The Thing Persecute Does

Norman Mineta is the person who disagreed of Racial profiling. This was a government's policy after 9.11 to tighten the inspection of the Arab and Islamic people in the airport security system.  The general director of protecting the sky saying this acquired large backlash by people in America. But Norman Mineta claimed "Not all the Arabs are terrorist and being Arab doesn't mean being a terrorist. Turn one's wrath against Arabs is not the thing we should.". This concept was based on his experience. 


During World War two, Norman Mineta lived in America. And in that time, America made a concentration camp for Japanese and Norman Mineta lived in Heart Mountain Relocation Center  until the war ended. All the Japanese are sent away to the concentration cam which was placed far away from the town. From this experience Mineta thought this shouldn't happen again. He never sell out his will. He didn't want to let this happen again.


He fought for his own will and for eliminating persecute. Of course if some thing happens in our own country and the criminal was from other country, you might be scared of that country's people. But that doesn't mean you can persecute them. Every human has same authority and no one can change it. What ever the reason is people shouldn't discriminate each other, they should respect each other and that makes the society work.


Additionally it is important to fought for because persecuting people will destroy their cultures and it is too late when you notice it. In Japan, people lived in the Middle island persecute people lived in North island who were called Emishi. They started a war and killed people and that destroyed lots of specific culture that they had. Now in Japan people are trying to figure out about their culture but many of them were gone by the war. Persecuting people will effect the future.


But if you didn't reflect enough with your will it will be just a applesauce, that doesn't make sense. You have to think carefully without any of your emotion and think from third party's view. 


Norman Mineta told us how important fought for your own will and eliminate the persecute. If he didn't act up to his will maybe the Racial Profiling was actually started. By knowing Norman Mineta, i thought I want to be a person who can act up to my own will. But it should be after you reflected enough. Other wise it will be just a applesauce.

Think Individually

 Norman Mineta claimed,  "."
Norman Mineta was trying to tell people discrimination won't make anything good only makes sadness and anger in people's heart. He thought not making discrimination is worth being fought for. 


Fair society is important to fight for because discrimination wan't make something better. There were no example that discrimination made something better, it just caused a war or made something terrible happen. During the World War 2 German made a concentration camp to put all the Jews in their, Japan occupied Korea and made people what the government wanted to do and America made Japanese interment for those who lived in America during the war, but they didn't made a concentration camp for Germans. Even from much older age still had discrimination, European used people of South America as a slave. In many years people were discriminated by their looks and their religions. Then what does fair society allows us? It allows us to have human rights and that allows us to have choices. Think about a society is not fair and all your actions were constraint. You can't choose a job that you want, you have to pay extra fee to ride a plane. If those came from discrimination, you will think it is an fair. So to live as how you want fair society is be absolutely imperative.    


Additionally it is important to fight for because with out a fair, no one will get any advantage and the world will not work. Even the society won't work. How can the society work with out many kind of people are not allowed to do what they want. Every single job has to have workers and with out those job, our life won't be managed. If people few people were not allowed to chose their job, they won't feel content, and because of that if the people sop working, the world won't work at all. Oppressed people will insurgence at some future day. In old time Japan, people were divided in classes and because of this farmers and merchants who had aggrievement rise in a riot. 


Many people fought for a fair world but still there are discrimination. One people can't make a big change. But if each person tried, it will make some change in world. Individually we have to think about the problem and have to have a solution in our mind. Only keeping it in our mind is still better than having nothing. Now, we have internet to know, communicate and have discussions. We have to use that and make sure we don't do discrimination by ourselves. I think most important thing to make the world fair is to think and know by individually.
