BRINGS OUT WITH A LOOK OUT - Peripheral vision

   It is very difficult to imagine a completely different life, a fact quite far from our reality, students of a private school, members of social class balanced and residents of neighborhood. Many of us did not pay attention to your needs and the struggle of its inhabitants and, much worse, we are not "played" their existence.

   Remember that the periphery is much more marked by precariousness and lack of assistance and resources than by location.

  In the periphery and in the suburbs, finally, in all parts of Salvador financially underprivileged, forgotten by the rulers, who go to the periphery of the election season only looking for votes, deceive these people and then do nothing.

  Sometimes we think and ask ourselves: What role has the edge in our lives? What it influences in our society? The culture of the periphery, it has also been improves, the people who live there are succeeding in life and thus showing to society that the periphery is not only a thief, drug dealer, marginal, but honest people who struggle every days to achieve a better life for their families, other people who live there is by choice, they have a better life, but how he spent his childhood there, do not want to leave.

  There is still much prejudice on the part of the population of a little higher social class. These people have a biased look, a preconceived notion that every resident of the periphery or any person of lower social class is a thief. People do not mind helping others to see it better for them, what matters is only the "I".

  There are people who are social actions in the periphery, others are voluntary and these people seek to improve the lives of those living in the suburbs, through music, art, among others. Thus making them better and better and helping them not to join in violence.

   Any exclusion from society and the marginalization of people living in the periphery generate the statement: "Nobody is marginal." Society "is that makes the marginal worth, denying that come to life, education, housing, food and work."

  The work on the periphery was very valuable, we learn, in a sense, the various "faces" of our city, other cultures and how important we look at the world we live in, because many people are worse off than our and, of course, showed us what is "behind the scenes" because it is very easy to talk about the situation, but we do not really know how to live in these places, be looked at in a different way and, of course not everyone lives in the room "Suburbs", but nobody knows how to be seen with different eyes throughout society, the eyes of prejudice and exclusion, after all, as the title of the blog says, "A look from the outside."

   This work, we will take a lifetime, just with different "bars" of prejudice and found also that there is much to learn still, the city of Salvador, that shall not be counted in the history books, the quotes from people the surveys, interviews with residents, all of these examples revealed to us that in fact, hope is the "last to die" and that no battle, no victory.
