I watched the Blackkklansman movie and found it fantastic! It is a very interesting movie and, in my opinion, also a really important one. It can make people aware of the violence and reality of racism and help them see it from an other point of view than theirs if they’re not black. I found it super great and well made. It also proves the importance of art and especially of cinema in our society. The movie is known to have a heavy emotional impact on the viewers and to make them to develop very strong empathy and respect towards African American and black people in general. I recommend this movie to everyone.

It's shoking because it's the history and the past of theAmerican americain's people. At the end of the movie, you can see I saw the interview with Spike Lee, the director of the movie. He talks about the "movement" to create around the film. Many people apologizingED for the horrors committed. I think this is normal because this subject was not necessarily known or not in detail. a shocking story, which makes it possible to change mentalities. I will end up with my personal opinion summed up in one sentence : "the racism and the fear of the other is based ON for a lack of knowledge of history."]]> 2021-04-08 08:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1394875568 Valentine Bochert reaction Blackkklansman https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1398981283 Blakkklansman is a movie that fightS against the racism. Lee wanted woul’d like to pay tribute to a real hero. It is the story of a first black police officer in America. He infiltrates the KKK to take down the extremist hate group. With the trailer we can see that this film has humoristics moments to speAk about terrible and important subject, to denoUnce the racism. In my opinion this film is very important because it raiseS awareness and fightS against the KKK and racism. It showS also the power of african american. I recommend you to watch this movie.

Indeed, the fact that it’s a real story in the nineteen seventies allowed me to better understand the context of the time. The Ku Klux Klan was a secret organisation of white people which useD violence against black people after the American Civil War. In the movie, we can see a black detective : Ron Stallworth who infiltrates the KKK to try to destroy this organisation. For me, this movie is a lesson life for all people. I think that, this movie will create a heavy emotional impact to the people who will watch it. I highly recommend it !!! But if you want to KNOW say the end of the movie, you’ll have to WATCH look at it !!!

The president thanks Ruby for her action when she went TO at school because without this act he couldn’t be the president. Then Ruby describeS the painting. It dEpictS her walk to go to school in 1960. She talkS about racism. She sayS that she was aN innocent child but today she understandS that we shouldn't do not juge by the color of the skin. That WAS the lesson she learned.


Ruby Bridge rencontre le presient Obama a la Maison Blanche pour parler du son portrait. Le président la remercie d’avoir fait ce geste militant pour l’époque car ca lui a permit de devenir président. Puis on vois Ruby qui décrit le tableau et le compare au moment qu’elle a vécu. Le tableau dépeind sa marche pour aller à l’école d’intégration en 1960. Ruby parle aussi du racisme. Elle dit que lorsqu’elle était enfant, elle était innocente et ne comprenait pas cette haine mais aujourd’hui elle retient la lecon qu’il ne faut pas juger par la couleur de peau.

This is a film paying homage to them (who ??) because it is based on real facts. I like the fact that they use humor from time to time to deal with such a serious subject because the film can therefore be seen by a larger audience which helps to get their message out to more people. In my opinion, the message of the film is that African Americans even during racial segregation fought against racism and for their rights as well as those of all minorities. I found this film really interesting because it has a strong impact. Journalists who did the reviews said the film was amazing.]]> 2021-04-09 08:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1399061527 Ewan Pruvost BLACKkKLANSMAN reaction https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1399139584 Blackkklansman is an American movie directed by Spike Lee. This is a film to defend racism in America. Spike Lee wanted to pay tribute to a policeman who was the first black policeman in his town, who infiltrated with a colleague in the KKK an extremist and racist group. You can see from the trailer that the director wanted to make a film that was about real things but with funny scenes. I think it's important to talk about this policeman because he helped foil a KKK attack???? and there is no one talked talking about this hero before

Spike Lee brings this story back to our tragic news by showing Trump's speech at the end of the film to remind us that fight is not over. I recommend this film for nostalgic people of the 70s with its touching characters.

Even without watching it. The message spread by spike Lee is powerful, His movie has made people aware of the past situation and the current actual one because the fight against the segregation isn’t ended. We really can see the impact of the cinema to spread messages. In this movie, we can see the effects of the message spread « white people, who loved the film, they were, they were hugging them”, we feel the compassion of white peoples on the cinema. The movie touched them and now it makes them realize about today's actual events. It makes me curious to watch this film.

The spike lee movie named blackkklansman relaesed in 2018 is incredible, especially because the subject is taking???, but all the more so because it's a true story. This detective Ron Stallworth has such courage to infiltrate the kkk. The touches of humour bring a softer side to this story and make it possible to offer this film has all the more audiences???. I recommend this movie 1000 times. It allows you to convey a real message against racism.

I choose this one because this movie is great and interesting to watch as much as IT is denounces racism and sexism. It’s a film made from a real story that nobody knows, the story of three African American woman who worked in the NASA, Katherine Johnson, Marie Jackson and Dorothy Vaughan. The movie mostly shows their struggle to be recognized in the organization even if they are geniuses and how hard and absurd segregation was back in the years 1960. But they don’t lack motivation and ambition and their fight is really motivating to watch! You really should watch it, it’s important and the film is really well made!

The story of Mississippi Burning takes place in on Mississippi in 1964. The plot is that three Americans rights activists disappear. Two FBI agents investigate. At that time the population WAS is racist and the protagonists had to fight against the KKK. The serious subject of this film is very important and it is the first reason I adviSe you to watch this movie. It raises awareness about the violence against black people and showS that we must fight today again, against racist behaviour. This story is inspired by the reality. By watching the movie, you learn more about the history event in Missicippi. There is also an investigation, so if you like the polar, you should watch Missicippi Burning. In adDITION,  the casting of the movie is so amazing. Actors embodYies perfectly the characters. In my oppinion it is a very intEresting movie I adviSe you to watch.

The Green Book movie is based on real facts from 1962 year. It is the story of an Italo-American Franky Vallelonga, nicknamed Tony Lip because he is very talkative, and who is looking for a job after the closing of the nightclub where he worked as a bouncer. Doctor Don Shirley, a well-known and sophisticated black pianist of Jamaican origin, contacts Franky as he is looking for a driver for his tour in the racist southern United States. Franky's problem is that he's rude and racist, but he needs this job and accepts despite having to leave his family. Tony wants to come home for Christmas, fortunately the tour has to end right before. Don Shirley's agents give Tony the "Green Book," which is a book listing the motels for black people. On the road, Franky becomes friend with the pianist and he defends him against racist white men in the South. At the end of the tour, exhausted, Franky can no longer drive, so Don Shirley drives him home for Christmas Eve, and Franky invites him because the pianist would have celebrated Christmas alone.

I really liked this movie because I find it a lesson in life and you shouldn't judge people by their appearance, their skin color or their religion. Green Book won the Oscar for Best Motion Picture in 2019. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it !

It’s an American biographical drama movie directed by Theodore Melfi. I’m sharing with you my opinion about the movie to make you want to watch it because I really appreciate it! It is perfectly made but the best point is the main topic of the film. It fights against segregation in showing the story of an African-American woman endowed high intellectual capacities working for the NASA. The movie shows the real conditions of being an African-American woman at THAT this time. I really advise you to watch it, it’s a touching movie THAT makeS us realize the difficulties that these people WERE FACED WITH have met. Go discover it!

This film is about a political march led by Martin Luther King or African-Americans fighting peacefully for the opportunity to vote freely without discrimination. It was therefore a strong moment in his fight to end racial segregation in the United States because this march led President Jonhson to sign the law on the right to vote in 1965. I advise everyone to watch this film which is a testimony of history strong in emotion and reminds us of the importance of this struggle. This film beautifully represents the courage and will of these women and men, in short a film to watch with pleasure in family so as not to forget the true human values]]> 2021-04-30 18:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1479558506 Bastien Rognard " Malcolm X " https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1480590198 I avise to you  watch Spike Lee's 1992 movie "Malcolm X". I see the trailer :  It tells about the life of Malcolm, a young African-American, who as a young man went to jail and studied history.
He converts to Islam and creates an independent black state in the southern United States. It's an activist but he's the opposite of martin luther king. He resorts to violence. He doesn't want integration with the Cilvil Right Mouvement's . He wants the afro american and the whites to separate.
A movie with action and history, allowing to see the fighting of the afro americans in another way from that of martin luther king

We don't often see a black woman in popular art. this painting WAS is inspired by another by Michelangelo.

She is amazing at painting and manages to “copy” famous artworks while making hers unique and personal, using colors and style. Her work is also really important in our society. It denounces the fact that the majority of famous paintings represent white people and it allows black woman, who are the least represented in art, to identify and to feel like they have a place in our world. The artist was motivated to do this because of her daughter who developed self esteem issues when she noticed her skin color. Harmonia wanted to make her daughter understand that she should accept herself like she is by showing to her that she is beautiful. And that is truly honorable and heart warming. ]]> 2021-05-15 09:57:19 UTC https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1526890954 Clarisse Muet Harmonia Rosales's https://padlet.com/carole_gandon/12/wish/1528223593 I think Harmonia Rosales is a very talented artist. She reproduces works by Michelangelo by changing the colors so that HER his daughter and black children integrate into the school and that all women of color see their beauties reflected in these works.

She is very talented to reimagine classic paintings to include black people. With her art, she defends blacks rights and demonstrates us that a painting can be as beautiful as with white people. In all her creations, white people WERE was replaced by black people, that creates a feeling of strength, a feeling that old art was too racist because black people WERE  was only painted as slaves of whites, she swapPED the roles between blacks ans whites.

The work of Harmonia Rsales is very important to fight against stereotypeS like. With her painting, she fightS against racism, and genders inequalities. We can say that she is a civil right activist. To raise awareness about this subject, she useD the tool of Michelangelo and she replaceD white men with black people. The public recognize the original paignting and the message is that skin colour and gender don’t matter, we are all equal. Her art shows that the painting can have a lot of power civil right movEment !

A period more open-minded than a few years ago, when black skinNED people weren’t accepted at all in the society. I really admire the aim of the painting because it spreadS a positive message of tolerance and equality. Moreover, the artwork was made in taking the original form of the existing one but by modernizing it. So, everyone can understand the message because it’s a famous painting and we all know it. Thanks to it the artist can debunk stereotypes in touching a lot of people and make this message more powerful.
