Amazing Grace — 

Amazing Grace is a must see for anyone that cares about other humans and should move viewers to action. The injustice that William Wilberforce fought was not popular and definitely not economically to the people's best interest. I believe Amazing Grace captured the extreme opposition that Wilberforce withstood and what carried him through it to achieve the abolition of slavery. It also communicated the brutality of this atrocity of the slave trade.

This film should compel you to do something about modern day injustices that are affecting millions of humans every year! One extremely stirring part of the movie was when Wilberforce addressed the woman that later would become his wife. She remember her activity in ending the slave trade, like marching in a parade and wearing a button. Almost like she did her duty and she should get a pat on the back for it. Wilberforce chimes in to say, "But still the slave trade goes on!"

I recommend this movie at the highest possibility rating! Go see it and then educate yourself and do something about modern day attrocities!
