AMERICAN BLACKOUT

I feel that the people give a political documentary its power, the people felt wronged and they seek the truth.Some people film the situation and events to try and uncover the truth behind political people and their hidden agenda.Also the majority of people never really get to see small indy flicks or documentaries so i feel that the internet along with youtube, netflix and facebook make it a whole lot easier for people like myself who work and go to school to view great relevant media and social and real life content.
American Blackout was a very informational documentary that talks about how certain minority groups mostlt African Americans were discriminated on did not get to vote, some were not even on probation with clean records ans still were not allowed to vote due to so called errors, go figure.I feel that they should have held a re-election due to all of the controversy.I also feel that if they had a re-election George Bush may have not been voted President.It is sad to see modern day racism in the form of voting,I feel that everyone has the right to vote.Just look what happened recently,Barak Obama became the president of the United States Of America, due to better voting systems and huge public demand for a change,we are still in a crisis, but it seems that the people wanted a new leader to try and guide the people in a new positive uplifting direction.I personally feel that youtube,twitter,facebook and myspace play a huge part in the influence of todays people both young and old exspecialy the youth they thrive on social networks and cell phones,netflix helped me to see many great documentaries and small indy films of which i may have never got to see due to my hectic schedule. i really have enjoyed this class..thanks, Daniel Frias Jr, here are some clips of American youths sharing their opinions on political culture.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr_gK4LyDeQhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrGIBTdPC2A  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GcA1eEx4Mg
