When we think about this notion "e pluribus unum" --

它是個相當奇怪的觀念，對吧？

I mean, with all different races and cultures of people,

我是說，有各種不同種族和文化的人，

I want to share with you today this idea of "e pluribus unum"

今天我想和大家分享「e pluribus unum」這個想法，

and how our landscape might imbue those memories of diverse perspectives,

及我們的風景可以如何 充滿多樣化觀點的記憶，

as well as force us to stop trying to narrow things down

並迫使我們不要再狹隘地對待事物

I'd like to share with you five simple concepts

我想和大家分享五個簡單的觀念，

And I'd like to share with you five projects

where we can begin to see how the memory around us,

在這些專案裡，我們能開始發現，我們身邊的記憶

can actually force us to look at one another in a different way.

確實能夠迫使我們以不同的方式看待彼此。

And lastly: this is not just an American motto anymore.

最後，它不再只是美國的格言而已，

我認為 e pluribus unum 是全球性的。

First, great things happen when we exist in each other's world --

首先，當我們存在於彼此的世界中時，偉大的事情就會發生——

most of you have probably seen a community garden.

在座大部分人可能都見過社區花園。

They're all about subsistence and food. Right?

它們的重點就在於生計和食物。對吧？

what happened in New York more than a decade ago.

它是十多年前發生在紐約的事。

They tried to sell all of their community gardens,

他們試圖賣掉所有的社區花園，

and Bette Midler developed a nonprofit, the New York Restoration Project.

而貝蒂米勒開發了非營利的 「紐約復興計劃」。

他們真的取得了所有的社區花園，

咱們把世界級的設計師找過來，

and let them go out into communities and make these beautiful gardens,

讓他們進入社區， 設計出美麗的花園，

and maybe they might not just be about food.

也許這些花園就能有食物以外的意義。

我設計了一個皇后區牙買加的花園。

I went to the New York Restoration Project Office,

and I noticed a familiar name on the door downstairs.

我留意到樓下的門上有個熟悉的名字。

他們說：「剛尼特（Gunit）。」

And so we went downstairs, and before you knew it,

Curtis, Bette and the rest of them formed this collaboration,

柯蒂斯、貝蒂，和他們其他人 形成了合作關係，

and they built this garden in Jamaica, Queens.

他們打造了這個位於皇后區牙買加的花園。

And it turned out Curtis, 50 Cent, grew up in Jamaica.

結果發現，原來柯蒂斯，即五角，是在牙買加長大的。

And so again, when you start bringing these worlds together --

所以，同樣的，一旦將這些不同的世界結合起來——

that last year was voted one of the top 10 secret gardens in New York.

在去年被票選為紐約的十大秘密花園之一。

there was a story in the Times about six months ago

大約六個月前在 《時代》中有一則報導，

where this young woman found solace in going to the garden.

內容是一位年輕女子透過造訪花園找到了慰藉。

It had nothing to do with me. It had more to do with 50, I'm sure,

那和我沒什麼關係。但我肯定，那和五角比較有關係，

but it has inspired people to think about gardens

但它鼓舞了大家，去思考花園的意義，

and sharing each other's worlds in a different way.

並用不同的方式來分享彼此的世界。

it's not as simple as I thought it would be to explain,

but as I left to go to college, my father looked at me,

但，當我離家要去讀大學時，我爸爸看著我，

and said, "Junior, you're going to have to be both black and white

說：「兒子，當你到外面去時，

你必須要能是黑的也是白的。」

And if you go back to the early parts of the 20th century,

知名的活動分子 W.E.B. 杜波依斯

being viewed through the lens of other people,

會被透過其他人的視角來檢視，

and this two-ness, this double consciousness.

And I want to argue that more than a hundred years later,

that two-ness has made us strong and resilient,

這種雙重性使我們強壯且有恢復力，

and I would say for brown people, women --

我會說褐色皮膚的人，女人——

all of us who have had to navigate the world through the eyes of others --

所有必須透過人的眼睛在這世界前行的人——

we should now share that strength to the rest of those

who have had the privilege to be singular.

because I do think this two-ness can find itself in the world around us.

因為我確實認為我們周遭世界有這雙重性。

And it's beginning to happen where we're beginning to share these stories.

它已經發生在我們分享這些故事的地方了。

the academical village by Thomas Jefferson,

湯瑪斯傑佛遜建立的學術區裡，

it's a place that we're beginning to notice now was built by African hands.

我們逐漸注意到 它是由非洲人的手建造的。

As the University was expanding to the south,

they found a site that was the house of Kitty Foster,

找到了基蒂·福斯特的故居所在地，

她曾經為維吉尼亞大學的 學生們打掃。
