Freedom Writers

Take a group of restless, inner city students raised in the wrong side of the tracks, a determined teacher with a mission, and a session in Room 203, exploring beyond what is written in textbooks, and you get a movement that starts through writing. "Freedom Writers" is based on the true story of Erin Gruwell (played by Hilary Swank) and a diverse group of racially charged students. Unfortunate moments add up to memories that scar us with little or no explanation as to "why" it had to happen. This film inspires viewers to give hope a chance, even under the pressures of society. The Freedom Writers found an outlet to express their angst and rebellion through the help of their mentor, their teacher. Together, they mentally battled their way to survival. Sometimes the best way is the "write" way. Also starring: Mario.

See, this is the kind of teacher our education system as a whole desperately needs and sadly, lacks! We need many, many more Erin Gruwells, Jaime Escalantes, Ron Clarks etc. In short, we need teachers who do what they do because they actually care about the education, well-being and success of their students!

In school, people call me chins and shout at me to go back china. Everyday to school is a struggle, everywhere I go in school laughers can be heard. I want to befriend with regardless anyone. But, you people are pushing me into hopelessness. I hate my life. I hate you.

@DorvellTStewart this is true but we also need a legislature that allows teachers the freedom to make a difference. In VA we have the SOLs (Standards of Learning) kids are taught to pass the test, teachers are not allowed to deviate from the test. In turn students are unengaged and teachers are are left feeling frustrated.

This and The Pursuit to Happiness are my favorite movies.
