In the movie "Remember the Titans” there are many lessons that every person should learn in their life. One of the most important lessons is that of racism. In this day and age some people believe that racism is over because there are no longer any slaves, some people believe that there is still racism but that it is ok. I believe that those people would benefit a great deal from seeing this movie. I know that there is still racism, I also know that it is not ok.
There is a scene in this movie where the coach takes the team on a long run in the middle of the night. They end up at the break of dawn at a cemetery. The coach tells the young men of the battle that was fought on that ground. He told of the blood shed on those grounds that turned the whole area red. This was a very important moment in the story. Without this I do not think that the team would have ever come together because they had been raised to hate each other their whole life. In this world we learn just about all of our beliefs from our parents, right or wrong. If we are to ever overcome the misguided beliefs we gain from our parents we need a very good explanation of why we should believe another way. I think that all these young men were raised to be racists to varying degrees. This graveyard moment was a very clear message that could not be misunderstood.
