Global Perspectives

    The first issue I was presented with was one of poverty and homelessness. Many points and examples were made and many views giving. I feel less alone in the passion for equality among human beings. After all, we are here with the same mutual goal which is to survive and thrive in this world. Why not help each other out and build a stronger community at the same time. I began to recognize a theme of universal equality and relief  by the time I attended the second Global Perspectives presentation. The second presentation was a short film following an organization helping refugees escape from hostile countries. In a way this reminded me of a small neighborhood were neighbors help one another out and open their homes. The only difference is that helping refugees is on a massive scale, instead of neighboring homes it is an entire country lending a hand to help the world's people become safe once again.This gives me hope that one day, eventually, the human race can accept peace and understanding.

   Both of these presentations coincide with my overall goal of achieving a point of equilibrium in the world. An equilibrium with humans and its food resources (getting rid of food insecurities) and with cultures colliding. As a whole human beings have worked together to achieve greatness. I believe if we can come together and create a program for refugees or even come together to build an international space station for example, we can most definitely put the brakes on hunger in America as well as other issues.
