Points of View of the Jew

Answer the following:
In what way does the text differ from the information presented in the video, in other words, explain how the 2 resources present information about the Holocoust but in a different way or from a different perspective?

In the two resources, the youtube video and the spanish new's of Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez, are different because they are two different point of view. In the case of the video it was more objective than the newspaper because it explains what Germany did with the jews, what Hitler did, the concentration camps, and how did they escape. In the case in the newspaper, talks about that german people killed and burned a culture, and it was replaced by the muslims. Muslims were welcome in Spain. They are differemt point of view in this two topics that are vert different.

What cultural elements called your attention? What is similar to and what is different from our Chilean culture?

There a lot of things that New Zealand and Chile have in common, but also many things are very different. One way these countries are similar is the love of their national sport, in this case rugby in New Zealand and football in Chile.

 Also they eat at different times than us (breakfast, lunch, dinner), which is earlier except for breakfast.

One of the differences is the social security, for example: When you leave a bike in a tree, in New Zealand that bike can be there for hours, days, weeks, and it will still  be there,  where as in Chile the bike will just be there for minutes or hours. 

The cultural elements were unbelievable  such as all the things that were at the Te Papa, that means "Our Place", also the name is made up of two classical expressions used in Maori poetry and song. The logo of Te Papa is a fingerprint to represent the identity if a person. 




In conclusion, the element that caught my attention was the Maori culture that had a connection with the Chileans Rapa nui Culture, at the Easter Island. Also that the Maori's live in a community with the 'Pakeha',which means the Europeans in New Zealand. I think that this friendship is really good.

What is it to be a New Zealander?

To be part of this community is very different to the Chilean one in almost all aspects, such as everyone is very nice (from my point of view).

Firstly, the people from New Zealand are very athletic, every day I see at least 10 people running, cycling, going to the gym, windsurfing and more. They also have a special diet, for example of my family eat everyday vegetables.

Secondly, they follow all rules as it costs, like pay alone the parking, be fair, they are also responsable and punctual.

Thirdly, I've noticed that New Zealanders are open minded for all the races that you can observe in this country, culture or even point of views.

Finally, something that caught my attention was that someone can leave a bike for weeks in a place and it will not be stolen, but in Chile it can be just hours and it will be already stolen. This community is very friendly and has an excellence education.

In conclusion, to be a New Zealander is to be Open-Minded, friendly, caring about the other people, be fair, do sport and follow the rules, also to be a New Zealander is very difficult for all the activities you have to do.

Dear Family,

Well I'm in Maycomb, and I just finished the day. In clasess I read a book to the kids, just some were interested. I noticed one of them called Jean Louise Finch, she was the most interested of all, she already knew how to read and write, that was unacceptable because someone had already teached her, what is the matter I have to repair. One boy, that was from the Cunningham's,did not brought food. Jean offered him some but he wont accept, I didn't understand why until the kid's explained to me. I was also insulted by an Ewell. This day of school was awfull. Hope everybody of you are okay.

With love,

Caroline.
