Abuse vs. Uniqueness

The use of the road in "Angela" was a quest to find peace from her abuse by meeting other Angelas and telling her story, hearing there stories and making generalizations about a heterosexual Caucassion and African American women. She found peace in sharing her story. Grace Lee felt that most Grace Lee's in the world were unimpressionable and forgettable. She used her road to set out on a quest to find out why Grace Lee has been stereotyped this way, and also find the impressionable Grace Lee's of the world. This road differed from Angela's because it contained a specific race (Korean Americans) it was also slighty gendered because of the lesbian activist Grace Lee mentioned in the film. I think that the Grace Lee project was a better film and contains some great insightful thoughts. Not only is Grace Lee considered same, but a lot of us in the world are considered same. We have to search deep and throughly to find and appriciate uniqueness within eachother.
