Truth

Should we censor the truth? Make every child blind and believe the ideas of other people? Not to let children see with their own eyes, and make their own perspective? Where would our variety of opinionated views come from? Would you want the future generations to have the same opinions? Do you want us to be brain washed?

Hope

This is a photo of the film Cinderella Man, it makes me feel a sense of hope in hard times, as you see in the film his oldest son is afraid of being sent away to extend family. Cause their parents can' t take care of them. But this is reassuring that everything will be fine. http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/universal_pictures/cinderella_man/russell_crowe/cinderella2.jpg

The hopeless and inferior

I think the US should be involved in every sort of genocide, stopping it from happening or while its occurring, and staying till that nation has a resolution. If the US has the resources, and the opportunity to help another people, then we should be obliged to help. That also goes for every other nation, but of course in reality. Nothing will be done effectively enough to stop genocide from happening.

Fighting Hunger

In the 1930's the Great Depression began, the film Cinderella Man shows us the lifestyle and struggles through a boxers perspective of James J. Braddock and his family.

Steady income- James fighting his way up to become champ from 1926-1929 before the depression. http://www.jamesjbraddock.com/record/

Depression- Boxing is still a very popular sport during the depression, it was like going to the movies, affordable entertainment. But Braddock enters a fight while not adjusted to the changes of rations, performing unfavorably and causing a tie.

Proving his worthiness- The heads of the boxing commerce decied to not allow james to fight anymore, cause of the embarrassment he caused. But he talks his way back into new hope.

Rise from the ashes- James continues his fighting, giving the public a hope from the depression, as if he was fighting for the people.
