种族鸿沟：不了解自己的历史就难以获得进步

【种族鸿沟：不了解自己的历史就难以获得进步】#美国的种族鸿沟#从纽约的布朗克斯到布鲁克林，非洲裔学生和家长与前美国国内政策委员会主任塞西莉亚·穆尼奥斯讲述着他们的梦想、挫折和恐惧。在塞西莉亚看来，“美国人应该认真研究奴隶制的丑陋历史，当我们不了解自己的历史时，要获得公平与进步就更加困难”。From the Bronx to Brooklyn, students and parents share their dreams, frustrations and fears with Cecilia Muñoz, former director of the Domestic Policy Council of the United States. "We're in this time in the United States where we are really taking another look at our own history, and reckoning with the things that we fail to understand or chose not to see," she says. "And those things affect us very, very deeply. So that's most vivid with respect to the African American community. We are taking a hard look at the ways in which the ugly history of slavery affects things that we are still living with, that black people in America are still living with. And I'm convinced that it's more difficult to make progress when we don't understand our history."
