1. Does inherited privilege play a role in our society? 2. Does the structure of the United States government provide for a fair, just treatment of all of its citizens?
3. How does the US government protect the rights of its citizens?
4. Were all people considered equal when our government was created?
5. How could this have impacted the decision made the creators of our government

1. Yes. Unfortunately, the role that this privilege plays in society is often to encourage inequality among citizens and not to allow meritocracy to be exercised efficiently.

2. No. The USA promotes and foresees an unequal treatment among citizens, mainly regarding race, origin, social position and heredity of people, which ends up generating a strong social inequality.

3. The US government protects citizens' rights through laws and guidelines that must be followed across the country. However, often these laws only work in theory and people continue to have their rights unprotected, especially citizens who are members of a social minority.

4. No. When our government was created, there was a strong slave culture in the country, which affirmed that whites and blacks were different and should be treated in different ways, where whites were placed as superiors and deserving of all possible social privilege. Furthermore, at the beginning of our government, women were also considered inferior and lived under a system of domination to which men were not subjected.

5. This did not impact the decision of the creators of our government, since they were all white men and did not suffer from the lack of rights and privileges that women and blacks suffered.

native american contribution: the patriots from britain learn how to hunt, fish, and introduce diversity within cultures.

african americans: indirectly introduced the idea of diversity to americans. africans coming to america because of slavery taught white americans that people come from different backgrounds and colors. it also built america's economic stability for a great period of time. 

women: make america what it is today. there are some societies that are in the world currently that do not give women the same right we give women here in the united states. because women have rights here in the united states, other countries' citizens strive to come to america, especially women, since they have equal rights in the united states. this is important because america is seen and desired by many in the world. 

children: children are our future. we learn from our elders and carry out things the same or differently learning from america's history. we continue tradition and change tradition if it is needed.
