On a Wednesday evening at 9:05pm in Minnesota, an African American couple was driving in their car with a four-year-old daughter in the back seat. After being pulled aside by Joronimo Yanez, a police officer, for a broken tail light, Philando Castile, the driver, stopped his car. Officer Yanez asked Castile for his license and registration. Castile handed the officer his car license and registration, but also told him he has a weapon in his car, for which he was licensed to carry. Officer Yanez immediate words were “Don’t move!” As Castile put his hands up where the officer could clearly see them, officer Yanez shot him repeatedly four times in the arm to the horror of Castile, his girlfriend, and their four-year-old daughter. Completely stupefied by the event, Castile’s girlfriend, Reynolds, took out her phone and began streaming an online video directly to Facebook showing the immediate aftermath of the incident. In the video, Reynolds narrates the accident’s story and exclaimed, “You shot four bullets into him, sir. He was just getting his license and registration, sir. Please don’t tell me he’s dead.” While recording, her four-years-old asked “Mammy, I’m scarred!” Reynolds answered, “It’s okay, I’m right here with you.” Officer Yanez returned and ordered Reynolds on her knees out of the car. Still being recorded, the other officers on the scene asked officer Yanez of his mindset, checking if he’s ok, completing ignoring the true victim, Castile. Castile was left bleeding

I gathered information about what schools he has attended. Wendover middle school is where Drew Mowry went to middle school. His funniest memory was at that middle school. Drewś teacher yelled at him for popping paper. I asked him what he meant by popping paper and he said he folded the paper in half then a quarter piece down and held the corners and whipped it down making a popping sound. Drews least favorite thing about school is waking up early. In the summer he sleeps in till 8 o'clock. Drew's favorite thing about school is that he is now a junior and able to drive to school so he doesn't have to wake up as early to catch the bus. After Drew graduates he wants to get a scholarship to a trade school. He wants to go for hvac. He hasn't decided a school yet. The best activity Drew did this summer was going to the fair. Drew spent a lot of money on rides and games. The roundup was his favorite ride and the t-shirt game was also his favorite. In ten years Drew wants to accomplish his goal of having a job. He says maybe he will be married and living in Montana. Drew has an after school job at Goodwill. His responsibility there is utility and sorting boxes. Hes also is in another afterschool activity.

Zach cared so much about Lily that he wanted to know whether she was leaving or staying. Zach also influenced Lily by setting an example for her to follow her dreams and to never give up in times of struggle.

Dan went to middle school at St. John’s. His teachers were nice but often very strict and his classes were easy. In class they used very little technology but when they did they used typewriters, and filmstrip projectors. Dan played on the school’s soccer team and practiced 2-4 times a week. When he didn’t have practice, he went home and did homework, went to the golf course, and hanged out with his siblings and friends.

The Slide show scene opens with Mr Neville giving a presentation to a women's charity organisation. The room in which they sit is dark and the only light comes from a door ajar. the setting of this scene is totally different to most of the movie. It has no connection to the country Molly, Daisy and Gracie come from. This is the "white society" that Molly and her family fear. The belief that "gathering up" children and "Giving them everything that our culture has to offer" is the moral thing to do. The space is sealed, like a box, keeping the opinions of the people within it under lock and key.
