Welcome!

This is the blog of The Renaissance Charter School's senior elective class, "Delving Into Documentaries." This blog was put together in the spring semester. In the fall semester, we watched Food, Inc.; Forks Over Knives; GasLand; and An Inconvenient Truth. Students wrote reflection papers, journal entries, and essays. Instead of these assignments, this semester, students will write on this blog. After each film, they will post a review/critique. Each week, they will post a response to a controversial question related to the film we are currently studying. Visit our Wiki to learn more!

Review # 2 The Times Of Harvey Milk

The Times Of Harvey Milk shows how much Harvey Milk has left a impact on so many peoples lives. He has encouraged many people to just be themselves and to stand up for what they believe in no matter what. He also was a huge role model to the gay community, and wasn't afraid to be himself. I feel like the documentary shows that even though Harvey Milk has passed away, he has inspired so many people till this day. I also feel like the documentary was very well put together because it wasn't just about how great Harvey was but it showed both sides that many people didn't like him and he knew that but yet he still stood up for his right and others as well, because of what he truly believed. This document had a lot of information in it, it taught me a lot of things that I didn't  know about Harvey Milk and for that reason I enjoyed watching it.
