布克·T·华盛顿:力争上游·摘录 225

布克·T·华盛顿《力争上游》· Up from Slavery · 领导

I tried to emphasize the fact that while the Negro should not be deprived by unfair means of the franchise, political agitation alone would not save him, and that back of the ballot he must have property, industry, skill, economy, intelligence, and character, and that no race without these elements could permanently succeed. I said that in granting the appropriation Congress could do something that would prove to be of real and lasting value to both races, and that it was the first great opportunity of the kind that had been presented since the close of the Civil War.

白话

布克·T·华盛顿强调,黑人不应被不公平地剥夺选举权,但仅靠政治鼓动救不了他们。在选票背后,必须拥有财产、勤奋、技能、节俭、智慧和品格;没有这些,任何种族都无法长久成功。他告诉国会,拨款能带来对两个种族都有真正持久价值的东西,这是内战后第一个这样的重大机会。

上下文

布克·T·华盛顿是19世纪末美国黑人教育家,主张通过职业教育提升黑人地位。这是他在争取国会支持亚特兰大博览会黑人展馆拨款时的发言。

今日一问

今天,我们是否也常把权利和机会当成终点,而忽略了支撑它们的实际能力与品格?
