Racial tensions come to face when a group of white students throw an African American themed party wearing black face and using watermelons, fake guns as props. The concept is not all that farfetched. Around the time this movie was being released, a fraternity at Arizona State University threw a party in honor of MLK day, in which the white party goers wore basketball jerseys, flashed gang signs, and drank from cups made of watermelons.

I chose to write about the sorority I am in and how groupthink occurs within our chapter. In any friend group, organization, or fraternity/sorority, I believe that groupthink does happen and it can either be bad or good.
