With respect to the statements by the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers -- for our Malaysian audience,

各位馬來西亞觀眾，關於洛杉磯快艇隊老闆的言論。

this is a sports team, basketball team in the United States.

基礎被動語態

The owner is reported to have said some incredibly offensive racist statements that were published.

媒體報導說快艇隊的老闆在近日有說過一些極度冒犯種族的言論。

I don't think I have to interpret those statements for you; they kind of speak for themselves.

我並不覺得我需要針對此言論多加說明

When people -- when ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance you don't really have to do anything,

當無知的人們想要表現他們的無知，你真的不用做些甚麼。

you just let them talk. And that's what happened here.

你就讓他們說。而這就是這事情會發生的原因。

I am confident that the NBA Commissioner, Adam Silver, a good man, will address this.

Obviously, the NBA is a league that is beloved by fans all across the country.

顯然地，NBA聯盟被來自各地國家的粉絲寵愛著。

It's got an awful lot of African American players. It's steeped in African American culture.

這對很多非裔美國籍的球員來說是一件很糟糕的事。這也是對非洲美國文化的一種汙辱。

I will make just one larger comment about this.

我將會對此事做出較宏觀的評論

美國持續地處理歧視問題，像是種族問題、奴隸制度及隔離政策仍然存在於美國社會中。

We've made enormous strides, but you're going to continue to see this percolate up every so often.

我們已經盡了很大的努力，然而，這一類的言論仍然會透過各種團體間的歧視而持續的散播。

And I think that we just have to be clear and steady in denouncing it, teaching our children differently,

並且我想只要明確且持續地譴責它(歧視事件)，教導我們教導我們孩子以不同的角度看此事

but also remaining hopeful that part of why some statements like this stand out so much

但是持續地抱持希望，有越來越多的譴責聲音

is because there had been -- there has been this shift in how we view ourselves.

就是因為對自己的檢視有了改變。

And like Malaysia, we constantly have to be on guard against racial attitudes that divide us rather than embracing our diversity as a strength.

我們要不斷地警惕、對抗那經由對種族的負面態度去分化我們對比包容不同意見來得更有力量。

are committed to wrestling with those issues as well.

也會有想要了解這些事情(歧視事件)的意願

We have to make sure that we stay on top of it -- and we will.

我們必須確定我們對此事全盤了解，而我們會的。
