MAKING A CHANGE

We have divided our project into three sections. The first section concerns historical events that have been dramatic for humanity, the second one is about the idea of “we” citizens of a whole world that belongs to all of us together, which brings us to the third part that is about the idea of helping each other in order to live better lives in a better world.

What we have seen here are images of ‘Anne Frank: The Whole Story’ and ‘Rabbit Proof Fence’, the two movies we have chosen, which are mostly about freedom since one of them showed the story of a jewish teenager during WWII and the Holocaust, and the other one was about, as we have seen, three little girls who were taken to be taught to be servants and tried to escape. Apart from this, ‘We Are The World 25 For Haiti’ by the supergroup Artists for Haiti, and, what’s more, ‘Heal The World’ by Michael Jackson have reflected peace and a way of making this world a better peaceful place by all of us coming together. Nevertheless, our songs were also about issues that are affecting countries all around the world and the importance of being aware of it and make a change: ‘Blowing In The Wind’ by Bob Dylan possessed many questions about war, peace and liberty and ‘Pray’ by Justin Bieber was about wars and natural disasters and the negative effects they have in both the Earth and our society.

So, in conclusion we are now aware of the obstacles Anne Frank and black people needed to go through in order to find freedom and avoid being hunted down because of their beliefs or race. Finally, we believe that the artists of the songs we have chosen composed these songs so that they could speak for the ones who can’t, and most of the lyrics were about the necessity of all the people in this world to come together as one and make a change.
