再這樣看下去就成了“每日以淚洗面”了。片中那個執迷不悟 白Larry 可是說出了很多人的心裡話:他們如果不這麼做,就會更發達,就有能力幫助更多的人。會有這樣的好事嗎?實現一個社會的正義 安全 是需要具體到每一個細節的“行動”的。在社會完全良善之前,每一次行動都有可能是在發達和正義之間的抉擇。這是這個社會的問題,可也只有正確的行動才能改變它。第一次選錯,難說有沒有機會再選對,而再這之前還會一直行惡。而Peter,本是一個bystander,卻為自已一開始選對而慶幸、驕傲,因為給了自己機會把對的事情一直做下去。好多人把"達則兼濟"偷換成“達才兼濟”,更是把“勿以善小而不為”拋到九霄雲外。原來都是有大格局的人啊。

其他的先不提了,對廢除死刑有疑慮的可以用來體驗一下。不要覺得這只是美國Deep South的污糟事,+86可比這會玩兒。

Reading with Patrick 豆瓣
作者: Michelle Kuo Random House 2017 - 7
Recently graduated from Harvard University, Michelle Kuo arrived in the rural town of Helena, Arkansas, as a Teach for America volunteer, bursting with optimism and drive. But she soon encountered the jarring realities of life in one of the poorest counties in America, still disabled by the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow. In this stirring memoir, Kuo, the child of Taiwanese immigrants, shares the story of her complicated but rewarding mentorship of one student, Patrick Browning, and his remarkable literary and personal awakening.
Convinced she can make a difference in the lives of her teenaged students, Michelle Kuo puts her heart into her work, using quiet reading time and guided writing to foster a sense of self in students left behind by a broken school system. Though Michelle loses some students to truancy and even gun violence, she is inspired by some such as Patrick. Fifteen and in the eighth grade, Patrick begins to thrive under Michelle’s exacting attention. However, after two years of teaching, Michelle feels pressure from her parents and the draw of opportunities outside the Delta and leaves Arkansas to attend law school.
Then, on the eve of her law-school graduation, Michelle learns that Patrick has been jailed for murder. Feeling that she left the Delta prematurely and determined to fix her mistake, Michelle returns to Helena and resumes Patrick’s education—even as he sits in a jail cell awaiting trial. Every day for the next seven months they pore over classic novels, poems, and works of history. Little by little, Patrick grows into a confident, expressive writer and a dedicated reader galvanized by the works of Frederick Douglass, James Baldwin, Walt Whitman, W. S. Merwin, and others. In her time reading with Patrick, Michelle is herself transformed, contending with the legacy of racism and the questions of what constitutes a “good” life and what the privileged owe to those with bleaker prospects.

[3.5/5] 主要是作者內心活動的描寫,所以看多了覺得有點“太細膩了吧”。不過有很多有啟發甚至是當頭棒喝的東西。想要站起來,所需要的太多,甚至是對一個標點寫錯的不當責備,都會導致前功盡棄。

Saving Our Selves: A BET COVID-19 Relief Effort (2020) 豆瓣
演员: 安东尼·安德森 / 雷吉娜·赫尔
在COVID-19 全球疫情衝擊下,弱勢人口受到尤其嚴重的衝擊。在美國,非裔因COVID-19病故的比例比其他族群高至少3.4倍,體現出健康權的嚴重不公。
為了支持以非裔、拉美裔為主要組成的有色人種社區,黑人娱乐電視台(BET, Black Entertainment Television)發起了的線上音樂集會活動,傳遞音樂、安慰,並籍此募捐,以用於支持這些弱勢社區的公益項目。
The “Saving Our Selves: A BET COVID-19 Relief Effort” broadcast special, will air on Wednesday, April 22, at 8/7c. The special, co-hosted by Grammy Award-Winning singer and actress Kelly Rowland, TV personality Terrence J and actress Regina Hall, will feature virtual appearances and musical performances from some of the biggest names in music and entertainment as they share tips on how to manage, cope and help during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. Celebrity guest appearances and performances will include DJ Khaled, Charlie Wilson, Chance the Rapper, Kirk Franklin, Fantasia, Melvin Crispell III and many more. The special will give up-to-date information and drive viewers to needed resources during this unprecedented time. In partnership with United Way, proceeds are being donated to African-American communities severely impacted by COVID-19.
“Our goal for this special is to come together in a collective spirit of strength, community and hope. As we unite in harmony and compassion, through the collective healing power of music, comedy and entertainment, we can bring restoration and inspire the world that our brighter days are ahead,” said Connie Orlando, EVP Specials, Music Programming & Music Strategy at BET.

因為幫扶目標更明確,所以看起來傳達出更多希望的感覺。而且沒有出現捧譚德塞的臭腳的情況。
