something we can do

In such a period and in such a large social environment, black people had to give way when they saw white people, and buses could only sit in the back row... The respected status of white people and the despicable situation of black people were all taken for granted, and a person wanted to fight The power of the power is too weak, it is difficult for us to understand whether it is a compromise or whatever. In fact, what impressed me the most was the moment when Vivian returned to the institute. Facing those injustices, I often thought in my heart to leave quickly! But what about after Vivian leaves? Life didn't get better, and those deep-rooted racism still exists! And Vivian's heart has always belonged to that medical research laboratory, and he is willing to return to that environment again for his inner pursuit! Even though he still gets unfair treatment from time to time, he knows that's what he really wants to do. The pace of the times will not stop for one person, nor will it accelerate for one person, time still moves forward. Fortunately, in his lifetime, his ability was finally recognized, and many people have pursued their lives without seeing the dawn, and some of the dawn can only shine on the epitaph. Each of us is a small link, some things seem to have no results, but we have to do, only when all the links are connected together can ultimately lead to a result. You don't have to aim for a satisfying result in everything you do, but stick to your heart and keep it as clear as ever. Time will give you a satisfactory answer.
