Homophobia is also a form of injustice by hating the sexual minority where one shows hatred towards bisexuals and transgender. Ageism is where people are discriminated due to their age and restraining them their constitutional rights. Below we discuss how we can overcome social injustices worldwide.

Poverty is one among the social injustices common in our society today. We find that there are filthy rich people in the world and the extremely poor people in our society.

To overcome these challenge, the leaders should come up long lasting solutions that will end drought thus the poor will not feel neglected.

Martin Luther Ling stated clearly that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice anywhere. Another injustice affecting the society is gender inequality. People view women as just objects. Due to this, rape takes often especially in India. It should be compulsory for everyone to treat women with respect and giving them rights to vote and let their voices heard. In countries where women are not appreciated, action should be taken against them.

Daily parents are dying due to various reasons. They leave behind children with no one taking care of them. This leads to them heading for the streets to seek safe haven. Others get admitted to childrens homes. Those left in the street start depending on well wishers.

You find that in most job application forms, they will ask of your ethnicity. These is a form of racism as to many bosses they would rather offer a job to a person of a certain ethnic group rather than the others. One thing that our leaders should fight for is unity among all irrespective of the color as achievement has no color.

Abuse of children is done physically, in words and sexually and is a common practice worldwide. The authorities should prosecute the offenders and creating laws that will help eradicate such cases. Many children drop out of school due to the abuse they endure. Let the relevant personnel educate the nation on the need of education and help stop child abuse.

Sex trafficking is common in many countries to date. This happens mostly to ladies of young age and traffickers earn money out of it. They sell the girls to people whose agenda is to use them for sex. Its an unacceptable action and the offenders should not go unpunished.
