只需 35 美分、一张照片并承诺支持加维的国家建设计划,任何非洲人后裔都可以加入普遍黑人进步协会。
Garvey's genius was to transform cooks, maids, and workmen with the pride that comes with a title and a uniform.
加维的天才在于让厨师、女佣和工人获得头衔和制服带来的自豪感。
"Always think yourself a perfect being," he wrote, "and be satisfied with yourself."
“永远认为自己是一个完美的人,”他写道,“并对自己感到满意。”
You would almost see them -- metamorph into something else.
你几乎会看到它们——变形为其他东西。
You would see it.

They'd suddenly get very tall because the smallest man in the uniform still looked like a giant.

I can tell you that from experience.

They were gorgeous.

——这些制服和羽毛向世界其他地方表明,我们是加维人,并为此感到自豪!
My father -- at one point said that the organization would have been able to develop farther -- and faster if he had more women in the organization, in comparison to some of the wimpy men that he had.
我的父亲曾经说过,如果他的组织中有更多的女性,而不是他所拥有的一些懦弱的男性,那么该组织将能够发展得更远、更快。
With its elaborate rituals and official songs, Garvey's UNIA was a separate world.
凭借其精心设计的仪式和官方歌曲,加维的 UNIA 是一个独立的世界。
Members pledged allegiance to the red, black and green flag, which Garvey himself designed as a symbol of a black nation in the making.
成员们宣誓效忠红、黑、绿三色旗帜,这是加维亲自设计的,作为正在形成的黑人国家的象征。
"Show me the race or the nation without a flag, and I will show you a race of people without any pride.

让非洲自由。”女人们唱着这首歌,男人们回答:“前进,”女人们,“走向胜利。”男人,“前进,”“前进,迎接敌人,”“前进,”每个人,“带着红、黑、绿的力量”,“前进,”“带着红、黑、绿的力量。”
In the summer of 1918, Garvey set out to create a separate economy of black owned businesses.
1918 年夏天,加维着手创建黑人企业的独立经济。
First, he purchased a half-finished church building for use as UNIA headquarters, and christened it "Liberty Hall."
首先,他购买了一座半完工的教堂建筑作为UNIA总部,并将其命名为“自由厅”。
Relying on the printing skills he'd learned as a boy, Garvey started the Negro World newspaper with a cover price of 5 cents.
加维依靠小时候学到的印刷技术,创办了《黑人世界》报纸,封面价格为 5 美分。
The paper carried essays, poetry, and articles on Black history and world events.
该报纸刊登了有关黑人历史和世界事件的散文、诗歌和文章。
On the front page of every issue was a long editorial penned by Garvey himself.
每期的头版都有加维本人撰写的长篇社论。
He distributed the paper with the help of Amy Ashwood, who had made her way to New York a year earlier.
他在艾米·阿什伍德的帮助下分发了这份报纸,艾米·阿什伍德一年前来到了纽约。
Then, to attract the dollars that flowed through black hands, Garvey created the first of many investment funds.
然后,为了吸引通过黑手流入的美元,加维创建了众多投资基金中的第一个。
Garvey was aware that blacks had contributed to the war effort by purchasing over 220 million dollars worth of liberty bonds.
加维意识到黑人通过购买价值超过 2.2 亿美元的自由债券为战争做出了贡献。
And this contribution to the war effort indicated that there was some wealth within the black community in the United States.
这种对战争的贡献表明美国黑人社区内部也有一定的财富。
And his idea was that this black wealth should be converted into businesses that would benefit blacks and projects that would benefit black people.
而他的想法是,这些黑人财富应该转化为有利于黑人的企业和有利于黑人的项目。
Garvey's idea of the UNIA was that it would teach success.
加维对 UNIA 的想法是它会教导成功。
It was going to be a vehicle to communicate and demonstrate that black people could be successful.
它将成为沟通和证明黑人可以成功的工具。
This idea of success was now translated into a whole series of commercial ventures, laundries, restaurants, newspapers
这种成功理念现已转化为一系列商业企业、洗衣店、餐馆、报纸
Garvey financed UNIA enterprises through the Negro Factories Corporation, which was capitalized with small contributions from his followers.
加维通过黑人工厂公司为 UNIA 企业提供资金,该公司的资本来自他的追随者的小额捐款。
At their peak, UNIA businesses employed as many as a thousand people in Harlem.
在鼎盛时期,UNIA 企业在哈莱姆区雇佣了多达 1000 名员工。
But UNIA companies quickly began to flounder.
但 UNIA 公司很快就开始陷入困境。
Garvey hired managers with little or no experience.
加维聘请了经验很少或没有经验的经理。
He shifted funds from one company to cover mounting losses in another.
他从一家公司转移资金来弥补另一家公司不断增加的亏损。
And he insisted that his followers play by his rules.
他坚持要求他的追随者遵守他的规则。
When an early member of the Harlem branch challenged his leadership, Garvey physically assaulted him.
当哈莱姆分部的一名早期成员挑战他的领导地位时,加维对他进行了人身攻击。
Garvey was very authoritarian and very anti-democratic in the way he ran his organization, his primary concern was in loyalty, not in competence, because he does not attract around him people who are particularly competent.
加维在管理组织的方式上非常独裁和反民主,他最关心的是忠诚,而不是能力,因为他周围不会吸引特别有能力的人。
And they, therefore, would not tell him or try to stop him from using those monies to finance other endeavors in the UNIA.
因此,他们不会告诉他或试图阻止他使用这些钱来资助 UNIA 的其他活动。
In October 1919, resentment against Garvey boiled over.
1919 年 10 月,人们对加维的不满情绪爆发。
A disgruntled investor named George Tyler pushed his way into UNIA headquarters, where Amy Ashwood was now working.
一位名叫乔治·泰勒 (George Tyler) 心怀不满的投资者闯入 UNIA 总部,艾米·阿什伍德 (Amy Ashwood) 现在在那里工作。
Amy Ashwood didn't really want to let him in.
艾米·阿什伍德其实并不想让他进来。
He seemed, ah, disturbed.
他看起来,啊,很不安。
Garvey came forward, said, "What do you want," whereupon George Tyler pulled out a gun and began shooting.
加维走上前来,说道:“你想要什么?”乔治·泰勒随即掏出枪开始射击。
Amy Ashwood threw her body between the shooter and Garvey to protect her lover, -- George Tyler said, "I don't want to shoot you," trying to aim around her.
艾米·阿什伍德(Amy Ashwood)将自己的身体扔到枪手和加维之间以保护她的爱人,乔治·泰勒(George Tyler)说,“我不想开枪射杀你”,试图瞄准她。
-- She tackled Tyler and they tumbled down the stairs to the first floor.
——她抓住了泰勒,他们从楼梯上滚下到一楼。
As soon as the shots were fired, the people on the first floor had called the police.
枪声一响,一楼的人就报了警。
The police came, they apprehended Tyler and took him to jail in Harlem.
警察来了,逮捕了泰勒,并将他关进哈莱姆区的监狱。
And the news reports were that Garvey had been shot in the head and it -- it made a huge news splash.
新闻报道说加维头部中弹,这引起了巨大的新闻轰动。
And that moment becomes "the" turning point, because Garvey survives three shots.
那一刻成为“转折点”,因为加维在三枪中幸存下来。
The next day he had a big, ah, speaking engagement in Philadelphia and he goes to Philadelphia, in spite of the fact that he's been shot -- ah he's bandaged, but he goes and makes his speaking engagement and he now has this extraordinary sort of, ahm, quasi-religious, ah, significance.
第二天,他在费城有一个大型的,啊,演讲活动,他去了费城,尽管事实上他被枪杀了——啊,他缠着绷带,但他还是去参加了演讲,现在他有了这种非凡的,嗯,准宗教的,啊,意义。
He survived.
他活了下来。
He's invincible.
他是无敌的。
By the end of 1919, Garvey claimed over three-quarters of a million followers and 'The Negro World' was the most popular black newspaper in the United States.
到 1919 年底,加维拥有超过四分之三的粉丝,《黑人世界》是美国最受欢迎的黑人报纸。
But his rising influence would soon make him a target of the federal government and a growing number of black critics who called the UNIA, 'A House of Cards'.
但他日益增长的影响力很快使他成为联邦政府和越来越多黑人批评者的目标,他们称 UNIA 为“纸牌屋”。
At the end of World War I, the war powers descended on Versailles to make peace and re-divide colonial territories.
第一次世界大战结束时,战争列强降临凡尔赛,缔结和平并重新瓜分殖民地领土。
From the seat of his self-styled empire in Harlem, Marcus Garvey argued that it was time to give Africa back to black people.
马库斯·加维(Marcus Garvey)在哈莱姆区自诩为帝国的所在地,他认为是时候将非洲归还给黑人了。
Some said it was a ridiculous fantasy.
有人说这是一个可笑的幻想。
But Garvey's slogan,"Africa for the Africans" reverberated around the world as his movement spread through the colonies.
但随着加维的运动在殖民地蔓延,他的口号“非洲属于非洲人”在全世界引起反响。
In Europe, Garvey began to be seen as a threat.
在欧洲,加维开始被视为威胁。
TED KORNWEIBEL, Historian: The United States had worked with the British government during World War I and they continued that after World War I with the focus on Garvey, because the British government was deathly afraid that the Garvey Movement was going to spread revolution.
历史学家泰德·科恩韦贝尔:美国在第一次世界大战期间与英国政府合作,第一次世界大战后他们继续合作,重点关注加维,因为英国政府非常担心加维运动会蔓延革命。
They feared the hundreds of thousands of the masses of blacks under his influence and, undoubtedly, Garvey did stir up nationalism.
他们害怕受他影响的数十万黑人群众,毫无疑问,加维确实煽动了民族主义。
"I say this plainly.
“我说得很直白。
And for everybody to hear.
并让每个人都听到。
We are organizing to drive every paleface out of Africa.
我们正在组织起来,将所有白人赶出非洲。
Do you know why?
你知道为什么吗?
Because Africa is mine.
因为非洲是我的。
Africa is the land of my fathers.
非洲是我祖先的土地。
We who make up this organization know no turning back.
我们组成这个组织的人知道没有回头路。
We have pledged ourselves even onto the last drop of our sacred blood that Africa must be free."
我们甚至用我们最后一滴神圣的血来保证非洲必须自由。”
Garvey's 'Negro World', now published in Spanish, French and English, carried news of rebellion around the world.
加维的《黑人世界》现已出版西班牙语、法语和英语版本,在世界各地传播叛乱的消息。
In Africa and the Caribbean, colonial authorities banned the newspaper.
在非洲和加勒比地区,殖民当局查禁了这份报纸。
But with over 500 divisions of the UNIA in twenty-two countries, Garvey's message could not be stopped.
但由于 UNIA 在 22 个国家设有 500 多个分部,加维的信息无法被阻止。
'The Negro World' was being smuggled into Kenya by seamen, black seamen -- and then it would be read aloud to groups of people around this reader, plus young children, young boys, in particular, who were charged with memorizing Garvey's editorial in 'The Negro World'.
《黑人世界》被海员、黑人海员偷运到肯尼亚——然后它会被大声朗读给读者周围的一群人,还有小孩子,特别是小男孩,他们负责记住加维在《黑人世界》中的社论。
So it was read out and then these young boys would run off having memorized it, run off to the villages and spread Garvey's word, ahm, in that way.
所以它被读出了,然后这些小男孩背下来后就会跑开,跑到村庄里,传播加维的话,嗯,就这样。
In the United States, black troops returned from World War I with high expectations for change.
在美国,黑人军队从第一次世界大战中归来,对变革抱有很高的期望。
But they returned to a country that was not ready for equality; a country increasingly suspicious of radical political movements.
但他们回到了一个还没有准备好实现平等的国家;一个对激进政治运动越来越怀疑的国家。
In this unsettled climate, Garvey's appeal to disgruntled African Americans with military training sounded an alarm.
在这种不稳定的气氛下,加维向心怀不满的非裔美国人发出的军事训练呼吁敲响了警钟。
Attorney General Palmer decided that there needed to be a special division of the Justice Department.
司法部长帕尔默决定司法部需要设立一个专门部门。
He called it the General Intelligence Division.
他称之为通用情报部门。
And he picked a young Justice Department attorney, he was really unknown at that time, but, ah, must have been -- must have been known enough for his diligence -- and his name was J.
他挑选了一位年轻的司法部律师,他当时确实默默无闻,但是,啊,一定是——一定因为他的勤奋而足够出名——他的名字叫 J.
Edgar Hoover.
埃德加·胡佛.
Garvey really gets pinpointed.
加维确实被精确定位了。
Hoover and the Justice Department were clearly hooked on a fixation on Garvey which would before long become a vendetta.
胡佛和司法部显然对加维很着迷,这很快就会变成一场仇杀。
J.
J。
Edgar Hoover wrote to a colleague, "Garvey is a notorious negro agitator, affectionately referred to by his own race as the 'negro Moses.'"
埃德加·胡佛在给同事的信中写道:“加维是一位臭名昭著的黑人煽动者,被他自己的种族亲切地称为‘黑人摩西’。”
Hoover's agents were in the audience at Carnegie Hall when Garvey bragged that the UNIA would soon be strong enough to exact its own form of justice.
当加维吹嘘 UNIA 很快就会强大到足以实施自己的正义形式时,胡佛的特工就在卡内基音乐厅的观众席上。
"When those crackers lynch a Negro below the Mason-Dixon line, since it is not safe to lynch a white man in any part of America, we shall press the button and lynch him in Africa."
“当那些骗子对梅森-迪克森线以下的黑人实施私刑时,由于在美国任何地方对白人实施私刑都不安全,我们将按下按钮,在非洲对他实施私刑。”
The agent reported that Garvey's address was met with "great applause and much excitement."
据该特工报道,加维的演讲赢得了“热烈的掌声和兴奋”。
J.
J。
Edgar Hoover had long relied on casual informants.
埃德加·胡佛长期以来一直依赖非正式的线人。
But now, in his determination to go after Garvey, Hoover hired the first full-time black agent in the Bureau's history.
但现在,胡佛决心追捕加维,聘请了该局历史上第一位全职黑人特工。
He was known by a code number.
人们通过一个代号认识他。
All his reports were signed, ah, "800".
他所有的报告都签了字啊,800。
That was his code.
那是他的密码。
And his job was to go into Harlem and to infiltrate the Garvey Movement to try and find evidence that could be used to build the legal case for ultimately getting rid of Garvey.
他的工作是进入哈莱姆区并渗透到加维运动中,试图找到可用于建立法律案件以最终除掉加维的证据。
Garvey rejected America.
加维拒绝了美国。
They could no more agree to and accept a militant rejection of America by blacks than they could accept a militant demand for full inclusion by blacks.
他们无法同意并接受黑人对美国的激进拒绝,就像他们无法接受黑人全面融入的激进要求一样。
Just as the government campaign against him escalated, Marcus Garvey unveiled a new business enterprise.
就在政府针对他的行动升级之际,马库斯·加维推出了一家新的企业。
It was his most ambitious venture, but would prove to be the most fateful.
这是他最雄心勃勃的冒险,但后来被证明是最致命的。
The idea comes to Garvey that black people need a shipping line, and he bases his idea on the fact that the Cunard family has the White Star Line and the Irish have the Green Star Line, and he says, "Why shouldn't blacks have the Black Star Line?" So it is a vision of grandeur.
加维想到了黑人需要一条航运公司,他的想法是基于丘纳德家族拥有白星航运公司而爱尔兰人拥有绿星航运公司这一事实,他说:“为什么黑人不应该拥有黑星航运公司?”所以这是一个宏伟的愿景。
Black people were routinely Jim Crowed on ocean-going liners.
黑人经常在远洋客轮上被吉姆克劳德(Jim Crowed)对待。
-- Black folk paying, say, for first class accommodations, often had to travel in third class accommodation.
——比如说,支付头等舱住宿费用的黑人通常不得不乘坐三等舱住宿。
Black people on ships had to eat after the white people had finished eating.
船上的黑人必须在白人吃完后才吃饭。
So all of these problems Garvey was trying to address through a shipping corporation.
因此,加维试图通过一家航运公司来解决所有这些问题。
His ships would carry more than passengers.
他的船承载的不仅仅是乘客。
Garvey envisioned commercial trade among Black communities around the world, with produce, raw materials, and manufactured goods transported on UNIA vessels.
加维设想了世界各地黑人社区之间的商业贸易,通过 UNIA 船只运输农产品、原材料和制成品。
The Black Star Line was in some ways Garvey's Empire State Building.
黑星航运公司在某种程度上就是加维的帝国大厦。
It was this monument to black commerce in the same way that the Empire State Building was this citadel of white capitalism.
它是黑人商业的纪念碑,就像帝国大厦是白人资本主义的堡垒一样。
And it represented the ability of black people to seize the day and to have their own economy.
它代表了黑人抓住机遇、拥有自己经济的能力。
Garvey offered Black Star Line stock for sale in 1919, promising his investors liberation and large profits as they slept.
1919 年,加维出售黑星航运公司的股票,并承诺在投资者睡梦中解放他们并带来巨额利润。
My parents spent a small fortune (Laughs) in Garvey shares.
我父母在加维股票上花了一小笔钱(笑)。
They were five dollars apiece in those days, which was a lot of money.
在当时,每张五美元,这是一笔很大的钱。
And my mother had to remind my father that there was food and things to be bought, because he was buying shares and Daddy had those on his dresser.
我母亲不得不提醒我父亲有食物和东西要买,因为他正在买股票,而爸爸的梳妆台上有这些。
And I remember reaching out to touch them and Daddy said, "Touch them and feel the power that the black man will someday know."
我记得伸手去触摸它们,爸爸说:“触摸它们,感受黑人有一天会知道的力量。”
Just months after his first stock offering, Garvey stunned the world with the purchase of the Black Star Line's first ship.
在首次股票发行几个月后,加维购买了黑星航运公司的第一艘船,震惊了世界。
"Let our steamship sail the high seas, not one, not two, but hundreds of them.
“让我们的轮船在公海上航行,不是一艘,不是两艘,而是数百艘。
The stronger we become upon land and sea, the more will be the respect shown to us and the greater will be the glory."
我们在陆地和海上变得越强大,我们就会受到越多的尊重,荣耀就会越大。”

Yarmouth, a 33 year-old wartime coal boat that Garvey planned to re-name the Frederick Douglass, would set sail with an all-black crew under the command of Joshua Cockburn, a black captain.
雅茅斯号是一艘已有 33 年历史的战时运煤船,加维计划将其重新命名为弗雷德里克·道格拉斯号,该船将在黑人船长约书亚·科伯恩 (Joshua Cockburn) 的指挥下与全黑人船员一起起航。
One bright November morning in 1919, Garveyites assembled on the pier at 135th Street in Harlem to witness the launching of the Yarmouth.
1919 年 11 月一个阳光明媚的早晨,加维派聚集在哈莱姆区 135 街的码头上,见证雅茅斯号下水。
A spectator said, "We watched people jump up and down, throw up their hats and handkerchiefs and cheer while the Yarmouth backed from the wharf and slowly glided down the North River." The ship appeared to embark on a spectacular ocean voyage.
一位观众说:“我们看到人们上蹿下跳,抛起帽子和手帕,欢呼雀跃,而雅茅斯号则从码头退了回来,慢慢地顺着北河顺流而下。”这艘船似乎开始了一次壮观的远洋航行。
But because Garvey had not finished paying for it, the Yarmouth went only as far as the 23rd street pier.
但由于加维还没有付完钱,雅茅斯号只开到了23街码头。
But when the Yarmouth finally made its maiden voyage, it was cause for an international celebration.
但当雅茅斯号最终完成首航时,引起了国际性的庆祝。
The President of Cuba threw a banquet in honor of the crew, and members of his cabinet purchased shares in the Black Star Line.
古巴总统为船员举办了宴会,内阁成员购买了黑星航运公司的股份。
In Costa Rica, workers descended on the docks to shower the Yarmouth with fruits and flowers.
在哥斯达黎加,工人们来到码头,向雅茅斯河洒满水果和鲜花。
It was announced that one of the ships of the Black Star Line would be coming to Panama and going through the canal.
据消息称,黑星航运公司的一艘船只将前往巴拿马并途经运河。
I was a very small boy at the time and my brother and I were given packed lunches, sandwiches and drinks, and were packed off to a place called Christ Church by the Sea, waiting to see this Garvey ship arrive.
当时我还是个很小的男孩,我和哥哥得到了盒装午餐、三明治和饮料,然后被送往一个叫海边基督教堂的地方,等待这艘加维船的到来。
-- We got there at about nine-ten in the morning, midday no ship, three o'clock in the afternoon no ship, but we were still there waiting.
——我们早上九点十分左右到的,中午没有船,下午三点也没有船,但我们还在那儿等着。
-- Nine o'clock, no ship.
——九点了,没有船。
At about nine-thirty-ten, my brother put me on his back and we were on the way home -- but the ship never actually came.
大约九点三十分,我哥哥把我背在背上,我们就踏上了回家的路——但船却从未真正来过。
There's no denying the fact that Garvey's Black Star Steamship Line was a wonderful symbol.
不可否认,加维的黑星轮船公司是一个美妙的象征。
It was a powerful symbol.
这是一个强大的象征。
-- But it was nothing more than that, I think, a symbol.
——但我认为,这只不过是一个象征。
The fact that people would come down to the docks waiting for these ships -- in some ways is metaphoric for the wishful thinking that was largely at the heart of the Garvey Movement.
事实上,人们会来到码头等待这些船只——在某种程度上,这是加维运动核心的一厢情愿的隐喻。
Garvey was betrayed by the few people he trusted to get the Black Star Line afloat.
加维被他信任的少数人背叛了,以让黑星航运继续前进。
The man he asked to inspect the Yarmouth turned out to be an informant for J.
他要求检查雅茅斯的那个人原来是 J. 的线人。
Edgar Hoover.
埃德加·胡佛.
And his hand-picked Captain, Joshua Cockburn, convinced Garvey to pay six times what the ship was worth -- and then took a kickback from the purchase price.
他亲自挑选的船长约书亚·科伯恩说服加维支付了该船价值六倍的价格,然后从购买价格中收取了回扣。
Yet Garvey quickly raised and spent two-hundred thousand dollars on two more ships.
然而加维很快又筹集并花费了二十万美元购买了另外两艘船。
And making a purchase of those liners without, ah, being led by experts, he was deceived about the condition of those -- of those ships and overpaid for -- for what their value should have been.
在没有,啊,由专家指导的情况下购买这些班轮时,他在这些船只的状况上受到了欺骗,并且为它们应有的价值支付了过高的价格。
It was a disaster for the movement and turned out to be a disaster for Mr. Garvey.
这对这场运动来说是一场灾难,对加维先生来说也是一场灾难。
At the end of 1919, Marcus Garvey married Amy Ashwood, the woman who just months earlier had thrown herself in the line of fire to save his life.
1919 年底,马库斯·加维 (Marcus Garvey) 与艾米·阿什伍德 (Amy Ashwood) 结婚,几个月前,她为了救他的命而投身火线。
They had a very rocky relationship, a lot of off-again/on-again, a lot of quarreling.
他们的关系非常不稳定,经常分分合合,经常争吵。
And finally they married in a spectacular Liberty Hall marriage on Christmas day.
最后他们在圣诞节那天在自由厅举行了一场盛大的婚礼。
Their extravagant wedding was the talk of Harlem.
他们奢华的婚礼成为哈莱姆区的热门话题。
Five different ministers performed the ceremony before three thousand guests.
五位不同的部长在三千名宾客面前主持了仪式。
Just four months later, the couple separated.
仅仅四个月后,这对夫妇就分居了。
"Having a wife was an impediment to my work and peace of mind," Garvey would later say.
“拥有妻子是我工作和内心平静的障碍,”加维后来说。
"I can't pay her personal attention as the average husband.
“作为普通丈夫,我无法个人关注她。
In fact I have no time to look after myself."
事实上我没有时间照顾自己。”
My father was committed totally to the struggle and that's why he -- he never seemed to -- he never seemed to relax.

He kept tremendous hours.
他花了很多时间。
So it was a total commitment to the struggle and the cause.
因此,这是对斗争和事业的全身心投入。
The UNIA was taking in thousands of dollars a day, but Garvey lived modestly on the 6th floor of a Harlem apartment building.
UNIA 每天收入数千美元,但加维却住在哈林区一栋公寓楼的六楼。
He didn't drink or smoke, and preferred to eat the same food night after night.
他不喝酒也不抽烟,并且喜欢夜复一夜地吃同样的食物。
Garvey spent his few idle hours arranging and re-arranging a collection of Egyptian vases and African ornaments, making his home into an orderly private world.
加维利用空闲时间整理、重新整理一系列埃及花瓶和非洲装饰品,将他的家打造成一个井然有序的私人世界。

He was always bringing things for us children, but I nev-- I never saw him -- he just always looked serious.
他总是给我们这些孩子带来东西,但我从来没有——我从来没有见过他——他总是看起来很严肃。
On August first, 1920, thousands of UNIA delegates from twenty-five countries assembled at Liberty Hall and Madison Square Garden.
1920 年 8 月 1 日,来自 25 个国家的数千名 UNIA 代表聚集在自由厅和麦迪逊广场花园。
Garvey called it the International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World.
加维将其称为世界黑人国际大会。
He hoped to move a step closer to his dream of a black nation in Africa -- with himself at the helm.
他希望在自己掌舵的情况下,离非洲黑人国家的梦想更近一步。
The whole convention is this extraordinary public event of -- pomp and -- and ceremony and magnificence and grandiloquence.
整个大会是一场非同寻常的公共活动,盛况空前,仪式隆重,气势磅礴。
Garvey, he would now establish a stage, a world stage for his movement and effectively what he gave the black world was a government in exile, a government in waiting.
加维,他现在将为他的运动建立一个舞台,一个世界舞台,而他实际上给黑人世界带来的是一个流亡政府,一个等待中的政府。
"We have met in this historic building tonight for the purpose of enlightening the world respecting the attitude of the 'New Negro'.
“我们今晚在这座历史建筑中聚会,目的是启发世界尊重‘新黑人’的态度。
If you believe that the Negro should have a place in the sun; if you believe that Africa should be one vast empire, controlled by the Negro, then arise, and sing the National Anthem of the Universal Negro Improvement Association."
如果你相信黑人应该在阳光下占有一席之地;如果你相信非洲应该成为一个由黑人控制的庞大帝国,那么就站起来,唱全球黑人进步协会的国歌。”
The month-long convention combined substance with overblown symbolism.
为期一个月的大会将实质内容与夸张的象征意义结合在一起。
Garvey installed officials with outlandish titles like "Supreme Potentate", "Leader of the American Negroes", and "Lady Commander of the Supreme Order of the Nile".
加维任命的官员拥有诸如“最高统治者”、“美国黑人领袖”和“尼罗河最高勋章女指挥官”等稀奇古怪的头衔。
After insisting that no African was qualified for the post, Garvey named himself "Provisional President of Africa".
在坚称没有非洲人有资格担任这一职位后,加维将自己命名为“非洲临时总统”。
But behind closed doors, convention delegates produced a groundbreaking document.
但闭门会议代表们制定了一份开创性的文件。
They developed a program which was based on assessment of what was the black experience in--up to 1920 and how do we go forward?
他们制定了一项计划,该计划基于对 1920 年之前黑人经历的评估以及我们如何前进?
-- which led to the development of the Declaration of Rights of the Negro Peoples of the World.
——这导致了《世界黑人人民权利宣言》的制定。
They were thinking that there needed to be a black declaration of rights.
他们认为需要有一份黑人权利宣言。
This was a important document that called upon the nations of Europe and America to respect the rights of black people throughout the world.
这是一份重要文件,呼吁欧美国家尊重全世界黑人的权利。
This was the moment at which Garvey, I think, was, ah, both the most powerful in the sense of his articulation of ideas of justice along racial lines, and at the same time his most grandiose and meglomaniacal, because there was really nothing behind any of this.
我认为,在这个时刻,加维是,啊,从他按照种族界限阐明正义观念的意义上来说,他是最强大的,同时也是他最浮夸和狂妄的,因为这一切背后实际上什么都没有。
Garvey's reply to his critics was simple.
加维对批评者的回应很简单。
"I am accused of creating Dukes, Barons, and knights," he said.
“我被指控创造了公爵、男爵和骑士,”他说。
"But who gave the white man a monopoly on creating social order?"
“但是谁赋予了白人创造社会秩序的垄断权呢?”
Garvey's government in exile conducted its own foreign policy, appointing ambassadors and sending a telegram of support to the Irish Republican Army.
加维流亡政府实行自己的外交政策,任命大使并向爱尔兰共和军发出支持电报。
He dispatched a team of engineers to Liberia to begin construction of a black homeland, and chartered a delegation to the League of Nations to argue for the transfer of African colonies to UNIA rule.
他派遣了一支工程师团队前往利比里亚,开始建设黑人家园,并派出一个代表团前往国际联盟,主张将非洲殖民地移交给国际联盟统治。
When he finally took to the stage, it was Garvey's moment of greatest triumph.
当他最终登上舞台时,这是加维最伟大的胜利时刻。
Twenty-five thousand people, black people, packed Madison Square Garden and Garvey delivers this magnificent speech in which he tells the Europeans to give Africa a wide berth because "We are coming home."
两万五千名黑人挤满了麦迪逊广场花园,加维发表了这篇精彩的演讲,他在演讲中告诉欧洲人对非洲敬而远之,因为“我们正在回家”。
The day after Garvey's speech, a massive UNIA parade stretched through Harlem.
加维演讲后的第二天,一场盛大的UNIA游行穿过哈莱姆区。
If you didn't live in Harlem, you tried to find someone that lived in a front apartment where you could get in the window and view everything, Everybody seemed to be out there to see the Garvey parade.
如果你不住在哈莱姆区,你会试着找一个住在前面公寓的人,在那里你可以从窗户看到一切,每个人似乎都在外面看加维游行。
To be a part of the Marcus Garvey movement it made me feel that I owned one half of the world, and I didn't own the other half because I didn't want it.
成为马库斯·加维运动的一员,让我觉得我拥有世界的一半,而我不拥有世界的另一半,因为我不想要它。
One Irish woman observing the parade remarked, "and to think, the Negro will get his liberty before the Irish."
一位观看游行的爱尔兰妇女说道:“想想看,黑人将比爱尔兰人先获得自由。”
And of course we were looking for my father, who would be in the group of officers marching proudly down the avenue with his sword at his side.
当然,我们正在寻找我的父亲,他会和一群军官一起自豪地沿着大道行进,身边佩剑。
It was an exciting thing to see.

He claimed millions of followers stretching around the world.

But with the Black Star Line hemorrhaging money and his black critics and the US government on the attack, Garvey's fast-rising star would soon begin to fall.
但随着黑星航运公司的资金流失以及他的黑人批评者和美国政府的攻击,加维这颗快速崛起的明星很快就会开始陨落。
Not all African Americans were thrilled by the splendor of the Garvey movement.
并非所有非裔美国人都对加维运动的辉煌感到兴奋。
Many were embarrassed by the pompous spectacle of Garvey in cap and gown.
许多人对加维戴着帽子、穿着长袍的浮夸场面感到尴尬。

Philip Randolph saw Garvey as a person who was engaged in a grand distraction.
菲利普·伦道夫认为加维是一个忙于消遣的人。
Garvey's emphasis on a program of African redemption, his pretensions to some kind of imperial posture as the provisional president of Africa, they thought of as either charlatantry or just pure buffoonery.
加维对非洲救赎计划的强调,以及他作为非洲临时总统的某种帝国姿态的自命不凡,他们认为要么是骗人的,要么就是纯粹的小丑。
Their complaints about him provide a legitimation for the government to move against Garvey, because you can always say, "You see, his own people don't even want him.
他们对他的抱怨为政府针对加维采取行动提供了合法性,因为你总是可以说,“你看,他自己的人民甚至不想要他。
And if they don't want him, then there must be something wrong."
如果他们不想要他,那么一定是出了什么问题。”
Encouraged by growing black opposition, the U.S. government stepped up surveillance of Garvey.

The engines sometimes of the ships were actually damaged by foreign matter being thrown into the fuel and so on.
有时船舶的发动机实际上是由于异物被扔进燃料等而损坏的。
And there was every effort made to destroy the movement, however, that wasn't the only thing that actually destroyed Garvey.
人们尽了一切努力来摧毁这场运动,然而,这并不是真正摧毁加维的唯一事情。
There were internal problems to the movement as well as these external forces.
运动存在内部问题,也存在外部力量。
Garvey's own crews took the Black Star Line to the brink of disaster.
加维自己的船员将黑星航运公司推向了灾难的边缘。
One captain steered his vessel off course to visit his wife.
一位船长驾驶船只偏离航线去探望他的妻子。
Another had a nervous breakdown and tried to sink his own ship.

Enraged at the chaos onboard one ship, Garvey got into a fistfight with the captain and fired half the crew.
加维对一艘船上的混乱感到愤怒,与船长发生了肢体冲突,并解雇了一半的船员。
But when it came to mismanagement, he had only himself to blame.
但说到管理不善,他只能怪自己。
Garvey looked for people who would be personally loyal to him.
加维寻找对他个人忠诚的人。
I think this is the only way we can explain the mismanagement, incompetence of the Black Star Steamship Line.
我想,只有这样才能解释黑星轮船公司的管理不善、无能。
The first treasurer of that line was a railroad clerk who had no experience in bookkeeping.
该线路的第一任财务主管是一位没有簿记经验的铁路职员。
What was important here, I think, was not an intellectual competence, but a loyalty to this charismatic leader.
我认为,这里重要的不是智力,而是对这位魅力领袖的忠诚。
As things spun out of control, Garvey confided in Herbert Bowlin, the owner of the Berry & Ross Doll Company.
随着事情的发展失去控制,加维向贝瑞罗斯娃娃公司的老板赫伯特·鲍林吐露了心声。

对于加维来说,鲍林是为数不多的几个真正的朋友之一。
To J.

Edgar Hoover, he was Agent P-138.
埃德加·胡佛,他是特工 P-138。
He got closer to Garvey than anyone else, ah, working for the government -- and, ah,-- Garvey was really isolated.
他比任何人都更接近加维,啊,为政府工作——而且,啊——加维真的很孤立。
Things weren't going well with the organization.
该组织的进展并不顺利。
The Black Star Line was losing money.
黑星航运公司正在亏损。
And so, -- remarkably, he confesses to this informant, ah, that he'd tried suicide, that he was thinking of suicide again.

——这表明了加维在巅峰时所感受到的孤独。
You know, he couldn't reveal those sorts of things to the key people around him.

By 1921, the Black Star Line was on the verge of bankruptcy, but Garvey mailed brochures to his supporters advertising stock in yet another ship.
1921 年,黑星航运公司濒临破产,但加维向他的支持者邮寄了小册子,宣传另一艘船的库存。
It would prove to be a major blunder.

In the brochure is a picture of a ship which purports to have been the SS Phyllis Wheatley.
宣传册中有一张据称是 SS Phyllis Wheatley 号船的照片。
It was -- a ship that Garvey was negotiating for and did not own.
这是——一艘加维正在谈判购买但并不拥有的船。
And it seems that someone etched into the bow of the ship the words "The SS Phyllis Wheatley." In other words it was a misrepresentation.
似乎有人在船头刻下了“SS Phyllis Wheatley”字样。换句话说,这是一种误传。
It gave the impression that Garvey and the Black Star Line owned the ship when in fact there was no such ship.
给人的印象是加维和黑星航运公司拥有这艘船,但事实上并没有这样的船。
In January 1922, Garvey and three UNIA officers were arrested for federal mail fraud.
1922 年 1 月,加维和三名 UNIA 官员因联邦邮件欺诈被捕。
The man Hoover once called a "notorious Negro agitator" was finally in his grasp.

The mail fraud was the most convenient and ultimately the only, ah, means that they could find to prosecute him.

Ah, prosecution was not the end.
啊,起诉还没有结束。

In July 1922, while he was out on bail, Garvey made a move that would lead his black critics to question his sanity.
1922 年 7 月,加维在保释期间做出的举动导致黑人批评者质疑他的理智。
He held a meeting with Edward Young Clarke, the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
他与三K党大巫师爱德华·杨·克拉克进行了会面。
Garvey felt that the Ku Klux Klan represented -- the invisible government of the United States.
加维认为三K党代表的是美国的隐形政府。
That's the real source of, ahm, power in America, Garvey believed.
加维相信,这就是美国权力的真正源泉。
And Garvey felt that, as Provisional President of Africa, he was entitled to meet with the counterpart of white American power.
加维认为,作为非洲临时总统,他有权会见美国白人权力的对应者。

所以加维并不觉得自己做错了什么。
In fact, Garvey's thought that what he had done was a diplomatic stroke of genius.
事实上,加维认为他的所作所为是外交上的天才之举。
After he met with the Klan leaders and had them speak at his rallies, he was viewed as an enemy of black people.
在他会见三K党领导人并让他们在集会上发言后,他被视为黑人的敌人。
-- For a so called "responsible" black spokesman to be having anything to do with these people was viewed as a complete and utter betrayal.
——对于一个所谓的“负责任的”黑人发言人来说,与这些人有任何关系都被视为彻底的背叛。
-- This was too much.
——这太过分了。
In a letter to the Attorney General, eight of Garvey's black critics said the UNIA "was composed of the most primitive and ignorant element...Negro sharks and Negro fanatics." They called for Garvey's deportation.
加维的八位黑人批评者在给总检察长的一封信中表示,UNIA“是由最原始、最无知的分子组成的……黑人鲨鱼和黑人狂热分子”。他们呼吁将加维驱逐出境。
But Garvey fought back.
但加维反击了。
When W.E.B DuBois called him the most dangerous enemy of the negro race, Garvey said DuBois was a "rabid Mulatto" who "needed a horsewhipping." A.
当 W.E.B 杜波依斯称他为黑人种族最危险的敌人时,加维说杜波依斯是一个“疯狂的黑白混血儿”,“需要鞭打”。 A.
Philip Randolph, who had once befriended Garvey, called the UNIA leader a "half-wit, low grade moron."
曾与加维成为朋友的菲利普·伦道夫称这位 UNIA 领导人为“愚笨、低级的白痴”。
In the midst of that A.

Philip Randolph received a package in the mail and thinking it was a bomb, he called the police.
菲利普·伦道夫 (Philip Randolph) 收到一个邮寄包裹,认为这是一枚炸弹,于是报了警。
-- They opened it up and they found that it was the severed human hand of a white man, signed -- with a note signed by the KKK.
——他们打开它,发现这是一名白人的断手,上面有一张三K党签名的字条。

Garvey, now frequently accompanied by eight bodyguards, denied involvement and said he was the target of violence.
加维现在经常有八名保镖陪同,他否认参与其中,并表示他是暴力的目标。
But then Reverend James Eason, once Garvey's hand-picked second-in-command and now expected to be a key prosecution witness, was shot and killed.
但随后,曾经是加维亲手挑选的第二把手、现在有望成为关键检方证人的詹姆斯·伊森牧师被枪杀。
Before he died, Eason identified his assailants as Garveyites.

As Garvey's trial began on May 18, 1923, a police bomb squad stood on alert and UNIA members packed the courtroom.
1923 年 5 月 18 日,加维的审判开始时,警察拆弹小组严阵以待,UNIA 成员挤满了法庭。
On the first day of the trial, Garvey fired his attorney and announced that he would defend himself.
审判的第一天,加维解雇了他的律师,并宣布他将为自己辩护。
I think Garvey believed that his powers of rhetoric and oratory -- would ultimately sway the court in his favor.
我认为加维相信他的修辞和演讲能力最终会让法庭对他有利。
He would have ruled the court, in other words, by his superior oratorical gifts and I think Garvey came, in the end, to rue that decision because it was a disaster.
换句话说,他本可以通过他卓越的演讲天赋来统治法庭,我认为加维最终会后悔这个决定,因为这是一场灾难。
Garvey paced up and down before the jury box as a parade of former UNIA officials took the stand to testify against him.
加维在陪审团席前来回踱步,一群前世界黑人协会官员出庭作证指控他。
Defiant, Garvey blamed subordinates and evaded responsibility for his errors.

If I did I should be thrown into the nethermost parts of hell."

Hoover's agents had the UNIA under surveillance for years in search of damaging evidence, but in the end, Garvey's conviction hung on using the mails to defraud one man, Benny Dancy, of twenty-five dollars.
胡佛的特工对 UNIA 进行了多年的监视,以寻找具有破坏性的证据,但最终,加维的定罪仍然是利用邮件诈骗一名名叫本尼·丹西 (Benny Dancy) 的男子 25 美元。
He took no advice.

-- He felt that anything contrary to his view of things was an attempt to derail him or to deflect him from his goals.
——他觉得任何与他对事物的看法相反的事情都是企图使他脱轨或偏离他的目标。

There's one group -- in rural Louisiana -- that gave an average five cents.
在路易斯安那州的农村地区,有一个团体平均捐出 5 美分。
They actually gave eight dollars, but when you actually counted the number of people involved, it actually amounted to something like five cents each.

People around the world began to send in petitions and letters and so on.
