The 1619 Project Season 1 part of TV Series: The 1619 Project
通过将奴隶制的后果和美国黑人的贡献置于美国叙事的中心,来重新构建美国的历史。“民主”、“种族”、“音乐”、“资本主义”、“恐惧”和“正义”这几集改编自《纽约时报》排名第一的畅销书《1619计划:一个新的起源故事》,探讨了奴隶制的遗产如何塑造当代美国生活的不同方面。
In keeping with the original project, the series seeks to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the very center of our national narrative. The episodes — “Democracy,” “Race,” “Music,” “Capitalism,” “Fear,” and “Justice” — are adapted from essays from The New York Times No. 1 bestselling “The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story” and examine how the legacy of slavery shapes different aspects of contemporary American life.

At three years old, a chatty, energetic little boy named Owen Suskind ceased to speak, disappearing into autism with apparently no way out. Almost four years passed and the only stimuli that engaged Owen were Disney films. Then one day, his father donned a puppet—Iago, the wisecracking parrot from Aladdin—and asked “what’s it like to be you?” And poof! Owen replied, with dialogue from the movie. Life, Animated tells the remarkable story of how Owen found in Disney animation a pathway to language and a framework for making sense of the world.
