I've seen #EARTHLINGS

I've seen #EARTHLINGS

Please watch it. It's documentary film about the suffering of animals for food, fashion, pets, entertainment and medical research. Let me warn you that it is shocking, but this is what reality is like! It'll make you think, maybe reconsider your view on human relations with animals. Watch it if you think that it is our right to know the story behind the use of animals in our society. Write your comments!

The Occupy Movement

From the New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2011/11/09/us/ows-grid.html
The Occupy Wall Street protests continue to spread around the US, highlighting grievances some Americans have about banks, income inequality and a sense that the poor and middle class have been disenfranchised. A recent New York Times/CBS News poll found that almost half of the public thinks the sentiments at the root of the movement generally reflect the views of most Americans. What are your thoughts about the movement? Do you agree with the protesters’ methods?

What Era Do You Wish You Had Lived In?



The New York Times is publishing very interesting questions on various topics addressed to young people. I thought it would be nice to answer the same questions and then maybe compare your comments with what American students wrote on the topic.

Question:

Tell us which historical eras interest you most and why. Which would you like to visit or live in? What historical events or movements would you want to experience firsthand? Do you find life today “boring” compared to some past time periods?
