WHAT WILL JOBS AND LEARNING BE LIKE IN THE FUTURE?

Because of the coronavirus pandemic many companies have changed the way to work. Some people who worked in the office have had to learn to work from home. The way to work and learning has changed both in schools and in offices. But, are we really concerned about what will happen in the future about it?

On the one hand, many businesses have found a lot of good benefits about working at home. First of all, the timetables are more flexible. This allows people to find a balance between their personal and work lives. Moreover, working at home reduces road traffic and people don't have to spend time waiting for the transport. And what's more, the level of contamination has decreased in the latest months.

On the other hand, some people consider that working in the office has many advantages too. People say that computers take up less space and they can work more comfortable than in the house. In addition, they have the opportunity to socialize with people and have a great time while they are eating something or taking a coffee. However, some people are in disagreement, So, many businesses have invented a new alternative. 'Blended working', a mixture of working at home and work in the office.

All in all, I think that the way of working in future jobs and schools depend on each country. Nevertheless, I consider it a good idea to mix the work at home and work away from home.

RACISM: BLACK LIVES DO MATTER!!

 Although we are in the 21st century,the world is still full of discrimination. There are many types of discrimination, but racism is one of them. Racism refers to an ideology which defends the superiority of a race in front of the others and the need to keep isolated from the rest of the world.

Recently, the need to separate a person from a community or a country just for his/her skin color, has led the police to murder to a black man called George Floyd. The act happened a few weeks ago. The police officer put his foot on the man´s neck and crushed him until he couldn't breathe. A video of the man saying his last words began to go viral through the social networks.

Thanks to this viral video a lot of people have published black photos on social media with the hashtag #Black lives matter, an international movement originated in United States, that started in 2013 for the death of a teenager, and almost 6 years later this movement has gained importance. Moreover, hundreds of people came out to protest in the streets. All this demonstrations have appeared in the rest of the world as a way to fight against racism and to support black people.

In conclusion, nobody should suffer discrimination just for his/her skin color and no one should fear for his life or his family life. Racism is a huge problem that is still happening and all of us should do something to stop it.
