Discrimination

prejudice is something essential in the life cause we can't prejudice any one from face ,colour . 
stereotype also is not good like sexisim  before  we was see a lot of stereotype in the world but know no more of that . in the class we learn so anything about the isims like disability ,classism , sexism and a lot  each of them was talk about deferent idea my reflection about isms are improved cause i learned a lot of reflection about everything. 

yes I'm ready to stand up on discrimination  because it really bad .

disability


        

            disability  it will not stop the dream of the person himself. Frankie talked about her family because she wanted to send a message in other way that there is almost in each family there is a disability person and they still live in a good or a happy way. The most video I've really liked was about the physics scientists Stephen Hawking , the famous guy with the most brilliant brain is a disability person and he did a lot so as many people are learning from him . I do think that UAE is changing there attitudes . The government now are providing many ways to help the disability persons in many good safety ways.
