David and I just watched the movie "Glory Road", the story of the 1966 Texas Western basketball team- the first team in NCAA history to start five black players. It was an incredible story. As someone who was born in Utah, raised in Oregon, and now living in Forsyth County, Georgia, I haven't had many opportunities to interact with people of different races. This movie helped me to understand the black point of view a little better and brought up some very relevant issues that blacks and whites deal with even today. I highly recommend it!

One of the reasons I was excited to leave Utah was to experience different cultures, religions and races...little did I know...Forsyth County has fewer people of color than Utah does! :) I really want to see that movie!
