Poison
Throughout history, humans have always tried to understand the mysterious power of toxins. In doing so, they sometimes discovered healing medicine, and sometimes lethal mixtures. This DVD treats the history and origin of poisons and their use by man. The most common and most dangerous known poisons are introduced. A journey into the body unveils the secrets of the deadly substances and shows how poisons work and why some kill slowly and painfully while others take effect suddenly and unexpectedly. Many plants and fungi produce life-threatening substances. But animal poisons are unparalleled in their effects. These ex- periments of nature also inspired human preparers of poison as well as healers. The most mysterious cases from history and nature could be re-opened. With the help of the new findings, new cures might be developed.

Learn moreMartin Luther King
Martin Luther King, born and raised in the household of a pastor, was one of the privileged blacks. He saw and experienced the injustice of social oppression and racism, which were particularly pronounced in the Southern States of the USA, and some of which are still lingering today. He called for demonstrations and civil disobedience and became the spokesman for the Civil Rights Movement of the USA: ”But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.“ In his famous speech Martin Luther King referred to the “inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” established in the American Declaration of Independence: ”I have a dream – I have a dream deeply rooted in the American Dream“, King announced his utopia of a just America amid tremendous applause from the crowd. In spite of the violent repressions of the demonstrations he remained an ardent proponent of nonviolent resistance, deeply impressed by Mahatma Gandhi and the Bible. In 1964, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Price. The film shows moving moments of the life and achievements of Martin Luther King up to his assassination. Together with the teaching material in the data section, the DVD is perfectly suited for use in the classroom.
