Into Spellbound

1. Every single person in the movie spellbound wants to win the spelling bee for different reasons. Winning is specially important for Neil. This is because according to spellbound he has been studying the hardest and he also has a lot of pressure from his parents.For him winning is practically an obligation. Indian culture demands excellence in everything in life this means that Neil must feel pressure to win the national spelling bee because he thinks that if he doesn't he will bring shame to his family. As I could tell from the film his family is native of the Indian region of Goa, which is the only christian region in India, this region is also known to be the one with best education in India. These cultural backgrounds must fill Neil with fear of losing because if he loses he will feel that he let down his family and his country. Also Neil has studied really hard and if he loses he will feel that he wasted a lot of effort.

1. After watching some scenes of spellbound I concluded that spelling bees are not necessary. I got to this conclusion because it is pointless that people put so much pressure in kids for something so ridiculous as spelling. It would be the same as if they did a similar nation wide contest on basic arithmetic skills. Spelling is something basic in life there should be no spelling bee because there is simply nothing extraordinary about spelling. It would be like a nation wide contest of babies learning to walk, it is simply something a normal person needs to know for life. Spelling bees are also ridiculous because they put too much pressure on their kids. The pressure these kids feel is almost as if their lives depended on them winning.

Malala Yousafzai A Real Hero

Malala Yousafzai was only eleven years old when she begun writing a diary for BBC urdu using the fake name. In this diary she described the situation of  the swat valley in northwest Pakistan.In it she describes the radicalism in which these fanatics rule over other people triying to impose their extreme version of the muslim sharia law on ohers by force. Malala describes these events in some of her entries. In one othe them that was written on January 13, 2009 she describes how afraid she is of going to school because the Taliban have banned females from getting any kind of education. She also shows she is afraid when she tell that on her way home a man yelled “I am going to kill you”. Luckily he was talking on the phone and was threatening someone else. Another proof that the Taliban are radicals is the fact that hey banned girls from using colourful clothes. This is also described in her diary. Malala also describes how the Taliban are radical in a misogynous way. She describes this in the entry she expresses that she might not go to school again, because the taliban issued an edict that banned all females from receiving education. Malala has shown that the taliban are religious fanatics who think that they are always right.

Malala started writing her diary when she was eleven. She started doing this with her father´s support who said that it was a risk but it was a greater risk not to say anything about the horrible situation that the Swat Valley was living. In this diary she describes how sharia law is enforced by the Taliban in ridiculous ways. In 2009 she started to appear in tv as a women's rights defender in Pakistan. Last year she was nominated to the International Children's Peace prize and last year she was awarded a national peace prize in Pakistan. This national prize was later re-named after her. After being able to speak out in a society that is filled with fanatic indoctrination she truly deserved those awards. Malala Yousafzai was shot last week in a murder attempt by the Taliban, but the doctors say that she is now out of danger, and local journalist Faryal Guhar said that this murder attempt will only give strength to Malala´s voice.

Pakistani Activist Girl Shot

      As she was on her way home from school 14 year old Malala Yousafzai was shot by a taliban militant. This is due to the fact that she had been writing a diary about life under the Taliban in Swat Valley in northwest Pakistan. She had been writing this diary anonymously. She revealed her true identity when the Taliban were evicted from the region. Pakistani Taliban militants reported to BBC that they tried to murder Malala Yousafzai for being anti-Talibán and secular. Although other girls were with Malala at the moment of the attack, and one of them was shot to there are two versions of the events. The first version states that a van stopped and a bearded man called Malala´s name before shooting her in the head. The other version says that the girls were getting in a bus when they were attacked. Despite the events doctors say that Malala is out of danger and will recover.

 The fact that the Pakistani Taliban wanted to kill a harmless girl shows without any doubt that this is a radical fanatical group. First the Taliban have a history of terror and radicalism. Eleven years ago the ruled Afghanistan. During this time period they forced women to wear the burqa which covers the entire body and face, and bombed Buddhist statues in Afghanistan. They also made it against the law to listen to any kind of music. These radical points of view inspired a brave girl such as Malala to write a diary describing the situation to BBC urdu. The fact that Taliban followers tried to kill Malala Yousafzai only confirms that the Taliban are radical and short minded fanatics that think they are always right. This is confirmed by the fact that they publicly admitted to have tried to murder this girl, and more shockingly the reasons why they did it. They tried to murder her for being secular a

               I have never lost jewellery ,or being expelled from school for hitting the principal. But I understand that people who go through these experiences. People who lose jewellery with sentimental value tend to get aggressive towards the person who took it away. This would explain why someone would hit the school principal this way. Afterwards Marjane's mother said that she feels worried that her child would be raped and then executed. This is a natural horror for any parent.

               The fact that it was forbidden to use jewellery and other similar items in school is comparable to how the Taliban enforce their radical view of the sharia law in the same way the fundamentalists did in Iran. The scene where Marji points out that her teacher is telling a lie about political prisoners is comparable to good moments we have all had in which we correct the teacher. In the next pages it is shown how her family worries that her attitudes might get her executed in the future. This can be compared to situations in which your parents tll you not to talk about a specific subject.

            When Marji´s parents decide she must go to Austria is comparable to how many people are moving out of Venezuela for security reasons. Also you can see the act that Marji and her parents are nervous and sad. Her parents because they are sending their child away, and Marji because she is going to a place where she does not really know anyone. And none of them know if they will ever see each other again. This is comparable to situations in which a parent has to give his child to an adoption agency for many different reasons.They are all scared and sad because they do not know if they will ever see each other again.

    This chapter reminds me of Colombia a little. Here in Colombia unfortunately there are people who manufacture  fake passports. But in persepolis the want a fake passport for Marjane´s uncle who was ill and needed treatment in England. Here in Colombia people made these fake documents to smuggle drugs into other countries . The fact that the place where these documents were being manufactured was destroyed doomed the uncle. Ironically  his real passport arrived the day of his funeral.

This chapter also reminds me of a case in which a man was waiting in line for medical treatment and died. This is comparable to the fact that uncle taher´s passport arrived the day of his funeral.The fact that this man was not able to receive medical treatment is really similar to uncle Taher´s case.The fact that the “passport manufacturers” were hiding a communist woman in their basement is comparable to political persecution here in Colombia. People often had to hide just for their political beliefs.

  This chapter of persepolis reminds me that in some countries there was political persecution. A few years ago there was political persecution here in Colombia. Many people like Marjane´s uncle Anoosh looked forward to go live in another country because people here with certain political view were being murdered. The man disguised as a sheep reminds me of how latin americans try many different crazy things in order to get to the United States. These people will try to disguise themselves to pass illegally through the border just like people escaping Iran at this time. This Hyperlink will talk about political persecution in Iran.

The scene where Marji´s crush announces that he is going to the US,reminds me of some years ago when the situation here in Colombia was so bad that many people left. This is also shown in the scene where most of her family leaves Iran. The part where they tell Marji that Anoosh went back to Moscow in order to not tell her he is in prison reminds me of when a pet dies and you are young. They do not tell you he is dead, they tell you that he ran away. The part when Anoosh is executed as a russian spy reminded me of some cases where the Colombian military murder civilians and then dress them up as Guerrillas.

         As described in this chapter of persepolis often, when a dynasty is overthrown it is replaced by another dynasty. This is what happened between Marjerine´s ancestors and the Shah´s father. Something else I noticed was that her grandmother had to live through poverty because the Shah´s father took everything away from them. Often deposed royal families are then forced to live through poverty, a good example of this would be when the russian Czar was overthrown, he and his family were forced to live in Siberia as common people before their execution. This is also comparable with the revolution Iran went through in this time period. This Hyperlink is a good example.

Revolution Example

        I also connected the fact that the Shah´s father visited Cyrus the great´s grave with other megalomaniac leaders who visit important historical figures in their graves to try to make a point. A good example of this is the Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez taking out Simon Bolivar´s bones from his grave. Both leaders did thi to in a way try to compare themselves with these remarkable people to gain popularity. Another connection with leaders I can make is the fact that the Shah´s father spent a lot of money in celebration of anniversaries. Castro does that to distract people of the bad situation of Cuba.

      Another comparison I made was when Marji´s father does not come home on time. The families of people who serve in the army live in the same kind of stress because they do not know if their loved one will return. Another comparison I made was between how people treated as a martyr a man who died of cancer. The most shocking thing of this is that his own wife started to speak of him as a martyr. Either they just wanted to make a political statement of they were criticizing the health system.

I have never been in a situation where I have to dress in a specific way by law. However I can see  how muslim women who are forced to wear the veil feel. I can understand why some devout muslim women would protest in favor of the Islamic veil, and others would protest against it. On this chapter I see again that the modern way of thinking ,and conservative religious values disagree  regarding many subjects. These subjects include dressing. This is specially shown when Marjane said that she is deeply religious but very avant garde. Here is a Hyperlink about the Islamic veil in France.

Banning of the Islamic Veil in France

 


  Another thing that was mentioned in this chapter, and I experienced was a child´s foolishness. This little girl wanted to become a prophet at an age we all want to become something that is not normal. One thing I can relate to in this chapter is the fact that some people went out into the streets and protested against the veil. This reminds me of when I wa part of a massive demonstration there was against the FARC. I also connect the fact that Marji wants to become a prophet later in life with some people who have been great religious leaders ever since they where born. A good example of this is Indian prince Siddhartha Gautama, who was later known as Buddha. Both he and Marji had the same aspiration of becoming a good influence on the world.

Another thing I can connect this to is when her grandmother plays along and tells Marji that she will be her first disciple. I can connect this to when we were younger and had foolish childish fantasies and our surrounding adults just played along with us. In the scenes where Marji talks with God, can be compared to imaginary friends that ost of us had when we where younger.

                               This tablet talks about how Gilgamesh and Utnapishtum met. Gilgamesh asks to Utnapishtim how did he obtain eternal life. Then Utnapishtim tells him the story of how, thanks to a voice he heard through his walls he was able to achieve eternal life. The voice tels him that the gods will create a great flood and that he has to build a boat with a couple of each living thing. This story is strikingly similar to the story of Noah´s Arc. Then he and his wife gon tinto the boat. Afterwards it rained for six nights and seven days. After the flood they arive at mount Nisir, really similar to mount Ararat in the Bible. Afterwards Utnapishtim frees a Dove like in the Bible. Then the gods grant him and his wife eternal life. Besides the similarities with the Bible, the story of Utnapishtim teaches that with a great acomplishment, comes an even larger reward.

                                          After this Utnapishtim tells Gilgamesh that he must go through a test to.The ocean Mist sleeps Gilgamesh. Every day Utnapishtim´s wife would leave water near Gilgmesh, for seven days. The first one was really bad, the next one was rottern but  little better. Every day the water got  a little better until one day it was fresh. This day Utnapishtim touched Gilgamesh on the fore-head and Gilgamesh wok up. After this Utnapishtim tells Gilganesh to get a plant, jis reward, this plant is in the sea. After a boatman adorned Gilgameh with ornaments worthy of the king of Uruk, they both went in search of it. Stoping every 20 leages to eat and thirty to rest the night. But after all this effort a snake took the thorny plant. Disapointed they went back to Uruk. The story of the snake also remids me of the story of Adam and Eave in the Bible,because thanks to a snake´s corruption they where not able to liv in paradise. This teaches nus that even after a great effort, things might not work out after all.

Ishmael Questions

                         1. What I think quinn implies by takers is that "civilezed" or western people take the gifts from nature and that we are abusing of her gifts. Also that we as the Taker culture think that everything is for us and therefore we are taking      what we should not and that we are doing so because we are to much  into our dream.


                         2. The relationship between Ismael and the protagonist has changed because at the begginig the protagonist had alot of doubts, but now he is asking questions and Ishmael has told him the story of his life so this way this relationship is much  mor confident and open for discussion 

                 
                        3. Three inference regarding the "Leavers"
i: The first inference is that leavers are called this way because they left everything in its place and they choose to live in harmony with nature.

ii: My second inference about the leavers is that they all have everything in common becuse they all have a similllar way of life in tribal fashion.

iii: Another inferece is that leavers have a different way of thinking is different than the takers way of thinking. Leaves worship nature and takers take advantage of its.

                        4. Mother culture could be defined as a metaforic way of saying that culture dictates how we live and how we think. mother culture says that we have o adapt to her and tht we have to live acording to everybody elses terms and end up like hem.


                      5. I agree with Ismael because I to believe leavers leave things and takers take them. forming their cultures in this way.

Four Inferences on Picture

                                                   Inferences
             1. From this picture I infer that this picture depicts planet earth seen from somewhere else, but since there is no place like tis near planet earth I infer that it does not mean a fisical place but rather it tries to show haw fortunate we are to have a planet like this .

             2. I infer that this since the sun is just rising behind planet earth maybe it tries to tell us that this is a new dawn or planet earth and humanity. That this a fresh new start for our planet and us.

             3.I can also infer that what they try to tell us is that since the universe is s big and we are so small that maybe we should try not to act as if we ruled the universe because we do not know almot anything about the universe.

           4.Another inference I can do about this picture is that we are not alone in this universe. I made this inference thanks to two things. first our planet is being watched from another place with life, this could be a message saying that we are not alone. Another thig that made me make this inference is the other planet shown in the backround of the picture maybe they are telling us that we might not be the only planet with potential for inteligent life.
