Lack of Healthcare For Low Income Makers
Dallas, a glamoring city on the outside however, isn’t the same on the inside. The city lacks much needed citizens benefits and needs, including the very crucial area of healthcare. Many of Dallas’s lower tier citizens don’t get any benefits at all. Companies don’t have to pay money to them while they are sick and healthcare insurance is as expensive as ever for them despite their low incomes causing them to sink deeper and deeper into poverty.
Working Hard has a Limit
Working hard has a limit, and going over the limit may lead to consequences. In Dallas, and all over the world, “Overtraining” is a huge problem. We all may believe and be brainwashed into thinking that there is never an end to working hard. However, working hard has a limit, and pushing yourself too much is not the right path to go. Every person MUST work hard, but only to your body’s capability.
LGBTQ Equality in Marriage and Adoption
Every person and couple on Earth should have the have rights, adopt children, and walk in public together without fear or discrimination. Unfortunately, this is not true for everyone.

Homelessness in Dallas
Did you know that Dallas has the greatest amount of homeless people in all of Texas?

What the Media Doesn’t Tell You About Black Protests
There are peaceful protests all around the world. Protesters of all colors peacefully protesting the loss of all black lives due to police brutality. But that’s not it, not all police oppose this. In many cities police support the blavk lives matter movement. Police are not the root of the problem, it’s the people. People who refuse to acknowledge people who are different and that is what we should eb fighting, not each other. The simple idea that different is bad. #Blacklives matter✊🏿 please don’t continue to turn your head.
When You’re Running for Your Life
As the world is changing, violence is erupting and impacting young kids.

Mandatory Minimums: The Cruel Truth About Our Society
Did you know that certain crimes, if proveable require a certain amount of penance no negotiation? Some of them including possession of drugs and child pornography ranging from 5-40 years. You may think this is a reasonable punishment, but what if I told you that sometimes those who are convicted don’t have an opportunity to appeal in a court due to this federal law?
Deserts? In Dallas?
Sometimes many of us would rather settle for a greasy burger and some fries instead of the healthy home-cooked meals some of us are fortunate enough to get. However, there are full communities of people right here in Dallas who don’t have access to nutritious food, and they are as a result at risk of health, mental, and academic problems.
Justice for Former Juveniles
Former juveniles have served their time, so why keep punishing them? Former delinquents have a history of being denied jobs and proper housing even after time has been served. As a result delinquents continue to find themselves in jail well into adulthood. Recognize juveniles as people, not bad people, not a harmful object, just a person. A colleague, someone who sits next to you on the bus.
