I felt that the film we watched may have been old but at the same time our generation could relate. I personally have never really had any racial issues or believed that I couldn't do anything because of what my race(s) are. I grew up in straight SURBURBIA.....Ive never had to want for anything or felt like I went without....my father is a sucessful bussiness man in our community, along with his brother and my mother just recently started working. So when we were in class and we were discussing moving out of the projects and living in a black community I could understand what they were talking about but I couldn't relate to it.....I've never lived in a black neighborhood anytime I went out and played with the "neighborhood kids" they were white. It wasn't until I transfered to Enloe high school that I really surrounded myself with african americans. When Discussing the black owned bussinesses i believe that many black people don't support there own because they hate to see one another do well....it sounds bad but for the most part its true...... Blacks are always bitter against one an0ther and quick to bring each other down. I enjoyed the panel discussion it was somewhat educational but nothing new.
