MYTH ABOUT NORTH KOREA

-

 LET'S BE FAIR. WE'VE ALL HEARD THEM, BUT SOME OF THESE ARE REALLY BAD. THESE ARE 4 NORTH KOREA MYTHS AND WHY THEY ARE Absolutely FALSE!


Myth 1: North Korea is just about Kim Jong Un and nuclear weapons.


North Korea is more than Kim Jong-un and nuclear missiles, to be sure. It is home to 25 million people who are subjected to one of the most brutal regimes in the world. The focus of the media is on Kim Jong Un and nuclear weapons. However, the people of North Korea and their stories remind us that it is a nation full of promise and hope. Here you can read about the people of North Korea.




Myth 2: The entire population of North Korea has been brainwashed.



The dictatorship wants the world to see goosestepping soldiers and videos of hysterical crowds cheering for the Kim dynasty. However, it is by no means the complete frame. Also the regime's tight control does not prevent North Koreans from becoming more conscious of their surroundings.

North Koreans have new outlets to the outside thanks to new technologies and smuggled foreign products in the Jangmadang (markets). And this unfettered access to illicit international media is eroding regime support. North Koreans binge-watch South Korean dramas and Hollywood films just like everyone else—even if they don't have access to the internet! There is a way where there is a will!


‍


‍Myth 3: North Korea is hopeless and unchanging.


Yeah, the citizens of North Korea are subjected to the world's most oppressive regime. They are, however, upending the status quo and questioning the regime's hold on power at the grassroots. They're starting companies, and those who are able to leave the country are sending money and information back. The changes they're bringing in are permanent, and they're small steps toward reform and opening up within North Korea. Time and time again, North Koreans prove their resourcefulness and resilience in a system that has failed them.


Myth 4: There's nothing I can do to help the people of North Korea.

That's incorrect! Though it might seem that North Korea is a problem too large for any one person to solve, you can still help North Korean refugees today by taking any of the following steps:

1. Make a donation to help finance rescue efforts.

2. Witness a real-life rescue operation!

3. Form a rescue team in your school or community to raise money and raise awareness about the North Korean crisis.

4. Build a Facebook fundraiser to support refugees by raising funds in your neighbourhood.

5. Enter the global campaign for North Koreans by following us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube,

 My cricket obsession started long before I reached adolescence; we Indians regard cricket as a religion; despite the fact that cricket is not our national sport, it is the second most common entity in India after politics; Indian cricket stirs the emotions of every Indian, regardless of age or gender; in this game, we have set numerous world records; we have ruled the world with our spirit to the game. Although the game was introduced to India by the British in the late 1880s, India joined the 'elite party' in June 1932, which included Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, and the West Indies. The first Lords match between India and England drew a crowd of 24,000 people, including the King of the United Kingdom. Cricket is an integral part of Indian culture. The Indian team has a rivalry with the Pakistani team, and matches between the two teams are among the most awaited and widely broadcast matches of all time.  The Indian cricket team started to gain internat...

PREHISTORY : HUMAN ORIGINS

  Millions of years before industry,  agriculture and civilization the world stage was set for one creature's  unprecedented rise.  The story of humanity's evolution began about seven million years ago when the human lineage broke away from that of chimpanzees. Over time an ensemble cast of over 20 early humans species or hominins came to the fore. Most became extinct while others might have been ancestors to today's humans. Each species exhibited varying degrees of human like physical and behavioral traits such as large brains, small teeth, bipedality and tool use. These hominins fell into three major groups. Early hominins, australopithecines, and homo genus. Humanity's earliest relatives lived between seven and 4.4 million years ago in Africa. Having most recently shared a common ancestor with chimpanzees they had many ape-like traits such as a small cranial capacity. However fossils s...
