Located on Venice. Boulevard) is a very ordinary public high school, but due to the special geographical location of the high school, there are a large number of Latino students in the high school, as well as a small number of European, African, and Asian students.
As we all know, school violence in the United States has always been a deep-rooted problem, especially due to the lax gun control in the United States, many school violence problems cannot be eradicated, from gun confrontation to fist and foot confrontation, from vulgar language to rejection of action, physical violence and cold violence have always been one of the strictest problems in high school.
When people watch youth school comedy movies, there is often such a plot in it, the popular quarterback or basketball team members, often mixed with the cheerleading team, they will form their own circle, the so-called nerds, weirdos will be excluded. The cafeteria is divided into high and low seats, and some students even have to sit next to the trash can for lunch; In the case of Yan zhòng, members of the popular circle will not only sneer at the isolated crowd, but also add punches and kicks.
In fact, this is a true portrayal of school violence in the United States, but movies are often beautified and packaged, depicting it as just a children's fight, rather than a deep social problem. But something like "Song and Dance Youth (high. susical), "Glee", "Glee", or "mean. girl)", "Ameri. Discrimination and disdain against vulnerable groups will be presented in real life in a stricter manner.
In the 21st century, school violence has escalated, and school shootings in the United States have caused a sensation all over the world, whether it is the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia) in 2007. polyteistitute。 and。 state。 UY) two shootings on the same day, in which thirty-three people were killed and twenty-three injured; Also in 2012, Connecticut (State. of。 The vicious shooting of 28 people at an elementary school in Newton has sparked shock and attention around the world.
In fact, there are traces of such a situation in the history of the United States, especially after entering the 90s, due to the common factors of society, the crime situation has become more and more serious, according to statistics, violent crime in l993 is more than seven times that of 1960, and the proportion of school violence has increased even more alarmingly.
In 1990, a survey showed that one in 20 high school students brought a gun to school, and 80 percent of all those guns were brought from home, which made the simple school school face the threat of guns. As a result, more than 30,000 people were killed in the past l993, of which 18,000 committed suicide with guns and another 15,000 died at the guns of murderers.
To make matters worse, a 1993 statistic showed that crime between the ages of 12 and 19 had grown rapidly and was now the most frequent of all age groups, nearly six percentage points higher than the second-ranked age group of 20 to 34.
It can be seen that young people, especially high school students under the age of twenty, are more vulnerable to violent crime than other age groups. School violence has also begun to become serious with the introduction of guns into schools. Last year, the U.S. Congress passed laws to control gun control, but unfortunately the results were not obvious.
For all these reasons, school violence has always been one of the most troublesome problems in society, and it is mixed with race. The internal contradictions of the multi-ethnic campus of discrimination are even more irreconcilable, not only verbal and physical violence, but also poison. Pin, Gangster, Ai. Multiply. Illness and other problems, strict zhòng danger hài in the prime of high school students' normal life. As the gun problem grows, there are signs of further escalation of school violence.
In an effort to bring the situation under control, a campaign for the relief of young people was announced in Los Angeles last year called "Save L.A." l。 a)" aims to address a range of issues faced by modern urban youth and provide young people with information on drug abuse. knowledge, education and guidance on HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment, and to prevent gun violence that is now budding, hoping to alleviate the negative feelings of young people through psychological counseling, so as to indirectly reduce the occurrence of school violence.
At the same time, they will also arrange free extracurricular learning opportunities, such as computer education, tutor tutoring, homework help, math practice room, English teaching and performing arts teaching for students whose mother tongue is not English, etc., hoping to use guidance to get young people on the right track and fundamentally reduce the possibility of school violence.
This time in April, Save L.A. joined Los Angeles' city-states on campus, the Brothers and Sisters Association, the Best Foundation, the Watt Health Foundation, and the American Rejection. Poison. This is the second series of activities they have invested in after a collaboration last year, hoping to launch awareness activities in various high schools in California to directly engage with youth and promote positive information.
Venice High School is the first stop in April, and it is also the one that receives the most attention. In order to promote the event, Save L.A. plans to hold a concert at the Venice High School, with the most popular singers and bands among high school students in attendance. The concert is not only about attracting the attention of high school students, but also about charity fundraising—raising funds for upcoming events.
This time, the event "Save L.A." obviously took a lot of effort, not only did they invite the recent limelight Glory to death, but they also invited the Nirvana band, which had not performed in public for a while, and these two bands alone were enough to attract everyone's attention, after the Nirvana Band was born in l991, it brought grunge rock to the public; After the glorious debut in 1993, the rock dynasty was once again changed, and although the two bands had no grudges and did not meet, the topic was indeed very hot.
But not only that, "Save L.A." has also received the support of Michael Jackson, who has disappeared for nearly three months, although Michael will not attend the relevant activities in person, he still donated one million dollars to support the related activities, which has also caused a lot of media discussion.
So when Glory to Death arrives at Venice High School, it's no surprise to see the huge lineup of reporters in front of him.
Hugo and the others arrived at the scene two hours early to prepare, because there was still a long time before the performance, so although the campus was very lively, everyone was basically doing their own thing, and there were only one or two hundred people wandering around the playground, which looked very lively, but it was not crowded.
In such a situation, Glory to Death was easily surrounded by journalists.
Because this is a charity event, their purpose is to publicize the event and let the charity work be carried out smoothly, so the interview is a very important part, the five team members are scattered, and a large number of reporters are gathered in front of each person, and they start to be interviewed on the spot. Henry Bloom stayed on site to look after him, while Samora drove to the parking lot and then enlisted the help of the staff to move the band's instruments backstage.
Although Hugo has fused all his memories of himself and Lancaster, he doesn't remember much about school, mainly because Hugo left school at the age of fourteen or fifteen and devoted more time to work. However, Hugo is for poison. Pin's danger hài felt deeply, so when he was interviewed by reporters, he talked about it even more eloquently.
Just as Glory to Death was being interviewed, there was an exclamation behind him, Hugo didn't care, and still focused on the interview, but the reporters in front of him could see the situation behind Hugo, but they couldn't help but stop, which made Hugo have to turn his head to look over. Then Hugo saw Kurt a Cobain. When you think of Kurt and Cobain, what is the first image that comes to mind? What appeared in Hugo's mind was Kurt standing on the stage against the light, the light and shadow behind him were projected, the huge light seemed to be a huge burden on his back, a large shadow covered his expression in a blur, Kurt held the microphone casually in his right hand, as if relying on this to support the strength of his whole body, hanging his head, the shoulder-length hair made people only see the disdain and stubbornness at the corner of his mouth.
Hugo once really doubted that the so-called "jealous talent" was really there because of Cote and Cobain, and even God couldn't help but be jealous of this person's talent and talent, so God was no longer satisfied with just creating difficulties and difficulties for him, but also directly ended his life and let him go to heaven to accompany him.
Although Kurt didn't really devote himself to the band's sword work until l988, and the album "Don't Mind" was only the second album of Nirvana, his amazing talent shocked countless people, making the name "Nirvana" a name that cannot be ignored in the history of rock and roll. Incredibly, Nirvana has only survived for six years, but among the top 10 rock bands of all time selected by countless professional music magazines, they have been able to firmly occupy a place alongside classic bands such as Queen, Rolling Stones, and The Beatles.
The glories and ups and downs of Kurt's life are condensed in the music of Nirvana, shining like a shooting star in the sky.
Even though Hugo is no longer a rookie who has just come to Los Angeles, even though Hugo has been rolling in the entertainment industry for two years, but at this moment, when Hugo saw Kurt's bohemian figure close at hand, he couldn't help but slow down his breath and looked at Kurt intently, as if at this moment, history bloomed proudly at Kurt's feet.
