Although there have been films made before this one, such as Remember the Titans, and others made later, such as 12 Years a Slave that deal with race, this film is unique in the way it addresses the topic. The focus is not on a specific race that is discriminated against, it talks about many races and shows that even minorities can have prejudices towards each other. This is significant considering that when the film was released it was mostly rude and socially unacceptable for people to say racist things to people's faces. Racism still existed but it shouldn't have been publicized. Nowadays, with all the events that have happened in recent years such as police brutality, the influx of immigrants from Latin countries and terrorist groups like ISIS, race is a topic that is brought up more and more in the lives of everyday. . Films like Crash show that racism is something that should be discussed if it ever truly goes away
