The end of slavery under President Abraham Lincoln was not the end of racism. The mistreatment of Black Americans continued, as the film The Color Purple shows. Set in the countryside of Georgia in the early twentieth century, I believe the movie demonstrates how racism has continued in the United States.

Celie Harris, a young Black American girl, is the main character in the film. Celie has problems at home and in the outside world. Celie’s life will never be perfect, but by the end of the movie her life is improving and there is hope. She realizes that she can be independent and take charge of her destiny.


As a Black American teenager, I was very moved by The Color Purple. Celie’s struggles are common to many Black people in the United States, but the ultimate message is that there is hope. The color purple is the symbol of hope, as it is a vivid, strong color that cannot be ignored. Celie chose to take back her life and not let people dictate her every move. She finally saw the color purple with her own eyes. I just found out that the movie was based on a book by the author Alice Walker. She won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction and the National Book Award. Something tells me that the book is going to be even better than the movie.
