What's New
The first picture depicts inequality. It shows us how the world are being dominated by poor people as
weighing more than that someone on the other side which represents the wealth community. This kind of
inequality reminds us how wide the population of unfortunate people and how it continues to grow with the
passing of time.
The second picture depicts political inequities based on the symbol used. The unequal ability to access
governmental resources and shows unequal political participation.
The third picture evidently shows how indifferent they are with other people. This indicates that they
are the unprivilege one, that they are not on the same level  with other people, so they are forced to worked
hard even if one is still a child in order to live.

Write a two-stanza poem in free verse about your suggestion on how to address social inequality during this COVID_19 pandemic.

Space that we need, lives of them— also matter.
Issues spotlight of heed— people feel smaller.
