1.- Racist Graffiti:

Probably located at some city near the frontier with Mexico, it aims to all the inmigrants that come from southamerica, you can clearly see the purpose behind the graffiti is to, somehow, intimidate the "Latinos" to leave the country.

2.- Anti-racist poster:

Found anywhere on the internet, propably as a sign or at TV. The idea is to communicate everyone that sees it to, as it says, "stop racism from invading football"

3.- Photo of a teen Muslim:    

She is “different” to me because of her religión, we can see that she is a muslim, i think that she might find hard to fit in the chilean society, nota all, but there are a lot of people that dont like being closet o people who are different and cant even trust people who have different race/religión/appeareance.

4.-  Incidents at school

I will not refer to just one incident, there are a lot of students at our school that are bullied because of their weight, this topic is kind of cliché, but its something real, its something that is happening until today.

5.- What is Racism?

racism is the lack of tolerance, and the lack of tolerance against or about the human being is a thing that not olny affects convivence but also the dignity of people, the worst is that it focuses on the physical appareances of the person, and this action finally lead to extreme movements that affect the convivence and democracy on the civilicized world. (Opinion of Miss Juanita Larraín)

6.- Movie about Racism:

12 years a slave: I mean, its clearly about racism, its about a free african-american, who is a violinist, who literally gets kidnapped and sold as a slave, totally ignoring all of his rights as a citizen. There , at the plantation where he is forced to work, he has to face the cruel reality of almost every african-american of the time, doing unpaid work, from sun to sun and without enough food to stay on his feet all day. At the movie we can see how they are treated by the white men and how they fight for their freedom.

Letter to a friend

Hey dude, 

As you know I'm a fan of rugby and I've played it for almost five years. Also, you know that it's not a sport where you can't get injured, so here's the thing, I was playing and on a rug someone hit me on the nose, and it broke. It was not a very good view with all the blood on the ground and in my hands, but I'm okay, it doesn't hurt at all!

Well, this happened during a trip so I didn't go to the hospital immediately, I didn't took too much care of it, I said "when I go back to Viña I will go to the hospital"... Bad idea.

Now I just came back from the doctor and, guess what? I need a surgery, yeah, but like I'm two months, my nose is a bit crooked to the left. 

The operation is basically breaking it again and putting all the pieces back in place. 

Hope to see you soon!
