The cry for help of the janitors: Bread and Roses analysis

Image
The problem seems typical, most of the time we saw injustice among us, it`s very frequent. But it's still a cause which is worth to fight and that brings us to the Bread and Roses movie, based on the movement "Justice For Janitors" which took place in Los Angeles. I think the movie itself did a great job when it comes to clarifying the struggle of the janitor for, in the first place, their condition of illegal inmigrants and second their bad treatment of their employers who didn't give them health care and enough wage to survive, meanwhile they enjoy the profits of that questionable action.  But the movie doesn't give a total closure of the situation, when it ends i think that the context still has these loose ends which makes you wonder what happens later, but maybe was for the short gap between the protests and the movie itself. So, I will call this a quick-rush movie considering the context. when it comes to the characters I think that they represent the ...

My cellphone My obsession

You know that is very important when you go out without it and instantly feel naked for that. Cellphones or Smartphones has become an important part for our average day for most of the people.

Blog 1: How i became myself

Ok, this is going to be painful and not for the struggles, which they are not many,  but more for the feelings of the old memories. I born on December first of 1998 in La Serena, Chile and i´m very proud of it. Although i would prefer to born in the city next to, Coquimbo because i always have the port in hearth thanks to my mother and father family who all born there. My dad is an civil engineer, very smart but not very successful when it comes to opportunities, he wasn´t have very luck in this aspect. My mother in the other side was doing very good as a bilingual secretary  but she always want to raise his child when they born, so when I came to her life she quit her job and raise me first and then my sister, Antonia, who born four years later. Even tough we have our struggles, today i´m very happy for their decisions, now I'm see that they do a great job preparing me (and still preparing my sister) for this world and try to give me the best that this life has to of...
