Maybe discrimination comes from human nature

A lot of human fear and rejection also comes from ignorance. For the unknown or different from themselves, people instinctively choose to refuse. Skin color, past behavior, language, and even accents can divide people around you into two categories — those who are similar to you and those who are different. "The Stain of Human Nature" tells such a story. There may be a great redemption for the soul in the story, and it may be everyone's soul that needs to be redeemed, a society that has always been full of discrimination and inequality.
In the American society of the 1950s and 1960s, for black people to become negro, all kinds of inequalities were derived from different skin colors, such as discrimination, exclusion, suspicion and so on. A professor of classical literature at the university was fired by the university for misusing the words, followed by the death of his always strong wife due to a cerebral embolism. All the orderly life collapsed in an instant, and at this moment Kerman seemed to suddenly have nothing. The same lonely woman appeared in his life, and this moment seemed to be the redemption of the last part of his life. Two people seem to love each other, but they don't. No matter how they have each other, their lives can go on better - it seems an inexplicable dependence. Nearly an hour and a half later, in a car crash the same way the movie started, they died like this. At Keman's funeral, the professor who had been his hand in hand said, "Keman was betrayed by the ignorance of the group." The movie does not end here, and the memories of Kerman continue.
Isn't this an irony? A black man who claimed to be Jewish white because he was born fair-skinned ended up being accused of racism for calling two students who had never met "spook" and lost everything including his reputation, job, and wife. At the end of his life, Time met his last lover, but he was criticized. In the end, he could only be recognized as a "strange" accident and left this world that he had always been brooding about.
The movie has been using the writer's third perspective as the main line of the story, giving everyone an amazing start with the beginning of the flashback. I thought that the story would end when the circle was drawn, but it seems that I want to make the story go on for a quarter of an hour. The story is better told. The story is interspersed with Keman's memories and narrations indefinitely. Everything seems to be messy, but it seems to be proceeding in an orderly manner. All those who have died have died, and those who are still alive may want to do something for the world, so that the world can understand the suffering and injustice experienced by those who have lived. Perhaps, discrimination and injustice have always existed in the world, since Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden, it exists in human nature.

    She smokes a cigarette, Luo Tuo's appearance is sympathetic, she dances, and her elegant appearance is moving.

The Human Stain quotes

  • Nathan Zuckerman: Coleman, every mistake a man can make usually has a sexual accelerator. The things that restore you can also destroy you.

  • Faunia Farley: [dancing provocatively] You're way too young for me. I need a man much older than you. At least 100. Know anyone in a wheelchair?
