Transcript: Connect 4 Eden Morris My two connections I have chosen for my Connect four are ...... The 4 texts I chose to support my two connections with evidence are.... DISCRIMINATION B.Rabbit the main character in The Movie 8 Mile Is affected by discrimination in the form of .... RACISM due to the fact that he is a Caucasian male who has a passion for rap music and the art of rapping. Discrimination plays against him due to the fact of the social norms or the stereotypes faced in the year 1995 in Detroit Along with discrimination came difficulties. Like B.Rabbit in 8 Mile.... Beth the main character in the book Once Were Warriors written by Alan Duff also experienced the effects of discrimination throughout her life. But she faces ...... GENDER DISCRIMINATION The gender discrimination Beth experiences in the 1990s in New Zealand is due to the stereotypes society had created for typical women. Beth is also involved in a domestic violence relationship with her "fist happy husband" Jake.This means that if she does not do something he tells her to do or she does something he doesn’t like or approve of Jake will have something to do about it. Beth also faces the difficulties of having to take mental,emotional and of course physical abuse from her husband Jake. This is shown through such quotes as Beth also faces many other difficulties alongside with the gender discrimination she faces such as , Jakes alcoholism and having the responsibility of a mother by looking after and keep her family of herself, Jake, her 5 kids Nig, Boogie, Grace, Polly, Huata and her step son Sonny as healthy and happy as they possibly can be. Note : These pictures are only visual idea purposes for viewers as you do not see these in the book but in the movie. Like B.Rabbit and Beth .... 14 Year old Molly,along side with her 8 year old sister daisy, and her 10 year old cousin Gracie all experience discrimination but the movie The Rabbit Proof Fence directed by Phillip Noyce shows more of a connection with B.Rabbit as The discrimination the 3 girls face is in the form of....... RACISM This is due to fact that they are born of half white and half aboriginal blood the name of this race is Half-caste. The Racial discrimination many Half Caste children including Molly, Daisy and Gracie faced in Western Australia in the 1930s was interpreted by the government due to not only . racial discrimination in the sense of judging their purpose because of their colour but also economic discrimination in the sense of making the aboriginals work as maids for the white people as white people are higher on the economical gradient. is a government official or the “The Chief Protector of The Aboriginals” created a law where he would be able to ‘authorize the removal’ of half-caste boys and girls and they will be taken away to a Re-education Camp in the south to be trained on how to serve their “purpose” of being maids and servants for white families giving them a so called “good” situation for the rest of their life. The purpose of this law was to keep“continuing infiltration of white blood finally stamping out the black colour” Like B.Rabbit, Beth, Molly, Daisy and Gracie experience discrimination throughout their lives So do Aibileen and Minne in the movie The Help directed by Tate Taylor. But Aibileen and Minnies discrimination they faced was like B.Rabbit as it was discrimination in the form of.... RASICM but greatly similar to Molly,Daisy and Gracies experiences.As The racial discrimination they all face due to the stereotypes created in the 1960s in Mississippi U.S. A., Are much similar to the stereotypes created in Western Australia in the 1930's which were the blacks were more lower on the economical gradient then whites and due to this and the overall colour of their skin they weren’t treated equally to whites. They also like Molly, Daisy, and Gracie had their future planned out for them due to the colour of the skin Due to this discrimination the difficulties Aibileen and Minnie faced were being unfairly treated, called names such as ''nigra" and underpaid. Perseverance Through this scene B.Rabbit was able to show me and also the rest viewers across the the world that by following his dreams and persevering and not letting anyone's thoughts and opinions or even societies stereotypes stop him or slow him down he was able to come out on top . Like B.Rabbit ... Beth on top of the gender determination she faces and the difficulties that come along with it Beth still manages to preserver. Beth shows perseverance with the help of the recent suicide of her daughter Grace. You could almost say Grace gave her strength to preserver and stand up to Jake and let him know she knows what happened the night of the raping of his daughter and that she knew he was responsible. Instead of listening to any of the abuse words Jake would say to her before Beth stands there and “she stabbed her trembling finger at Jake" and says Beth’s perseverance and shows improvement in herself
