I can relate to Jamie, my Dad was in alot of ways like his older brother, I was watching a talk show one time on Racism, A Black woman in audience stood up and said "Nigger is an ATTITUDE, not a color!" I thought she made alot of sence. My Dad tried for most of my childhood, and even into my adulthood, to get me to hate other Races,but he didn't succede.
This story explores one boy's dicision to do what's right. NO child is born hating, Their taught to hate!
My Movie Rating:
9 / 10 Important story, good movie.
