Coming 2016: All-Out War On So-Called Social Justice - 0 views

  •  
    There's a problem arising among the millennial generation, a generation that values art and culture. But it's beginning to take a turn, it doesn't like any form of authoritarian figure, whether it be from the left or right. These are the people who stand up against false grievances and over exaggerated remarks towards race, color, and gender.
  •  
    This is completely true, this generation has been so manipulated by the media, which they have depended on so fiercely as of late, that they will listen to anything they hear, and automatically believe they are experts in the field. People need to educate themselves, and grow up, and fast, because a generation of socialist, social justice warriors, that are uneducated, and have a twisted sense of justice have risen.

  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    Thank you for this! I will be using this for my research paper!
  •  
    This article/ website definitely hits many different ways racial profiling can happen. I always believed, why judge a person based off their skin color when underneath we are all the same.
  •  
    I found it interesting that it said racial profiling is patently illegal. it also says racial profiling is ineffective. It makes me wonder how often occurrences like this are allowed just because no one wants to deal with it.
  •  
    This website give an overview of what racial profiling is and the history of it. It also explains how it has a negative outlook for law enforcement and the communities they serve. It explains who can be racially profiled and how they are targeted.
  •  
    I do like the links this website has. Its very informative and gives good resources. This issue is a important on that ker2165548 is right, no one wants to deal with.

Equal Pay - 5 views

  •  
    Women deserve equal pay. On average, they are paid less than their male counterparts. It effects their spending power and what women receive in their social security.
  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    This is a really good article because it also talks about how race affects the pay gap. Most articles I find on the topic ignore how non-white women are paid less than white women. The struggle for mothers attempting to reenter the workplace is horrible.
  •  
    A reality unfortunately, in our society. It is almost hilarious how you read on all papers when you are hired :"we are an equal opportunity employer, no discrimination of any kind..." and yet the first thing you notice is the pay you get in comparison with a man who is less qualified than you but...he is a man. And, as kat2222004 pointed, very hard for mothers to reenter the work field, the mother is not trusted anymore to be a reliable employee.
  •  
    Really good article. I saw this as I was choosing a topic to discuss in our discussion last week. I 100% agree that women should receive the same pay as men. Women are such hard workers whether it is in the work force, or for those who have to maintain a family as well.
  •  
    The 77 cent claim has been repeatedly refuted because it does not accommodate for the fact that women are more likely to choose lower paying jobs or jobs with benefits. Men on average work longer hours. Single, childless women in major cities earn more than men. Women obtain 58% of college degrees. Women are less likely to go into STEM jobs. Also statistics are easily manipulated. Watch TJ explain the wage gap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWAlg48fNwE

    I definitely agree with this article. Even if some people like to think this isn't a problem it definitely is. For men and women in the same field regardless of what that field is men often get the higher income than women do. My mother is a major example of this and often talks about how the men in the same department as her make more money even when they produce less work that generally isn't that good. On top of that my mother works the same amount of hours and even more than average in a given week yet still doesn't come close to the pay gap. Of course, there may be inconsistency in statistics but it is definitely still an issue to be aware of because it still exists.

Community marches for social justice - 0 views

  •  
    About 700 to 1,000 activists came out to voice their opinion for change during the March for Social Justice and Equality in Murray, chanting and holding signs with ambitions to send a message to the new presidential administration on the first day of the term. This is widely known as the "Women's March." It was much more than the dislike of Donald Trump, or abortion, it was about other social justices such as defending people of different colors, races, and sexual origin.

    This article states that capital punishment isn't always fair. The sentences are predicted by race, defense lawyers, and state that the crime was committed in. Another role that comes into play is the mental illnesses that the criminal may suffer from.

    I do agree Discrimination happens every where. Discrimination can be about many different hings such as race, gender or disabilities one might have.
  •  
    This article talks about how discrimination can be found anywhere. I think that this article is very important. People being discriminated against sometimes feel like they are powerless to speak up and recognizing it as a issue will bring more confidence to those who struggle.

    This article was extremely intriguing. It gives wonderful statistics between the gender equality differences of men and women. The hardest one I found to believe was the difference between pay of men and women in the medical profession of surgeons and physicians.

The Gender Pay Gap in Nursing - 4 views

  •  
    the gender pay gap in nursing. Men make more money than woman nurses
  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    It bottles my mind of how women are still in equal to men. We are more advanced now than the 1900's. We should be able to treat women the same across all platforms especially healthcare.
  •  
    There definitely needs to be a change in this, gender inequality shouldn't be an issue anymore. Especially when the majority of nurses are women.
  •  
    This is so interesting I had no idea about this one reading the article is mind-boggling how can they justify paying someone less solely based on their gender. Amazing read!
  •  
    It really makes me angry that anyone could think that this is okay. Someone's pay should be dictated by the work they put in instead of their gender or race.
  •  
    The fact that this sort of inequality still exists just based on sex is crazy! And like your article states, gender is not the only affected area, but black, indigenous and people of color as well. Pay should vary on knowledge and performance, not ones ethnicity.
