Opinion Piece


Building peace around our world has been difficult due to the hard times this world is going through. Still many people who deserve and are willing to have peace in their own country are not giving up and are trying to prevent everything that is affecting their country. The country of Mexico is one of the countries in which there is a lot of violence, discrimination, corruption, killing, etc. People from this type of countries can’t not just move to another country to prevent all this violence, it’s not that easy, but instead they keep on living their lives by making organizations to prevent and follow the positive ways in order to progress and end this terrible situation. Government should be the one responsible to be working on this, but instead the government is the one beginning all these problems for not doing anything and letting this happen. People not just from Mexico but from all around the world are getting tired and they are not expecting anything from their government because they know it will not make any changes, so why still depend on somebody else, why not start something oneself and make some changes. However, there is an organization running today in Ciudad Juarez called Amor por Juarez, which is trying to involved all the people they can in order to be only one positive and successful group in where they can make a change into this city to end violence and show those who don’t care that there can be peace in this city by contributing and collaborate all together and demonstrate the new country that will be made. Corruption, violence, discrimination and many other problems that we get to experience have been a problem not just national but all over the world. By working all together we can make a change because we are more people who wants a change than does who doesn’t even care about their own future.
