Model African Union Reflection

Model African Union Reflection

On Friday we did a model African Union. It was fun but also very confusing. We had to write resolutions and then find other countries to be our signatories and sponsors. After that we presented our resolutions to the group and we debated and voted on them.

What I learned

I learned that Tanzania is a Hybrid Regime and that they want to advance in democracy. I also learned how the African Union works and how to caucus and write resolutions, debate, and how to vote on resolutions.

Do you hold a ‘single story’ on Africa?

I used to think that Africa was a continent full of poverty and people who have to walk a long way for water. I thought that everyone in Africa was poor and walked miles every day for water that wasn’t even healthy to drink. I thought that there was a lot of sickness in Africa too. What stories are you missing?

What stories are you missing?

At school we watched a TED Talk about single stories. I learned a lot from that video and also from the books we read to research for our African countries research paper. I learned that there are many cities and countries in Africa with no poverty, clean water, and healthy people. There are also families with expensive things, maid, and big houses.

What is the danger of a ‘single story’?

There are many dangers of a single story. In the TED Talk, the speaker told a story of her and her roommate. Her roommate figured that she didn’t know how to use a stove because she was African, but she was actually from a well off family with a big house and servants. She said that her roommate thought this because she had a ‘single story’ of Africa. This is an example. People may think that Africa is a country with poverty and no water, but that isn’t the case everywhere. Those stories are lies, they are true, but not everywhere is full of poverty.

SINAI LAW

                                                              I chose a picture of the Ten Commandments because God tells us that we                                                                need to follow them. He also says we need to follow Him.

 

SALUTE TO A KING

I chose this picture to show the Cycle of the Judges.

 

CONFLICT AND DOUBT

I chose a picture of someone doubting because we sometimes doubt God.

Dollar A Day

This movie made me feel sad. The people in the movie we great people with kind hearts. They all had hopes and dreams like the rest of us but because of poverty they can’t make their dreams happen. Towards the end of the movie I felt happier because the people were taking out loans from the bank to start business and do they things they love. People also took out loans to fix their houses so that they can have a safer place to stay.
