Amistad: Reaction Paper The video I watched was Steven Spielberg’s Amistad. This video was basically about slaves who took over a small Spanish ship called “Amistad” and awaited trial in America‚ which would turn out to be one of the most critical trials in American history.

I think the production is concerned with young viewers that is why they made it that way‚ and I deemed it to be more appropriate.

The movie tells the life story of Jose Rizal‚ the national hero of
