Global Inequality chapter 9

People all over the world are suffering from hunger, and poverty while we are enjoying fine dining, fast cars and live in a perfect life. People in the west worry about ,I want to have the fastest car, the new IPhone or a great nick air shoes. While in the other hand people in India and eastern countries and African countries have no food, no home, and are in bad health condition. Global inequality is very important and should not be forgotten.

Everyday people contributing to this inequality and this cause. For example is Brad pitt and his wife went to Iran and contributing to the earth quack that killed many, or Soccer player Drogba building a hospital in Africa.  We see that there are those who are more blessed then we are helping the people who are in danger. This is a great example of spreading the wealth and helping people to live a better life.

social class

  

To me social class does matter in the U.S. As we seen in the PBS article ,when Karen a educated African American took  her self-made boyfriend to her house , he was not accepted by the family. I believe that people look at you and what you do. They look at your education level and how smart you are. A lot of people judge you and the things you do. U.S more than any country there is a visible social class difference ,from who doesn’t have a green card to your everyday doctor.  Wish there was a way people could look pass the social class but sadly its not possible.
