Joan den urtean,
00:14
three of my family members were gruesomely murdered
1
14739
2507
familiako hiru kide
modu basatian erailak izan ziren
00:17
in a hate crime.
2
17270
1443
gorrotozko krimen batean.
00:20
It goes without saying that it's really difficult
3
20094
2334
Argi dago, niretzat oso zaila dela
00:22
for me to be here today,
4
22452
1723
gaur hemen egotea,
00:24
but my brother Deah,
5
24199
1583
baina Deah, nire nebak,
00:25
his wife Yusor,
6
25806
1416
Yusor, bere emazteak
00:27
and her sister Razan
7
27246
1531
eta Rizan bere ahizpak
00:28
don't give me much of a choice.
8
28801
1709
ez didate aukerarik eman.
00:31
I'm hopeful that by the end of this talk you will make a choice,
9
31274
3389
Itxaropena dut, hitzaldi hau amaitzerako
00:34
and join me in standing up against hate.
10
34687
2443
gorrotoaren aurka altxatzera batuko zaretela.
00:38
It's December 27, 2014:
11
38659

2014ko abenduaren 27a da:
00:41
the morning of my brother's wedding day.
12

2232
nire nebaren ezkontza eguneko goiza.
00:44
He asks me to come over and comb his hair
13

Etortzeko eta ilea orrazteko eskatzen dit
00:46
in preparation for his wedding photo shoot.

00:48
A 23-year-old, six-foot-three basketball, particularly Steph Curry, fanatic --
15
48614

23 urte, 1,90m, saskibaloi -batez ere Steph Curry- zalea.
00:53

00:57
An American kid in dental school ready to take on the world.
17
57684
3146
Haur amerikar bat, odontologia eskolan, mundua bereganatzeko prest.
01:01
When Deah and Yusor have their first dance,
18
61721
2761
Deah-n eta Yusor-en lehen dantzan,
01:04
I see the love in his eyes,
19
64506
1806
maitasuna ikusten nuen haien begietan,
01:06
her reciprocated joy,
20
66336
1630
elkarrekiko poza,
01:07
and my emotions begin to overwhelm me.
21
67990
2287
eta nire emozioak kontrolaezin bihurtu ziren.
01:11
I move to the back of the hall and burst into tears.
22
71175
2770
Gelaren atzeko aldera joan eta negarrez hasi nintzen.
01:14
And the second the song finishes playing,
23
74557
1988
Eta kantua amaitu bezain laster,
01:16
he beelines towards me,
24
76569
1187
nigana etorri zen,
01:17
buries me into his arms
25
77780
1251
besarkada bat eman eta
01:19
and rocks me back and forth.
26
79055
1420
aurrera eta atzera kulunkatu ninduen.
01:20
Even in that moment,
27
80934
1189
Une horretan ere,
01:22
when everything was so distracting,
28
82147
1877
hainbeste distrazioren artean,
01:24
he was attuned to me.
29
84048
1853
nik egiten nuenari adi zegoen.
01:25
He cups my face and says,
30
85925
1831
Nire masailean eskua jarri eta esan zidan,
01:27
"Suzanne,
31
87780
1180
"Suzanne,
01:28
I am who I am because of you.
32
88984
2284
naizena naiz zuri esker.
01:35
Thank you for everything.
33
95179
1664
Mila esker guztiagatik.
01:36
I love you."
34
96867
1171
Maite zaitut."
01:39
About a month later, I'm back home in North Carolina for a short visit,
35
99180
3483
Hilabete beranduago, berriz etxean nintzen ipar Carolinan, bisita motz batean
01:42
and on the last evening, I run upstairs to Deah's room,
36
102687
2711
eta azken arratsaldean, eskailerak igo eta Deah-ren gelara joan nintzen,
01:45
eager to find out how he's feeling being a newly married man.
37
105422
3295
ezkonberri bezala nola sentitzen zen jakin nahirik.
01:48
With a big boyish smile he says,
38
108741
2301
Eta mutiko baten irribarre zabalarekin, dio:
01:51
"I'm so happy. I love her. She's an amazing girl."
39
111066
3714
"Hain pozik nago. Maite dut. Neska ikaragarria da"
01:55
And she is.
40
115201
1237
Eta hala da.
01:56
At just 21, she'd recently been accepted to join Deah
41
116902
2938
21 urte betetzean Deah-rekin batera UNC-ko
01:59
at UNC dental school.
42
119864
1575
odontologia eskolan onartua izan zen.
02:01
She shared his love for basketball, and at her urging,
43
121974
3275
Saskibaloiarekiko zaletasuna partekatzen dute, eta berak eskatuta,
02:05
they started their honeymoon off attending their favorite team of the NBA,
44
125273
3923
eztei bidaia euren NBA-ko talde gustokoena ikusten hasi zuten,
02:09
the LA Lakers.
45
129220
1405
LA Lakers.
02:10
I mean, check out that form.
46
130649
1752
Ikusi hau.
02:12
(Laughter)
47
132425
3227
(Barreak)
02:19
I'll never forget that moment sitting there with him --
48
139233
2771
Ez dut sekula ahaztuko, han eserita geunden unea
02:22
how free he was in his happiness.
49
142028
2500
zein libre zegoen bere zoriontasunean.
02:24
My littler brother, a basketball-obsessed kid,
50
144552
2465
Nire anaia txikia, saskibaloiarekin obsesionatutako haurra,
02:27
had become and transformed into an accomplished young man.
51
147041
3806
gizon gazte duin bat bihurtu da.
02:31
He was at the top of his dental school class,
52
151448
2151
Bere odontologia klaseko onenen artean zen,
02:33
and alongside Yusor and Razan,
53
153623
1577
eta Yusor eta Razan-ekin batera
02:35
was involved in local and international community service projects
54
155224
4216
komunitatearen aldeko proiektuetan hartzen zuen parte
02:39
dedicated to the homeless and refugees,
55
159464
2329
errefuxiatuei eta etxerik gabekoei lagunduz,
02:41
including a dental relief trip they were planning
56
161817
2287
Turkiako Siriar errefuxiatuei laguntzeko
02:44
for Syrian refugees in Turkey.
57
164128
1898
prestatzen ari ziren bidaia barne.
02:46
Razan, at just 19,
58
166668
2128
Razan-ek, 19 urterekin,
02:48
used her creativity as an architectural engineering student
59
168820
3154
arkitektura ingenieri ikasle gisa, sormena erabili zuen
02:51
to serve those around her,
60
171998
1691
bere ingurukoei laguntzeko,
02:53
making care packages for the local homeless,
61
173713
2247
besteak beste, etxerik gabekoentzat
02:55
among other projects.
62
175984
1666
zaintza poltsak egiten.
02:58
That is who they were.
63
178235
1396
Horiek ziren.
03:01
Standing there that night,
64
181423
1240
Gau hartan, arnasa sakon hartu
03:02
I take a deep breath and look at Deah and tell him,
65
182687
2941
Deah-ri begiratu eta esan nion,
03:05
"I have never been more proud of you than I am in this moment."
66
185652
3489
"ez naiz sekula zutaz hain harro egon".
03:09
He pulls me into his tall frame,
67
189575
1805
Beragana erakarri ninduen,
03:11
hugs me goodnight,
68
191404
1163
eta gabon esan.
03:12
and I leave the next morning without waking him
69
192591
2230
Hurrengo goizean bera esnatu gabe
03:14
to go back to San Francisco.
70
194845
1440
San Franciscora itzuli nintzen.
03:16
That is the last time I ever hug him.
71
196958
2287
Hura izan zen besarkatu nuen azken aldia.
03:22
Ten days later, I'm on call at San Francisco General Hospital
72
202617
2998
Hamar egun beranduago, guardian nengoen San Franciscoko ospitale orokorrean
03:25
when I receive a barrage of vague text messages expressing condolences.
73
205639
3846
doluminak adierazten hainbat mezu jaso nituenean.
03:29
Confused, I call my father, who calmly intones,
74
209509
2808
Nahastuta, aitari deitu nion, eta honek tonu lasaian esan zidan,
03:32
"There's been a shooting in Deah's neighborhood in Chapel Hill.
75
212341
3001
"Tiroketa bat egon da Deah-ren auzoan, Chapel Hill-en.
03:35
It's on lock-down. That's all we know."
76
215366
1992
Guztia itxita dago. Hori da dakiguna."
03:37
I hang up and quickly Google, "shooting in Chapel Hill."
77
217829
2993
Eseki eta Google-n bilatu nuen: "tiroketa Chapel Hillen".
03:41
One hit comes up.
78
221354
1523
Emaitza bat.
03:42
Quote:
79
222901
1422
Hau zioen:
03:44
"Three people were shot in the back of the head
80
224347
2261
"Hiru pertsonak tiro bat jaso dute buruan,
03:46
and confirmed dead on the scene."
81
226632
1744
haien heriotza lekuan bertan egiaztatu dute."
03:48
Something in me just knows.
82
228819
1647
Nire barnean zerbaitek bazekien.
03:50
I fling out of my chair and faint onto the gritty hospital floor,
83
230490
3120
Aulkitik altxa eta ospitaleko lurrean erori nintzen,
03:53
wailing.
84
233634
1250
negarrez.
03:55
I take the first red-eye out of San Francisco,
85
235419
2338
San Franciscotik ateratzen zen lehen hegazkina hartu nuen,
03:57
numb and disoriented.
86
237781
1237
nahastuta eta galduta.
03:59
I walk into my childhood home and faint into my parents' arms,
87
239443
3505
Nire txikitako etxean sartu eta gurasoen besoetara jo nuen,
04:02
sobbing.
88
242972
1182
negarrez.
04:04
I then run up to Deah's room as I did so many times before,
89
244178
2918
Deah-ren gelara joan nitzen, hainbestetan bezala,
04:07
just looking for him,
90
247120
2048
bere bila, eta,
04:09
only to find a void that will never be filled.
91
249192
2593
sekula beteko ez den hutsune bat aurkitu nuen.
04:15
Investigation and autopsy reports eventually revealed
92
255769
3237
Ikerketak eta autopsiaren txostenak
04:19
the sequence of events.
93
259030
1519
gertaeren sekuentzia argitu zuten.
04:22
Deah had just gotten off the bus from class,
94
262069
2707
Deah eskolatik bueltako autobusetik jetsi berria zen,
04:24
Razan was visiting for dinner,
95
264800
1579
Razan afaltzera etorria zen,
04:26
already at home with Yusor.
96
266403
1575
eta Yusor-ekin etxean zen.
04:28
As they began to eat, they heard a knock on the door.
97
268550
2834
Afaltzen hasi zirenean, norbaitek atea jo zuen.
04:31
When Deah opened it,
98
271408
2028
Deah-k ireki zuenean,
04:33
their neighbor proceeded to fire multiple shots at him.
99
273460
2751
bizilagunak hainbat tiro bota zizkion.
04:38
According to 911 calls,
100
278787
1530
911-era egindako deiek diotenez,
04:40
the girls were heard screaming.
101
280341
2037
nesken oihuak entzun ziren.
04:43
The man turned towards the kitchen and fired a single shot into Yusor's hip,
102
283516
3657
Gizona sukaldera joan eta Yusor-en gerrira tirokatu zuen,
04:47
immobilizing her.
103
287197
1150
mugitu ezinik utziaz.
04:48
He then approached her from behind,
104
288371
1768
Orduan atzetik gerturatu,
04:50
pressed the barrel of his gun against her head,
105
290163
2245
pistola bere buruaren aurka ipini,
04:52
and with a single bullet, lacerated her midbrain.
106
292432
2715
eta bala bakarrarekin bere garuna zauritu zuen.
04:56
He then turned towards Razan, who was screaming for her life,
107
296365
3089
Orduan, bere bizitzaren alde oihuka zegoen Razan-engana itzuli,
04:59
and, execution-style, with a single bullet
108
299478
2162
eta, exekuzioa balitz bezala, buruaren atzeko aldean
05:03
to the back of the head,
109
303927
1441
bala batekin,
05:05
killed her.
110
305392
1180
hil zuen.
05:07
On his way out,
111
307754
1151
Kanpora bidean,
05:08
he shot Deah one last time -- a bullet in the mouth --
112
308929
3277
Deah beste behin tirokatu zuen -ahoan bala bat-
05:12
for a total of eight bullets:
113
312230
1851
guztira zortzi bala:
05:14
two lodged in the head,
114
314105
1854
bi buruan,
05:15
two in his chest
115
315983
1511
bi bularrean
05:17
and the rest in his extremities.
116
317518
2030
eta besteak gorputz adarretan.
05:21
Deah, Yusor and Razan were executed
117
321377
2285
Deah, Yusor eta Razan exekutatuak izan ziren
05:23
in a place that was meant to be safe: their home.
118
323686
3358
segurua izan beharko lukeen lekuan: etxean.
05:27
For months, this man had been harassing them:
119
327821
2494
Hilabeteetan gizon horren jazarpena jasan zuten:
05:30
knocking on their door,
120
330339
1405
ate-joka,
05:31
brandishing his gun on a couple of occasions.
121
331768
2432
bere pistola erakutsiz pare bat aldiz.
05:34
His Facebook was cluttered with anti-religion posts.
122
334579
3045
Bere Facebook-a erlijioaren aurkako mezuz betea zegoen.
05:38
Yusor felt particularly threatened by him.
123
338634
2316
Yusor bereziki bildurtuta zegoen.
05:41
As she was moving in,
124
341947
1524
Etxe horretara joatean,
05:44
he told Yusor and her mom that he didn't like the way they looked.
125
344500
3498
Yusor-i eta bere amari esan zien ez zitzaiola gustatzen haien itxura.
05:48
In response, Yusor's mom told her to be kind to her neighbor,
126
348863
3418
Yusor-en amak bizilagunarekin atsegina izateko esan zion,
05:52
that as he got to know them,
127
352305
1357
ezagutzen ziren heinean,
05:53
he'd see them for who they were.
128
353686
1743
benetan zein ziren ikusiko zutela.
05:57
I guess we've all become so numb to the hatred
129
357280
2516
Guztiok gorrotora ohitu gara,
05:59
that we couldn't have ever imagined it turning into fatal violence.
130
359820
3535
sekula ez genuen imaginatuko hau gertatuko zenik.
06:05
The man who murdered my brother turned himself in to the police
131
365685
2971
Nire anaia hil zuen gizona poliziara joan zen,
06:08
shortly after the murders,
132
368680
1812
hilketak egin ostean,
06:10
saying he killed three kids,
133
370516
2230
hiru haur erail zituela esanez,
06:12
execution-style,
134
372770
1547
exekuzio moduan,
06:14
over a parking dispute.
135
374341
1725
aparkalekuko liskar baten ostean.
06:17
The police issued a premature public statement that morning,
136
377321
2883
Goiz horretan, poliziak adierazpen publiko goiztiar bat egin zuen,
06:20
echoing his claims without bothering to question it
137
380228
2444
gizonak esandakoa esanez, gehiago galdetu edo
06:22
or further investigate.
138
382696
1451
ikertu gabe.
06:24
It turns out there was no parking dispute.
139
384703
3047
Gauza da ez zegoela aparkalekuko liskarrik.
06:27
There was no argument.
140
387774
1606
Ez zegoen argudiorik.
06:29
No violation.
141
389404
1278
Ez arau-hausterik.
06:31
But the damage was already done.
142
391197
1655
Baina mina egina zegoen.
06:33
In a 24-hour media cycle,
143
393329
2053
24 orduko medioen ziklo batean,
06:35
the words "parking dispute" had already become the go-to sound bite.
144
395406
3437
"aparkalekuko liskarra" esaldia jada ekidin ezina zen.
06:41
I sit on my brother's bed and remember his words,
145
401578
2595
Anaiaren ohean eseri eta bere hitzak oroitzen ditut,
06:44
the words he gave me so freely and with so much love,
146
404763
3239
hain aske eta maitasunez esan zidana,
06:48
"I am who I am because of you."
147
408026
2231
"naizena naiz zuri esker".
06:50
That's what it takes for me to climb through my crippling grief
148
410940
3016
Horretxek ematen dit indarra nire mina gainditu
06:53
and speak out.
149
413980
1157
eta hitz egiteko.
06:55
I cannot let my family's deaths be diminished to a segment
150
415161
2782
Ezin dut nire familiaren heriotzak,
06:57
that is barely discussed on local news.
151
417967
2098
herriko albisteetara mugatzea onartu.
07:00
They were murdered by their neighbor because of their faith,
152
420730
3429
Euren fedeagatik erail zituen bizilagunak,
07:04
because of a piece of cloth they chose to don on their heads,
153
424183
3458
buruan ipintzea erabaki zuten zapi batengatik,
07:07
because they were visibly Muslim.
154
427665
1993
musulmanak zirelako.
07:13
Some of the rage I felt at the time
155
433720
1699
Une hartan nuen amorruaren zati bat zera zen, paperak alderantziz balira,
07:15
was that if roles were reversed,
156
435443
1921
07:17
and an Arab, Muslim or Muslim-appearing person
157
437388
3815
eta arabe, musulman edo musulman itxurako batek
07:21
had killed three white American college students execution-style,
158
441227
4854
hiru amerikar unibertsitario hil balitu exekuzio bat balitz bezala,
07:26
in their home,
159
446105
1156
euren etxean,
07:27
what would we have called it?
160
447285
1494
nola deituko genion?
07:30
A terrorist attack.
161
450041
1451
Eraso terrorista.
07:32
When white men commit acts of violence in the US,
162
452304
3171
AEBetan gizon zuriek ekintza biolentoak egitean,
07:35
they're lone wolves,
163
455499
1220
otso bakartiak dira,
07:36
mentally ill
164
456743
1190
arazo mentaldunak
07:37
or driven by a parking dispute.
165
457957
1824
edo aparkalekuko liskarren ondoriozkoak.
07:43
I know that I have to give my family voice,
166
463323
2588
Badakit nire familiari ahotsa jarri behar diodala,
07:45
and I do the only thing I know how:
167
465935
2196
eta egiten nekien bakarra egin nuen:
07:48
I send a Facebook message to everyone I know in media.
168
468155
2815
komunikabideetan lan egiten zuten ezagun guztiei Facebooketik mezu bat bidali nien.
07:53
A couple of hours later,
169
473253
1451
Pare bat ordu geroago,
07:54
in the midst of a chaotic house overflowing with friends and family,
170
474728
3794
etxe kaotiko batean, lagun eta familiakidez gainezka,
07:58
our neighbor Neal comes over, sits down next to my parents
171
478546
3050
gure bizilagun Neal agertu zen, gurasoen ondoan eseri
08:01
and asks, "What can I do?"
172
481620
2129
eta galdetu zuen "zer egin dezaket?"
08:04
Neal had over two decades of experience in journalism,
173
484933
3602
Neal-ek 20 urteko esperientzia zuen kazetaritzan,
08:08
but he makes it clear that he's not there in his capacity as journalist,
174
488559
3405
baina argi utzi zuen ez zela kazetari bezala etorri,
08:11
but as a neighbor who wants to help.
175
491988
1853
lagundu nahi zuen bizilagun bezala baizik.
08:14
I ask him what he thinks we should do,
176
494367
1841
Egin behar genuenari buruzko iritzia eskatu nion,
08:16
given the bombardment of local media interview requests.
177
496232
3054
gertuko komunikabideen elkarrizketa eskaeren inguruan.
08:19
He offers to set up a press conference at a local community center.
178
499310
4812
Herriko lokal batean prentsa konferentzia bat antolatzera eskeini zen.
08:25
Even now I don't have the words to thank him.
179
505431
2436
Oraindik ez daukat bera eskertzeko hitzik.
08:28
"Just tell me when, and I'll have all the news channels present," he said.
180
508649
3696
"Esan noiz eta han izango ditut berri emaile kate guztiak" esan zuen.
08:32
He did for us what we could not do for ourselves
181
512870
2268
Guk egin ezin genuena egin zuen guretzat,
08:35
in a moment of devastation.
182
515162
1652
oso une gogor hartan.
08:37
I delivered the press statement,
183
517737
1595
Prentsaurrekoa eman nuen,
08:39
still wearing scrubs from the previous night.
184
519356
2127
oraindik aurreko eguneko blusa soinean.
08:41
And in under 24 hours from the murders,
185
521507
2011
Eta hilketak gertatu eta 24 ordu baino lehen,
08:43
I'm on CNN being interviewed by Anderson Cooper.
186
523542
2749
CNN-n nengoen, Anderson Cooper elkarrizketatzen ari zitzaidan.
08:47
The following day, major newspapers --
187
527030
1872
Hurrengo egunean, egunkari garrantzitsuek -
08:48
including the New York Times, Chicago Tribune --
188
528926
2751
New York Times, Chicago Tribune -
08:51
published stories about Deah, Yusor and Razan,
189
531701
2631
Deah, Yusor eta Razan-en berriak zituzten,
08:54
allowing us to reclaim the narrative
190
534356
2175
narrazioa egitea ahalbideratuz, eta
08:56
and call attention the mainstreaming of anti-Muslim hatred.
191
536555
3493
musulmanen aurkako gorrotoa salatuz.
09:03
These days,
192
543323
1168
Egun haietan, bazirudien
09:04
it feels like Islamophobia is a socially acceptable form of bigotry.
193
544515
4580
islamofobia sozialki onartu zitekeen fanatismo mota bat zela.
09:09
We just have to put up with it and smile.
194
549987
2312
Onartu egin behar genuen, eta irribarre egin.
09:12
The nasty stares,
195
552919
1584
Begirada txarrak,
09:14
the palpable fear when boarding a plane,
196
554527
2403
besteen beldurra hegazkinera igotzean,
09:16
the random pat downs at airports that happen 99 percent of the time.
197
556954
4296
zorizko miaketak aireportuetan, denboraren %99an.
09:22
It doesn't stop there.
198
562148
1347
Ez da hor geratzen.
09:24
We have politicians reaping political and financial gains off our backs.
199
564064
4200
Politikoek onura ekonomiko eta politikoak ateratzen dituzte gure kontura.
09:28
Here in the US,
200
568288
1160
Hemen AEBetan,
09:29
we have presidential candidates like Donald Trump,
201
569472
2367
Donald Trump bezalako hautagaiak ditugu,
09:31
casually calling to register American Muslims,
202
571863
2403
amerikar musulmanei erregistratzeko eskatuz,
09:34
and ban Muslim immigrants and refugees from entering this country.
203
574290
3435
eta musulman inmigrante eta errefuxiatuei herrialdean sartzea eragotziz.
09:38
It is no coincidence that hate crimes rise
204
578353
2724
Ez da kointzidentzia gorroto krimenen tasak
09:41
in parallel with election cycles.
205
581101
2489
hauteskunde zikloekin batera handitzea.
09:46
Just a couple months ago, Khalid Jabara,
206
586748
2284
Duela pare bat hilabete, Khalid Jabara,
09:49
a Lebanese-American Christian,
207
589056
1800
Amerikar-liberiar Kristau bat,
09:50
was murdered in Oklahoma by his neighbor --
208
590880
2756
bere bizilagunak erail zuen, Oklahoman -
09:53
a man who called him a "filthy Arab."
209
593660
2250
"Arabe zikina" deitu zion gizon batek.
09:56
This man was previously jailed for a mere 8 months,
210
596627
2711
Gizon hau aurretik 8 hilabetez gartzelan egon zen,
09:59
after attempting run over Khalid's mother with his car.
211
599362
3123
Khalid-en ama kotxez harrapatzen saiatu ostean.
10:03
Chances are you haven't heard Khalid's story,
212
603627
2854
Posible da Khalid-en berririk ez izatea,
10:06
because it didn't make it to national news.
213
606505
2355
ez zelako berri nazionaletara iritsi.
10:09
The least we can do is call it what it is:
214
609232
2773
Gutxienez bere izenez deitu behar dugu:
10:12
a hate crime.
215
612029
1316
Gorroto krimena.
10:13
The least we can do is talk about it,
216
613369
2238
Gutxienez horri buruz hitz egin behar dugu,
10:16
because violence and hatred doesn't just happen in a vacuum.
217
616184
3379
biolentzia eta gorrotoa ez baitira hutsetik sortzen.
10:23
Not long after coming back to work,
218
623759
1695
Lanera bueltatu eta gutxira,
10:25
I'm the senior on rounds in the hospital,
219
625478
1978
ospitalean errondak egiten dituen esperientziadunena naiz,
10:27
when one of my patients looks over at my colleague,
220
627480
2616
nire gaixoetako batek lankide bati begiratu,
10:30
gestures around her face and says, "San Bernardino,"
221
630120
3553
keinuak egin eta esan zuen "San Bernardino",
10:33
referencing a recent terrorist attack.
222
633697
1977
eraso terrorista bati erreferentzi eginez.
10:36
Here I am having just lost three family members to Islamophobia,
223
636596
3564
Hemen nago, islamofobiagatik familiako hiru kide galdu berritan,
10:40
having been a vocal advocate within my program
224
640184
2172
mikroerasoen aurrean nola jokatu
10:42
on how to deal with such microaggressions,
225
642380
2227
lantzen den nire programako, bozeramaile,
10:44
and yet --
226
644631
1159
eta hala ere -
10:45
silence.
227
645814
1162
isiltasuna.
10:47
I was disheartened.
228
647535
1266
Gogorik gabe nengoen.
10:49
Humiliated.
229
649207
1332
Umiliatuta.
10:51
Days later rounding on the same patient,
230
651413
1935
Egun batzuk beranduago, gaixo berak
10:53
she looks at me and says,
231
653372
1316
begiratu eta esan zidan,
10:54
"Your people are killing people in Los Angeles."
232
654712
3090
"Zure jendea Los Angelesen jendea hiltzen ari da."
10:59
I look around expectantly.
233
659216
2063
Ingurura begiratu nuen, adi-adi.
11:01
Again:
234
661303
1321
Berriro:
11:02
silence.
235
662648
1200
isiltasuna.
11:04
I realize that yet again,
236
664865
1730
Konturatu nintzen berriro ere,
11:06
I have to speak up for myself.
237
666619
1775
niregatik hitz egin behar nuela.
11:09
I sit on her bed and gently ask her,
238
669800
2484
Bere ohean eseri eta modu atseginean galdetu nion,
11:12
"Have I ever done anything but treat you with respect and kindness?
239
672308
3969
"Zu errespetuz eta goxotasunez tratatzea ez den zerbait egin dut inoiz?"
11:17
Have I done anything but give you compassionate care?"
240
677395
3186
"Modu errukiorrean zaintzea ez den zerbait egin dut inoiz?"
11:21
She looks down and realizes what she said was wrong,
241
681143
2435
Burua makurtu eta esan zuena oker zegoela konturatu zen,
11:23
and in front of the entire team,
242
683602
1735
eta talde osoaren aurrean,
11:25
she apologizes and says,
243
685361
1516
barkamena eskatu eta esan zuen:
11:26
"I should know better. I'm Mexican-American.
244
686901
2586
"Hobeto jokatu behar nuen. Mexikar amerikarra naiz,
11:29
I receive this kind of treatment all the time."
245
689511
2432
horrelako tratua jasaten dut beti."
11:35
Many of us experience microaggressions on a daily basis.
246
695339
3279
Gutako askok jasaten ditugu mikroerasoak egunero.
11:39
Odds are you may have experienced it,
247
699156
2345
Baliteke zuek ere jasan izana,
11:41
whether for your race,
248
701525
1399
arrazagatik,
11:42
gender,
249
702948
1151
generoagatik,
11:44
sexuality
250
704123
1151
sexualitateagatik
11:45
or religious beliefs.
251
705298
1409
edo erlijio sinesmenengatik.
11:46
We've all been in situations where we've witnessed something wrong
252
706731
3133
Guztiok izan gara egoera okerren testigu,
11:49
and didn't speak up.
253
709888
1260
eta ez dugu hitz egin.
11:51
Maybe we weren't equipped with the tools to respond in the moment.
254
711172
3657
Agian ez genituen hitz egin ahal izateko tresnak.
11:54
Maybe we weren't even aware of our own implicit biases.
255
714853
3436
Agian ez ginen geure alborapenez kontziente.
11:59
We can all agree that bigotry is unacceptable,
256
719466
3119
Guztiok ados gaude fanatismoa onartezina dela,
12:02
but when we see it,
257
722609
1205
baina hura ikustean,
12:03
we're silent,
258
723838
1167
isilik egoten gara,
12:05
because it makes us uncomfortable.
259
725029
1781
ezeroso sentiarazten gaituelako.
12:07
But stepping right into that discomfort
260
727834
2154
Baina ezerosotasun horretan sartzeak
12:10
means you are also stepping into the ally zone.
261
730012
2568
zona aliatuan sartzea ere esan nahi du.
12:13
There may be over three million Muslims in America.
262
733472
3176
Ameriketan 3 milioi musulman inguru daude.
12:16
That's still just one percent of the total population.
263
736672
3075
Populazio osoaren ehuneko bat da hori.
12:20
Martin Luther King once said,
264
740966
1601
Martin Luther King-ek esan zuen,
12:22
"In the end,
265
742591
1340
"Azkenean,
12:23
we will remember not the words of our enemies,
266
743955
2506
ez ditugu etsaien hitzak gogoratuko,
12:27
but the silence of our friends."
267
747098
2141
lagunen isiltasuna baizik."
12:33
So what made my neighbor Neal's allyship so profound?
268
753650
3038
Zerk egin zuen nire bizilagun Neal-en laguntza hain garrantzitsua?
12:37
A couple of things.
269
757313
1320
Gauza pare batek.
12:39
He was there as a neighbor who cared,
270
759170
2157
Hor zegoen arduratzen zen bizilagun gisa,
12:41
but he was also bringing in his professional expertise and resources
271
761351
3192
baina bere esperientzia eta gaitasun profesionala ere eskeini zuen,
12:44
when the moment called for it.
272
764567
1543
hura behar zenean.
12:46
Others have done the same.
273
766926
1622
Beste batzuek berdina egin dute.
12:49
Larycia Hawkins drew on her platform
274
769113
2461
Larycia Hawkins-ek bere oholtza erabili du,
12:51
as the first tenured African-American professor at Wheaton College
275
771598
3488
Wheaton College-eko lehen irakasle titular Afrikar Amerikar bezala,
12:55
to wear a hijab in solidarity
276
775110
1654
egunero diskriminatuak diren emakumeekiko
12:56
with Muslim women who face discrimination every day.
277
776788
2826
solidaritatez, hijab bat jazteko.
13:00
As a result, she lost her job.
278
780070
2413
Ondorioz, bere lana galdu zuen.
13:03
Within a month,
279
783821
1150
Hilabetean
13:04
she joined the faculty at the University of Virginia,
280
784995
2523
Virginiako Unibertsitateko fakultatean zen
13:07
where she now works on pluralism, race, faith and culture.
281
787542
3641
pluralitatea, arraza, fedea eta kultura lantzen ditu bertan.
13:12
Reddit cofounder, Alexis Ohanian,
282
792562
2360
Alexis Ohanian-ek, Reddit-en kofundatzaileak,
13:14
demonstrated that not all active allyship needs to be so serious.
283
794946
3728
laguntza aktibo guztiak hain serioak izan beharrik ez dutela erakutsi zuen.
13:19
He stepped up to support a 15-year-old Muslim girl's mission
284
799057
2876
15 urteko neska musulman baten ideiaren alde egin zuen,
13:21
to introduce a hijab emoji.
285
801957
2047
hijabdun emoji bat sortzeko.
13:24
(Laughter)
286
804028
1513
(Barreak)
13:26
It's a simple gesture,
287
806035
1589
Keinu sinple bat da,
13:27
but it has a significant subconscious impact
288
807648
2537
baina inpaktu subkontziente esanguratsu bat du
13:30
on normalizing and humanizing Muslims,
289
810209
3239
musulmanen humanizazioan eta normalizazioan,
13:33
including the community as a part of an "us"
290
813472
2645
komunitatean "gure" zati bihurtzean
13:36
instead of an "other."
291
816141
1684
"haien" zati izan beharrean.
13:39
The editor in chief of Women's Running magazine
292
819352
2317
Women's Running aldizkariaren editore nagusiak
13:41
just put the first hijabi to ever be on the cover of a US fitness magazine.
293
821693
4087
AEBetako fitness aldizkari bateko azalean hijab bat jarri zuen lehen aldiz.
13:47
These are all very different examples
294
827001
1762
Hauek beraien plataformak eta baliabideak erabili dituztenen hainbat adibide dira,
13:48
