After exploring the themes and concepts of the texts we have studied in class, I have developed an understanding of the struggles and successes of other’s life experiences.

In addition to “Remember The Titans,” directed by Boaz Yakin, revealing how extreme racism and discrimination was in the 1960’s for African Americans. Thus, allowing the reader to experience the world from another person’s perspective.

Tolerance is a concept that permeates through our everyday lives and we find ourselves presented with situations where understanding is a key aspect we must employ.

This is an incredibly strong moral that guides us and expresses that in the face of conflict, facing our enemy is the best way in learning how to be accepting. This notion of tolerance is exemplified predominately through the themes…

After reading the book Ruth in the Bible, I was surprised at how similar the stories really were. In both stories, Boaz is extremely kind and good to Ruth, even if she was a foreigner. I was very happy to find this similarity because this point stuck out strongly to me when reading Ruth and Boaz. There were two different parts of the story that, in my opinion, were not similar. There is no proof of these two points being different however, for the author of Ruth and Boaz has written down nothing…

My favorite film is Remember the Titans. The film is about a football team and their struggles with integrating an African American high school and a Caucasian high school. Taking place in Virginia in 1971, the film shows the racial tension of the community using techniques to make it cinematic. One of the ways that allows the viewer to understand the tension in the movie is with camera angles. The director, Boaz Yakin, uses multiple camera angles to show both segregation and also unity of the…
