Argument 3 Equality Text

If people had the same morals, then people would feel equal

We started the process by looking for poems of equality. Though we did not really want to use a poem because we already used two of them, but we decided to have a look anyway. We did not find any good poems so we went back to the FPeight website and looked at the types of text we could use. By then Mariana and Emma had an idea. We looked at the fairytale of Brave and then we realized it was a movie so we looked for articles about the movie. We did not find any because all the articles talked about gender equality and we wanted to talk about equality in general. Then we went back to the website and we saw that we could use a mathematical term and Mariana had an idea. Since we were talking about inequalities in math Mariana thought we could apply that to this project. We looked on google but we thought that was to small and did not explain anything. So, Mariana and Emma went to the whiteboard and drew the symbol and saw what we could draw on both sides that would explain it better. Emma suggested that we draw a king and next to it we draw an equal sign but Mariana adjusted her idea and put the king in front of the symbol with he greater than sign and put regular people on the other side. Then Emma said that it did not really represent any text, so Aleksi and Paulis came up with the caption and modified the drawing so it would represent the image better.

We thought this image was good because it represents something totally the opposite but still got the message across. We discussed that this image represents a king who thinks he is better than everyone else and the people are less. We think that if we want to achieve peace we have to put an equal sign instead. The king should not feel greater he should feel the same. We think that one of the reasons he feels greater is because of his job and his importance of society. Even though the kingdoms people are not as important in society they should be treated equally. If it were not for them the king would not play such a big role in society. To relate this to peace we believe that in order to achieve a peaceful and equal world, people have to have the same morals. People should not be treated less or unequal, their voices should be heard and people should not treat them badly based on their impact on society. We are not saying that people are not allowed to be more important then others but they should be treated the same. Workers or kings, we believe if they want their "kingdom" to achieve peace then they all have to be treated equally.
