Bangkok's 'Mexican' Gangsters

Hi again to everyone, I feel really exited. Today I am going to talk about a video I recently watched, this video shows a new trend that has emerged in Bangkok.

While watching this video, I start wondering ¿what would happen  if I start dressing like a U.S.gangster?, ¿would I look cool or would I look like a non identity person?, I realize that everything depends on your believes, on what you think. When i saw all those men walking like mexican gangsters, dressing like mexican gangsters and even acting like mexican gangsters, I said "oh men, anyone there has identity", but after finshed that video, I said "if they feel motivated and feel passion for that, I dont see any problem about identity". I have realized again that I have a long way up to understand cultures.

DISCRIMINATION IN COLOMBIA

Hi to everyone, today i'm going to write about the discrimination in Colombia, a big problem that has been affecting us for a long time. the statistics i saw in a video shows that 76% of afro-colombians are living in poorness, the 42% are unemployed, just 2 of every 100 afro-colombians reach the college, this kind of things dont have to be found in the today´s society.

Taking a deeper look into today´s society, the most of homeless people you can find are not blondes or white people. Those who ask for the daily coin to buy a bread, those who are always looking in where are they going to sleep, those who you always find with a sad look, those are afro-colombians, but what are all those afro-colombians, inferior people?

For a long time i have been wondering  why are the afro-colombians treat as animals, why is that discrimination?, if they are people that deserves to be treat as good as white man or a blonde woman. 

The discrimination in Colombia is making the country to stay, if the discrimination never ends our country is never going to develop, the afro-colombians are also our people, if e dont stop this who is going to do it?, lets end this resentment.
