2. at dinner Jermey kept mentioning to him about bone structure and if hes ever been in a combat sport
3. Chris hit Georgina with the car and didn't know what to do because that's how his mom died.

there was a lot of arguments happening between the 3 and questioning going on whether or not he should do something about his actions.

Rose, Tyler, Josh, Elliott]]> 2023-01-26 18:48:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2458061865 Room 1 https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2458071053 Georgina and Walter have flashbacks from different reasons for example Georgina had flashbacks when she talked to Chris and Walter had flashbacks when he was exposed to flashlight. It also happened to Logan. It was the first time that director made us realize what was the problem with the black people in the movie.

At the party, when people were talking to Chris and Rose people were directly mentioning Chris without actually saying his name or directly telling that it was him that they were talking about.

After Rose “couldn’t find” the keys, Roses dad starts talking about how fire is a reflection of life’s mortality and asks Chris what his purpose is. After this scene the movie becomes more eventful and interesting as the family starts to show their true colors.

One similarity is that Everyone caused drastic change in the movie or in the plot

]]> 2023-01-26 18:55:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2458072593 Get Out Reading - Poll https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2475227838 Paragraph 5 states, "In contrast to professional cameras, which are understood as artistic tools used to make recognizable and commodifiable art for the marketplace, cell phones have become everyday objects and, more importantly, political tools to capture state-sanctioned violence against African American men, women, and children." This quote is important because it shows that Chris's cell phone camera flash had a deeper, symbolic meaning in the movie by spreading awareness of racial violence towards African Americans in our every day lives. Phones can spread information extremely fast through social media platforms, which professional cameras cannot.

In one pivotal scene, Chris tries to take a photo of the oddly dressed Logan to send to his friend, who’s worried for Chris’s safety. But when the flash goes off it triggers a bizarre transformation: Logan’s expression turns to fear” 

“In the opening frame, we see a quiet, sleeping, suburban street, a geography zoned exclusively for single-family homes. Functioning streetlights emit a soft yellow glow, lawns are manicured, and all cars are parked in driveways. A deep silence blankets this geography with only a gentle chirping of crickets in the distance.” ]]> 2023-02-09 15:56:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2475233056 Why ‘Get Out’, a Movie About Anti-Black Racism, Had an Asian Character- jay, Luke, cj, grace https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2475233701 “Get Out” tackles the terrifying experiences of being Black in racist white America, and the inclusion of the Asian man reveals that, while Asians may not play a lead role in white supremacy, our willingness to participate in anti-blackness makes us a supporting character.

]]> 2023-02-09 15:56:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2475233701 https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2492630180 1) In other words,  McNally emphasizes that the family specifically gets black people to better the lives of other whites. She connects this with being used as a tool, they put their whiteness behind a “mask” to try to hide that they are good people. The family just assumes that because of their white background, makes them superior to which they take over black lives.


2) Ms. Willis goes on about a very compelling thought on what would have happened if she was alive through all of this: “There is an old African proverb that one should never forget: Black women be knowing.”


3) This helped change my perspective into seeing it from a different perspective. By being white, I wouldn’t be able to understand how Chris was feeling the whole time he was at Rose’s house. This is true because there are stereotypes about black men late at night, and that stereotype is danger. But here Poll talks about how this movie is quite the opposite, especially when you take setting into consideration. Chris was in a rich white suburban neighborhood, where there are also stereotypically rich white racist people. Looking at it from Poll’s and Chris’s perspectives, I can see why Chris and Rod were spooked out about the whole situation.

Summary: Logan attempts to cry out to Chris to help and save him while he can.]]> 2023-02-23 16:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2492799601 Peer Review https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2493007211 Lauro explains the similarities between Nat Turner and the slave revolt and rebellion in the South, and Get Out characters like Chris, Walter and Georgina and their battles to escape control from the Armitages. 

Lauro observes, "Standing over Jeremy’s bleeding body, Chris removes the cotton from his ears, and at that precise moment, the whispered lyrics of the Swahili song from the opening credit sequence strike up" This shows how Chris was able to escape Jeremy using cotton, which is a symbol which represents the slavery in which African Americans faced. Then the use of the Swahili song is there to also show what African Americans went through in the past. 

Group 3 - Tyler K]]> 2023-02-23 18:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2493007211 Get Out reading https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2493014181 Ms. Willis argues that the role of black women in Get Out is important because they each play a significant role in the movie's different themes, and all connect to each other in one way or another.

Ms. Willis asserts, “Georgina is every black woman that has lived up to this stereotype while simultaneously being cut down by it. She is every black woman who has fought or is fighting despite being constantly pushed down.”

Plainly put, the black women in Get Out should be in the thought of more people. Georgina was the only character who could seemingly go back to her old consciousness without having a flash of light shown to her face. She was struggling to escape the mindset she was in, and was shut down every time, and was trying to push through the struggle she was in.]]> 2023-02-23 18:59:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ssulliva5/10apjfq8zfphkmsc/wish/2493014181
