Indoctrination should start from education

Let’s sort out the plot first. At first, his father instilled the theory that blacks are racially harmful. After his father was killed, he became more determined. So he organized white groups and started to provoke racial conflicts. His anger at blacks sent him to prison. I found out that the white people who discriminated against black people are only for profit and thus can sacrifice their beliefs. After a fight, I found that the black brother is funny and helpful, and decided to change his past, let go of hatred and discrimination, be a new person, and educate him well. His own brother, but the ending is that his brother was killed by a black man inexplicably, and then it ended inexplicably? ? ? ? ? ?

The topic of racism is too broad and too deep. One or two simple things can't be covered in one or two hours, and it is not enough to describe the male protagonist's change from angry discrimination to calmly letting go of discrimination. The thought of racism can be It is deeply ingrained, especially on the basis of educating the next generation, from generation to generation, you can only start from education, to save people who have just sprouted this idea and behavior, just like the high school principal in the film. In that way, he did not give up his younger brother, nor did his older brother give up on him. Using his own experiences and actions, he changed his younger brother's thoughts, and in the end, the effect was remarkable.

When you discriminate against black people and are angry with black people for no reason, you are actually hurting yourself. .

If the film can focus on education, the effect will be better, and simple life experience can make people change their past, and build friendship with black people, especially the one that was taken with one stroke. It's a bit nonsense. Although the black guy is really funny, hahahahaha.

American History X quotes

  • Murray: Derek, what are you trying to prove?

  • Reporter: [Rasmussen shows a video of a crying Derek with his mother talking to a reporter after his father's death] Look I know this is tough. But how do you feel right now?

    Derek Vinyard: How do you think I feel? I think it's typical.

    Reporter: Typical how?

    Derek Vinyard: Well, this country is becoming a haven for criminals so what do you expect? You know, decent hard-working Americans like my dad are getting rubbed out by social parasites.

    Reporter: Parasites?

    Derek Vinyard: Blacks, Browns, Yellow whatever.

    Reporter: I don't understand you're saying that you think maybe your father's murder was race related?

    Derek Vinyard: Yeah it's race related! Every problem in this country is race related not just crime. It's like... immigration, AIDS, welfare those are problems in them. The Black community, the Hispanic community, the Asian community, they're not White problems.

    Reporter: Derek, are those really issues that deal with poverty?

    Derek Vinyard: No. You know, no. They're not products of the environment either that's crap. Minorities don't give two shits about this country, they've come here to exploit it, not to embrace it.

    Reporter: What does this...

    Derek Vinyard: I mean millions of white European Americans came here and flourished you know within a generation so what the fuck is the matter with these people going around shooting a... fireman?

    [cries]

    Reporter: What does this have to do with the murder of your father?

    Derek Vinyard: Because my father was murdered doing his job! Putting out a fire in fucking Nigger neighborhood. He shouldn't be giving a shit about. He got shot by a fucking drug dealer who probably still collects a welfare check!
