Post Something to Think About:

If the World were 100 People

There would be:

57 Asians

21 Europeans

14 from North and South America

8 Africans

52 would be Female

48 would be Male

70 would be non-white, 30 white

59% of the entire world's wealth would belong to 6 people and all 6 would be citizens of the United States

80 would live in substandad housing

70 would be unable to read

50 would suffer from malnutrition

1 would be near death

1 would be near birth

1 would have a college education

99 of them will not see this message, because only 1 would have a computer

When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the need for both acceptance and understanding become glaringly apparent.
