I you happen to read this soon Ms.Hegeman, I'd like to make a suggestion. I feel like our class watching "Boyz N The Hood", was not really a lesson, We've seen it so many times before. I feel like since I've seen "Higher Learner" only twice, that we should watch it in class. It tackles racism in America after the civil rights movement in the late 80's and 90's. It shows two sides to the story German decent and African-American (black). Both sides of "White" people and "Black" people and how we portray each other. I feel like it'll give a more vivid understanding on everyone else point of view in America. If you have trouble, The rapper Ice-Cube is in the movie. That can be a Google search for you. I hope you take my suggestion into consideration. -Happy Holidays, see you soon.
