Grace Lee Grace Lee!
There are many reasons why people do the things they do when it comes to exploring the world around them and the people they are surrounded by. This Grace Lee project was the end result of a woman who was confident enough about herself that she could go out and see who else is out there and how life has effected them. She chose the name Grace Lee as it was her own and found out many positive and negative things. First, she found out that the majority of them were Asian, which didn't surprise her, and that there were so many stereotypes about them because of their race, examples being that they are smart, quiet, and nice. She found out that because of all these stereotypes that many of them happened to fit in, many of them were overlooked as unique people. She went out to find all these Graces to prove that many f them are unique and different, but at the same time she found out that many of them are the same. Through their similarities she could relate to them, but I think she was more interested in their differences and how they shaped each woman. There were a couple that stood out of the crowd, but to her dismay (I think she might've been a little disheartened) most of them were very similar to each other. Either way, she learned that stereotypes can be true to some extent, but not all the time. Everybody is different in either big ways or little ways and its those differences that set us apart in big groups of similarities. I think she was happy with her results as they were close to what she expected. This was a very interesting movie and it was a nice change compared to the one before it when all we heard about was one woman's search. This Grace Lee focused less on herself and more on everyone else, and I think that made a difference when it comes to the public and classroom response.
