INTRODUCCIÓN En general, siempre se ha considerado a la Filosofía como una disciplina austera ocupada por temas estrictamente abstractos y principios universales casi ininteligibles, que ofrece preguntas pero nunca proporciona respuestas. Consecuencia de ello es, probablemente, el declive progresivo que ha ido sufriendo en nuestro país y, sobretodo, dentro del mundo de la enseñanza, donde si ya no existía demasiado interés por las asignaturas de ámbito filosófico, las nuevas medidas educativas propuestas por la LOMCE las deja directamente en un segundo plano. Todo ello pone en peligro la pervivencia de la filosofía no sólo en Educación Secundaria y Bachillerato, sino también en la educación superior, puesto que buena parte de los estudiantes de las facultades de Filosofía obtienen su vocación en Secundaria o Bachillerato. Por tanto, es indiscutible que la Filosofía está sufriendo una grave crisis en España, no sólo en el ámbito social, sino también en el relativo a la enseñanza.

  • Pepe Serna Statement for the Record September 24, 2020 My Name Is Pepe Serna, I Am a Mexican American Film, Television, and Thea
    Pepe Serna Statement for the Record September 24, 2020 My name is Pepe Serna, I am a Mexican American film, television, and theatrical actor. I am also a visual artist and motivational speaker who believes that art is the essence of who we are as human beings. My purpose for addressing Congress via this statement is to issue a CALL TO ACTION to address and resolve the lack of inclusiveness and diversity in the entertainment industry. I challenge each and every one of you become more familiar and aware of the struggles and challenges that we as Latino Hollywood actors, producers, directors, technicians, and others supporting our trade face in our day-to-day activities. While I’m addressing primarily Latinos in this statement, I also speak for our minority populations, who also face pay discrimination and prejudice in this industry. Diversity is not just black and white – like vintage films. Just as movies and television have transitioned to technicolor, so should the entertainment industry transition to represent all people of color and sexual orientation. Let me set the stage so that you can judge for yourself that I know what I am talking about and that my Call to Action has merit. For the last 50 years, I have worked with Oscar-winning producers, writers, directors, and actors in 100 films and 300 television shows. I have given hundreds upon hundreds of improvisational workshops around the country. My lifelong passion, next to being an actor, has been to teach character education through my “Pepefied Breakthrough Improv.” These workshops teach students and adults alike how to Connect, Communicate and Collaborate.

  • Basic Questions for the Analysis of Films Plot, Title, Enigma: 1
    Basic Questions for the analysis of films Plot, title, enigma: 1. What is this movie about? This movie is about a father and son, Carlos and Luis, who live in East L.A. Carlos is a landscaper who is trying to make a better life for him and his son while also trying to keep Luis away from gang life. Luis is Carlos’ fifteen year old son whose girlfriend is affiliated with a gang. The story shows how the father and son come together in the goal to make a better life for themselves in a tough time. 2. If applicable, what is the historic reference? There is no historical reference. The film is based on a current issue. 3. What is the meaning of the opening scene? How does it set up the expectations for the rest of the film? The opening scene shows Carlos getting up and going to work as a landscaper. They show his drive through the poorer part of town he lives in and into the nicer neighborhoods he works in. When he goes home for the night, we see that he and Luis are living in a one bedroom. It shows what class they are and what Carlos has to do each day to support them. 4. Whose story is it? It is the story of Carlos and Luis but also of illegal immigrants as a community. It shows what life is like for them and the difficulties they face. Specifically, arguments could be made for it being Carlos’ or Luis’s story. It could be Luis’ story because Carlos has the same goals and motivations throughout the film- trying to make a life for him and is son.
