What We Think

Remember the Titans is relatively non-woke by today’s standards, focusing on character and teamwork over didactic messaging. It touches identity and prejudice due to its historical context but doesn’t come off as heavy-handed or agenda-driven.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While the film certainly explores themes of racial integration, it generally allows character development and personal growth to anchor the story. The identity of characters is relevant due to the historical context, rather than feeling forced or preachy. However, at times the narrative can veer into didactic territory.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film promotes unity and reconciliation rather than undermining core cultural values. There’s respect for family, hard work, and even authority. Masculinity isn’t mocked, but depicted through camaraderie and leadership. It feels like a mostly traditional sports film with a message about overcoming prejudice.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, especially initial resistance to integration, are portrayed with some nuance. Those with prejudices aren’t all cartoon villains. The story offers growth and conflict rather than simple ideological uniformity, making for a more balanced perspective than modern fare.
