Talking about the graffitis video, it reflects what people truly think about the society, personal and meaningful experiences, that are portrayed in the street. Why there?? because it's what the people feel and see in daily experiences. In the case of Colombia, it's mostly seen at the slums, as they represent most of the population in that city.

The article (http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2014/03/21/photo-essay-bangkoks-mexican-gangsters) shows a cultural appropiation in the appeareance of the Latin gangsters, but not their violent attitudes towards people. Clothes, rings, chains and shaving are most of the cultural appropiation made by the asians. their differences are the lifestyles behind the Latin gangsters and the Asian gangsters. while in Asian gangsters show decent lifestyles, susch as doctors, assistants and others, Latin gangsters do it because is a way to survive everyday.

About this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiGKIO722HA), whose main topic is racism in Colombia, I have only one thing to say: Education. Is a right, not a privilege. so, if they want to study, the must have the true will to study, because I´ve seen soooo many cases where black people in Colombia don't have the resources, but they have so much will to be someone in this life, that they do almost the impossible to study, and they have succeeded. so THERE IS NO EXCUSE. this is the cause of those poverty, illiteracy and murdering statistics and statements. I am sure that you'll think that murdering doesn´t have relation with education, while in fact is the opposite, the more educated you are, the more you know about what is good and what is bad. this quote sums it all up:
Thank you for your attention.

Today is my first proper post. I didn´t think about a topic, so i´m just gonna talk about myself. My name is Luis Felipe Simmonds, I have 20  years ( SMH i'm old!), I study Industrial Engineering at Universidad Del Norte and it has been 3 years since I begin with this tormentuous and painful, but amazing journey in my life, that consists pretty much of seeking my future and having a blast in the uni. My topic for today for you to discuss is: do you enjoy the Uni??? despite the studying issues, you still have spare time to relax?? comment about this. have a great day!!
