2143
奴隶主的“丰功伟绩”。
00:59
These memorials are a physical

谁的生命重要，谁的不重要的
01:06
and whose lives do not.
18
54667
1934
这一所谓的“事实”。
01:08
If we are going to disrupt the narrative,
19
56625
2268
如果我们要打断这个叙述，
01:10
we have to start at the origin.
20
58917
2434
我们就得回到原点。
01:13
Genocide, slavery and patriarchy

Yet New York City's Columbus Circle
has had him perched 76 feet high

然而，自 1892 年以来，纽约市的哥伦布环岛
就把 76 英尺高的哥伦布雕像
就把 76 英尺高的哥伦布雕像
01:52
next to Central Park since 1892.
31
100042
2791
安置在中央公园旁边的地方。
01:55
I started Movers and Shakers,
32
103750
2476
我成立了“行动者和颠覆者”，
01:58
a nonprofit,
33
106250
1268
一个非盈利组织，
01:59
to get the statue removed.
34
107542
2309
来移走雕像。
02:01
Movers and Shakers

02:12
In our campaign to knock
Columbus off his pedestal,

38
120875
2976
在我们推翻哥伦布的运动中，
02:15
we engaged in a visually

39
123875

我们从事的是一种视觉上
具有挑衅性的行动主义。

02:20
We created an augmented
reality installation

40
128208
2226
我们根据克里斯托弗·哥伦布的真实故事
02:22
on the true story of Christopher Columbus
41
130458
2601
制作了一个增强现实（AR）装置，
02:25
and used it to host teach-ins
in Columbus Circle and Times Square.
in Columbus Circle and Times Square.
42
133083
4209
并用于哥伦布广场和时代广场举办讲座。
02:30
Many see the controversy around the statue
43
138333
2810
许多人认为，围绕这座雕像的争议
02:33
as tension between
the Italian-American community
the Italian-American community
44
141167
3476
反映了意大利裔美国人社区
02:36
and the indigenous community.
45
144667
2059
和土著社区之间的紧张关系。
02:38
The reality is that most black people
are here in this country
are here in this country
46
146750
4476
事实是正由于克里斯托弗·哥伦布
02:43
as a result of the atrocities
47
151250
1893
发动的暴行，
02:45
that were kicked off
by Christopher Columbus.
by Christopher Columbus.
48
153167
2875
大多数黑人才被踢到这个国家。
02:48
So we ended up holding
a slave auction in Union Square
a slave auction in Union Square
49
156667
4476
因此，我们最终在联合广场
举行了一场奴隶拍卖，
举行了一场奴隶拍卖，
02:53
to tie into the genesis
of the transatlantic slave trade.
of the transatlantic slave trade.
50
161167
3333
以联系跨大西洋奴隶贸易的起源。
02:57
I ran the New York City Marathon in chains
to spread awareness to this issue.
to spread awareness to this issue.
51
165667
4833
我带着锁链参加了纽约市马拉松赛，
以让人们意识到这个问题。
以让人们意识到这个问题。
03:03
I was also arrested in Giants Stadium
for hosting a slave reenactment
for hosting a slave reenactment
52
171875
3851
我还因为在巨人队的主场揭幕战上
03:07
at their football team's home opener.
53
175750
2125
举办奴隶表演而被捕。
03:11
We gave it everything that we had,
54
179833
3310
我们付出了我们所有的一切，
03:15
but in the end,
55
183167
1351
但最终，
03:16
New York City decided to keep the statue,
56
184542
2559
纽约决定保持这个雕像，
03:19
and New York State unanimously voted
to make it a landmark.
to make it a landmark.
57
187125
3976
并且纽约州一致投票
将其定为地标性建筑。
将其定为地标性建筑。
03:23
The news was devastating,
58
191125
2684
这个消息是个毁灭性打击，
03:25
but it opened up another door.
59
193833
2018
但也开启了另一扇门。
03:27
We realized that with augmented reality
60
195875
2434
我们意识到使用虚拟增强技术，
03:30
you don't need permission
from the government
from the government
61
198333
2310
你不需要获得政府到许可
03:32
to put up a monument
or to make a statement.
or to make a statement.
62
200667
3351
就可以设立纪念碑或发表声明。
03:36
You can just do it.
63
204042
1809
你就可以这样做。
03:37
So New York City right now
64
205875
1309
所以现在纽约公众场所
03:39
currently has more than 150 statues
of men and six of women
of men and six of women
65
207208
4435
有超过 150 座被认为
03:43
and currently acknowledges slaveholders
in public spaces as well.
in public spaces as well.
66
211667
3434
男性和女性奴隶主的雕像。
03:47
So we decided, why not just put up
a bunch of AR monuments
a bunch of AR monuments
67
215125
2893
所以我们决定，为什么不干脆在城市里
03:50
of women and people of color
throughout the city?
throughout the city?
68
218042
2291
建一堆女性和有色人种的 AR 纪念碑？
03:53
Typically, monuments are created
69
221333
1976
通常，纪念碑
03:55
to commemorate the achievements
of the deceased,
of the deceased,
70
223333
3351
是为纪念死者的成就而建立的，
03:58
but with augmented reality,
we can reroute the rules.
we can reroute the rules.
71
226708
3000
但借助增强现实，我们可以改变规则。
04:02
We started with sports.
72
230458
1976
我们从体育开始。
04:04
Colin Kaepernick.
73
232458
1601
科林·卡普尼克。
04:06
He was the starting quarterback
of the San Francisco 49ers,
of the San Francisco 49ers,
74
234083
3351
他是旧金山 49 人队的首发四分卫，
04:09
and he wanted to use his platform
75
237458
1601
他想使用他的平台
04:11
to highlight the injustice
of systemic racism.
of systemic racism.
76
239083
2893
来强调不公正的全面性种族主义。
04:14
So he consulted a Green Beret
on the most respectful way to do this,
on the most respectful way to do this,
77
242000
3976
于是他咨询了一个绿色贝雷帽
用最尊重的方式来做到这个，
用最尊重的方式来做到这个，
04:18
and he decided to take a knee
during the national anthem.
during the national anthem.
78
246000
3309
他决定在国歌期间跪下。
04:21
He lost his contract with the 49ers,
79
249333
2310
他失去了旧金山 49 人队的合约，
04:23
he was blackballed by every NFL owner,
80
251667
2767
他甚至被 NFL 球队拉入黑名单，
04:26
he was criticized by millions
81
254458
2226
被数百人谴责，
04:28
and even the president
of the United States
of the United States
82
256708
2059
甚至连美国总统
04:30
decided to insult him.
83
258791
1768
都决定侮辱他。
04:32
It may be decades before Colin Kaepernick
is adequately respected for his courage,
is adequately respected for his courage,
84
260583
6643
科林·卡普尼克的勇气可能要
几十年后才能得到尊重，
几十年后才能得到尊重，
04:39
so our team decided to do this.
85
267250
2042
所以我们团队打算这样做。
04:42
Now anyone that walks by Trump Tower
can see Colin Kaepernick take a knee
can see Colin Kaepernick take a knee
86
270458
5310
现在每个路过特朗普大厦的人
都可以用 AR 看到科林·卡普尼克
都可以用 AR 看到科林·卡普尼克
04:47
in augmented reality,
87
275792
1559
下跪的画面，
04:49
and there's nothing they can do about it.
88
277375
1976
并且他们对此无能为力。
04:51
(Laughter)
89
279375
1893
（笑声）
04:53
Representation matters.
90
281292
2642
代表很重要。
04:55
Serena Williams proved to the world
91
283958
2601
塞雷娜·威廉姆斯向全世界证明
04:58
that a black girl from Compton
can dominate a sport

92
286583
