1. Review Slide 3: Angie Thomas says she felt like she could have a voice and change and the world" after reading Harry Potter. What book, film, or music makes you feel like you can make a
positive change? Who or what empowers you to achieve? Explain in at least 4 sentences using
details and examples

The movie that made me feel that positive change was not only possible but something anyone can achieve was Philadelphia (1993), with Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. This movie was one of the first times I saw homosexuality, homophobia, and the AIDS crisis portrayed in mass media. In it, Hanks plays the character of a gay lawyer who is fired from his law firm because they find out that he has AIDS. Not only did his character win the case in the movie, showing that discrimination can be defeated, but Hanks and the movie itself won many awards and got the issue of AIDS and discrimination to become a known problem that could be prevented. This movie makes me think that not only our actions, but also the messages we send through mass media can have an immense effect on the world, and that means we can all help make the world better.
