A Union of Human Beings

I was most intrigued by Denzel Washington's character because of his secret cause. He wanted to create a union of workers with intigrated members no matter what race or status they were. His passion was deep that he continued his protest even with dangerous consequences. A student from CSULA once told me that if I were to read Martin L. King's Speeches, I would find that he was also trying to raise collective conscience among the lower and working classes. I like to image that such an idea is possible.

  1. looks to me as if MLK was trying to change the consciousness of everyone. look at the video on the HomePage of sorenkerk.com - it's labelled MLK. Topic: the power of love.

  2. "One of the Greatest qualities of a leader is the dynamic interest to pursue a goal or an objective. this enthusiasm is impressive as well as contagious and can create momentum" - Carl Mays
    i believe this quote is a perfect example of the role that Denzel Washington character played in the movie. A great leader that knew how to deliver, value, hope, and victory to his team.

  3. I believe the charcter played by Denzel was a little unstructured and undiscplined. because he had something to hide. Even though those times were hard to express your feelings publicly, he should have forwarded his attention elsewhere
