Social Inequality Today

Inequality is an enemy of human dignity and progress. Inequality exists in a full range of forms in all societies across the world. The most serious forms include racial/ethnic inequality, income inequality, gender inequality, healthcare access inequality, and age inequality, but there also exist a vast array or other forms of inequality. Needless to say, more effort is needed to help overcome or at least reduce/minimize inequality in our society. This is the motivation behind Social Inequality Today, an organization dedicated to informing the public of evils of social inequality in all its ugly forms. We are composed of students in middle/high schools and colleges, so we know that our efforts are limited. But we also believe that doing something is infinitely better than doing nothing. So we hope that our efforts can contribute to society in meaningful ways, and we invite other like-minded students to join us in our efforts. Please contact us at admin@socialinequalitytoday.org. We look forward to hearing from you!
