However, even though the U.S. has made an improvement in terms of racial issues, it is not easy to completely change the whole nation’s attitudes towards minorities. In fact, stereotypes and panics about minorities still exist.

    While watching the film there were many moments that struck me as interesting. The first moment that struck me the most was when Jean Reynolds, who is a 51 year old, certified nursing assistant, daughter said she had cancer.

For example when she got a raise then they took some of her benefits away.…
