反映社会现实的美剧 美剧里的警匪片符合现实吗?

美剧里的警匪片符合现实吗?  

A few years ago
I had the honor of traveling through Accra
Ghana. As I rode down a main avenue
images grabbed my attention. On one side of the street
African children wearing rags played in an open sewer. On the other side of the street
there was a towering billboard advertisement featuring palm trees
a beach
and a Caucasian man lowering sunglasses from his eyes. The ad was for actor David Caruso
starring in the television series CSI: Miami.
The dichotomy of images was a reminder not only of the international reach of American pop culture
but of the specific influence of TV police procedurals.
In Hollywood
I'm a rare creature. A black man who has made a career
in part
writing for neork police shows
having eventually created my own show
S.W.A.T.
for CBS. For me
writing television can never simply be about entertainment. Many people in Hollywood have a fear of being didactic
preaching messages that risk making an audience feel unfortable. But
in the shadow of Gee Floyd's death at the hands of Minneapolis Police Officers
a question persists—how are the shows we are writing contributing to perceptions of the justice system
class
race
and the image of black men? I look at this
not as a creative burden
but a necessary responsibility.
在好莱坞，像我这样的人不多。我这个黑人有了自己的事业，部分时间为网络警匪片写剧本，后来还为哥伦比亚影业公司创作了电影《反恐特警组》。写电视剧本对我来说决不仅仅是为了娱乐。好莱坞很多人都害怕说教，担心说教内容会引起观众不适。但是乔治·弗洛伊德死在一名明尼阿波利斯警察手中给社会造成了阴影，因而一个问题出现了：我们创作的影视作品能怎样影响人们对司法系统、阶级、种族和黑人形象的看法？我觉得这是必须承担的责任，而不是一个有创意的负担。
Traditionally
the domain of TV police procedurals has been as morality plays
where clear lines are drawn. The past 60 years have seen shows like Drag
The Untouchables
and Adam 12 establish a formula where
within an hour of story
good lawmen
also known as square-jawed white cops
defeat bad guys
often known as poor people of color. This stark clarity
indulging the idea of the hero cop
often provides a sense of satisfaction for some viewers in an otherwise plicated world. This can make for wildly popular entertainment
but also risks encouraging fantasies to be perceived as reality rather than idealized fort food. People watch TV to see heroes
but how are we defining who a hero is? For people of color
especially black people
the viewing experience is plex.
