The role of Gender from the 1950’s onwards has created a great influence on how modern, western adolescents develop their interpretation of their position in society, creating a sense of identity as well as the rights and responsibilities that come with their gender.

The second Sudanese Civil War in Sudan forced millions of innocent people to flee their homes and families in search for safety. Doing so, many got displaced or killed because of starvation, genocidal murder and bomb raids. Those who survived were sent to a refugee camp in Kenya and some - the “lost boys”- a name given by aid workers at the camp, had the fortune to be sent by the United States to America to start a new life. Among these were Panther Bior, John Bul Dau, and Daniel Abol Pach, whose life was documented in God Grew Tired of Us. Furthermore, the documentary explores the lives of the Lost Boys of Sudan and their journey as they learn to adapt to the American Life, a life much better and advanced than the oppressed life they lived.

With actual footage and relatable characters, the film sets a tone that evokes sympathy to viewers, thus relaying a need of action and validating his message of Americans’ forgetfulness and ignorance to their blessings.

The Breakfast Club, produced in 1985, is a famous film about five strangers who at first glance, seem to all be extremely different. Commonly referred to as “the criminal, the princess, the brain, the athlete, and the basketcase,” the students all have distinct personas. However, as the movie progresses, they discover they all have much more in common than they had previously thought.

Communicating between strangers, bonding with other students much different from yourself, and forming of new friendships are all situations I have witnessed firsthand. Throughout the movie, communication and the formation of relationships prove to be main focal points.
