English 3 Trades FINAL

 

Living with Circumstances

The British man seen in this photo is searching for a job in the streets and has written his abilities onto a placard, The photo shows that the characteristics of the ‘Depression’ that had begun in America was already seen worldwide. Also, we can tell that even those who have high language abilities and business experience cannot find a job. The situation in the U.K at the time must have been extremely desperate.

Text Box: Unemployed man seeking a jobAt the same time, the words he is carrying on his back are slightly humorous. The national character of British people shines through it. They will never lose their humour when enduring the most unpleasant hardships. This ‘National brightness’ must have been what enabled the British people to endure the attack by the Nazis without giving up during WW2.

This photo gives an insight into the misery of that time and also teaches us that even in such circumstances there are people who want to be as bright and strong as possible in their lives. I learned that with such cheerfulness, people will be able to live on through any kind of situation. This is why I chose this picture to present to you.

COMPLETED VERSION Charles Perkins and the 1965 Australian Freedom Ride

Image
  Charles Perkins and the 1965 Australian Freedom Ride Charles Perkins was a champion for the rights and justice of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and an inspirational soccer player. He has described the Freedom Ride as the “the greatest and most exciting event [he had] ever been involved with in Aboriginal affairs”. A re-enactment and celebration of the Ride’s 50 th anniversary was held by the University of Sydney in 2015. That’s just last year.
