Superstar

Chapter 780: Charity show

The Venice High School located on Venice Avenue (.) is a very ordinary public high school, but due to its special geographical location, there are a large number of Latino students in the high school, as well as a small number of European, African, Asian students, relatively speaking, there are not many native Americans. It can be said that the entire school is a great integration of ethnic groups, and the overall atmosphere of the campus is more difficult to control.

As we all know, school violence in the United States has always been a deep-rooted problem, especially due to the loosening of gun control in the United States, which has led to many school violence problems that cannot be eradicated. Violence is always the most serious problem in high school.

When people watch youth campus comedy movies, such plots often appear in them. Popular quarterbacks or basketball team members often mix with cheerleaders. They form their own circle. So-called nerds and weirdos will be rejected. outer. The restaurant will be divided into high-class seats and low-class seats, and some students even have to sit beside the trash can for lunch; in serious cases, members of the popular circle will not only ridicule the isolated crowd, but also fight together.

In fact, this is a true portrayal of school violence in the United States, but movies are often beautified and packaged and described as just children's slapstick, rather than a profound social problem. But it is similar to the phenomenon of "High School Musical (... and "Glee" (glee) where musical fans are severely rejected, or it is similar to "Mean." and "American Pie (.). )” Among the disadvantaged groups, the discrimination and blinding of their eyes will appear in a more serious manner in real life.

After entering the 21st century, campus violence has further escalated, and the US campus shootings have caused a global sensation, whether it is the two shootings in the same day at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (...and.state.) in the United States in 2007, resulting in thirty Three people died and twenty-three people were injured; or in 2012, a vicious shooting in an elementary school in Newton, Connecticut (state. of.), which killed 28 people, caused worldwide shock. And attention-grabbing.

In fact, this kind of situation is traceable in American history, especially after entering the 1990s, due to the combination of many social factors, the crime situation has become more and more serious. According to statistics, the violent crime in 1993 was It was more than seven times that in 1960, and the increase in the proportion of school violence was even more alarming.

In 1990, a data survey was conducted. One out of every twenty high school students brought guns to school. Eighty percent of all these guns were brought from home. This also makes it simple The campus began to bear the threat of guns. As a result of this, more than 30,000 people were killed at gunpoint in 1993, of which 18,000 committed suicide with guns, and another 15,000 were killed at gunpoints of murderers.

To make matters worse, in 1993, a statistical data showed that the crime rate between the ages of twelve and nineteen years old increased rapidly, and it has now become the most frequent part of the crime rate among all age groups, far higher than the second place. Nearly six percent of the 20 to 34 years old.

This shows that young people, especially high school students under the age of twenty, are more vulnerable to violent crimes than people in other age groups. School violence also began to become severe as guns entered the campus. Last year, the US Congress passed relevant laws to control gun management, but unfortunately the results were not obvious.

Because of these various reasons, school violence has always been one of the most troublesome problems in society, and it is mixed with race. Discriminatory internal conflicts in multi-ethnic campuses cannot be reconciled. They are not only verbal and physical violence, but also poisonous. Pin, gangster, Ai. Nourish. Diseases and many other problems have seriously endangered the normal life of high school students who are flourishing and prosperous. With the increasing severity of the gun problem, school violence has also shown signs of further escalation.

In order to keep this situation under control, a youth relief campaign was announced in Los Angeles last year. This campaign called "Save Los Angeles (heal.l.a is dedicated to solving a series of problems faced by modern urban youths. Teens provide information about drug abuse. It is hoped that through psychological counseling, the negative emotions of young people can be relieved and the occurrence of school violence can be indirectly reduced.

At the same time, they will also arrange free extracurricular learning opportunities, such as computer education, tutoring by tutors, homework tutoring, math labs, English teaching and performing arts teaching for students whose mother tongue is not English Ways to keep young people on the right track, fundamentally reduce the possibility of school violence.

This time in April, the "Save Los Angeles" organization and Los Angeles' "School City State" organization, "Brothers and Sisters" Association, "Best Foundation", "Watt Health Foundation", "U.S. Rejection. Drugs. Products Alliance" launched. Collaboration. This is also their second series of activities after having a collaboration last year. They hope to launch publicity activities in various high schools in California, directly contact young people, and conduct positive publicity.

Venice High School is the first stop of the April event, and it is also the one that has received the most attention. In order to promote this event, the "Save Los Angeles" organization plans to hold a concert at Venice High School, inviting singers or bands most popular with high school students to attend. The concert is not only to attract the attention of high school students, but also to raise funds for charity-to prepare funds for the next activities.

This time the event "Saving Los Angeles" obviously took a lot of effort. They not only invited the recent glory to the death of the limelight, but also invited the Nirvana band, which had not performed publicly for a while, to the scene. These two bands alone are enough to attract everyone’s attention. After the Nirvana band was born in 1991, it brought grunge rock to the public; after its debut in Glory to Death in 1993, it ushered in the revolution of the rock dynasty again. Although the two bands have no grievances or encounters, the topic is indeed very hot.

But not only that, "Saving Los Angeles" also received the support of Michael Jackson, who has disappeared for nearly three months. Although Michael will not attend related activities in person, he still specifically donated one million US dollars to support related activities. This has also caused a lot of media discussions.

So when Glory to Death arrived at Venice High School, it was not surprising to see the huge lineup of reporters in front of you.

Hugo and the others arrived at the scene two hours early to prepare. As there is still a long time before the performance, although the campus is very lively, everyone is basically doing their own thing, and there are a hundred or two hundred people wandering in the playground. , Looks very lively, but not crowded.

Under such circumstances, Glory to death was easily surrounded by reporters.

Because this is a charity event, their purpose is to promote the event so that the charity can be carried out smoothly, so the interview is a very important link. The five team members are scattered, and a lot of reporters gather in front of everyone. He began to accept interviews. Henry-Bloom stayed at the scene to look after, while Samora drove to the parking lot, then looked for the help of the staff, and moved the band's instruments to the backstage together.

Although Hugo has integrated all the memories of himself and Lancaster, in fact, there are not many parts of his memory about the school. The main reason is that Hugo left school when he was fourteen or fifteen, and spent more time on it. Put into work. However, Hugo is poisonous. The harm of the product is deeply felt, so when he was interviewed by reporters, he talked more eloquently.

Just as Glory To Death was accepting an interview, there was a cry of exclamation behind him. Hugo didn't care and still accepted the interview intently, but the reporters in front of them could see the situation behind Hugo, but they couldn't help but stop. Coming down, Hugo had to turn his head and look over. Then Hugo saw Kurt-Korbain. Speaking of Kurt and Cobain, what is the first picture that comes to mind? Hugo's mind is that Kurt is standing on the stage with backlighting, and the light and shadow behind him are projected, the huge light seems to be a huge burden. On his back, a large shadow obscured his expression. Kurt casually held the microphone with his right hand, as if relying on it to support his whole body. People can only see the disdain and stubbornness at the corner of his mouth.

Hugo once truly suspected that the so-called "Jealous of Heavenly Talents" really existed because of Kurt-Cobain, even if God was involuntarily jealous of this person's talent and talent~www.readwn.com~ So, God is no longer Satisfaction only creates ups and downs and difficulties for him, and it directly ends his life, allowing him to go to heaven to be company.

Although Kurt really devoted himself to the band’s sword work in 1998, and the album "Don’t Mind" is only Nirvana’s second album, his amazing talent has shocked countless people and made the "Nirvana Band" this The name has become a name that cannot be ignored in the history of rock and roll. It’s unbelievable that although the Nirvana band has only existed for six short years, among the top ten historical rock bands selected by countless professional music magazines, they are able to unswervingly occupy a place, along with the Queen and the Rolling Stones. Classic bands like The Beatles stand side by side.

The brilliance and ups and downs of Kurt's life are condensed in the music of the Nirvana Band, shining across the sky like a meteor.

Even if Hugo is no longer a rookie in Los Angeles, even if Hugo has been in the entertainment industry for two years, but at this moment, when Hugo sees Kurt's bohemian figure close at hand, he still can't help but slow down. After breathing, he looked at Kurt intently, as if at this moment, history bloomed proudly at the feet of Kurt. (To be renewed.
