This time I will write about one movie. I wrote about this before but this is not same. In my another class I watched it and teacher asked us 5 question about that movie. And I answered. The movie is Freedom Writers.
Q. What do you
think she meant when she said “It looks like this, one
tribe drifting quietly to another's territory without respect, as if to claim
what isn't theirs. An outsider looking in would never see it, but we could feel
it. Something was coming.” Give examples and details from the movie.
One day
the violence happened. It is like one tribe attack to other tribes and uses the
gun, it may cause murder but it is not unusual. There are many tribes and they
are always separate and they never cross. There are Asian, Latin, black, white
and other. In the city always rivalry happens so they go to school including
Eva because they there are originally safe place, but there is not safe. Every
student feels like that and nobody protect of course as for the teacher. I
think she said like that the inside and outside in school dangerous too and
they can feel it but teachers cannot feel it so it is nothing to do with white.
Q. What is voluntary integration? And
what did some of the Wilson High School teachers
think
about voluntary integration? Do you agree or disagree with the attitudes of
these
teachers?
Why? Include details from the movie.
I think
voluntary integration is entering other territory by oneself. Some of teachers
of the special advance class are do not interested in the student of the 203
special class because they think that the student of the 203 special class do
not have identity so they never watch the problem that they face but only Ms. G
was different. She was trying to give them the teaching materials and books. I
agree with her action because I think her thought to be right as a teacher.
Q. Miep Gies, the women who hid
Anne Frank in her attic, said that “we are all ordinary people. But even an
ordinary secretary or a housewife or a teenager can, within their own small way,
turn on a small light in a dark room.”
What do you think Miep Gies was trying to say to the students when she
said this? How do you think you could put this statement into practice in your
own life?
I think
that Miep Gies said is very common practice. We are existing as one human being
and we are all equality I think but the world is different. What I felt like
that is because maybe I am in the safe place it mean like in my around does not
have danger like them. Therefore we have to realize what is happened in around
us.
Q. Erin Gruwell had the students
make a “toast for change” in the movie.
What was the purpose of doing a
toast for change? Do you think it was effective in helping the students? Use
details from the movie to support your answer.
I think
the purpose of a toast for change is believe that you can do it. It is
mean like
you must not give up everything.
The
change was good effective to them. They did not do something for change
because
they gave up everything, they did not have even hope but they
changed.
Q. The title of
the movie is also the title of the book Erin Gruwell’s students published about
their various experiences.
Why did the students decide to call their book “Freedom Writers?” Give
specific examples from the movie.
The
reason why the student decide to call their book ”Freedom Writers” is the story
is their dairy and it is real experience. They wrote about own and family and
friends and hope and emotion. They can write all of things free. They can
decide own life by oneself freely they can say what they feel freely, everybody
have chance in the same way.
