2014.3.20

It was a cold rainy day.

I went to Ikebukuro (池袋) in the morning, then to Kawasaki (川崎) in the afternoon to watch a movie "The Butler."  This was another Black people's movie inspired by the true story.  The Japanese title is "Daitoryo no shitsuji no namida (大統領の執事の涙)," meaning "Tears of the President's Butler."  The Japanese title of "12 years a slave" is also quite different from the original title.  It is "Soredemo yo wa akeru (それでも夜は明ける), " meaning "Even so the dawn comes."  After watching these movies, I feel I did not understand the reality of the civil rights movement.  There must be still many discrimination here and there in the world.  We need to change this.

In the evening I went to tea lesson and grocery shopping but did not go to stretching exercise.
