I think that after seeing movie it is easy to assume that slavery is no more. However, slavery is still happening in society, we as a culture are just not exposed to it. It took a life time of dedication for Wilberforce to change the mindset of his society. His dedication and hardships proved how much it takes to breakdown prejudices. It took one man to take a stand but it took a community to make the difference.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04916417608272913883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147373376866432115.post-82447781275318490632007-08-16T14:22:00.000+10:002007-08-16T14:22:00.000+10:00Thanks very much for this - Zoe - you've got me ho...Thanks very much for this - Zoe - you've got me hooked, I've watched the trailer and I'm reading into it :). It is entirely relevant. It is only in very recent human history and in some societies where racial discrimination has been (arguably) and possibly only temporarily overcome. It remains a huge issue and challenge and I'm looking forward to what can be learnt through the window this film opens into a significant historical achievement. And thanks for all the links, including the education guide.<BR/><BR/>Technical note: The link to the trailer was too slow for me - I had more success with this <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Cv5P9H9qU" REL="nofollow">youtube version</A>.James Neillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01303497574192570961noreply@blogger.com
