While raising suspicion among family and neighbors, he finds acceptance from his old friend, Patricia (Kerry Washington, “Ray,” “Lift”), and her daughter.

positive change
I think the best way to bring about positive change in our society is through communication. We all have to learn to listen as well as we talk. We also have to respect what others go through as well as what we go through.
Change
Another way to bring about positive change without bloodshed is through public humiliation.
Education
Educate everyone and let them develop good understanding of right from wrong.
Night Catches Us
Positive change starts with early education—and not necessarily an academic memorizing of facts—but education with common sense practices—caring for the environment—respecting all living creatures—and understanding the consequences of impulsive bad behavior. If the world is destroyed, nobody wins.
Peace
I dont understand why people have to fight and kill someone just to prove a point
i wish that they would just talk to them or something i cant stand all the killing thats been going on
The best way is just to be positive and dont do anything except smile and live your life

I think by volunteering in many different capacities. I do it often and it really brings people together from all walks of life.
