Equality, It’s a word that should embody people of all race, creed, and colors. People fight for equality all around the world. From the oppression of women in the Middle East, to the fight for Americans rights that take place in every courtroom in the country. But what does it mean to you? What really is equality?
Equality is measured in terms of worth, of value. And all people have equal worth and equal value. There is no person who is inferior to any other person, ever. As Hobbes said in Leviathan, despite our physical differences, the smallest, weakest person could kill the strongest, so the physical differences argument is no basis for justifying inequality.
Equality may be the most important goal the human race can shoot for. Without equality, perhaps you would not be here. Equality is the most we can hope for. Without inequality, we would not be human; we are all not good at the same things. But we should all be equal in our potential and freedoms.
