The Grace Lee Project (2005) [Movie] Douban
director: Grace Lee actor: Grace Lee / Grace Lee
When Korean American filmmaker Grace Lee was growing up in Missouri, she was the only Grace Lee she knew. Once she left the Midwest however, everyone she met seemed to know "another Grace Lee." But why did they assume that all Grace Lees were reserved, dutiful, piano-playing overachievers? The filmmaker plunges into a funny, highly unscientific investigation into all those Grace Lees who break the mold -- from a fiery social activist to a rebel who tried to burn down her high school. With wit and charm, THE GRACE LEE PROJECT puts a hilarious spin on the eternal question, "What's in a name?"

98岁的陈玉平(Grace Lee Boggs)是一位生活在底特律的作家、倡权者和哲学家。这是一部关于她的思想、倡权行动和生活的纪录片《美国革命:陈玉平的演进》(American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs)。
陈玉平出生于1915年,父母是移民,经营中餐馆。陈玉平从小生活舒适,但感到社会需要变革。她毕业于伯纳德学院,后在布林莫尔学院攻读哲学,1940年获得博士学位。由于少数族裔在当时美国社会的境遇,毕业后,她在芝加哥大学的哲学图书馆谋得一份低薪工作。她在租住的地区无意中见到非裔市民抗议,从此关注和参与非裔美国人争取平等权利的民权运动。
后来,她到有大量汽车工人的底特律,和汽车制造工人和工人权益倡权人士James Boggs结婚。陈玉平和新婚丈夫度蜜月时,不得不在车里过夜,因为当时的种族隔离法令她的非裔新婚丈夫无法入住汽车旅馆。她成了非裔社区的一分子,参与当地的民权运动。
陈玉平的思想深受黑格尔的辩证法和马克思的社会发展理论的影响。她的思想不断地演变,如今,她倡导非暴力,在家门口的草坪上放着“不要战争”的牌子。她认为,不应该将希望寄托在领导人身上,变化应该从自身开始。年届高龄,她还组织“底特律暑假” 和“社区花园”项目,在一个衰落的城市里致力于社区的重建。
