I'm sure it's not 100% historically accurate but they handle the race issue about as well as they could. Maybe a little too much "white man angry" but still not preachy.

modern day Hollywood and The Message has actually caused me to enjoy older movies that address race issues less. i always loved Remember the Titans, but now when I watch movies from this and previous eras, even though they work racial subplots into them in a fairly believable and not super obnoxious style, my 2024 warped brain is so easily triggered by this stuff that I just get aggravated. i guess partially because i see it now as like the early stages of what i now know Hollywood would become. i dont know, whatever.

that said, in a vacuum, Remember the Titans is a great fricking movie.
