一年多前看了一部《小牲口》,震撼的了得。书中一句颇有共鸣的话大致是这样:人们总觉得青春年少最单纯最美好,但其实小孩是最残酷无情的。成人之后,起码还会学得圆滑;而小孩无论是伤害别人还是被伤害,都是赤裸裸的。 从那以后,我确信,每个人内心都有残酷青春留下的影子...

评分最近很容易流泪,不知道是不是年纪大了的缘故。 这本书翻看了几页,就有种流泪的冲动;看到34页最后一句,我感觉有些什么东西想要自体内挣脱出来,于是,我放下书,抬起头,望望天花板,五秒钟之后,我开始写那篇《我不在乎》,我原意是要写这一篇的,可是情绪成功...

Straight from the front line of urban America, the inspiring story of one fiercely determined teacher and her remarkable students.
As an idealistic twenty-three-year-old English teacher at Wilson High School in Long beach, California, Erin Gruwell confronted a room of “unteachable, at-risk” students. One day she intercepted a note with an ugly racial caricature, and angrily declared that this was precisely the sort of thing that led to the Holocaust—only to be met by uncomprehending looks. So she and her students, using the treasured books Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl and Zlata’s Diary: A Child’s Life in Sarajevo as their guides, undertook a life-changing, eye-opening, spirit-raising odyssey against intolerance and misunderstanding. They learned to see the parallels in these books to their own lives, recording their thoughts and feelings in diaries and dubbing themselves the “Freedom Writers” in homage to the civil rights activists “The Freedom Riders.”
With funds raised by a “Read-a-thon for Tolerance,” they arranged for Miep Gies, the courageous Dutch woman who sheltered the Frank family, to visit them in California, where she declared that Erin Gruwell’s students were “the real heroes.” Their efforts have paid off spectacularly, both in terms of recognition—appearances on “Prime Time Live” and “All Things Considered,” coverage in People magazine, a meeting with U.S. Secretary of Education Richard Riley—and educationally. All 150 Freedom Writers have graduated from high school and are now attending college.
With powerful entries from the students’ own diaries and a narrative text by Erin Gruwell, The Freedom Writers Diary is an uplifting, unforgettable example of how hard work, courage, and the spirit of determination changed the lives of a teacher and her students.
The authors’ proceeds from this book will be donated to The Tolerance Education Foundation, an organization set up to pay for the Freedom Writers’ college tuition. Erin Gruwell is now a visiting professor at California State University, Long Beach, where some of her students are Freedom Writers.</p>
简直是奇迹
评分看到一半有点失去耐心,翻到最后几页,看到了一个学生背UCLA录取,心满意足地合上了书。 这是一个好老师,一个好故事,可是吧150个学生的4年日记筛选出这一本书的厚度,一切变化都显得太有戏剧性了,让人觉得好像不太真实,所以我有点无动于衷。
