Arizona has been considered in a water crisis for decades. This National Geographic article highlights the historical and economical significance of agriculture in Arizona and why its desperate times are worth being concerned about. The experience of sharing water burden, a ruling that was implemented and began in 2020, is a stress farmers never imagined.

Bullying has taken on a dis ques behind social media. Bullying has now a even bigger platform with ability to reach millions with the help of social media.

People are too afraid too confront others, so they go online and make fun of them instead. When we are behind our phones or computers we feel a lot more comfortable and don't think much about it. Cyber bullying is wrong and hurts others emotionally.

I am also glad that this was an article posted. This is such a growing issue, and has been for sometime. It's extremely unfortunate that school are part of this, and when these children go home they can't find solace because of the internet and all the social apps created.

This website goes into great detail to explain how age discrimination works and its many forms. This is a government website making the information found here credible.

It is interesting to observe how the law excludes simple teasing and excludes a deeper explanation of this. In my work experience simple teasing can vary greatly depending on who is determining the case.

Human trafficking has a great impact on its victims. IF victims are able to get away from traffickers, they will still struggle for the rest of their lives. Even though they got away, they will forever be scarred. They will always remember their experience.

This is very true because most were forced or tricked into it. Not to mention they make them do some unspeakable things.

An article that explains the imbalance of education opportunities within races and how it can affect children into adulthood. It starts by presenting the issue then goes into what it means for those affected.

This article shows the inequalities in the education system and how it negatively effects education and children's lives. It shows that children are getting unequal opportunities based on the color of their skin. This can be used to show indifferences in education.

The article focuses on the the subject of race in the classroom and the impact it has had in education.

Youman's attempt to seek a promotion that she was more than qualified for ended with her manager denying her and telling her its because she is a woman. The article explains the depth of Walmarts descrimination practices.

I think this article was a wonderful way to give people insight on how big companies such as Walmart are discriminating against women. Many people use Walmart as their number one grocery store thus supporting the company. Many people are blind to these types of issues. Great article to find!

This isn't related to my topic at all, but I thought it was amusing because I used to work for this horrible company. They would preach things like, "This is that place," which is a reference to how Walmart is "such a wonderful place to work." In reality, and I say this from experience as an ex-member of their management team, it is NOT a great place to work. They don't value their employees, they don't have consistency across the company, and they have horrendous accountability standards AND consistencies.

Until you are placed in a position where you either witness, hear of, or experience this type of abuse, you are likely to be surprised that it exists. When we think of the elderly entering nursing homes, we assume they are cared for and safe, which is not always the case. The horrible abuse that takes place daily is disturbing and obviously have irreversible effects on those abused, and their loved ones.

The article discusses the gap in pay many people face in the U.S and the inequality they experience from their day to day job. It stresses that everyone doesn't start off on the same playing field and that some things are refused to woman, people of color and so on.

Food security is a right that every individual has, the article helps brings justice to how important it is for families to have the foods they require to survive. As the rich grow richer, more and more families are left without food. They live with their worries on how to get food on the table and the problem is only spreading.

I like the take this article has in regards to physicians needing to encourage more information about resources for their patients. This article breaks down key points on how food insecurity is a social disease that can be worked on and helped at all levels of society.

Hearing that food insecurity is a rising problem today is disheartening, but it is also not surprising. With a growing population and an economy that squeezes natural resources dry, food is becoming less abundant. I like the take this article takes on food insecurity. They are trying to have physicians help patients cope with it. I doubt how helpful that will be because people who experience food insecurity might not have access to a physician either.
