Life and Debt (2001)

Excellent Movie!!

[10/10 · 30 March 2002]

I am actually waiting for this movie to become available on VHS. It would tie in perfectly with what I teach in my political economy class.

The movie clearly explains how rich countries can dominate poorer ones. It also causes one to re-think capitalism, competition and the "invisible hand."

Of Civil Wrongs & Rights: The Fred Korematsu Story (2000)

The Fred Korematsu Story (2000) was excellent!!!!

[9/10 · 30 March 2002]

The video added life to my lesson about the Internment of Japanese Americans. My students were excited to learn that a bold and courageous man like Korematsu graduated from a school where their friends and family attended. Because of this, they felt a connection with Korematsu and others who were interned.
