Freedom Writers

In class our teacher showed us a movie called Freedom Writers. It is based on the book The Freedom Writer's Diary. It is a true story about students who are all but one in different gangs. They are trying to survive in the lifestyle they are in. They come to school everyday and school is the only place where they can be some what "safe." If was very hard for them to trust their teacher Erin Gruwell, but in the end they never wanted to leave her. She also got them to become a family. She inspired them and made their lives better.
