I came to England first in 1944 in the Airforce. I returned back to Jamaica in 1946 after spending two years there, it was too small for me. I joined the Airforce when I was 16 at the same time I left school, took my test and waited for the results. It was something beautiful at the time to all the young fellows in uniform. You think you want to be a part of something, but apart from that you can't always say why you do something, you're young, you don't stop and think of the dangers and things, you just do what you feel you want to do regardless of what your parents say. My parents did not approve in the beginning, but they had no choice at the time, but like everything else, its your life or your education, you gain an experience. I went back to JA in November 1946, the Windrush came in 1948, I returned to England, you know your parents are strict for one, now you have more freedom. After you reach a certain time in life you think you want to get away from the control of your parents.

As a matter of fact I had a reasonably good job in Jamaica and things were looking up. It just a matter of the Island is too small. You don't realise how small until after you've travelled.

One doesn't feel that you know everything, what happens, what you feel is a sense of freedom. I went to Bermuda, met a lot of Bermudans, I was in a crowd of people again, many were ex-service men you were able to do things. I had a relation on the ship who was going to see his brother, who was studying at the time. It's difficult for me to go back, because I've never looked back, I always try to look forward in life.

I wouldn't say England been good to me, but I say it made a change in my life at the time. England was the easiest country to get into and the hardest country to get out of, for the mere fact is if you working, you never earn enough money for your fare, but at the same time you always say you always have another 10 year, 15-20 years. You get yourself involved and things. I have spent most of my life in England, I have travelled quite a lot on the continent of Africa, and I went to Liberia, Sierra Leone, South Africa, and North America. But England has something that you want to get back to; you can't put your finger on it.

There is a racism, but it's up to the individual, how you counteract it, the fact is if a man say you are a black, so and so, you can't say you are a white, so and so. If you even get to fisti-cuffs, the best man win. It's true racism is more prominent with the younger generation , this generation doesn't put up with it, the way we as old colonials come here and accept it. Violence is part of the society today, and people will say the black man does that, but they never give the reasons he does it.

When black people wanted to do things in politics, there was always some excuse, but as the younger generation in the system today they are asking for more, and the younger generation had very few role models to follow. If you look at countries like Canada, where West Indians - or being Jamaican, I will refer to Jamaicans myself - went long after they start coming to England. They are much more advanced, they have a sense of being a West Indian, they don't mind you keeping your culture, and they accept it. People started going there as professionals, during the Michael Manley era, most of the cream left the island and that's what broke the political system of the island. The doctors, the lawyers, everybody want to go to Canada or America, unlike England, it was ordinary working class, the factory worker etc who came to England.

Jamaica in 1948 was all right to me, it was quite calm, not like now. Anyway I was living in Port Antonio, that's 60 miles from Kingston, so we were all living happily with everyone. If my husband had not sent for me, I would not have come at that point, maybe later. It was a big troop boat Empire Windrush and you have lots of soldiers, and lots of people coming to England, and the reason why it took such a long time, was something happened to one of the engines.

They went to Tampico and spent about 3 or 4 days there and after that we pass by Havana but we didn't dock. Then on to Bermuda and we spend another 4 days there, where we did land and the people there were very nice, they received us and they had a party and took us places. there were lots of men, more men than women, what I can remember now, there was a woman that stowed away on the boat, a woman you know, they found her and, she got VIP treatment, I saw her and spoke to her. She went to Birmingham.

When I came to England I live in Brixton, near the market. I tell you when I came here there were hardly any buildings standing and far as you can look it bomb and burn outright through and through. My husband sorted out a place to live, before he sent for me.

Well when I was in JA they said this is a very dark country, so it was different, the houses were all smashed because of the war, it was 1948 and war had finished in 1945. So you can imagine how it was; anyway we get together and we live together, and started having our children. I had five children, 3 boys and two girls. One girl lives in Germany and the others are here. the first boy is living in Milton Keynes, he has a lovely house there. I have no regrets about coming here, because my family is all here, far cousins and all that, all what I am interested in is here, all my children. Bringing up my children and looking after my husband and all that, that's occupied my time.

He went home and come back and took sick and he died, and I couldn't just pick myself up and go home and leave my kids here like that. Well I am glad that my husband sent for me, here anybody come to this country they can make a good life, its a nice country, it cold, it's different, but you can live happily; that's all I'm saying, I'm only sorry he is not around.

But I live a good life, a good life, a clean life, and I am pleased with it.

We came on the SS Cuba, which was a freight boat. The main thing is at that time you had the German Wolf pack, the submarines and for every 3 ships left the American coast to Europe one is still underneath the sea. So we had to go far north, to Iceland, it was very cold and it was winter. So it was not a good journey, that was not important. What was important, was that we arrived safely. I was shocked although Britain was at war, we assumed that the head of the Empire would be flourishing, of course we learnt about rations, but when you realise you could not go into the shop and buy a loaf, it hit you. Secondly the people did not have much things. The average English man in those days had one working suit, and a suit to dress to go to the pub on Sundays.

Things were very bad, about 15% of the British Isles were bombed, for example places like London Bridge, for a quarter of a mile, each side, it was flattened. Many people living in the country were not living in houses, they were living in huts in the woods, it was terrible, but they had the will to win, and that was good, and we became a part of it.

Coming back on the SS Windrush to England, in those days, the second day in England I went to Balham Labour Exchange and I was offered 5 jobs. Today the young man growing up unless he is technically and academically skilled his chance of employment is very bad.

I came with my own directive, if someone want to leave, let them leave, but I have been here during the war fighting Nazi Germany and I came back and help build Britain.

Sad to say the Right Honourable Creech Jones, he was the Minister of the Colonies, stated that we would not stay longer than 1 year, we are here and I and my people are here to stay.

The US has two main political parties - the Republicans and the Democrats.

Every president since 1853 has belonged to one of these two political parties.

They both have different ideas about how the country should be run, and they also have different animals that represent them.

The Republican party is represented by an elephant and the Democratic party is recognised by the symbol of a donkey.

But why is this?

Well, it is thought the Republican elephant was first used like this by an Illinois newspaper during Abraham Lincoln's 1860 election campaign - perhaps as a symbol of strength, although it is still debated.

It was then made popular after a man called Thomas Nast - who was a Republican - drew it in a cartoon in a magazine in 1874.

As for the Democratic donkey, it is thought this was first used during a presidential campaign in 1828, after the candidate Andrew Jackson used it on his posters because of a nickname his opponents gave him.

Again, Thomas Nast later used the cartoon animal to represent the Democrats and it became a popular symbol for the party by the end of the 19th century.

L’histoire d’un discours entré dans l’Histoire. 1963, Washington : Martin Luther King fait un rêve…

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Aux Etats-Unis dans les années 50, le sud du pays fait subir une politique terrible et brutale envers les noirs, que l'on appelle la ségrégation. Martin Luther King s'est battu toute sa vie pour que les noirs aient les mêmes droits que les blancs. Entouré par de nombreux hommes et femmes noires, Martin Luther King marche pour la dignité, la justice et l'égalité de tous. Le rêve de ces hommes devient réalité à partir de 1964 lorsque le Président Johnson signe alors le Civil Righ Act.

Voici l'histoire d'un homme qui, avec la force d'un discours, a réussi à changer le cours de l'Histoire. Bienvenue aux Etats-Unis, dans les années 1950-1960. A cette époque, crois-moi, les États-Unis, c'est un drôle de pays. Il y a plein de choses géniales comme le jazz, le gospel, le blues, le rock'n'roll... mais il y a, également, dans le sud du pays, une politique terrible et brutale qu'on a appelée la ségrégation : les noirs et les blancs n'avaient pas le droit de vivre ensemble [...] Martin Luther King s'est battu toute sa vie pour que les noirs aient absolument les mêmes droits que les blancs.

Martin Luther King naît le 15 janvier 1929. Il devient jeune pasteur et fait de brillantes études. Il est célèbre pour avoir organisé un boycott des bus à Montgomery, dans les années 1950, pour protester contre l'arrestation de Rosa Parks, arrêtée pour ne pas avoir cédé sa place à un homme blanc dans un bus. Martin Luther King sera de nombreuses fois menacé, emprisonné avec Rosa Parks et d'autres camarades.. Partout, des noirs américains suivent son exemple et protestent contre la ségrégation, combat qu'il mènera jusqu'à la fin de sa vie. Le 28 août 1963, une grande marche est organisée à Washington : 250 000 personnes, noires et blanches, arrivent de tout le pays.

C'est un moment historique devant le " Lincoln mémorial " : Martin Luther King raconte son rêve : une Amérique où les blancs et les noirs pourront vivre ensemble dans l'amour et la fraternité.

Recréer des tableaux de maître avec des bricoles depuis chez soi ? C'est le défi que le Getty Museum lance aux internautes. La rédaction vous dévoile ses coups de cœur !
Le Musée a posté sur les réseaux sociaux en mars dernier quatre exemples où ses employés relèvent le défi, avant d'inviter les internautes à faire de même en partageant leurs photos sur les réseaux sociaux. Maintenant c'est à vous de jouer !

Pour participer, il vous suffit de : vous prendre en photo en récréant un tableau célèbre avec les objets et vêtements de votre choix puis de juxtaposer votre photo avec le tableau original (via n'importe quel logiciel de montage gratuit) ensuite, vous n'avez plus qu'à partager le résultat sur les réseaux sociaux en mentionnant le hashtag #betweenartandquarantine ou/et #gettymuseumchallenge dans votre publication. Et le tour est joué !
Jouez à notre concours Nous avons sélectionné pour vous quelques-unes des propositions les plus réussies ou les plus amusantes. Voici les coups de cœur de la rédaction !
Focus sur les meilleurs portraits de :

Salvador Dali

American Gothic, Grant Wood

Le fils de l'homme, René Magritte

Frida Kahlo

La Jeune Fille à la perle, Johannes Vermeer

De nombreux internautes se sont laissé séduire par l'idée, réinventant à leur tour des tableaux célèbres avec humour - et parfois même un certain talent. Une femme recrée Un bar aux folies bergère de Manet en mettant un corset et en posant entourée de quelques bouteilles devant un bar. Il faut parfois faire preuve d'originalité pour recréer ces œuvres avec ce qu'on a sous la main. Un internaute a utilisé des bouteilles, un bonzaï, une casquette et des figurines des Simpson pour recréer un paysage romain de Turner !

D'autres vont jusqu'à reproduire la signature de l'artiste, comme cet internaute qui a recours à une publicité déchirée d'un magazine pour imiter les initiales d'Albrecht Dürer. Un certain nombre d'internautes a quant à lui préféré opter pour des tableaux religieux anciens, se mettant en scène telle la Madone avec son enfant. Faute d'enfant, cette internaute a posé avec son chien ! Pour les plus gourmands, il est possible d'allier l'utile à l'agréable en composant une Nature morte moderne à l'aide de deux conserves de thon, d'un fromage et d'huile de l'olive.

It’s an animal or a plant in danger of disappearing from the face of the Earth. Today, a species disappears every 13 minutes. And forecasts are worrying. One in 4 mammals, one in 8 birds and one in 3 amphibians could become extinct in the near future.

How do we know these species are in danger?

Since life appeared on our planet, the number of species has constantly evolved. Some die out and others appear. Most species disappear naturally, but human activity is speeding up this phenomenon. To build houses and roads, grow crops or fish for food, animal territories and plants are cut back or destroyed. CO₂ pollution is melting the ice cap where polar bears live; insecticides are killing off bees. Poaching and trafficking of elephant ivory, rhinoceros horn and shark fins are threatening the survival of these species.
Every year, the IUCN, International Union for Conservation of Nature, draws up a red list of threatened animal and plant species. Out of 80,000 species studied, 23,250 are “vulnerable”, “endangered”, or “critically endangered”. The red list attracts the attention of politicians and the general public so as to set up protection schemes. And it works! In 2016, for the first time in 100 years, the number of tigers in the wild went up. This is the result of a lot of hard animal protection work!

This continent is very different from Africa, America, Antarctica, Asia, Europe and Oceania! It wasn't formed millions of years ago but only a few decades ago. How? Because of waste produced by human activity!

That's right, it's a continent of floating waste, polluting the oceans.

Garbage is carried by rivers, or comes from beaches and boats. It's held together by giant circular currents called gyres, in the North Pacific, the South Pacific, the North Atlantic, the South Atlantic and the Indian Ocean. The 8th continent is therefore 5 gigantic garbage patches also called plastic soup!

In 1997, racing boat captain Charles Moore discovered the North Pacific patch by accident. It has since become urgent to measure the effects of this pollution, deadly for animals, fish and birds, who swallow plastic thinking it's plankton.

So can this troublesome continent Be cleared up?

It must be monitored: that's the aim of the 7th continent expedition exploring the 5 ocean gyres. Cleaning the oceans could start with the giant cleanup array invented by Boyan Slat, ready to function in late 2017! But according to Charles Moore, in the future, plastic should be limited to objects that last. Because, for the planet, plastic is not fantastic. A plastic bottle takes 450 years to break up... So on 3 July, international plastic bag free day, say "no thanks" to plastic bags!

R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Difficile de ne pas penser à Aretha Franklin, morte jeudi 16 août à l'âge de 76 ans, lorsqu'on épelle les sept lettres de cette valeur essentielle. Respect fut, bien sûr, d'abord écrite et enregistrée par Otis Redding, en 1965. Mais c'est bien la version revue et corrigée par Aretha Franklin en 1967 qui a fait passer la chanson à la postérité.

Plus qu'une reprise, la version sortie par la chanteuse américaine, âgée de 25 ans à l'époque, a transformé ce titre en hymne féministe et politique, consacrant son interprète comme nouvelle " reine de la soul ".

Dans le morceau original, publié sur l'album Otis Blue, M. Redding donne sa voix à un homme clamant son besoin de respect de la part de sa femme. Un respect qui lui serait dû lorsqu'il rentre chez lui, puisqu'il apporte l'argent au foyer. Mais Aretha Franklin, dans sa version enregistrée le jour de la Saint-Valentin 1967 à New York, bouscule ce schéma traditionnel en mettant ces mots dans la bouche d'une femme.

" La ferveur dans la voix d'Aretha exigeait ce respect "

" All I'm asking is for a little respect when I come home " (" tout ce que je demande c'est un peu de respect quand je rentre à la maison ") devient alors " all I'm asking is for a little respect when you get home " (" tout ce que je demande c'est un peu de respect quand tu rentres à la maison "). " Aretha l'a personnalisée, c'est devenu le truc d'une femme ", explique au Washington Post David Ritz, auteur d'une biographie de la chanteuse. " Mais sa version est si profonde et si remplie d'angoisse, de détermination, de ténacité et de toutes ces émotions contradictoires que c'en est devenu un hymne ", ajoute l'auteur de Respect : The Life of Aretha Franklin (2014, non traduit).

La chanteuse de Detroit conserve les couplets d'Otis Redding mais inclut un refrain dynamisé par les chœurs, assurés par ses sœurs Erma et Carolyn, et quelques nouvelles expressions. Ce " sock it to me " répété huit fois dans le dernier couplet est un brin provocant, la phrase pouvant se traduire par " montre-moi de quoi tu es capable ", voire revêtir une connotation sexuelle - même si Aretha Franklin s'en défendra.

Quand elle épelle le mot " respect ", elle ne semble plus seulement le demander, mais bien l'exiger. " Pour Otis, le respect avait une connotation traditionnelle, dans le sens de l'estime ", assurait le producteur d'Aretha Franklin, Jerry Wexler, dans son autobiographie, citée par le magazine Rolling Stone. " La ferveur dans la voix d'Aretha exigeait ce respect, et cela impliquait aussi une attention du point de vue sexuel... "

Aretha Franklin a modifié la chanson " de façon si radicale, que j'irais jusqu'à dire qu'elle l'a réécrite ", ajoute la musicologue américaine Victoria Malawey, professeure au Macalester College de Minneapolis-Saint Paul, interviewée par l'Agence France-Presse (AFP) :
" Elle n'a pas seulement modifié quelques paroles ou changé le point de vue, elle lui a aussi apporté une nouvelle âme. "
Numéro un des ventes plus de douze semaines

La chanson, parue dans l'album I Never Loved A Man The Way I Loved You, son premier pour le label Atlantic Records, devient un hymne féministe mais donne aussi une voix à la cause des Noirs en lutte pour leurs droits dans l'Amérique des années 1960. Sorti en avril 1967, le titre restera numéro un des ventes pendant plus de douze semaines, précise le Washington Post.

Respect a ensuite traversé les années et été reprise par de nombreux mouvements de revendication. Dans un palmarès paru en 2004, le magazine Rolling Stone en fera la cinquième " chanson de tous les temps ". Un classement dans lequel Aretha Franklin apparaît comme la première femme, placée derrière Like a Rolling Stone de Bob Dylan, (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction des Rolling Stones, Imagine de John Lennon et What's Going On de Marvin Gaye.

Grâce ce tube, elle remportera les deux premiers de ses 18 Grammy Awards et lancera sa carrière internationale. Un classique de la musique américaine que l'on peut entendre par ailleurs dans une trentaine de films, de Platoon à Blues Brothers en passant par Forrest Gump.

Quelques mois avant de périr dans un accident d'avion en décembre 1967, Otis Redding jouera Respect sur la scène du Festival de Monterey, non sans un clin d'œil à la nouvelle star de la soul : " La prochaine chanson est une chanson qu'une fille a emmenée loin de moi. Une bonne amie, cette fille, elle m'a juste pris la chanson. Mais je vais quand même la jouer. "

Walt Disney is a cartoon maker and an american producer. Mickey Mouse, the character he invented, made him famous all over the world. Even if he died over 50 years ago, children still remember his name!

Why was Walt Disney so successful?

In 1923, Walt Disney opened a small animation studio. Quite a risk! In those days, cartoons were rare and they were still in black-and-white and silent. But Disney had great ideas: he invented the characters of Mickey Mouse and his gang, and produced the first talking cartoons. They were a success! Audiences loved them and Mickey Mouse became an international star. In 1938, Disney had a big hit movie with Snow White and the 7 dwarfs, the first color cartoon. Walt Disney was also an impressive businessman: he turned Mickey Mouse into a comic strip hero. Then into a TV star in the 1950s in The Mickey Mouse Club Show. He invented the first theme park and opened Disneyland in California. Walt Disney died a millionaire in 1966 and his entertainment empire was one of the most powerful in the world. Since then, Disney Studios have produced over 250 films and cartoons, opened 5 new theme parks, and still make dreams for young and old alike!
