control travel, international communication, public assembly, standards of education and the <br />demographics in certain occupational fields. This blatant discrimination has been decreed as unjust on a <br />state, national and international scale, being denounced in the core of the Minnesota Human Rights Act, <br />Amendment Iv of the Bill of Rights, and Article 30 of the UDI- R, which says "...no society, no human <br />beings should act in such a way as to destroy the hrights which you have just been readin g about" . <br />Even though our law and policy is no longer blatantly discriminatory, the public attitude often overrules <br />and our mindset is prejudiced. <br />This discrimination and fear is overwhelming our society and controlling our behaviors. In order <br />to fix our mistakes we must change the instinctual reactions, and lead people to recognize the similarities <br />between `them" and "us ". when we impose stereotypes on people we deny them' their right of <br />individuality, and limit their ability to develop into a full and complete member of society. As Article 29 <br />of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states, "The law should guarantee human rights. It should, <br />allow everyone to respect others and be respected." In Minnesota the people that enforce these laws <br />prevent us from moving forward. only when all people can see one another as an individuals, free of <br />stereotypes and group prejudices, will we achieve equality under the law and the society that all people <br />deserve. <br />
