A Movie That Openly Challenges Racism | The Help

 We all have a favorite movie and for some it maybe plural and comes in the form of movies. There are so many genres when it comes to movies and our interest varies from time to time and changes after each phase we have completed and will focus on the next phase that will highly influence you and a corresponding movie that favors you as well.

One of my favorite movie is 'The Help' it was basically a book published by the author Kathryn Stockett in 2009. Which finally turned into a major motion picture after two years prior to the release of the book which is by 2011. The plot synopsis goes like : African American women are made to work as maids that do all the household chores for rich white people in Mississippi, United States. Which in turn is favored by a keen author who is willing to portray their stories and make it in to a book so that the world can know about how much they have faced through out their lives with all the absurd mockery and constant hurting. Which in the end turns favorable and their stories are finally published under the pseudo name so that no one can find out that it was written by a white woman. The African American people were finally granted their freedom by this one revolution, they turned into rebels and started going against people. Mutating and brain washing the other souls that were endorsed in their work. These are all events all the countries once witnessed. Slavery was eventually abolished when Martin Luther King Jr marched all the way to demand freedom. Apartheid was torn down when Nelson Mandela was granted his freedom after suffering several years in jail. India too had given up on un-touchability when B.R Ambedkar decided to start a revolt because India was known for their social and cultural reforms and that's how India gave up on these uncanny acts and lower caste people were finally granted their freedom from all the toiling acts.These movies create a similar ambience and situation on how people used to behave and act in the twentieth century. Sometimes, it requires certain people to create a rebellion and finally abolish these inhumane acts. The movie won several awards such as  the academy award and the golden globes for the best female in supporting roles.

Sometimes, we need a good movie to bring about a change in us such as our mental and emotional intellects and as they say 'our next behavior depends on the next movie we see'. We need a good movie that will uplift your mind and soul and by far my favorite one is 'The Help'.
