  1. When They See Us@steemychicken1774d

    A few words about When they see us and why it deserves your watch source

    As I watched the first episode I couldn't even begin to imagine the ways this series was affecting me. Over the course of four hours it had me heartbreakingly sobbing and had my pulse and blood pressure going to god as I cursed everyone on screen. The proceedings had an increasing tension as at first, seeing the system's behavior on the five boys, I felt myself being teased and enraged by what I was seeing, leading up to the climactic 4th episode where I simply couldn't see the screen through the tears.

    So after watching the series, reading about the case and seeing the 2 interviews you can find with the real people, I started thinking about the reasons why the series touched me so deeply and on a personal level. In the end I came up with a scene that I think captures all the essence

    There is a scene in the second episode where although four of the guardians agreed to sign the children's false statements, it was to Anton's father that the prosecutor asked:

    Did you really think he was going home?

    The father did not know his rights, he was afraid of the police, he believed them. He and the rest seem naive to us. Really, how could they believe that if someone admitted to rape they would let him go??

    This fear of authority, of the system, of the cop's boot on your neck is what has transcended the boundaries of the Atlantic, the African-American experience, and is becoming a universal truth.

    Their feeling was weakness and a dependency. The feeling that they can do whatever they wanted to them, play with their life, step on their neck and humiliate them.

    The story of the five and When they see us is a shocking awakening, a call to action. It shows you what class oppression means. At the same time, it is excellently filmed and with performances that are engraved in your mind (Jharrel Jerome mvp).

    Review of "Así nos ven", a story of injustice, stigmatization and discrimination, based on a real case


    When they see us is a series based on a true story that occurred in 1989 in Central Park, where a girl who was running was raped and heavily assaulted until she was almost lifeless.

    The focus of this series is not the girl herself, but how discrimination even at that time, at. At the end of the 20th century, discrimination was still taking place in the United States, both in civil society and in the authorities. We don't need to talk about that time anyway, discrimination still exists and is often covered up, that's why I believe that spreading this content is a priority, here's why.

    Reseña de “Así nos ven”, una historia injusticia, estigmatización y discriminación, basada en un caso real


    “Así nos ven” (título original: When they see us) es una serie basada en una historia real que ocurrió en 1989 en Central Park, en donde una chica que iba corriendo fue violada y agredida fuertemente hasta quedar casi sin vida.

    El foco de esta serie no es la chica en sí, sino cómo la discriminación aún en aquella época,a. Fines del siglo XX, seguía teniendo lugar en Estados Unidos, tanto en la sociedad civil como el las autoridades. No es necesario que hablemos de aquel entonces de todas maneras, la discriminación todavía existe y muchas veces está encubierta, por eso creo que difundir este contenido es prioritario, a continuación veremos por qué.

    Plot


    This production shows how a group of teenagers who were in a bad time and in a bad place, ended up paying for the crime committed by someone else.

    Only one of them was 16 years old, and he was put in jail, while this boy even arrived later to the meeting with his friends, because he was with his girlfriend.

    The other boys were minors, for which they were sent to a reform school, from which they were later released to "integrate into society".

    Trama


    En esta producción se muestra cómo un grupo de adolescentes que estaban en un mal momento y en un mal lugar, terminaron pagando por el crimen cometido por alguien más.

    Solo uno de ellos tenía 16 años, y fue metido preso, mientras este chico incluso llegó más tarde a la juntada con sus amigos, porque estaba con su novia.

    Los demás chicos eran menores, por los que fueron enviados a un reformatorio, del que después salieron para “insertarse en la sociedad”.

    All of them, those who came out before and those who came out after, suffer a double stigmatization, the first due to their skin color and the second for having committed a crime (which they had not really committed, but in the eyes of society, manipulated and persuaded by the media, they had).

    It is difficult for these children to find work, study and a home. They are even looked down upon by their own families, who, during the years they were locked up, changed and found their own way.

    We can see how each one of them lives a different reality. Who was being waited for at home, who feels guilty by his own family, who is supported because they know at home that he did nothing.

    These boys, had to live between walls and bars for most of their lives for the mere fact that the legal system of their country, instead of protecting them, blamed them, even without evidence, because it was the easiest thing to do, because it was what in the eyes of others, had coherence. Instead of using more time and resources to find the real aggressor.

    Todos, quienes salieron antes y quienes salieron después, sufren una doble estigmatización, la primera dada por su color de piel y la segunda, por haber cometido un delito (que no habían cometido en verdad, pero a los ojos de la sociedad, manipulada y persuadida por los medios de comunicación, sí).

    A estos chicos les cuesta conseguir trabajo, estudio, hogar. Son hasta mirados mal por sus propias familias, que a lo largo de los años que ellos estuvieron encerrados cambiaron y encontraron su propio camino.

    Se observa cómo cada uno de ellos vive una realidad diferente. Quien estaba siendo esperado en su casa, quien se cree culpable por su propia familia, quien es apoyado porque saben en su casa que no hizo nada.

    Estos chicos, tuvieron que vivir entre paredes y rejas gran parte de su vida por el mero hecho de que el sistema legal de su país, en lugar de ampararlos, los culpó, incluso sin tener pruebas de ello, porque era lo más fácil, porque era lo que a los ojos de los demás, tenía coherencia. En lugar de utilizar más tiempos y recursos en encontrar al verdadero agresor.

    Even though they are still children, the police make them reproduce something they didn't even do, they want to convince them that they did it, they need them to confess in order to close the case and place on these children the burden of a crime they didn't commit. They need to do it to take the burden off themselves. And that is how they deprive them of their freedom.

    Incluso, aún siendo unos niños, la misma policía les hace reproducir algo que ellos ni hicieron, los quieren convencer de que lo hicieron, necesitan que confiesen para poder cerrar el caso y depositar en estos niños la carga de un delito que no cometieron. Necesitan hacerlo para sacarse ellos mismos el peso de encima. Y es así como los privan de su libertad.

    Opinion


    I recommend this series. Although I have a hard time watching this kind of productions, I think it is very important to spread this message.

    I feel quite helpless when I see these stories, even more when they are based on true stories, but it is essential to know that discrimination still exists, and although many people deny it, there are subtle messages that indicate that it is there, latent, ready to attack. And we have seen in not so distant years the manifestation of this, we have seen discrimination in action.

    Being able to know a story like this can help to raise awareness, to see how people's lives can be deprived, limited, by a society and a legal system that chooses to look at the surface, when the background is much deeper and more delicate.

    In the end in this story the culprit was not any of these boys, and luckily that is something that ends up coming to light, because in the system there are some people who want to make things right and act justly. However, those lives were already ruined, at least for a good amount of time. The stigmatization was incarnated and gone through by these kids, and the trauma has already been generated.

    Because these stories, which tell us about a group, we have to know that they do not only have repercussions on 5, 10, 20 people, they have repercussions on the whole community, generating a collective imaginary, a collective trauma, a collective fear.

    The world seems to be evolving in some aspects, while devolving in others. In a present where we still have to cultivate a sense of justice, sharing these realities, I repeat, is key.

    More than recommended.

    Opinión


    Recomiendo esta serie. Aunque me cuesta mucho ver este tipo de producciones, creo que es bien importante que se difunda este mensaje.

    Siento bastante impotencia cuando veo estas historias, más aun cuando son basadas en historias reales, pero es fundamental saber que la discriminación todavía existe, y aunque muchas personas lo nieguen, hay mensajes sutiles que indican que ahí está, latente, lista para atacar. Y hemos visto en años no tan lejano la manifestación de esto, hemos visto la discriminación en acción.

    El poder conocer una historia como esta puede colaborar a la toma de conciencia, el ver cómo la vida de personas puede verse privada, limitada, por una sociedad y un sistema legal que elige mirar la superficie, cuando el trasfondo es mucho más profundo y delicado.

    Al final en esta historia el culpable no era ninguno de estos chicos, y por suerte eso es algo que termina saliendo a la luz, porque en el sistema hay algunas personas que desean hacer las cosas bien y actuar con justicia. Sin embargo, esas vidas ya fueron arruinadas, al menos por una buena cantidad de tiempo. La estigmatización fue encarnada y atravesada por estos chicos, y el trauma ya fue generado.

    Porque estas historias, que nos hablan de un grupo, tenemos que saber que no repercuten solamente en 5, 10, 20 personas, repercuten en toda la comunidad, generando un imaginario colectivo, un trauma colectivo, un temor colectivo.

    El mundo parece estar evolucionando en algunos aspectos, mientras involuciona en otros. En un presente en donde todavía tenemos que cultivar el sentido de justicia, compartir estas realidades, repito, es clave.

    Más que recomentada.

  3. When They See Us: All the problem of the America in 4 episodes@serialfiller2236d

    Tunnel Wave.png

    Some 23 million unique Netflix accounts worldwide have watched "When They See Us", one of the bomb series of this hot serial summer.

    It's a series of only 4 episodes but with a wide duration of over an hour.

    To direct a rising star of the world author scene: Ava Duvernay.

    The series is inspired by a news story that took place in New York in 1989 when the world saw a wall collapse and believed that walls would never be raised again.

    But the world is full of walls, and if you are part of a racial minority like the African-American one, and you live in the leading country of the so-called free world, you have something to worry about.

    And so it happens that a rape of a white woman, in the middle of Central Park, becomes the fuse to stir up public opinion against the African-American community and muddy the already troubled waters.

    Five boys, five underage boys, four African-Americans and one Hispanic, guilty of having been near the site of the rape at the wrong time.

    The police will hold them in custody for hours, without food, beating them, threatening them, putting false words in their mouths. And through false promises and psychological terrorism they will manage to make them spit out a toad that will mark their lives.

    Zero investigation, zero zeal. Only the determination to put 5 innocent people in a cage because the signal to send was that only beasts of that color could have done such a heinous act.

    It was 1989, but the signs of what the world would become were all there.

    Guess who was the character who with the most rage and anger pushed public opinion and the police to frame five innocent children?

    Donald Trump.

    He would become president a quarter of a century later and little more, but his personality would not change.

    He even launched a petition to reintroduce the death penalty in the state of New York, so that it could be used immediately against those 5 animals who did not deserve to live.

    There were no smartphone or social media yet, but witch-hunting and post-truth were more than imminent danger.

    The series destroys the American justice system, highlights its vulnus, shakes its conscience, telling a very true and yet tragically inconceivable story.

    5 lives destroyed in the name of anger, hatred, and intentional blindness for propaganda and easy reading of any problem.

    They spoke of "When they see us" as a necessary and timely series.

    It is. And that's why it has to be looked at.

    Circa 23 milioni di account unici Netflix nel mondo hanno guardato "When They See Us", una delle serie bomba di questa estate seriale caldissima.

    Si tratta di una serie di soli 4 episodi ma di durata ampia di oltre un'ora.

    A dirigere un astro nascente del panorama autoriale mondiale: Ava Duvernay.

    La serie trae spunto da una vicenda di cronaca avvenuta a New York nel 1989 quando il mondo vedeva un muro crollare e credeva che di muri non ne sarebbero stati più alzati.

    Di muri però ne è pieno il mondo e se sei parte di una minoranza razziale come quella afroamericana, e vivi nel paese leader del cosiddetto mondo libero hai di che preoccuparti.

    E cosi capita che uno stupro ai danni di una donna bianca, nel bel mezzo di Central Park, diventi la miccia per aizzare l'opinione pubblica contro la comunità afroamericana ed intorbidire acque già agitatissime.

    A pagarne le conseguenze 5 ragazzi, 5 minorenni, 4 afroamericani e 1 ispanico, rei di essere stati nei pressi del luogo dello stupro al momento sbagliato.

    La polizia li terrà in custodia per ore, senza cibo, percuotendoli, minacciandoli, mettendo loro in bocca parole false. E attraverso false promesse e terrorismo psicologico riusciranno a fargli sputare un rospo che segnerà le loro esistenze.

    Zero indagini, zero zelo. Solo la determinazione di mettere in gabbia 5 innocenti perchè il segnale da mandare era che solo bestie di quel colore potevano aver compiuto un atto cosi efferato.

    Era il 1989 ma i segnali di quello che sarebbe diventato il mondo erano tutti li.

    Indovinate chi fu il personaggio che con maggior furore e rabbia spinse l'opinione pubblica e la polizia ad incastrare 5 ragazzini innocenti?

    Donald Trump.

    Sarebbe divenuto presidente un quarto di secolo più tardi e poco più ma la sua personalità non sarebbe cambiata.

    Lanciò addirittura una petizione per reintrodurre la pena di morte nello stato di New York, per poterla utilizzare immediatamente contro quei 5 animali che non meritavano di vivere.

    Non esistevano ancora ne smartphone ne social ma la caccia alle streghe e la post verità erano un pericolo più che imminente.

    La serie distrugge il sistema giudiziario americano, ne evidenzia i vulnus, ne scuote le coscienze, raccontando una storia verissima eppure tragicamente inconcepibile.

    5 vite distrutte in nome della rabbia, dell'odio, della cecità voluta a fini di propaganda e di facile lettura di qualsivoglia problema.

    Si è parlato di "When they see us" come di una serie necessaria e attuale.

    Lo è. E per questo va guardata.

    Life isn't a train. It's a shit tornado full of gold..png
