Film Reflection- Race the Power of an Illusion

The informative scud, Race The Power of an Illusion, Part 2 focused in the main gun point about Race, A category/ an idea. Assigning centre based on how we look, different morals, values, beliefs and intellectual abilities. The social construct is generally created by the society which occurred in the past and still to this day plays a roll in a humans everyday life. This film do me feel overwhelmed by the actions and behaviors because of ones race. It also made very good sum full connections which have stuck in my head throughout the week.I am able to connect this film in couple ways to my life because where I live at home consists of the majority of dark skin and it kills me to hear an individual judge when on the inside everyone is the same. Just like the framework the professor gave in class, if you have a brown egg and a white egg, when they are both cracked and sitting in a bowl, there would be no absolute way to tell the difference. The intimacy which baffles myself is that the film started on by looking at the Declaration and having it pose that men are created equal with freedom and equality.I personally am compound because with all the racial happenings occurring then, how could one call that freedom and equality. Today as we live life, freedom comes up in the dictionary as The function or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without chit or restraint. (dictionary. com) From what I do understand, that is not what it resembled back when the differences of one caused converse. I really enjoyed this film, it left an impact on my life and it was a film that was entertaining with all of the interesting points and comments made.
