When does poverty end.

 Did you know that, “as of 2021, 1.3 billion people suffer from poverty world wide? ‘“  Why is it that, people work 40hrs, 7 days a week and still seem to fall below the poverty line. We live in such a well resourced world, especially in well developed countries, why don’t they help those less developed countries, with reallocation of resources. Helping smaller countries, with modernization and growing should be a human right.

    There are many consequences of resources not being equitably distributed. This is a direct violation of, refusing to help. The UDHR says that equal freedom, but “First world countries” have more than enough resources, we choose to keep them. So many countries are falling behind due to “Political Suicde” “Military Coups” and “Assassinations”.  We can help, looking back at the OXFAM foreign aid guide, we can see what comes out of helping those smaller countries. Some consequences to not helping these countries, is destabilization of countries; destabilization of that countries government and the fall of that region.



    If countries share their resources, there are many benefits to the world at large. Some things include, better diplomacy, stronger relations in the region, stable and sustainable governments.   Some ideas of ways this could be fulfilled, is that we can give foreign aid to countries, we can send diplomats, and start coalition’s.




    There are 195 “First world countries, 2 of which are ‘observer states the Holy See and the state of palestine’ “  Some of these countries are fully devolved and others are on the way to full development, if we send resources to the ‘second world countries’ we can help them get to the same level of modernization as us. “



    In the end, we have so many reasons as to why so many people suffer from poverty, but we do have many ways to help, we have the 195 countries, who are devolved, we have the OXFAM foreign aid guide, and we have our own diplomacy. How can you help? Get out, use your voice and show the world others voices matte.

Heroe's Journey: From Kamala Harris to T'Challa

In the final unit of my Humanities class, "Stories," we delved into the Hero's Journey, exploring how both real and fictional heroes undergo transformative journeys that shape them and leave lasting impacts. Our focus was on understanding how different art forms narrate these journeys and the unique ways in which we each walk our own Hero’s Journey. We watched  The Goonies , visited the American Writers Museum, and explored the colorful "Ofrendas" at the National Museum of Mexican Art, each of these experiences giving us fresh perspectives on storytelling. The exhibit "Our Stories, Our Voices" at the Field Museum stood out to me personally, providing a powerful look at personal histories and identities. For my Action Project, I chose to map out the journeys of two heroes who have profoundly inspired me: Vice President Kamala Harris and T’Challa, the Black Panther. Below, you’ll see a collage showcasing the paths of these two icons who represent courage...

Redefining Queenship: Gender, Power, and Ambition in Shakespeare's Macbeth

Welcome to my blog,  In our first Drama unit, we tackled the question,  "How do we respond to gender norms and stereotypes?"  To explore this, we dove into the works of William Shakespeare, examining how theater can inspire social change. We focused on  Macbeth , using the play as a lens to question traditional gender roles and the evolving concept of what it means to be a queen. This was the perfect foundation for the unit, letting us dig deeper into our own ideas of strength and duty. To me, a queen is someone who puts her role before herself, making difficult choices—even ones that might be considered morally complex. While we didn’t have many field trips, we had inspiring guest speakers. Regina Taylor, known for her role as Michelle Obama's mother in  The First Lady  and her work in  Lovecraft Country , shared her insights on how storytelling can bridge divides of race, gender, and class. She likened the influence of media to the civil rights movem...

Plagues - How deadly are they?

Welcome to My Blog on Disease! In this unit of my STEAM course,  Disease , we dove into the classification and impact of diseases—learning about endemics, sporadic cases, epidemics, pandemics, and more. We explored methods to combat these threats, starting with a Model UN simulation on handling a zombie apocalypse, where I represented the UK. Though my country survived, we ended up in massive debt, a clear reminder of the challenges leaders face even with ample resources. For our Action Project, we each selected a disease and researched a specific historical outbreak. The task was to create a newspaper article explaining the disease's spread, impact, and prevention measures. I chose to focus on the Bubonic Plague and crafted a news story to communicate what caused its devastating outbreak, how it was controlled, and how similar outbreaks can be prevented today. Through this project, I discovered fascinating details about the Black Plague’s deadly rampage across Europe in the 1300s....
