Paraphrase Practice

Excerpt from an article (http://cwmemory.com/2009/10/23/the-54th-massachusetts-regiment-in-myth-memory-and-history-2/)"The movie does a very good job of addressing the discrimination faced by the 54th Massachusetts as well as their heroic performance at Battery Wagner in July 1863. Like all historical movies Glory gets certain things right and certain things wrong. One of the themes that the movie captures is the slow progress that Col. Robert G. Shaw experienced in learning to more closely empathize with his men as well as the gradual changes that took place among white Union soldiers as they questioned their own racial outlook in response to the battlefield prowess of black regiments like the 54th."

My Paraphrase -  The film succeeds in showing the prejudice treatment that the 54th Massachusetts experienced, and their courageous acts at Battle Wagner in July 1863. Glory portrays some true facts as well as some incorrect information, just like every historical movie. A main topic of the motion picture is the long process that Col. Robert G Shaw went through while trying to figure out how to relate to his men and also the changes within the white Union soldiers while they questioned their racial opinions because of the capabilities of the dark divisions like the 54th.
