Skin color doesn't mean destiny

To earn respect, a shoe shiner in Texas moves from a shack to a villa, and a decorator in Los Angeles goes from actor to boss. Possess wealth, but can't change skin color; sit on the top spot, but can't have real power. In order to really wipe off the smeared handwriting on the black restaurant, in order to completely take off the uniform of the cleaner that grows on the body, there is always someone willing to give up their wealth and sue the Declaration of Independence in court. Respect is an expensive thing, and it is worth rushing off a cliff for it. Commissioner Nick and Falcon join hands to invest. Based on real events, it tells how two black people break through the shackles and even invest in investment banks in the context of racial discrimination in the 1950s and 1960s. The story is well-paced and heart-wrenching. But the sense of joking is too heavy, it feels like watching the story of the failure of the partnership between the two bosses of SHIELD and the X-Men, and it is only at the end that the equality of skin color can be considered.
