Bangkok's 'Mexican' Gangsters

In the first place to see this article caught my attention, since without reading it before I came to think that would be equal to the gang that we see in Mexico, with a lot of violence; however it is nice to know that other people "example" without ill to his neighbor, the same way was really amazing to see how many of the gangster the grouo asking for the advice of his wife, which is amazing.

It is for such a motive that it neither is necessary to judge a person for its physical appearance, neither is good to say a comment if there are not known the ideals and intention of the others.

Role of Graffiti


Graffiti of Bogotá: Graffiti's in this country combines and have the meaning where the government,  and people accept what they do and no matter how much they complain, it wont have the strength to try to change what is wrong.

Clearly, Bogota's graffiti show how much they care about indigenous people and how much the government doesn't take care of much of the situations that the country lives day by day police in Colombia doesn't gain respect because they have done things that made people not to trust them anymore.

Colombia's graffiti have one similarity with the northern african graffiti and is that they show that are in disagreement with some of the decisions that the government have made, also, Northern africs show a lot about war and how much they complain about it Argentina's graffiti show lot of art where combines interpretation and it shows many different types of graffiti where sometimes shows  about politician with their art touch or tridimensional images painted in the wall streets, showing artistically and their imagination.

Compared to northern Africa where they show some of repression about their country because of political views, Argentina shows everything in an artistic way and using imagination. Hondura's graffiti shows by art how many violence are in their country and how much they're not agree with this situation, shows the fear they have when they go by their homes at night. Honduras graffiti have similarities with northern african graffitis because of the violence the countries are having right now, by doing graffiti they don't hurt anyone, they show disagreement with government.

Brazilian graffiti shows their disagreement with government and political corruption they have in the city, it amazes me how great the work is, you need to over-analyze the paints and what they are doing in there just to clearly see that they don't show right away that is because of the political corruption, they thru the art of the graffiti shows you what are you living every day.

Racism against AfroColombians




As the human being evolves and develop we also expected racism to decrease, since we live in an era fulfilled with new technologies, freedom of thoughts, people who daily speak of God and how God sent Jesus to teach us how to love each other as loved us no matter  the race, color, religion. Unfortunately, we see how people of color are considered slaves, victims of racism; the society is guilty, even in the minimal, of closing the doors to their progress and freedom.


Nowadays, we have witnesses the overcoming of many people of color assuming roles of prestige and important in the society, for example: presidents, business men/women, secretaries, Colombian artists, athletes, etc. However, to get to that place was not easy for them, because of the racist past that persecutes them. It would be a good thing that before we
judge someone by their skin color, we notice their abilities, skills, strengths and virtues that they possess, because their active presence in the society is very importance.
