Hello everyone, my name is Jessie Tia and
-
I'm the contestant to the social
sciences scholarship.
-
You guys wanna introduce yourself?
-
>> Hi, my name is Emily Monroe and
I am a friend of
-
Jessie Hello,
my name is Josephine whites and
-
I'm a friend of GC also
a member of SSV committees.
-
>> So today I'm going to be
discussing with Anna Lee and
-
Josep
>> The new cultural
-
gap that has been occurring lately
even though it has been going on for
-
a while, it's been more predominant
over the past couple months to a year.
-
So I just wanted to take
you ladies opinions
-
on what do you think has been happening
with our Society in our culture,
-
there we have been experiencing this
cultural gap in our society where there
-
has been we versus they and
a lot of separation basically.
-
So any ideas why this is happening why
people have been feeling that Well,
-
a big one has to be the Black Lives Matter
movement which has been occurring for
-
since the beginning of year I believe.
-
And the purpose of this
was to demonstrate that
-
certain type of wives is Being targeted
and a lot of people don't see it that way.
-
And that's kind of like what's kind of
splitting us up which is like the gap that
-
I could say because it is
something that is occurring and
-
it's still occurring because there's
people protesting still there's still
-
people who are on social media
saying that this is happening.
-
This is happening.
-
But others believe that it's not a huge
issue that it's not something that we
-
should pay attention to because obviously
with the elections crew now they wanna
-
focus on that but the Black Lives Matter
movement has to deal with the elections
-
and that's like a huge issue that many
of the candidates are talking about,
-
and with, with their own views everyone
the right with their own opinion
-
It's kind of like splitting us up
because we should like be united and
-
be able to be friends no
matter what political view,
-
no matter what gender, race,
or sexuality you have.
-
It's all about being united, but
right now, it's what's keeping us apart.
-
My opinion.
-
>> Right, right.
-
I agree with you that Lot
of things socially like
-
race,religion,sexuality.Ethnicities even
has been like
-
impacting our culture and our society
greatly and it's causing that gap and
-
it sucks because We're all the same
at one point like we're all human.
-
So just so awful to see that that's
causing an issue in our society.
-
Josephine, do you have anything to add?
-
>> Yeah
>> Like,
-
I totally agree with what analysts say.
-
And I also think that we have to
talk about it like first we have to
-
talk about it.
-
And second,
I think like we have to accept it because.
-
>> When we don't accept it is
when labdoo problem comes from.
-
We have to accept that there
is no equality, in gender,
-
in race, in sexuality, as you said.
-
And the third I think we have to educate,
ourselves.
-
educate people who don't know educate
people who don't understand, so
-
that we can all together,
find solution and.
-
Become friends.
-
>> Yes.
>> Right be the loving human so
-
we're supposed to be.
-
>> Exactly this.
-
We're gonna bring this brings up my
second question is how can we so
-
how can we change these issues
in our current society?
-
How can we start with us?
-
What are different ways that we can.
-
>> Do good in the world.
-
How can we stop that gap?
-
Do you guys have any ideas?
-
>> I feel like what Josephine
said is like acknowledging it and
-
accepting what is occurring.
-
And not Fighting or
-
like arguing, like, calling each other
names is not the step that we should take.
-
Be like the step that we should take is,
you know, becoming friends, no matter
-
like, no matter what and like accepting
each other to be like a first good step.
-
What do you think?
-
Yeah, she brought up a really good point
that I like She should communicate,
-
communicate your ideas,
your thoughts, your worries, and
-
say to the right people,
people that are gonna help you,
-
people that can reach out to others and
bring you help.
-
I specifically chose the both
of you to discuss this because
-
we are a part of the arts and culture
team with Seminole State volunteers.
-
SSV like Josephine said in
her in her introduction and.
-
I feel like this is great because we
are starting something different as this
-
SSV arts and culture team, we can adjust
this gap we can address this gap in our
-
events in our even in our like
motto that we are going to talk
-
a lot is to end this gap by communicating
with others reaching out with.
-
Others volunteering.
-
So I just want to thank you guys because
this has opened our eyes so much and
-
I hope I opened my eyes and
I hope it opened your eyes.
-
If we could bring a change
in the world then definitely
-
start incorporating that
into my personal life and
-
even try to reach out to others and
see if it It has been impacting.
-
Cool.
-
Thank you.
>> Thank you.
-
>> Thank you.
