I have lectured at the U.N. and travelled widely, giving lectures on human rights and gender inequalities in universities. But this is a life I do not wish to live. I don't want to be a showcase, I want to be in a battlefield where I can stand beside the oppressed and the poor.

WHAT DOES INEQUALITIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Inequality (mathematics)

In mathematics, an inequality is a relation that holds between two values when they are different. ▪ The notation ab means that a is not equal to b. It does not say that one is greater than the other, or even that they can be compared in size. If the values in question are elements of an ordered set, such as the integers or the real numbers, they can be compared in size. ▪ The notation a < b means that a is less than b. ▪ The notation a > b means that a is greater than b. In either case, a is not equal to b. These relations are known as strict inequalities. The notation a < b may also be read as "a is strictly less than b". In contrast to strict inequalities, there are two types of inequality relations that are not strict: ▪ The notation ab means that a is less than or equal to b.
