Diversities Bodies, Violence and Human Rights in the 21st Century: The Gender and Racism Issues

In the 21st century, we witness situations of violence, prejudice, discrimination and intolerance with different bodies. Diversity in terms of genders and races/ethnicities constitutes an important social phenomenon, whose basis is found in the disrespect for human rights. Diverse bodies are stigmatized, taking advantage of the concept of stigma (Goffman, 1982) and socially marginalized, while we forget that we are all human, as Ingold (2018) states in his book "Anthropology - Why It Matters". One of the main ways to face disrespect for human rights and for diverse bodies is to broaden the debate. As sociologists we have a duty to discuss and face this issue.
