来自费城奎克的一位代表向国会递交了一份请愿书 [00:06.33]To end the African slave trade and abolish slavery
希望终止黑奴贸易 废除美国的奴隶制 [00:09.84]In all its forms
结束对黑奴的一切不公正待遇 [00:11.56]This petition was written and signed by Benjamin Franklin
这份请愿书出自美国著名人士本杰明 富兰克林之手 [00:14.55] [00:15.06]It cannot go ignored
不容忽视怠慢 [00:16.59]This comes to a vote in Congress
国会就此问题进行了投票 [00:18.52]What is the White House's position
白宫的立场是什么 [00:20.62]Secretary Jefferson you first
国务卿杰斐逊 您先来作答 [00:23.04]Tread lightly
一定要谨慎处理 [00:24.37]Sir
明白 [00:25.35]The constitution clearly states
宪法中明确规定 [00:26.98]That the states have to wait
人种问题暂维持现状 [00:28.48]Until eighteen oh eight to debate
待1808年再予商议 [00:30.65]On whether to end the slave trade
所以黑奴贸易 [00:33.05]And whether or not you want it guys
废不废除 [00:34.87]That is the final compromise we made
还是要根据最终商议的结果 [00:36.71]Sir wait
先生 您耐心等等 [00:37.42]But for a second let us say that we can legislate
我们同意 [00:39.84]Unanimous emancipation freedom reigns and yes it's great
解放黑奴 自由至上 没错 这些都是好事 [00:43.38]We cannot cure prejudice or righteous desperate hate
但我们消灭不了歧视 无法做到真正的公平 也杜绝不了人们心中的憎恶 [00:46.28]So back to Africa or do they get a separate state
要不然 把黑人都遣返回非洲 在那儿建立个殖民地？ [00:49.18] [00:49.81]In 1784 I tried to float banning slavery in the West
1784年 我在美国西部四处游走 宣扬废除奴隶制 [00:53.09]My notion didn't get a single vote
我的主张没有得到任何的响应 没人为我投票 [00:55.34]Slavery's a sin it's growing like a cancer
奴隶制是一种罪恶 是一颗社会的毒瘤 还在肆无忌惮地滋长 [00:57.83]But we can't address the question if we do not have an answer
可如果我们没有能力解决这个问题 那就只能暂时避而不谈 [01:00.94] [01:01.47]Is it my turn
到我发言了吗 [01:02.74]Good
很好 [01:03.29] [01:03.91]Plantation states are packed with promise makers
南方的种植园主们在法律面前都表现得信誓旦旦 [01:06.08]Do you realize the precious time these legislators wasted
可您真的认为这些所谓的守法公民都言出必行吗 [01:09.07]Institutionalizing slavery only multiplies our troubles
奴隶制只会为我们的国家徒增无穷的烦恼 [01:11.97]Wait till the 1800's and their population doubles
如果要等到1808年 黑奴庞大起来 再去解决这个问题 [01:15.09]You all know
对此 大家都心知肚明 [01:15.98]This is the stain on our soul and democracy
奴隶制是我们国家道义上的污点 民主制度上的瑕疵 [01:18.84]A land of the free
我们还算得上一个自由的国度吗？ [01:20.30]No it's not it's hypocrisy
不 根本不是 自由在美国已经披上了虚伪的外衣 [01:21.85]To subjugate dehumanize a race call 'em property
征服 奴役一个种族 把他们当做自己的私有财产 [01:24.95]And say that we are powerless to stop it can you not foresee
嘴里却口口声声地说着我们无力终止这一切 这不就是自欺欺人吗？ [01:28.11]Sir even you you have hundreds of slaves
先生 即使是您 名下也拥有数以百计的黑奴 [01:30.57]Whose descendants will curse our names when we're safe in our graves
等我们都安睡在坟墓后 他们的后代会恶狠狠地诅咒你我之名 [01:33.56]How will the south find labor for its businesses
南方的后人们会埋怨去哪儿找劳力来发展商业 [01:36.34]How will Thomas Jefferson find his next mistresses
托马斯 杰斐逊又该去哪儿找个女黑奴当情人 [01:39.20] [01:39.85]How dare you
你好大的胆子 [01:40.56]Yet still people follow like lemmings
我还没说完 人们总是盲目跟风 [01:42.76]All your hemming and hawing while you're hee hawing with Sally Hemings
你和你的黑奴情人在一边打情骂俏 另一边是你的奴隶在辛苦地伐木 缝缝补补 [01:45.78]That's enough
够了 [01:47.08]Well you asked how I feel
你询问我的看法 [01:48.50]I don't pretend to know the answer but the question is real

麦迪逊城 [01:55.23]Let's take this moment to establish a precedent
愿意在这方面做个表率 [01:58.06]First of all sir we won't involve you in this
总统先生 首先 这样不会影响到您 [02:00.98]Imagine this debate with all of congress it's ruinous
简直无法想象要和所有议会成员唇枪舌战 会是什么样的场景 [02:03.94]I'll reassure the South 1808 is still the year
所以 请南方种植园主们放心 原定的1808年不会变 [02:06.75]That was agreed upon
这一点已经敲定了 [02:07.67]That buys us time and assuages fear
既空出了时间 也缓和了不安 [02:10.25]I'll tell the North that on January 1st
今年的1月1日 我会在北方进行演讲 [02:12.63]Of that year we'll ban importation handling the worst
禁止进口 着手应对最糟糕的情况 [02:15.95]Once I get all this agreed upon I'll pick up a pen
如果得到一致赞成 我会执笔书文 [02:18.52]And introduce a notion never to discuss this again
保证绝不再谈论这一问题 [02:21.69]Mr President
总统先生 [02:22.42]Hamilton if we support emancipation
汉密尔顿 如果我们支持解放黑奴 [02:24.83]Every single slave owner will demand compensation
那所有的种植园主都会要求补偿 [02:27.87]And as for slandering Jefferson with talk of mistresses
