Do The Right Thing

Spike Lee's film, Do The Right Thing, raises an important issue that is still relevant today: racism. I liked the way the film was done because it showed how everyone can be racist at some point in their life. Not just one group towards another, its every group towards each other. In my opinion, the film offers a fair and balanced view of the issue that isn't aimed to blame any one ethnic group. It seems to me that to have absolutely no position on racism is ignorant, but to take any stance, no matter how good your intentions may be, you are most likely putting yourself at odds with a different opinion, whether you mean to or not. The film points out that racism can't just be ignored, but in order to address it, we have to come to terms with the reality which is still very uneasy.
