'The movie “Amistad”\r'

'The photo â€Å"Amistad” is found on a true story. This tells us the story about just about Afri fag slaves who were sold by their own countrymen to maturate weapons and m unrivaledy. During the time of translation to Spain, the crews rebels and kill to the highest degree all(a) their Spanish captors. African slaves took pluck of the crew to return to their homes, entirely they were as sureed by the Statesn troops, who taken them as prisoners steer them to joined kingdoms to determine what they would do with them.\r\nUpon arrival the slaves to America, it was decided that these should go to mash for murder and piracy and keep them in prison. In the first court search contrasting characters claiming the right to these slaves, treating them as property and non as hu populace creations. just an opponent of bondage Mr. Joadson, a ex U. S. President named John Adams, an lawyer at law Mr. Baldwin, and a wealthy man and owner of several businesses and banks named Mr. Tappan, joined forces to informal these slaves.\r\nAlthough it was difficult to get evidence to turn the African slaves because of the language difference, they gathered affluent evidence to make clear that these slaves had been bought illegitimately and they were not Cubans except Africans. With this evidence they won the case. The current president of that time named wagon train Buren changed the enunciate to treat the United States v African Slaves case to re concealing it and specify a varied response, but the response was the same; freedom to the slaves.\r\nOnce again the President of the United States took the case but to the superior court where the ex-President John Adams and Mr. Baldwins attorney at law, had a resounding success with the decision that these Africans were not property, they were mankind beings that had certain rights and could decide where they asked to go. volt, the leader of the African community, thanked strongly the support these char acters give it to him and to his tribe. Finally, Cinque followed in crew to free another(prenominal)(prenominal) slaves who resided in Spain to then return to home.\r\n in spite of appearance the history of the motion picture â€Å"Amistad” we can chaffer different posts because during the plot appears different groups with different ambitions. On the one authorise we pull in the group of the oppressed, referring to African slaves. Their attitude was of condemnableness, anger, and courage. They were sad because they were forkd, separated from their families, suffered humiliation, starvation, beatings, and abuse and all these because of their color. At the same time they felt anger and courage to those sight who abused them without mercy.\r\n only if the biggest attitude that oppressed had been the desire to champion for their freedom and not give up. African Slaves invariably believing in the powers of their ancestors. On the other hand, there argon the oppressors . In this group we can put in concert the Spaniards a languish with the tabby cat Isabel II, President of the United States, and 2 Spanish characters who survived the slaughter on the Amistad board. All of them had a selfish attitude to fightds slaves. They believed they could do with these people what they want because for them the slaves were not human if not a good.\r\nThey do not care what Africans suffered, because according to them, the phantasma color let them to be miserable. The Queen Isabel II at the age of 11 thought that slaves were an essential part for the frugality of her country. President of the United States did not want to sprain African Slaves because he was afraid(predicate) of provoking a civil war and end on bad footing with the free trade balance with Spain. Finally, the 2 Spaniard characters simply believed that they had the right to slaves because they survived from them and helped United State troops by the discovery of these.\r\nIn the movie  "Amistad” there were several conflicts. The question was the snub of slavery which led to another conflicts. During the early 18s, slavery was something illegal in many an(prenominal) a(prenominal) countries. For the U. S. , in the north was not approved while in the mho could be legal. Because slaves were forced to work long hours without a salary, they were very important in elevating the economy of some countries like Spain. With the expend of the time the issue of slavery took more than importance and strength in the decisions of government.\r\n collect to the unleashing of the slaves, there were other social and semipolitical conflict as the Civil War, and the twist of Lombok Slave Fortress. In the history of the movie fifty-fiftytually the anti-slavery group gets the desired bequeath which was to free African slaves and return them to their homes, convey to the wisdom of the ex-President John Adams and the persistence of the attorney at law Baldwin. Today, sl avery is a thing of the past. Thanks to these accrual events that occurred many years ago today we can enjoy complete freedom in the United States of America.\r\nAlthough Africans had to go through many hard generation to regain his freedom, slavery ended in the year of 1865 with the do-gooder of the thirteenth amendment in the constitution. According to Chapter 6 â€Å"Civil Rights” it tells us that since the foundation of America the primary value was equality. Discrimination is a concept that can be outlined as a behavior or attitude with others according to their color, gender, clothing, age, or race. Chapter 6 teaches us that the most discriminated groups in human history are women and barrens.\r\nThe film has a social, political, historical and moral meaning because it leaves a large teaching on the issue of discrimination. It is noteworthy that â€Å"Amistad” is based on current events that left a great(p) wellbeing to the United States. It has social en tailment because it shows that nightclub can be composed of different types of people and we are all a fundamental part of development. Second, it has political significance because we can see that the issue of slavery was always linked to politics, as the kin of slavery and the free trade agreement between the United States and Spain.\r\nFurthermore, slavery has always been treated by the government, who always took the plump decision thinking about the outmatch for the people or for it convenience. â€Å"Amistad” is historic because, thank to anti-slavery people like John Adams, Mr. Baldwin, Mr. Tappan, Mr. Joadson and the great leader and hero of the African tribe called Cinque who had the courage to face great powers as the ninth U. S. President vanguard Buren and confront the vague, shallow, and undefined laws that existed in the strategy of legislation in that time, in our times slavery is condemn.\r\nIn my opinion the great significance of the story of the movie to people of that time is the moral value. Mr. Joadson who was a black man, a slave at some time in his liveliness, and a leading opponent of slavery, was a person who taught us a lot with her ??character because even though he did not innate(p) in Africa, and he was totally American, he venture to support the cause of African slaves and never turned his back on his race. Another example of morality could be the judge who replaced the elderly judge, who despite being young and very inexperienced, do not let the U. S. President told him what was he had to do.\r\nHe always went hand in hand with their values ??and takes the right decision to release these people who had already suffered enough. This movie sure as shooting left a great lesson in me. As stated in the cover of the movie â€Å"Absolutely Unforgettable” I will never forget â€Å"Amistad”. The film taught me that everyone has the right to fighting for freedom. Besides, no one can take your freedom and discr iminate against you by your appearance, color, race, gender, age or anything else. In my case, although we are often called the minority as Hispanics in this country, we have rights like anyone lse and we deserve to be treated as universe and not as an object or property. I have felt discriminated against at some point in my life as many other people, but I know that people judge because we are full of prejudices. The true is that we are still slaves to our own prejudices. Although we are in the XXI century discrimination has not ended, and is the responsibility of each one of us stop judging people by their appearance and accept that if we are all equal in the eyes of perfection we should all be equal in the society.\r\n'
