The way that the actual Titans, in real life, overcame their racism and won the state title was by reducing prejudices, setting common goals, seeing teemmates and not just group members, and having supportive coaches. Gordon Allport was the psychologist who came up with this system. He said that the teammates need an equal status. Both groups need to hold the same power. The team also needs a goal that neither of the two groups can acheive by themselves. Each side can use their different strengths to accomplish the tast. The players also need to see the other group of players as teammates and not one opposing unit. Being able to personalize with the teammates is very important. The last factor must be possitivity. Any authority or coach present needs to be supportive. Without any supportive authority, the team would crumble.
