race relation
Prejudice is a universal existence. It appears within a race and between races. In our country, because of the tremendous number of people, mistreat and bias are not unusual. One of the most tragic examples is peasants. Citizens look down upon peasants because they are poor and illiterate, without noticing the sarcastic fact that they are laughing at who feed them. The worse fact is that the word “peasant” is commonly used to humiliate a person. As we all know, bias based on careers exists in every society. Yet how frightening it is that 70% of the population is being mistreated? The awareness of thankfulness is one of the biggest subjects in modern China. In the movie “Do the right thing”, also as a food supplier, Sal differs from peasants. He holds higher fame partly because of his race. However when conflict took place, people turned their anger against him. The minority races are in a potentially dangerous position in the neighborhood. In my opinion, “Do the right thing” tell us about the distrust among different races. No matter how friendly they seem to be, there is distrust in the root of their hearts. It is a universal issue. With the same performance in the schools, international graduates find themselves inferior in both opportunity and payments compared to local people. The sad fact is that it is true and reasonable that people like to turn to their brethren. A book should not be judged by its cover, but it is more comfortable to read a book written in your mother tongue. Human beings are sensitive animals, achieving critical, which is the opposite character, is not easy, no saying about keep oneself in critical thinking. Thus, to build a friendship with foreigners, we should not only use our personal ability, but also base it on solicitude and understanding.
