Just disordered bits and pieces, I'm afraid.
Sometimes the entries are topics which I find interesting, sometimes they are just songs my students (or I) like and their lyrics and sometimes they are things I think will be useful for an English lesson at Secondary School.
I hope you like it.

25th November. International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women
25th November is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
This date came from the brutal assassination of the three Mirabal sisters, political activists in the Dominican Republic, on orders of Dominican ruler Rafael Trujillo in 1960.
WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST REASONS FOR SUFFERING FROM VIOLENCE?
THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
GET INVOLVED. DON'T LOOK THE OTHER WAY.
Don't look the other side.
If you know someone is being abused, denounce it.
Call 016 to get help.
