Contradictions between precious ideals and social realities are often handled by locating the problems of inequality in a limited setting, so that the rest of social life will not be disturbed. Racial inequality in America, starting with slavery, is concretely expressed in the troubled relations between agencies of social control, like the police, and racial minority communities. Two recent movies, The Hate U Give and When They See Us, deal with issues of extreme injustice in contacts between African American young men and the police who patrol their communities. The history of movies and real events shows these issues recurring. In spite of efforts to mend the difficult relationship, many recent scandals have raised alarms for the continuation of progress in race relations. Police shootings of unarmed young men and wrongful convictions of innocent young men have led to the “Black Lives Matter” movement and a recent outpouring of movies of protest by African American moviemakers.

没有适合年轻男孩的城市:当他们看到我们和非洲裔美国青年时,你会憎恨他们

处理宝贵的理想与社会现实的矛盾,往往是将不平等的问题定位在有限的环境中,不至于扰乱其余的社会生活。美国的种族不平等,从奴隶制开始,具体表现在社会控制机构(如警察)与少数族裔社区之间的麻烦关系上。最近的两部电影,《你的仇恨》和《当他们看到我们》,讲述了非裔美国年轻人与在社区巡逻的警察之间接触中极端不公正的问题。电影和真实事件的历史表明这些问题反复出现。尽管努力修复这种困难的关系,但最近发生的许多丑闻都为种族关系继续取得进展敲响了警钟。
