磨耳朵|奥普拉•温弗莉金球奖颁奖礼获奖感言,不容错过的教科书级演讲！

当地时间1月7日晚，美国影视界在洛杉矶沸沸扬扬地搞了一次趴——第75届美国电影电视金球奖颁奖礼，相信大家这两天已经被获奖名单刷屏了。除了影视类奖项按照板块被揭晓外，尤为引人关注的是终身成就奖（Cecil B DeMille award）由美国著名脱口秀节目主持人奥普拉•温弗莉 (Oprah Winfrey) 摘获。奥普拉的获奖感言堪称教科书级，让在场的许多人为之震撼和感动。

No-one spoke more powerfully than Oprah Winfrey, who became the first black woman to win the Cecil B DeMille award. The television star is being recognized as “a talented individual who has made an incredible impact on the world of entertainment.

奥普拉的演讲相当震撼，她是首位获得终身成就奖的黑人女性，为全球娱乐界做出了杰出贡献。

She spoke passionately and eloquently about many of the subjects and issues that have been raised since the Hollywood sexual harassment scandal erupted a few months ago. 

她的演讲慷慨激昂、雄辩有力，向人们讲述了去年10月好莱坞性骚扰丑闻后关于女性、平权和性骚扰的看法。

She brought the audience to an ovation by describing the story of a black woman raped in the old South by six white men and who never received justice.

其中，蕾西•泰勒（Recy Taylor）遭遇六名白人强奸却未能讨回公道的故事将演讲推向高潮。

下面摘抄了奥普拉演讲中的几个经典语录，让我们来仔细研读和学习一下吧！

1

What I know for sure is that speaking your truth is the most powerful tool we all have.

我也意识到了一点：说出事实真相是我们都拥有的最强大的工具。

2

But it's not just a story affecting the entertainment industry. It's one that transcends any culture, geography, race, religion, politics or workplace.

然而这个故事并不仅仅对娱乐产业产生了影响，它还是一个超越文化、地理、种族、宗教、政治和工作的故事。

3

For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up!

在很长一段时间里，即使有女性敢于说出真相，指控那些掌握权力的男性，她们的声音也没人倾听，没人相信。然而这样的日子已经到头了，这样的日子已经到头了！

4

In my career what I've always tried my best to do, whether on television or through film, is to say something about how men and women really behave, to say how we experience shame, how we love and how we rage, how we fail, how we retreat, persevere, and how we overcome.

在我的职业生涯中，不管是在电视荧屏上，还是大银幕上，我都尽我所能去讲述，关于男性或者女性如何行为得体，告诉大家我们应该怎么经历羞耻，如何去爱，如何去怒，如何失败，如何撤退，如何坚持，如何克服。

5

I've interviewed and portrayed people who've withstood some of the ugliest things life can throw at you, but the one quality all of them seem to share is an ability to maintain hope for a brighter morning, even during our darkest nights.

我采访过他人，自己也饰演过一些角色，这些人或者角色经历了世间最丑陋的事情，但他们都拥有同样的品质，那就是留有希望。尽管他们正经历着最黑暗的夜晚，但也要期待更美好的未来。

6

So I want all the girls watching here, now, to know that a new day is on the horizon!

所以我希望电视机前所有的女孩们都知道，新的一天即将到来了！

7

And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say 'me too' again. Thank you."

当新的一天最终降临时，大家都要感谢一大批伟大的女性，而且其中很多人今天就在现场。我们也要感谢一些杰出的男人，他们努力奋斗，确保自己成为领袖，带领我们来到一个没有人会再说“我也是”的时代。

奥普拉在75届金球奖颁奖礼上的精彩演讲及原文↓↓↓

"In 1964, I was a little girl sitting on the linoleum floor of my mother's house in Milwaukee, watching Anne Bancroft present the Oscar for best actor at the 36th Academy Awards. She opened the envelope and said five words that literally made history: 'The winner is Sidney Poitier.'

Up to the stage came the most elegant man I had ever seen. I remember his tie was white, and of course his skin was black, and I'd never seen a black man being celebrated like that. I tried many, many times to explain what a moment like that means to a little girl, a kid watching from the cheap seats as my mom came through the door bone-tired from cleaning other people's houses.

But all I can do is quote and say that the explanation in Sidney's performance in Lilies of the Field: 'Amen, amen. Amen, amen.'

In 1982, Sidney received the Cecil B DeMille award right here at the Golden Globes and it is not lost on me that at this moment, there are some little girls watching as I become the first black woman to be given this same award.

It is an honour: it is an honour and it is a privilege to share the evening with all of them and also with the incredible men and women who have inspired me, who have challenged me, who have sustained me and made my journey to this stage possible.

Dennis Swanson who took a chance on me for AM Chicago. Quincy Jones who saw me on that show and said to Steven Spielberg 'yes, she is Sofia in The Color Purple'. Gayle [King] who's been the definition of what a friend is and Stedman [Graham] who's been my rock.

I'd like to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Because we all know the press is under siege these days. But we also know it is the insatiable dedication to uncovering the absolute truth that keeps us from turning a blind eye to corruption and to injustice. To tyrants and victims, and secrets and lies.

I want to say that I value the press more than ever before as we try to navigate these complicated times, which brings me to this: what I know for sure is that speaking your truth is the most powerful tool we all have. And I'm especially proud and inspired by all the women who have felt strong enough and empowered enough to speak up and share their personal stories. Each of us in this room are celebrated because of the stories that we tell, and this year we became the story.

But it's not just a story affecting the entertainment industry. It's one that transcends any culture, geography, race, religion, politics or workplace. So I want tonight to express gratitude to all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault because they, like my mother, had children to feed and bills to pay and dreams to pursue.

They're the women whose names we'll never know. They are domestic workers and farm workers. They are working in factories and they work in restaurants and they're in academia, engineering, medicine and science. They're part of the world of tech and politics and business. They're our athletes in the Olympics and they're our soldiers in the military.

And there's someone else. Recy Taylor, a name I know and I think you should know too. In 1944, Recy Taylor was a young wife and a mother. She was just walking home from a church service she'd attended in Abbeville, Alabama, when she was abducted by six armed white men, raped and left blindfolded by the side of the road coming home from church. They threatened to kill her if she ever told anyone, but her story was reported to the NAACP where a young worker by the name of Rosa Parks became the lead investigator on her case and together they sought justice.

But justice wasn't an option in the era of Jim Crow. The men who tried to destroy her were never persecuted. Recy Taylor died 10 days ago, just shy of her 98th birthday. She lived as we all have lived, too many years in a culture broken by brutally powerful men. For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up!

Their time is up. And I just hope... I just hope that Recy Taylor died knowing that her truth, like the truth of so many other women who were tormented in those years, and even now tormented, goes marching on. It was somewhere in Rosa Parks's heart almost 11 years later, when she made the decision to stay seated on that bus in Montgomery, and it's here with every woman who chooses to say 'Me too'. And every man, every man who chooses to listen.

In my career, what I've always tried my best to do, whether on television or through film, is to say something about how men and women really behave. To say how we experience shame, how we love and how we rage, how we fail, how we retreat, persevere and how we overcome.

I've interviewed and portrayed people who've withstood some of the ugliest things life can throw at you, but the one quality all of them seem to share is an ability to maintain hope for a brighter morning, even during our darkest nights.

So I want all the girls watching here, now, to know that a new day is on the horizon! And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say 'me too' again. Thank you."

Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award

Cecil B DeMille (1881-1959) was a legendary Hollywood producer and director

The Cecil B. DeMille Award is an honorary Golden Globe Award bestowed by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for "outstanding contributions to the world of entertainment". It was first presented on February 21, 1952 at the 9th Annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony and is named in honor of its first recipient, director Cecil B. DeMille. Honorees are selected by the HFPA board of directors and are presented annually (except for 1976 and 2008). The first woman to receive the honor was Judy Garland in 1962 who, at 39 years of age, was also the youngest honoree ever to receive the award, while Samuel Goldwyn, at the age of 93, in 1973, was the oldest. The first African-American male recipient was Sidney Poitier in 1982. In 2018, Oprah Winfrey became the first African-American woman to receive the award.

塞西尔•B•德米尔奖（又称终身成就奖）是金球奖中为了表彰终身致力电影事业并为全球娱乐业做出贡献的奖项。该奖项自1952年2月21日在第九届金球奖颁奖礼上首次颁发，名称以获奖者、电影制作人塞西尔•德米尔名字命名。终身成就奖获得者由好莱坞外国记者协会（HFPA）选拔，每年一次（1976年和2008年除外）。1962年，朱迪•加兰成为首位获得终身成就奖的最年轻的女性，年仅39岁。1973年，时年93岁的塞缪尔•高德温成为终身成就奖的最年长获得者。1982年，西德尼•波蒂埃成为第一个获得终身成就奖的非裔美国男性，而2018年奥普拉•温弗莉成为首位获得终身成就奖的非裔美国女性。
