50th Anniversary of The March on Washington

When I look back on the march on Washington, I see this huge and  monumental event that changed so much in America in the 1960's. In reality however, there are so many problems that still exist with minority groups in America. During the election my dad watched a lot of coverage on fox news, which personally I find to be the most disgusting news network of them all, and one of the men on there, a white man, said he was shocked that minorities had voted more this time then the last election. I mean really? This guy never figured that maybe minorities want to see themselves represented in the government, or that at the simplest level, more people in minorities reached voting age. A lot of the statistics show that white people think that a lot more has improved in the way of race relations than what actually has. It has gotten better, a lot better, but it's still not good. It's just not as well broadcast as it should be. Discrimination still happens every where, to all minorities, but unless it's about a minority hurting a white person it doesn't really count. Trayvon Martin's case is a great example. Zimmerman killed him. You can't refute that he killed a kid much younger and smaller than he was. However, Zimmerman didn't even get involuntary manslaughter. Martin's death didn't even matter enough to be called an accident. His death didn't even count as the death of a person. So it's kind of hard to say when faced with that, that race relations are SO much better than they were in the 60's.

I really like watching horrible movies for the sake of watching a horrible movie. My personal favorite terrible movie is always Birdemic: Shock and Terror. However, Disney sequels are always pretty terrible. Hunchback of Notre Dame 2, is the worst movie ever. The knockoff of the movie, is better than the sequel. Treevenge is my favorite bad short film, it's so weird and very oddly done. Apparently there's a new birdemic out now, almost as horrible (if not more so) than the first.
