the Philadelphia ANTI-FRACKING rally, September 2011


I never knew that these kinds of things are happening in your own back yard. I did not know about Fracting until a day ago and to think that this is going to happen in my home town is disturbing.  The most disturbing part is that there are a lot of people in Philadelphia and not that many show up for this rally;not because they do not want to help but they do not know about it. This just proves Noam Chomsky to be right when he talks in his book Media Control majority of the population are the "bewildered herd" and the other part are the "selective class" which makes up a few of the population in society. He also talks about how  the government  works hand-in-hand with the media. He further discuss in the beginning of his book how Walter Lippmann says that you only need a few people to know everything and tell the rest what they need to know, which does give the majority much say  on issues. If people in Philadelphia knew about these kinds of things they would take precaution against what they are trying to do. The public not knowing much about this works at the government advantage of course which makes it difficult for people to find out much on issues that are important to there City.

Disney??? Not Disney!!

The movie about Walt Disney was a real shocker. I could not believe that my favorite childhood stories were racist. I was even more shocked when cultures sued or try to sue Disney for their actions. A lot of things were brought to my attention that I never thought about when watching Tarzan, Aladdin or any other classic movie. For example Tarzan was shown first with the White boy in Africa and the Black people were the ones in the back ground, which is ironic because Africa is a primarily Black country. I was even more blown away with the song Arabian Nights, that suggested that Arabs way of living was barbaric. This is also ironic considering what European Americans would do to anyone who was not of "Pure" White descent: Slaves , Inequality in education, I would say they acted in the most barbaric way, police had to guard innocent children from not being beat up by adults during Civil Rights Movements with army tanks. This picture is the picture of the 1957 Central High School.I’m not saying all European Americans are bullies and insensitive to the living conditions many cultures have to face because of the torment they gave people about things as little as education, what I am saying is a lot of them are. The other thing worth blogging about was the different cultures that are not be featured in Disney characters. Constantly you see blonde hair, blue eyes adorable little girls, you rarely see Hispanic, Blacks, Native Americans, and Asians.When children look at this it programs them into  thinking who they should be like, for example a black girl with naturally curly hair want long straight hair which is something she is never going to get. Since she seen it a lot in movies or in her favorite TV show this is what she wants. She does not realize that every little girl is not the same and that it is okay to be different. Blacks are also shown disrespectful, loud, under achieve, rarely has both parents. Hispanics are always shown to be promiscuous and under achieve. Native Americans are shown to have only had certain body parts cover and say “how” all the time, and Asians have squinted, eyes and are sneaky.  Not the white counter parts, they are always shown to be with a family with parents who are always married, loving nice people, always wanting to help, and innocent. How they depict their characters is intentional but why? Why do these shows lie to our children and change how they think of their family. What gives Disney the right to make people think the bad things of these cultures is a representation of these cultures as a whole. They make it as if “white” is the ultimate race, the best color, the symbol for purity, everything that is considered good they have a part of. Which it is not true or fair. Everyone should be on the same level not one better than the other.
