How we can end sexual harassment at work | Gretchen Carlson

Prevodilac: Mirjana Čutura Lektor: Tijana Mihajlović

"All I wanted was a much-deserved promotion,

„Sve što sam želela je zasluženo unapređenje,

and he told me to 'Get up on the desk

a on mi je rekao: 'Popni se na sto i raširi ih.'“

and spread 'em.'"

"All the men in my office wrote down on a piece of paper

„Svi muškarci u mojoj kancelariji napisali su na papir

the sexual favors that I could do for them.

koje seksualne usluge bih mogla da im pružim.

All I had asked for was an office with a window."

Sve što sam tražila je bila kancelarija sa prozorom.“

"I asked for his advice about how I could get a bill out of committee;

„Pitala sam ga za savet kako mogu da izdejstvujem nacrt zakona od komiteta;

he asked me if I brought my kneepads."

on me je pitao da li sam ponela štitnike za kolena.“

Those are just a few of the horrific stories

Ovo je samo nekoliko užasavajućih priča koje sam čula od žena tokom prošle godine

that I heard from women over the last year,

as I've been investigating workplace sexual harassment.

dok sam istraživala seksualno uznemiravanje na radnom mestu.

And what I found out

Otkrila sam da je to epidemija prisutna širom sveta.

is that it's an epidemic across the world.

It's a horrifying reality for millions of women,

To je užasavajuća stvarnost miliona žena

when all they want to do every day

kad sve što žele da rade jeste da svaki dan idu na posao.

is go to work.

Sexual harassment doesn't discriminate.

Seksualno uznemiravanje ne pravi razlike.

You can wear a skirt,

Možete nositi suknju,

hospital scrubs,

medicinski mantil

army fatigues.

ili kamuflažnu vojnu uniformu.

You can be young or old,

Možete biti mlade ili stare,

married or single,

udate ili ne,

black or white.

crne ili bele.

You can be a Republican, a Democrat or an Independent.

Možete podržavati demokrate, republikance ili nezavisne kandidate.

I heard from so many women:

Čula sam od toliko mnogo žena:

police officers,

policajki,

members of our military,

članica naše vojske,

financial assistants,

finansijskih pomoćnica,

actors, engineers, lawyers,

glumica, inženjerki, advokatica,

bankers, accountants, teachers ...

bankarki, računovođa, učiteljica,

journalists.

novinarki.

Sexual harassment, it turns out,

Seksualno uznemiravanje, izgleda, nije vezano za seks.

is not about sex.

It's about power,

Vezano je za moć i za ono što vam neko radi

and about what somebody does to you

to try and take away your power.

u pokušavaju da vam oduzme moć.

And I'm here today

Ovde sam danas

to encourage you to know that you can take that power back.

da vas ohrabrim da shvatite da možete povratiti tu moć.

(Applause)

On July 6, 2016,

Dana 6. jula 2016. godine

I jumped off a cliff all by myself.

skočila sam u nepoznato sasvim sama.

It was the scariest moment of my life;

Bio je to najstrašniji trenutak mog života;

an excruciating choice to make.

mučan izbor.

I fell into an abyss all alone,

Pala sam u ambis sasvim sama

not knowing what would be below.

i nisam znala šta me dole čeka.

But then, something miraculous started to happen.

Ali, tada se nešto čudesno počelo dešavati.

Thousands of women started reaching out to me

Hiljade žena su počele da kontaktiraju sa mnom

to share their own stories of pain and agony and shame.

da bi podelile svoje priče o bolu, agoniji i stidu.

They told me that I became their voice --

Rekle su mi da sam postala njihov glas -

they were voiceless.

one nisu imale glas.

And suddenly, I realized that even in the 21st century,

Iznenada sam shvatila da čak i u 21. veku

every woman still has a story.

svaka žena i dalje ima priču.

Like Joyce,

Kao Džojs,

a flight attendant supervisor

načelnica stjuardesa,

whose boss, in meetings every day,

kojoj bi šef na sastancima svakog dana

would tell her about the porn that he'd watched the night before

govorio o porno filmovima koje je gledao prethodne noći

while drawing penises on his notepad.

dok bi crtao penise u svom blokčetu.

She went to complain.

Otišla je da se žali.

She was called "crazy" and fired.

Nazvali su je „ludom“ i otpustili su je.

Like Joanne, Wall Street banker.

Kao Džoana, bankarka na Vol Stritu.

Her male colleagues would call her that vile c-word every day.

Njene kolege su je stalno oslovljavale groznom rečju koja počinje na „p“.

She complained --

Žalila se.

labeled a troublemaker,

Obeležena je kao smutljivac

never to do another Wall Street deal again.

i nikada neće moći da sklopi nijedan posao na Vol Stritu.

Like Elizabeth, an army officer.

Kao Elizabet, vojni oficir.

Her male subordinates would wave one-dollar bills in her face,

Njene podređene muške kolege su joj mahale novčanicama od jednog dolara ispred lica

and say, "Dance for me!"

i govorile: „Pleši za mene!“

And when she went to complain to a major,

A kada je otišla da se požali majoru,

he said, "What? Only one dollar?

rekao je: „Šta? Samo jedan dolar?

You're worth at least five or ten!"

Vrediš makar pet ili deset!“

After reading,

Nakon što sam pročitala,

replying to all

odgovorila na sve

and crying over all of these emails,

i plakala nad svim ovim imejlovima,

I realized I had so much work to do.

shvatila sam da imam puno toga da uradim.

Here are the startling facts:

Ovo su potresne činjenice -

one in three women -- that we know of --

jedna od tri žena, koliko znamo,

have been sexually harassed in the workplace.

je bila žrtva seksualnog uznemiravanja na radnom mestu.

Seventy-one percent of those incidences never get reported.

Sedamdeset jedan posto ovih incidenata nikad se ne prijavi.

Why?

Zašto?

Because when women come forward,

Zato što, kada žene progovore o tome,

they're still called liars and troublemakers

još uvek ih nazivaju lažovima i smutljivcima

and demeaned and trashed

i bivaju ponižene, odbačene, degradirane, stavljene na crnu listu i otpuštene.

and demoted and blacklisted

and fired.

Reporting sexual harassment can be, in many cases, career-ending.

Prijavljivanje seksualnog uznemiravanja veoma često može značiti kraj karijere.

Of all the women that reached out to me,

Od svih žena koje su kontaktirale sa mnom,

almost none are still today working in their chosen profession,

skoro nijedna danas više ne radi u svojoj izabranoj profesiji

and that is outrageous.

i to je nečuveno.

I, too, was silent in the beginning.

Ja sam, takođe, ćutala na početku.

It happened to me at the end of my year as Miss America,

Meni se to desilo na kraju moje godine kao Mis Amerike

when I was meeting with a very high-ranking TV executive

kada sam se sastala sa TV direktorom na visokom položaju u Njujorku.

in New York City.

Mislila sam da mi je pomogao tokom tog dana dok je puno telefonirao.

I thought he was helping me throughout the day,

making a lot of phone calls.

We went to dinner,

Otišli smo na večeru,

a na zadnjem sedištu automobila iznenada se bacio na mene

and in the back seat of a car, he suddenly lunged on top of me

i ugurao mi jezik u grlo.

and stuck his tongue down my throat.

I didn't realize that to "get into the business" -- silly me --

Bila sam naivna i nisam shvatila da je, „da bi pokrenuo moju karijeru“,

he also intended to get into my pants.

takođe nameravao da se uvuče u moje gaćice.

And just a week later,

Samo nedelju dana kasnije

when I was in Los Angeles meeting with a high-ranking publicist,

kad sam se sastala sa izdavačem na visokom položaju u Los Anđelesu,

it happened again.

to se opet dogodilo.

Again, in a car.

Opet u automobilu.

And he took my neck in his hand,

Uhvatio me je za vrat svojom rukom

and he shoved my head so hard into his crotch,

i zabio mi glavu toliko snažno u njegovo međunožje

I couldn't breathe.

da nisam mogla da dišem.

These are the events that suck the life out of all of your self-confidence.

Ovo su događaji koji u potpunosti unište vaše samopouzdanje.

These are the events that, until recently,

Ovo su događaji koje, do nedavno, nisam čak ni nazivala napadima.

I didn't even call assault.

And this is why we have so much work to do.

Zbog ovoga imamo još puno toga da uradimo.

After my year as Miss America,

Nakon moje godine kao Mis Amerike

I continued to meet a lot of well-known people,

nastavila sam da upoznajem mnogo poznatih ljudi,

including Donald Trump.

uključujući Donalda Trampa.

When this picture was taken in 1988,

Kada je ovo fotografisamo 1988. godine,

nobody could have ever predicted where we'd be today.

niko nije mogao ni da predvidi gde ćemo danas biti.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Me, fighting to end sexual harassment in the workplace;

Ja - u borbi da okončam seksualno uznemiravanje na radnom mestu;

he, president of the United States

on - predsednik Sjedinjenih Država

in spite of it.

uprkos tome.

And shortly thereafter, I got my first gig in television news

Ubrzo potom sam dobila svoj prvi posao na TV stanici

in Richmond, Virginia.

u Ričmondu u Virdžiniji.

Check out that confident smile with the bright pink jacket.

Obratite pažnju na samouveren osmeh i svetlo rozi sako.

Zanemarite kosu.

Not so much the hair.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

I was working so hard to prove that blondes have a lot of brains.

Radila sam veoma naporno da dokažem da plavuše imaju puno mozga.

But ironically, one of the first stories I covered

Ali, ironično, jedna od prvih vesti o kojoj sam izveštavala

was the Anita Hill hearings in Washington, DC.

bilo je svedočenje Anite Hil u Vašingtonu.

And shortly thereafter,

Ubrzo nakon toga i ja sam doživela seksualno uznemiravanje na radnom mestu.

I, too, was sexually harassed in the workplace.

I was covering a story in rural Virginia,

Izveštavala sam o događaju u selu u Virdžiniji,

and when we got back into the car,

a kada smo se vratili u automobil,

my cameraman started saying to me,

moj kamerman je počeo da govori

wondering how much I had enjoyed when he touched my breasts

da se pita koliko sam uživala kada mi je dodirivao grudi

when he put the microphone on me.

dok mi je nameštao mikrofon.

And it went downhill from there.

Postalo je sve gore nakon toga.

I was bracing myself against the passenger door --

Bila sam u stanju pripravnosti naslonjena na vrata -

this was before cellphones.

nije bilo mobilnih telefona.

I was petrified.

Bila sam prestrašena.

I actually envisioned myself rolling outside of that door

Zaista sam zamišljala sebe kako se prevrćem napolje kroz vrata

as the car was going 50 miles per hour like I'd seen in the movies,

pri brzini od osamdeset kilometara, kao što sam videla u filmovima,

and wondering how much it would hurt.

i pitala sam se koliko će me to boleti.

When the story about Harvey Weinstein came to light --

Kada je priča o Harviju Vajnstinu,

one the most well-known movie moguls in all of Hollywood --

jednom od najuticajnijih osoba u celom Holivudu,

the allegations were horrific.

ugledala svetlost dana, optužbe su bile užasavajuće.

But so many women came forward,

Međutim, toliko žena je progovorilo

and it made me realize what I had done meant something.

da sam shvatila da je ono što sam uradila nešto značilo.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

He had such a lame excuse.

Imao je tako bedan izgovor.

He said he was a product of the '60s and '70s,

Rekao je da je bio proizvod '60-ih i '70-ih godina

and that that was the culture then.

i da je to bilo tad uobičajeno.

Yeah, that was the culture then,

Da, to je bilo tad uobičajeno

and unfortunately, it still is.

i, nažalost, još uvek jeste.

Why?

Zašto?

Because of all the myths

Zbog svih mitova koji su još vezani za seksualno uznemiravanje.

that are still associated with sexual harassment.

„Žene jednostavno treba da prihvate drugi posao i nađu drugu karijeru.“

"Women should just take another job and find another career."

Yeah, right.

Kako da ne.

Tell that to the single mom working two jobs,

Recite to samohranoj majci koja ima dva posla

trying to make ends meet,

da bi spojila kraj sa krajem,

who's also being sexually harassed.

a koja je takođe žrtva seksualnog uznemiravanja.

"Women --

„Žene

they bring it on themselves."

su same krive za to što im se dešava.“

By the clothes that we wear

Zbog odeće koju nosimo i šminke koju stavljamo na sebe.

and the makeup that we put on.

Yeah, I guess those hoodies that Uber engineers wear in Silicon Valley

Da, pretpostavljam da su oni duksevi sa kapuljačama

koje inženjeri Ubera nose u Silicijumskoj dolini baš provokativni.

are just so provocative.

"Women make it up."

„Žene to izmišljaju.“

Yeah, because it's so fun and rewarding

Da, zato što je baš zabavno i vredno biti degradirana i otpuštena.

to be demeaned and taken down.

I would know.

Ja to znam.

"Women bring these claims because they want to be famous and rich."

„Žene iznose ove optužbe da bi postale slavne i bogate.“

Our own president said that.

Lično je naš predsednik je to rekao.

I bet Taylor Swift,

Kladim se da Tejlor Svift,

one of the most well-known and richest singers in the world,

jednoj od najpoznatijih i najbogatijih pevačica na svetu,

didn't need more money or fame

nije trebalo više novca ili slave

when she came forward with her groping case

kada je iznela optužbu zbog neželjenog dodirivanja

for one dollar.

i tražila jedan dolar za odštetu.

And I'm so glad she did.

I toliko mi je drago da je to uradila.

Breaking news:

Najnovije vesti:

the untold story about women and sexual harassment in the workplace:

neispričana priča o ženama

i seksualnom uznemiravanju na radnom mestu -

women just want a safe, welcoming

žene samo žele bezbednu okolinu gde se osećaju dobrodošlo

and harass-free environment.

i gde neće biti žrtve uznemiravanja.

That's it.

To je sve.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

So how do we go about getting our power back?

Dakle, kako da povratimo svoju moć?

I have three solutions.

Imam tri rešenja.

Number one:

Broj jedan -

we need to turn bystanders and enablers into allies.

moramo pretvoriti posmatrače i one koji omogućuju zločin u saveznike.

Ninety-eight percent of United States corporations right now

Upravo sada 98 posto američkih kompanija ima odgovarajuće pravilnike o obuci.

have sexual harassment training policies.

Seventy percent have prevention programs.

Sedamdeset posto ima programe za sprečavanje.

But still, overwhelmingly,

Ali ipak, u većini slučajeva,

bystanders and witnesses don't come forward.

posmatrači i svedoci ne prijavljuju ono što su videli.

In 2016,

Godine 2016,

the Harvard Business Review called it the "bystander effect."

„Harvardski poslovni pregled“ je to nazvao posmatračkom posledicom.

And yet -- remember 9/11.

Ipak, setite se napada na Svetski trgovinski centar.

Millions of times we've heard,

Milion puta smo čuli:

"If you see something,

„Ako vidiš nešto, reci nešto.“

say something."

Imagine how impactful that would be if we carried that through

Zamislite kakav bi to uticaj imalo ako bismo to primenili

to bystanders in the workplace regarding sexual harassment --

na posmatrače na radnom mestu kada je u pitanju seksualno uznemiravanje,

to recognize and interrupt these incidences;

kada bismo prepoznali i prekinuli ove incidente,

to confront the perpetrators to their face;

kada bismo se direktno suprotstavili počiniocu

to help and protect the victims.

da pružimo pomoć i zaštitu žrtvama.

This is my shout-out to men:

Ovo je moj poziv muškarcima -

we need you in this fight.

potrebni ste nam u ovoj borbi.

And to women, too --

Ali, takođe, i ženama -

enablers to allies.

onim ženama koje omogućuju zločin da postanu saveznici.

Number two:

Broj dva -

change the laws.

promena zakona.

How many of you out there know

Koliko vas zna da li imate klauzulu o prinudnoj arbitraži

whether or not you have a forced arbitration clause

in your employment contract?

u svom ugovoru o radu?

Not a lot of hands.

Ne vidim puno ruku.

And if you don't know, you should,

A ako ne znate, treba da znate,

and here's why.

a evo i zašto.

TIME Magazine calls it,

Časopis „Tajm“ je naziva,

right there on the screen,

kao što vidite na ekranu,

"The teeny tiny little print in contracts

„Majušna, sitna slova u ugovorima

that keeps sexual harassment claims unheard."

koja omogućavaju da niko ne čuje za optužbe o seksualnom uznemiravanju.“

Here's what it is.

Evo šta to znači.

Forced arbitration takes away your Seventh Amendment right

Prinudna arbitraža vam uskraćuje

vaše ustavom zagarantovano pravo na javno suđenje sa porotom.

to an open jury process.

It's secret.

Tajno je.

You don't get the same witnesses or depositions.

Ne dobijate iste svedoke i svedočenja.

In many cases, the company picks the arbitrator for you.

U mnogim slučajevima vaša kompanija bira arbitra za vas.

There are no appeals,

Ne postoji pravo na žalbu

and only 20 percent of the time does the employee win.

i samo u dvadeset posto slučajeva radnica pobedi.

But again, it's secret,

Ponavljam, tajno je,

so nobody ever knows what happened to you.

tako da niko nikada ne sazna šta vam se desilo.

This is why I've been working so diligently

Zbog toga radim toliko marljivo u Beloj kući u Vašingtonu

on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC

to change the laws.

da promenimo zakone.

And here's what I tell the Senators:

Evo šta kažem senatorima:

sexual harassment is apolitical.

„Seksualno uznemiravanje nije stvar politike.“

Before somebody harasses you,

Pre nego što postanete nečija žrtva

they don't ask you if you're a Republican or Democrat first.

ne pitaju vas prvo da li ste republikanac ili demokrata.

They just do it.

Samo to urade.

And this is why we should all care.

I zato svima treba da bude stalo.

Number three:

Broj tri -

be fierce.

budite odlučni.

It starts when we stand tall,

To počinje kada smo ponosni, kada razvijamo samopouzdanje,

and we build that self-confidence.

And we stand up and we speak up,

suprotstavljamo se, obelodanimo priču i kažemo svetu šta nam se dogodilo.

and we tell the world what happened to us.

I know it's scary,

Znam da je zastrašujuće, ali hajde da to uradimo zbog naše dece.

but let's do it for our kids.

Hajde da okončamo ovo za dobrobit sledećih generacija.

Let's stop this for the next generations.

I know that I did it for my children.

Znam da sam ja to uradila zbog svoje dece.

They were paramount in my decision-making

Ona su bila ključna pri donošenju odluke da li da prijavim svoj slučaj ili ne.

about whether or not I would come forward.

My beautiful children,

Moja lepa deca -

my 12-year-old son, Christian,

moj dvanaestogodišnji sin Kristijan

my 14-year-old daughter, Kaia.

i moja četrnaestogodišnja ćerka Kaja.

And boy, did I underestimate them.

Čoveče, kako sam ih samo potcenila.

The first day of school last year

Prvi dan škole prošle godine

happened to be the day my resolution was announced,

je bio dan kada je moja rezolucija najavljena

i bila sam veoma zabrinuta šta će im se dogoditi.

and I was so anxious about what they would face.

Moja ćerka je došla kući iz škole i rekla:

My daughter came home from school and she said,

„Mama, puno ljudi me je pitalo šta ti se letos dogodilo.“

"Mommy, so many people asked me what happened to you over the summer."

Tada me je pogledala i oči i rekla:

Then she looked at me in the eyes

and she said, "And mommy,

„Mama,

I was so proud

bila sam veoma ponosna

to say that you were my mom."

da kažem da si ti moja mama.“

And two weeks later,

Dve nedelje kasnije,

when she finally found the courage to stand up to two kids

kada je konačno smogla snagu da ustane protiv dvoje dece

who had been making her life miserable,

koji su joj zagorčavali život,

she came home to me and she said,

došla je kući i rekla:

"Mommy, I found the courage to do it

„Mama, smogla sam snagu da to uradim

because I saw you do it."

jer sam videla da si ti to uradila.“

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

You see, giving the gift of courage is contagious.

Vidite, davanje dara hrabrosti je zarazno.

And I hope that my journey has inspired you,

Nadam se da vas je moja priča inspirisala

because right now, it's the tipping point.

jer upravo sada je prelomni momenat.

We are watching history happen.

Svedoci smo stvaranja istorije.

More and more women are coming forward and saying,

Sve više i više žena prekida ćutnju i govori:

"Enough is enough."

„Dosta je više.“

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

Here's my one last plea to companies.

Ovo je moja poslednja molba upućena kompanijama.

Let's hire back all those women whose careers were lost

Hajde da ponovo zaposlimo sve one žene čije su karijere izgubljene

because of some random jerk.

zbog neke nasumične budale.

Because here's what I know about women:

Evo šta ja znam o ženama -

we will not longer be underestimated, intimidated or set back;

nećemo više biti potcenjene, zastrašivane ili osujećene;

we will not be silenced by the ways of the establishment

nećemo biti naterane na ćutnju zbog uobičajenih načina ponašanja

or the relics of the past.

ili zaostavština iz prošlosti.

No.

Ne.

We will stand up and speak up

Suprotstavićemo se, obelodanićemo naše priče

and have our voices heard.

i nateraćemo ih da nas čuju.

We will be the women we were meant to be.

Bićemo žene kakve treba da budemo.

And above all,

I iznad svega,

we will always be fierce.

uvek ćemo biti odlučne.

Thank you.

Hvala.

(Applause)

(Aplauz)
