The American character drama "Judah and the Black Messiah", which was nominated for the best film at the 93rd Academy Awards, is adapted from real life and tells the story of Fred Harp, the leader of the "Black Panther Party" in the 1960s Dayton was framed and shot by the FBI. This is a modern version of the story of the traitor Judas betraying Jesus. Judas betrayed Jesus for 30 silver coins. The Messiah is Christ Jesus, and "Black Messiah" means the black savior. In the film, the male lead "Hampton" and the male lead "O'Neill", both of the Black Panthers, correspond to the "Jesus" and "Judas" in the biblical story. The leader of the Black Panther Party, Fred Hampton, known as the "black savior", was betrayed by a traitor and shot and killed by FBI agents in his home, becoming a martyr of the American black revolution. The Black Panther Party was founded by Huey Newton and Bobby Hill in Oakland, California. They opposed the capitalist US government, formed their own armed forces, transformed black communities, and provided free breakfast, education, and medical care for poor children. The organized movement fights capitalism and realizes socialism through the long-term movement of ordinary people. The Black Panther Party studies socialist thought and particularly favors Mao Zedong Thought. According to Mao Zedong's teaching of "Government from the barrel of a gun", it mobilizes the masses, develops party members, and arms itself. Through reselling "Mao Xuan". Purchase for 20 cents, sell for 1 dollar, and complete the initial capital accumulation by earning the difference and then buying guns. Through non-violent, but not giving up violent means, to gain the qualifications to participate in politics, in order to promote the revolution. The film reproduces the scene of the "highest tide of the American black rebellion" at that time, and reappears this disgraceful American history. There are so many things to reflect on. This kind of organized and programmatic mass movement and struggle will always make the government. Fearful, the ruling class will not tolerate the existence of an organization with clear beliefs and political aspirations and an influential leader in the country, and will definitely spare no effort to slander and suppress or even resort to despicable assassination methods to divide and disintegrate their organization. Look at the black people who are still angry when they encounter injustice, and bulls ramming around like headless flies are destroying them. They go to the streets to smash and smash them for 0 yuan for their Nike and Adidas. Perhaps the U.S. government is happy to see such a situation. Whenever black people encounter injustice, they go to the streets to beat, smash, rob and burn. Through this kind of venting, the black people will gradually calm down over time. The victims have planted the seeds of discrimination and hatred in their hearts, so that the black-and-white gap has never been bridged, and the blacks have never been able to form a movement that truly threatens the regime.
