Or the challenge faced by the teacher and great: those who find her hair are marked by her Violence, pela descrença, pela disobedience, pela demotivação and mainly confused hairs raciais.
São young people from broken families, victims of abandonment and disuse. In the classroom, the students naturally divide themselves into groups: the blacks only interact as the blacks, the Latinos walk as the Latinos, the Brancos talk as the Brancos.
Já na first classroom the barnacle or obstacle that she will face. There are some ill dispositions, who ignored their presence, disrespect, aggrieved some other years and faced little case of school supplies.

Besides two obstacles encountered in the classroom, Erin still needs to deal with as a little understanding husband waiting at home and with the director of the school, a conservative senhora who opposes the work purpose.
The curricular changes suggested by the teacher intended to bring two students closer together through music, dialogue and two games. Gruwell wanted to alter the vertical dynamics of the relationship between teacher and student.
Satisfied with the results that she is seeing not day-by-day, Gruwell decides to go there and investigate two young people into life.
A few years, according to the teacher, I have been trusting two students, they began to talk to each other, daily violence and a problematic family that everyone had.
Gruwell inaugurates a project that invites each student to write an ample and free daily. A daily idea and record, from the relationships travadas like friends and with the family, to the pessoais ideologies and the readings that are fazendo, fizeram or gostariam de fazer.
Erin quotes an example from Anne Frank and her diary. A teacher ends up convincing the youngsters that this preconception transcends all kinds of barreira and You can reach people pela cor da pele, pela ethnic origin, pela religião or até same pela classe Social.
A teacher began to lecture on the Second World War and took students to conhecerem or the Holocaust Museum. An interesting curiosity arises at the film dinner where some of you are not staying, not a hotel, for a trip to the Holocaust museum. All the people who are there actually surviving two concentration camps that will participate in the film.

From her more like-minded speeches, Erin sublimates a questão do preconceito e frisa the importance of lidarmos com a herança do pasado that we receive:
A task of education is precisely to present the world as gerações do present, tempting faces aware that a world appears that is or the comum of multiple human gerações. Ao aware of the world that you see, you must understand the importance of your relationship and link with other gerações, passadas e vindouras. Such relationship will be given, first, no sense of preserving or treasure of past gerações, isto é, no sense of a geração do present take or care of trazer to this world its novelty if it implies alteration, até or irreconhecimento, of own world, of collective construction of past.
