STEP 3:write down the characters' names and THE different stories in the film.

Jean Cabot (Sandra Bullock) Her character is brutally robbed at gunpoint by two black men. Because of this, she develops a prejudice against all people of color. Many people in the real world go through similar situation.
Graham Waters (Don Cheadle) Throughout the film he makes jokes and smart remarks about black people. He even disrespects his mother by telling her he's having sex with white women. He even goes so far as to label his own brother as a two-bit criminal because society says he is. Graham stands as a warning for all people that perpetuate negative stereotypes against their own.
Cameron Thayer (Terrence Howard) He battles with people inside and outside his racial demographic just to be himself. When he attempts to do the things he wants out of life, external influences quickly push him back into a singular category.
Daniel (Michael Pena)He's a hard worker and the provider for his family, but he has to deal with racist outsiders trying to put him in a box. Jean Cabot accuses him of being a thief and a gangbanger because of his tattoos. Another guy even threatens his life and his daughter's life for similar reasons. All Daniel wants is to provide for his family.
