Freedom Writers


Freshman English teach Erin Gruwell tries everything to get her troubled students to learn, but then finally realizes she is going to have to think outside the box to make an impact. She decides to have them journal about their real life in Long Beach, CA and in doing so realizes that these kids are lucky to be alive let alone still in school. She becomes passionate about teaching these kids that they can still succeed in life no matter what obstacles they have to face. This is an amazing movie that everyone should watch. Based on a true story it is unbelievable the obstacles that kids face today, and the people that do extraodinary things to make a difference.
