The 80’s were a scary time in America with rising tentions within minority communities, the destabilaztion of the economy, and the aids epidemic. The movie “Straight Outta Compton” was a significant cinematic production in many ways by having actors that portrayed their characters almost to perfection, a historical accurate story line, and a film crew that did an amazing job for every scene shot. F.Gary Gary masterfully captures the emotions of a generation by using; talented actors, a poient soundtrack, a complex interpersonal plot, and dark cinematography.

With “Straight Outta Compton” being well received and reviewed by major audiences and critics all over, many are excited that a “black film”, a hip-hop biopic even can do so well and make incredible numbers. NWA has played an important role in speaking out about the injustice of their community and rapped about their personal obstacles, which can be still brought up and familiarized today, especially with the surge of police brutality and protest against such terrible injustices.

This media addresses socialization, specifically racial socialism. Racial socialism is the belief in race, and racial stratification as a personal and group identity. Straight Outta Compton has various times where individuals and groups are profiled for belief of wrongdoing or criminal activity due to racial identity (Dosan 2015). At one point during the movie the rap group goes outside to take a break, and the police comes out assuming that they are “bangers” and demands they get on the ground (Myres 2015). The manager comes out and says” you can't just arrest people just cause what they look like”, “thats police harassment”. This is indicative of a bigger issue in where they were assumed to be gangsters be cause they are “black”. Racial persecution and socialization is truly shown when Ice-cube

Every human has a right to an education. Despite this definition, evidence of inequality based on race, class, and gender can be seen in the system despite good intentions to promote awareness of and appreciation for cultural differences.

The event I attended was a movie called The Hunting Grounds. It was about sexual assault on campuses all over the United States and how many campuses had been ignoring the fact that there were assaults on their campuses and blamed it on the fact that the victims were dressed a certain way or that there was alcohol involved. The general idea was that it was the victims fault that they got assaulted, and the college or university had little to no consequences for their perpetrator. This event was of interest to me because I had heard good reviews about the movie, plus it was a learning opportunity to see what the process is like for other schools who have to deal with sexual assault. It was interesting to see how each school had a different

The biopic movie Straight Outta Compton attempts to tell the story of the men behind the group and the West Coast hip hop movement. In the movie, N.W.A.'s manager, Jerry Heller, is shown to be a rat. His character is after his own glory, money and has no real interest in the artists, even causing rifts between them.

The gang members are portrayed by their clothing they are wearing. The colors blue for Crips and the color reds for Bloods. The Hispanic gangs clothing style of tank tops and baggy pants above the belly are taking from the real lifestyle of Hispanic gangs from Los Angeles. The police officers are in the middle of investigating the crimes and violence committed by the gangs. The gangs are in jails and are segregated based on whether they are a Blood or a Crip this is to show that they are rivals gangs. The gangs

The popularity of this movie was built on the fact that the NWA is a well know hip hop group from 1980s and 1990s in the US. In addition, it presents the reality of musicians who are from poor neighborhoods and thrived in life. Therefore, many young people in similar condition would naturally be interested to know the journey of the group. Its popularity among young Americans who aspire to be successful in the future is caused by the message of encouragement that is present in it.

The title "Straight Outta Compton" comes from N.W.A's debut album and title track with the same name. The movie started its filming in

I don't think I can understate how much I liked this movie. Let Us Prey is a British/Irish horror film that's fun, if not slightly unoriginal. But it does get major points for not coming across uneven, given at a few points the film could have fallen apart but didn't. The best way for me to describe Let Us Prey is that it's Assault on Precinct 13, a dash of The Ninth Gate, and just a dab Storm of the Century. What really held this film together was the wonderful performances from the films leads Liam Cunningham and Pollyanna McIntosh. So not to get ahead of myself...

​ Straight Outta Compton, a movie released in 2015, depicts the formation, prevalence, dissolution and reorganization of the gangsta rap group N.W.A (Niggaz Wit Attitudes). It is a top-grossing movie with a box office reaching 56.1 million USD. So, why this movie has made such a great success and has received such a high reputation nationwide? As far as I am concerned, the reason lies in its disclosure of American social issues at the end of 1980s. It is indeed a mirror that reflects the American social issues at that time with the description of the socio-economic and political structure of the Reagan Era especially from the late 1980s to the early 1990s. After watching the movie, I found that there are three major conflicts in the American society, namely the racial discrimination against
