Think Different

 
     People generally react in a disapproving way with people who are willing to step outside the box of comfortability and normalcy in a way that is considered unconventional or unacceptable. In the movie Glory Road the other people in charge of the basketball team don't like the fact that the Coach is letting black people play. This demonstrates how the Coach thinks different from the others, he doesn't see the color of their skin he sees their skills. It reminds of Rosa Parks who didn't want to give up her seat and was sent to jail because people didn't want blacks to step out of their limits. It was so important for Don Haskins to think different because he changed things. In the movie the coach tells a black guy that he does not see color he sees skill. This means that he didn't care what the person looked like what mattered was how they played. All over the world people get judged but it takes one person to see things different so they can make a change, just like Don Haskins. He thought different than others and made a difference.
