I'm bear clan from Couchiching First Nation,

I was born under the Maple Sapping Moon in International Falls, Minnesota,

and I'm happy to be here with all of you.

Trauma of indigenous peoples has trickled through the generations.

Centuries of oppression, of isolation, of invisibility,

原住民族的創傷 已經流淌過了數個世代，

have led to a muddled understanding of who we are today.

幾世紀以來的壓迫、孤立與忽視，

In 2017, we face this mixture of Indians in headdresses

到了 2017 年， 我們看到了印第安頭飾的混用

but also the drunk sitting on a porch somewhere you never heard of,

living off government handouts and casino money.

但同時，在你從未聽過的地方， 也有人醉倒在門廊上，

靠著政府補助和賭博賺來的錢維生。

It's very, very difficult to be in these shoes,

這是一件非常、非常棘手的事。

to stand here as a product of genocide survival, of genocide.

這對我而言非常艱難， 尤其身為原住民族的一份子、

We face this constant barrage of unteaching the accepted narrative.

身為種族屠殺倖存者的產物， 站在這裡，很不容易。

87 percent of references in textbooks, children's textbooks, to Native Americans

我們不斷受到認知被扭曲的轟炸，

教科書、學童用書中 提及美國原住民族的部分，

Only half of the US states mention more than a single tribe,

and just four states mention the boarding-school era,

美國各州中，只有一半 會提及一個以上的部落；

the era that was responsible for my grandmother

只有四個州，提及寄宿學校時代，

having their language and culture beaten out of them.

被迫失去了他們的語言及文化。

it's a lot easier to run over your rights.

當你不被當成真正的人來看待，

Four years ago, I moved to Washington, DC.

他們要踐踏你的權利， 就變得非常容易。

I had finished school and I was there to be a tribal attorney

and represent tribes across the nation, representing on the Hill,

那時，我完成學業， 到那裡去當部落律師，

and I saw immediately why racist imagery matters.

代表全國各地的部落， 在國會山莊擔任代表，

I moved there during football season, of all times.

我隨即明白為何種族意象事關重大。

And so it was the daily slew of Indian heads

我搬到那裡時，正值美式足球季，

每天都有很多印第安人的頭， （註：華盛頓是紅人隊）

到處充斥著「紅皮膚」這個辱稱。

and trying to lobby for hospitals, for funding for schools,

為醫院、學校資金、基礎政府服務

that Indian people were incapable of managing our own affairs.

印第安人沒有能力管理自己的事務。

And last August, I went out to Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.

去年八月，我去了立巖地區 蘇族印第安原住民保留地，

There were youth that had run 2,000 miles from Cannonball, North Dakota

all the way out to Washington, DC, with a message for President Obama:

有年輕人跑了兩千英哩路， 從坎農博爾、北達科他，

一路到華盛頓特區， 將訊息帶給歐巴馬總統：

and so did thousands of people around the world.

Why did this resonate with so many people?

全世界數以千計的人也聽見了。

Indigenous peoples are impacted first and worst by climate change.

為什麼這麼多人會對此產生共鳴？

We are impacted first and worst by the fossil-fuel industry.

原住民族是最先受到氣候變遷影響， 且影響最大的族群；

Here in Louisiana, the first US climate change refugees exist.

我們是最先受到化石燃料產業影響， 且影響最大的族群。

美國首批氣候變遷難民 就在這裡，路易斯安那州，

being pushed off their homelands from rising sea levels.

因為海平面上升，被迫離開家園；

And with these projects comes a slew of human costs

這就是我們的現實、我們的生活。

這些計畫帶來了大量的人力成本，

thousands of workers influxing to build these pipelines,

數以千計的工人湧入， 來建造這些管線，

bringing crime and sex trafficking and violence with them.

Missing and murdered indigenous women in Canada

他們同時帶來了犯罪、 性交易、暴力。

has become so significant it's spawned a movement

在加拿大，失蹤、 遭受謀殺的原住民族女性

實在太多了， 人們因此發起抗議

Thousands of Native women who have disappeared,

有數以千計的原住民族女性失蹤、

And here in the US, we don't even track that.

We are instead left with an understanding

在美國，我們甚至不會去追究，

that our Supreme Court, the United States Supreme Court,

stripped us, in 1978, of the right to prosecute at the same rate

我們的最高法院，美國最高法院，

So as a non-Native person you can walk onto a reservation and rape someone

讓我們無法和美國其他地方 有一樣的起訴率。

因此，一個非原住民者 大可以到保留區裡、強暴某個人，

of prosecutorial ability as everywhere else,

and the Federal Government declines these cases 40 percent of the time.

且 40% 的案子會被聯邦政府拒絕；

But in Standing Rock, you could feel the energy in the air.

但在立巖地區， 你可以感覺到空氣中的能量，

People were standing and saying, "No more.

We will put our bodies in front of the machines

And thousands of allies came to stand with us from around the world.

It was incredible, it was incredible to stand together, united as one.

全世界數以千計的盟友 前來和我們並肩作戰，

那很不可思議。站在一起、 同心協力的感覺，很不可思議。

I saw Natives being chased on horseback by police officers shooting at them,

我看到原住民族人 騎在馬背上，被警察開槍追趕。

I myself was put into a dog kennel when I was arrested.

But funny story, actually, of being put into a dog kennel.

我自己被逮捕的時候， 被丟到狗籠裡，

So we're in this big wire kennel with all these people,

但其實在狗籠裡的故事還蠻好笑的，
