Moodle Tasks

1.-  It's located in what looks like an underground garage or maybe a closed alley, it is most likely in australia due to it's message being "Asians out of Australia", it's a clear message of discrimination and racism towards the Asian race, meaning that the people who wrote that message don't want Asian people in Australia, most likely due to poor "not liking them". Target audience is most likely (inference) asians themselves, making direct confrontation on to them.

2.-

There is no clear location from this poster in the image, though it is possible to think that it is from an english speaking country or directed to them, due to it being in english. It's target audience is young people, most likely teenagers. This can be found at: "Youth against racism".

3.- He's not really different in many ways, he just has a different culture, therefor a most likely different way of living. In order for someone like him to fit in a society like ours in here is most likely adapting to the way of living there is in here. Sure, there might be some racist insults from some people, but that's just the least minority, depending on the sector.

4.- I don't really recall many discriminatory incidents going on the school, at least not something like an event, I most likely remember nicknames being put into some people (and some still have some nicknames, not necesarilly approven by them), based on their head size, hair color, arms length, along with any other physical difference, but not really a specific event concerning discrimination or racism.


5.- "Can you honestly say that I'm better than you or you are better than me, just because we have different hair color, just because our skin may be lighter or darker than each others? The value of a human being isn't based on how tall they are, how dark they are, if they're eyes are light, or if they're eyes are dark, the value of a human being can be based on their actions, how they go about through life, doing the right thing and contributing to make this world a better place. Is it possible to say that just because my skin may be lighter or darker, I will not do the right thing, or I will do the right thing? Not acceptable, we cannot base physical traits onto traits that are of integrity of the human being, there is no correlation. Yeah, I'm blonde, I have blue eyes, I'm white, I have friends who are may be dark skinned, with dark eyes, but we're the same! And we walk together, and we talk together, and we go eat together, but I see no difference among us. Maybe other people do, and maybe that has to do because this people do not have the integrity to see the one priority is what they are on the inside. Racism is a form of discrimination. Saying that somebody who has a different skin color is better, or worse than another, is the same as saying "You know what? he's better than me because he has a bigger car", or "he's better than me because he's a man, and I'm a woman", this are physical traits, this are not what make the value of a human being. So as a message to all, NO to racism, NO to sexism, and NO to discrimination" - Juanita Larrain

6.-Perks of being a wallflower talks about sexual orientation discrimination and sexism, it applies to sexual orientation due to one of the characters being gay and having people laugh about him due to this, and it also falls under sexism "since in the book some of the girl characters seemed to be seen as ignorant or too innocent".
