Jessica Chastain正在听,这是一个很好的开始 - 这里希望她还在学习和做

几天前,我们谈了女演员Jessica Chastain和粉丝之间的推特交流关于暴力与非暴力抗议活动,包括陷入扇斯在粉丝使用Martin Luther King Jr的个人犯罪。引用关于特定类型的白色盟友谈论的报价。昨天,她发布了一段视频,试图澄清她的意图,了解反种族主义活动和她渴望更好的服务。

在上面的视频中,Chastain谈论“听到人:”

我正在制作视频,因为我的心很重。

在过去的几天里,我在几天内学到了很多人在我国遇到的创伤。我有机会听不仅仅是说话,这真的很难表达我的感受,我的思想在Twitter上的140个字符中所以这是我的第一个视频。

我希望你们知道我听到你的声音。我希望你知道我致力于创造改革性的社会变革,我致力于拆除压迫制度。

我分享在这个国家发生的事情的悲伤。我听到你,你可能永远不会见到我,但我爱你。

It’s good to see that she’s taking in what people are saying, even if she’s not being terribly specific about what exactly she’s taking in. The other important point that she brings up that I completely agree with is that it’s “hard to express [feelings…] in 140 characters on Twitter.”

Twitter和社交媒体一般,并不是一个伟大的平台或格式,可以做任何细微差别讨论或学习一个主题,作为美国的种族压迫。什么有益于采取行动:捐赠这里。去这一反弹。支持这个组织。阅读这本书。

However, in order to be able to have specific, succinct calls to action, one first has to be clear about what exactly they want action for, or what they’re hoping to accomplish, by doing some learning on one’s own and, yes, listening, and perhaps asking for recommendations on where one should go for continuing education on a specific part of the problem.

当耶洗别的这篇文章放了它, “there’s nothing wrong with becoming more empathic [sic], but letting people know you “share in [their] sadness” with a vague and apolitical video is … not the most helpful thing a wealthy, reasonably well-respected person with a large platform could be doing. (What “social change” are you committed to? Which “systems of oppression” have made your heart so heavy?)”

很明显,她有利于非暴力抗议。老实说,我也是,我从来没有成为莫洛托夫鸡尾酒的街道或可以乘坐街头的人。但是,我非常谨慎地谈论受压迫团体的暴力反应的适当性或不恰当,因为我明白有时抗议的暴力是对没有听到的回应。

例如,当人们质疑或抱怨骚乱时,问黑人人们如何“摧毁自己的邻居”或者你有什么,我认为黑人在他们尝试安静地做事时经常被驳回这一事实抗议言论淹没,言论基本上迫使他们作为一个社区,必须捍卫自己像人类对待的权利。

人和媒体,当暴力爆发时,似乎只会真正关注。因此,骚乱始终被任何其他方式听到的人雇用。白人拥有非暴力抗议的特权,因为白人一般都听取。这只是人们在谈论抗议时需要了解的许多动态之一。不是每个人得到抗议同样的方式。

我希望把握作为一个盟友,我真的相信她试图成为一个。I also think she could stand to do a bit more listening and a bit more learning about anti-racism activism (it’s a huge, systemic problem with a lot of moving parts, and getting clear on exactly where one wants to focus their activism would be helpful: prison reform? police brutality? economic inequality? discrimination in the workplace and pay inequality? racism in education?) before she uses her platform to spread a message.

教育是活动的重要组成部分。
