MLK, a wise man to bear in mind

Martin Luther King was born in Atlanta in 1929. His natal name was Michael King Sr, but after a trip with his family to Germany, Michael King Mr decided to change his own name to Martin Luther King, in honor of Martin Luther.

I know a bit of Martin Luther King, I know he fought against racism to black persons.
I’m going to talk about the incident of racism on a bus that is related to Luther King. A white man asked the black woman to yield him the seat of the bus, but she refused and she was arrested by the police. Because of this incident, Martin Luther King decided to initiate a protest in opposition to the racial segregation that his city was suffering. He told black people in the town to not use the bus until this racism was erradicated completely. Finally, one year after the beginning of the opposition against the racism on the buses, this type of racism was declared as illegal.

In 1963, he headed with other 250,000 people, a march for improving the living conditions and integration of the black population in the south of the country. In this peace march he gave his famous speech “I have a dream ". On 14th October in1964, with only 35 years, he received the Nobel Prize on the Peace.

Unfortunately, on 4th April in 1968 he was murdered in Memphis's motel by James Earl Ray.

Brussels is currently on high alert


Brussels is the capital of Belgium and he biggest city in Belgium. It is also the principal administrative establishment of the European Union. Brussel is perfectly communicated by train to the main European capitals, for example: London, Paris and Amsterdam. In Brussel there are big international companies. Brussel is dangerous if you have got a sweet tooth, because in Brussel they make sweets that you can’t resist, for example the scent of emboss.

Belgium is situated in the European northwest. Belgium is a multilinguistic state with three official languages: Dutch, French and a bit of German. It is one of the members of the European Union, which principal institutions are located in the country and there are other international organizations, as the NATO.

I think that it is normal that Belgium was on high alert because of terrorism, because there are yihadists that can commit an outrage and a lot of people can die. In my opinion, this protection will avoid the death of people

Robin Hood and James Bond


Robin Hood was a bandit who stole money from the rich people to give it to the poor. In the real life the legend says that he was a man called Robin Longstride, who had a great heart and lived in the Sherwood woods near the city of Nottingham. He fought against the sheriff of Nottingham.

I have seen photos of Nottingham and I think that it is an old city, but very beautiful and I  have also seen the oldest inn in England and for me it is small and smart.

James Bond is a character created by the English novelist Ian Fleming in 1952. James Bond is a secret agent who has license to kill. In the novels and films James Bond, also called agent 007, has to carry out a secret mission and during the mission he has adventures.

I listened to the two songs and I like the song by Adele the most.
