宗教造成的分裂正在加深，我們越來越懷疑彼此有什麼共同點。我們要如何以看得見的方式勇敢站在一起？娜比拉艾莉海受到合作伙伴亞茲曼尼阿伯利達的啟發，與同事創造了「信仰的顏色」，這是一個社會實踐的藝術計畫，要將不同信仰的人，透過將彼此的宗教場所漆成黃色的方式，來結合在一起，展現團結。艾莉海說：「我們已證明了人類家庭可以聚在一起並傳遞出訊息，這訊息遠比那些想傷害我們的聲音還要更明亮、更強大。」

We live in a time of fear,

2000
我們身在一個恐懼的時代，
00:15
and our response to fear
can either be to contract

而我們對恐懼的反應，
可能是縮起來，
可能是縮起來，
00:19
and attempt to guard ourselves

並試圖去保衛我們自己，
00:22
or to extend ourselves,
hold on to each other,
hold on to each other,
3

或是展開我們自己，彼此一起堅守，
00:25
and face our fears together.
4
13160
1760
共同面對我們的恐懼。
00:28
What is your instinct?
5
16160
1440
你的直覺是什麼？
00:30
What do you see more of in the world?
6
18680
1920
看世界時你比較會看到什麼？
00:34
The problem with the first approach
7
22240
1976
第一種方式的問題是，
00:36
is that in our mounting isolation,
8
24240
2336
我們與他人日漸疏離時，
00:38
we divide ourselves from others.
9
26600
2616
將自己與他人分隔開來。
00:41
Our sense of isolation grows,
10
29240
2416
我們的孤立感會增加，
00:43
because our imagination
goes into overdrive
goes into overdrive
11
31680
2136
因為我們的想像力被過度使用，
00:45
about the people and the spaces
that we no longer engage with.
that we no longer engage with.
12
33840
3536
用到我們不再有交集的人與空間上。
00:49
Our sense of otherness grows,
and we lose empathy.
and we lose empathy.
13
37400
3440
我們的相異感會增加，
我們會失去同理心。
我們會失去同理心。
00:54
Today I'm going to tell you
about a group of people

2416
今天我來跟各位談的，是一群人，
00:57
that took the global
challenge of terrorism

15
45000
2136
他們接受了恐怖主義的全球挑戰，
00:59
and began creating spaces
where strangers connect in solidarity.
where strangers connect in solidarity.
16
47160
4680
開始創造一些空間，讓陌生人
能互相連結而團結在一起。
能互相連結而團結在一起。
01:04
My own obsession with what I see
as irrational divisions began as a child.

17

我從小就迷上了
我眼中的非理性分裂。

01:09
As a fourth-generation
Kenyan Muslim of Indian origin,

18
57840

我有著印度血統，
是肯亞穆斯林的第四代，
是肯亞穆斯林的第四代，
01:14
it bothered me that in four generations,
19
62040
1936
讓我煩惱的是，在這四個世代，
01:16
there wasn't a single
marriage in my family
marriage in my family
20
64000
2056
我家庭中的每一段婚姻，
01:18
outside of my small religious community.
21
66080
2120
都侷限在我的小小宗教社區內。
01:20
And I wondered what that was about.
22
68880
1680
我很好奇那是怎麼回事。
01:23
Was it fear?
23
71600
1776
是因為恐懼嗎？
01:25
Was it racism?
24
73400
1320
是因為種族主義嗎？
01:28
Was it cultural preservation?
25
76240
1560
是為了文化保存嗎？
01:30
Did it have something
to do with colonialism?
to do with colonialism?
26
78760
2096
和殖民主義有關嗎？
01:34
Certainly, we didn't share a lot
of the same public spaces with others.
of the same public spaces with others.
27
82240
3880
顯然，我們並沒有和其他人
共用許多公共空間。
共用許多公共空間。
01:39
These divisions bothered me deeply,
and they drove my career choices.
and they drove my career choices.
28
87680
3560
這些分裂深深困擾著我，
影響了我對職涯的選擇。

When I was 20, the US embassies
in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed.

我二十歲時，在肯亞與坦尚尼亞的
美國大使館遭到炸彈攻擊。

01:51
A year later, I was on my way
to the Middle East
to the Middle East
30
99080
2256
一年後，我前往中東，
01:53
to study conflict resolution.
31
101360
1480
去研究衝突排解。
01:55
And then from that point on,
32
103880
1376
從那個時點開始，
01:57
it wasn't very hard for me
to find insecure environments to work in,
to find insecure environments to work in,
33
105280
3536
對我來說，要找到
不安全的工作環境並不難，
不安全的工作環境並不難，
02:00
because the world was quickly shifting
34
108840
1856
因為世界很快就轉變進入了
02:02
in what we now know
as the time of terrorism.
as the time of terrorism.
35
110720
2320
我們現在所謂的恐怖主義時代。
02:05
I was in Washington, DC
when 9/11 happened,

36
113920
3256
當九一一事件發生時，
我人在華盛頓特區，
我人在華盛頓特區，
02:09
and then I moved back home
to Kenya to work with refugees
to Kenya to work with refugees
37
117200
3456
接著我搬回肯亞的家，去協助難民，
02:12
and then later worked in Pakistan
38
120680
2136
之後又到巴基斯坦去工作，
02:14
and in Afghanistan.
39
122840
1480
再到阿富汗。
02:18
In all of these places, what I noticed
40
126120
2656
在所有這些地方，我注意到，
02:20
was how important physical spaces are
41
128800
2536
實體空間很重要，
02:23
to making us feel safe
42
131360
2376
能讓我們感到安全、
02:25
and well
43
133760
1296
安好、
02:27
and like we belong.
44
135080
1200
好像有所歸屬。
02:29
In 2013, I came back home
to Nairobi from Afghanistan.
to Nairobi from Afghanistan.
45
137760
3520
2013 年，我從阿富汗
回到位在奈洛比的家，
回到位在奈洛比的家，
02:34
Al-Shabaab operatives
had besieged Westgate shopping center,
had besieged Westgate shopping center,
46
142640
3136
青年軍包圍了 Westgate 購物中心，
02:37
killing 67 people
in a day of utter horror.
in a day of utter horror.
47
145800
4000
在這極恐怖的一天內
就殺害了 67 人。
就殺害了 67 人。
02:44
Soon after that,
48
152040
1896
那之後沒多久，
02:45
I could see how Nairobi
was beginning to change,
was beginning to change,
49
153960
2456
我可以看見奈洛比如何開始改變，
02:48
and it was beginning to feel
more like the fear and terror-weary
more like the fear and terror-weary
50
156440
4936
開始厭倦了恐懼和恐怖，
02:53
and war-torn cities that I had worked in.
51
161400
2520
就像那些我曾經工作過的
被戰爭蹂躪的城市那樣。
被戰爭蹂躪的城市那樣。
02:57
And Nairobi continues to grow
in fear-driven ways.
in fear-driven ways.
52
165240
3320
奈洛比持續成長，
朝向恐懼的方向成長。
朝向恐懼的方向成長。
03:01
We see more walls, more barriers,
53
169320
2536
我們看到更多的牆、更多的路障、
03:03
more security.
54
171880
1240
更多的保安。
03:06
And like other parts of the world,
55
174000
1656
如同世界的其他地方，
03:07
we are experiencing
an erosion of human connection.
an erosion of human connection.
56
175680
4160
我們正在經歷人類連結的侵蝕。
03:12
Divisions along
religious lines are deepening,
religious lines are deepening,
57
180320
3096
因為宗教而產生的分裂正在加深，
03:15
and we're doubting more and more
how much we have in common.
how much we have in common.
58
183440
3520
我們越來越懷疑，
到底彼此間有多少共同點。
到底彼此間有多少共同點。
03:20
We are at a pivotal time
59
188600
1296
我們處在關鍵時刻，
03:21
when we need to restore
our confidence in humanity
our confidence in humanity
60
189920
3536
此時我們需要恢復對人性的信心，
03:25
and stand boldly and visibly together.
61
193480
2880
勇敢地站出來團結在一起。
03:29
So in 2014, I brought together
a group of people in Nairobi
a group of people in Nairobi
62
197880
2776
所以，2014 年，
我在奈洛比召集了一群人，
我在奈洛比召集了一群人，
03:32
to figure out what to do:
63
200680
1240
思考該怎麼做：
03:34
public intellectuals, diplomats,
artists, development workers.
artists, development workers.
64
202680
4960
團隊成員有公共知識份子、
外交官、藝術家、發展工作者。
外交官、藝術家、發展工作者。
03:40
And the group articulated
our challenge as threefold:
our challenge as threefold:
65
208520
3280
這個團體明確表達出，
我們的挑戰有三部份：
我們的挑戰有三部份：
03:45
one, to reclaim the city
from the narrative of terrorism
from the narrative of terrorism
66
213000
3936
第一，將城市從恐怖主義手中奪回，
03:48
and back into the hands
of the people that live there;
of the people that live there;
67
216960
3216
交還到當地住民的手中。
03:52
two, introduce a language
beyond race, tribe or religion
beyond race, tribe or religion
68
220200
4056
第二，引介一種跨越種族、
部落或宗教的語言，
部落或宗教的語言，
03:56
that would help us
transcend our differences;
transcend our differences;
69
224280
3376
來協助我們超越歧異；
03:59
and three, provide a gesture
that would help restore empathy
that would help restore empathy
70
227680
4536
第三，提出一種表示，
來協助恢復共鳴、
來協助恢復共鳴、
04:04
and conversation and trust.
71
232240
2360
交流，以及信任。
04:08
One of the people in this group
was an artist and architect,
was an artist and architect,
72
236520
2976
我們團隊中有人是藝術家兼建築師，
04:11
Yazmany Arboleda.
73
239520
1680
他叫亞茲曼尼阿伯利達。
04:14
He and I have collaborated
in other parts of the world
in other parts of the world
74
242040
2776
他與我在世界各地
04:16
over many years.
75
244840
1576
合作了許多年。
04:18
He has a history
76
246440
1536
他的過去事蹟是
04:20
of disrupting urban environments
77
248000
2536
擾亂城市環境，
讓陌生人能以一種
不可思議的美好方式連結。
不可思議的美好方式連結。
04:22
and making strangers connect
78
250560
1656
04:24
in incredible, beautiful
and spectacular ways.
and spectacular ways.
79
252240
3160
他有一個點子。
04:28
He had an idea.
80
256880
1736
04:30
The idea was to unite people
of different faiths
of different faiths
81
258640
3136
這個點子是將
不同信仰的人團結起來，
不同信仰的人團結起來，
04:33
by getting them to paint
each other's houses of worship,
each other's houses of worship,
82
261800
3176
做法是為他們彼此的宗教場所上色，
04:37
mosques, temples, synagogues, churches,
83
265000
3696
包括清真寺、廟宇、
猶太教堂、教堂，
猶太教堂、教堂，
04:40
paint them yellow
84
268720
1936
以愛之名，
04:42
in the name of love.
85
270680
1360
將它們塗上黃色。
04:46
By focusing on icons of faith,
86
274160
3336
透過把焦點放在信仰的象徵上，
04:49
we would get people to reexamine
the true essence of their faith,
the true essence of their faith,
87
277520
4056
我們能夠讓人們重新檢視
他們信仰的真實本質，
他們信仰的真實本質，
04:53
the common belief that we share
in kindness, generosity and friendship.
in kindness, generosity and friendship.
88
281600
3880
也就是我們對於仁慈、
寬宏、友情的共同信念。
寬宏、友情的共同信念。
04:58
By creating pathways
between houses of worship
between houses of worship
89
286800
3016
我們在一個鄰坊內的宗教場所之間
05:01
within one neighborhood,
90
289840
1616
建立連結路徑，
05:03
we would create islands of stability
91
291480
1896
藉此創造出了穩定的島嶼
05:05
and networks of people
92
293400
1416
以及人的網路，
05:06
that could withstand threats.
93
294840
2520
且它們都能夠承受威脅。
05:10
And neighbors, by picking up
a paintbrush with other neighbors,
a paintbrush with other neighbors,
94
298160
3520
而各個鄰居一同拿起刷子，
05:14
would engage not just with their heads
95
302720
2016
他們不只是用到頭腦，
05:16
but with their hands
and with their hearts.
and with their hearts.
96
304760
2320
還會運用雙手及他們的心。
05:20
And the painted buildings would become
sculptures in the landscape
sculptures in the landscape
97
308320
3136
被上色的建築就會成為
地景的雕塑作品，
地景的雕塑作品，
05:23
that speak of people
from very different backgrounds
from very different backgrounds
98
311480
2656
訴說著來自非常不同背景的人們，
05:26
that stand together.
99
314160
1200
站在一起的故事。
05:29
We'd call the project "Colour in Faith."
100
317520
2000
我們稱這專案為「信仰的顏色」。
05:32
We loved the idea and we immediately
began approaching houses of worship:
began approaching houses of worship:
101
320400
4056
我們很喜歡這個點子，
馬上開始去和宗教場所接洽：
馬上開始去和宗教場所接洽：
05:36
churches, temples, mosques, synagogues.
102
324480
2776
教堂、寺廟、清真寺、猶太教堂。
05:39
Door to door, we went
to more than 60 rabbis,
to more than 60 rabbis,
103
327280
2656
我們挨家挨戶拜訪了至少六十位拉比、
05:41
imams, pastors and priests.
104
329960
2520
伊瑪目、牧師、神父。
05:45
As you can imagine,
105
333160
1456
你們應該可以想像，
05:46
bringing these communities together
106
334640
1696
恐懼遍及全球，加深了偏見，
05:48
when prejudices are reinforced
by a global pandemic of fear
by a global pandemic of fear
107
336360
3216
在這樣的情況下，要讓這些社區團結，
05:51
is not easy.
108
339600
1256
一點也不容易。
05:52
It was complicated.
109
340880
1200
它很複雜。
05:55
We were confronted
with the hierarchy of decision-making
with the hierarchy of decision-making
110
343560
2656
我們要面對宗教機構內部的決策階層。
05:58
within religious establishments.
111
346240
1680
06:00
For example, with Catholic churches,
112
348520
2496
以天主教教堂為例，
06:03
we were told that the archbishop
would have to make the decision.
would have to make the decision.
113
351040
3296
我們被告知，只有大主教
才能做這個決策。
才能做這個決策。
06:06
And so we wrote a letter
to the archbishop.
to the archbishop.
114
354360
2096
所以我們寫信給大主教。
06:08
We wrote a letter to the Vatican.
115
356480
1800
我們寫信到梵蒂岡。
06:10
We're still waiting to hear back.
116
358840
1576
我們還在等回信。
06:12
(Laughter)
117
360440
1856
（笑聲）
06:14
And with other houses of worship,
118
362320
2056
至於其他的宗教場所，
06:16
we were told that the patrons,
the people that pay for the building
the people that pay for the building
119
364400
3176
我們被告知做決策的人是出資人，
06:19
and the construction
and the painting of the buildings
and the painting of the buildings
120
367600
2536
也就是付錢建造及油漆建築的人。
06:22
would have to make a decision.
121
370160
1440
06:25
And then we came head-to-head
122
373000
1456
接著，我們要正面對抗
06:26
with the long legacy
of missionary and donor dependence
of missionary and donor dependence
123
374480
2696
長久流傳下來對於
傳教士和捐贈者的依賴，
傳教士和捐贈者的依賴，
06:29
that so impedes
unconditional civic action,
unconditional civic action,
124
377200
3296
這種依賴阻礙了無條件的公民行動，
06:32
and we learned this the hard way.
125
380520
1896
我們吃足苦頭才學到這點。
06:34
There was one community
126
382440
1576
有一個社區，
06:36
that in our repeated conversations
would keep asking us
would keep asking us
127
384040
3336
在我們不斷重覆的對談中，
會一直要求我們
會一直要求我們
06:39
to appreciate them.
128
387400
1600
要感激他們。
06:41
And so we would keep going back
129
389760
2016
所以我們就不斷回去
06:43
and telling them that we appreciate them,
130
391800
2176
告訴他們，我們很感激他們，
06:46
and of course,
131
394000
1816
當然，
06:47
if we didn't appreciate them,
we wouldn't be here.
we wouldn't be here.
132
395840
3040
若我們不感激他們，
我們就不會在這裡了。
我們就不會在這裡了。
06:53
And then we learned
painfully late in the game
painfully late in the game
133
401080
2496
在這場遊戲中，我們
很晚才很痛苦地學到，
很晚才很痛苦地學到，
06:55
that the word "appreciation"
is code for getting paid to participate.

134
403600
4560
「感激」這個詞其實是代號，
意思是要付錢才能參與。
意思是要付錢才能參與。
07:01
And so we challenged them
135
409480
1960
所以，我們就去挑戰他們，
07:04
and we asked the question,
136
412600
1816
我們問了一個問題：
07:06
"So what will it cost?
137
414440
1240
「要多少錢？
07:08
How much could we pay you?
138
416640
1600
我們要付你多少錢？
07:11
And if we pay for your faith,
is it really faith?"
is it really faith?"
139
419760
2720
若我們付錢買你的信仰，
那真的是信仰嗎？」
那真的是信仰嗎？」
07:15
We started the project
asking the question,
asking the question,
140
423840
2616
我們在開始這個計畫時問了：
07:18
"Where does your faith live?"
141
426480
2176
「你的信仰住在哪裡？」
07:20
And here we found ourselves
asking the question,
asking the question,
142
428680
2256
而我們後來卻在問這個問題：
07:22
"How much does your faith cost?"
143
430960
1720
「你的信仰要多少錢？」
07:26
But the most difficult issue
was the perceived risk of standing apart.

144
434280

145
438680
3896
我們遇到一間猶太教堂
直接了當拒絕參與，

07:34
because it feared
drawing attention to itself

146
442600
2216
因為他們害怕會吸引到注意，
07:36
and becoming a target.
147
444840
1200
進而成為箭靶。
07:39
Similarly, we had a mosque
that also feared becoming a target.

148

同樣地，我們也遇到
一間清真寺也害怕成為箭靶。

07:43
And these fears are justified.
149
451600
1880
這些恐懼是事出有因的。
07:47
And yet, there were 25 houses of worship
that pledged to participate.
