<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">Choose one
of the forms of social justice we have discussed in class. Create a website
dealing with the form you’ve chosen. You do not have to use blogger.com, although it is a simple system that is quite easy to learn. Include the following things in blog posts or other formats within your
website:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">A: Definition:
Define clearly the type of social injustice/ justice you will be discussing
throughout the webpage. Give 3 general
examples/hypothetical situations explaining how an individual’s rights could be
violated though this type of social injustice.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">B. <a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3915959292826875631" name="_GoBack"></a>Links to two news article dealing with they type of
social injustice you are reporting on.
When you post your link, you should also have an introduction stating
the main topic/issue of the article, the points of view involved, and how it is
related to social injustice. BBC
news is a fine source for finding news articles on the various forms of social
injustice; you can’t search for your topic, but you should be able to review
headlines and find some related articles. READ the articles for
understanding. Don’t just read the
headline and assume you understand the issue. This takes a little research on your part.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">C. Social
Justice Amendment: Consider the ways that your form of social injustice is
misused. Write a formally worded
Constitutional Amendment designed to limit social abuse. Your Amendment must be well thought out
and considerate, not limiting the regular rights of any group, but preventing
social abuses.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">D.
Reflection on our community: Think about Abu Dhabi. Have you seen this form of social justice be violated? What
can you do to prevent your form of social injustice within our community? This
should be a full, thoughtful reflection.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face";">Grading:
Each section is worth equal marks.
I’m looking for thoughtfulness within reflection and writing. Spend time on these sections; these are
serious topics that touch each of us in different ways and you need to give
each section time. Writing should
be fluid and use appropriate vocabulary.
Streamline your ideas by cutting out boring, repetitive details and using
action verbs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Here's a pic of the Grand Mosque that we took over the break. It only took a few minutes to upload a photo. And below is a photo of me and my Santa Clause-esque father, who was, I think, trying to figure out his camera.<br />

Environmental Injustice- Environmental injustice is a major problem with native and poor populations worldwide. Particularly in Latin and South America, there have been many times that tribal lands have been taken in the name of development, for farming, dam building, or industry. Where this becomes injustice is when government bodies have claimed land that is traditionally owned by tribal groups, ignored their opinions, and sold the land for their purposes.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In Africa there have been numerous cases of "land grab". Most recently in Ethiopia, the government sold large portions of tribal lands to Chinese companies wanting to develop. Because groups of people's voices and claims are not being heard, this is a form of injustice.</div>

Wow, 44 views since yesterday. I just wish I had a breakdown of how many girls vs. how many boys looked at the instructions. Have a good day; I think I'll be back tomorrow.</div>
