Abstract or Introduction
The film, Remember the Titans, released in 2000, is set in 1971, a time where racial integration was just beginning, and the tension between whites and blacks was high. The film opens to a scene in which blacks and whites are mobbing each other with only a small line of policemen standing in their way. This chaos is all pictured before unity, through football, is introduced to the town. Through the introduction of football, to the newly integrated school, many whites, and blacks, are able to unite in order to achieve a common goal. By analyzing the actions of the community that take place in the beginning of the season, the middle of the season, and the end of the season, it is obvious that there is a relationship between the decrease in racial tension and an increase in team spirit and pride.
