Diversity, Women and Inequality

The Pernicious effect… it makes perfect sense. The rich lack morals, you may try to deny this but it is true. Many wealthy individuals will do whatever it takes to stay wealthy and turn their head to actions that may be questionable. In order to fix this problem of morality we must bring our class gap closer together. This will bring down the wealthy people and set them at a level closer to the middle class where they must practice morals in order to get by. 

Property, a common thought associated with wealth. What if women counted as property? I mean that’s basically what a trophy wife is. Women in this past society had so many restrictions on what they could do. In order to be considered an adequate woman they needed to cater to their man’s needs. The “unnatural distinction” caused women to behave ignorant, during this time it was the best thing a girl could do. By just going with whatever they were told they were in a disgusting way better respected.  

According to Kozol schools extremely lack diversity, diversity indicates a mixture of different races, genders and ethnic backgrounds. Kozol believes that the schools that claim they are diverse are just segregated. You don’t usually see an Asian, African American and Indian all sitting at one lunch table. My definition of diverse is having all different types of people within a given area. Many Africans are considered miss-educated according to Woodson. They are taught to basically hate their own culture and believe that the white way is correct. Woodson believes that the best educated Africans are the uneducated or self-taught because they actually can think for themselves.
