1. How would you want to change the world, if you could? Not all revolutions are violent wars; they are often social movements that change people’s thoughts and approaches to life.
If I were able to change the world, I would do many things. However, I think that focusing on the most important issues would be the wisest. Changing the world in a very subtle and peaceful way could allow the people of Earth to adjust, and hopefully be happy in the end. I would personally revolutionize the world by making all human beings equal. Every person, no matter what race, gender, age (or countless other attributes) deserves to be treated like every other human. I believe that inequality is a major problem that can other worsen in the future if nothing is done soon. Although gender issues were probably much, much worse in the past, we can only change what is coming in the future. That is why I would choose to end any racial, gender (and other) profiling. It's only right that every human can be as equal as the person standing next to them.

2. The revolutionaries in colonial America sought to change something...what is it you would change about our world, if you could be a part of a revolution during your lifetime?
Much like I said in the first question, I find that equality is something that could only bring good vibes to Earth. If I were apart of a revolution, I would fight for the right to be equal. For example, in the colonial revolution from Britain, the British thought that they were superior to the colonists. The colonists believed that they were better than the blacks. A whole circle of inequality flew through the colonies, and before the revolution, interactions between the colonists and British were rough. If I had taken part in that revolution, I would have fought for the right to be free from an overpowered "superior" kingdom. Although the racial inequality didn't change for a while, eventually people fought for the freedom of the "blacks" (people of color). Even today, there is still much profiling for most people of color, and I will make an effort to change that when I have the power to make a change.
