African American play(1811)

The play was really good the history of this play touch bases allot with sociology. It was about the 1811 slave revolt,for the people who don't know(that's when the slaves over threw their masters in a tragic attempt to make it to New Orleans from Haiti. One of the ways they connected ,it was said that African Americans are nothing more than ass backwards mules,and can not function with out the help of his master.Well  this is the same way in education saying that they know nothing but with the help of a book and teacher you can become a functioning human as if you weren't already. It wasn't until the slaves started thinking critically about the things the can use around them to gain freedom is when they got what they wanted. Which is the same this black students can do,but with the school system taking the place of the white master,constantly believe they cannot achieve,which is the same for Latinos.Also showed that dividing the bright lights from the dim ones has been done trough out history simpley mines the slaves who where smart got into the busniess and brought their freedom while the less bright stayed to work. Which is the same in school the bright kids who are disapline tend to go on and make alot of money after grade school and collages while the others are left behind. (Ace)
