1436. Racial discrimination

But it was precisely because of the in-depth reading process that these literary critics discovered some private goods that Lisko deliberately mixed in the writing process. It was just a literary critic who discovered the original idea.

It's just that my thoughts may be a little too extreme, or the writer himself doesn't have this intention, but because of his own answers and extensions, this work has this atmosphere to a certain extent.

But when all the literary critics got together, the main reason they got together was to share and read and communicate with each other to complete their own promotional manuscripts and submit them to Random House as part of the promotion plan.

But when they exchanged their feelings with each other during the chat, they independently discovered that almost everyone had the same feeling during the reading process, and even the matter itself had not done anything too much.

Too secretive a cover-up.

Originally, the writer's own opinions would not have any impact on their literary critics, but after considering that they accepted the employment of Random House, they also reported this issue after statistics. After all, the current era is different from

Things are different in the past. Although to some extent everyone advocates the concept of freedom of speech and freedom of writing, some topics still need to be avoided as much as possible to avoid arousing the fragile glass hearts of certain races.

Before writing this book, Lisko had already made corresponding expectations, because the original work also caused a great sensation in his previous life, and even to a certain extent, it was an adaptation of an immortal movie that was engraved in the history of the development of the world film industry.

It is a famous film, Gone with the Wind, but there is no possibility of any adaptation or remake after that.

The main reason is that this book seems to reflect the current state of American society to a certain extent, which is the widely controversial Black Lives Matter theory in society.

You must know that even though the United States as a whole has been promoting itself as a relatively democratic and free country, to a certain extent, the country itself is full of contradictions and ridiculousness. Racial discrimination is a pustule on the face of the United States, or it is

White lives matter, or black lives matter. All other races must step aside. A country that has no equality at all always promotes and advocates the spirit of freedom and equality.

In fact, strictly speaking, this work itself does not have much discrimination against black people, and the protagonist of this book also evaluates this matter from a fair and just standpoint. Moreover, it is said through the mouth of the protagonist Scarlett

The words spoken are indeed such social facts. People like hard-working and kind-hearted groups. At the same time, these people also need to have some education, and this favorite group is not limited to whether you are white or black.

This is also a situation caused by social conditions. Because white people are more likely to receive relatively good education, and black people may also have some relatively good qualities, but people will not pay attention to these groups of people.

Through newspapers and all sources of information, I can always see the headlines about black people who gather to cause trouble, so I can't help but form some relatively stereotyped impressions.

Originally, if this work was placed in another era, people might not be so easily attacked and passive. Even the entire group of literary critics itself is composed of white and yellow black people, and almost everyone knows it.

Is it a deliberate reason or is it just the nature of the profession?

Perhaps everyone has been persecuted and attacked on this issue too much, so they are particularly cautious, even fearful and avoidant on this issue.

When this issue was handed over to Random House, the people in charge of these publishing houses felt a little tricky for a while. To be honest, they didn't have a very good impression of the black group itself, but this society is

In this way, no matter what you are thinking in your heart, or what your own opinions are, you cannot express them in public, let alone explain your thoughts through your works.

Because if a work is really circulated like this, its influence will be too great and it will arouse unanimous attacks from all black groups, turning what originally seemed a very ordinary little thing into a big discussion about discrimination in the entire society.

If the topic were changed to something else, Random House would naturally be happy to see it happen. After all, only a bigger topic can make the influence of this work greater, and at the same time, it can save some publicity costs.

, directly through the spread of these events, officially entered everyone's eyes.

This is also the best way to publicize.

However, people cannot be careless when it comes to issues of racial discrimination. Although Random House felt very sorry in its heart, it still transferred the manuscript back to Lisko. This behavior is naturally not a rejection of the manuscript, and I believe that in this world

There is no way any publishing house in the world will refuse Lisko's submission. I just want to discuss a better solution with this world-famous writer and try my best to see if the manuscript can be modified to avoid this aspect.

.

After Lisko received the feedback from the publishing house, he felt a little helpless for a while. To be honest, because of his own ancestry, he was not that fond of black people. Of course, this opinion was concentrated among this group, and overall

He himself hired some black cowboys to his ranch, and Weiss himself was also an old retainer of his family, so he didn't have much discrimination or different opinions towards Weiss.

But money is something he knows and is familiar with, and everything makes it difficult for him to express some love for this race. When he was writing and describing this scene, he once thought about whether he should revise it.

, but in the end I still wrote it truthfully with a lucky mentality.

Expressing one's true cognition and three views through works is something a writer particularly likes to do, and many writers are willing to mix some of their own opinions and private goods into their works.

However, it is true that the impact of racial discrimination incidents has been too bad. Even if the publisher has full confidence in Lisko's works, it is still afraid of the subsequent fermentation and subsequent impact caused by such incidents.
