What is a radical? It seems today that people are terrified of the term, particularly of having the label attached to them.
什么是激進(jìn)分子?如今,人們似乎害怕這個(gè)詞,特別是害怕被貼上這個(gè)標(biāo)簽。
Accusing individuals or groups of being radical often serves to silence them into submission, thereby maintaining the existing state of affairs,
指責(zé)個(gè)人或團(tuán)體激進(jìn)往往是為了讓他們保持沉默,從而維持現(xiàn)狀,
and more important, preserving the power of a select minority who are mostly wealthy white males in western society.
更重要的是,保留少數(shù)人的權(quán)力,這些人在西方社會(huì)大多是富有的白人男性。
Feminism is a perfect example of this phenomenon.
女權(quán)主義就是一個(gè)很好的例子。
The women's movement has been plagued by stereotypes, misrepresentations by the media, and accusations of man hating and radicalism.
女性運(yùn)動(dòng)一直被刻板印象、媒體的錯(cuò)誤描述、對(duì)男性的仇恨和激進(jìn)主義的指責(zé)所困擾。
When the basic foundation of feminism is simply that women deserve equal rights in all facets of life,
當(dāng)女權(quán)主義的根本依據(jù)是,女人應(yīng)在日常生活的方方面面得到平等的權(quán)利,
when faced with a threat of being labeled radical, women back down from their worthy cause and consequently participate in their own oppression.
當(dāng)面臨被貼上激進(jìn)標(biāo)簽的威脅時(shí),女性會(huì)從她們有價(jià)值的事業(yè)中妥協(xié),從而加入到對(duì)同類的壓迫中去。
It has gotten to the point that many women are afraid to call themselves feminists because of the stigma attached to the word.
它導(dǎo)致許多女性都不敢自稱是女權(quán)主義者,因?yàn)檫@個(gè)詞被污名化了。
If people refuse to be controlled and intimidated by stigmas, the stigmas lose all their power, without fear and which to feed such stigma as can only die.
如果人們拒絕被污名所控制和恐嚇,那么污名就會(huì)失去它所有的力量,沒有了恐懼,失去了養(yǎng)料,這種污名只能消亡。
To me, a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm or advocates a change in the existing state of affairs.
在我看來,激進(jìn)分子就是那些反抗常規(guī)或主張改變現(xiàn)狀的人。
On closer inspection, it becomes clear that the norm is constantly envolving and therefore is not a constant entity.
仔細(xì)觀察就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),常規(guī)是持續(xù)變化的,所以它并不是一個(gè)固定的本質(zhì)。
So why there is deviation from the present situation such a threat when the state of affairs itself is unstable and subject to relentless transformation.
那么,在事態(tài)本身還不穩(wěn)定、還在不斷變化的情況下,為什么會(huì)有這種偏離現(xiàn)狀的威脅呢?
It all goes back to maintaining the power of those who have it and preventing the rise of those who don't.
這一切都要回到維持那些有權(quán)的人的權(quán)力和阻止那些沒有權(quán)力的人崛起上。
In fact, when we look at the word radical in a historical context, nearly every figure we now hold up as a hero was considered a radical in his or her time.
事實(shí)上,當(dāng)我們把激進(jìn)分子這個(gè)詞放在歷史背景下看時(shí),幾乎我們現(xiàn)在當(dāng)做英雄的所有人在他或她的時(shí)代都被認(rèn)為是激進(jìn)分子。
Radicals are people who affect change. They are the people about whom history is written.
激進(jìn)分子是那些影響變革的人。他們是歷史書寫的對(duì)象。
Abolitionists were radicals.
廢奴主義者是激進(jìn)分子。
Civil rights activists were radicals, even the founders of our country in their fight to win independence from England were radicals.
民權(quán)活動(dòng)家是激進(jìn)分子,甚至我們國家爭取脫離英國獲得獨(dú)立的開國元?jiǎng)滓彩羌みM(jìn)分子。
Their presence in history has changed the way our society functions, mainly by shifting the balance of power that previously existed.
他們?cè)跉v史上的存在改變了我們社會(huì)的運(yùn)作方式,主要是通過改變以前存在的權(quán)力平衡。
Of course there are some radicals who have made a negative impact on humanity.
