摘要
Although slavery was abolished in the 1860s,its influence still continued and the blacks were not readily assimilated into the large American culture.Most of them remain in the South,where they were legally segregated from whites.This paper takes the Hollywood movie The Help as an example,and describes racism embodied in the movie and analyzes the root of racism.It is hoped that this paper will help readers to have a better understanding of racism in the United States.
