You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Incidents of Inequality

Introduction

Donald Trump has been in office for over two years now, and it’s safe to say that he’s had a mixed bag of results. On the one hand, we have tax reform that is expected to be financially beneficial for most Americans; on the other hand, we have racist immigration policies like separating families at the border or separating children from their parents at detention facilities; there are tax breaks for corporations but none for working people; there are proposals to privatize public education but no mention yet about what will happen if/when tuition increases due to inflation (which it will). And then there’s climate change where nothing seems more important than protecting coal jobs while burning more fossil fuels anyway possible just because Donald Trump told us so (you know who else did just that?).

The ruling against the Native Hawaiians

The ruling against Native Hawaiians was a blow to Native Hawaiians, but it also served as a warning for other indigenous people everywhere. In the United States, this decision could have far-reaching consequences for environmental laws and regulations that protect our planet. It’s also worth considering how the rulings will affect democracy—and whether or not our democracy is still intact after these recent events. Finally, it’s important to recognize that these decisions mark an important moment in time when our nation’s laws are being challenged by powerful forces outside of them (such as corporations).

The transgender ban

The transgender ban was announced by the Trump administration in 2017. It was put on hold by a federal judge and never implemented, but it still left an uneven impact on the transgender community. This is because many trans people rely on public bathrooms for their daily activities and feel that they cannot go anywhere safely if they don’t know where to go or what bathroom they should use. The court case challenging this policy is currently being fought out in courtrooms across America—and we’re hoping that more communities will join us in standing up against discrimination!

The Muslim ban

In the early hours of September 11th, 2001, President George W. Bush signed an executive order that banned all individuals from a list of countries from entering the United States. The ban included Iraq, Iran and Sudan; it also applied to people with valid visas who were unable to leave the US upon their arrival or departure.

The ban affected thousands of families who had fled war-torn regions in search of safety for themselves and their loved ones. Many refugees had fled countries such as Syria where they faced persecution at home due to their religion or ethnicity—and then found themselves stranded when trying to return there after spending years abroad in refugee camps overseas seeking asylum from potential genocide at home (see this article).

DACA rescinded

DACA was rescinded in September 2017.

DACA recipients are called Dreamers, and they’re not criminals or terrorists: they were brought to the U.S. as children by their parents who had immigrated illegally from Mexico or other countries. They grew up here, attending school and learning English; many went on to serve in the military, including some who were wounded fighting for our country overseas during times of war (and then returned home). The only reason why someone could be deported from the United States is if that person committed a serious crime—and even then, they’d have their chance at applying again through resettlement programs like Immigrant Legal Resource Center’s Family Unity Project or Catholic Charities New England’s Refugee Resettlement Program (more info on those programs below).

In addition to being protected under federal law itself protecting undocumented immigrants with temporary status under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), it’s important not just because these young people are still affected by its end but also because this decision sends a message across America about what kind of values we want our country represented by: one where anyone who wants safety should feel welcome here even if they don’t have papers; one where everyone has access equal opportunity regardless race ethnicity gender religion beliefs sexual orientation backgrounds etcetera

Ending Temporary Protected Status for hundreds of thousands immigrants

The Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program was created in 1990 to protect people from war or natural disasters, allowing them to remain in the United States. There are currently about 300,000 TPS beneficiaries who have been protected by the U.S. government since 1995 because they have been needed for humanitarian reasons and cannot return home safely.

For example, after Hurricane Mitch devastated Nicaragua in 1998, over 80% of its population was displaced and an estimated 50,000 people were killed or injured as a result of the storm. After Hurricane Katrina ravaged Haiti in 2010, another 100 miles were destroyed and 300 people died due to flooding caused by heavy rains during that year’s hurricane season that swept through southern Florida before making landfall near Cuba as Category 5 winds roared across Hispaniola (the island shared between Haiti and Cuba).

In addition to these two examples we also have several other countries that were affected by some type of disaster while they had TPS status: El Salvador (1991-1994), Honduras (1999-2004), Nepal/ Bhutan earthquakes 2012 etc…

Increased detention and deportation of immigrants

The Trump administration has made it clear that they want to increase the number of immigrants detained and deported. In 2017, ICE arrested nearly 44,000 people in the United States—an increase of 20 percent from 2016. Most were held at a family residential center (FCRC) or other detention center operated by either private prison companies or Government Services Administration (GSA).

The FCRCs are run by contractors who have been paid millions of dollars by the Department of Homeland Security to house detainees on behalf of ICE. They’re often privately owned facilities with little oversight from local officials or even from other government agencies like HUD or IRS—meaning that residents are not only subject to arbitrary detention but also exploitation for profit.

Child separation of families

In this section, you will learn about:

• The separation of children from their parents at the border.

• The detention of children in cages.

• The sending of children to foster homes and shelters.

In addition to learning about these events, you will also be introduced to other ways in which inequality affects people today.

Immigrant children in cages at border facilities

If you aren’t white, male or wealthy, Trump’s policies have been pretty terrible. The detention of children at the border is a human rights violation and an outrage that must end.

ICE raids increasing around the country

In the past year, ICE has increased its enforcement efforts around the country. These raids target immigrant communities and individuals who appear to be immigrants or look like they might be immigrants. They also target people who sound like they might be immigrants or could pass as such in a place where there aren’t many non-English speakers.

Attacks on black women in power – Omar, Tlaib, Pressley, Ocasio-Cortez

Trump has attacked black women in power.

Omar, Tlaib and Pressley are all Muslim.

Ocasio-Cortez is a Democrat and is Jewish. This makes her the first Jewish woman elected to Congress (and she’s also Puerto Rican).

Trump’s policies have been terrible for people who aren’t white, men or wealthy.

Trump’s policies have been terrible for people who aren’t white, men or wealthy.

Trump’s administration has been marked by an unprecedented level of inequality — and it’s not just the kind that comes with a big paycheck and fancy office space. The president himself has repeatedly attacked people based on their race, gender and sexuality; he appointed cabinet members who have openly expressed racist views; his White House is stacked with billionaires who enrich themselves at the expense of working families; he has allowed corporations to pollute our air and water so badly that scientists are sounding alarms about climate change; he wants to privatize public education so students will be forced into debt slavery until they die (or until they can pay off their loans); he plans on cutting food stamps even further than previous administrations did over the past few decades…the list goes on!

These policies harm everyone except those who benefit from them directly: wealthy CEOs like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos; white men like Steve Bannon—who believes “America First” means putting his own interests above those of any other group regardless of whether they’re part of our community here at home or abroad in nations where we may have diplomatic relations with such government officials…

Conclusion

We hope you’ve been inspired by these examples to fight for justice in your own community. If you have any questions or would like more information about how we can help, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
