My responce to the community walk

This was my favorite picture from the community walk because I was glad to see that the community gave tribute to the Philadelphia Negro League because a lot of black people do not recieve a lot of credit and for them to have a whole memorial deicated to the Philadelphia Baseball Negro League its a step up from not reconizing black people at all.

International visitors come to SOTF

Today was a very good day. Visitors from other countries came to talk about how they was living and their cultures. I think it was very interesting.I learned a lot from listening to the different people. I also enjoyed the different questions that were being asked. I think the visitors helped me get more knowledge about their homes and their religions.

The World Comes to School of the Future
About this category: Education


Today on the 5th day of February 5 people from 4 different countries came to visit us here at the School of the Future. It was 4 male teachers and 1 female. They were all English teachers. This was the 1st time for some of them to ever come to the US. They are here for until June. For the next six weeks they will be at the School of the Future observing the learners as well as the educators. They all speak at least two languages some even four. Therefore they will be helping the learners learn their new languages.

They came today, talked one on one with about 11 learners and had a tour of the new school. They spent some time in some of the classes and got to see how some of the learners act. They got to see how our school differs in many ways. They got to go to the gym and they enjoyed there selves. They played basket ball and did some pull ups. They really had fun. They had lunch with 11 learners and left at about 12:30.

Iternational Visitors
About this category: Culture


I think today was a great oppertunity for all of us kids at S.O .T .F. ( School of the future). I think that it was a big eyeopener to the people that came from the different countries, because they learned how we function and how we live and learn at the School of the future. To me this was a big eyeopener for me in general, because I learned about how things are being functioned outside of the country I live in. I really enjoyed it alot and I sure they did. I am happy i got to expeirence this today.

Gender differeneces in migration
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


Basically the article is telling me about the difference between men and women to be migrants but focuses on the women. It is also describing how hard it is for the migrant women to find good jobs to take care of their families on the income they receive. Next the article goes into the help that the women overseas get from our government it’s not much but it keeps the children clothed and educated. Also it explains the difference from the 1990’s and now. Basically now our government helps migrants here in the U.S.

children right
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


it saying in the story tat all kids will grow up in be some thing it do not matter where you come from.it's also say that kids should have the same rights as adult and if you are in a community where kids are aposed to be seen not heard it is hard for them to get there rights.i also thing that kids should have the same right because childen are getting more better at being good so we should have more rights.

It was also about how they would sell them for the least amount of money like for five dollors. I read that there was a mother that sold the 3 childrenm for $180 dollors to a fisherman.

What do I think?
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


The article I read was about children be sold by their own parents into slavery for little as $180. The reason they do this is because of proverty. They are so poor (they live in ghana) that they sale their own children. This needs to be put to a stop.Many people are against it and I am to. Why does the government allow this happen? Most of the children being sold are btween the ages of 3-14 and they are mostly boys. I think this is ridiculous, but how can we change this?

Chidren Slavery
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


Chidren from southwest Ghana are sold by there parents into slavery. Parents usually sell there children because they are poor. They sell there children from 100$ to 5$ (in extreme cases). Most of these chidren die. This is Truly sad.

2. Why dont they put there chidren in a orphanage?

involuntary trafficing
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


involuntary traficing is a very bad thing to do to people. i dont think that it was right to take people from there home town and moved them to where ever and treat them like they want to.
1. why do they do this?
2. do the people like when they do it?
3. if you dont go will they kill you?

Xenophobia and Discrimination
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


The article's topic was based on xenophobia and discrimination. The article was talking about how a man named Simon attented a christmas party that was organized by the manager from work. The people who also attented were some of his friends. Simon stayed in a small group of people that consisted of students, engineers, IT specialist, lawyers, and laboures. They were all having a good discussion until it became political. A man named Phil introduced his thoughts of manners. He stated that he can't believe those bastards killed our children in Bali. Kick them, send them back to where they belong. They can't fit in with our, the Australian. Simon stated his opinion about what Phil said and Simon asked Phil you are trying to say that we should deport, kick out, detain every single Muslim and person who doesn't fit into of society? You are telling me that al Muslims are terrorist and all of them hate us? Phil said yes. Simon felt as though that was vey ignorant and discrminating because he felt like all Muslims aren't terroist and everyone should be treated equally. He also thought that people discriminating other people was over and thar was over a hundred yeas ago.

Do you think what Phil said was worng?

Do you think other people think that all Muslims are terrorsits?

Are their more people like Phil still out there?

Does discrimination still exist agianst other races?

What can we do to prevent it?
