SOCIAL INJUSTICE

RESOLUTIONS

In your previous module, you learned how to judge the relevance and worth of ideas, soundness of authors reason, and the effectiveness of the presentation. This time, you will study on reacting to lay value judgement on critical issues that demand sound analysis and call prompt actions. Task: Thinking Critically Think about the colors brown and white. Answer the questions that follow critically.

1. As two of the skin colors, what color do you choose? 2. What prompted you to choose it? 3. If you have two friends and one is brown-skinned and the other is white-skinned, do you think one friend is better than the other because he/she has lighter skin or vice-versa? 4. What would you think your friend feel about it if you prefer one from the other because of his/her skin color? 5. Do you think your friends ' skin colors matter to you? Why or why not?

There are many critical issues that our world is facing. In this lesson let us focus our attention to one. No matter how much we deny, discrimination is omnipresent. It can be found in every corner of the world.

According to Anna Freud of National Centre for Children and Families, discrimination is when a person is treated unfairly because of who they are, this can have a detrimental effect on their mental health, their self-esteem and educational performance. Disability, age discrimination, race, skin color and sex, religious discrimination, gender identity, place of birth and status as a parent etc., are one of the many critical situations that can lead to discrimination which cannot be undone but can be minimized through learning to be responsible on making value judgements. It is important to understand what value judgement is. Value judgement is a judgement of the rightness or wrongness of something, or someone based on a comparison or other relativity or of the usefulness of something or someone. It does not simply describe the world; they prescribe certain attitudes or behaviors toward the world. It is based more on perceptual understanding on a certain issue; a claim that a particular human action or object has some degree of importance, worth or desirability. Let’s take a look on these examples: DISCRIMINATION

VALUE JUDGEMENTS

1. The employer strictly imposes 1. The company must offer a fair that only younger employees can be promotion to all employees promoted. regardless of the age. Age should not be the basis for promotion. 2. Seafarers who lost their hands/feet during work hours will be given benefits but will lose their jobs forever.

2. MARINA should take care and offer alternative jobs to those seafarers who become disabled because of their work.

3. Most of the airlines worldwide, do 3. We consider moles as part of the not accept flight attendants who body and not an imperfection. It has have moles in the face. nothing to do with the job. One way to get a quick handle on the nature of value judgement is to see that any statement of fact can easily be converted into valuable judgement by introducing a value term; DESCRIPTIVE and NORMATIVE. Descriptive Statement is just what you think it is. It describes a situation. It simply tells us/ what is the case. On the other hand, Normative Statement is a claim about something should be.

Examples of Descriptive Statements: 1. The mug of coffee in front of me is now at room temperature. 2. I had a toast and eggs for breakfast this morning. 3. Kevin is under six feet tall. They are all descriptive statements. They make no value judgement. They are stating something what they had seen or experienced. Examples of Normative Statements: 1. If you wanted to pass the test you should have studied harder. 2. "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, is a better movie than Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace." 3. If an employer finds that older people are underrepresented in their workplace, they can state in recruitment adverts that older people are welcome to apply.

4. President Bush did his best to defend the country from terrorism, I thin k he deserves more respect.

Each of them expresses a value judgement. They are considered as normative statements. Things to consider before making a value judgement: 1. Think and analyze the situation before giving your perceptual understanding. 2. Give your value judgements without bias. 3. Before giving statements, always put yourself on the situation they are in and speak your side as if like you are one of the persons involved in the issue. 4. Reflect!!! 5. Speak with a concerned heart to avoid negative criticisms.
