Social Inequality
By Clayton A, Dawson D, Jaden W and Juliette F
The Repetition of Acts in Society
Our Question: How can we prevent people from being judged by society’s views?
Possible Ways to Solve These Problems
A solution that can be used is removing all of the current officers from the area, and bring in new officers with different training so they can try to understand the situations that happen.
Another solution is The Kerner Report Solutions: "To mount programs on a scale equal to the dimension of the problems: to aim these programs for high impact in the immediate future in order to close the gap between promise and performance; to undertake new initiatives and experiments that can change the system of failure and frustration that now dominates the ghetto and weakens our society."

Dawson's Summary/Valuable Parts for Sources
Summary:
Source 1: it is saying how you need to stop judging by being mindful and that you need to educate yourself. It also says to look for good ness inside of everyone because your brain scans for negative things in people. But you must then look at your own behaver and then to feel good about yourself because everyone needs to thing the good inside of them
Source 2: it mentions why we judge it is mostly because we are insecure or even lonely. It also says what happens to the people we judge and some of that is you hurt them and put negativity in the world. But it also explains the process to not judge anymore.
Source 3: This source is where I got most of my information and it said how you need to think if you were born with a different mother and then realize that you’re not all knowing and then you must show respect to everyone.
Source 4: This one helped me to know that if people get to depressed than they might take their on life and it is probably a cry for help to show this world that we live in that judging is a serious problem.
The book tells me that you can’t be in anyone else’s shoes because everyone is different.

Source 3: helped me the most because it showed me the way to not judge
