LGBT
Assignment 2
I believe the LGBT community as a whole has made the most significant gains in the last 20 years. This can be proven with such facts as that in 1993 the all famous “Don’t ask don’t tell” policy was enforced, this permitted gays to serve in the military but banning homosexual activity. From 2004-2006 Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Connecticut all legalized all civil-unions. More recently, in 2012, both Washington and Maryland approved same-sex marriages. All of these points are all crucial to the development of the LGBT itself. This is why they have the most tremendous gains, especially in the last 20 years. While the fewest belongs to the improvements to citizen of the US with Asian descent. The issue with the citizens from Asian descent is not as pressing as it was in the past. The only highlight for this group was all the way in 1952 when foreign-born Asians were just given the right to become citizens of the United States. Some possible options for members of Asian descent is to incorporate themselves more in today’s society whether that be political, or in the entertainment industry. If they are able to do this, it will show that they are strong and have the opportunity to excel in things. This will showcase their abilities, thus, allowing greater acceptance from Americans. Though this is not an extremely pressing issue currently, it is still significant to some and should be treated with the upmost respect. If Asian descendants are able to do these things, their lives and their children’s life will be more prosperous than ever before.
