The Help

Fun movie about the relationship between the black maids and their white employers during the 1960s.  It does a good job showing what it was like during that time without placing too much blame.  It maybe a little too much feel-good and too little call to action.  Service people are still taken for granted too much even if they are not just African American, but Mexican-American, Asian-American, and refugees.

Recommendation: Watch it and then think of who you take for granted, learn their names and at least ask them how they are doing each time you see them.
