布克·T·华盛顿:力争上游·摘录 264

布克·T·华盛顿《力争上游》· Up from Slavery · 领导

Next to a company of business men, I prefer to speak to an audience of Southern people, of either race, together or taken separately. Their enthusiasm and responsiveness are a constant delight. The “amens” and “dat’s de truf” that come spontaneously from the coloured individuals are calculated to spur any speaker on to his best efforts. I think that next in order of preference I would place a college audience. It has been my privilege to deliver addresses at many of our leading colleges including Harvard, Yale, Williams, Amherst, Fisk University, the University of Pennsylvania, Wellesley, the University of Michigan, Trinity College in North Carolina, and many others.

白话

除了商界人士,华盛顿其次喜欢对南方人演讲,无论黑白、同场或分开。他们的热情回应让他愉悦,黑人听众自发喊出的“阿们”“那是真理”能激励演讲者发挥最佳水平。再次是大学听众,他曾在哈佛、耶鲁、威廉姆斯、阿默斯特、菲斯克大学、宾夕法尼亚大学、韦尔斯利、密歇根大学、北卡罗来纳三一学院等许多名校演讲。这显示他重视听众的共鸣和互动,也体现他广泛的影响力。

上下文

华盛顿在书中描述自己偏好的听众类型,反映了他与南方黑人和白人群体的紧密联系,以及他在高等教育界的声望。
