Eight hundred and seventy.(2/2)







"Mr. Bobby, I need to express my gratitude to you on behalf of everyone here." Brown breathed a sigh of relief. He and Miles were friends for many years. Miles's son Dove was also grown up. His concern for Dove was exactly the same as that of Miles: "Why do you do this? Are your requests just as simple as you put forward?"

"White people always look at black people with tinted glasses..." Bobby's tone was so calm: "You always think that we have given us too much, always think that we have taken too much, and always think that social unrest is caused by us. Gentlemen, ladies, I think the city government has not told you completely truthfully the truth about how the Casri Academy incident happened...."

Bobby quickly explained the whole story of the Casri Academy incident.











And what he said is indeed very different from what the official said.











If what he said was completely true, then the cause of the matter was the white children. This made Miles feel very ashamed.











He knew his son so well, Dove was an absolute racist, and he always believed that all black people should disappear from American land.











"Our injured black brothers are still at Casri College..." Bobby said in a heavy tone: "We once wanted to send them to the best-in-class Oakland Hospital, but there is a rule that we will not accept any black people. For such a long time after President Lincoln issued the declaration of emancipation of black people, serious racial discrimination was still everywhere in the United States, a country that advocates democracy and freedom. Isn't this a satirical mockery of this country? Black people do the lowest work in the United States, enjoy the lowest wages, and all our rights cannot be guaranteed, and even hospitals refuse to accept our right to see a doctor. This is not something that can be seen in a civilized and progressive country... I think maybe such a terrible situation will only happen in the United States...."

He was silent there: "If this is not enough to show that racism in the United States is serious, then I think I can use myself as an example. Gentlemen, ladies, I graduated from Merritt College. I studied law, but no law firm is willing to accept a black man like me, and white people monopolize all the resources in this industry. After graduating from Merritt College, I have done many lower-level jobs, but I have nothing to do with my legal major... Gentlemen, ladies, I cannot know whether this is my own sorrow or the sorrow of the entire American system...."

His eyes slowly swept across everyone: "I guess many of you are making such a voice in their hearts, look. The damn black man is no longer satisfied. We allow them to come to the United States and give them work and bread, but they are always chattering and complaining that these niggers should return to the land they originally lived in. They should not exist in this country. But, I think what I must tell you is that all our blacks have an American dream. This American dream is just to allow us to get more dignity and recognition in this country, not greed. We have paid far more than the whites, but no matter how hard we try, we cannot get your recognition...."

Bobby's tone gradually became a little heavier: "In New York, I have a friend, also a black man. After countless years of hard work, he finally became an enviable supervisor in a white company. But do you know what kind of life he lives? His secretary does not spread rumors about the office to him. Because they get along more restrained than most people. As an intermediate supervisor of a billion-yuan company, he has the power to eat in the restaurant, but he can't imagine being with the company.

The dean and other senior executives sat at the dining table. At the company dance, he dared not invite his wife to dance with him. Occasionally he would drink with his colleagues. When he left the bar, his colleagues rushed to the train to the suburbs, and he took the subway to return to the mixed apartment in the city. His neighbors hardly tried to climb up the management of the company like him. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Bobby's words made these white people reflect on some. Indeed, in some ways, the white people did too much. If they had heard Bobby's words before, the white people would only think that the black man was crazy, but now their mentality is completely different from before.

"We promise to release all hostages, which is the most solemn promise of a black man." Bobby said solemnly: "Please believe me, in many cases, the promise of black man is more reliable than the promise of white man. After the incident has subsided, my partners and I are willing to be tried in court, and all the responsibilities will be borne by us. We will not regret it because we have done what we should do for the fairness of all black men in the United States, and we have nothing to regret even if we sentence us to hang. Gentlemen, ladies, I think this is what a black man wants to tell you!"
