David+Do

My name is David Do  Part 1: UN Declaration of Human Rights

Article 25.

 * (1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
 * (2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.

I approve this Article to be the MOST important Human Right out of the whole 30 Articles for the reason that the article states how people are able to have an adequate living standard for a person and his/her family. It also states how we should have the right of security for unemployment, sickness, etc. It finally states how the motherhood and childhood of people should gain special care and assistance to e.g. health, as well as the joy of social protection.

Part 3: Aboriginal Charter of Rights

a) Identify the rhyming pattern of this poem and provide an example.  AA, BB, CC, etc.  e.g.  We want hope, not racialism, (a)  Brotherhood, not ostracism, (a)  Black advance, not white ascendance. (b)  Make us equals, not dependents. (b)

b) Explain what a 'charter' is and how this title links to the content of the poem. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">A grant by the nation’s power, in which an establishment, its rights and its benefits are designated.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> c) "Opportunity that places <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> white and black on equal basis" <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">How do these two lines link the poem to the concept of social justice? <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">The opportunities placed on white and black people on equal basis links to how both races are equally powerful in social justice.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> d) In paragraph form select TWO techniques used in this poem and write about them using the four step process: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> 1. Identify technique <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> 2. Provide example <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> 3. Explain the effect <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> 4. Link back to Social Justice <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> NOTE: You must use complex/sophisticated techniques not basic 'repetition'

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">1. A technique used in the poem is Biblical Allusion. Biblical Allusion was used in the quote, 'Though baptised and blessed and bibled, We are still tabooed and libelled.' The effect of the Biblical Allusion is to represent a jargon of christian ideas and figures through the poem. Relating to Social Justice, the Biblical Allusion gives the sense of beliefs in society and the power of their beliefs.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">2. Another technique used in the poem was Symbolism. Symbolism was used in the quote, 'You the law, like Roman Pontius'. The effect of symbolism gives the reader an Allusion in which Roman Pontius is powerful, just like the law itself. Linking to social justice, the law is powerful in society and would grant equal and justice to everyone.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> e) What is the purpose of the poem? and How do you know this? <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">The purpose of the poem is to recognise the difference of a just society and the things we could do to make a just society to let everyone be equal.
