Black History Month Presentation: Martin Luther King Junior: Poverty: Part 3

Black people have federal and state law programs. According to UNICEF, around 22,000 children die each day due to poverty. Hunger, lack of sanitation and access to clean water and lack of resources for proper health care are the main reasons. Back in 2011, 165 million children were stunted due to less nutrition. 

Mostly through household surveys, they found that 44 percent of the world lived in extreme poverty. 1990: The World Bank defined extreme poverty as people living on $1 or less a day. Around 1.85 billion people, or 36 percent of the world's population, lived in extreme poverty.
To stop poverty, here are some solutions:
  1. Create jobs. ...
  2. Raise the minimum wage. ...
  3. Increase the Earned Income Tax Credit for childless workers. ...
  4. Support pay equity. ...
  5. Provide paid leave and paid sick days. ...
  6. Establish work schedules that work.
  7. Christian activists have been trying to motivate us to care.
  8. Pray for more money.

A Bible verse about poverty: 
“Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
 -Luke 12:33-34

Artknits Thornhill articles: Lets learn about cells!

So, the cell theory states that living things consist of cells, that a cell is the basic structural and function the unit of life. And they are all cells come from pre-existing cells. So, scientist have been study living things for over 400 years. Later, the development of the microscope allows scientist to see cells for the first time because, it was hard to see. So, they can develop the cell theory by basic characteristics, of living things. You have to learn cells from other living things because, you have to learn what is the cell is look like, of its size or complexity. And it reminds us of studying of how living things work.
