How do my Privileges Affect the Way I See the WorldI have privileges that not all the person in the world have, this privileges that are going to be said in this work, but the real question is how those my privileges change the way I see the world, the conflicts, hunger, etc.         My social class is middle class, that means that I don’t, well my family doesn’t have a lot of money but we have all the necessary and even more than what we actually need to live, I go to private school, my parents have a good job both of them, I don’t suffer from hunger, I speak three languages and I live in very good condition comparing to poor people. How these things can affect the way I see the world?        Hunger is one or maybe the biggest problem in the world affecting 795 million people in the world today, I actually know this problem and I know its     malnutrition is the number one risk to health in the world and it is mostly affecting children, even that in the world there is enough food for all the people, rich people or people that never suffer from hunger doesn’t appreciate the importance of food, actually I’m included, we sometimes through away a lot of food that we never eat or that we don’t want more and we never think about people with the need of food about all the people in the world that died because of hunger so we just threw it away without thinking about that.  This is why almost all of the person that have almost the same privileges as I don’t know how real poverty is until you see it and most of those persons have not seen it yet so they are no so worry about this problem cause they don’t suffer it, but actually I m worried about those problems
even though I will not eradicate those problems I can help by donating clothes, toys, and many thing more to the people that need it this will not end poverty but it is something that if all the people did it, maybe it will eradicate this problem.        There is also another big problem that is racism I have the privilege of having racial privilege my skin color even though I don’t want to admit it influence in a lot of things, for example the people with dark skin have less possibility’s of having a job and the suffer from racism.  From my point of view there is a lot of discrimination and racism all around the world, it is not just racism for people with dark skin; but also to Arabs, Latin American people, religious groups, etc.  For example: in the united states there are many people how search for jobs and they don’t get it because they may be Arabs and they are considered for many people terrorists. This is not something just something that happens in the United States, but all around de world, there are more other examples of discriminations in the world and with this we can see that the way that we are educated change our point of view of people of different races. This is something that we should be worried about because we all have the same rights, we all are from the same human race and we need to respect every single person in the world.
