18 Wounds Reflection Assignment By Jennifer Duffy Using the Movies: Forrest Gump And Sound and Fury

18 Wounds in the Films Forrest Gump Sound and Fury Wound Example #1 Intellectual disability #2 Simple-minded #3 Given menial jobs #4 Bullied and overlooked #5 Trivium #6 Labeled as “Stupid” Wound Example #1 Deaf #2 They cannot hear #4 Difficult to find work, Encouraged to get cochlear implants in order to be normal #5 Seen with pity #6 Some social stigma #11 Cannot always attend hearing events

Movie Portrayal: Forrest Gump The movie was a fairly realistic representation of how people with intellectual disabilities are treated in our society. Forrest Gump was: Ignored Avoided Overlooked Bullied Called Names Overall, Forrest Gump created many positive situations, but there were very few people around him who appreciated what he was able to do. Movie Portrayal: Forrest Gump

Movie Portrayal: Sound and Fury Sound and Fury is definitely a realistic representation since it is a documentary. The family experienced: Pressure to get a cochlear implant Discrimination Conflict within their own family and community The movie also accurately represented the beliefs of the deaf community including the beliefs that: Deafness is not a disability Cochlear implants take away the importance of deaf culture Movie Portrayal: Sound and Fury

Thoughts about 18 Wounds BEFORE FILMS AFTER FILMS It is very sad that the church is failing to meet the needs of this population It is so sad that many Christians advocate abortions for babies who will have disabilities Our culture has come so far, but this population is still being marginalized in many ways Made me realize how very broken our world and culture really are These films helped me to see that just because someone might be affected by these wounds, it does not mean that they cannot live productive lives I need to be very careful how I think about people with disabilities The 18 wounds have obvious emotional affects and more subtle emotional affects

Source of Truth My Source of Truth: The Bible The Bible says: Luke 14: 12-13 “He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind.” Christians need to reach out and include all individuals, including those with disabilities in everything that we do.
