The experience of reading "Green Book": It is naturally reminiscent of "To Kill a Mockingbird" Liskoot said: "I think there is only one kind of person in the world, and that is human." Of course, this is only The idea of ​​a nine-year-old may fade as she grows older, understands and integrates into the adult world. After all, in real society, people are conventionally divided into three, six, nine, and so on. There are various criteria for classification, ranging from macro to micro. It can be your skin color, nationality, beliefs, your wealth and power status, or even your lifestyle, social style, occupational sexual orientation, etc. Anyway, as long as there is a collective that needs to coexist with people, whether it is a work organization or a family organization, as long as there are individual differences, then of course there are differences between people and people, and of course they must be classified into categories and levels. There are countless people and countless chains of contempt in the world. Although you are safe and secure, and you have never posed a threat to others or affected their lives, you have accidentally stayed in a relatively small group, or you are unfortunately at the end of the chain of contempt, or just It's your behavior that doesn't meet the public's expectations, and maybe you're going to face injustice. Although this is truly unjustified injustice. There is another sentence in To Kill a Mockingbird that strikes me: As long as he is given the slightest chance, he will exercise his regal privilege, he will arrange, advise, exhort, and warn. Some adjectives come to mind: whispering, finger pointing, chattering, bitterness. Those words alone are exhausting and tiresome. Tony's approach to these annoyances in the film is a good one, when the pianist wants him to speak more gracefully , in order to better echo the so-called "high-class people", Tony's reaction was (what I summed up): go to TM, what they want to say and say, I can do whatever I like, and I don't know them well anyway.
