Color of Fear reflection

Racism is where groups of ethnic people do not like another group for being colored, or their religion, gender, etc. Racism is based on color and people the way people judge one other person by their heritage. When you have a white person and a black person competing for a job or trying to go to a good college who has more advantage? The white person does. It puts other people at a disadvantage and puts white people at an advantage.

In the beginning of the video, "Color of Fear" in the first thirty seconds I wrote that the movie would be about how black people are in a white society because it looked like the black man was feared where he was, like when Bigger Thomas, from the book the Native Son, he was feared for robbing a white person store than robbing a black man. When Bigger had his gun and his knife it made him feel that he is strong and needs it to walk in a white world. In the video David is stubborn because he does not want to be blamed for being the wrong person. David does not see what color people are and think like what Victor has experienced. Victor makes reference that colored people do not eat, think, and act the same way as a white person does. This is because white people do not see what happens in a black person's point of view and it is harsh for a colored man.
