced a new set of problems, sexual harassment, poor treatment and no accommodations for pregnancy. Women being encouraged or even forced to wear provocative clothing, being sexually harassed and being on the end of lewd jokes was another obstacle women had to overcome. I believe this is where popular culture comes into play more than anything. If all ideas about women in the workplace stem from a time period where they were discriminated against and looked at to be lesser than men, then once they arrive in the workplace they will most likely not be treated fairly. It must have been tough for the pioneers of women in the workforce having to deal with all these obstacles. Pre-existing thoughts, viewpoints, ideas and assumptions based on popular culture made it that much more difficult for women to break down the barrier in the workplace.

Since it is 2017 many people are blindfolded to the inequality people face every single day. There are still cases of injustice against minority groups and there are still cases of discrimination against people in the “so free, so equal” country called the United States of America. If today’s world was so equal for everyone, then why are there current groups of activists who protest and fight for equality? I am here to tell you why.

As a young female, there have been significant historical events that have affected me as a woman in American society. First of all, the suffrage movement back in the early 1900’s was a huge step in equality between men and women. Having the right to vote was only the first step, and that same mentality of fighting for equality has trickled down through the decade into the feminist movement of today. I believe that people should have equal opportunity, no matter their gender, race, sexuality, or other category. This also ties into what issues are important to me as a woman and a human being. I would never want to work for a company with discriminatory hiring, unequal
