Global warming is a big problem that we have to stop. One of the best things we can

Traveling is not always happy, at least for the buddies in the movie Green Book.

The popular film won Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Feb 25.

The movie was adapted from the true story of a road trip through the southern

US in the early 1960s.

In the film, the black pianist Don Shirley hires Italian-American Tony Vallelonga to

drive

him

to

performances,

but

they

face

problems

because

of

Shirley’s

skin

color.

T

“There’s something so deeply right about this movie, so true to the time,”

wrote US film critic Mick time LaSalle is talking about was between late

1870s and 1960s, a very different period in US history. Many parts of the country had

Jim Crow laws (

《吉姆·克劳法》

), which allowed racial segregation (

种族隔离

). These

laws made life and travel

39

for African-

Americans. They couldn’t use

certain

hotels, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after sunset or they

might be put into prison. Even black celebrities (

名人

) had to follow the laws.

But in 1936, a black mail carrier named Victor H. Green had an idea. He made

a list of friendly businesses in New York City. He published the list as a small book

with a green cover. The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely. Then,

in 1964, Jim Crow laws went away. The book went away, too.

Today many US people still remember the time of Jim Crow. But they probably

don’t

know about The Green Book. It’s a forgotten part of the story. Thanks to this movie,

maybe people can remember

it

again.
