Assignment 7- Viviana Ortiz

On September 22nd in 1950, equality struck. Ralph J Bunche received a Nobel Peace Prize and became the first African American to be awarded this honor. Equality in all generations in the past and now, continues to be a problem. However, as humans become more aware of their surroundings, we see small victories against these issues. I appreciate this event thoroughly. I believe it represents the improvement that we have made as a species. Slowly but surely we are coming to understand that a human is a human, no other characteristic matters. Height, color, sexual orientation, gender… they simply make us interesting. What would this world be if every human had the same personality? With no difference? The same mind? Captured in the words of an unknown author, “Diversity is the one thing we all have in common, celebrate it every day.”
