Reflection On The Movie 13th

The movie 13th was a very interesting movie. I learned a lot while watching the film, Such as the history of a mass plan of incarceration against blacks and latinos. I also learned about how the history of law has been continuously used to hold minorities down. I learned a lot more about how the USA used their power to hold back black movements like the Black Panthers. The movie really opened my eyes to the history of america.

I was not aware of the history of the criminal justice system and how it targets blacks and minorities. Such as the three strike rule that was put in place after laws was set to target drug activity in black neighborhoods. With the law, criminals would be set to do mandatory sentences which would tear many families
