Remember The Titans Essay -- Movies, Film, Coach Herman Boone

In 1971 Coach Herman Boone replaced a popular, successful white coach at T.C. Williams blue School in Alexandria, Virginia, in that communitys effort to finally integrate its schools. The school and community were angrily divided by the federal integration order, and the volatility of the spotlight was heightened by the abrupt demotion of Coach Yoast and Boones promotion to Head Coach. In this movie Coach Boone is on a mission to try to get the white and contraband shams to unite and play together as a team. He wanted the two races to become a team. Around that time, there was a lot of racialism and a lot of schools were segregated, so the players obviously didnt get along with each other at first. A lot changed when Boone replaced Yoast for the head-coaching job for the Titans. The city had a intemperate time accepting the fact that the Titans now had a Black man as head coach. Coach Yoast agreed to be assistant coach and bring over the white players to play with the black pla yers. Now it was time for them to go to camp to see what they were really made of.They were ready for camp and ready to get on the bus. At first the busses were separated by Blacks and Whites, but Coach Boone didnt want that he wanted them to sit together. So one bus had the offensive players besides and the other had defensive players only. He wanted the players to get along, so he sat one black player with one white player on each set of seats and told them that the player they sit with would be their roommate. It still didnt work out when they got to the camp. They still had their differences and wouldnt get along. When practices began they wouldnt have each others back. The white player would miss a block just because the person he was blocking for was Whi... ...al speech about being a perfect team, and that got the team ready for the endorsement half. He said We arent perfect but this team is perfect, because we havent lost a game until now. Coach Yoast said, I dont want the other team to gain other yard. He said that before the second half started. The Titans ended up winning the championship and it was a great success story. In this movie I learned that you can never be quick to judge people based on their polish, or the way they look, because their look doesnt tell you if they are adequate or good people. This movie teaches you great lessons about life and shows that it takes hard work to succeed and to make a good team. Chemistry is one of the spot things. Everyone should get along, and there should be no conflict between teammates. I have also learned that you shouldnt judge someone based on the color of their skin.
