Exclusion And Perseverance In Remember The Titans

Remember The Titans was a movie that was set in a very hostile time in our country. We were in the middle of what I like to call a civil war. Although there were no battles or gunfights our country was torn in half. There was an issue dealing with race in the United States. The movie, Remember the Titans is based on actual events that occurred in the year 1971. Mainly on the integration of a school called TC Williams High School. When the school was integrated the old football coach, Coach Yoast, was let go and a black coach Herman Boone was hired on. The main plot of this movie is regarding the coaching change in the school and the 1971 football season the TC Williams Titans have.

In the movie Remember the Titans, the plot shows clear examples of race and ethnicity discrimination and Sexual orientation discrimination. One of the first scenes that show the issue of race and ethnicity discrimination is when the coach (Coach Boon) house is being vandalized by the “white players” when they throw rocks at his house. It is evident that the players don’t want the Coach or his Family in the neighborhood due to the colour of their skin. Another example is When Julius walks into the room and is completely ignored by a group of White girls when he says Hi to them, the nature of the movie suggests that if Julius has been of Lighter Skin, the girls would have reacted differently to him by saying Hi back. An example of Sexual Orientation discrimination in the movie is when they refer to a male player as Sunshine as he is homosexual, it is even more evident in the scene where the group of football players are uncomfortable around the character Ronnie as he is homosexual. The behaviours shown in the movie are learnt behaviours, the discrimination shown in the movie shows that white characters are acting on their judgment against the black characters with no substance behind their behaviours, and no real reason for them to be acting that way. It is clear that Discrimination is a

But there was a problem with the leadership in the film as the Titans were divided, into blacks and whites, so the captain of the team, Gerry, did not have the respect of the blacks because he was white. Gerry did not get along with the blacks at first especially Julius. At first, they would not acknowledge each other and they were considered enemies. Gerry was judgmental, racist and arrogant towards Julius, which made it hard for them to work together. Julius didn’t feel connected to the team because none of the white player were blocking for the black players. He stood his ground against Gerry and held him accountable for his 'lack' of

Remember the Titans, is a film that is about a predominantly white culture in an era that is predominantly white dominated over blacks. In the film, the school makes a very bold movement of combining both black colored students and white colored students so that they attend the same school. In addition, the school also demotes their successful white football coach to instead a black football coach, something that had never been done before.

Remember the Titans is a classic football movie filled with many obstacles. These obstacles vary from racism to dealing with death. It’s based on a true story that took place in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971. What makes this movie classic is how the players and coaches were able to overcome the issue of segregation and build relationships to form a championship team.

Remember the Titans was made to show you what it was like to be white and be black in an integrated school for the first time. There were many hardships but the power of having equality, common goals and supportive authority gave the players and coaches the push they needed to become the team they were. Racial harmony is not as easy as a Disney made movie makes it seem but showing the growing populace even today that it is possible gives what we are fighting for even today more

Director Boaz Yakin created film “Remember the Titans”. This film was set placed in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971. At this time T.C. Williams high school was the first school having black race and white race together and neither race were happy about it. This film talks about how they overcome the racism and how each individual person on the team become one as team. And analysis of “remember the titans” shows people can overcome challenges by hard work, determination and perseverance.

In the film “Remember the Titans”, we see a cultural environment in 1971 refusing to accept the idea of racial equality (the main issue raised in the movie). The film displays the issue of racism and illustrates how one can overcome prejudice by uniting for a common cause or goal. During the course of this movie, there were many social behaviors at work that dealt with racism and discrimination. These obstacles didn’t stop the football team from socially overcoming those difficulties.

Remember the Titans is a film from 2000 displaying a true story of a racially divided football team from the 1970s. The movie highlights the relationships of the black and white people, and how they learned to interact with each other in a time when this was not the way of life. It brings up a number of questions throughout, of what is right and what is wrong, and really challenges the characters, making it a very interesting movie to watch. I have seen this movie many times, and each time I feel like I get something new out of it. It is a movie that can be used as a teaching tool, it does a great job of interpreting not only what was happening in the United States of America at that time, but social psychology concepts through real life

Remember the Titans, is based on a true story about an African-American coach, Herman Boone, who became the head coach at a newly integrated high school. The movie is surrounding a racially diverse football team at T. C. Williams High School in the town of Alexandria Virginia. The movie Remember the Titans focus on a football team that overcomes racial tension and diversity and eventually adapts to their new environment and unite in society to become a winning football team.

Loneliness is a feeling that everyone will experience at some point in their life. Loneliness can be felt even when you’re in a room full of people. In “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” the characters, including Charlie, are no exception to this feeling of being lonely. Teenagers are probably the age group that has this feeling the most. This a time in life that you are changing, the people around you are changing, and you’re finally growing up and maturing and each person handles these changes differently. We each will feel this as some point as we grow and realize that the things and the people that we have grown accustomed to won’t be there anymore because it’s time for us to experience new things in life.

The theme of Remember the Titans is what is on the inside is more important than what is on the outside. At first, all that anyone cared about was whether or not you were white. In the movie, Julius said to a white guy “what are you doing here you should be their, with your people.” This shows that even though he was being nice and sitting with them Julius got mad because of what the whites have done in the past to him and to his now dead friend. Later, even though the team has learned to accept each other that bond is being broken by the town that can’t accept what they have gone through. Berry’s mom doesn’t like Berry hanging around Julius, so she makes him go to church with her instead of going to play basketball with Julius. Many of the

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a novel about coming of age that is seen through the perspective of Charlie, a young ‘wallflower’ that is starting high school and experiences the troublesome teenage life filled with drugs, sexuality and love. Charlie writes this book in a series of letters to an anonymous person. Charlie is the main protagonist of the story who is apprehensive and a kind-hearted boy however he has many problems happening in his life that he doesn’t like to concern others with “I just don’t want you to worry about me, or think you’ve met me, or waste your time anymore”. I admire Charlie because he is very considerate of others and although he is shy he overcomes this fear when he tries to find friends and step out of his comfort zone” Normally I am very shy, but (Patrick) seemed like the kind of guy you could just walk up to at a football game even though you were three years younger and not popular”. In return Charlie is rewarded with his first real friend at high school. I also admire Charlie for his mature attitude towards finding new friends and moving on from the death of his friend Michael. Charlie really needed to start interacting more with people, during the story we find out that Charlie misses having a friend and that being alone can be difficult and cause negative effects “It would be very nice to have a friend again. I would like that even more than a date”. I think

In the Perks of Being a Wallflower, directed by the author of the book Stephen Chbosky, I admire Patrick and Charlie’s strong friendship featured throughout the film. Right at the beginning of the film I had already started to feel sympathetic and uncomfortable for Patrick because we learn that Patrick is constantly being called “Nothing” as a nickname by the rest of the kids in their class, Charlie says something about how, “Patrick usually isn’t unhappy.” and this shows us the audience about Charlie’s first impression of Patrick, he was the happy and flamboyant/class clown of the class but also suggests that Patrick is actually hiding some dark secrets. The first time we see the friendship of Patrick and Charlie grow was when Patrick tells Charlie that he was in a secret relationship with the football team’s quarterback, Brad.

Many interactions were changed between him and his sister, dubbed Candace in the movie. In the book of Perks of Being a Wallflower Charlie's sister becomes pregnant. Charlie is the only one who she confides in and he takes her to a clinic to get an abortion. Sharing this secret really characterized the relationship between the two in the book but was left out of the movie. The movie did add however a different moment between the two of them, except the roles were reversed and Charlie was the one in need.
