And in the face of harsh criticism, her tolerance and courage are commendable.

In 1919, 14-year-old Huang Liushuang stepped into the film circle, and at the age of 17, she shocked the film world with a "Sea Death"; in 1936, as a third-generation immigrant, she went to China to "find her roots" and was warmly entertained by celebrities such as Gu Weijun, Mei Lanfang, Hu Die; shortly after returning to the United States, the Anti-Japanese War broke out, she shot two anti-Japanese films, and donated all the remuneration and the proceeds from the sale of private jewelry to support China's War of Resistance... On acting, on the righteousness, she is blameless. However, her family did not like her to play the role of a "degenerate woman" such as an oriental lover and a woman in the Qinglou, and some compatriots in the Republic of China also criticized her for "insulting China". Although Huang Liushuang tried to take over the role of a positive Asian woman in the later stage, she did not have much choice in the environment at that time. She has also publicly questioned: "Why are Chinese on screen almost always villains... How can we be like this? Our civilization is several times older than the civilization of the West. ”

Moreover, at that time, the U.S. film censorship regulation Hayes Code prohibited cross-racial emotional scenes on the screen, which made Huang Liushuang doomed to miss the heroine. The biggest blow of her career was the film "The Land", a remake of Pearl Buck's masterpiece and a rare positive Chinese image, she failed to win the heroine, and finally a Chinese peasant couple starred by a white actor, who later won an Oscar for the film.

It was the best of times—Huang Liushuang caught up with the golden age of Hollywood, which soared from silent films to sound color films; it was also the worst of times—the Chinese Exclusion Act prevailed for more than half a century, and Chinese women not only struggled to be protagonists, but also affected their real love lives.

As a Hollywood predecessor, Huang Liushuang will use 25 cent coins next year to meet this person in various consumption scenarios, and use her life to remind people that although the Chinese Exclusion Act has long been thrown into the garbage heap of history, discrimination against ethnicity and gender is still lurking around like a virus, waiting for opportunities such as the epidemic. Whether it is Chinese or other ethnic minorities, in order to achieve such a counterattack as "from the daughter of a washer to a Hollywood legend", it is not enough to rely on individual struggles, but also to work together to promote the process of history and create a civilized society with equal opportunities, diversity and inclusiveness.
