The Progression of American Society; the downfall of Public Education

Rating: Null/10 (26 February 2005)

The movie, "Coach Carter", shows the truth of what we must as a people strive for. Through Samuel L. Jackson's outstanding portrayal of Coach Ken Carter we see that some people out there still see public education as a chance to EDUCATE, not just to play a game.
As American Society progresses, our love of sports and recreation has intensified, and in turn the standards at which we are educated and expected to perform has become lax.
Coach Carter, as a basketball coach, led his team to an amazing victory on the Basketball court. Coach Carter, as a man, led his to team to an outstanding life, and gave them hope. This movie truly shows and inspires people to see the true point of education. It's to learn so your life can always be great, and always contain substance. This movie is a testament to both Education and Sports, but notice, Education comes FIRST!
