Racism


Example’s of racism in Pressure are things like at the beginning when we are introduced to Tony we find out he is unemployed and we follow him as he has another job interview, racism is shown because when Tony walks into the office for the interview, the boss is taken back by the fact he is black. Racism is also in this scene because the boss asks tony how long he has been in the country.

Racism is further in the film when they are having a gathering of people and the police burst in, they roughly handle people even a women and throw them into car’s, there is further racism from the police when Tony is being interviewed, you can hear that Tony’s brother is being beaten in the next room this shows he is not getting a fair trail or treated like a human.

Racism plays a massive part in this film as it is about how the black men and women came together
