1)DIVERSITY
What is Diversity?
Diversity can be defined in many different ways. What
does it mean to us?
Diversity is a commitment to recognizing and
appreciating the variety of characteristics that make
individuals unique in an atmosphere that promotes and
celebrates individual and collective achievement.
Examples of these characteristics are: age; cognitive style;
culture; disability (mental, learning, physical); economic
background; education; ethnicity; gender identity;
geographic background; language(s) spoken;
marital/partnered status; physical appearance; political
affiliation; race; religious beliefs; sexual orientation.
2)URBAN TRIBES
Urban tribes are made up by groups of people – usually young, with
a distinct common identity: the same aesthetic codes, the same
identity symbols, the same rules, the same language, the same
music… A whole ideology!
3)Gothics
they were born in England between
the 70s and the 80s. They share
the same style, musical and cultural
dark tastes. Their aesthetic focuses
on the colour black: Both their
clothes and their makeup are black.
Their favourite music styles are the
Gothic rock and death rock among
others. They love death and
everything associated with
obscurantism, but they are not a
violent group. On the contrary, this
tribe pleads for the tolerance and
the diversity.
Dress style of the gotics
Goth or gothic is a subculture usually identified
by the fact that its members (Goths/gothics)
wear mostly black, and often dress
"differently", for example, in long, ornate
dresses, or skintight PVC or accessorizing with
punk jewelers such as spiked collars. Other
popular items of clothing among Goths include
fishnet (stockings, gloves, tops, etc), long
black coats, lace, silver jewelers, black band t-
shirts, and large buckle or lace-up boots.
4)Punks
they are known as anti globalization groups. The Punk was
born in the late 70s in the UK. The punks are an
anarchistic group: they are against capitalism,
neoliberalism and consumerism. As with other tribes, they
share some specific music and fashion styles. They wear
used clothes, mostly black (combined with other explosive
colours). It is usually broken, patched and adorned with
logos of punk bands and anti-repression slogans.
Normally they have shaved hair with a mohawk or
coloured crest which denotes social status. Their favourite
musical bands are The Ramones, The Clash o the Sex
Pistols. Experts consider them genuine urban guerrillas
because of their continued fights against the police.
5)Emos
this tribe has recently emerged
with a great force, especially
among the teenagers. Usually
dressed in black, with painted
lips and eyes, they look very
androgynous. They are usually
depressed and hate life in
general, which to them is
worthless and meaningless.
The “emo” term comes from
‘emotional’. It originated in the
80s hardcore and punk music.
Their present songs have
added sentimental, sad and
suicidal messages. They are
not dangerous to other people,
but maybe they are to
themselves because of their
suicide tendency.
