And who is the "voice" of Greed & Capitalism, & Neglect, who were the characters responsible for this disaster? I was 7 when this happened; it was 5 days after my birthday; my life changed, & do you know what? It has informed the way I live my life - I will kick up a fuss about these corporate bastards as long as I'm able. I owe it - to those children, & their teachers, & the villagers, who lived across the next valley from me. So, if you cry - well, then, get angry, then take action..... !
As you are a child it is difficult for you to fully understand; your teachers have chosen for you a subject that is in poor taste. I do think that dramatisations of true tragic events can be made successfully; such as Anne Frank's diary. Such sensitive matters, however should not be placed in the hands of children like yourself as you are not mature enough to treat such things with the gravity required, yet.
In our drama class at school, we are doing a performance of the Aberfan disaster. We all have parts, eg; parent of a dead/injured child, miner, one of the digger, a survivor, a teacher, or a dead child speaking from heaven.
I'm a dead child speaking from heaven, and whatever our part we have to write and perform a monologue of what happened in the view of our character and our feelings about the Aberfan landslide disaster.
It's really emotional and makes me cry every lesson. </3
@TheInkSplodge Thats the most sick thing I have ever heard. It is disrespectful, and this disaster is not funny. Your school should be ashamed of themselves. Disgusting.
@JackArthurEllis and how is it sick? i never said it was funny, it's part of our course and we have to do it. some of us HAVE to be speaking from heaven.
@TheInkSplodge... Number one, it is disrespectful to those who lost children and family in the disaster, number two it sounds like you are making fun of the disaster, which it is NOT, and number three, you could never put yourself into the shoes of those parents digging at the sludge with their bare hands to try and save children. You will probably never experience that. The subject should be left alone.
@JackArthurEllis if you were actually in our drama class you would realise that number two is wrong. and also that we are not making fun of it, and i never said we could put ourselves in their shoes did i? no, and FYI some of our grandparents or parents in our drama class travelled to wales to help when it happened. thats why we are doing this performance.
