Research question- how people get enough equality and freedom from discrimination? How is life going? Is the government against them or support them?

“62 journalist killed in 2020, just for doing their jobs: UNESCO”, 1 November 2021 https://news.un.org/en/story/2021/11/1104622

In this newspaper about UNESCO protecting media workers, 62 journalists were killed for their jobs, 1200 professionals lost their lives between 2006 to 2020 and nine out ten cases the killers go unpunished. the UN Secretary-General, António Guterres tells that many journalists lost their lives while covering conflict. When investigating they find that many countries have trafficking, human rights violations, and journalists have lives at risk. Most media workers have been killed outside of zones in recent years. Mr.Guterres said, “crimes against journalists have an enormous impact on society as a whole, because they prevent people from making informed decisions.” Therefore, journalists have to face ranking from kidnapping, threaded from other countries, and harassment. He also mentioned that women journalists are at particular risk. He include that online violence against women journalist. 73 percent of women journalists threatened , intimidated and insulted online connection with their work.Audrey Azoulay said, “States thus have an obligation to protect journalists and to ensure that the perpetrators of crimes against them are punished. Judges and prosecutors in particular, have an important role to play in promoting swift and effective criminal proceedings.” In this article it also said in recent years UNESCO trained 23000 judicial officials, judges, prosecutors and lawyers. This training covered the safety of journalists and related to freedom of expression and focus on issues of impunity.

In this newspaper article I agree with journalists because if we see more newspapers we can know more about journalists than how they can suffer in their life. This article shows how they suffer, which is, “crimes against journalists have an enormous impact on society as a whole, because they prevent people from making informed decisions. Journalists face countless other threats, ranging from kidnapping, torture and arbitrary detention, to disinformation campaigns and harassment, particularly in the digital sphere.” This means that journalists don’t have safety for their life and they always have lives at risk. Is the government responsible for them or not? How can they live safely? I need to look up more about how this can affect them mantally and physically. 

“In 2020 alone, according to the UN cultural agency UNESCO, which works to protect media workers, 62 journalists were killed just for doing their jobs. Between 2006 and 2020, over 1,200 professionals lost their lives the same way. In nine out of ten cases the killers go unpunished.” (1st ph.)

Aiyesha Wani “women rights” April 4, 2017, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41i0rabEdUE

In this video the author researches women rights. She said we have so much progress in the world gender stereotypes continue to be a big problem and we can’t fix this problem. The problems are education, job equality, and the basic rights every woman deserves. She explained that education is more important in our life to get a job. However, when boys and girls both have education, girls have to face more problems to get equality. She gave the example of Malala who is a Pakistani girl and fights for her education and women rights. She also gave an example of Yemen that women can’t vote, and Saudi Arabia women not allowed to drive, women have to ask for permission to leave the house and she also said women don’t have basic rights as men. She compares herself and others. This video also included that women can do anything as men. If women and men both get equal rights and freedom then it will make a peaceful world.

This video is really helpful about my topic and this video explains that we need to change our perspective .I agreed with author Aiyesha that she showed more clarity about equality and freedom. She explained how women do and what women should say,”women have always doing household chores and child care. Women should be the ones standing up and say I want to be a doctor or engineer”. I have a question about why they do this, why the government can’t give equality? I want to say to the author that I think this video can change most people’s perspective about women rights. This video gives power to women and stands up about freedom and equal rights. This video connected to my research question because my research question has to do with freedom and equality. This video only talks about women rights but researches whole people’s freedom and equality. However, make them understand their mind and people can change their mind. It doesn’t matter if it’s women or men if everything will be equal.  

In this video the author gives a speech to the audience. In the video the author intended and purpose is about women rights. This genre is clear and makes sense for the author what she

wants to accomplish. In this video the author gives a good example and she compares herself and others, clearly to the audience about her topic. 

“Malala risked her life for her education,…. Women are not allowed to vote and Saudi Arabia women are not allowed to drive. This takes away the independence and freedom of women.”

Andrea peer, “Global poverty: Facts, Faqs, and how to help”, August 23, 2021, https://www.worldvision.org/sponsorship-news-stories/global-poverty-facts

In this magazine article author Andrea tells about how people live in poverty, and how they face so many problems in their life. COVID-19 pandemic threatens to reverse years of progress in the fight against global poverty and income inequalities and so children see ‘black shadow’ in their future. In the pandemic 97 million people went into extreme poverty and it could impact global poverty 2021. Children’s health and well-being improve when they move from poverty. Under the age of 5 children are dying because of poverty, hunger, and disease. Author also gave some facts about global poverty which are: 

• About 70% of people older than 15 who live in extreme poverty have no schooling or only some basic education.
• Although countries impacted by fragility, crises, and violence are home to about 10% of the world’s population, they account for more than 40% of people living in extreme poverty. By 2030, an estimated 67% of the world’s poor will live in fragile contexts.
• 644 million children are experiencing multidimensional poverty.

Author describes three kinds of poverty which are absolute, relative and multidimensional poverty. He includes so many things that can cause poverty which are water, food, shelter, education, or healthcare. Inequities including gender or ethnic discrimination, poor governance, conflict, exploitation, and domestic violence also cause poverty. 

I agree with the author and about his explanation because in this article he explained about reality. He explained how people live in poverty, how they don’t get enough opportunity, inequality, and children have to lose their career. “Living in poverty also means not being able to afford a doctor or medical treatment. It means no electricity, limited shelter, and often little to no food on the table. For young children, improper nutrition can mean stunting and wasting that permanently impact their development. In impoverished countries where many people lack access to clean water and sanitation, poverty means the spread of preventable diseases and the unnecessary death of children.” The article also includes helping global poverty and that can be improved less poverty but are people following or taking action to help global poverty? I would say the author shows us how their life is going and I now know about poverty. Also, you include how to help them I would follow and try to help them. This article connected to my research question because in this article explained how poverty influences people’s lives.

Author writing style is descriptive and expository because he describes the details about poverty, he explains a topic to readers and he describes people emotion, thoughts. Author tries to inform the audience about the reality of how people live and face so many problems living in poverty and also how to improve these problems. 

“Children living in poverty often lack access to quality education. Sometimes it’s because there aren’t enough quality schools, their parents cannot afford school fees, or because impoverished families need their children to work. Without a quality education, children grow up being unable to provide for their own children.”
