The Help...Must see summer movie...


This is a must see movie.  I really enjoyed it.  Go here to view what it is about.  There is talk about this little gem being Oscar worthy!  I sure do know how to pick them!  I know of most of the cast and it is a story about 1960's Southern America and the turbulent times of Metger Evers, Martin Luther King, segregation between African Americans and Whites and more.  Such a horrible time in our history.  There is humor, sadness and stuff that really pissed me off!  My parents suffered a little discrimination when we came to the United States in the same era.  I'm not comparing myself to the millions of African Americans but as a Hispanic in Mid America we have stories to tell too.  Enjoy!
