Retrieved from: nettavisen/no. December 10, 2013 NEW YORK (AP) — The thing about Nelson Mandela was that he made the rest of us want to be almost as noble as he. Imprisoned for 27 years, the anti-apartheid leader emerged from prison not filled with hatred, but courtly, humble and good-humored. It is easy to forget what South Africa had become by the early 1990s as part of its white minority struggled to hang on to the three centuries of privilege made possible by apartheid. Part of the privilege of being around Nelson Mandela in the 1990s was to see the joy he spread whenever he entered a township or a small settlement in one of the homelands set up by apartheid governments to separate black from white South Africans. As the cars carrying Mandela and his supporters jolted along the dirt tracks, they soon would be joined by school children running alongside as fast as they could, shouting for "Madiba, Madiba," the clan name that he is affectionately called. Finally, when the cars could move no farther, Mandela would slowly walk through the people, smiling and waving and occasionally raising his fist in an ANC salute with a different brightly colored and patterned shirt on every day. Inside there would be dancing, cheering and singing of his name, until everyone went quiet to hear his speech. He could be firm with his followers,— saying they were embarrassing the cause when they tore down posters of opponents or heckled members of the opposition. "People will believe that we are unfit for government," he would warn followers when they showed any signs of hooligan behavior. He was loyal as well to the Third World and to the countries that had formed the anti-apartheid front. Even when he was firmly embraced by the U.S. government, he would not forsake those who had befriended his cause at a time when the world's richer and more powerful countries were still supporting apartheid South Africa. And he could be brutal with his political opponents, but he seized their hand for a unifying handshake at the end. After his swearing-in for president in Pretoria, as South Africa’s first democratically chosen leader, Mandela slipped easily into the role of president. In a meeting for a group of foreign journalists when he was then 77, he recounted all the affairs of state and problems of the country that were keeping him busy, but made clear that he was still energetic and still relishing the burden of leading his nation and serving as an icon for Africa and for the cause of truth and reconciliation everywhere. "At the end of the day, I have often felt that I have spent my time very fruitfully," he told us with his typical understatement and a slight twinkle in the eye. 19.5.2014 Eksamensforberedelse 2014 https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_03.aspx 3/3 Adapted from: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/06/nelson-mandela-inspired-others_n_4396247.html? utm_hp_ref=mostpopular 19.5.2014 https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx 1/3 The Absolutely True Diary of a Part- Time Indian by Sherman Alexie This text is about a young Native American boy called Junior who decides to do something about a difficult situation. In this excerpt, he struggles with helping his dearest friend, the dog Oscar. Do you know the worst thing about being poor? Oh, maybe you’ve done the math in your head and you figure: Poverty = empty refrigerator + empty stomach And sure, sometimes, my family misses a meal, and sleep is the only thing we have for dinner, but I know that, sooner or later, my parents will come bursting through the door with a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken. Original Recipe. And hey, in a weird way, being hungry makes food taste better. There is nothing better than a chicken leg when you haven’t eaten for (approximately) eighteen-and-a-half hours. So hunger is not the worst thing about being poor. And now I’m sure you’re asking. “Okay, okay, Mr. Hunger Artist, Mr. Mouth-Full-of-Words, Mr. Woe-Is-Me, Mr. Secret Recipe, what is the worst thing about being poor?” So, okay, I’ll tell you the worst thing. Last week, my best friend Oscar got really sick. And sure, Oscar was only an adopted stray mutt, but he was the only living thing that I could depend on. He was more dependable than my parents, grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, and a big sister. He taught me more than any teachers ever did. Honestly, Oscar was a better person than any human I had ever known. 19.5.2014 https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx 2/3 “Mom,” I said. “We have to take Oscar to the vet.” “He’ll be all right,” she said. But she was lying. Her eyes always got darker in the middle when she lied. She was a Spokane Indian and a bad liar which didn’t make any sense. We Indians really should be better liars, considering how often we have been lied to. “He’s really sick, Mom,” I said. “He’s going to die if we don’t take him to the doctor.” She looked hard at me. And her eyes weren’t dark anymore, so I knew she was going to tell me the truth. And trust me, there are times when the last thing you want to hear is the truth. “Junior, sweetheart,” Mom said. “I’m sorry, but we don’t have any money for Oscar.” “I’ll pay you back,” I said. “I promise.” “Honey, it’ll cost hundreds of dollars, maybe a thousand.” “I’ll pay back the doctor. I’ll get a job.” Jezz, how stupid was I? What kind of job can a reservation Indian boy get? I was too young to deal blackjack at the casino, there were only about fifteen green grass lawns on the reservation and the only paper route was owned by a tribal elder named Wally. And he had to deliver fifty papers, so this job was more like a hobby. There was nothing I could do to save Oscar. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. So I lay down on the floor beside him and patted his head and whispered his name for hours. Dad pulled down his rifle and bullets from the closet. “He’s suffering,” Dad said. “We have to help him.” I wanted to punch my dad in the face. I wanted to punch him in the nose and make him bleed. I wanted to punch him in the eye and make him blind. Dad just looked at me with the saddest look in his eyes. He was crying. He looked weak. I wanted to hate him for his weakness. I wanted to hate Dad and Mom for our poverty. I wanted to blame them for my sick dog and for all the other sickness in the world. 19.5.2014 https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx https://pgsf.udir.no/Year2014/PreparationRoom4/eng_05.aspx 3/3 But I can’t blame my parents for our poverty because my mother and father are the twin suns around which I orbit and my world would EXPLODE without them. And it’s not like my mother and father were born into wealth. It’s not like they gambled away their family fortunes. My parents came from poor people who came from poor people who came from poor people, all the way back to the very first poor people. Seriously, I know my mother and father had their dreams when they were kids. They dreamed about being something other than poor, but they never got the chance to be anything because nobody paid attention to their dreams. Given the chance, my mother would have gone to college. She still reads books like crazy. And she remembers everything she reads. Given the chance, my father would have been a musician. He plays the guitar and the piano a little bit. And he has the old saxophone from high school that he keeps all clean and shiny, like he’s going to join a band at any moment. But we reservation Indians don’t get to realize our dreams. We don’t get those chances. Or choices. We’re just poor. That’s all we are. It sucks to be poor, and it sucks to feel that you somehow deserve to be poor. You start believing that you’re poor because you’re stupid and ugly. And then you start believing that you’re stupid and ugly because you’re an Indian. And because you’re Indian you start believing you’re destined to be poor. It’s an ugly circle and there’s nothing you can do about it. Poverty doesn’t give strength or teach you lessons about perseverance. No, poverty only teaches you how to be poor.

During his first week at Camp Green Lake, close to three years before, a scorpion had stung him on the arm, and the pain had traveled upward and settled in his armpit. It had felt like there was a hot needle twisting around inside him. He’d made the mistake of complaining about how much his armpit hurt. The pain eventually went away, but the name stuck. He had been sent to Camp Green Lake because of a bucket of popcorn. He had been trying to ease his way along a row of seats at the movies. He was only fourteen at the time, and was making his way past a couple of high school seniors when one of them stuck out his foot. They yelled at him for spilling popcorn on them, and he demanded that they pay for the popcorn, and by the time it was all over, the two older boys were in the hospital, and he was on his way to Camp Green Lake Juvenile Correctional Facility. After leaving Camp Green Lake, he first spent six months at a halfway house in San Antonio, where he attended school and received counseling. There were sixteen boys at the halfway house. The counselor there told them that the recidivism rate for African American boys was seventy-three percent. That meant, according to the statistics, that eleven or twelve of them would be arrested again before they turned eighteen. The counselor said the rate was even higher if you didn’t finish high school.

The consequences are that other students may form an opinion about them without actually knowing them. These are our names. Bobby. Addie. Joe. Skeezie. These are our names. But they are only names. They don’t tell you who we are. We have other names, too. Names we have been called, names we have been given. We figured it out. Between us, we have a total of seventy-two names, other than the names you see here. These are names we have been called since kindergarten. The ones we remember, anyway. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me. Anybody who believes that has never been called a name. This is what I think about names. I think that names are a very small way of looking at a person. When I was in third grade, I got the name Fluff because I ate peanut butter and Marshmallow Fluff sandwiches every day for lunch and also, I guess, because I started putting on weight. But nobody knew why I was eating those sandwiches. I didn’t even know myself until this year, when I figured it out. It was because my dad made one for me for lunch one day and he told me, “These were your mom’s favorite kind of sandwich.” My mom had died the summer before and I missed her. And so from then on I wouldn’t eat anything but peanut butter and Marshmallow Fluff sandwiches for lunch. But every time I did, somebody was bound to call out, “Hey Fluff!” and that hurt. Another thing I think about names is that they do hurt. They hurt because we believe them. We think they are telling us something true about ourselves, something other people can see even if we don’t.

We think. Is that who I am? If you haven’t been called any of those names, think about the ones you have been called. Is that who you are? The No-Name Party wants to put an end to name-calling in school. We want to start with a No- Name Day, in which we all think about the names we call each other and stop using them – just for a day. Maybe we’ll think about more than names and stop talking to each other like some of us are less than others of us. But, hey, I don’t want to get too ambitious here. Let’s just start with names. No name-calling. For one day. Then we can see where it goes.

People are often defined as members of groups, depending on their culture, their religious beliefs, and their origin or looks, such as the colour of their skin, their size, hairstyle or clothing. Often this definition of groups also includes certain qualities. These qualities can be positive or negative. If these definitions are exaggerated, we call them stereotypes. Stereotypes can also be found in books (even school textbooks), comics, advertisements, newspapers or movies. From a stereotype to a prejudice. If a person or a group is judged based only on stereotypes and not as an individual or group of individuals, we are dealing with a prejudice. This means that an opinion has been formed about a person or a group without actually knowing him, her or them. Such views and ideas most often have nothing to do with reality (for example that all Norwegians are good skiers), and they are also often unfavourable, hostile and offensive. Primarily, prejudices are used to treat someone unfairly. Prejudices deprive people of the opportunity to show who they are and what they are capable of achieving. What are stereotypes good for? Stereotypes and prejudices seem to make the world simpler and less complicated. You can for example pretend that you know everything about the other/s and need not ask any questions. However, as a result, a meaningful dialogue and a real understanding have become impossible. What can we do against prejudices? Prejudices die hard and are therefore hard to deal with. But there is no need to lose hope: no one is born with prejudices. They have been learnt and can therefore be unlearnt. Before judging a person, ask him or her to explain why he or she has done whatever is under discussion. Remember that you surely would not like being judged without being listened to.
