演讲简介：
在这个演讲里，人权律师布莱恩·史蒂文森通过讲述他与其外婆以及与帕克斯夫人之间的故事，告诉了大家一些美国司法系统中的骇人真相。演讲从讲述大规模的的种族不平等待遇开始：三分之一美国黑人男性有被监禁的经历。这些问题源于美国一段不被重视的历史，它们从未像今天这样被坦诚地，有洞察力地和有说服力地公开讨论过。

- Well I believe that our identity is at risk.
- 我相信这说明我们有定位危机。
- That when we actually don't care about these difficult things,
- 当我们对这些棘手的问题置之不顾时，
- the positive and wonderful things are nonetheless implicated.
- 我们却仍旧对那些正面的好事儿一如既往地关心。
- We love innovation. We love technology. We love creativity. We love entertainment.
- 我们爱极了革新。我们爱技术。我们爱创造。我们爱娱乐。
- But ultimately, those realities are shadowed by suffering, abuse, degradation, marginalization.
- 但是最终，这些好的现实都被痛苦煎熬，滥用职权，剥夺人权，边缘化，蒙上了阴影。
- And for me, it becomes necessary to integrate the two.
- 对于我来说两者合一是必要的。
- Because ultimately we are talking about a need to be more hopeful,
- 因为最终我们谈的是怎么更有希望，
- more committed, more dedicated to the basic challenges of living in a complex world.
- 更有保障，更有贡献，来应付生活在这个复杂社会中的种种挑战。
- And for me that means spending time thinking and talking about the poor, the disadvantaged, those who will never get to TED.
- 对于我来说，那需要花时间思考和讨论穷人阶层，弱势群体，那些永远也没机会来TED的人。
- But thinking about them in a way that is integrated in our own lives.
- 不过想着其实在某种意义上是把他们融合进我们的生活里。

- They come from the ideas in our mind that are also fueled by some conviction in our heart.
- 它们是从我们脑子里的智慧和我们心里的信念相结合的产物。
- And it's that mind-heart connection that I believe compels us to not just be attentive to all the bright and dazzly things, but also the dark and difficult things.
- 这个灵智合一，我相信会驱使我们不仅仅是对那些光明的事情更上心，同时对那些黑暗面和棘手的事情也是一样。
- Vaclav Havel, the great Czech leader, talked about this.
- 韦克拉乌·哈韦尔，这位捷克的杰出领导人，谈过这个问题。
- He said, "When we were in Eastern Europe and dealing with oppression, we wanted all kinds of things,
- 他说：“当我们在东欧解决强制压迫的问题时，我们希望能成就很多，
- but mostly what we needed was hope, an orientation of the spirit, a willingness to sometimes be in hopeless places and be a witness."
