Freedom at Home

A new movie is coming out called Freedom Writers. It is a touching story about an inspirational teacher who believes in a group of students who have been written off by other people in their lives. She asks the students to begin to write journals, and what happens in the midst of this English class changes these students for the rest of their lives.
Cheesy? Inspiring? Regardless, I recommend it. The true story that the movie is based on took place in an English classroom of a neighborhood school of mine, Wilson, when I was in high school. So go out and see a movie that supports the heroes of the Long Beach Unified School District! Not to mention that it is starring 2 time Oscar winning actress, Hillary Swank.
