Is there true friendship between unequal people?

In my view, true friendship can exist even between non-equals. Human beings are created in a manner that they cannot exist without true friendship. Different individuals are created differently. We all have a specific kind of quality that we are always looking for in the friendship we are looking for. What one might see in another who they consider as a friend is totally different from what another person might be looking for when looking for a friend elsewhere. It is possible for someone to have a true friend who is from a different race, education background, social class, political affiliation or economic background. The ...

It is surprising that even though expanded polystyrene is so abundant, it is not recycled as much as the other plastics. Expanded polystyrene makes the containers that hold our foods, used as packaging material, used to provide insulation in our homes. Yet, expanded polystyrene is not recycled more. In my opinion, this has to do with the structure of polystyrene. Part of why polystyrene is not recycled more is because it is so light in weight. It makes up only 0.01% of total municipal solid wastes in terms of weight.

Impacts of Gender, Racial, Ethnicity, Class, and Sexual Orientation Stereotypes

Introduction
Equality is essential to the development of any nation. In fact, lack thereof compromises the possibilities of social and economic growth due to the prevalence of discrimination.

According to Ward and Monica (128), the impacts of these stereotypes are demoralizing, and the affected groups feel unappreciated. For instance, the UK Feminista (2016) ...

Published in 1984, Audre Lorde’s article argues in favor of a unified feminist movement, which does not ignore the differences among the experiences of women belonging to different groups, but rather, it uses those differences to examine the different ways in which women are oppressed, and the ways in which those differences contribute to enriched creativity.
