Respond to Ngugi's article

 First of all, Ngugi's experience was somehow similar to Korean colonial one. Japan tried to abolish our language and culture but it didn't succeed. It was like cannon from Ngugi's article. Koreans defied their violence and confronted to die. Therefore we can keep our language and tradition. Koreans still look down Japanese style accent with a strong backlash to Japan's invasion. Japan knew language was the means of the spiritual obtainment. However it didn't make the perfect conquer because of its external pursue like physical and brutal violence.
 Secondly, after independence from Japan, Korea didn't have a right to deal by itself.  Several country discussed Korea's issue like Ngugi's country. The slow and deep invasion started in the name of help.  We have a different version of colonialzation. Unlike Japan's occupation, we did't have a strong resist. Without notion, we got into  America's culture occupation.  US runs a tight ship of economy and politics in Korea. I don't deny the necessity of English in the world. The spread of English is one of tools to colonize the world.
 Lastly, English is just a langage to communicate. However, it is more than that in Korea. Good at English doesn't mean he is good at everything. I think Ngugi's article gives me a chance to reckon recent English fever. Power is very brutal and greedy. People who have power keep their power forever with controlling the world. We are still oppressor without noticing.

Beauty without brains

From a long time ago, men have been the oppressor but women the oppressed. Men set up the concept that they are superior to women, which is not true. They worried women would overtake them in the power. Women also have a similar thought as we have been educated.
This commercical shows this aspect very clearly. A beautiful blonde lady orders a burger and drink in the library. The librarian tells her it's the library. The lady orders the menu again very quietly, which is sort of stupid. Right after the scene, ad line comes out "Beauty is nothing without brains".
Lastly, white Merecedes car is shown.
This stereotype was made by men and women were trained. Beautiful women are not intelligent and related to luxurious cars. The beauty love money. This conept is from a men dominant society.
The libraian is sort of not pretty. It also contrast between two women.
Mercedes uses woman image to outstand its car. It annoys me.
In the class, students can discuss about relation between beauty and intelligence. There are lots of misconcepts about women and also men.
