This article reviews I Am Not Your Negro, a documentary film based on Remember this House, an unfinished manuscript written by James Baldwin. I Am Not Your Negro is a critical film for any public service professional who impacts the lives and livelihoods of Black people in the United States. The critical nature of this film rests in the tragedy of lives lost in a quest for justice for Black people in the US. Baldwin’s conceptualization of “the Negro problem” is an ethical concern that undergirds a strong rationale to advance social equity in American society. Using the tenets of critical race theory, we argue public service personnel have an ethical duty to actively oppose racism, reject color-blind ideology, engage in critical reflection and discourse about justice and the denial of the American dream, and pursue social equity as a means of achieving justice for all.

本文回顾了《我不是你的黑人》，这是一部纪录片，改编自詹姆斯·鲍德温（James Baldwin）未完成的手抄本《记住这所房子》。我不是你的黑人对于任何影响美国黑人生活和生计的公共服务专业人员来说，这是一部至关重要的电影。这部电影的关键性质在于为美国黑人寻求正义而丧生的悲剧。鲍德温（Baldwin）对“黑人问题”的概念化是一个伦理问题，它为促进美国社会的社会公平提供了强有力的理由。我们使用批判种族理论的宗旨，认为公共服务人员负有道德义务，要积极反对种族主义，拒绝色盲意识形态，就正义和否定美国梦进行批判性反思和讨论，并追求社会公平为所有人实现正义的手段。
