布克·T·华盛顿《力争上游》· Up from Slavery · 领导
He pictured the Negro choosing slavery rather than extinction; recalled Crispus Attucks shedding his blood at the beginning of the American Revolution, that white Americans might be free, while black Americans remained in slavery; rehearsed the conduct of the Negroes with Jackson at New Orleans; drew a vivid and pathetic picture of the Southern slaves protecting and supporting the families of their masters while the latter were fighting to perpetuate black slavery; recounted the bravery of coloured troops at Port Hudson and Forts Wagner and Pillow, and praised the heroism of the black regiments that stormed El Caney and Santiago to give freedom to the enslaved people of Cuba, forgetting, for the time being, the unjust discrimination that law and custom make against them in their own country.

白话
演讲者描绘黑人宁可选择奴役也不愿灭绝；提到克里斯普斯·阿塔克斯在美国革命开端流血，为白人争自由，黑人却仍为奴；讲述新奥尔良战役中黑人与杰克逊并肩作战；生动而沉痛地写南方奴隶在主人在前线维护奴隶制时，保护支撑主人家属；还列举黑人士兵在波特哈德森、瓦格纳堡、皮洛堡的勇敢，并赞扬攻下埃尔卡内和圣地亚哥、为古巴被奴役者争自由的黑人军团——暂时忘了他们自己国家里法律和习俗对他们的不公。
上下文
这是华盛顿引述的演讲内容，回顾黑人在美国历次战争中的贡献，同时点出他们回国后仍受歧视。
今日一问
当一个人为国家付出后仍遭不公，社会该如何记住并纠正这种落差？
