thinking differently

  People generally act shocked or scared even upset.They act this way because they are scared to step out side the box and do for them selves.The people who act differently then others are the real people who are not scared to be them they do not want to be like everyone else,they want to stand out and be who they are and not who people want them to be.In the movie ''Glory Road''  the coach Don Haskins was one of those people who wanted to step outside the box and he did.He wanted to have the most black people  on his team and he did seven blacks was the most ever on a basketball team.He also was the first to have an all black starting five in a National Championship game.He went way outside of the box people hated him they called him a Nigger lover,trashed his room and players rooms and they also beat his players up when they got the chance to.In the film Don Haskins told one of his black recruits ''I don't see color,I see quick and skill.''He knew what he was getting his self into and he did not care one bit all he wanted to do was play basketball and win doing it.This reminds me of a movie called '' Remember the Titans '' In this film there was a whit coach for the football team for years and years but one day the school decided hire a black coach.When one parent found out about this he took his son off the football team because he didn't want him to be coached by a black football coach.

  It was so important for Don Haskins to think different because he knew that the talent he had before he recruited the black kids were not going to cut it.He knew that he need some type of athleticism to help the team strive for a National Championship.It was also important for him to think different because without him doing so he would have never made history and be one of the greats his basketball team would have never won the Championship without the black people he added to his team.In the film Don Haskins says '' Im starting five black players Two subs '' For the first time in college basketball history he will have an all black starting five in the National Championship and win the game. This reminds me of a movie when they had a first black football coach ever and they went all the way to States and won for the first time in the teams history.
