Hello everyone, my name is Jessie Tia and

0:00:06.740,0:00:11.090
I'm the contestant to the social[br]sciences scholarship.

0:00:11.090,0:00:14.290
You guys wanna introduce yourself?

0:00:14.290,0:00:18.190
>> Hi, my name is Emily Monroe and[br]I am a friend of

0:00:18.190,0:00:23.160
Jessie Hello,[br]my name is Josephine whites and

0:00:23.160,0:00:27.590
I'm a friend of GC also[br]a member of SSV committees.

0:00:28.880,0:00:32.550
>> So today I'm going to be[br]discussing with Anna Lee and

0:00:32.550,0:00:35.570
Josep[br]>> The new cultural

0:00:35.570,0:00:39.410
gap that has been occurring lately[br]even though it has been going on for

0:00:39.410,0:00:45.070
a while, it's been more predominant[br]over the past couple months to a year.

0:00:45.070,0:00:47.980
So I just wanted to take[br]you ladies opinions

0:00:47.980,0:00:53.120
on what do you think has been happening[br]with our Society in our culture,

0:00:53.120,0:00:57.460
there we have been experiencing this[br]cultural gap in our society where there

0:00:57.460,0:01:03.150
has been we versus they and[br]a lot of separation basically.

0:01:03.150,0:01:08.940
So any ideas why this is happening why[br]people have been feeling that Well,

0:01:08.940,0:01:15.380
a big one has to be the Black Lives Matter[br]movement which has been occurring for

0:01:15.380,0:01:17.600
since the beginning of year I believe.

0:01:17.600,0:01:22.950
And the purpose of this[br]was to demonstrate that

0:01:22.950,0:01:30.300
certain type of wives is Being targeted[br]and a lot of people don't see it that way.

0:01:30.300,0:01:34.080
And that's kind of like what's kind of[br]splitting us up which is like the gap that

0:01:34.080,0:01:39.250
I could say because it is[br]something that is occurring and

0:01:39.250,0:01:42.250
it's still occurring because there's[br]people protesting still there's still

0:01:42.250,0:01:46.740
people who are on social media[br]saying that this is happening.

0:01:46.740,0:01:48.210
This is happening.

0:01:48.210,0:01:52.770
But others believe that it's not a huge[br]issue that it's not something that we

0:01:52.770,0:01:57.450
should pay attention to because obviously[br]with the elections crew now they wanna

0:01:57.450,0:02:02.420
focus on that but the Black Lives Matter[br]movement has to deal with the elections

0:02:02.420,0:02:07.570
and that's like a huge issue that many[br]of the candidates are talking about,

0:02:07.570,0:02:13.190
and with, with their own views everyone[br]the right with their own opinion

0:02:13.190,0:02:17.180
It's kind of like splitting us up[br]because we should like be united and

0:02:17.180,0:02:21.190
be able to be friends no[br]matter what political view,

0:02:21.190,0:02:25.950
no matter what gender, race,[br]or sexuality you have.

0:02:25.950,0:02:31.110
It's all about being united, but[br]right now, it's what's keeping us apart.

0:02:32.290,0:02:33.320
My opinion.

0:02:33.320,0:02:34.670
>> Right, right.

0:02:34.670,0:02:38.315
I agree with you that Lot[br]of things socially like

0:02:38.315,0:02:45.670
race,religion,sexuality.Ethnicities even[br]has been like

0:02:45.670,0:02:50.990
impacting our culture and our society[br]greatly and it's causing that gap and

0:02:50.990,0:02:56.890
it sucks because We're all the same[br]at one point like we're all human.

0:02:56.890,0:03:02.920
So just so awful to see that that's[br]causing an issue in our society.

0:03:02.920,0:03:05.400
Josephine, do you have anything to add?

0:03:05.400,0:03:06.345
>> Yeah[br]>> Like,

0:03:06.345,0:03:09.695
I totally agree with what analysts say.

0:03:09.695,0:03:14.075
And I also think that we have to[br]talk about it like first we have to

0:03:14.075,0:03:15.395
talk about it.

0:03:15.395,0:03:19.082
And second,[br]I think like we have to accept it because.

0:03:19.082,0:03:22.572
>> When we don't accept it is[br]when labdoo problem comes from.

0:03:22.572,0:03:26.722
We have to accept that there[br]is no equality, in gender,

0:03:26.722,0:03:29.732
in race, in sexuality, as you said.

0:03:29.732,0:03:34.172
And the third I think we have to educate,[br]ourselves.

0:03:34.172,0:03:37.842
educate people who don't know educate[br]people who don't understand, so

0:03:37.842,0:03:40.852
that we can all together,[br]find solution and.

0:03:43.050,0:03:44.200
Become friends.

0:03:44.200,0:03:47.270
>> Yes.[br]>> Right be the loving human so

0:03:47.270,0:03:48.530
we're supposed to be.

0:03:48.530,0:03:49.700
>> Exactly this.

0:03:49.700,0:03:55.080
We're gonna bring this brings up my[br]second question is how can we so

0:03:55.080,0:03:58.480
how can we change these issues[br]in our current society?

0:03:58.480,0:04:00.900
How can we start with us?

0:04:00.900,0:04:02.300
What are different ways that we can.

0:04:03.630,0:04:05.680
>> Do good in the world.

0:04:05.680,0:04:07.400
How can we stop that gap?

0:04:07.400,0:04:08.810
Do you guys have any ideas?

0:04:12.000,0:04:15.480
>> I feel like what Josephine[br]said is like acknowledging it and

0:04:15.480,0:04:18.070
accepting what is occurring.

0:04:18.070,0:04:22.520
And not Fighting or

0:04:22.520,0:04:27.110
like arguing, like, calling each other[br]names is not the step that we should take.

0:04:27.110,0:04:33.780
Be like the step that we should take is,[br]you know, becoming friends, no matter

0:04:33.780,0:04:38.620
like, no matter what and like accepting[br]each other to be like a first good step.

0:04:38.620,0:04:41.080
What do you think?

0:04:41.080,0:04:45.300
Yeah, she brought up a really good point[br]that I like She should communicate,

0:04:46.300,0:04:50.810
communicate your ideas,[br]your thoughts, your worries, and

0:04:50.810,0:04:53.610
say to the right people,[br]people that are gonna help you,

0:04:53.610,0:04:57.250
people that can reach out to others and[br]bring you help.

0:04:58.250,0:05:02.980
I specifically chose the both[br]of you to discuss this because

0:05:02.980,0:05:06.820
we are a part of the arts and culture[br]team with Seminole State volunteers.

0:05:06.820,0:05:11.880
SSV like Josephine said in[br]her in her introduction and.

0:05:11.880,0:05:18.100
I feel like this is great because we[br]are starting something different as this

0:05:18.100,0:05:25.730
SSV arts and culture team, we can adjust[br]this gap we can address this gap in our

0:05:25.730,0:05:30.880
events in our even in our like[br]motto that we are going to talk

0:05:30.880,0:05:36.470
a lot is to end this gap by communicating[br]with others reaching out with.

0:05:36.470,0:05:38.750
Others volunteering.

0:05:38.750,0:05:43.580
So I just want to thank you guys because[br]this has opened our eyes so much and

0:05:43.580,0:05:47.710
I hope I opened my eyes and[br]I hope it opened your eyes.

0:05:47.710,0:05:51.300
If we could bring a change[br]in the world then definitely

0:05:51.300,0:05:54.010
start incorporating that[br]into my personal life and

0:05:54.010,0:05:58.030
even try to reach out to others and[br]see if it It has been impacting.

0:06:00.110,0:06:00.970
Cool.

0:06:00.970,0:06:02.650
Thank you.[br]>> Thank you.
