An Excellent Class Resource June 25, 2007
30 out of 30 found this review helpful
I use this particular film within my RE classes, or when I teach Year 8 history classes on the history of black peoples in the UK. I myself am from the States, and the story of MLK and his fight for true freedom for oppressed minorities is something I grew up learning from the age of 4. Yet, here in the UK, we do not really know the intricate details of how the American story of racism developed, prospered, flourished, and became a way of life, as it was our Wilberforce from Hull who ended this sort of outward treatment in the mainland some 150+ years ago.
This video helps to put into perspective just what injustices black men, women, and children had to put up with and in all fairness, intelligently pick apart piece by piece to gain the freedoms that they enjoy today, but had been guaranteed for generations. It also helps us in the UK to understand our own social problems in light of the Brixton Riots and Bradford Riots, giving us a spirit of empathy with oppression as well as overt and covert forces working to keep genuine and decent people from what our society sees as "right".
