Some people are just born into really harsh conditions. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861070 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861070 Oppression is a global system in which we are all a part (even me as an individual), so we should all intervene and try to make positive change. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861071 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861071 The system is flawed because powerful people abuse their power, and regular people sometimes make bad decisions. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861072 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861072 Most of the world's problems happen because the system is totally unfair. Some people are just born into a neverending negative cycle and there's no way out. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861073 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861073 People in really harsh, tragic living conditions were dealt a really horrible hand of cards in life. The system is pretty much like a lottery. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861074 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861074 There are strong forces of injustice and oppression always at play, and we all participate whether we know it or not. We've created this system and need to fix it. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861075 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861075 "Brilliant minds are out there, and if people could just utilize the small talents they were given, they could make something out of their life. Instead of throwing money at problems, we should find ways to motivate all people." suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861076 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861076 "I am no longer reading the news or caring because there's nothing I can do. I hear the urgency to redeem society, but I can really only be responsible for my own individual actions." suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861078 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861078 "Everyone should at least be grateful for what they have. Nobody is entitled to anything, because other people have it a lot worse. When you are grateful, you can try to change something when the opportunity arises." suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861079 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861079 "I don't like saying 'give back' because it's one-sided. If you 'give back' to the community, that means you're not actually *in* the community, which means you waste the opportunity to know people and talk to them and be around them." suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861080 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861080 The world will be a better, fairer place when people take responsibility for their own problems and take advantages of opportunities they do have. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861081 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861081 The world will be a better, fairer place in your dreams. The system will never change. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861082 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861082 The world will be a better, fairer place when people who were given a lot learn to be grateful, and when poor people or criminals learn not to be materialistic and greedy. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861083 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861083 The world will be a better, fairer place when everyone understands that we have to fight injustice whenever and wherever we find it. Fighting injustice isn't for the benefit of oppressed people, but for everyone's sake. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861084 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861084 Rich people should invest in things like libraries and museums, so that people who do have the motivation can access free resources to improve their lives. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861085 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861085 The best anyone can do is to live morally as an individual, and to dissociate from oppressive people or businesses. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861087 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861087 Philanthropy and giving to charity makes a big difference in the lives of less fortunate people. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861089 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861089 Working together and listening to people different from ourselves is the key to a world in which all people can live good, meaningful lives. suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861090 2018-05-31 18:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264861090 The world will be a better, fairer place... suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863154 2018-05-31 18:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863154 Role of privileged people suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863308 2018-05-31 18:24:33 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863308 Quotes from students suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863389 2018-05-31 18:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863389 Systemic issues suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863501 2018-05-31 18:25:32 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863501 Oppression suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863588 2018-05-31 18:25:52 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863588 The Meritocrat suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863652 2018-05-31 18:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863652 The Resigned suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863703 2018-05-31 18:26:27 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863703 The Benevolent Benefactor suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863770 2018-05-31 18:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863770 The Activist Ally suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863821 2018-05-31 18:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264863821 "Four Responses to Injustice" - activity adapted from _Educating Activist Allies: Social Justice Pedagogy with the Suburban and Urban Elite_ by Katy Swalwell suky1 https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264875411 2018-05-31 19:27:34 UTC https://padlet.com/suky1/3q8z9pj6j065/wish/264875411
