A steady stream of cars and pedestrians jammed the streets around the Holt Street Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. By early evening a patient, orderly, and determined crowd of over 5,000 African Americans had packed the church and spilled over onto the sidewalks. Loudspeakers had to be set up for the thousands who could not 1 squeeze inside. After a brief prayer and a reading from the Scripture, all attention focused on the twenty-six-year-old minister who was to address the gathering. “We are here this evening,” he began slowly, “for serious business. We are here in a general sense because first and foremost we are American citizens and we are determined to apply our citizenship to the fullness of its means.” Rosa Parks, a seamstress and well-known activist in Montgomery’s African American community, had been arrested and put in jail for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. Montgomery’s black community had long endured the humiliation of 2 a strictly segregated bus system. The day of the mass meeting, over 30,000 African Americans had answered a hastily organized call to boycott the city’s buses in protest of Parks’s arrest. Even before the minister concluded his speech, it was clear to all present that the bus boycott would continue for more than just a day. By the time he finished his brief but stirring address, the minister had created a powerful sense of communion. “If we are wrong, justice is a lie,” he told the clapping and shouting throng. “And we are 3 determined here in Montgomery to work and fight until justice runs down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.” Historians would look back at Montgomery, he noted, and have to say, “ ‘There lived a race of people, black people, fleecy locks and black complexion, of people who had the moral courage to stand up for their rights.’ And thereby they injected a new meaning into the veins of history and civilization.” The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., made his way out of the church amid waves of applause and rows of hands reaching out to touch him. His speech catapulted 4 him into leadership of the Montgomery bus boycott, and it also proved him to be a prophet a. Loudspeakers were set up for those who could not fit inside the church. b. Rosa Parks was jailed for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. c. The bus boycott would continue for more than just one day. d. Dr. King’s speech proved him to be a prophet.
La Paz, Bolivia, como muchas capitales, brega a con problemas de tráfico que amenazan la seguridad pública. Por ejemplo, uno de los grandes problemas es que los conductores no frenan totalmente cuando llegan a los pasos peatonales, también llamados «pasos de cebra» porque tienen líneas pintadas en blanco sobre el asfalto negro. Frustrada con la indiferencia a las leyes, la alcaldía propuso una solución creativa para reencauzar b la atención de los conductores: jóvenes disfrazados de cebras, los animales, para ayudar a imponer las leyes. Antes de su llegada en 2005, había plena indiferencia hacia la luz roja de los semáforos y cualquier peatón corría peligro en cruzar la calle. Hoy en día las cebras no eliminan estos problemas totalmente, pero sí mejoran los patrones c del
tráfico con sus gestos divertidos, sus señales de «gracias» y a veces el bloqueo de los carriles d con cuerda. e Incluso bailan en las calles para proteger a los peatones. El número de accidentes fatales bajó mucho desde que llegaron a las esquinas de La Paz. Su impacto ha sido tan enorme que en 2015 ganaron el reconocimiento de la UNESCO como patrimonio cultural. f Las cebras, quienes suelen tener entre 16 y 22 años, son empleados de la ciudad. Unos están pagando sus estudios o ayudando a sus familias mientras que otros están recuperándose de una vida difícil. Es una oportunidad para los que han tenido problemas con drogas de entrar en la sociedad de nuevo y ganarse la vida. Al principio había un poco de resistencia e incluso una cebra atropellada, pero ahora forman una parte respetada de la ciudad. Si alguien intenta resistir a una cebra, se encuentra con la furia del púbico. Tal control social ha dado lugar a la reducción de accidentes fatales. Su estatus, de hecho, ahora es tan alto que existe un término para sus aficionados: cebramigos. El artículo menciona que la UNESCO… a. rechazó una propuesta de reconocer a las cebras como patrimonial cultural. b. está considerando las cebras de La Paz como patrimonio cultural. c. reconoció a las cebras como patrimonio cultural.
