《唐人街大奋斗（Big Fight in Little Chinatown）》：当一条街成了一面镜子
文｜一呼 我观看《唐人街大奋斗（Big Fight in Little Chinatown）》的时候，心中始终浮现一个画面：一条街道，在清晨的阳光中缓缓苏醒，油纸灯笼微晃，铺子门前老人们互道早安。这样的画面也许熟悉，也许遥远，却无论如何，都不该被悄然抹去。 这部纪录片并不讲述什么惊心动魄的故事。它的叙述是缓慢的、克制的，甚至是“日常”的。但正是在这些日常里，它揭示出一场深刻的抗争：不是为了反对改变本身，而是反对那种没有对话、忽视在地生命的改变。

没有补贴，还值得装太阳能吗？
——在政策退场的前夜，重新审视我们的能源选择 三十年来，太阳能技术一路走来，从昂贵小众的象征性环保行为，变成如今不少人考虑的实用投资选择。而这一切背后，有一只推力极大的“看得见的手”——联邦补贴。 当你决定在屋顶装上一排排光伏板时，很可能不是因为你突然有了环保觉悟，而是因为税务顾问提醒你：“你可以少交几千块税。” 但现在问题来了。如果这些补贴被取消了呢？太阳能，还值得吗？
