我想用海倫凱勒的話
來開始這場演說，
來開始這場演說，
00:18
that great woman that we all admire.
1
6583
3060
她是位人人都景仰的女性。
00:21
And she had a statement
that is very profound,
that is very profound,
2
9667
3583
她說過一句非常深奧的話，
00:26
and this statement is
3
14333
2060
那句話就是，
00:28
that science has been able to find
cures for many evils,
cures for many evils,
4
16417
6059
科學已經能夠
為許多罪惡找到解藥，
為許多罪惡找到解藥，
00:34
but never the greatest evil
of all in human beings,
of all in human beings,
5
22500
4976
但始終無法治療人類的萬惡之首，
00:39
and that evil is apathy.
6
27500
2708
也就是冷淡。
00:43
So, we know that apathy
really costs us a lot,
really costs us a lot,
7
31792
4476
我們知道，冷淡讓我們
付出很大的代價，
付出很大的代價，
00:48
especially in our democracy.
8
36292
2434
特別是在我們的民主方面。
00:50
And when we think of why
people do not get involved,
people do not get involved,
9
38750
3434
當我們去思考為什麼
大家不願意去涉入，
大家不願意去涉入，
00:54
why they do not become activists,
10
42208
2268
為什麼大家不成為行動主義者，
00:56
it's often that people are so worn down
with their own familial responsibilities,
with their own familial responsibilities,
11
44500
5684
答案通常是，大家已經因為
自己的家庭責任而精疲力盡了，
自己的家庭責任而精疲力盡了，
01:02
and women especially.
12
50208
2268
特別是女性。
01:04
You know, women,
they have so many inhibitions.
they have so many inhibitions.
13
52500
3559
你們知道的，
女性受到好多的禁制。
女性受到好多的禁制。
01:08
Many of them have suffered
so much trauma in their lives,
so much trauma in their lives,
14
56083
3393
許多女性在一生中受到巨大的創傷，
01:11
so many aggressions in their lives.
15
59500
2226
一生中遭受好多侵犯行為。
01:13
And so it's very hard for them to realize
that they have leadership capacities.
that they have leadership capacities.
16
61750
5059
所以，她們很難知道
她們同樣擁有領導能力。
她們同樣擁有領導能力。
01:18
That they can get out there,
and they could change the world.
and they could change the world.
17
66833
2959
她們其實可以站出來，
可以改變世界。
可以改變世界。
01:22
Another thing that many women --
18
70583
2018
許多女性還有一個狀況——
01:24
we think that we have to do everything.
19
72625
2268
我們認為什麼都得由我們來做。
01:26
That we are the only ones
responsible for our families,
responsible for our families,
20
74917
3559
認為我們得要獨自
扛起我們家庭的責任，
扛起我們家庭的責任，
01:30
and it is so hard for us to delegate
21
78500
3393
我們很難授權別人來做這些事，
01:33
and just get others to help us
do the duties that we are responsible for.
do the duties that we are responsible for.
22
81917
4351
很難讓別人來協助我們
做我們負責的工作。
做我們負責的工作。
01:38
We feel embarrassed or we feel guilty.
23
86292
2517
我們會覺得丟臉或是有罪惡感。
01:40
But we know that we have
to make this happen,
to make this happen,
24
88833
2518
但我們知道，我們
必須要做到這一點，
必須要做到這一點，
01:43
because if not, we will never have time
to be able to volunteer
to be able to volunteer
25
91375
4434
如果不這樣的話，我們就
永遠不會有時間能夠自願
永遠不會有時間能夠自願
01:47
to help on these many causes
that are now facing us.
that are now facing us.
26
95833
4000
去協助達成我們現在
面對的許多目標。
面對的許多目標。
01:53
One of the areas that women
can give up a little bit of time
can give up a little bit of time
27
101333
2851
女人可以在一個領域中
放棄一點點時間，
放棄一點點時間，
01:56
and that is in shopping, OK?
28
104208
1976
那個領域就是購物。
01:58
(Laughter)
29
106208
2518
（笑聲）
02:00
And especially when we go out there
30
108750
1684
特別是當我們出門去
02:02
shopping for things
that we don't even need.
that we don't even need.
31
110458
2101
購買一堆我們根本不需要的東西。
02:04
(Laughter)
32
112583
1018
（笑聲）
02:05
You know, you never saw
a hearse with a U-Haul behind it.
a hearse with a U-Haul behind it.
33
113625
3726
你們從未見過 U-Haul 跟在靈車的後面 。
（意思是：人死後「萬般帶不去」）
（意思是：人死後「萬般帶不去」）
02:09
(Laughter)
34
117375
3018
（笑聲）
02:12
We have to live simply,
so that others can simply live.
so that others can simply live.
35
120417
3601
我們得要簡單地過日子
其他人才有日子能過。
其他人才有日子能過。
02:16
And when we think
of the kind of inheritance
of the kind of inheritance
36
124042
2309
當我們去思考有什麼遺產
02:18
that we want to leave to our children
or our grandchildren,
or our grandchildren,
37
126375
3351
是我們想要留給孩子、孫子的，
02:21
think of leaving them a legacy of justice.
38
129750
3059
想想看我們可以留給他們
「正義」這項遺產。
「正義」這項遺產。
02:24
This is a legacy
that they can not only imitate,
that they can not only imitate,
39
132833
2643
這項遺產不只是讓他們可以仿效，
02:27
but they can be proud of
for the rest of their lives.
for the rest of their lives.
40
135500
3143
他們也可以在餘生為此感到自豪。
02:30
If we leave them a lot of material goods,
all they're going to do is fight,
all they're going to do is fight,
41
138667
3976
如果我們留給他們很多實體的物品，
他們只會做一件事：打鬥，
他們只會做一件事：打鬥，
02:34
and they're going to hate each other.
42
142667
1809
且他們將會痛恨彼此。
02:36
Just remember that,
when we think about what we're doing.
when we think about what we're doing.
43
144500
3059
當我們思考我們該做什麼時，
別忘了這點。
別忘了這點。
02:39
The other thing that we have to do
to liberate our women, eventually,
to liberate our women, eventually,
44
147583
4601
若最終要解放女性，
還有一件事是我們得做的，
還有一件事是我們得做的，
02:44
so that we can do the kind
of volunteer work that we need to do
of volunteer work that we need to do
45
152208
3310
這樣我們才能去做我們
必須要做的自願性工作，
必須要做的自願性工作，
02:47
to change this world,
46
155542
1517
來改變這個世界，
02:49
is we have to have a different kind
of an education for our young women.
of an education for our young women.
47
157083
4476
這件事就是要提供
年輕女性一種不同的教育。
年輕女性一種不同的教育。
02:53
Unfortunately, in our societies
around the world,
around the world,
48
161583
3476
不幸的是，在全世界的社會中，
02:57
women are taught to be victims.
49
165083
2292
女人都被教導成為受害者。
03:00
Women are not taught that they
are going to have to defend themselves,
are going to have to defend themselves,
50
168083
3935
女人並沒有被教導
要學會保衛自己，
要學會保衛自己，
03:04
that they're going to have
to support themselves
to support themselves
51
172042
2309
沒有被教導要學會支持自己，
03:06
and they have to protect themselves.
52
174375
1893
及要學會保護自己。
03:08
Because, you know, when we
actually look at the animal kingdom,
actually look at the animal kingdom,
53
176292
2953
因為，你們知道的，
當我們真的去看動物王國，
當我們真的去看動物王國，
03:11
and we see who are the most ferocious,
the male or the female?
the male or the female?
54
179269
4374
我們看到最兇殘的
都是雄性或雌性？
都是雄性或雌性？
03:15
We know it's the female, right?
55
183667
1934
我們都知道是雌性，對吧？
03:17
So something went wrong with us at the top
of that animal kingdom as women.
of that animal kingdom as women.
56
185625
4601
所以，在動物王國最上層的
人類女性應該是出了什麼問題。
人類女性應該是出了什麼問題。
03:22
(Laughter)
57
190250
1643
（笑聲）
03:23
So I want to give you an example
of how I found my voice.
of how I found my voice.
58
191917
3351
我想要舉個例子，跟各位說明
我如何找到我的聲音。
我如何找到我的聲音。
03:27
And I was very fortunate in that,
when I was 25 years old,
when I was 25 years old,
59
195292
3559
我是很幸運的，當時我二十五歲，
03:30
I met a gentleman named Fred Ross Sr.,
60
198875
2393
我遇到了一位男士，
叫做大佛萊德羅斯，
叫做大佛萊德羅斯，
03:33
who organized a chapter of a group called
the Community Service Organization
the Community Service Organization
61
201292
4851
他組織了「社區服務組織」
這個團體的一個分會，
這個團體的一個分會，
03:38
in my hometown of Stockton, California.
62
206167
2851
位在我的家鄉，加州的史塔克頓。
03:41
This was a grassroots organization,
and I was recruited to be a volunteer.
and I was recruited to be a volunteer.
63
209042
4250
它是一個草根組織，
我被招募成為該組織的志工。
我被招募成為該組織的志工。
03:46
So, one day, while we were
sitting in the office,
sitting in the office,
64
214208
3226
有一天，當我們坐在辦公室裡，
03:49
a farm worker comes in.
65
217458
2018
有一位農工走進來。
03:51
And he's paralyzed,
he can hardly walk, he has a crutch.
he can hardly walk, he has a crutch.
66
219500
4018
他癱瘓了，他幾乎無法走路，
他帶著一根拐杖。
他帶著一根拐杖。
03:55
And he needs help.
67
223542
1309
他需要協助。
03:56
He needs someone to help him
go down to the welfare office
go down to the welfare office
68
224875
2726
他需要有人協助他去福利辦公室，
去做一項申請。
03:59
and make an application.
69
227625
1309
04:00
So, I volunteered to do that.
70
228958
2185
所以，我自願做這件事。
04:03
But when I got to the welfare office,
71
231167
2517
但，當我到了福利辦公室，
04:05
they would not let me make
an application for this gentleman.
an application for this gentleman.
72
233708
4435
他們不讓我代替這位男士申請。
04:10
So I didn't know what to do,
I was at a loss.
I was at a loss.
73
238167
2851
我不知道該如何是好，我很茫然。
04:13
So I went back to the office,
and I told Mr. Ross,
and I told Mr. Ross,
74
241042
2809
所以，我回到辦公室，
告訴羅斯先生此事：
告訴羅斯先生此事：
04:15
"They won't let me make an application."
75
243875
2518
「他們不讓我申請。」
04:18
And he said to me, very sternly,
76
246417
2517
他非常堅決地對我說：
04:20
"You go right back down
to that welfare office,
to that welfare office,
77
248958
3518
「你再回去福利辦公室，
04:24
and you demand to see a supervisor.
78
252500
2375
要求見主管。
04:27
And you demand that they
let him make an application."
let him make an application."
79
255875
3041
然後要求他們必須讓他申請。」
04:31
And I thought, "Wow, I can do that?"
80
259875
2101
我心想：「哇，能這樣啊？」
04:34
(Laughter)
81
262000
1059
（笑聲）
04:35
So I thought about it,
82
263083
1268
所以，我想了一下，
04:36
and I kind of overcame
my anxieties and my fears.
my anxieties and my fears.
83
264375
2976
算是克服了我的焦慮和恐懼。
04:39
I went down to the welfare office
and I demanded to see the supervisor.
and I demanded to see the supervisor.
84
267375
3809
我前往福利辦公室，要求見主管。
04:43
Sure enough, he came out,
85
271208
2226
當然，他出來了，
04:45
and they had to let Mr. Ruiz
make an application for welfare.
make an application for welfare.
86
273458
3351
而他們得要讓魯茲先生
完成福利的申請。
完成福利的申請。
04:48
And he got his disability
for himself and his family.
for himself and his family.
87
276833
3476
他為自己和他的家人
取得了殘障福利。
取得了殘障福利。
04:52
But that taught me a lesson.
88
280333
1685
但那教了我一課。
04:54
That taught me that I had a voice.
89
282042
2559
那教了我：我也有聲音。
04:56
Well, Mr. Ross also taught many of us
many other things, including Cesar Chavez
many other things, including Cesar Chavez
90
284625
4309
羅斯先生也教了我們很多人
很多其他的事，包括凱薩查維茲，
很多其他的事，包括凱薩查維茲，
05:00
and many other volunteers.
91
288958
1851
以及許多其他志工。
05:02
And he taught us not only
that we can make demands of people,
that we can make demands of people,
92
290833
3518
他教我們，我們不僅
可以對別人提出要求，
可以對別人提出要求，
05:06
especially our public officials.
93
294375
2559
特別是對我們的政府官員。
05:08
And this is something
we should always keep in mind:
we should always keep in mind:
94
296958
2435
我們應該永遠牢記這件事：
05:11
every public official --
guess what -- they work for us.
guess what -- they work for us.
95
299417
4142
每一位政府官員——
你猜如何——他們為我們工作。
你猜如何——他們為我們工作。
05:15
Because we pay their salaries
with out taxes.
with out taxes.
96
303583
3143
因為我們繳稅來支付他們的薪水。
05:18
And they are actually our servants.
97
306750
3226
他們其實是我們的公僕。
05:22
Some of them turn out to be leaders,
but not all of them.
but not all of them.
98
310000
2726
他們當中有些人後來成了領袖，
但並非所有人。
但並非所有人。
05:24
(Laughter)
99
312750
1059
（笑聲）
05:25
Once in a while we get
a leader out of there.
a leader out of there.
100
313833
2935
偶爾，他們之中會出一位領袖。
05:28
The other thing that Mr. Ross taught us
is that voting is extremely important.
is that voting is extremely important.
101
316792
4934
羅斯先生還教了我們另一件事，
投票是非常重要的。
投票是非常重要的。
05:33
And not just voting,
102
321750
1559
不只是投票，
05:35
but going out there
and getting other people to vote.
and getting other people to vote.
103
323333
3351
還要採取行動，讓其他人去投票。
05:38
Going door to door.
104
326708
1250
挨家挨戶拜訪。
05:40
Phone banking, talking to voters,
105
328792
2101
電話銀行，和選舉人談話，
05:42
because many voters have a lot of doubts
and they don't know how to vote.
and they don't know how to vote.
106
330917
3517
因為許多選舉人有許多疑惑，
且他們不知道要如何投票。
且他們不知道要如何投票。
05:46
And unfortunately,
107
334458
1268
不幸的是，
05:47
we know that in many countries
people are not allowed to vote
people are not allowed to vote
108
335750
3059
我們知道，在許多國家，
人民不被允許投票，
人民不被允許投票，
05:50
because we have voter suppression
in other countries,
in other countries,
109
338833
2768
因為在其他國家會打壓選舉人，
05:53
like we do here
in the United States of America.
in the United States of America.
110
341625
2268
就像我們美國這裡所做的一樣。
05:55
But the thing is, if we can
get out there as individuals
get out there as individuals
111
343917
2642
但，重點是，如果我們能夠
以個人的身分採取行動，
以個人的身分採取行動，
05:58
and talk to people,
so we can remove their apathy
so we can remove their apathy
112
346583
3518
和大家交談，來消除他們的冷淡，
06:02
and make sure that they can vote.
113
350125
2268
確保他們去投票。
06:04
So, I want to give you an example
of a woman in our foundation,
of a woman in our foundation,
114
352417
4142
讓我舉個例子，
我們的基金會有一名女子，
我們的基金會有一名女子，
06:08
the Dolores Huerta Foundation,
115
356583
1601
Dolores Huerta 基金會，
06:10
and just to show you
that sometimes people have power,
that sometimes people have power,
116
358208
3643
這個例子可以讓各位看到，
有時人們本來就擁有力量，
有時人們本來就擁有力量，
06:13
but they don't know it.
117
361875
1268
只是他們不知道。
06:15
But once they find it,
they do miraculous things.
they do miraculous things.
118
363167
2934
但一旦他們找到了這股力量，
他們就能做到驚人的事。
他們就能做到驚人的事。
06:18
So, Leticia Prado
is an immigrant from Mexico,
is an immigrant from Mexico,
119
366125
4184
所以，拉蒂夏普拉多
是來自墨西哥的移民，
是來自墨西哥的移民，
06:22
only has a sixth-grade education
120
370333
2143
只有六年級的教育程度，
06:24
and speaks very limited English.
121
372500
2684
能說的英文也很有限。
06:27
But she was very concerned
122
375208
1893
但她非常擔心，
06:29
because the children at the middle school
in their town called Weedpatch --
in their town called Weedpatch --
123
377125
5351
因為在他們的小鎮

這是加州的中央谷地——
06:36
they couldn't go out
and play in the schoolyard,
and play in the schoolyard,
125
384583
3268
他們不能出去到校園運動場玩耍，
06:39
because the air quality is so bad
126
387875
2601
因為空氣品質太差了，
06:42
in the southern part
of Kern County, California
of Kern County, California
127
390500
2559
在美國加州克恩郡的南方地區。
06:45
in our United States of America.
128
393083
2018
06:47
So she and her husband went out there,
and they passed a bond issue
and they passed a bond issue
129
395125
4768
她和她先生站出來，
他們通過了一項債券發行，
他們通過了一項債券發行，
06:51
to build a brand new,
state-of-the-art gymnasium
state-of-the-art gymnasium
130
399917
3392
來建立全新的先進體育館，
06:55
for the kids at their middle school.
131
403333
2084
供他們的中學的學生使用。
06:58
That was a big success.
132
406750
1726
那是個大成功。
07:00
Then she heard a rumor
133
408500
1601
然後，她聽到謠言，
07:02
that the principal was going to end
the breakfast program
the breakfast program
134
410125
3393
聽說校長打算要終止
農工孩童的早餐方案，
07:05
for the farm worker children,
135
413542
1476
07:07
because the principal thought
it was just too much paperwork.
it was just too much paperwork.
136
415042
3726
因為校長認為文書作業太繁重了。
07:10
So, Leticia got herself elected
to the school board.
to the school board.
137
418792
3351
所以拉蒂夏競選並被選為
學校董事會成員。
學校董事會成員。
07:14
And they kept the breakfast program,
and she got rid of the principal.
and she got rid of the principal.
138
422167
3684
他們保住了早餐方案，
還擺脫掉了那位校長。
還擺脫掉了那位校長。
07:17
(Laughter)
139
425875
2268
（笑聲）
07:20
(Applause)
140
428167
4642
（掌聲）
07:24
So there were other rumors
141
432833
1476
還有其他的謠言，
07:26
about some corruption
in the local water district.
in the local water district.
142
434333
3435
提到當地的水管區有貪腐的現象。
07:29
So, Leticia got herself elected
to the water district.
to the water district.
143
437792
2726
所以，拉蒂夏又到
水管區參選並當選。
水管區參選並當選。
07:32
Then she looked into all of the finances
of the water district
of the water district
144
440542
2934
她調查了水管區的所有財務，
07:35
and found there was 250,000 dollars
missing from their bank account.
missing from their bank account.
145
443500
5476
發現他們的銀行帳戶中
有二十五萬美金不見了。
有二十五萬美金不見了。
07:41
So, Leticia called in the grand jury,
and several arrests have been made.
and several arrests have been made.
146
449000
4601
所以，拉蒂夏打電話給大陪審團，
逮捕了好幾個人。
逮捕了好幾個人。
07:45
And this is just an example
of a woman who never went to high school,
of a woman who never went to high school,
147
453625
5268
在這個例子中的這位女子，
從來沒有上過高中，
也沒上過大學，
也沒上過大學，
07:50
never went to college,
148
458917
1267
07:52
but she found her power.
149
460208
1435
但她找到了她的力量。
07:53
And in addition, she has recruited
other people in the community
other people in the community
150
461667
3476
此外，她也招募了社區中的其他人，
07:57
to also run for public office,
151
465167
1976
請他們也去競選，
07:59
and guess what -- they've all
gotten themselves elected.
gotten themselves elected.
152
467167
2642
猜猜如何——他們全都當選了。
08:01
So, I take that Leticia really embodies
153
469833
5226
所以，我認為拉蒂夏真的實現了
08:07
something that Coretta Scott King said.
154
475083
2643
科麗塔史考特金恩說的話。
08:09
And I want to share this with you.
Coretta Scott King said,
Coretta Scott King said,
155
477750
2976
我想和各位分享，
科麗塔史考特金恩說：
科麗塔史考特金恩說：
08:12
"We will never have peace in the world
until women take power."

156
480750
3667
「在女人掌權之前，
世界永遠不會和平。」
世界永遠不會和平。」
08:17
(Applause)
157
485708
6060
（掌聲）
08:23
Now, I have amended that statement to say
158
491792
2517
我把她的話做了點修改：
08:26
that we will never have peace in the world
until feminists take power.
until feminists take power.
159
494333
4976
在女權主義者掌權之前，
世界永遠不會和平。
世界永遠不會和平。
08:31
(Laughter)
160
499333
1060
（笑聲）
08:32
Because we know
there is a difference, right?
there is a difference, right?
161
500417
2476
我們知道這兩者有差別，對吧？
08:34
Not only that, but if we want
to define what is a feminist --
to define what is a feminist --
162
502917
3892
不只如此，如果我們要
定義女權主義者——
定義女權主義者——
08:38
a person who stands up
for reproductive rights,
for reproductive rights,
163
506833
2810
一個人願意站出來，支持生育權、
08:41
for immigrants' rights,
for the environment,

164
509667
2934
支持移民者的權利、支持環境，
08:44
for LGBT rights and also
for labor unions and working people.
for labor unions and working people.
165
512625
4976
支持 LGBT 的權利，
還有勞工工會以及勞動階級。
還有勞工工會以及勞動階級。
08:49
(Applause)
166
517625
5183
（掌聲）
08:54
Which also means
that men can also be feminists.
that men can also be feminists.
167
522832
4019
意思就是，男性也可以
是女權主義者。
是女權主義者。
（掌聲）
08:58
(Applause)
168
526875
5643
09:04
So when we think of feminization,
169
532542
2309
當我們思考「女性化」時，
09:06
we should also think
of how can we feminize the policies,
of how can we feminize the policies,
170
534875
3476
我們應該也要想想我們如何
能夠將政策給女性化，
能夠將政策給女性化，
09:10
and not only of our major countries,
171
538375
2351
不只是大國，
09:12
the wealthy countries
like the United States,
like the United States,
172
540750
2101
富有的國家如美國，
09:14
but all over the world,
173
542875
1309
而是全世界，
09:16
our domestic and foreign policy.
174
544208
2226
我們的國內和外交政策。
09:18
And one of the things that we can do
to stop wars and to have peace
to stop wars and to have peace
175
546458
3810
若要阻止戰爭、追求和平，
我們能做的事之一
我們能做的事之一
09:22
is to make sure that the wealthiest
countries in the world
countries in the world
176
550292
2934
就是要確保世界上最富有的國家
09:25
also help the developing countries.
177
553250
1934
也能協助開發中國家。
09:27
Now, we did this in the past.
178
555208
1643
我們在過去會這麼做。
09:28
After World War II,
179
556875
1518
在第二次大戰之後，
09:30
when Japan and Germany
were devastated after the war,
were devastated after the war,
180
558417
3184
戰後日本和德國飽受蹂躪，
09:33
United States of America gave
many tax dollars to those two countries,
many tax dollars to those two countries,
181
561625
5393
美國把稅收的很大一部分
給了這兩個國家，
給了這兩個國家，
09:39
so that they can rebuild their economies
and rebuild their corporations.
and rebuild their corporations.
182
567042
4476
讓它們能夠重建經濟，重建企業。
09:43
And we can do that again.
183
571542
1666
我們可以再做一次這種事。
09:46
And if we can think about how
we can help these other countries.
we can help these other countries.
184
574083
3018
如果我們能夠想想，
我們能如何協助其他國家。
我們能如何協助其他國家。
09:49
And I want to give an example
185
577125
1434
我想要舉個例子，
09:50
of issues that we are facing
in the United States of America,
in the United States of America,
186
578583
2893
關於我們在美國所面臨的議題。
09:53
for instance.
187
581500
1268
舉例來說。
09:54
We know that right now
188
582792
1309
我們知道現在有許多
來自中美的難民，
來自中美的難民，
09:56
we have a lot of refugees
from Central America
from Central America
189
584125
2643
09:58
that are at the border
of the United States.
of the United States.
190
586792
2351
待在美國的邊境。
10:01
Why do people leave their homes,
191
589167
2517
人們為什麼要離開自己美麗的家？
10:03
their beautiful homes
that we go to as tourists?
that we go to as tourists?
192
591708
2435
我們還會去那些地方觀光呢。
10:06
Because they don't have
opportunities there.
opportunities there.
193
594167
2184
因為他們在那裡沒有機會。
10:08
And then we think, "Hm, bananas."
194
596375
3184
接著，我們想：「嗯，香蕉。」
10:11
How many jillions of bananas do we consume
in the United States every single day?
in the United States every single day?
195
599583
4268
在美國，我們每天會消費多少香蕉？
10:15
And throughout the world.
196
603875
1768
全世界呢？
10:17
Now, do the people in Central America
197
605667
2101
中美的人
10:19
get the profits from the bananas
that we consume?
that we consume?
198
607792
3226
是否有從我們消費的香蕉獲利？
10:23
No, they don't.
199
611042
1392
並沒有。
10:24
The profits go to corporations
from the United States of America.
from the United States of America.
200
612458
4768
利潤到了美國企業的手上。
10:29
And we think that this is wrong.
201
617250
1809
我們認為那是不對的。
10:31
Now, if the people in Central America
were to be able to get some of that money
were to be able to get some of that money
202
619083
5101
如果中美的人能夠取得
一些我們買香蕉的錢，
10:36
that we pay for bananas,
203
624208
1643
10:37
then they wouldn't have
to leave their homes.
to leave their homes.
204
625875
2101
他們就不用離開家園了。
10:40
They wouldn't have to come
as asylum seekers
as asylum seekers
205
628000
2601
他們就不用像尋求政治避難者一樣
10:42
to the borders of the United
States of America.
States of America.
206
630625
2244
來到美國的邊境了。
10:44
And then maybe, many children would not
have to be separated from their parents.
have to be separated from their parents.
207
632893
5541
也許，那時候，許多孩子
也不用和父母分離。
也不用和父母分離。
10:50
Now, we know that there are
countries in the world
countries in the world
208
638458
2726
我們知道，世界上有些國家
10:53
that actually have free education
and have free health care
and have free health care
209
641208
3851
真的提供免費的教育和健康照護，
10:57
for all of the people in their country.
210
645083
2310
全國的國民都可享用。
10:59
And that country is Cuba.
211
647417
1934
那個國家就是古巴。
11:01
Cuba has health care
for every one of their citizens,
for every one of their citizens,
212
649375
2684
古巴的所有公民都享有健康照護，
11:04
and they have a free college education
for every one of their citizens.
for every one of their citizens.
213
652083
4060
所有的公民也都能免費讀大學。
11:08
They're 11 million citizens.
214
656167
1851
他們有一千一百萬名公民。
11:10
Now, we think, if a poor country like Cuba
215
658042
3142
我們可以想想，
如果像古巴這麼貧窮的國家
如果像古巴這麼貧窮的國家
11:13
can have these kind of resources,
and we know that they're a poor country,
and we know that they're a poor country,
216
661208
4143
都能有這樣的資源，
且我們知道他們是個貧窮的國家，
且我們知道他們是個貧窮的國家，
11:17
then why can't some
of the other wealthier countries,
of the other wealthier countries,
217
665375
2559
那麼，為什麼其他更富有的國家，
11:19
like the United States of America,
218
667958
1643
像是美國，
11:21
do the same?
219
669625
1268
為什麼不能？
11:22
I think that we can make that happen.
220
670917
1809
我認為我們可以實現它。
11:24
(Applause)
221
672750
3393
（掌聲）
11:28
But we know it's not going to happen
222
676167
1767
但我們知道，它不會成真，
11:29
until we, the people
of the United States of America,
of the United States of America,
223
677958
3810
除非我們，美國人民，
11:33
and people throughout the world,
224
681792
1559
以及全世界的人民，
11:35
start making sure that they get public
officials elected to their governments
officials elected to their governments
225
683375
4851
開始確保他們選出的政府官員
11:40
that really care about the constituents,
they care about people,
they care about people,
226
688250
3893
真正在乎憲法，在乎人民，
11:44
they will commit to make sure
that the resources that they have
that the resources that they have
227
692167
3226
他們會承諾要確保他們擁有的資源
11:47
are going to be used for their citizens,
and not to be used for war.
and not to be used for war.
228
695417
4101
會被用在公民身上，
而不是用在打仗上。
而不是用在打仗上。
11:51
So, how do we make this happen?
229
699542
2392
我們要如何讓它成真？
11:53
We have to get rid of the apathy,
230
701958
1685
我們得要擺脫冷淡，
11:55
we have to get more people involved.
231
703667
1934
我們得要讓更多人參與。
11:57
We know that if we can't have
a democracy in the United States,
a democracy in the United States,
232
705625
3893
我們知道，在美國若要擁有民主，
12:01
we can't have democracies
throughout the world,
throughout the world,
233
709542
2226
在全世界若要擁有民主，
12:03
unless people participate.
234
711792
1559
就需要人民參與。
12:05
So it is imperative that all of us
get out there and we say,
get out there and we say,
235
713375
4518
所以，極重要的就是，
我們所有人都要站出來，說：
我們所有人都要站出來，說：
12:09
"Get rid of the apathy,
get off of the sidewalk,
get off of the sidewalk,
236
717917
3184
「擺脫冷淡，別再站在人行道上，
12:13
come and join the march
for peace and justice,
for peace and justice,
237
721125
2393
一起走上街加入遊行，
爭取和平和正義，
爭取和平和正義，
12:15
let's make Coretta Scott's
vision a reality,
vision a reality,
238
723542
2851
咱們來實現科麗塔史考特的遠景，
12:18
to have peace in the world."
239
726417
1601
達成世界和平。」
12:20
We recently had midterm elections
in the United States of America.
in the United States of America.
240
728042
3476
最近，美國期中選舉剛舉行。
12:23
And what did we see?
241
731542
1601
我們看見了什麼？
12:25
We saw that so many more women,
242
733167
2559
我們看到有更多更多的女性、
12:27
young people, people of color, LGBT folks,
243
735750
3101
年輕人、有色人種、LGBT 族群，
12:30
were all elected to public office.
244
738875
1934
都選上了公職。
12:32
And we know this happened -- why?
245
740833
1935
我們知道這發生了——為什麼？
12:34
Because so many women were on the march.
246
742792
2892
因為有好多女性去遊行。
12:37
We had the Women's March
in the United States.
in the United States.
247
745708
2601
在美國，我們有女性遊行。
12:40
They had the Women's Marches
all over the world.
all over the world.
248
748333
2351
在全世界都有女性遊行。
12:42
And so we now see
that we have this potential.
that we have this potential.
249
750708
3601
現在我們可以看到，
我們有這種潛力。
我們有這種潛力。
12:46
We have this potential
to get rid of the apathy.
to get rid of the apathy.
250
754333
2310
我們有潛力可以擺脫冷淡。
12:48
And if we get everyone involved,
get everyone committed,
get everyone committed,
251
756667
3684
如果我們能讓人人參與，
讓人人投入，
讓人人投入，
12:52
then, I think, we can make
Coretta Scott's vision come true.
Coretta Scott's vision come true.
252
760375
3726
那麼，我想，我們就能
實現科麗塔史考特的遠景。
實現科麗塔史考特的遠景。
12:56
So, I want to just remind everybody,
253
764125
2643
我只是想提醒大家，
12:58
throughout the world,
one of the things is,
one of the things is,
254
766792
2809
在全世界，很重要的事之一就是
13:01
we have power,
255
769625
1768
我們有力量，
13:03
poor people have power,
256
771417
1642
窮人有力量，
13:05
every citizen has power.
257
773083
1726
每位公民都有力量。
13:06
But in order to achieve
the peace that we all yearn for,
the peace that we all yearn for,
258

In 2002, she received the Puffin/Nation $100,000 prize for Creative Citizenship, which she used to establish the Dolores Huerta Foundation (DHF).
