The Voices of Many


My voice and audience piece is one of our film talk timed writings. I choose this because, for me, it really speaks to voice due to the subject matter. The movie Lone Star really affected me. I hadn’t thought much about power and how it can end up in the wrong hands so easily and apparently with what looks like the consent of those who are being bullied. When I thought about “voice” it made sense for me to use this assignment. It is all about voice. The voice of the past seeping out from the grave, the voice of the future heard in a decision to ignore the norm and the voice of racism sewn throughout the movie like a blanket smothering the life out of the community as a whole.
