Social Justice writing - Social studies

Hello people! Todays blog is my first blog I did this lockdown.. This blog is about Social Justice and a little bit of some writing about it..

-Intro-

In our social justice hurumanu, we have learned about things related to social justice and human rights. And right now we have hw/homeworks to do for social studies because of the lockdown. This is a writing assignment where we pick three topics from what we have done from the last two terms, and each write three paragraphs of what kind of prejudice they face, what they want us to know, and what do I think about it. Then lastly a conclusion of what the main point of this whole paragraph is.

Social Justice

The 3 Communities I picked to write about-

-#StopAsianHate

-Same Love <3

-Young people with disabilities


What kind of prejudice do they face?kkk

What do they want us to know? kkk

What do you think? kkk


1st - #StopAsianHate

ooooAsian people have faced many stereotypical acts like for example “Asian people are either Chinese, Japanese or Korean” or “All Asian speak ching chang chong '' or whatever.. This year many people hated Asian people because of Covid-19.. Many think that Covid started from China and think that Covid came from bats and Chinese people eat bats.. Many also think that Asian people have fair looking skin and that they are also really smart at what they do, especially maths.. 

ooooNot all Asians are the same.. Not all Asians are good looking. Not all of us have fair skin, beautiful face and great body..Not all of us are smart at what we do ESPECIALLY maths.. Not all of us speak “Ching chang chong '' . All of us came from different kinds of countries with our own special language. Not all are Chinese or Japanese or Korean, We also come from different countries and specially different cultures. Make sure to find out where they are from before even accusing wrong assumptions of who they are. 

ooo I think that we should really think about what we should say to other people first whether it's offensive or not. Not all Asians are the same..Us Asians are not all the same with fair skin, clear face, skinny, handsome face or pretty face and smart. All Asian people have their own unique appearance, talents, and hobbies. 


2nd - Same Love

mmmThe Lgbtq+ community has faced many hates from people for the past few years. Many people hate the fact that love someone from the same sex is right and they think it’s wrong till to this day. They have also faced stereotipical acts such as “that If a guy likes pink they’re gay” or “if a girl likes to wear guy clothes they’re lesbian or a tomboy..” Many poeple are disgusted to people in this community just because they love someone from the same sex or whatever..  

mmmWe should accept people for who they love even if they are the same sex or gender..It doesn’t matter if they have the same sex all it matter is that they both love each other. Not all gay people wear pink and not lesbian people wear guy clothes or something like that. Not everyone part of the lgbtq+ are gay there are more to that, for example. Queer, Transgender, Asexual, Bi and many more.

mmmI think that we all should accept the fact that everyone is different in their own way. We should accept who others love and trust, what they look like, what they wanna be and things like that. It doesn’t matter if you love the same sex as you, as long as you trust and love them and so that person. Always be with them and don’t mind what other people think. Love who you wanna love and trust.


3rd - Young people with disabilities

mmmThere are many children/teens/adults nowaday with disabilities and many of them experience unwanted attention.. There are some scenarios where people with disabilities go to public places and some people do unnecessary actions that are not needed.. For example a blind person walking alone and peacefully then someone just grabs their shoulder without permission and just starts to pull them without even thinking if this person really needed help or not in the first place. 

mmmWe need to shift the way we think. Not all disabled people can't do something that you might think they can't do. Not all blind people can’t walk around, they still have their feet. Not all people with no legs can’t go on their own outside and wander around just because they have no legs. They still have a wheelchair that they use to go around outside and their wheelchair has those big wheels where they use to move around.

mmmI think that we should not underestimate people with disabilities and that we should make sure to think before you act. Ask them if they need help if you can see that they’re in need of help. Make sure that they are aware that you are helping them and don’t just act rashly. If you see a disabled person and they don’t need help, just let them be and they can get on with their lives peicefuly. 


Conclusion.

Think before you act and that we should always accept people for who they are whether they’re from a different country/culture, black, white, brown etc., different gender or sex, disabled or not. Let’s always make sure to remember that everyone has their own ways of expressing themselves, different hobbies, talents and many more. Accept one another.



That is all for my blog today! Hope you learned something new and hope you enjoyed reading it! :)

  2. Kia Ora Kristille,
    This is a thoughtful, thorough response to the prejudice that communities too often encounter. I agree with you that we should accept differences, whether based on ethnicity, gender, or those of people with disabilities. Well done!
