Freedom by https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn Nick Hemel en Robin Brandjes en-us 2018-03-15 13:04:42 UTC 2025-04-19 15:35:20 UTC hello@padlet.com America (USA) 120964 https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn/wish/242326101 - We chose the USA because the USA has a different political system than the Netherlands. And we think the political system in the USA is very special.

-  The United States is a frederal republic  in which the president, Congress, and federal courts share powers reserved to the national government according to its Constitution. The federal government shares sovereignty with the state governments.

 -  The president, Congress, and federal courts are in charge in the USA. The USA is a democracy.

-  The political system of North Korea is a dictatorship. 

- Kim Jong-un is the dictator of North Korea.

- North Korea doesn't have freedom of speech.
 
The biggest difference between North Korea and the Netherlands:
In the Netherlands we can say what we want and we can almost do what we want. So in the Netherlands we got a lot of freedom. The people in North Korea can't say and do what they want. There is totally no freedom in North Korea.

-  The main difference in the political system between the USA and the Netherlands:
The people in the USA can choose there own president. The president in the USA also changes every 4 years. But he can be re chosen by the people for another 4 years.
In the Netherlands we have a king and a goverment who are in charge. The goverment changes every year and the king changes when he wants to resign.

She holds a torch above her head with her right hand, and in her left hand carries a tabula ansata inscribed in Roman numerals with "JULY IV MDCCLXXVI" (July 4, 1776), the date of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. A broken chain lies at her feet. The statue became an icon of freedom and of the United States
- marianne
Marianne is a significant republican symbol. As a national icon she represents opposition to monarchy and the championship of freedom and democracy against all forms of oppression. Other national symbols of France include the tricolor flag, the national motto Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité, the national anthem "La Marseillaise", as well as the coat of arms and the official Great Seal of France. 

Which object would we choose to symbolize freedom?
We would chose for the peace symbol, because we think it stands for a world with peace and freedom. And that means a lot for us.

Lyrics:
Hold on to me
Don't let me go
Who cares what they see?
Who cares what they know?
Your first name is Free
Last name is Dom
We choose to believe
In where we're from
Man's red flower
It's in every living thing
Mind, use your power
Spirit, use your wings
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Hold on to me
Don't let me go
Cheetahs need to eat
Run, antelope
Your first name is King
Last name is Dom
'Cause you still believe
In everyone
When a baby first breathes
When night sees sunrise
When the whale hunts in the sea
When man recognizes
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Breathe in
We are from heat
The electric one
Does it shock you to see
He left us the sun?
Atoms in the air
Organisms in the sea
The son and, yes, man
Are made of the same things
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom]]> 2018-03-16 11:03:24 UTC https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn/wish/242745667 Vlog Freedom 120964 https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn/wish/242759185 2018-03-16 11:47:59 UTC https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn/wish/242759185 Vlog 120964 https://padlet.com/120964/hztgu63b30sn/wish/242761540
We were a little bit nervous in the vlog, so thats why we had a little trouble with talking in the video and that is why we also said something different in the vlog


Text vlog:
What is freedom?

freedom means to be free of something .

you can be free of somethings but you cannot be truly free

because I don’t believe that truly freedom exist .

Because there is always something that cages us to be truly free.

For instance emotions can hold us back to be free like love and hatred.

There are also rules and laws so we can’t do whatever we want. 

And most people can’t be who they are without being judge by others or they are forced to change their self.

And that is why I don’t think we can be truly free because there is always something that hold us back
