Rating: 4 stars
Summary: role reversal
Review: white man's burden was surely a different movie that would be expected of john travolta. one thing that is really significant about this movie is the amount of racism. however, the racism is directed towards white people and their struggle in the black man's world. john travolta's character is challenged with the obstacle of trying to make it in a job that is ran by blacks and how he tries to relate his misfortune to them. this movie really shows that racism will get nowhere in a world where we all have to live and work together. for people that have not seen this movie, it's very discouraging to see travolta's character take the path he did and to endure so much turmoil. how he went about things was actually very frustrating and unfortunate. i was also very surprised to see such a line up of cast members and the wonderful job each and everyone of them did.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: White mans Burden is a film that addresses afro-caucasion relations in the United States. The ... roles of these respective races are reversed for the film. This forces an individual from either of these groups to view the racial positions from both perspectives. By doing this hopefully the viewer will be able to gain a better understanding of how societal conditions ... can lead to behavioral extremes.
The message contained within this movie can be applicable to racial tensions between any groups. The underlying message is that it is society that breeds behavior, not skin color.
