The Power of Film: Exploring the Impact of Cinema on Social Commentary

Film has long been a powerful medium for social commentary, providing a platform for storytellers to tackle complex issues, spark conversations, and inspire change. From classic films like “To Kill A Mockingbird” to modern blockbusters like “Get Out,” cinema has consistently played a significant role in shaping our understanding of the world and its many social issues.

Films like “Stand and Deliver” (1988), “Mi Familia,” (1995), and “Selena” (1997) have sparked conversations about racial injustice and discrimination amongst Latinos. These films have highlighted the struggles of growing up Latino in America, the importance of identity and culture, and the need for social justice.
