    This memorandum discusses gender inequality faced by the LGBT community. While same-sex marriage is now legal, issues of violence, poverty, and discrimination still exist. Bringing more attention to the hardships faced by the LGBT community could help promote fair treatment. The topic was chosen because, as an immigrant, the author believes all people deserve equal rights and treatment as stated in the Declaration of Independence, but LGBT individuals still face unfair treatment and violations of their rights. Communications can help the LGBT community connect with the world and cry out about unfair treatment through social movements.

    Memorandum

    TO:Professor Gomez
    FROM:Blanca Urcuyo
    SUBJECT: Gender Iniqualityin the LGBT community
    DATE:SEPTEMBER 4, 2016

    Description of Topic:
    Same-sex marriage is now legalby the SupremeCourtin the United States of America,
    but the LGBT community still struggles with issues of violence, poverty, and what
    seems like never ending discrimination. The LGBT community still has a long way to
    go before these issues are addressedand come to the attention of the citizensof the
    U.S.A. that our not directly affectedby these issues. If we bring to the attention these
    hardships that these individuals have to gothrough we could promote a bigger social
    movement for the fair treatment the people fromthis community is entitled too.

    Reason for Choosing Such Topic:

    Ichose this topic because as an individual who comes from an immigrant family,
    and who has seen the differences in state laws about freedom throughout several
    countries I believethe LGBT community deserves to be treated as the founding
    fathers have stated in our declaration of independence that "all men are created
    equal" and that we have "certainunalienable rights" which include, "life, liberty and
    the pursuit of Happiness." And as I have witnessed throughthe media and even
    personal experience these individuals are not being treated in such way. They are
    being treated unfairly and we our violating their said "unalienable" rights.
    I stronglybelievethat everyone in this nation deserves to be treated fair and equal
    which is one of the many reasons so many people migrate here, and as we
    show disrespectand discrimination towards this community the U.S.A. is turning into
    a countrythat reflects the one the firstimmigrants to the U.S. first were escaping
    from.

    Relationship between the topic and Communications:


    My major has a huge impact in this social issue. Communications is how the world
    connects through language and symbols and without it this community is unable to
    cry out to the world what has beenunfairlydone to them. The LGBT is a great
    example of a social movement that can be transformed and growthrough
    the processof communication in all the various fields of my major.
