Solving Social Problems will take A LOT OF WORK!!!!! Our Society's way of thinking and behaving will have to be completely reconditioned. I will start with racism which I feel is the most influential issue! Racism is so deeply rooted, it is a generational curse. Racism consists of ideologies and practices that seek to justify, or cause, the unequal distribution of privileges, rights or goods among different racial groups. Modern variants are often based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples. These can take the form of social actions, practices or beliefs, or political systems that consider different races to be ranked as inherently superior or inferior to each other, based on presumed shared inheritable traits, abilities, or qualities. It may also hold that members of different races should be treated differently.[1][2][3]
racism started from the time the United States was taken away fro m the Native Americans.
Then they removed, relocated, and used African Americans as slaves,to do hard labor in their "new found" land.
The inequality in the United Sates would have to be addressed. There is unequal earnings, and work, with the richest 20% of families earning more than twelve times as much as the poorest 20% of families. This is due the social class that our society is divided in. Wealth, power, occupational prestige in so unfairly distributed, that it would be hard to convince the high class that they need to share their wealth. I personally feel like the slaves did the hard labor, came up with genius inventions, had families destroyed and the whites made a profit.
Will Social Stratification ever disappear? I sure hope so! There will also have to be a better understanding of Humanity in order to deal with our ongoing issue of Homelessness.
We are human beings and we all deserve to have the same opportunities, though some may not prosper,from different races we should all be treated equally.
