My opinion

I think this movie quite openly informs about the issue of race in the colleges. The jokes in the movie are all about white and black jokes. I disliked a few parts about the movie especially the huge party that was organized because I never understand why white kids acted like or wore clothes similar to blacks. For me people need to be themselves instead of acting like who they are not. People influence each other but why would the black kids act and behave like the blacks when they mostly hate the black and discriminate against the blacks. All races have different style and character or culture. Even in the movie, when black kids came to the party, they were surprised about the event. They were all shocked because they didn’t feel that the party was going on in an appropriate manner. I am agree with this reaction of the blacks because I even dislike that people give up on their own customs and follow customs of other cultures. Another part in the movie that took my attention was the belief that black people are not racist which was depicted in the conversation that took place between the Dean of the school and Samantha. The Dean told her that her show was racist and she started defend herself by stating that she believed that black people were not racist. However I am agree with the part where she said that black people should have privileges because they had been enslaved for years. That is why what they are doing is for their own rights. Some blacks are quite racist as I have experienced this on my own. During 2008 I and a friend of mine were parking my car and a group of black people and in started harassing us. We didn’t even look at them because we were not racist or we were not thinking anything against the black people. I have a couple black friends and I really like them as friends.
