Name: Isabela Silverio <br />Honorable Mention <br />RAMS 7th Grade <br />Teacher: Ms., Kerry Gamble <br />Human Rights Essav <br />Have you ever got treated unfairly because of your race, religion, culture, nationality, <br />money conditions, or any other characteristics that you have? Do you know how it feels? <br />Racism, discrimination, has you ever felt that? Yes, it does hurt. I felt that and I know <br />how bad it can feel, so why people keep doing it? What is wrong to be different? So in <br />this essay I decided to focus in one article, which is Freedoms from Discrimination, <br />number two, from, CRC (The Convention of Right of a Child). <br />Freedom from discrimination is important for me because I think nobody should be <br />treated unfairly on any basis, in any conditions, independent of anything. And this affect <br />me a lot because, sometimes people think just because I am an immigrant I should not <br />have the same rights, I shouldn't go to the same school as them, I shouldn't go to the <br />same doctor as them, I shouldn't live in thee same place as them, and my parents <br />shouldn't have the same work as theirs, and why? Just because I have a different <br />nationality. <br />And just not affect me, affect millions of people, especially immigrants, because some <br />of them don't even know their rights. If you don't know your rights, how are you going <br />to "shout" for them? <br />Do you know that children of illegal immigrants can't study after high school? Just <br />because they are here (in U.S.A) with out a little paper called VISA, they are not consider <br />citizen, (even if they have been living here since they were babies). So they will not <br />finish their education, and in consequence will not get a good job, not have a good life <br />condition and give one for their family. So how are they supposed to move back to their <br />P43 <br />
