Slavery Footprint (ES-7)




 Points: 5

The Slavery Footprint test had me reconsidering everything I have ever bought. The idea of people and even children being force or enslaved to work in corrupted industries that don't pay fairly sets me off. People should no longer working in harsh conditions or not being paid for the work they actually applied for, it isn't humane and I'm glad that I took this quiz. This has brought me more awareness towards an issue that I rarely think or talk about during political discussions. I believe that I will try my best to avoid companies that follow these conditions or bring more awareness to the issue when it comes to civil discussions. If more people understood this issue then perhaps these companied would go out of business or there would be more voices in support of these workers being treated fairly in their work environment.

two TED talks on the same subject (SI-3)

 Points: 10  https://youtu.be/WyprXhvGVYk What are the most important moral problems of our time?  “I estimate we thereby saved over 60 million lives. Thats more lives saved than if we’d achieved world peace in the same time period”  https://youtu.be/Czg_9C7gw0o Is Social Media hurting your mental health?  “My life is social media: personality, professionally, and academically. If it was doing this to me? What is it doing to everyone else?”  Both of these TED talks speak around subject revolving around things that are social issues. We all have personally experienced with these two subjects and mine is just like any other. I began comparing myself to the concept and illusion that social media labeled to be beautiful. I have always been a taller girl with a wide back, rib cage, and broad shoulders. My body is more on the masculine side in my opinion and I began to compare myself to the women that are stereotypically depicted as beautiful. They are beautiful, but i DIDNT believe

Registered Voter (DE-1)

Image
Points: 5 Registering to vote was probably a very important moment in my life, solely because it's a way for me to help make a change at my age. The registration process was quite easy to be completely honest, I was able to do it at my high school before the pandemic so I had teacher assistants guide me with any questions I had. I was nervous most of the time because I didn't want to get anything wrong, but I just made sure to double check with them. Filling out the form was understandable in my opinion and didn't need much documentation from what I remember, it was fast and simple.

Citizenship Test (DE-27)

Image
    Points: 5 Taking this test gave me a piece of what many people need to learn in order to become citizens. I personally believe that the questions presented to me along this quiz are fair, if they are remotely anything similar to the test people need to take for the real thing. As a student and child of a Spanish speaking father who has taken the test, I can understand that it could be difficult to completely understand a language that isn't your own. I believe that being considerate of participants is a factor to taking these tests and making sure they have the time to answer each one since most of them most likely are learning the language to prove themselves.
