American History X


            
             Imagine this, you are lying in your bed trying to fall asleep when you hear a sound as if a window just got shattered, you look out your window to see a black man breaking into your brother's car. Running into your brother's room, you interrupt him while he is having sex with his girlfriend, and explain what is happening. He draws his gun and proceeds out the front door gunning down the look out guy and wounding the man that was breaking into his car. The perpetrators get away car screams down the street at the same time as your brother is firing at it. The wounded black man laying on the ground in agony is pulled to the curb, your brother then tells him to put his mouth on the curb. He then proceeds to stomp his head in killing him almost instantly. The question of why a person would do this to another person all comes down to HATE of all other races then him self, the poor white American that has been screwed by the parasites of the human race (blacks, Mexicans, Asians). American History X is a powerful movie dealing with the boundaries of racism, moral ethics, and humanistic principles.
             American History X is a must see, it depicts the social unrest between races. The film gives the viewer a picture of what actually happens between different races. Two brothers of a white family are drawn into a fight between races that plot them against anyone not of their same skin color. Derek (Edward Norton) the leader of the neo Nazi gang and older of the two was recruited by an older manipulative white power follower. Derek was used as a puppet to lead the gang against the dark skin enemies. Derek's younger brother Danny (Edward Furlong) seems to want to be just like his brother Derek, although he does not have the leadership qualities of how to arouse a crowd like Derek. Derek seems to be fueled by hate from the death of his father. His father was killed by a drug dealer as he was trying to fight a fire in a crack house in a black neighbor hood.
