i think films like the titans work on education tools like trying to bring young viewers into watching their films so that the film can educate them on how football used too be like back in the day and it wasnt always easy like how it was now to get into a team.also i think films like this can also educate others when they are based on a true story because i bet a lot of people havent heard of this story so now they know the story of the titans

- Aside from the dialogue and plot, how did the film (visually) show the segregation and racism of Virginia during the time the film takes place?
i think it showed segregation when the people got on the bus there where seperated from the white bus and black bus. also when the blacks went to the school everyone disliked them and they got into a fight and people were holding signs and they whites thew a brick into the house of the blcak coach
What stereotypes does it reinforce?
it reinforces that blacks and whites hates each other but it also showed that they can get along and there was nothing really different about them except for there skin color
- What character do you relate to the most? Why?
i think i relate to the big black dude that always sings because hes always funny and im usually funny so thats why i think i relate to him
Why should we “remember” the Titans?
i think we should remember the titans because they are a good team that disliked each other because of their skin color but then later on they realized that skin color dosent matter and they worked together and helped out each other when thing were bad and won all of their football games

I had recently watched family guy and they made fun of a very serious commercial ad that we talked about in class and i thought it was funny but the ad they were makin fun of was very serious and was trying to make people stop smoking weed and i beleive that family guy not only makes fun of some of the most serious things just so that people would have a good laugh at it and they get views on their tv channel, i think they try to help influence the youth on whats going on now days but when they watch that they may not know what its suppose to mean.

after michael jackson died people have wondered who would take care of the kids and today they announced that michaels jacksons mom would take care of them… i find that rediculous for the media to put such stupid things in there like that because you dont see them putting other non famous people info like them wondering whos going to take care of there children.. if i were making a news article i would of put more usefull information in there that actually helpped others because personally i dont really care whats happens to michael jacksons kids because its not like they are going to be homeless because michael jackson had money.

what does the popularity of social networking sites like myspace and facebook say about us as a society? i think social networks such as myspace and facebook say about society is that lots of youth and adults use the internet too much on a daily basis and that our community deppends on internet and that we would probaly turn into a bad society if we didnt have the resource of the internet

what i think makes the music in that movie an effetive tool is that the lyrics to the songs are actually true and those people were really suffering those punishments that others are giving them because of their race and others who have also experinced that suffering that songs is talking about get inspired and thats what makes music an effective tool because the more people can relate the more effective the song is to them.
Music played the greatest part in the Anti-Aparthied movement because the africans would tune into an illegal radio station and they would play songs that was banned from the radio station because those songs were powerfull to africans and those songs inspired others too stand up for whats right so when the whites would try to make them leave their town they stayed because they believe what those people where doing was wrong and they have the right to stay.

i believe that street cred could be good to have if you have good street cred because if you walk down the street and people know who you are and what you do to others if people mess with you then those people you pass probally wouldnt mess with you because they sort of know you.
