Shocked by the teenage violence she witnessed during the Rodney King riots in Los Angeles, Erin Gruwell became a teacher at a high school rampant with hostility and racial intolerance. For many of these students–whose ranks included substance abusers, gang members, the homeless, and victims of abuse–Gruwell was the first person to treat them with dignity, to believe in their potential and help them see it themselves. Soon, their loyalty towards their teacher and burning enthusiasm to help end violence and intolerance became a force of its own. Inspired by reading The Diary of Anne Frank and meeting Zlata Filipovic (the eleven-year old girl who wrote of her life in Sarajevo during the civil war), the students began a joint diary of their inner-city upbringings. Told through anonymous entries to protect their identities and allow for complete candor, The Freedom Writers Diary is filled with astounding vignettes from 150 students who, like civil rights activist Rosa Parks and the Freedom Riders, heard society tell them where to go–and refused to listen.

A high school class of "at-risk" students in Long Beach, California, inspired by their English teacher, Erin Gruwell, kept this joint diary of anonymous entries. Three voices read, one for Gruwell, one for the girls, and one for the boys. These kids have rough lives, and the pieces range from puerile to horrific to moving as the class garners national and even international attention. All three narrators are clear, personable, and good at conveying emotion. But the snapshot quality and anonymity of the entries leads to sameness and a flattening effect, a fault of the text that the readers cannot overcome. This is a capable rendering of a sometimes frustrating book. W.M.

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...
評分一年多前看了一部《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...
評分首先想说的是,这本书翻译很一般,以至于感觉到生硬而没有情韵。但是我还是看哭过(囧)。 这并非奇迹,无论是从起因,还是从结果看。作为一个心怀理想的实习教师,格鲁维尔小姐选择了威尔森高中来任教,是因为她以为这是一个种族团结的学校样本,然后,她遇到了冷漠、敌意、不...
評分“放牛班”是哪个国家的学校里都有的。“放牛班”就是差生班,只要不出事、不闯祸,把那些调皮蛋太太平平送出校门,老师就大功告成了;至于出了学校成妖还是成鬼,就不是学校的事了。可是偏偏有些老师不信这个邪,立志要拯救这些“差生”的灵魂,让他们同样成为社会的栋...
