Movie English 1 : Freedom Writers

I watched Freedom Writers in Movie English class. 
This is teacher's question and my feedback.

1.Freedom Writers is based on the true story of a class of Woodrow Wilson high school students struggling to survive violent racial tension on a daily basis. The school is racially divided and is described by one of the characters as being "like the city, and the city is just like a prison, all of them divided into separate sections, depending on tribes. There's Little Cambodia. The Ghetto. Wonder Bread Land. And us, South of the Border or Little Tijuana. That's just the way it is, and everyone knows it. But soon enough, you have little wannabes trying to hit you up at school. demanding respect they haven't earned. 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"

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. As outsider looking in would never see it, but we could feel it. Something was coming." Give examples and details from the movie

A: 1. Eva is one of the girl who had a trying experience. So, she said that. “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.” It is saying a lot. In movie, she ran like run away from antagonistic tribes in city. Not only Eva but also she’s classmate. They walk to and from school at risk to their life because there were gangland bloodletting or dueling about prejudice of race.

One day, Latino American gang tried to gun black gang down but they mistaked and gun down Asian boy. These problem as their fear that doesn’t make sense to outsider like Ms.G.

2. Two years ago voluntary integration was introduced into the school district.

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.

A: The Woodrow Wilson High School was school where get together able students some time ago. But the school district introduced voluntary integration the abolition of racial discrimination After L.A. Riots. The Woodrow Wilson High School teachers thought poorly of that. A principal, Ms.Campbell and other teachers took students as a fool. Teachers thought students doesn’t have intellectual interest because most students spend their time private war. So teachers disdained students.

I think that teacher’s attitude caused problem of a student's misbehavior. Other teachers didn’t try to look identity of students. For example, Ms.Cambell said no about buy new educational material for students because that is squandering of budgetary allocations. And top class’s teacher asked black girl question about black intensively. I disagree with attitudes of these teachers

3. 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."

Q: 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?

A: I think Miep Gies wanted to say that race, sex, age, position, and rich or poor doesn’t matter to do own job properly or do the right things. Actually, Miep Gies who hide Ann from Nazis was ordinary people, too. I think so.

I have had moment what I thought this is the right but I couldn’t do that. Because I’m not had courage. I want to come across this movie much earlier.

4.Erin Gruwell had the students make a "toast for change" in the movie.

Q: 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.

A: Erin had the students make a “toast for change!” What that means is, from this moment on every voice that told you “You can't" is silenced. Every reason that tells you things will never change, disappears. And the person you were before this moment, that person's turn over. Said Erin.

I think there words moved their hearts. They doesn’t obsessed with the past and step forward. For example, they reads Ann Frank and they collecting money for ask Meip Gies over high school. Erin had a profound influence on their life.

5. The tittle of the movie is also the tittle of the book Erin Gruwell's students published about their various experiences.

Q: Why did the students decide the call their book "Freedom Writers?" Give specific examples from the movie.

A: This title means they who wrote a diary. They wrote free about their past, family, late friends, gang, hope and anything. And this title proceed white and black drive across the country by bus and achieved racial equality movement when civil-rights movement.
