It's interesting that one of the synonym
words for
inequality is imbalance.
Time to get things more balanced?
Nobel peace prize winner Malala &
actress Emma Watson
are two strong and inspiring women
addressing
this imbalance and taking part in the
change.
As Malala commented on winning the peace
prize:
"My message to all children: stand up
for your rights.
This award is for you"
Malala is not only talking for girls &
women.
She wants education for everyone.
Equal right for every human being.
Whenever we think about or talk about
inequality
we are most likely to address it as
inequality between the sexes.
And we all know that the feminist fight has
become a
"negatively" loaded word.
As the actress Emma Watson talks about it
in her speech
for the UN and the solidarity movement
"He for She"
it is important
and even depending on everyone,
both men & women, boys & girls
to take action!
If you have yet to hear her important
speech you can find it her:
&
the "He for She" Campaign video
here:
We are all responsible to act up and
contribute to a more
balanced world.
To even out the inequalities
between rich & poor.
To balance the inequalities between the
people in power & those without.
Every voice should be heard.
Blog Action Day is a great initiative to
make
awareness, engage and address
issues that needs to get more focus,
and hopefully not only today,
but that we take action whenever we have to
possibility
to be part of the change for a
more balanced & better world for
everyone.
So we are ending todays
blogpost with
more words from Malala:
"This is not the end of this
campaign; this is only the beginning. I want to see every child going to
school."
