Chapter 61 Let the Negro brothers act

Peterson's lawyer novel was so good, but there was something wrong with Lin Zixuan and Zhang Kangren.

According to Zhang Kangren's arrangement, Lin Zixuan would ask for the right to testify in court when interviewing reporters, and apply in writing to the Boston District Court.

As expected, the Boston District Court rejected Lin Zixuan's application on the grounds that it was the "Chinese Exclusion Act".

Therefore, Lin Zixuan used his own situation as an example to refute the injustice of the Chinese Exclusion Act and demanded that this clause in the Chinese Exclusion Act be repealed.

Because of the impact of the copyright dispute over "The Old Man and the Sea", Lin Zixuan was interviewed by many newspapers.

This view has also attracted the attention of the American media and sparked controversy.

This was discussed by Lin Zixuan and Zhang Kangren. The least thing they fear in anything is a debate. If no one has ever mentioned it, there will never be any possibility of progress.

Zhang Kangren contacted Chinese people living in the United States and his friends in the United States, and called on them to allow Chinese people to testify in court. This is the freedom and justice represented by democratic countries.

As the contact person of the embassy, ​​Wang Geng reported the matter to Chinese Ambassador Shi Zhaoji.

Shi Zhaoji is from Yuhang County, Hangzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang Province. He is the first Chinese student at Cornell University in the United States and the first Chinese student to receive a master's degree in the United States.

"China is weak and bullied by others. I am willing to use what I have learned to regain rights for the country and avenge my shame and strive for strength."

This is Shi Zhaoji's declaration of ideals.

After hearing Wang Geng’s report, he expressed support for the operation and negotiated with the US government.

This is related to the survival status of Chinese people in the United States.

With the efforts of all parties, Lin Zixuan as the center has indeed created some momentum. However, they still underestimated the mainstream American media's exclusion of Chinese people.

Only some newspapers without political parties will support Lin Zixuan. Almost all mainstream media in the United States have criticized it, which shows what kind of country the United States is.

To be honest, Lin Zixuan doesn’t know much about what Chinese people have experienced in the United States in this era.

In later reports, it is only said that under every sleeper in the United States, there is a corpse of a Chinese worker.

However, what you see in the book is never impressed by yourself.

Although he studied in the United States for two years and witnessed racial discrimination in the United States, this discrimination was not imposed on him and he could not empathize.

This time, I saw the overwhelming reports of mainstream American media and the discrimination and insults of Chinese people.

Lin Zixuan couldn't calm down.

Zhang Kangren has long been accustomed to this situation and has not gotten angry. He has lived in the United States for many years and knows that this situation cannot be changed overnight.

But the old man did not give up and still ran to improve the survival rights of Chinese people in the United States.

Lin Zixuan originally came to the United States to sue, but now he is in another trouble.

This situation is very unfavorable to him. He is in opposition to mainstream American society and is still just a debate in newspapers. But once it attracts the attention of American big shots, it will be troublesome.

American society has always paid attention to "political correctness".

This was originally a judicial concept, which mainly refers to the need to be "political correct" in the judicial language, that is, "compliance with judicial provisions" or "compliance with the law or the constitution".

Later, it gradually evolved into "a language that coincides with the overwhelming advantage of public opinion or customs."

In other words, in daily life conversations, any public opinion or custom that does not conform to the overwhelming advantage is considered "political incorrect."

The political correctness of American society now is to dispel China, which is a general trend in American society.

Neither Zhang Kangren, Shi Zhaoji, nor Lin Zixuan can change it. They are competing with the entire United States.

Lin Zixuan calmed down and thought about countermeasures.

After all, there are not many Chinese people and cannot cause a large amount of public opinion. In the United States, whites are the mainstream, and then blacks are...

Maybe it's time to let the black brothers take action.

The next day, while having breakfast, Lin Zixuan came over with a few pieces of manuscript papers.

Several people sat around the table and ate breakfast, including Zhang Kangren, Wang Geng, Lu Xiaoman, Zheng Zhengqiu and Zhou Jianyun.

Lin Zixuan sat down, handed the manuscript to Zhang Kangren, and then ate breakfast calmly.

Zhang Kangren was quite surprised and didn't know what Lin Zixuan meant. He looked at the manuscript paper, which read "I Have a Dream".

"Sixty years ago, a great American signed the "Proclamation on the Liberation of Black Slaves". The promulgation of this important decree is like a huge lighthouse that brings the light of hope, just like a happy dawn that ends the long night of imprisonment."

"However, sixty years later, we must face up to the tragic fact that blacks have not yet been free. Sixty years later, under the shackles of apartheid and racism, the lives of blacks are greatly squeezed. Sixty years later, blacks are still living on a poor island in a sea of ​​material abundant. Sixty years later, blacks are still huddled in the corner of American society and realize that they are exiles in their hometown."

"When the founders of our Republic drafted the energetic words of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, they made a promise to every American that they promised that all, both white and black, would have an untransferable right to survival, freedom and the right to pursue happiness."

Zhang Kangren's scalp was numb and his heart beat faster.

He covered his chest and looked for medicine in his pocket. He suffered from heart disease.

Lin Zixuan was startled and hurriedly fed the medicine to Zhang Kangren. He just wanted to show off his skills, but never thought about Zhang Kangren's physical condition.

When the matter subsided, Wang Geng, who was sitting next to him, picked up the manuscript paper and started reading it.

“As long as black people are still subject to barbaric persecution that the police cannot describe, we will never be satisfied.”

“As long as our tired bodies are running outside, we cannot find accommodation in motels by the road and in the city, we will never be satisfied.”

“As long as the basic range of activities of blacks is only transferred from small slums where ethnic minorities live to large slums, we will never be satisfied.”

“As long as our children are deprived of themselves and dignity by the 'white only' slogan, we will never be satisfied.”

“As long as there is still a black man in Mississippi who can’t participate in the election, and as long as there is a black man in New York who thinks his vote is useless, we will never be satisfied.”

"No! We are not satisfied now, nor are we satisfied in the future, unless justice and justice are like the waves of rivers and seas, surging and rolling in."
