The reason for the matter is just because I want to know more about feminism and feel that as a woman, I should have at least this knowledge. So after looking up and thinking on the Internet, I chose "Feminist Angels" to watch. At the beginning, I didn't have any expectations for it, I was going to see it as a popular science, but after the whole film was over, it was already in tears.
When we now enjoy the concept of "equality between men and women" for granted; when our women can never be forbidden to work and seek knowledge; when our women have the right to decide their lives; when we are free to end what we don’t When we like the marriage; when we can get out of the house, come to society and be respected, do you know. Prior to this, people believed that women: low intelligence, can only bring children at home, fragile, and that women’s participation in politics would bring chaos to society. Women and men have equal intellectual rights, but with unequal education and social division of labor. Girls must devote themselves to the family and housework. From one family to another, boys can receive education and leave the family and decide on their own. In the future, what is even more resenting is that the marriage law at that time, whether it is a federal law or a state law, can only stop marriage if there is evidence of adultery, abandonment of the family by the husband, or extreme cruel abuse of the wife.
Did you know that the end of all this is the result of a group of women fighting for life with blood and tears? It is because some people realize it. , Stood up, everything afterwards seemed so taken for granted.
In 1908, Alice Paul met her lifelong confidant and comrade Lucy Byrne, and began her lifelong career-the feminist movement. The film starts here. I was able to do a good job of watching the documentary with a lot of knowledge and tediousness, but it surprised me at the beginning. I watched it very focused and comfortable at the same time. The two-hour and three-minute movie is also the whole process of my mental journey. It was easy at first, and I was very excited to watch women stand up and speak out for their rights. I admired and envied them like warriors like this. But then there are various tribulations: the speakers on the same front have died of illness and lost the hearts of the people, the opposition to women’s suffrage across the country, the mostly contemptuous and resisting attitudes of men, the president’s inaction and disapproval... this is not one. Fairy tales, this is a real challenge. No one promises you that you will realize this plan and that you will succeed. In front of them, everything is unknown. But they still insisted, Alice Paul, the leader still lobbied for speeches and raised the white flag in front of the White House. This is bravery. It's not talking in the mouth and thinking in the heart, but still going under the great pressure. In 1917, under continuous provocation by Germany, the United States finally announced its entry into the First World War. This became a tremendous suppression of the feminist movement. The behavior of raising the white flag in front of the US White House still in a state of war angered the masses, and the government finally arrested them in the name of "obstructing traffic." There was a fragment in the middle of Lucy's hand being handcuffed to the iron cage, and the rest of the people also lifted their hands and hung them from the prison door. Since then, the inner touch has turned into tears until the end of the play.
"You asked me to explain my reasons. I was just thinking about what needs to be explained. The answer should be very clear. Explore your heart, I swear to you, my heart is exactly the same.
You want to live by living. The industry has a place, and so do I. You want to have some means of self-expression and some ways to satisfy personal ambitions, and so do I. You want the government to hear its own voice, and so do I. Is there anything I need to explain?"
She is a top student at Smallswall College and a PhD from the University of Pennsylvania. She looks weak and petite, but she has a sharp eye for seeing things and her character is tough and uncompromising. Whether she talks with her suitors, in front of reporters, or in front of friends, she maintains a clear mind and expresses her clear point of view every word, and she has a leading demeanor. It can be described as vigorous and resolute. She is great, but not only because she is smart and wise. It's because she sees feminism as her lifelong sport and is completely dedicated to it. Lucy asked her in the film, are you tired? You are false to say that you are not tired. She didn't speak, and went straight back to her room. Ben—the man who understood her to support her in pursuing her was too good, she also left. She was taking a bath, and Lucy asked her again, don’t you want to get married? She said it was not fair. I put all my emotions into this fight, and I don't save a little bit, unless I don't want to win. When you are alone, you can choose whatever you want. But you lose that right when someone loves you. I will not give anything until we have everything. I can not do it. "Alice Paul, dedicated her life to the women's movement, has always been active, and even participated in the anti-Vietnam War demonstration at the age of eighty. She died in 1977 at the age of 92 and established the Alice Paul Fund to fund women’s struggles. Equal career. Unmarried for life.” This is the reason for her greatness, even abandoning marriage and family and love.
"You asked me to explain my reasons. I was just thinking about what needs to be explained. The answer should be very clear. Explore your heart, I swear to you, my heart is exactly the same.
You want to live by living. The industry has a place in the industry, and so do I. You want to have some means of self-expression and some ways to satisfy personal ambitions, and so do I. You want the government to hear its own voice, and so do I. Is there anything I need to explain? "
This is Ellie When Si was sent to the psychiatric department of the prison hospital after protesting on a hunger strike in prison, what she said to the doctor, who was already weak, was the passage that moved me the most. "We don't need a martyr." She was forcibly fed, even three times a day, bleeding from her nose and mouth, vomiting constantly, and still did not give in. It is really shocking.
After seven months of imprisonment, they were released.
On August 26, 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution came into effect.
Women have the right to vote.
The councillor asked his wife to come back, and the daughters miss her very much. She said, "I did this for my daughter."
Women are finally liberated and have the right to vote, but does this mean that all women must use their rights? Alice said, I don't have expectations for women. They are like men, with good and bad aspects. But what I value is that they also have this right. In my opinion, it is the same. Not everyone is required to use their rights, nor is it unwilling to participate in elections. A woman who understands politics is not a good woman. But the important thing is that you already have this right, it just depends on whether you need it or not. In the same way, not all women should be independent in this "equality of men and women" society, work hard to buy a house to pay off their mortgage, and not rely on others but on themselves. Rather, if you are willing to be independent and be a "strong woman", there should be no malice from this society. After all, everyone is different. Some people also want to marry a good husband and teach their sons in the inner husband. The family is their stage. Between the two, there should be no right or wrong, and what suits everyone is different. But no matter which lifestyle you choose, it should be respected and understood.
Similarly, you can not use this right (Chinese women have the right to vote since the founding of New China), but you cannot be indifferent to what these women do.
Thinking of them distributing flyers on the street, begging those women to fight for their rights, begging them to pick up their due status. It sounds ridiculous. Things concern you, but you don't care at all. But looking at today, how many people care about their rights. People have finished their day of life, work, and study, and when they have free time, who doesn't want to relax, watch some comedies, dramas, scan the circle of friends, read a few paragraphs to relax. Similarly, is the political revolution movement important, or is it important to eat? In "Dear Andre", Andre asked the taxi driver why he didn't take part in the parade. He said that there is no use doing these parades, it is better to make more money (probably this means...). People have been alive, and they seem to be living well and fulfilling and busy, but in fact, they seem to be tired from work and pay rises. Behind the drama, there are a group of blinded people walking in the world lostly, without seeing themselves clearly. He didn't see his environment clearly. Speaking of which is still limited, I only see what I have in my hands, but I cannot see what I mean in a group of people. Hope we can all be wiser.
So, is the world's contempt for women really completely gone? Actually it is not. But what Alice and the others do is still extremely influential and disruptive. How should girls live? Just like part of the themes in the "July and Ansheng" movie, is it to be independent and unruly like the early July, or should I "see my life at a glance" like July? This... seems to be about life, so I won't discuss so much here.
In the end, let’s talk a little off topic. I found out today that when we were young, my parents took us to watch a lot of excellent movies, but I didn’t understand them. "War Horse" only sees the feelings between people and horses, "Pearl Harbor" is viewed as a romance film, "The Great Debate" only thinks that wow, the wonderful debate is so interesting, "Troy" and "King Arthur" are pure Appreciate the story and the handsome guys and beauties...
Ah, when I was young, the pictures were really broken in Tucson
