Hi!, the topic of today's class is talk about tv or not tv. This is something that I had wondered myself too, and when I was younger I watch a lot of tv, I mean not only cartoons and that stuff but a lot of channels where you could watch reality show's, farandula programs, news, game show, humor show, etc. But to me it was exhausting to see that, all I could feel was rejection, because I couldn't believe that all day reporters dedicate their time and profession to talk about others people's life.

In 2011,  I ask to my parents if I could kick off of my room the tv, this, because I didn't use it and it was only take up space from the bedroom and also it was an old old tv hahah. So from that moment I don't have tv in my room. But from others tv of the house I watch series and movies, that I think is my hobby hahaha.

About the influence of TV on people and society I think is very strong, people are used to watch tv, somethings people  watch tv all day, and tv as a media of information gaves them the wrong information about situations that are happen or somethimes tv acts like a media that cause panic and fear, on the news the only thing that people watch are bad things and crimes, a lot of crimes. I think that this is what makes people feel vulnerable, think about the others like criminal with some hate to them and follow a stigma that on the contrary to make society better and more united the only thing that does is make it worst 

I hope people realized that our reality is different of what tv shows us, and that there is always two faces of the coin and we must to get the information from other means, not simply stay with what is given to us,



I hope you have a good day!

I have to say that I'm very sad about the elections of United States. The truth is that neither Trump nor Clinton are good choices, the people must think, in the moment, in the lesser evil. But now one is the results and people can't change that.

What I think about Trump is that he has the power to make some changes, and this changes is going to affect everyone. I can't support people who talks about immigrants in a racist way, I can't support discrimination, sexism and the violation of human rights, and all these describe the politics that Trump want to impulse. Its sad for me to think that in our times when it supossed that we are so advanced and humanity is not like used to be, exist people (like Trump and all the people that support him) that still want this things.

I think that the impact that this would have in the other countries is goint to be considerable, USA has always be a referent for many countries, or more thant referent, a country that has the power to exploit the others. Maybe many countries has going to follow the lead that this guy want. I hope this is not the scene that we are goint to live.

I really hope that people can see that we can't live in a world with this mind, because we are all different and we have to accept that and try to work together

My future work

Well, this is something that I have ask myself many times. Like I told you before, I'm studying social work and I definitely know that this is what I want and that this is the area where I wanna to be and work. But is hard to choose one thing when you (I mean, me) want to try to change many things, to work in many places to contribute and work with others, but I can't deny that are some areas that I like the most.

In social work, and in society, it is very important how we refer to another person. Most cases dealing with this profession are faced with a person who all his life has been treated through lack, as if something was wrong with her, without question our system, programs or public policies. And I believe that results within the prison system reflect this. But this has to change.

Since I was on school I have been interested in the prison system and the function that has actually, public policies are not enough and the conditions that exist within prisons are very poor and deficit, and this leads to that there is not incentive for the people, to this is added that there are no support programs out of jail and when they leave prison, they are already stigmatized. This is something big in our society, and it is something that I wan't to change, I'm not saying that I, as a future social worker, I'll have the right answers but I have the desire to work to change the structures of society in which we live today, where one of his most direct reflections is the prison system.
