Question

n addition to their
diverse religious and
cultural backgrounds,
there are other ways
in which Samir Ek
and Samir Do are
different from each
other. For example,
while Samir Ek goes to
school, Samir Do sells
newspapers.
Samir Do did not have the
opportunity to attend school. Perhaps
you've noticed that there are several
people in the area where you live who
are poor and who don't have enough
to eat or wear and sometimes not even
a place to live. This difference is not
the same as the one we have seen
earlier. Here, we're talking not of
difference but of inequality. Inequality
comes about when a person does not
have the resources and opportunitites
that are available to other persons.
The caste system is another
example of inequality. According to
this, society was divided into different
groups depending upon the work that
people did and they were supposed to
remain in those groups. So if your
parents were potters you could only
become a potter, nothing else. This
system was considered irreversible.
And because you were not supposed
to change your profession, it was not
considered necessary for you to know
anything more than what you needed
in your profession. This created a
situation of inequality. You will read
more about this and other inequalities
in the following chapters.
What does diversity add to our
lives?
Just like Samir Ek and Samir Do
became friends, you might have
friends who are very different from
you. You have probably eaten
different kinds of food in their homes,
celebrated different festivals with
them, tried out the clothes they wear,
and learnt some of their languages
as well.
Discuss
Why do you think Samir Do did
not attend school? Do you think
it would have been easy for him
to attend school if he wanted to?
In your opinion is it a fair
situation that some children get
to go to school and others don't?
Make a list of the festivals that
might have been celebrated by
the two boys.
