Talking 2

Hey, Line up, line up.
before race,
shoulders to shoulders.
Line up before the race,we are racing for $100 bill.
The winner of this race take this $100 bill.
Before I say "Go",
I'm gonna  make a couple of statements, those statements is apply to you,
I want you to take 2 steps forward,

Those statement dont' apply to you,
I want you to stay right away.

Take 2 steps forward, both your parents are still married.

Take 2 steps forward,
if you grew up with a father figure in the  home,

Take 2 steps forward,
you had access to private education,

Take 2 steps forward,
if you have access to a free tutor growing up.

Take 2 steps forward,
if you never have to  worry about your sell phone being shut off.

Take 2 steps forward,
if you never had to help mum and dad with the bills.

Take 2 steps forward,
if it wan't because of your athletic ability, you don't have to pay for college.

Take 2 steps forward,
if you never wondered what your next meals is gonna come from.

I want you guys up in the front just to turn around and look.
Every statement, I've made has nothing to do with anything any of you've done
has nothing to do with decision you 've 'made.Everything I've said has nothing to do with
we all know these people up here have a better opportunity to win this hundred dollars..
Does people back here can't race?
No.
We would be foolish to not rearized we've been we are given more opportunity.
we don't wanna recognised that we've been given a head start,but the reality is we have now there is no excuse.They still gotta run their race.
You still gotta run race, but whoever wins this 100 dollars.
I think it would be extremely foolish of you not to utilise that and learn more about
somebody else's story
because reality is if this was a fair race
everybody's back on that line.
I garantee you some of those back dudes would smoke all of you and it's only because you have this big of head start that you're possibly gonna win this race, called life.
That is a picture of life, ladies and gentlemen.
Nothing you've done has put you in the lead that you're in right now.
When I say go,
get said "Go",

if you didn't learn anything from this activity, you're a fool.

My friend sent this youtube video.'' Explain privilege''.
I love this very much.


質問のたびに、集まった若者たちの何人かが、そこにとりのこされていく。

何の自分の努力なしに、裕福な家に生まれたということだけで、
人生に差がつくことに、気づいていない人が多いとこの指導者はいう。
体でそれを、感じさせるこのビデオは、ほんとに、よくできている。
この先生らしき人の、しゃべり方がすごく気にいった。
非常に説得力があり、ビデオの合間に見る、だんだん取り残されていく
若者たちの顔が、印象的で、ビデオをみているとき、自分のこともそうだけど、
実は、ネパールの子供たちの顔が浮かんだ。
ある日本のテレビの取材で、フィリピンのビデオでは、
私は、この国に生まれたかったわけではないというのがあって、胸が痛んだ。
貧しさのあまり、道端の雑草を食べていた若者は
いまは、おしもおされぬ俳優となった。
どんなに、めぐまれていてもそれに気づかない人。
どんなに恵まれていなくても、夢を追いかけるために、
妥協をしない人。
私は、すっかり、スポイルされている自分に気が付いた。
これからだ。
スタート地点は、遅れている。
でも、レースは、続く。



では、今日も、いい1日になりますように。
