Discrimination has been under the microscope for generations due to its huge impact on a community. Differentiating btw people on the basis of ethnic, color, religion, etc, is what causes pressure on people to fight back and coerce others to RESPECT those differences, or else chaos would result. There are surely many ways people have used to solve this problem, but most of which where based on "let's take revenge n get the shit out of them", which has magnified the impact on others who would back up and build a "hi-bye" relation with other groups.

But with the awarness of the importance of "discrimination", groups have seeked to solve it in a proper manner that would result in a positive impact on others and lead them to pervade the word of how differences can add up as whole. One of such solutions was Hollywood, movie maker. The newest movie, "FlightPlan" talks about a hijacker who at the beggining was thought to be the group of Arabs whom where accused for hiding a 6 years old kid. But by the end of the movie, a twist takes place and you are shocked to know that the hijacker is a US military who's resposible of the safety of the airplane. So now you go like O_o "how can that be, how can Hollywood have this big twist and be on the Arabs side?!"

Well Generalization has costed people their lives making assumption of a group based on the action of a small number that, as believed by the group, aren't accepted as a whole. So whenever something happens and so accidently an Arab/Muslim is found to be in the scene, then the SMART solution is, "Terrorist". The fingers are always pointed at us first even before any investigation, just because of old hatred towards this group, or as I said before, generalization. But why doesn't this generalization also takes into consideration the other ethnics, or groups whom have been in the same situation. One is the bombing threat that took place in the State by an American himself. Why didn't everyone point fingers to American when anything else has happened? why is it only Arabs/Muslims that they would ALWAYS n i mean ALWAYS suspect first?

Well good thing that people are realizing their mistakes and trying to fix some through whatever resources they have. The movie has shown this twist in which all suspected the Arabs but it turned to be an American. The movie did well in sending a message to the world and I am happy to see such. But....

Still discrimination hasn't fully been solved. The end of the movie, the Pilot appologizes for Jodie Foster for not believing her but she never appologizes for accusing them for kidnapping her daughter, even when he was nice enough to give her the purse. Ok some may say that there was a silent "thank you" between them, but it would have been nice if she did say it.

But overall the movie did a good job in kind of solving the "discrimination, generalization" problem.

.... thoughts from a diary

"Eve is cursed with her emotions and sensitivity, with her care and ultimate love. She is the weakest creature especially to Adam. No matter how hard she tries to put those red limitation lines, she ends up removing them for the sake of Adam. No matter how much she’s been involved in relations that have stabbed her hardly in the back, she backs for a while, but when she feels a nice Adam is close by, she opens up slowly but at the end opens up fully thinking that he’s the right man for her. Unfortunately, the story just goes on and Adam, as usual enjoys the little fun he has by being needed and then simply let go of Eve for her to enclose herself in that old way she has always been in.

It just pains her so much being hurt every time. She hates the ignorance, the insensitivity she is treated with and worse, the game Adam plays on her which leaves a deep wound in the heart, so deep it simply never heals. Eve is a loving caring source that is willing to give even more than she gets, but as long as she is treated fairly. She hates to be part of a game that is meant to play with feelings cause she is a believer that you can’t build a relation if one doesn’t even have a belief that it would work. One takes relation carelessly built on a sexuality rather than confidence, care, trust, respect, and etc.

It all matters but relation is not to be tested by sexuality but rather by the support and care one feels. Love is not a word that is felt by words, as much as by deeds. But with Eve, she simply falls for every word Adam says. Maybe she is aware of her carelessness , but what she really seeks is a relation that would not hurt her and ask for many more than what she is able to give. She doesn’t seek to have one that is based on a game or a sexual need, but one that is meant to build up with emotions, true one."

A topic that I always think of with all the emotional treatment women are undergoing around the world, where relationships are based on sex rather than respect and understanding.
