当今世界是一个文明平等的社会，但在上个世纪却并不是这样的。下面的这部美剧就深刻揭露了种族歧视的罪恶和凄惨，那它究竟讲了什么呢，让我们一起来看看吧！

Hello, everyone!  Welcome to our program.大家好，欢迎收听本期柠檬电台。
This is Sakura.我是主播Sakura。
Today I’m going to introduce you guys an American drama "them" .今天我要给大家推荐一部美剧《them》。

ts background set in the 1950s, the story revolves around a black family, who moved to a white-only neighborhood near Arthur Compton, the family' s ideal home will be the center of a chain of events.  The malevolent forces of Palmer Avenue, their neighbors, and even unexpected guests of the underground were all provocations to them, they even get threatened of being destructed.

背景设定在20世纪50年代，故事围绕着一个黑人家庭。他们搬到康普顿附近的一个只有白人的社区，这个家庭的理想家园将成为一系列事件的中心。帕尔默大道的恶势力、邻居甚至阴间的不速之客对他们来说都是各种挑衅，甚至威胁要摧毁他们。

The father graduated from college, got a job as an engineer, which it was already a wellpaid and decent job among the blacks, but he got a raw deal from the boss whose company almost were all white people. He tried to fight it, but had to put up with it over and over because of the reality. The mother had suffered from a great deal of harm because of the white, her little son also was maimed and killed by them. The eldest daughter of the black family was bullied by teachers and classmates, leading to the imagination of a white girl who was genuinely nice to her. She used to have a misunderstanding with his mother, she even thought her killed his brother. As for the youngest daughter of the black family was still a little child, and he was not aware of the conflict between whites and blacks.黑人父亲大学毕业拿到了一份工程师的工作并且在黑人里已经算是高薪且体面的工作，但他在几乎全都是白人的公司里还是遭到了上司的不公平遭遇，心底很想反抗但是由于现实不得不一次次隐忍。黑人母亲曾经因为白人遭受到了非常大的伤害，她的小儿子也被他们残害致死。黑人家族的大女儿到了新学校遭受到老师和同学的欺负后想象出了一个真心实意对她好的白人女孩儿，并且她对她的妈妈有误解，一度认为是妈妈杀害了弟弟。黑人家族的小女儿还比较小，她并不清楚白人和黑人之间的矛盾。

From the shooting technique, every scene and every split make people feel a strong emotional and audio-visual language tension. From the story, some interludes connect the cause and effect slowly, until finally found that there also exists a certain surrealism inside it, demons and the devils are actually co-existing.  从拍摄手法来说，每一场戏每一个分镜头都能够使人感受到很强的情绪与视听语言的张力，从故事来讲,倒叙，正叙，插叙这几个穿插把前因后果慢慢串联起来，看到最后才发现这也是有一定的超现实主义在里面的，心魔的显化展现和恶魔其实是并存的。

This drama is different from the previous racial discrimination theme' s drama, it shadows what white people did to the black, but also reflects the black people' s inner demon. At first glance, you may think it is a ghost movie, but in fact it is not, the director portrays everyone' s character and the inner demons, it is very new and has no sense of conflict.这部剧不同于以往的种族歧视题材的剧，它渲染了白人对黑人的迫害，也体现了黑人自己内心存在的心魔，乍看可能会以为是鬼片，但其实不然，导演很用心地去刻画每个人的性格，内心深处的恶魔，很新颖又毫无违和感。

That’s all for today, thank you for listening and taking your time!这就是本期的全部内容了，谢谢收听我们下期再见！

本期内容就到这里啦，希望小伙伴们都能怀有一颗包容宽厚的心，对不同种族的人一视同仁哦！只有这样，我们的社会才能越来越美好！
