The Great Debaters

Danzel Washington's self-directed and self-acted works, watching these kind of passionate and inspirational works always make me emotional, thankful that I am not completely numb, and glad that I still believe in miracles.
The feeling of being discriminated against may not be deeply felt by me living in a big city, but every foreigner who comes to Shanghai to work hard must feel the same, the innate sense of superiority of Shanghai people, and the quality of life brought by regional economic differences The disparity between Shanghai and Shanghai has caused Shanghai people to always discriminate against foreigners. In fact, no one is wrong. Everyone wants to live a better life and go to a place where "the city makes life better", just like I want to leave now. Living abroad in Shanghai is the same, but if I do go abroad, will I be discriminated against? The answer is yes.
Going a bit far, this film puts the black issue on the platform of debate, and of course, it's based on real events. Whether it is inspirational or storytelling, I personally think this is a good film, and I give it five stars.

    Unexpectedly, I watched "The Great Debater" again on Christmas Eve, and I unconsciously wanted to associate "Let the Bullets Fly" with it... But in comparison, "Let" is really too artistic, with a lot of dark humor. Localization uses the words of the Emperor Taishang: I am really worried for you, too simple, too native. . Violence or civil disobedience? I choose the latter, you should pray

    What is missing, I can't say it myself, the protest of black people is very inspiring, but it can't always move me deeply.

The Great Debaters quotes

  • Melvin B. Tolson: Take the meanest, most restless nigger. Strip him of his clothes in front of the remaining male niggers, female niggers, and nigger infants, tar and feather him, tie each leg to a horse facing an opposite direction, set him on fire, and beat both horses until they tear him apart in front of male, female and nigger infants. Bullwhip and beat the remaining nigger males within an inch of their life. Do not kill them but put the fear of God in them, for they can be useful for future breeding. Anybody know who Willie Lynch was? Anybody? Raise your hand. No one? He was a vicious slave owner in the West Indies. The slave-masters in the colony of Virginia were having trouble controlling their slaves, so they sent for Mr. Lynch to teach them his methods. The word "lynching" came from his last name. His methods were very simple, but they were diabolical. Keep the slave physically strong but psychologically weak and dependent on the slave master. Keep the body, take the mind.

  • Henry Lowe: School's the only place you can read all day. Except prison.
