Remember the Titans

Remember the Titans is a movie addressing racial discrimination and a first year African-American coach tries to handle a racially integrated team. This movie represents the difficulty of a team coming together to achieve something greater and the team represents all of the US that if they were to come together they could achieve greatness. The writers of the script and the directors of the movie present these messages through the way certain situations arise in the movie. The intentions of the movie are to show the people watching how difficult it was to become integrated but how great it really is when everyone can be treated as the same. The director and writers did a great job representing these tense moments of discrimination and prejudice which was very accurate because there really were very harsh feelings between African-Americans and white people. The movie is targeting anyone who would like a better understanding of what life was like between the two different ethnicities at the time. It also appeals to people who just enjoy good stories and great movies that are very well done. The story is very accurate because it is based on a true story and it accurately represents the relationship between African-Americans and white people. With this story I will learn that you can overcome any adversity if you just stay persistent and also it teaches me that discrimination is wrong and that everyone is equal.
