about the color purple

This film made me think about discrimination against women. I was shocked to see how cruelly women had been treated in those days.Celie was like a slave for Albert.
Compared with the case of Celie, the situation of Sofia was just the opposite. As women had been fighting against men in her family, they hadn't been treated as Celie. I thought it was so complicated society.

In addition, I became interested in Afro-American English. I noticed that there were the use of "ain't" and the deletion of the auxiliary verb like " What you doing?". To see this film, I came to want to know more about Afro-American English.
