When I was a freshman, I was forced to help a friend participate in a debate competition, which made me extremely disgusted with him. Speaking of this film, it is too politically correct and the characters are too...

Denzel directed and acted by himself, I don't know if it was the first time. If it is, it's not bad, if not, there's a lot more to pass. Compared with "rocket technology", it is still too...

In my sophomore year, I once witnessed the tragedy of the debate competition in our school.

Melvin B. Tolson: Take the meanest, most restless nigger. Strip him of his clothes in front of the remaining male niggers, female niggers, and nigger infants, tar and feather him, tie each leg to a horse facing an opposite direction, set him on fire, and beat both horses until they tear him apart in front of male, female and nigger infants. Bullwhip and beat the remaining nigger males within an inch of their life. Do not kill them but put the fear of God in them, for they can be useful for future breeding. Anybody know who Willie Lynch was? Anybody? Raise your hand. No one? He was a vicious slave owner in the West Indies. The slave-masters in the colony of Virginia were having trouble controlling their slaves, so they sent for Mr. Lynch to teach them his methods. The word "lynching" came from his last name. His methods were very simple, but they were diabolical. Keep the slave physically strong but psychologically weak and dependent on the slave master. Keep the body, take the mind.
