Brutus motivators

Brutus is known as a great noble man in the Roman as he always cares and thinks of his countrymen before himself. Therefore, the people of Rome respects and honor Brutus for his doings. One main role that Brutus did for Rome was, he thought he could save Rome by Caesar’s death, because as he was a friend with Caesar he knew that Caesar was a dictator for Rome. In addition, Honor and Patriotism is Brutus’s motivator, as he believes that Caesar’s death will save Rome and provide freedom.

Brutus values his honor most in his life as he thinks Caesar is like a dictator who will ruin Rome; therefore he believes in himself that he should be honorable for Rome. Also the people of Rome respects and honor Brutus for his doings as he is trying to save and care for Rome. Hence, Brutus is an honorable man who is confident in his doings, as he believes he is right. Brutus kills his friend not for his personal reason but for Rome, because he cares and loves Rome and wants to prevent freedom for his countrymen. (Act two, Scene1, line 163~183) In this quotation Brutus tells Cassius that they are not killing Caesar for their own personal reason therefore they shouldn’t kill Caesar violently. Moreover, Brutus says they are not butchers and should be called sacrificers, and so they should carve Caesar as a dish fit for the gods to prove to the Romans that they are healers and not murders. Brutus thinks that they shouldn’t be hiding themselves from killing Caesar, as he thinks the conspirators and he has done nothing wrong to be hidden. Therefore, he shows he is an honorable man by trying to face after killing Caesar, because he has no doubts to hide himself. Afterwards, the conspirators and Brutus killed Caesar he goes out to the capitol to face and show his honor toward Rome. (Act three, Scene two, line 13~32) In this quotation Brutus proves his reasons on why he has killed Caesar, and he says that it was because he loves his countrymen more than his friend. Moreover, Brutus asks the people of Rome to believe in him as he thinks he has done the right thing for Rome and has no doubt killing Caesar for Rome. Brutus is truly an honorable man who faces his challenges and always proves with evidence to show that he has done nothing wrong and has done goods for Rome.

Brutus is an honorable men and also patriotism, as he works on to prevent freedom for his countrymen and to keep save of Rome. Therefore, Brutus has joined the conspirators to stop Caesar from misusing his power and his dictatorship towards Rome. Brutus had joined the conspirator also to assassinate Caesar. (Act one, Scene2, Line 160~173) In this quotation, Brutus is slowly joining into the conspirator as he has hope to save Rome from Caesar misusing his power and dictatorship for Rome. This shows that Brutus truly loves his countrymen than his friend, and wants to protect Rome from any danger. In order to prove that Brutus has no personal reason toward Caesar, and is doing it for his country. (Act two, scene one Line11~33)

Collage script for Imovie and SLR Reflection

Collage script for Imovie:

This is my collage, showing the timeline of the conflicts and achievements the lost boys have been through their life. My six-word is “Despair, struggling alone. Is there hope?” The six-word memoir I wanted to express was the sufferings that lost boys have been through and the hope they got when they were migrating to America from the refugee camp at Kenya. I have used images of civil war that occurred between north and south Sudan, and by this conflict there is an image of death and people suffering. For this picture I have included the word ‘Death and Despair’ because this moment was the most suffering time that the lost boys have faced and so as the Sudanese people. Also, this picture was included to express the empathy for the lost boys.The country shape of Sudan’s picture is placed in my collage showing their forced migration to Kenya. The word “Struggling” I have included next to the forced migration sign was to demonstrate the struggling the lost boys have faced overcoming the death from getting caught by a lion and the army of North Sudanese. I have also included a picture of their daily life in Sudan before moving to Kenya. There are pictures of Sudanese gathered around and dancing with their community and mostly farming. Also, there’s a picture of an old man suffering from hunger, and dying from hunger as well. This picture was to portray in my collage to show that they were struggling even before civil war began. The arrow pointing toward the plane shows the lost boy’s migration to America, and as they were in the plane they felt they were going to heaven, therefore it gave them a hope to start a new life. The voice text “Is there hope” was in the lost boy’s mind when they were migrating to America, because for them everything was going to be brand new. Therefore, I have placed a flower and the sunshine picture to symbolize the meaning of hope. This part of my collage is very significant because achieving hope can actually lead you into totally different direction from losing hope. As the plane faces down to the down right hand corner, and it was pointing to the direction where they were migrating to. America. There is an American flag to show they have been migrated to America, and also to represent their daily life, suffering, and the achievements they made (around the flag.) The voice text ‘alone ‘was to express the feelings the lost boys have felt during their live hood in America. The lost boys were feeling left out, alone, and depressed because they were away from their home country. It was also hard for them to assimilate to a new culture when all the people around them were Americans. At the top right hand corner, there are symbols and pictures that are demonstrated to give a message to the audience to take an action in order to help the lost boys get hope. It is the peace sign and money. So take an action if you want to help them find hope, and remember achieving hope leads you into a totally different direction from losing hope!



SLR Reflection.

Think Creatively:

I have used different types of technique in order to show the meaning of my collage informing how pitiful the people are surviving in Sudan. I have used thick texture to express my six-word memoir, which was despair, suffering alone, is there hope? Moreover, I included a picture of Sudan’s flag and America’s flag to show their migrations. The other pictures showing lots of death and lost boys of famine are included to create empathy for the audience.

Reason Critically

I have used voice in my collage to show the lost boys’ characterization and the lifestyle they have been through. The voice texts are my six word memoir, because death and hope portrays a clear image of lost boys’ characterization which is brave. It is because even though it was hard for them to face their family and friend’s death by themselves they still got a hope to live a better life by overcoming fears at the end. Moreover, the symbols of hope such as heaven and sunshine were the thought they had before they started their new life at America.

Communicate effectively

The people who were suffering and overcoming death and hunger, I have used this picture to inform the awareness of the lost boys tragic and sufferings. Also I have shown the Sudanese people are still in danger in aspects by cutting the outline of the picture wavy (to show they are struggling.)

Live ethically

In the collage I have represented pictures and my six word memoir to express empathy for the lost boys and by this pictures and the voice text I have included shows the serious conflict in Sudan. Therefore I think by looking at my collage it will help the peoples mind to take an action in order to help lost boys find hope. Also I have putted peace signs and to donate money for the audience to start taking an action as they feel empathy for the lost boys.

The lost boys of Sudan

The lost boys from Sudan from the Dinka tribe had escaped from their country, because of the civil war that occurred between north and south Sudan. While the Dinka tribe fleed to Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya, they went through lots of sufferings with bad conditions. After some time, the lost boys had been chosen to migrate to America where they thought it was like going to heaven. Peter was one of the lost boys who got chosen to migrate to America and he has also dreamed of going to heaven. However, as time passed by Peter's mind started to change, it wasn't easy as he thought. Peter has faced lots of difficulties trying to assimilate into new culture, and to actually fit in the group. Moreover, Peter thought he was being unfair and burden to his friends because he wasn't getting paid enough from his work to share room with his friends, and because he thought he wasn’t achieving his goal which is to get an education, and therefore Peter leaves his friends and goes to Kansas. he thought that he was becoming a burden to his friends and leaves Houston for Kansas. One reason that peter have faced difficulties was because of culture shock, as America and Africa have a totally different levels of being uncivilized. The lost boys were living at the refugee camp, therefore they have been living in their culture way all through their life. This shows that the lost boys were very uncivilized because they have been keep using the same way over again. However, in America they have learned that they could live a easier life just by learning new laws, transportation and getting food so easily. It is because in the refugee camp they have been struggling from hunger. Therefore, Peter have been facing culture shock, because of the huge difference in uncivilized country and civilized country. Another reason that peter was going through difficulties was because of skin color which is also known as racism. Peter was having a thought that he was too black which made him depressed because everyone had looked down on him. For example, the school counselor had looked down on peter just because he was from the refugee camp, with no parents and was too black who had never got education before. Also when he was working at the supermarket, the boss have used him to do hard work since he was easily to deal with because he was uneducated. Therefore, he had been told to work outside under the sun, because as he was black, and is from Africa the boss had thought that Peter was used to heat and could work better than the White people as he could stand it. I thinkg the main reason that is causing the lost boys to face all the difficulties is because of the language. Peter couldnt speak English properly and therefore had been looked down from many other teachers and friends. At first, he couldnt make new friends because people had been ignoring him and looking down on him that he couldnt speak English properly. As he was dissapointed from being ignored Peter proves that he could speak English by taking ESL classes and really participating in all his classes. Peter had studied really well and had manage to prove that he could speak Enlgish and that people like him can get education therefore they should not look down. He had proved this by getting a letter from National Honor Society. At the end Peter overcomes the problem by graduating high school and getting scholarship to go to University. He had manage to face the problem because he had never given up his dream and worked really hard. Peter had assimilated to the new culture as well, and had managed to succeed his goal that he had dreamed of.
