Freedom writers -plot and opinion-

The other day Miss Alina told us to watch this film " Freedom writers", in my opinion it's an incredible film with lots of values to be shown, and everyone lern that if you really want to make something happen, if you put all your strength it can really happen.
The film is about this:

The teacher Erin Gruwell was new at this school wich integrates gangbangers from different group of Black, Latino and Asian teenagers. At first, this was really difucult for her because this children din't want to be at school and they were fighting all the time but then she understood that they were not delinquents but teenagers fighting "a war of the streets".
She started to teach them about racism and respect, she started to work in two extra part-time jobs so she can buy books for her students and also to make some excursions to museums, like the Museum of tolerance that it's about the holocaust...

Miss G, as they called her, gave them a journal so they can write everything they want. She was surprised when she noticed that all her students leave their journal in the cupboard for her to reading them. All of them were amazing stories about gungs, violence and death; that's why Erin wanted all of them to be published.
As Gruwell begins to listen to them in a way no adult or teacher has ever done, they felt they were taken in by their teacher, as you can see throught the film how Andre, Eva, Ben, Jamal or Marcus started to show a lot of respect to Miss Erin but also to their "different" classmates, but now they can see they weren't so different at all.
They joined each other to collect money prepearing concerts or food so Miep Gries can visit them, and also they joined so her favorite teacher could be with them the following year.


The film is amazing, it really makes you think about the kind of actitudes you have in your life...sometimes you complain about silly and material things while we must be worring about our world, society and trying as Miss Gruwell did to fight against discrimination, violence, war, indifences.....and also fight for all those thing that we want to make real.

I recomend you this film!!!!!!!!!

I hope you like it...............Pau Serrano!
