1. …around you, and neither can you
see!
Work realized for:
Alexandra Soares; nr2
Joana Silva; nr17
Marisa Dias; 21
2. We are going to talk about racism, discrimination
and violence.
In this work we’ll try to show you how indirectly
we are envolved in these themes and how we
don’t really see them.
Every day, we are indirectly envolved in these
topics, through books, music, films and other
artistic expressions.
3. Racism
• Unfair treatment of people, or violence against them,
because they belong to a different race from own.
Discrimination
• The practice of treating one person or group
differently from another in an unfair way.
Violence
• The intentional use of physical force or power, against
another person, or against a group or community, that
injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment or
deprivation.
4. Protection for gangs, clubs and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places, faces
Where your blood comes from
Is where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life being a color
[Michael]
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye
5. 1st : But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Badness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all
2nd : If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gasses filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering as the youth die young
6. 3rd : I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money making
Selfishness got us following our wrong direction
4th : Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead in spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
7. With this work we have learned the warning for
discrimination and other social problems are
around us and most of the time we can’t see
them.
We hope that you can be more attentive to the
little messages that are around us and we don’t
give the fair value.
