Accelerated Rhetoric
A Higher Learning
College campuses are some of the most diverse places in the nation. Some students come from very diverse backgrounds, whereas others come from not very racially diverse places; this tends to cause a bit of a conflict as seen in the movie Higher Learning. ... Parillo, and Shelby Steele all have different outlooks and different views on the reasons people behave the way they do; these different views correlate with the behaviors of 3 characters in Higher Learning, Malik, Kristen, and Fudge. ... (Higher Learning) And indeed, they did stick together when Billy called Monet a “Black b****”, Malik and all his friends went to Billy’s fraternity to beat him up. ... (Higher Learning)
Next, Waters describes Kristen as ignorant; but this ignorance isn’t completely her fault, Kristen came from spending time with her certain clique which happened to be a group of White girls. ... ” (Higher Learning)
At the start of the movie, Kristen is in an elevator and Malik walks in; Kristen looks at him and clutches her purse much tighter, fearing that he might mug her. ...
In brief, Waters, Parillo, and Steele all have their different takes on the characters of Higher Learning; but all views have one thing in common, discrimination is something people of all colors encounter and the characters of Higher Learning all have in some way grown because of social interactions with different races.
