Hi,
I have to do a speech on injustice in 2 days.. ive had an idea to do racism all this time until someone the other day got up and discussed that topic. Im really stumped.. I can't seem to come up with a topic even though I know there are thousands of injustices in todays world. Please feel free to post what you think is injustice, I would love to hear your ideas to maybe spark mine :) Thanks.

I am a homemaker - mother of two, wife of one. My husband and I have been married for 14 years. My kids are ages 12 and 11. I am 34 and my husband is 32...we intentionally had our children at a younger age, so we'd both still be young when they were ready to be "on their own". We BOTH decided that I would be at home with the kids from birth until they were old enough to be home alone for a few hours...that's when I'd get a job - if I want to. My husband makes plenty of money, and he doesn't really want me to work, but isn't going to ever stand in my way. He's not a caveman. Anyway, I interviewed for a job about a month ago, and when the interviewer asked about my lack of "real job experience" I told him that it was due to the fact that I've been a stay-home mom for the last 12 years. He said, "So, you've been on a 12 year-long vacation."
The injustice here...I'm being discriminated against because I've stayed at home with my children? I realize they are both in school now, but they still require parenting. I clean, cook, run errands, take care of the bills, take care of the home, take my kids from place to place - constantly - if they are sick, I am the nurse. If I am sick, I still do my daily tasks! I don't get vacation time, sick time, overtime, or any other paid day an employee would get. I don't get a paycheck, but I work more hours than a full-time employee would.
Need I go on? I never really complained until I was treated that way for that interview. He made it seem like what I do "doesn't count" ... go figure.
By the way... I was going to get a job because I wanted to contribute to saving money for my children's future education. My husband already has benefits and 401k coming out of his check. We save for their college education, but I thought this would contribute even more money! I didn't want the job so I could spend the money on myself. I rarely do that. I always look after everyone before me. I did not get the job because I was not "qualified". I can type 100 wpm without mistake, excellent with math and spelling, can multi-task better than most people I know, and I'm a quick study.

Our legal system is very unjust and needs overhauling desperately. People who have money to pay top lawyers get off for murder, while others who have incompetent court appointed lawyers, serve many years for lesser crimes. Example O.J. Simpson.

o.j. simpson..never a clearer case of injustice in the history of murder cases...the jurors even said that they voted the way they did because of previous injustices to blacks over the years...two wrongs, they claimed, made a right...and that was injustice immaculate.

Racism, like it is unacceptable for any other than a black to use the N word
Or only whites can be charged with hate crimes
Civil rights are for minorities only

Antisemitism, Socialism, Communism, illegal Immigrants, Islamo- Facism, Iranian nuclear power program, Mahoumud Achmadinejdad threatening to wipe Israel off the map and rage war against the West, and Islamic Jihad.
Good Luck on your speech!
