Today is March 22nd 1765, the British Government has made the Stamp act. This is a law where all American colonist have to pay a tax on EVERY printed piece of paper they used.

In the past, inequality was mainly reflected by gender discrimination and racial discrimination. In the present, inequality is revealed by class-ism, a prejudice on the basis of social class.
