“Dream caused by the flight of a bee”

Inspired by a dream of his beloved wife and model Gala, Dream caused by the flight of a bee, is a visionary and surreal painting by Salvador Dalì.In this 1944 painting, Dalì illustrates the effect that an external stimulus, perceived while we are sleeping, produces on what we are dreaming. The forms are very recognizable and well detailed. The painting suggests that the event is the result of a dream. In the foreground appears a female figure lying, almost suspended on a rock, portrayed while sleeping naked, it is Gala, the artist’s companion. On his left there is a bee that buzzes around a ripe pomegranate, also suspended. To the right, instead, there is a bayonet that is about to prick the woman’s arm. At the top, instead, there is a huge pomegranate, a symbol of fury, which tears open, from which a large red fish emerges. From the jaws of the fish come out two tigers, which seem to pounce on Gala. In the background instead there is the presence of an elephant, with very long legs, similar to those of a spider, which carries an obelisk over its shoulders: it enters from the right walking and, with the lightness of a dragonfly, does not create any ripple on the ‘water. The title of the work is therefore linked to a dream caused by an external stimulus, felt during sleep. The woman hears the buzzing of the bee, which flew around her ear during sleep; this sound therefore generates the idea of ​​the sting represented by the bayonet. While the sense of danger causes the image of the two tigers, black and yellow like the bee. The other painted figures instead arise from a series of associations typical of the sphere of the unconscious, as often happens in Dalì’s paintings. The shadow that is projected between the rock and the sea surface forms a heart. For some critics it is a declaration of love of Dalì towards his partner and model Gala. The colors in the painting are faithfully related to the objects represented: the pomegranates have a beautiful ruby ​​red, while, the body of Gala is colored with an almost ivory-colored complexion. The sea, or in any case the surface on which the scene takes place is clear and crystalline blue. Lighting is cold and glacial.

They began to make the use of these substances beginning already from the first Olympics Games in Greece. The fight against doping begins after the death of the cyclist KNUD ENEMARK JENSEN that is an doped athlete at the Rome Olympics. The first results for the doping were after the discovery of another doped athlete in the Seoul Olympics: BEN JOHNSON

In the sport also Simone Biles that is a gymnast that dominated the world competitions of artistic gymnastics winning 4 gold medals in the Rio Olympics, was accused of doping in the Rio Olympics 2016. Therefore it is believed that she has competed under the effects of amphetamines… However Simone Biles in the doping tests brings the certificates where the federation authorizes her to take there substances due her problems, in fact after that she says that she is suffering from an attention deficit disorder syndrome.

I think that it is stupid to waste such an opportunity by taking such substance because at least for me it is already a goal to arrive at this competitions independently of the final results

Technology addiction and cyber kids

Technology addiction is when a person uses more his mobile phone or computer and he becomes dependent to them, and prefers using his instrument and not meet their friends.

This happen especially to young people, and the more the technology grow the more dependence increases. But the electronic instruments are also positive, for example:

  • A person can comunicate with another person in a few seconds
  • A person can do research on internet in a few time

Cyber kids is caused by smartphone and computer if you do bad use. The teen that are bullizzated usually haven’t more friends and they hide behind smartphone or computer. To help they, they want speak about this with their parents or teachers or with a friend.

THE PROS OF TEXING

  • It’s fast
  • It’s easy to make pians
  • It make distance disappear disappear
  • It feels like you’re never alone
  • The people can read it also after some hours
  • THE CONS OF TEXTING
    • You can’t see the people and in a communication 70% is comunicate through physical expression
      You can’t hear his voice

    To use more smartphone or computer causes depression and suicide, in my opinion it isn’t all true because causes depression and suicide the things that a teen do on smartphone or computer, not to use more them, because a person can uses them also to do another things not only use social media.

    The teens post on social media their life to share it with all the world and in my opinion this is true but you shouldn’t exaggerate.

    Other problem of cyber kids is the sexting. Sexting is sending sexually explicit messages, photos or video on mobile phone, computer or any digital device.

    IMMIGRATION African-Americans

    When captive Africans first set foot in North America , they  found  themselves in the midst of a thriving slave society. During most of the 17th and 18th centuries , slavery was the law in every one of the 13 colonies, the new United States . The importation of slaves was provided for in the U.S . Constitution , and continued to take place on a large scale even after it was made illegal in 1808. On arrival, most of the new captives were moved into holding pens , separated from their shipmates and put for auction.In the eyes of the law and of most non –African Americans , they had no authority to make decisions about their own lives and could be bought , sold , tortured , rewarded , educated , or killed at a slaveholder’s  will. With the Emancipation Proclamation , 1863 Lincoln ordered the freedom of all slaves in those  states  still in rebellion  during the American Civil War. Untill the thirteenth amendament to the U.S.Constitution in 1865, only the states had power to end slavery within their own borders , so Lincoln issued the proclamation as a war measure. Lincoln then sponsored a costitutional amendement to free slaves . The Thirteenth Amendment , making slavery illegal everywhere in the United States was passed late , eight months after Lincoln was assasinated .

    Schools , government buildings , and public places were segregate by race , and African Americans were routinely prevented from exercising their right to vote.The integration of the United States armed forces in 1948 gave many people new hope for progress. Soon a new generation of activists made it self known, demanding that the U.S. government provide all its citizens with the rights and protections  guaranteed by the Constitution. Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King made a difference .

    African Americans in the 1950s couldn’ t go to the same schools as white Americans. On buses and trains, they had to sit a different section from white passengers . African Americans had to go to different  hospitals and shops and they couldn’t eat in the same restaurants with white Americans.The law at the time said African Americans were ‘’separate but equal’’ so they had to live separate lives from white Americans.

    In 1955 in Montgomery , Rosa Parks ,an African American  woman , was on a bus on her way home from work . When she refused to give her seat to a white man , the bus driver called the police . The police arrested her and the Montgomery Bus Boycott began. 40000 African Americans boycotted  public buses for over a year . The protest only ended when racial segregation on buses stopped in 1956 . This  was the beginning of the Civil  Rights  Movement in the US. One of the leader of the Montgomery bus boycott was African American church minister, Martin Luther King . He became the leader of the Civil Rights Movement . The Civil Rights Movement wanted African Americans to have the same right to freedom  and equality as white Americans. Martin Luther King believed in non-violent protest and he organised many campaigns against racial discrimination .The police frequently arrested him , but he continued to protest. In 1963 , there was an important civil rights protest in Washington.

    Martin Luther King spoke to the people about his dream for the future: freedom and equality for all Americans.  He began with the words :’’I have a dream’’. In 1964 , he won the Nobel Price for Peace and in 1965, the American government made it possible for all African Americans to vote. Martin Luther King was assassinated in Memphis Tennessee in April 1968 ,but in july 1968 , the American government passed the Civil Rights Act and finally African American had the same rights as white Americans. The election of Barack Obama, the first black President, in 2008 did  not absolve the US of its racist  history . The fact of havig a black president unlocked new worlds of hope and possibility in millions of people-young  and old- who never imagined that such a thing was possible.

    RACISM

    Racism is the belief in the superiority of one

    race over another, which often results in discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity. The use of the term “racism” does not easily fall under a single definition.The ideology underlying racism often includes the idea that humans can be subdivided into distinct groups that are different due to their social behavior and their innate capacities, as well as the idea that they can be ranked as inferior or superior.[2] Historical examples of institutional racism include the Holocaust, the apartheid regime in South Africaslavery and segregation in the United States, and slavery in Latin America. Racism was also an aspect of the social organization of many colonial states and empires.

    While the concepts of race and ethnicity are considered to be separate in contemporary social science, the two terms have a long history of equivalence in both popular usage and older social science literature. “Ethnicity” is often used in a sense close to one traditionally attributed to “race”: the division of human groups based on qualities assumed to be essential or innate to the group (e.g. shared ancestry or shared behavior). Therefore, racism and racial discrimination are often used to describe discrimination on an ethnic or cultural basis, independent of whether these differences are described as racial. According to a United Nations convention on racial discrimination, there is no distinction between the terms “racial” and “ethnic” discrimination. The UN convention further concludes that superiority based on racial differentiation is scientifically false, morally condemnable, socially unjust and dangerous. It also declared that there is no justification for racial discrimination, anywhere, in theory or in practice.[3]

    Racist ideology can manifest in many aspects of social life. Racism can be present in social actions, practices, or political systems (e.g., apartheid) that support the expression of prejudice or aversion in discriminatory practices or laws. Associated social actions may include nativismxenophobiaothernesssegregationhierarchical ranking, supremacism, and related social phenomena.

    MARTIN LUTER KING

    Martin Luther king was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on January 15, 1929. Although the name “Michael” appeared on his birth certificate, his name was later changed to Martin Luther in honour of German reformer Martin Luther.

    As a king was growing up, everything in Georgia was segregated, 70 years after the Confederacy was defeat and blacks were later separated away from white people. This meant that black and white people were not allowed to go to the same schools, use the same public bathroom, eat at the same restaurant, drink at the sa water fountains or even go to the same hospitals. Everything was separate. However, the white hospitals, schools, and other places were usually much better than the places where black people were allowed to go.

    At the age 6, King first went through discrimination (being treated worse than a white person becausen he was black). He was sent to an all-black school, and a white friend was sent to an all-white school.

    Once, when he was 14, King won a contest with a speech about civil rights. When he was going back home on a bus, he was forced to give up his seat and stand for the bus ride so a white persone could sit down. At the time, white people were seen as more important than black people. If a white person wanted a seat, that person could take the seat from any African American. King later said having to give up his seat made him “the angriest

    I’ve ever been in my life”.

    King first started his civil rights activism in 1955. At that time, he led a protest against the way black people. He told his supporters, and the people who were against equal rights, that people should only use paceful ways to solve the problem.

    King speaking at the March on Washington, speaking his “I have a dream” famous Speech.

    I have a dream today. 

    I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its Governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. 

    This is my favourite peace of this famous speech.

    I like it because Martin has tough to the future and he has kicked me like a sunny day with its hot and lovely hair.

    Like a son I feel me loved by another people who isn’t my parents. His old dream, now is a little bit true because I am so happy to have a black friend who love me. We are friends thankful him and I must remember what he has done, also for my happy.

    King was chosen as a president of the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA), which was created during the boycott. Rosa Parks later said:”Dr. King was chosen in part because he was relatively new to the community and so he did not any enemies”. King ended becoming an important leader of the boycott, becoming famous around the country, and making may enemies.

    King was arrested for starting a boycott. He was fined €500, plus €500 more in court costs. His house was fire-bombed. Others involved with MIA were also threatened. However, by December 1956, segregation had been ended on Montgomery’s buses. People could sit anywhere they wanted on the buses.

    After the bus boycott, King and Ralph Abernathy started the Southern Christian Leardschip Conference (SCLC). The group decided that they would only use non-violence. It’s motto was “ Not one hair of one head of one person should be harmed”. The SCLC chose King as its president.

    While speaking from a balcony at the Lorrain motel in Memphis, Tennessee on April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King was assassinated.

    Red is my white’s blood,

    Animal, this black person is only an useless animal,

    Colour is not important to judge a people – black person

    “I have a dream, that my children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character”.

    Same like humans

    Martin Luther King has given us the free.

    CYBER KIDS

    The cyber bullying is to mock someone trough a social network such as whatsapp, instagram and facebook, so everybody can see it. Usually people mocked are those with physical defects or less cool than others or guys that haven’t the courage to defend their selves or to react, and sometimes they decide to go to live to another city or they can also suicide.

    Usually cyber kids post a video or a photo only to have more “like” and “views” or to be more popular than their friends on social networks.

    Nowadays there are a lot of campaign against cyber bullying in the school and this is a phenomenon that must be fought. Last year some policemen came to my school to talk about it and to show us videos of cyber bullying.

    The big difference between the bullying and the cyber bullying is that the second one is forever and it is spread in a very fast way .

    Few weeks ago I watched on television an episode of cyber bullying where two guys put a collar to another guy and they walked around with this teen in the airport with a leash, this video was shok.

    Nowadays social networks are very important to communicate with others in a fast way but it can also be dangerous if you don’t use it in the right way. All teens use every time and in every moment their phone to post something and to share photos with their friends, me too I use my phone a lot but I don’t like posting photos and it is difficult to spent time without my phone. Last week I went to Mexico with my parents and I didn’t use my phone for 5 days and it was wonderful because I did a lot of things instead to spent time with my phone.

    CYBER KIDS

    THIS BOOK SAYS TRUTH!

    The people are depending on phone, immediately when we recive

    a like on Istagram, Facebook or other social media, we are happy.

    We think that if we haven’t this social media we are missing out. The book

    talk about FOMO (fear of missing out), but the true friends will not

    exclude you. I have a social media (Istagram) and i prove everything.

    I think that we exclude us from the realty.

    CYBER KIDS

    Technology in recent years is renewed and takes part in our daily life, as we have seen in th”Cyber Kids” series that the two kids Lizzy and Hank were dependent on social media. This still happens today especially for children aged 12 to16 years . This addiction means spending most of the day on a computer or on a phone, but fortunately the experts have opened these summer camps called “No-Tech”, a place without telephones and without computers to make the kids establish connections with children and those who understand that life is not behind a screen.

    Ciber kids

    Bullying is a crime and it can happen to you when you least expect it. It can manifasted by any means including the telephone, the band in which it occurs most is between 11 and 25 years old . The most used weapon is the phone.

    Sometimes they exchange personal photos between boys and this is where yuo get to the ciber kids. Luckily it never happened to me but even if I am a boy who does not open much, I would say this immediately
