1965 was the year when black Americans gradually emerged from the dark gutter. Martin Luther King’s words "I have a dream" lingered in people’s ears. The Beatles’ rock and roll made countless people addicted. Similarly, in an ordinary university, a black-dominated team is slowly being established.
Basketball, as far as the NBA is concerned, has been all over black players, but more than 50 years ago, this was not the case. Now, the rights of black Americans have been established step by step by countless blacks and conscientious whites. At the beginning of the film, with limited funds and strict leadership, Coach Carter was not deterred, looking for black players everywhere. In the beginning, black players didn't believe him. Even after joining the team, they still had many differences with the coach. Everyone didn't know each other before and had their own street basketball style, but in front of the demanding coach Carter, it seemed very absurd. Basketball is a team battle, the most important requirement is cooperation. They have different styles, and they have paid a lot of friction in their running-in.
Black players, originally playing basketball on the streets with nothing to do, were suddenly gathered to play a formal game. They had no rules and met Coach Carter who needed professional skills to play. Naturally, there was a lot of friction. In addition to the coach, their white classmates on the team also have prejudice against them. However, prejudice usually occurs without understanding, and there are still too few people like Tog. The things that everyone carries are different. Some are the trust of his mother, hoping that he will return to school because of this opportunity; some are the opposition of his father, hoping that he will return to work on the farm. The difference in skin color between blacks and whites has brought them different fate. And the famous saying that "all men are created equal" has been circulated in the United States for a long time, it seems too ridiculous at this time. The "Ren Ren" only refers to whites, and blacks are not even qualified to be called "Ren". Prejudice needs to be broken, and getting along requires running-in. Seven black players, white players, after a fierce match, finally became one. They met, misunderstood, and finally fought side by side on the basketball they loved together.
At the end of everything and everything, the victory is naturally won. Is everything behind the victory known?
