When I was young, there was a deaf-mute person in the village. Everyone called him mute. Because his home was right next to the square in the center of the village, he could meet him every time he went to the street to play. From the beginning of memory, every time you go to the street, you will be warned by your parents not to play with the dumb, or he will beat you. Because there are so many admonitions, every time I see the dumb, I will hide away, and the little friends seem to have negotiated, and everyone laughed and ran past him, and they still muttered "dumb, dumb, dumb". . At first he thought everyone was joking with him, playing games like hide-and-seek, he would run after the kids. At that time, the dumb was about twelve or thirteen years old, and we were seven or eight years old. I was scared to cry in the dumb "Uh-huh" sound, it seems that the dumb is really going to beat him.
But the dumb has never beaten the caught kid. He was obviously overwhelmed by the child's tears, so he said louder, "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh andhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh At this time, the adults passing by thought that the dumb was bullying the child, and they pulled the child away in the past, and they said, "I told you not to play with the dumb, you will be beaten!" The
scared child kept crying and crying...
slowly Slowly, the dumb stopped chasing the children who ran in front of him. He just stood there and looked at them by himself. Occasionally, he bought snacks from the canteen to give to children passing by on the street, the parents would smile awkwardly, and then push them away.
Later, dumbs were rarely seen on the street.
When I think of him later, he is standing alone watching the children running around from the back. Later, I heard that he went to work in the city. Later, I heard that his father had lost his way in the snow in the woods one winter night. When people found out the next afternoon, he had become a snowman and never woke up. The mute returned to the village again to accompany the old mother, but he had never seen him in the street.
In the movie "Kill a Mockingbird", neighbor Bu was sick and could not go out during the day, so he was described as a lunatic by the adults and children were forbidden to enter his yard. The little girl and elder brother were both curious and scared, but later they always found some small toys that cloth secretly put in in the tree hole. Later, when the little girl and elder brother were attacked by bad guys, cloth appeared in time and saved the siblings. .
Bu is the little girl and brother's robin. The father of the lawyer in the film said, "You can't kill a robin casually, because they are innocent." However, just because Boo was sick, they could only move at night. Just because Tom was black, they were quarantined by the people in the town. In the end, the white girl even framed Tom and raped herself, and Tom died because of it.
In the circle of healthy people, unhealthy people are abnormal. In white circles, people of color are abnormal. In a society that values reproduction, it is not normal for a person not to marry. Whether you are normal or not depends on whether you are the same as most people in your circle! Not only the appearance is the same, but also the similarity of values.
Such prejudice is the source of tragedy, and the narrow and simplistic standard of judgment has driven so many "robins" to ruin. "Killing a robin is a crime." How many people became murderers in the process.
