Paper Summary:

This paper describes the disadvantaged position of young African Americans who are discriminated against and live in a reality of restricted options, making growing up and moving beyond their youthful condition an incredible feat. The writer describes the documentary "Hoop Dreams" that provides young African American males with some hope and opportunities through the game of basketball.

From the Paper:

"In the documentary "Hoop Dreams", our society gives a promising hope of social mobility, while maintaining a very difficult barrier to overcome. It is highly encouraged, and rarely done. Basketball was seemingly the way to rise above that barrier by providing the chance to become something greater. For most, the hope was out of reach, while others held onto their dreams."

I am a junior at UMBC in Maryland and its an honor school I currently have a 2 point 5 and all the papers I have written I've gotten an A minus or higher. I have taken all the hard classes so far and hopefully I can do better in the future. My school is rated 83 out of 100 so it is top 25 in academics and I may become an english teacher or math teacher If you buy a paper from me if you go to a decent school will get an A or higher
