Everyone makes the stereotype that Americans are only those who look and speak like <br />White people. It is discriminating those who do not look or speak like that. It is also offending <br />their race, skin color, and national origin, which is against the Human Rights Article 2 and the <br />Minnesota Human Rights Act. <br />Another stereotype made frequently is that the poor are less valuable as a person than those <br />who are rich, I will tell you they are completely wrong. How much money you have or how <br />much you own will never determine how valuable you are as a person.

For them, having to work hard and not -getting paid enough is extremely a big deal, <br />Even though there are many organizations that benefit the poor in the United States, because of <br />The stereotype that the poor are less valuable as a person than the rich, most of the society is still <br />turning their backs to those who are poor. Article 1 in the Universal Declaration of Human <br />Rights says that when children are born they are free and each should be treated in the same way; <br />
