workshop#6 Global -community awareness

The Global -Community awarness workshop is the first workshop of our enrichment workshop passports. The purpose of this workshop is to let students learn more about their society and care about it. The workshop I attended was called “My Beautiful Laudrette”.It is a 1985 movie. The night before I attended the workshop, I did a research on this movie. It is a story happened between two men named Omar and Johnny. Omar is a Pakistanian and Johnny is white.Back in the time, race was a big issue in the society. Johnny helped Omar with his laundrette business. They were good friends.But the problem was : other people in the society discriminate Asian. Johnny was beaten beause he supported the Asian Community. After reading the summary , I was looking forward to see the movie. I want to know the difference between 1980’s and now.I want to know how the society has changed in the racial issue.Unfortunately, the movie was cancelled. If I had seen the movie,I would understand more about the society.
