Socioeconomic Adversity by Kismot - March 2017 Scholarship Essay

People discuss discrimination,racism,Homophobia, and sexism everyday not only do people discuss these issues but there are people who actually have experienced or been victims of these issues. These issues are all put together in one word socioeconomic adversities -social and economic difficulties people experience in our daily life. Among all these issues, RACISM is one issue people face everyday especially people of color all over the world.
    In fact, I was a victim in this category. About a month ago, I wanted to be by myself so I chose a seat  at the back of the school bus then this guy who calls himself “black American” came to me and told me “ do you know that seat is for Black Americans only” just his sentence made me remember what happened to Rosa Parks. I was very disappointed at how ignorant he was because I am African American who has an accent -I felt so degraded and upset , I said to myself “ how can this still be happening it's been years now!”.
     In Conclusion, socioeconomic adversities goes deep into the American Culture it is not an issue that can be solved with just the law or constitution but with awareness and more education. Its shocking to still see people being discriminated and harassed based on gender or race at this modern age but it's a big problem that can be solved with large unity not only in America but all over the world.
