Predicting the Future With Language

In my class of Equality, we have been focusing on what equality can look like in the future. In order to understand that idea, we had conversations about what injustice looks like in our day to day lives and what we can do to fix it. We had a conversation with a professor from UIC, a college here in Chicago. I was so excited to be taught by a professor in my senior year, because it prepares me for how a college class will feel like next school year. He was very engaging, as I liked the way he spoke and articulated his thoughts and ideas. He listened to my classmates' ideas and answers to his questions very well and incorporated us into his teaching. Our conversation was about issues that roam around our lives and what solutions we see that current people in power are doing about it. In my last Action Project for Equality, I had to think of a social justice issue that I believe will be relevant in 100 years. I had a lot of trouble thinking of an idea at first, but after having a conversation with my mom about how she feels left out in the world, my writing was sparked. I am very passionate about rights for people of color in America, so I decided to write about the equality of language.
