America’s roots stem from the diverse ethnicities that have blended together as one nation. While this is a bold statement that infers that our country stands together as one, the film Crash emphasizes on the negative judgments and racial slurs that occur daily throughout the nation. The previous paper written on cross-cultural principles in film emphasized on ethnocentrism, individualism, power distance, and integrated acculturation.

I chose to follow Christine during the film because she captivated me with her confidence and determination yet being so completely vulnerable in every scene. Despite what the society would like to believe, the world has not changed as much as we think.

In addition, statistics also show that 64% of blacks feel they are treated less fairly in the workplace, this is represented in Crash through Cameron, a black director whose job is threatened when he questions his prejudiced producer’s suggestion for his TV show.
