         <description><![CDATA[<div>In 2011, the spark of the Syrian Civil War began.  There are many causes of the war, some being the government against the people, part of it being a religious conflict, and a proxy war that includes Russia, Iran, and the United states.  Whatever the cause, it has killed over 220,000 people and displaced over half the countries population as of 2015.  The war also includes many countries like the US trying to destroy ISIS in Syria.  There have been over 9 countries trying to interfere in the rebel groups and ISIS.  </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Many instances of police brutality in America - especially associated male, African-American teenagers  being shot - have been increasing in recent years. The first major instance that made national and even international news was Rodney King. King, a black man, was hit more than 50 times with police batons - almost beaten to death - in 1991 for no apparent reason. This is what first brought publicity to this issue in modern and recent times. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In Spain, the official language is Spanish.  The Spanish government also wants the country to be a mono-lingual and mono-cultural society.  The country has a region called Catalonia, which is multi-cultural and multi-lingual.  Mostly, the region speaks Catalan.  The Spanish government is trying to stop this and make the region mono-lingual.  Catalonia is thinking of seceding from Spain if they don't let them speak their own language and have their own culture.  </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This conflict is also causing issues in the economy. Catalonia has a very important port called the Port of Barcelona. This port is very important to the Spanish economy. All of the money received in the port goes immediately to the Spanish government. This causes tension between Catalonia and Spain because the port is in Catalonia, but Spain took control of it. If Catalonia were to secede, this would cause Spain to loose a lot of money.  This is causing Spain to hold on to Catalonia and not let them secede.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div> </div><div>Other major cases of cops shooting, beating, or killing black teens in America in the last few years include Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, and Cameron Tillman because of their innocence. This has become a real racial issue in the US because most if not all the teens targeted were and are African American while most of the cops who allegedly beat them were white. Tensions growing have led to prominent figures in the black community calling for justice, often using the phrase, "Black Lives Matter." Multiple protests from both sides have created pressure between both political parties and races, specifically black and white people. The perceived power relationships between white and black people is biased on the white side. Most cases always fall on the offending - white's side.  <br><br></div>]]></description>

The racism seen in today's world all seems to stem from the oppression of black people most prevalent  in the 40's, 50's, and 60's. This unfairly tilted power relationship between black and white people has existed since the people of Africa were brought to the Americas to be plantation slaves.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The government and justice system is extremely biased against women, even going as far as to inflict laws that say every woman must have permission from a man to do everyday activities and that women can go to jail if they "disobey" a man. These aren't the only discriminations that women face, unfortunately. From an early age, girls are taught classes geared toward their roles as "wives and mothers." This further creates and deepens gender roles and puts women at a disadvantage to enter the workforce. Even worse, women are not allowed to sue someone without explicit permission from a man. They are basically silenced from speaking out against abusers. The power relationship between the genders is clearly tilted to one side in the most extreme way.</div>]]></description>
