Based on the novel “The Underground Railroad” by Colson Whitehead and the short story “The Heads of Colored People” by Nafissa Thompson Spires. Identify a social justice issue that is still relevant today that relates to both these stories. Provide and explain an identified common issue that both of them explore. Then, explain what are some relevant statistics? Where is this still an ongoing issue? What’s the history behind this issue? What has been done to address this issue and is it enough? How does this impact you and the community you live in?

It’s an essay I need to complete by today before 11:59.

Rhian is a five-year-old girl who has just migrated with her family from Iran as a refugee. She attends your service twice a week and she is experiencing difficulty in forming friendships with the other children as she frequently wets her pants. At first, you assumed she was nervous and was forgetting to go to the toilet, but now you are wondering whether there is some other cause of her incontinence. You approach your Director to ask if there were any toileting issues identified at enrolment and find there were not. You decide to start a ‘Star Chart’ for her to reward every successful day without wetting herself. This is a dismal failure. You then try offering her stamps as a reward. After a few weeks, you decide to speak to her mother again about the problem because you have noticed that Rhian is deliberately restricting the amount of fluid she drinks through the day.

Rhian’s mother still insists that she is toilet trained and there must be something at the service that is stopping her from using the toilet. She asks to look again at the toilet and walks towards the staff toilet. You call her back and guide her to the children’s toilets, which are communal and open. The problem was evident immediately to Rhian’s mother; she explains that in Iran it is considered very shameful to go to the toilet where others can see you, so Rhian would not use the children’s toilet no matter what reward she was offered.

1. The educator failed to look beyond the obvious to identify the issues behind Rhian’s behaviour. Why is it important to consult with other professionals before determining the causes for a child’s behaviour?
