A lot of mayors across the country have been talking about how they're going to change their cities in response to the Black Lives Matter protests.
全国许多市长一直在谈论如何改变城市，来应对“黑人生命重要”抗议活动。
But their speeches are sometimes a little confusing. Check out this one mayor I just saw. Hello.
但是他们的讲话有时候有点让人困惑，来看看我见到的一名市长，你好。
I wanted to address the people of this city that I am the mayor of. The protests have forced my staff and I to begin having a conversation.
我想对我所在城市的市民讲话，这次抗议迫使我的员工和我开始一段交谈。
The conversation is important. The conversation is necessary. And while I can't tell you at this time what that conversation is,
这次交谈很重要，这次交谈是必须的，但是目前我无法告诉你交谈的内容是什么，
I can tell you that it is a conversation. And we are having it. Our mouths will move up and down.
我能告诉你的是这是一次交谈，我们正在进行这次交谈，我们的嘴会上下运动。
Words will come out of the middle parts of our mouth, and that will form a conversation.
话语会在嘴中间的地方出来，这将形成一场交谈。
Another thing we're working on, and this can't happen overnight, is we're opening up a dialogue.
另一件我们正在做的事情是，我们在开启一段对话，它无法在夜间举行。
It will be a dialogue between myself and those listening to the dialogue.
这将是我自己和倾听这次对话的人的对话。
It will be like your words are food for our ears, which are mouths, except our mouths won't be eating food words.
好像你的言语是我们耳中的食物，那就是嘴，只是我们的嘴巴吃不了“食语”。
They'll be participating in the dialogue. We're also going to move funds around to have the resources necessary to open up an exchange of ideas.
他们将参与到对话中来，我们还会用资金来确保资源供应，从而实现想法的交流。
We're going to spend some time thinking about the ideas. Then we're going to start bouncing those ideas back and forth until we settle on one single idea.
我们还会花一些时间来考虑这些想法，随后我们将开始让这些想法来回弹跳，直到我们获得唯一一个想法。
Then I'm going to let that idea enter my mind,
之后我会让想法进入我的思维，
which will cause my fingers to write policy changes and my fingers just want to say thank you, and that they are listening.
这将导致我的手指去写改革政策，而我的手指只想说谢谢，它们会听到的。
So to summarize, we will be having a conversation, a dialogue, and the exchange of ideas.
所以总结一下，我们会有一场交谈，一场对话，和一场思想交流。
And then we're going to look towards having a conversation about what ideas we're bouncing back and forth in the dialogue.
之后我们期待有一场交谈，内容是哪些想法在对话中来回弹跳。
But until then, we want everyone to continue the conversation while I also have my own dialogue with members of my team
但直到那时，我们想要所有人继续交谈，同时我会和自己的团队有一场对话，
who are exploring both ideas and concepts. Communication is what this is. C-O-M-M...I-C...U-N-I...
他们既要探索想法又要探索概念，这就是沟通，C-O-M-M...I-C...U-N-I...。
Wow. He got out just in the nick of time before that rain came.
哦哦，他恰好在大雨来临之前走了。
