There are two things that impressed me with this movie.
The first one is the beginning of the movie. The group of black slaves who were rescued by the uncle dentist... Uncle dentist said that they now have two choices. One option is to continue to go south to be slaves, and the other option is to go north and save themselves. .
He put this option into the hands of the slaves... They hesitated at first, and before long they took the shotgun and walked towards the previously extremely arrogant slave owner...
"Boom!"
With a shot, they decided that they were not certain, but they were undoubtedly free.
Another place runs through most of the film.
I found that white slave owners are quite hateful, but there are many blacks among their minions...In our more hypocritical terms, they are compatriots of the oppressed.
Compatriots picking up the whip to drive and enslave the compatriots, it is actually not difficult. Don't imagine how much entanglement and ideological struggle they can have in their hearts.
This video reminds me of a passage from a certain sage. I can’t remember the original words. The general idea is as follows. It consists of several questions:
Should one liberate oneself?
Should one liberate others?
Can people not liberate themselves, but only liberate others?
Can one not liberate others but only oneself?
...
I think everyone has his own answer in his heart.
