大家还记不记得ABC系列剧《实习医生格蕾》中的杰克森·艾弗里医生?近日,饰演杰克森·艾弗里医生的美国男演员杰西·威廉姆斯成为了美国网友的热点话题,原因就是他在2016年BET颁奖礼上的演讲。CNN已经把他夸上天:
The "Grey's Anatomy" star received the 2016 BET Humanitarian Award, and gave a powerful acceptance speech on race and this country.
《实习医生格蕾》这位的演员获得了2016年BET的人道主义大奖,并发表了关于种族和这个国家强有力的获奖感言。
Williams said in his acceptance speech:
威廉姆斯在获奖感言中说:
“This award is not for me. This is for the real organizers all over the country, the activists, the civil rightsattorneys, the struggling parents, the families, the teachers, the students that are realizing that a system built to divide and impoverish and destroy us cannot stand if we do."
“这个奖不是给我一个人的,而是颁给遍布全国那些真正的组织者、活动家、民权律师、苦苦奋斗的父母、家庭、老师以及学生,他们都意识到了,如果我们站起来,那么一个为了分裂,让我们贫困,摧毁我们的系统就无法运作。”
“Now this is also in particular for the black women…who have spent their lifetimes dedicated to nurturing everyone before themselves. We can and will do better for you.”
“现在,尤其对于黑人女性,她们终其一生奉献于培养他人,而后再考虑自己,我们能够,并将为你们做得更好。”
“We know that police somehow manage to de-escalate, disarm, and not kill white people every day. So what’s gonna happen is we are gonna have equal rights and justice in our own country or we will restructure their function and ours.”
