章節(jié)摘錄
美國黑人穆斯林領(lǐng)袖馬爾科姆·X US Black Mllslin Leader MalcOIm X 馬爾科姆·X的父親是黑人運(yùn)動(dòng)領(lǐng)袖.被三K黨殺害。他曾因盜竊入獄,獄中遇到一位黑人穆斯林,出獄后他皈依了伊斯蘭教,并對(duì)自己的姓氏做出解釋:黑人原有的非洲姓氏已被剝奪,美國黑人的姓氏其實(shí)是不清楚的,在擺脫白人強(qiáng)加的烙印化姓氏。重新找到自己的“靈魂的姓氏”之前。黑人的姓應(yīng)是X?! ∵@個(gè)曾經(jīng)的浪子開始了為黑人奮斗的宗教之路。他來到圣城麥加,找到了伊斯蘭真義,他不再信仰黑人主義,不再宣揚(yáng)種族獨(dú)立,而堅(jiān)持人類不論膚色一律平等,應(yīng)該和平自由地共處。他靠著對(duì)伊斯蘭的虔誠,依靠雄辯與理智,憑借個(gè)人魅力,成為美國黑人穆斯林的精神領(lǐng)袖。馬爾科姆的社會(huì)影響力越來越大,政府開始擔(dān)心,兄弟教派開始仇視,他被跟蹤、恐嚇。1965年他鎮(zhèn)定地走向他的最后一次演講,槍聲終結(jié)了他的生命。 從馬爾科姆領(lǐng)導(dǎo)美國黑人穆斯林開始.洶涌的美國黑潮開始了良性發(fā)展。受馬爾科姆精神影響最深刻的就是拳王穆罕默德·阿里。阿里成為美國黑人穆斯林代言人?!?·11”事件后,阿里宣布:“我不能干坐著聽讎界認(rèn)為伊斯蘭是含殺人的宗教。如果兇手是穆斯林,那么這。些11人是強(qiáng)奸了伊斯蘭的教叉。安拉是不支持殺人犯的?!薄 nit 14 Ig Nobel Prize Ig諾貝爾獎(jiǎng) 山于人們喜歡給事物進(jìn)行好壞分類的心理傾向,現(xiàn)代幽社會(huì)的幾乎所有獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)都在表彰人類的最好或最壞的極端行為,比如:獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)出色運(yùn)動(dòng)員的奧運(yùn)金牌,獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)優(yōu)秀科學(xué)家與作家的諾貝爾獎(jiǎng),調(diào)侃名人穿著的最差著裝獎(jiǎng)(Worst-dressed Prize)。唯一的例外是創(chuàng)立于1991年的Ig諾貝爾獎(jiǎng).該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)只獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)開創(chuàng)性,不關(guān)注所做發(fā)現(xiàn)的好壞或用途,獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)叨际切┳龀隽恕安荒芑虿粦?yīng)該被重復(fù)的”成就的人:1991年Ig諾貝爾化學(xué)獎(jiǎng)得主發(fā)現(xiàn)水分子的記憶能力;1995年Ig諾貝爾心理學(xué)獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)叱晒τ?xùn)練信鴿區(qū)分畢加索與莫奈的油畫;1996年Ig諾貝爾生物獎(jiǎng)得主發(fā)現(xiàn)酸奶刺激水蛭胃口…… Some people covet(覬覦)it,others flee from it.Some laugh with it,others laugh at it.Many praise it,a few criticize it,others are just confused.And many people are madly in love with it.It is the Ig No Prize. We’ve been awarding Ig Nobel Prizes since 1991.Each year,ten Ig Nobel Prizes are awarded.The selection criterion is simple.The prizes are for“achievements that cannot or should not be reproduced.” Examine that phrase carefully. It covers a lot of ground. It says nothing about whether a thing is good or bad. After something has been discovered or created, no one can later become the first to have made that discovery or creation. The "firstness" cannot be repeated. Thus, Don Featherstone (Ig Nobel Art Prize, 1996), the creator of the plastic pink flamingo , clearly qualifies under the "cannot be repeated" phrase. Similarly, Anders Barheim and Hogne Sandvik (Ig Nobel Biology Prize, 1996), who discovered that sour cream stimulates the appetite of leeches , but that garlic often kills them, clearly qualifies under the "cannot be repeated" phrase.
編輯推薦
I recognize its social value.I saw its ordered happiness,but a fever in my heart asked for a wilder course.There seemed tO me something alarming in such easy delights.In my heart was desire to live more dangerously.1 was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous shoals if I could only have change——-change and the excitement of unforeseen. 我承認(rèn)這種生活有社會(huì)價(jià)值,我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福,但我血液里的;中動(dòng)卻渴望一種更桀驁不馴的旅程。這樣的安逸中好像有一種叫我驚懼不安的東西。我的心渴望一種更加驚險(xiǎn)的生活。只要生活中還能有變遷一以及不可知的刺激,我愿意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖,奔赴暗礁滿布的海灘。
