Crash

I really enjoyed watching Crash in class on Tuesday. I really believe in everyone being as multicultural as possible and seeing how racist the world can be was really quite shocking. I would say that I'm a fairly free of prejudice. I know sometimes I have misconceptions of others but I don't think I've ever let that rule how I see and treat others. My personal philosophy is to assume the best in people unless something happens to show me otherwise. Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I don't like to be judged myself so I try my best not to judge others too quickly. However I know I'm not perfect at it.

Hi Emily - Glad you liked watching Crash - it certainly does give one a lot to think about. I've been thinking about it a lot, too, particularly because I think it forces me query my own prejudices, biases, makes me wonder what might be hidden below the surface. We think we know who we are . . . but do we really know ourselves?
