MediaPresentation
My presentation will be on the post “Gangs Of New York”. I will be explaining the racism that was geared toward the Irish immigrants as they arrived into America. I will be using a clip from the movie to help me instill my points about the hatred that these people received and the rebellion they fought for.

Night
First and foremost, it is important to differentiate between the author of Night, Elie Wiesel, and its narrator and protagonist, Eliezer. That a distinction can be made does not mean that Night is a work of fiction. Indeed, except for minor details, what happens to Eliezer is exactly what happened to Wiesel during the Holocaust. But Wiesel alters minor details (for example, Wiesel wounded his knee in the concentration camps, while Eliezer wounds his foot) in order to place some distance, however small, between himself and his protagonist. It is extremely painful for a survivor to remember and write about his or her Holocaust experience; creating a narrator allows Wiesel to distance himself somewhat from the trauma and suffering about which he writes.
Wiesel did not write Night merely to document historical truths about physical events. The memoir is concerned with the emotional truth about the Holocaust, as experienced by individuals. As Eliezer struggles for survival, his most fundamental beliefs—his faith in God, faith in his fellow human beings, and sense of justice in the world—are called into question. He emerges from his experience profoundly changed. The Holocaust shakes his faith in God and the world around him, and he sees the depths of cruelty and selfishness to which any human being—including himself—can sink. Through Eliezer, Wiesel intimately conveys his horrible experiences and his transformation as a prisoner during the Holocaust.
“Night” by Elie Wiesel is a gruesome story, not entirely true or false about one mans accounts in the time he spent in Auschwitz, a concentration camp during the holocaust. The accounts are not exactly what happened; they have been changed to differentiate between Eliezer and Wiesel. The story tells how Eliezer was taken from his home when he was just a boy and sent with his family to the concentration camp. When they arrived their family was split up, the mother and sister were taken away from Eliezer and his father somewhere else. A strange man told Eliezer to tell the guard at the front that he was 12 because if he was to young he would be killed. While there Eliezer saw some of the most horrifying things he could ever imagine. In the morning they would line up and the guards would shoot someone at random in the head. There were pits filled with bodies burning all the time that would produce the constant smell of burning flesh. Food was a great scarcity, not because there wasn’t enough but because they were being tortured and only given enough food to keep them alive. Every day was a guessing game on whether or not you would stay alive. This was all because Eliezer and his family were Jewish. The health conditions inside were atrocious to say the best. He loses his father while incarcerated at the camp. The struggle lasts for what seems like an eternity for Eliezer and many times during his stay he thinks about giving up on religion, he wonders how could God forsake him and others like this. Through it all he keeps his beliefs and makes it through as America joins the fight and frees him. America had been staying out of this battle in hopes that it would work itself out with time and that freedom would come without there involvement. Fortunately America did get involved and help those under attack and it couldn’t have been soon enough for all those suffering. This book relates to Johnson’s book “What It All Has To Do With Us”. Johnson explains that many American whites don’t think about privilege or oppression because they do not really experience it and think that they can’t to anything about what does go on. This is the idea that many American’s had during World War 2. They thought it had nothing to do with them because the war was all the way in Europe; Johnson said the problem was that if they weren’t doing anything to stop the pain and suffering they were almost just as bad as those who were causing it. This is true because granted the people in America did not cause it or support it they were not doing anything to make the Germans stop their massacre of what they thought of as impure races. According to Johnson American’s perpetuated the holocaust for not creating an uproar against it, and before they started helping they were just as bad as the German’s. When I read this book I was disgusted about the way some people can treat others, the fact that American’s did nothing for a long time and allowed this horror to happen was awful. I could not believe that some people were just able to torture people just because someone told them that they were not as important.

Wild Wild West
http://movies.aol.com/movie/wild-wild-west/6300/synopsis
“Wild Wild West”, a movie that is supposed to take place a few years after the civil war ended, taking place from Louisiana to Washington. Jim West a black secret service member teams up with Gordon, also a secret service member at the orders of the President to find the person behind the kidnapping of many of America’s top scientists. The two operatives end up finding out that the kidnapper is Loveless an ex supporter for the South during the civil war and is back to exact his revenge on the country and divide it back to Britain, Mexico and other countries with some area for himself. The fact that the South had to sign a surrender in order to ensure that they would not be killed after many of their battles were lost. Many of the southerners shown that were from the South were still very racist and thought of blacks as second class citizens and tools. At a party blacks were not supposed to be inside since it was a meeting for friends of the South, which were supporters of the Confederacy. The plan to claim America and divide it heads in the desert as the President is christening a railway that will combine the North and South. As foreign dignitaries sit and watch the President is ordered to sign a treaty that gives up the United States to Loveless, he is rescued by his agents and Loveless is defeated. This story relates to Hoard Zinn’s book “A People’s History of the United States”. In chapter 2 Zinn discusses the history of the United States and how slavery was started in America. The fact that slavery became illegal after the civil war made many Southerners angry and disgruntled and gave rise to many rebellions. Though there were no large scale efforts such as in this movie after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, there were many minor attempts, most of which were never even put into action. The racism after the civil war was not ended even though the civil war was won by the North, slavery was still a big part of most peoples lives and as in the movie blacks were still treated wrongly and talked down to. Lynching was a common practice back than and an attempted hanging takes places during the movie, just because a black man touched a white woman breasts. The rules back then were very different depending on your race and a crime that a white would get fined for could get a black lynched. This movie is a good example of the different treatment blacks received just because of the color of their skin. This movie was not supposed to be about race and slavery but it had a lot of ideas and beliefs that would subconsciously show through. There were some innuendoes implied in the movie but not enough time was taken on them to make it a racy film. At first glance the movie is pretty impartial, a white and black agent working together with no real degradation towards the black man that was race related.

Gangs of New York
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0217505/synopsis
“Gangs of New York”, a film directed by Martin Scorsese, is a film based in New York in 1846. The beginning shows Irish immigrants coming into America and William Cutting enlists the help of his fellow “Native Americans” to wage war against the intruders. Many of the British and Dutch citizens with old money who have been citizens for generations make their discontent for these new comers very noticeable. During this battle Bill kills the head of the Irish army Vallon. The movie moves along into 1862 as more Irish immigrants poor into America in hopes of achieving the American dream. Vallon’s son Amsterdam who was lost after his father was killed returns in hopes of exacting his revenge upon his father’s murderer. What the immigrants really arrive in is the middle of the civil war. The immigrants are given uniforms and guns as soon as they get off the boat and are enlisted in the Union Army. Amsterdam finds Bill and becomes very close to him without hi realizing who he is. Another Irish reveals his identity and plot to kill Bill and Vallon is given away. After a faulty attempt to get his revenge Vallon is outcast and forms his own rebellious force against the “Native Americans”. The final battle ends after the riot outbreak from the drafts causes the army to intervene. Vallon gets his revenge and the North wins the war ending the public freedom of the slave trade. Throughout the movie racism is extremely apparent against the Irish, Chinese and Black. This movie relates to Howard Zinn’s book “A People’s History of the United States”, chapter 2. Zinn discusses the history of racism in North America and how it plays a strong part in today’s society and ideals. The fact that Americans were not just racist against people of different colors but of people from anywhere other than the United States or Britain. The movie shows the racism and hatred to anyone that is not a native and the idea that they are not as important or pure as those who were there originally. The odd thing is that the people who were doing the discriminating were not even the first people here, but the Indians. Fortunately for almost all different ethnicities beside Indians and Blacks the oppression has been put to rest, though it took pain suffering and on many accounts needless deaths, the equality many Irish enjoy now is because of the battles their ancestors had to fight. The history of oppression goes much further back than the Irish immigration but this point is a crucial time because it is the start of freedom for at least one group of people and is really the first time a group has ever been released from their oppression. Even women are still oppressed in corporate America; though it’s not as noticeable it is still there. This movie gave a strong image about the pain and suffering that the Irish went through and how they were oppressed just for where they hailed from.

Blood Diamond
http://movies.aol.com/movie/blood-diamond/23021/synopsis?flv=1&ncid=RpWxcJEVXc0000000073&icid=rbox_movie_titles.M
“Blood Diamond” is the story of the pain and suffering in Sierra Leone. The residents have been enslaved all across the country into mining for diamonds. The story emphasizes the struggle of Solomon Vandy, his small fishing village s raided and the residents are either captured or killed. Once captured these poor people are forced to join the rebellion and to dig for diamonds. These diamonds are sold all over the world to mainly rich white people. Danny Archer, a missionary is a diamond smuggler to the highest bidder, this deal happens to be with a white jewelry store owner in Europe. The natives of Africa are enslaved not by whites but mainly blacks. Though blacks are the direct slave owners forcing the labor and causing the pain, the reasons for this slavery is coming from the pressure mainly given by the world powers which are generally whites. The movie paints a vivid picture of how the desire of white ignorant people is continuously pushing the slavery around the world. Even though most are not the actual slave owners, the money that they are offering for these seemingly innocent stones is causing pain to a whole country. The movie sheds light on the idea that slavery is not necessarily a direct institution but can be indirect upon the needs and wants of people half the world away. The story shows uptown stores in large cities displaying many of the diamonds mined throughout Africa and perpetuating the slavery. This movie relates to Johnson’s book “Privilege, Oppression and Difference”. Chapter 2 talks about the way in which people who are not oppressed justify and attempt to ignore those people who are oppressed. Almost all of the people who are accepting these diamonds are of a high social class and do not have to recognize that there is a problem with the way things are actually working, or the people may realize but just decide that others are over reacting. Most Americans in the beginning of the movie are shown not really understanding what the problem is and thinking that yes, some people are in pain but that they just aren’t paid enough. The reality sheds during the end when a reporter that had been following Danny and Solomon through a lot of the movie writes a critical and devastating article. The article describes many of the incidents and injustices that have been happening through the carelessness and greed of many people. Pictures of young black males as young as 8 are shown carrying assault rifles, camps where thousands of people live together in misery after their homes were destroyed by rebels attempting to gain more miners. The pain and suffering of these people is transmitted and the U.N. finally asserts force that actually has a chance of working in hopes of crippling the slavery in Africa. This movie is a eye opener and has a real emotional effect, the fact that slavery is happening just because of the money we are willing to pay for some rocks is mind boggling but understandable. The unfortunate thing is that this is actually a real problem and even though the U.N.’s attempts it is still going on.

American History X Transcript-
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120586/synopsis
“American History X” is the story of a man named Derek Vinyard, a neo nazi white supremacist. The story tells a tale of a young man brought up as a racist by his father in California. During his teenage years is father was murdered by a black drug dealer while trying to put out a fire in the projects. Derek became increasingly resistance to any other races. After his father died Derek started a rise against everyone who he believed to be ruining his country and way of life. Derek was a very smart man and with combining intelligence, exuberance and poor ideas could get a large group of people to follow his every word. Derek takes his hatred to far one night as he kills two young black men for trying to steal his truck. While in prison he finds that any of his previous ideas were wrong and that in the real world the deciding matter is not the color of some ones skin but their character and loyalty. He meets other skinheads while in prison and joins their group, but somewhere along the way he finds that they are not actually true to their ideals and he turns his back on them. A black man that Derek works with ends up becoming close to Derek and helping him through his time alive, also his old principal starts remolding his mind through conversations and books. As Derek is released from prison he meets up with his brother and some old friends and attempts to fix the damage he had caused. His brother ends up paying the ultimate price for hatred in death at the hands of a black highschooler which he had taunted earlier. This movie relates to what has been discussed in class in a couple of ways. One way in particular is what Loewen wrote in chapter 4 of the book “Lies My Teacher Told Me”. Loewen says that any high school students are reading about history through white eyes, through the eyes of the white society throughout history instead of impartially. Derek in the movie was looking at other races as through his father’s eyes and the hateful eyes created by anger. Without realizing that all people are different Derek just believes that all blacks are sub human and do not deserve the respect of whites. He does not just believe that blacks are lower class citizens but any race aside from white protestant; Jews for instance are not equal. In the way in which our history books present information is putting emphasis on the trials and tribulations we as white people were subjected to, but the pain of other races and beliefs is not truly shown. Derek doesn’t seem to understand everything that other races has gone through and their struggles and just sees what he was taught. I believe this movie had an excellent message and helped in the fight against racism.
