Fortunately, I saw the introduction of this film from a certain sound, and I became interested, and I finished watching this film during this post-epidemic period. What is interesting is that it is similar to the previous riots in the United States, and the aspects explained in this film are It's still pretty comprehensive, although the ending is a little too ideal.
In fact, after watching this movie, there are a lot of things that I am impressed by. The most emotional thing is the so-called "racial discrimination". Of course, I am not saying that racial discrimination does not exist in the United States, but I just use racial discrimination to describe this. Behaviour is too one-sided. This film describes the conflict points of this contradiction from many aspects. In fact, in my personal opinion, the conflict points of these contradictions lie in two words, bullying.
I believe everyone is familiar with bullying. The bullying I understand is the contempt of the disadvantaged by the dominant group. It is a concept. The physical bullying that occurs is only the physical harm caused by the use of personal advantages after the concept is created. It is just a branch.
Maybe it’s a bit abstract, let me give a few examples, such as school bullying that still exists, in my opinion, there are two kinds, one is physical bullying caused by good health and poor health, and the other is learning good Psychological bullying due to poor learning has a long history. Since the concept of scholarship, there have been these two types of bullying.
For another example, now everyone loves to play games, and there will always be people who are good at it and scold or look down on the bad ones. This is also a form of bullying. In fact, these are all in line with the concept I said. Whether physical or psychological.
Of course, if I digress for a while, I don’t know where I’m going. Back to racism, this is actually a form of bullying. As a Chinese, many people may think that this kind of racism is far away from us, and it’s none of our business. No no, it's very close to us, closer than you think, but the bullying is not limited to race or skin color (although there have been some signs of this recently, but not many), as a Tianjin native, personal perception It means that regional discrimination has replaced racial discrimination. In fact, it means the same thing. As people from Tianjin, in the 1900s, a large number of migrant workers came to Tianjin. Of course, they did not come to Tianjin. A large number of people who have been eliminated by Beijing from Beidrift have been flooded into Tianjin, and a series of social problems have arisen, such as reduced work, poor security, crowded population, and soaring housing prices, all of which have brought great trouble to the locals in Tianjin. , At that time, the Tianjin people around me would be more or less discriminatory towards these migrant workers.
Of course, I just use my own personal example to express that this kind of regional discrimination does exist. Let me give another example. For example, I am a Tianjin native and drove to Langfang. If there is a traffic accident, the Langfang police will to some extent The preference for Langfang vehicles is also a form of regional discrimination in my personal opinion. I give these examples to express that this kind of discrimination or bullying does exist, and it is not about any factors, but only about the severity of the quality.
Returning to the film here, the heroine's father and uncle are relatively obscure expressions. This kind of discrimination does exist, and this problem is also caused by both sides. This also leads to a term called stereotype. This word is in Foreign countries and racial discrimination are inseparable, and most racist remarks are generated by stereotypes. Stereotypes should be familiar to everyone. Everyone has stereotypes, and even as a Chinese, stereotypes about the whole country. I don't need to say more, if you don't have it, I can only say that you are a saint. For foreign countries, it’s like the female protagonist will fry the feathers when she hears fried chicken, that is, fried chicken and black people are stereotypes. In fact, it is also a manifestation of racial inferiority, fearing that others will say it (after saying this, I always feel like I’m alluding to something. ,do not care).
Some of the following are suspected spoilers, let me add a separator
But back to the point of conflict, the black man who shot and killed was indeed a drug dealer. This was a hurdle that could not be bypassed. No matter how miserable his life was, he broke the law, and the police at that time used extreme methods to deal with it, which was also a violation by black people. The uncle of the heroine said this very clearly, but this is about to return to a very interesting point, including this movie, including the case of the police crushing black people in the United States a few days ago, let the whole world know , the police in the United States have a lot of wrongful convictions and even murdered people, but why do the uncle of the heroine and many police officers in reality still have such high vigilance against black people? How many police officers mistakenly kill black people in one year, and how many police officers are killed by criminals in one year? What percentage of blacks are there? I don't have any of these data. Maybe it's a bit racist, but the crime rate is there. Let's just assume that 30% of black people in American prisons have unjust, false and wrongful convictions. I think it's an unlikely proportion. There are still more blacks than whites, which explains something.
Going back to the original point, my personal understanding is that bullying is universal in the world. As long as there are humans, even where there are living things, there will be bullying, but I think it is quality to reduce the level of performance, which requires The efforts of both sides of bullying, for this film, require the joint efforts of blacks and whites, which can be regarded as the topic of this film.
