今天這個回答讓我想起了塔吉克族
中國唯一白種人民族
經典影片《冰山上的來客》
背景講述的就是塔吉克族
人文地理真是很有意思的學科呢
問題:
What is something most people don't know about Africa?
人們對非洲有哪些誤解?
回答:
Lucas Cutrim:
Africans are not only black.
其實非洲人不全是黑人。
When you think of Africans, you probably think of those people:
說起非洲人的時候,你可能第一反應是這種膚色的:
First image after typing “Africans” on Google.
在谷歌上搜“非洲人”,出來的第一張圖片
However, what most people are not aware of, is that these people are also Africans.
然而,大多數人可能不知道的是,下面這些也是非洲人。
North Africans are mostly of Arab and Berber influence, they’re not black. South Africa, and to some extent Angola, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, have sizable European white populations.
北非人主要是阿拉伯和柏柏爾人種,他們都不是黑種人。南非,某種程度上也包含安哥拉,莫桑比克,津巴布韋有相當大比例的歐洲白人人口。
This is why I dislike the term “African American” as a synonym to black. Charlize Theron and Candice Swanepoel are Africans as much as white Americans are from the Americas.
這就是為什麼我不喜歡“非洲裔美國人”作為黑人的同義詞。查理茲·塞隆和坎迪斯·斯瓦內普爾都是非洲人,但誰又能把她們的膚色和美國白人區分開來呢。
What also bothers me is when people are called African Americans when they have absolutely no link to America, but due to their color. This happened to her:
還有一點困擾我的是,有的人雖然被稱為“非洲裔美國人”,但是他們和美國一點關係也沒有,一切僅僅因為她們的膚色。比如她:
Naomi Harris is not African American. She’s British.
娜奧米·哈里斯並不是非裔美國人,她是英國人。
