Street art

Creativity and color are in all the streets of the city of Argentina. Street art is a way to express feelings and thoughts rather than and form of vandalism. Graffiti have the power to raise the voice of those people who are marginalized, and give a view of what’s going on. Graffiti make the neighborhoods look full of color and make a clean wall a piece of art. In conclusion, street art in Argentina have a big impact on the society because have the purpose of stimulate the people to think about politics and other topics that are strong connected with the reality in what they live.

Racism

According to the video “Discriminación en Colombia”, I think that Mariana Rondon would say that in despite of Colombia is multicultural country and we are people that come from a mixture of race, we also see racial discrimination against afro-Colombian people. And this fact is evidenced in the few chances that some members of this communities have in the workplace. It is sad that only two from 100 young people have the opportunity to study in a university. In order to improve the harmony in our society we should respect people differences, and understand that your skin color doesn’t make you better or worse than someone else.  

Intercultural Communication

Hi! my name is Maria Angelica Barraza. I'm currently a student of civil engineering at the Universidad del Norte. My favorite thing to do in my free time is to watch movies. Also, I enjoy listen to music, read and travel. Actually, earlier this year I have the opportunity to visit some places here in Colombia and Ecuador with my family. The tour lasted about 15 days, and it was really great. We visit cities like Medellin, Cali, Pasto, and finally Quito. I have to say that the city I liked the most was Quito. The people there is really friendly, and there are many places to visist and learn about the culture.
