Daily Log Blog #2

Today in English class we started our new film, Get Out by director Jordan Peel. We started off class today with Mr.Rivers reminding us that November 7th is the last day for Bee Real blogs. After we complete the blogs to make sure that we post it on the blog wall also in class. Next we started to talk about what we are supposed to do everyday we are watching the film. In each day of watching the film we need one to two sentences talking about micro aggression that is present in the film. Before we watched the film Mr.Rivers stopped and asked us what empathy meant. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. We then continued where we left off from the day before when a black man is walking down the street and is then abducted by a man who is in a white car playing rabbit music. The movie goes on and then we meet the main character Chris Washington and also his girlfriend Rose Armitage. During the film we find out that they have been together for 5 months and Chris has not meant the parents yet. His girlfriend proposes the idea that they should go for the weekend so that Chris can meet her parents to which he thinks is a bad idea. When they finally arrive Chris feels how her family is having two black people that work for them. Chris also meets her brother who is not the greatest guy to talk to especially while drunk at dinner. Chris feels the micro aggression towards himself from his girlfriends family and says i told you so to her in the sense that he knew this would happen from the beginning. That is what we learned in English class today.
