Tuskegee Airmen
From watching the Tuskegee Airmen movie I learned that you can accomplish a lot if you set your mind to and believe in yourself. i Also learned that you shouldn't give up on your dream no matter what happen, I say this because in the movie although Laurence Fishbourne had a dream to be a pilot and fight for all American citizens even though he watched most of his colleagues die. Another lesson I learned was that you shouldn't let negative thoughts or people brig you down because in the movie lots of men were brought down by racism and ended up committing suicide or leaving. I really enjoyed watching the movie and I think you will too. Watching this movie help teach me lots of lessons that would help you in life.
