POST 7,COUNTER-POWER : MARCH FOUR OUR LIVES MOVEMENT 







    March for our lives is a youth and peaceful movement very powerful in the USA. Create ans addressed for young people, they aspire to make a "Peace Plan for a safer America". They are based on several arguments : the "gun violence epidemic" : every day more than 100 people of different ages and living situations, are the target of a gun fire and victims keep growing. With this plan, 200,000 lives could be saved in 10 years.

   But more than just numbers, they speak directly to the next Presidential and Congress with six bold steps.

   The movement opposes the gun lobby, the NRA which is still very powerful and is bribing the state. The American people are therefore divided in two parts The pacifist movement is very strong with its important communication, a well thought out website, videos and testimonials. The march of 24 March 2018 was the biggest youth-led protests since the Vietnam war area.

   Moreover, they use chock sloggans like : "never again", "am i next ?", "the young people will win" or "our blood, your hands".

Fred Guttenberg approached Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh at the start of the lunch break during his confirmation hearing in Washington DC.

    Speaking on CNN, Mr Guttenberg said: ‘I simply said, ‘Hi, my name is Fred Guttenberg, I’m the father of Jaime Guttenberg, who was murdered in Parkland’. As soon as I got to the ‘murdered in Parkland,’ that’s when you saw him turn and move and walk the other way.’ He revealed he had hoped to tell the judge: ‘I hope you can be part of making sure no other parent has to feel the way I do, because we can fix this.’ 
The subject of carrying a weapon in united states is very divided. Things can change but it takes time on one side to gain the upper hand over the other. It is an issue that involves lives and especially deaths.

POST 11: SPACES & EXCHANGES: A MIND MAP First of all it is important to differentiate the two components of the concept "spaces and exchanges". A space is theoretically a delimited area, on a more or less large scale. An exchange is the act of giving or receiving something in substitution for something else. The exchanges can be economic, social, cultural, political. These exchanges, as we can clearly see on the mind map, take place in real or virtual spaces. We will focus on this distinction by studying the two different types of spaces, and then we will focus on the exchanges made on those spaces. First, we will look at different real spaces. Indeed we all know the two great spaces that separate the globe. This limit imagined in 1959, puts on one side the so-called rich and developed countries and on the other the countries which are more behind, less developed. The use of this limit is however to be put into perspective because today countr

POST 12 : Spaces and Exchanges : Two cartoons In the first document we can see the store window, from an external point of view. This shop is located on a sidewalk, in a city. A passer-by is certainly on his way to or from work, carrying a schoolbag in his hand, is in costume. He seems to be very interested in the shop window, his neck is in rotation, a slight smile appears on his face. In this electronics shop called "ace computers", we can see in the window three computers and a poster addressed to passers-by. On the latter is written: "Welcome, Eco tourists! Why travel and add to pollution? Stay home and visit exotic travel web sites!" The man passing by on the sidewalk therefore seems to be particularly interested and intrigued by this ad. We will therefore try to interpret this comic strip. The electronic sign, is directly addressed to passers-by, inhabitants likely to work hard without necessarily being able to afford holidays

POST 3: Agrihoods: The Newest Trend In Millennial Living | NBC Nightly News (18/12/2017)     HIPPIE COMMUNES.    T hroughout the late 1960s and 1970s, a deep-seated social discontent developed among young people in the United States. These were men who’d been forced to fight a war they didn’t believe in only to return home to a country that didn’t want them.   T he country was filled with college graduates lacking any job prospects, young women who refused to lead their mothers’ lives, and the myth of an “equal” society that couldn’t seem to shake its nasty history of segregation and inequality.   T he product of this dissatisfaction was hippie culture, and from hippie culture sprang hippie communes–group living spaces, communities, or villages where like minded individuals could live simply like their agrarian ancestors (usually with the help of some mind altering substances). And, most notably, hippies placed communal needs and values above individual rights.    A s
