Playlist hamlet song 1: Rafael Ramirez and Maria Alejandra Perez

Fix you

 A Coldplay song that was written by all the members of the band for Chris Martin ex girlfriend called, Gwyneth Paltrow when his father died. This can relate to hamlet because when ophelia father (polonius) died she felt very afflicted and was really sad. It got to the point that she was strapped to a restrain shirt and was thought to be insane. Both stories relates in the way that both girls felt the gap of a missing a father. 

The song Fix You says, "When you try your best, but you do not succeed. When you get what you want, but not what you need." This relates with Hamlet because he got what he wanted killing "his uncle" but he did not obtain what he needed because instead he killed Ophelia´s father. 

the song also says "When you lose something you can't replace, When you love someone, but it goes to waste" This also relates to ophelia because she lost her father and that can not be replaced, she also loved hamlet but due to his thirst for revenge he became obsessed with killing his uncle and all the love ophelia had went to waste. This is why we picked this song as part of our playlist and related it to hamlet.

Anger sonnet

Anger is usually a low damper
Its a long scream from a long frustration
And it feels like a brief, fierce mutation
It is a low tramper in your weak head

And fighting rage is a loud struggle
Yet most people just ignore the guggle
The tramper fades and you feel a scamper
Everything you love is now forever gone

Now just accept a new life just began
But you just sit there reminiscing
And everything feels dizzy and fizzy
You were busy and your life was breezy

And yet it wasnt your fault, or was it?
It changed you and you can never go back.

Russia is out of the G8

The G8 is an international organization formed by the eight wealthiest countris around the globe. This elite group is in charge of analyzing and trying to solv global crises on a lower scale than the UN.  Russia was recently expelled from the G8 due to the crimean crisis, to me this builds more tension between Russia and the US. Russias actions are not being approved and they are being expelled or threatened to be expelled by several international organizations, but is this really a good thing?

The G8 is the first international organization to officially expell russia from activity but if this continues more organizations will follow. Russia just legally nationalized 250,000 people from crimea and already declared crimea as theirs. If the organizations keep kicking them out instead of finding a peaceful way Russia wouldnt have to respond to anyone and could cause a war between a lot of countries. Russias actions are far from good but instead of kicking them out organizations shoul try to go with a more diplomatic way and solve this peacufully.

Economic hitman impact

The economic hitman that work for the united states have had a huge impact in our world and in how power is distributed. John Perkins explained how since about 1950s the USA governent started to hire economist to go to developing countries and convince their leaders to invest in american industry and helping their own country to become industrialized. This lead to mass debt from the countries and this secured they would be forever in both moral debt and economic debt to the united states. Perkins said this plan was funded by the government but if plan A did not work they would launch a 3 step plan that would almost always lead to success.

The second plan was only launched if the governor of the country would not invest in america or in industrializing the country. The plan was to send CIA hired assassins to kill the governor and if that did not work military action would be taken to overthrow the ruler. The american nation managed to build an empire without terrenal borders just imaginary .This was the way the plan worked and how the US got so much power and became a modern day empire.

post 2, what are the power privileges

This privileges are the ones we earn even unconsciously in the society we live in today. The best example is in race where white people get the most advantage in most fields, the best example is in job searching where even if two possible employees have the same quality one could get the job just for his "race". This happens because throughout the years white people have violently imposed on many cultures and have created a fake image of superiority. This left an impact that can even be felt today in small things like job searching. We can conclude the fake superiority image white people has had a massive impact on the entire world and is still felt today.

The "race" advantages have been decreasing over the years but even if they are minimised they can still be felt. Even though the perspective on other "races" like black have changed they still go from one extreme to another, in the movie the power of an illusion we see how people think black people are better athletes just for stereotypes and how it is believed white people are smarter and more likely to succeed. This shows that society went from one extreme to another from underestimating to overestimating different kind of "races". We learn that even things that happened many years ago still have an impact on todays society.

Prompt 1, what is race ?

race is defined as a group of people who share the same language, history,characteristics but can race really be defined or is it just a made up human concept to separate us from each other. In the film the power of an illusion we see that the differences from human DNA are 85 percent within the same "race" and not within the other "races". This means that we are barely different from other people and  that the "races" we claim exist are just classifications of people by biological features like skin color, hair color, head shape, etc. This shows us that race does not exist and can't be classified, this proves race was just and invention to have social benefits and live better than others. we can conclude that race is a thing made up by man and it can't be classified other than by biological features.

So why did man create this race system to separate each other ? for power and money off course because there is no other clear reason. In the movie the power of an illusion we see how because blacks were used as slaves they got ill and were weak and the became an abused group of people, white people classified them as black and forever saw them as inferior in most aspects of life. White people took advantage of this and using law in their favor made black people suffer for countless years even until the day of today the impact is felt. This again proves race is just an invention for power and money. We can conclude that Race is unconventional and any use of this old system should be deleted it would also help if we stopped calling race things that are not race so we could spread equality and a fair world.

Hamlet post 2: impact on my life to be or not to be

To be, or not to be: that is the question .This line has an impact in life because it is the doubt that most people have when deciding important things. To be or not to be is a phrase that represents all the fear we are able to feel in life. The line means to be able to do something or to restrain yourself from doing it. This line goes far beyond everything and can be used for any doubt you have in lyour life and lets you see hat it is better to do things you are afraid of than to restrain yourself from doing them because of some kind of fear.
