We need a lot more people like him in this extremely divided country. If we did, the declaration of independence would have covered black Americans way back then, and perhaps even eliminate all of the hate that came afterwards.
This movie is so extraordinary to show how black people and more black women were badly treated even in a so American high tech company as the NASA. This moment when Costner hit his shit on the fan is so delicious. This was in the 60's, the John Glen era and still now, USA is struggling for simple human rights and making ALL Americans equals. This DEI erasing is another way to deny that everyone have the same chances in USA. Jiel here again.
So true. My father served in the US Army at Ft Polk Louisiana, the racism he witnessed off base in Leesville had to be seen to be believed. My father had to relieve himself at public bathroom not knowing about separate bathrooms for blacks and whites in the South. When he saw two restrooms for men he thought the signs white and colored were instructions for a painter to paint one door white and the other door red. He went to use the colored bathroom and was chased out by a black man who told my father that he the black man would be arrested if my father was in there ! Worse was seeing elderly black people being mistreated in public by whites of all ages, in our family if you as much as disrespect an elderly person you’d get your ass kicked no matter their color, not so in the South. Being from California my father couldn’t believe such racism at that level existed until he saw it for himself. And the worst thing was the frustration and shame of being unable to do anything about it, as he was told by his sergeant, the South has its own ways and some will kill you to keep it that way. Now we go back to this thanks to the Repugs and their so called Southern strategy to placate hate filled murderous racists. :( -Rj
Even today we can easily see that you are in «Divided States of America» after your last election and since a long time. Racism and mysoginistic are still values in most of the red states. Is illiminating the DEI policies the first step back to these old times or also making lives more difficult for those people of color and LBGTQ a step of facism ??? Now forbiddening the AP press journalist is like a reminder of 1933 Germany...
