1/10

Consider a tree for a moment. As beautiful as trees are to look we don't see

what grows underground. Trees must develop roots in order to grow strong

and produce their beauty. But we don't see the roots. We just see and enjoy

the beauty. In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots

of a tree.

Observe uma rvore por um momento. Mesmo que elas sejam lindas a nossos olhos, ns no

vemos o que cresce no subsolo. As rvores precisam desenvolver razes para crescerem fortes

e produzir sua beleza. Mas no vemos as razes. S vemos e admiramos a beleza. Da mesma

forma somos ns. O que est dentro de ns semelhante s razes de uma rvore.

Mrcia Luiza de AbreuTeacher

One of the most important responsibilities of a

school which has by motto to change the world onechild a time is with no doubt to give its students to

notion of Roots and Wings. Teaching them in a way

they could not only acquire a strong sense of

individuality, but also know, understand, and assume

the responsibility of been part of a group. At the same

time instil, through love and respect, the necessary

confidence to spread their wings and fly, as citizens

of the world, willing to change their sorrounding

environment through their actions and statements.To know herself/himself as a citizen of the world

imply in knowning that the wolld is one and the

differences must not be reason for prejudice, instead,

we must respect these differences, as we know that,

to use the words of Comenius we all need help

because were all humans ,and therefore,

imperfects.Thereby we reached the conclusion that it is

necessary to give thestudents, involved in theproject, the oportunity to know and di scuss stories of

people who overcame prejudice and became modern

heroes, capable to teach all of us principles and

values that will certainly, make us better people.Then came the idea of creating a magazine using

the learning experiences of the students themselves,

who participated in the writing of the articles in this

issue. They share in this issue, what they learned

during the project and how what theyve learned

contributed to their own growth as individuals. We

believe that the project has achieved to foster in

students a better understanding of the world in which

they live, expanding their horizons and opening thei r

minds.

Uma das responsabilidades fundamentais de uma

escola que tem por motivao transformar o mundocomeando por cada um de seus alunos sem dvida

dar a esses alunos a noo de Roots and Wings

(razes e Asas). Ensin-los de forma que adquiram um

forte senso de individualidade, mas tambm

conheam, entendam e assumam a responsabilidade

de pertencer a um grupo. Ao mesmo tempo incutir

nesses alunos, atravs do amor e respeito a confiana

necessria para abrir asas e voar, como cidados do

mundo dispostos a mudar o ambiente que os cerca

atravs de suas aes e colocaes.Conhecer-se como cidado do mundo implica em

saber que o mundo nico e que as diferenas no

devem e no podem ser motivo de preconceito, ao

contrrio, preciso respeit-las sabendo-se que,

parafraseando Comenius, ns todos precisamos de

ajuda, pois somos todos humanos, e portanto,

imperfeitos.Ass im sen do, che gam os con clu so da

necessidade proporcionar aos alunos envolvidos no

projeto, a oportunidade de conhecer e discutir histrias

de pessoas que venceram o preconceito e se tornaram

heris modernos, capazes de ensinar a todos ns

preceitos e valores que nos faro melhores como

pessoa.Surgiu ento a ideia de criar uma revista

utilizando as experincias de aprendizagem dos

prprios alunos, que participaram da escrita dos

artigos. Eles compartilham nessa edio o que

aprenderam durante o projeto e como os

ensinamentos recebidos contribuiro para seu prprio

crescimento como indivduos. Cremos que o projeto

tenha conseguido promover nos alunos um melhor

entendimento do mundo em que vivem, ampliando

seus horizontes e abrindo suas mentes.

Ti me to Th in kIf I had two things to be thankful for I know what they would be.

Id be thankful for the Roots I have to cling to, and the Wings that set me free;

My Roos of inner values, like rings within a tree,

and my Wings of independence to seek my destiny.

Roots to hold forever that keep me safe and strong,

That let me know you love me, when Ive done something wrong;

that showed me by example, and helped me learn to choose.

To take those actions every day to win instead of lose.

If I had two things to say thank you for, and two were all I had,

And they were surely granted, by my Mom and Dad;

I wouldnt thank for money or any store bought things

The greatest gifts Im thankful for are simple Roots and Wings

Adapted from a poem by Denis Waitley

Se para agradecer eu tivesse dois motivos apenas

Seria grato pelas Razes s quais me apegar,

E tambm pelas Asas que me do liberdade;

Minhas razes, como os anis de uma rvore, so os valores interiores,

e minhas Asas a independncia para buscar o meu destino.

Razes s quais me amparar, que me mantm seguro e forte,

Que me mostram que vocs me amam, mesmo quando fao algo que no bom;

que me ensinam pelo seu exemplo e me ajudam a saber escolher.

A buscar a cada dia sempre o ganhar e nunca o perder.

Se eu tivesse duas coisas para agradecer, e somente duas eu tivesse,

certamente seriam, meu pai e minha me;

Eu no agradeceria pelo dinheiro

ou qualquer coisa comprada em loja.

Certamente o maior presente seria as razes e as asas.

Black people are example of those who sufferracial prejudice.The prejudiced people say: If we stop bei ng prejudiced theworld will be the same. But I say: Everybody has rights andblack people and jewish people must be respected.This change is so important because everyone in the worldare people and it doesnt matter the color of their skin, or ifthey are fat or thin, or tall or short, black or whi te. Everybodyis special to God and He want that prejudice stop.So Come on and help us to convince people stop beingprejudiced!

got to the conclusion that

prejucice is wrong and should

Iend.

I t h i n k t h a t t h e B r a z i l i a ngovernment should expand the

indian reservations because

indians cannot practice their

culture. This change will bennefit

the Brazilian indians because they have a rich culture, they are

wise and make beautiful pottery.Lets think not only about Brazil but about the world. Native

Americans li ke Jim Thorpe suffer prejudice because of his

Native American herritage.Lets think the world without prejudice; everybody wins. Lets

put an end on prejudice.

Vamos acabar com o preconceito.

Gabriel Andrade Camelo

We need to end the prejudice because some

people are excluded and suffer with this

everyday, only because their skin colors are

different, or their beliefs and cultures. If prejudice ends

everybody would love more each other and the world

would be a better place.If you think that prejudice is not a good thing, try to

convince other people; children, teenagers or adults to

stop being prejudiced; to be more friendly; to love more.

Then the world will be a better place to li ve. Lets help the

people who suffer with prejudice because they are really

sad with that.So, if you think this editorial changed your heart; if this

words convinced you to be a better person, or have abetter heart, please, help stop prejudice, help the world,

help OUR world.

Ns precisamos de acabar com o preconceitoporque algumas pessoas so excluidas esofrem com isso todos os dias s porque a

I was born in Oakville, Alabama, in 1913.My family moved to Cleveland, Ohio, when Iwas nine years old. My family worked hard, butearned little money.

I joined the track team in high school andpracticed every morning. I tied a world record inthe 100-yard dash. At Ohio State University, Iset world records for the long jump, the 220-yard dash, and the hurdles.

In 1936 I participated in the SummerOlympic Games in Berlin, Germany. I won fourgold medals, proving wrong Hitler's view thatwhite Germans were better than everyone else.Winning at the Olympics was a wonderfulexperience

Harriet Tubman was born about 1820and was originally named Araminta Ross. She

was born to slaves Benjamin Ross and Harriet

Greene on a plantation in Dorchester Country,

Maryland. She was one of eleven children in

her family. In 1844, her slave master allowed

her to marry John Tubman, who was a free

black man. By this time, Harriet had taken her

mother's first name. When her slave master

and his heir died, Harriet's status as a slavewas in question, because her freedom had

never been granted. Rather than take any

chances, she moved to the north without her

husband. While living in Pennsylvania, Harriet

got involved with the abolitionist cause. She

became a conductor on the Underground

Railroad, which helped slaves escape from the

South. The Underground Railroad was anetwork of people who helped runaway slaves

(the passengers), the safe houses were called

stations and people led their passengers from

safe house to safe house. In a period of about

ten years, Harriet helped about 300 slaves

escape slavery in the South, guiding them to

freedom in the North.

Harriet Tubman nasceu por volta de 1820 e se

chamava originalmente Araminta Ross. Tubman nasceu

de pais escravos numa fazendano condado de

Dorchester em Maryland. Ela era uma dos 11 filhos do

casal Benjamin Ross and Harriet Greene. Em 1844 seu

mestre permitiu que ela se casasse com John Tubman,

que era um negro livre. Nesse tempo Harriet j havia

adotado o primeiro nome de sua me. Quando seu mestre

e herdeiro morreram, seu status de escrava ficou em

aberto porque sua liberdade nunca havia sido garantida.

Sem querer se arriscar, Harriet se mudou para o norte sem

o marido, que preferiu ficar no sul. Enquanto vivia na

Pennsylvania, Harriet se envolveu com a causa

abolicionista e se tornou uma condutorada Underground

Railroad, e ajudou muitos escravos a fugirem do sul.

A Underground Railroad era uma rede de

pessoas que ajudava escravos em fuga (os passageiros).

Os esconderijos eram chamados de estaes e os

condutores guiavam seus passageiros de estao em

estao. Por um perodo de cerca de dcada Harriet

ajudou cerca de 300 escravos a escapar da escravido no

sul dos Estados Unidos, guiando-os at a liberdade no

norte.

Negro Spirituals are religious songs that

were created by enslaved African people in the

United States.

The lyrics of negro spirituals were tightly

linked with the lives of their authors: the slaves.

While work songs dealt only with their daily life,

spirituals were inspired by the message of Jesus

Christ and his Good News (Gospel) of the Bible,

You can be saved. They are different from

hymns and psalms, because they were a way of

sharing the hard condition of being a slave.

Many slaves in town and in plantations

tried to run to a free country, that they called my

home or Sweet Canaan, the Promised Land.

This country was on the Northern side of Ohio

River, that they called Jordan. Some NegroSpirituals refer to the Underground Railroad, an

organization for helping slaves to run away. A

fugitive could use several ways. First, they had to

walk at night, using hand lights and moonlight.

When needed, they walked (waded) in water, so

that dogs could not smell their tracks. Second,

they jumped into chariot, where they could hide

and ride away. These chariots stopped at some

stations, but this word could mean any place

where slaves had to go for being taken in charge.

So, negro spirituals like Wade in the Water, The

Gospel Train and Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

directly refer to the Underground Railroad.

Songs of Freedom

Negro Spiritual so canes religiosas que

foram criadas pelos escravos africanos nos

Estados Unidos.

As letras so intimamente ligadas vida de

seus autores: os escravos. Spirituals eram

inspiradas na mensagem de Jesus Cristo e as Boas

Novas do Evangelho. Voc pode ser salvo. Sodiferentes dos cnticos e hinos por serem uma

forma de compartilhar a dura vida de um escravo.

Muitos escravos nas cidades e fazendas

tentavam fugir para uma nao livre que eles

chamavam de Minha casa, ou doce Cana a

terra prometida. Esse lugar ficava ao norte do rio

Ohio, que eles chamavam de Jordo. Algumas

canes se referiam Underground Railroad,

uma organizao para ajudar os escravos em fuga.

Um fugitivo poderia utilizar muitos caminhos.

Primeiro eles tinham que utilizar lanternas

de mo ou a luz do luar. Quando necessrio, elesandavam na gua dos rios de forma que os ces

no conseguiriam farejar suas pegadas. Depois

eles pulavam em carroas, onde poderiam se

esconder e fugir. Essas carroas paravam nas

estaes mas essa palavras poderia se referir a

qualquer lugar onde pudessem se esconder. Assim,

algumas canes como Wade in the Water, The

Gospel Train and Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

diretamente se referiam Underground Railroad.

HeroesThis is J im Thorpe. He is

remembered as one of the greatest

athletes of all time and one of the mostcelebrated Native Americans in modern

times. At the 1912 Olympics, Jim Thorpe

accomplished the unprecedented feat of

winning gold medals in both the

pentathlon and the decathlon. However,

Thorpe's triumph was marred by scandal

just months later when he was stripped of

his medals due to a violation of his

amateur status prior to the Olympics.

Thorpe later played both professional

baseball and football, but was anespecially gifted football player. In 1950,

Associated Press sportswriters voted

Jim Thorpe the greatest athlete of the

half-century. JimThorpe suffered a fatal

heart attack on March 28, 1953 dying at

the age of 64. Through his life Thorpe

proved people are equal, no matter their

skin color.

famosos Indgenas Americanos dos tempos modernos. Nos Jogos Olmpicos de 1912, Jim Thorpeconseguiu a proeza indita de ganhar meda lhas de ouro tanto no pentatlo e decatlo. No entanto, o triunfo

de Thorpe foi marcado por um escndalo poucos meses mais tarde, quando ele foi despojado de suas

medalhas devido a uma violao do seu estado de amador antes das Olimpadas. Thorpe, mais tarde

jogou tanto como profissional de beisebol e futebol, e como jogador de futebol era especialmente bem

dotado. Em 1950, a Associated Press sportswriters elegeu Jim Thorpe o maior atleta da primeira metade

do sculo. Jim Thorpe sofreu um ataque cardaco fatal em 28 de maro de 1953 e morreu 64 anos.
