4 points, no nationality or race is born kind. In a single-race country in Asia, class differences are manifested, but this class difference just overlaps racial differences in the United States. From this documentary, we can only take some 50. The example of the movie 80 years ago illustrates its own embarrassment. Racial discrimination is not a mainstream acute problem in American society now. Putting this documentary with a biased view out - let's not gossip about other people's civilized society in our jungle society. [Score range 4-5 points]

James Baldwin: I can't be a pessimist, because I'm alive. To be a pessimist means you have agreed that human life is an academic matter, so I'm forced to be an optimist. I am forced to believe that we can survive whatever we must survive.
James Baldwin: But the Negro in this country... the future of the Negro in this country... is precisely as bright or as dark as the future of the country. It is entirely up to the American people and not representatives. It is entirely up to the American people whether or not they are going to face and deal with and embrace the stranger they have maligned so long.

James Baldwin: Someone once said to me that the people in general cannot bear very much reality. He meant by this that they prefer fantasy to a truthful recreation of their experience. People have quite enough reality to bear, by simply getting through their lives, raising their children, dealing with the eternal conundrums of birth, taxes, and death.
