we can make it

God decide humans got a little too much hubris and so made their lives miserable by giving everybody different languages.

It's all about a movie. A movie rose above because of the oscar, but gives a profound influence upon me far from that. The movie called crash. The movie told not merely the racial discrimination.
After I watched crash. I was really overwhelmed by the implication the director gave me. I can hardly say a word, just like the moment I finished the Prof Huntington's work the clash of civilization.
Both of them focus attention on the problem produced from the coming-together among different peoples. It is an irreconcilable dilemma. We can't treat the fewer group badly, cause it is a discrimination; and we can't treat them nicer, cause it is also called discrimination.
A young policeman with great justice killed a young black for he feared them deep inside, although he pitied their living situation from deep inside, too. It is no use that they both admired the same idol. Custom gives their gestures different meanings. They can 't communicate to each other from their birth.
But the hatred does not exist from the birth. Another policeman humiliated a black actress for releasing his depression got from a black nurse who refused to cure his father's pain. We hate the other people because they grab away our opportunities, and deprive of our necessities . We take for granted that it is reasonable and acceptable if it is our people gain a chance, because he works harder or smarter. If it is a different one, we affirm he is an evil. The racial discrimination offers us an access to explode our anger. The policeman, fortunately, saved the actress he hurt at first in a traffic accident. Thank god, let us average people catch a glimpse of light that shines down to us from a world lies beyond.
Just like the old Persian man was saved by an Arabian little girl. The angel, he realized later, provide him a second chance to live a peaceful life. In the new life, there will be no revenge in.
We can hardly overcome the irreconsilable difference between peoples, and probably the globalization is making things worse. Faced with the problem that deny us to solve, we have no sideways to avoid it. But there always a hope there, the human nature will save us all. At least, I believe it works, and we can make it.

Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great. You can be that great generation.

Crash quotes

  • Officer Hanson: I don't want to cause any problems lieutenant, I just want a new partner.

    Lt. Dixon: I understand, your partner is a racist prick, but you don't want to disturb any bad feelings for him.

    Officer Hanson: Well, he's been on the force for a long time.

    Lt. Dixon: Seventeen years.

    Officer Hanson: And I do have to work here, Sir.

    Lt. Dixon: So, you don't mind if there's a racist prick on the force, you just don't want him riding in your car?

    Officer Hanson: If you need me to go on record about this, I will.

    Lt. Dixon: That'd be great, write a full report. But I'm anxious to understand how an obvious bigot can go undetected for seventeen years, eleven of which he was under my personal supervision, which doesn't speak too highly of my managerial skills, but that's not your concern. I can't wait to read it.

    Officer Hanson: What if i said I wanted a new partner for personal reasons?

    Lt. Dixon: So now you're saying he's not a racist prick, you just don't like him?

    Officer Hanson: Yes, Sir.

    Lt. Dixon: That's not a good enough reason.

    Officer Hanson: Then I should think of a better one and get back to you.

    Lt. Dixon: So, you think I'm asking you to make one up?

    Officer Hanson: No, Sir. I just can't think of one right now.

    Lt. Dixon: You want to know what I heard? I heard it was a case of uncontrollable flatulence.

    Officer Hanson: You want me to say he has flatulence?

    Lt. Dixon: Not him, you. You have uncontrollable flatulence and your too embarrassed to ride with anyone else. That's why your requesting a one man car.

    Officer Hanson: I'm not comfortable with that, lieutenant.

    Lt. Dixon: I wouldn't be either, which is why I understand your need for privacy, just like I'm sure you understand how hard a black man must work to get to stay where I am in a racist organization like the LAPD, and how easily that can be taken away. That being said, it's your decision. You can put your career and mine on the line in pursuit of a just cause, or just admit to have an embarrassing problem of the personal nature.

  • Christine: [to Cameron while impersonating a stereotypical African American slave] You're, right I have a lot to learn because I haven't quite learned how to shuck and jive, let me hear it again "thank you Mr. Po-lice man you sure mighty kind to us poor black folk, you be sure to let me know next time you finger fuck my wife!"
