The struggle for peace and equality, especially from the oppressors, is a hard task and may not be as easy as it may sound. The reason that makes it hard to attain is that the oppressors will also be struggling to continue oppressing the vulnerable and remaining at the top while subjecting the vulnerable to hard conditions.
Various undertakings have to be involved and from various sections of individuals, especially the youths in the fight to attain this peace and equality for all the individuals and those that are oppressed by the oppressors. Numerous processes also have to be undertaken in the missions of struggling for peace and equality for all. As a result, it becomes important to look at various aspects that are related to the struggle for peace and equality.
Youths and fight for peace and equality: The role they play in peace-building and struggle for equality.
The youths have an essential role to play in the fight for equality and peace, and they are deemed to be at the forefront of this struggle. Specifically, according to Felice, (2016), the youths play the role of supporting advocacy for both peace-building missions and creating meaningful lives.
The other essential role that the youth play in the search for peace and equality for all is that they develop essential approaches that are meant for advancing the political input of all the persons and developing essential efforts destined for making the above political participation be sustainable and even prevail for long.
The youths are also integrated into the civil structures aimed at ensuring peace as well as equality for everyone prevails as the failure to integrate them may lead to the entire failure of such peace-finding missions and corporations, (Kemper, 2005). However, despite the essential roles played by the youths, other sections of the community may fail to appreciate them and their efforts, especially when dealing with issues related to peace-missions.
Struggle for peace and equality: Anti-war movements in America
The anti-war movements are among the major strategies of fighting for peace and also ensuring that equality prevails for every individual in any society. Specifically, the contest for peace in American communities involved the use of forces and anti-war movements during the periods that the United States was involved in numerous war crisis that hindered the prevalence of peace in this nation, (Gottfried, 2014).
The colonial agents were highly concerned in fighting and also prosecuting the people that led such movements, which included the Mennonites, the Brethren, and the Quakers as they failed to struggle for the revolution of America and instead were focused on fighting for the creation and availing peace in America.
Individuals like Henry David and Senator Robert Byrd and other important organizations were mainly involved in missions that were meant to ensure that peace prevails, and no individual would deter the presence of this peace. There also existed the Hague Peace Conferences and the unveiling of the international peace and equality missions, which were destined for prevailing peace and also equality for every person.
Religions and fight for peace and equality: Non-violence and peace-building in Islam
Just like the youths, religions also have an essential role to undertake in ensuring that peace and equality for all prevails and that there is no violation of the essential desire for this peace for all the individuals. The above situation has been revealed by the Islamic religion that has been viewed to play a significant role in the search for peace and also equality for all individuals.
In such a case and according to the Islamic religion and culture, the practitioners of this religion are trying as much as possible so that they may overcome the negative images and perceptions that the Western Individuals have portrayed them to be, (Abu-Nimer, 2003).
The Islamists are also trying as much as possible to move away from the negative perception that this religion has been associated with, especially where they have been portrayed as being violent and not practicing equality. In doing so, they are playing an essential role in ensuring that peace, as well as equality, prevail for all and that all the individuals are struggling to make ensure that peace is availed for all the individuals despite the various disparities between the people.
Parenting and fight for peace and equality: parenting for a peaceful world
The other important idea discovered in relation to the instance of the struggle for peace and also equality is that essential parenting tips are important for making sure that peace and also equality prevail for everyone. Social and psychological issues, as well as the instances of cultural aspects, have to be dealt with so that equality and peace for all may prevail (Grille, 2005).
Ensuring that peace and equality prevail for all mainly relies on the essential parenting tips where parents play an important role in educating their children regarding the need for embracing peace at all times. Whenever essential parenting tips are embraced, then it becomes a promise that that peace will prevail for ourselves, our families, and finally, the entire world (Nagler, 2004). The hunt for a non-violent future implies exploring the non-violent ways of healing and humanization of the modern Universe that is highly violent.
The road to transcend as they search for peace
In the above situation, it is perceived that peace will prevail naturally between races and genders, and even for all generations whenever there is an instance of unification. In such a case, states, classes, and even the nations will serve as a basis of cultural violence, which will have to be dealt away with before peace can prevail.
The existence of peace, in this case, will only prevail after doing away with the seven faults of humanity, which include instances of race and classes, genders as well as generations, exclusions and discrimination, and subduing of others (Galtung, 2002). Therefore, people have to align all of the above seven faults and considerations as a way of making sure that peace prevails and that conflicts have been avoided at all the costs.
The alignment will also be an important way of looking for peace and avoiding conflicts, especially in the divided societies where peace is absent in most cases, (Oberschall, 2007). Aspects of insecurities also have to be dealt with by embracing political reforms and ensuring that truth and justice prevail at all times.
Conclusion
Individuals may not live effectively in a society where peace and equality do not prevail. It is important for all individuals living in a certain society too, first of all, to ensure that peace and equality prevail as this will aid in living together harmoniously. Peace and equality are also the leading factors for the mutual existence of all individuals.
However, the above peace and equality may not prevail naturally as they have to be sought through various means like anti-war movements and organizations that will make sure this peace prevails. Ensuring that peace and equality prevails is also a hard task and bears with it a lot of costs that people have to bear to ensure that the peace prevails.
