This concept may sound simple and conventional to many, but this could actually make the difference. Kids need to be able to know where they come from and the history of their ancestors in order to create a sense of belonging to their community. Through this strategy, kids are going to be able not just to reconstruct the past, but to interpret it and understand where they come from. This technique could really improve the history skills and they are going to make personal reflections that are going to end up in understanding history both intellectually and emotionally.

These are memories of a little indian boy who shares his experiences with the indictments of separate education, also he explains how he was raised to be loyal to the kingdom, even if that meant his rights were ignored. People were raised to be citizens of a colony not from the world, they were completely isolated from the reality in which they were living. These people believed that the kind of oppression they were receiving was normal and that they should be okay with it. After seeing how much different was the education and life white´s were receiving, he started to question himself what he did to deserve such difference and separate living. He drawn his attention to the process whereby exploitation and domination are imbibed to races that were considered different. He started looking at the colonizing times and he saw that the oppression was really old for himself and and many others. ]]> 2018-08-27 16:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/275607042 alejandra_ma2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276022442 The article "Soweto 76" narrates how the revolts against the political system were shut down violently.

He expresses that the values in his education changed due to the fact that he wasn't white and he had not the privilege of this race.

8) Do you believe there is going to be equality in the new educational system?

9) If the teaching materia is changed then the kids are going to be able to interpret history in a different way?]]> 2018-08-28 19:46:49 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276031208 andrea_m2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276032017 1) Is it really fair that people are isolated from the world and its various cultures and events?

2) In which way does the author describes these stories? 

3) Would you open your wounds to analyze profoundly the before and after, why?]]> 2018-08-28 19:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276032251 andrea_m2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276032462 1) The kids need to know where they came from, they need to know their past, ancestors in order to belong to a community and have a sense of belonging. 

2) Both are really important and necessary to understand history, because if you just know the the facts and numbers you will never feel this events as what they really were and feel what the persons  affects pass through. 

3) The educational system could be definitively improved by teaching
it's students their roots and background, this could give students a sense of belonging and common sense with their community. ]]> 2018-08-28 19:50:38 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276032462 andrea_m2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276080897 1)  For me, the best way to resolve problems is by accepting terms but at the same time fighting for the equality for both sides. 

2) The media is not being racist, they are just doing their work which is ruled by rating and general interests. People sometimes want to ignore the important dilemmas for intrascendent thing that will make them forget and not feel.

3) I believe people were killed because they were tired of the oppression and they decided to fight for their future, ideals and rights. ]]> 2018-08-29 00:44:16 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276080897 andrea_m2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276083283 1) I believe that leaving behind the apartheid educational system is the best way to defeat racism and differences between communities.

2) I really suppose that there is going to be a equal educational system but in the future because right now people still have taboos and skepticism.  

3) If kids learn different things they would think and perceive the world in a different way, the education is the base of the kids life. ]]> 2018-08-29 00:58:03 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276083283 alejandra_ma2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276197055 1) It is not fair that people are excluded because theres not an actual reason. Resentment is not an excuse to exclude people.

2) Races around the world have various cultures and traditions, but appart from that there shouldnt be anything that divides the world.

3) " was really old for himself and and many others. "]]> 2018-08-29 13:00:24 UTC https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276197055 alejandra_ma2020 https://padlet.com/alejandra_ma2020/iu9lkley7hz6/wish/276198351 1) yes, because it molded the critic opinion of the persons.
