1
Everybody should watch this video.
2
This one is really powerful.
3
Check this out.
4
Let me know what you think about this.
5
Do I sound like a white racist to say, see what I mean?
6
You can pull yourselves up by your bootstraps.
7
Does that make you nervous if I say something like that?
8
No, but the context would make me nervous if you were suggesting, and you're not, that all blacks had to do was to go to work.
9
And if they worked as hard as whites, we could make it.
10
But that's not the context in which you're saying it the context in
11
which you're saying it is that we are looking at a group of people, 30 million people, who this year will earn 300 billion dollars equal to the 14th richest nation in the world.
12
We're 12% of the population, we buy 18% of the orange juice, 20% of the rice, 26% of Cadillac cars, etc, etc, etc. We have 350 black organizations,
13
middle class blacks, 1 million of which go to white hotels each summer.
14
They spend 16 billion dollars discussing white racism and black poverty.
15
Now, there is no way in the world
16
that white people can free black people because freedom is not white people's to give.
17
Two, white people, as I said in the piece, cannot do for us what we refuse to do for ourselves.
18
Three, the key to this equation is the behavior of the black middle class.
19
The key to this is not understanding whether or not whites like blacks or blacks like whites.
20
I frankly have no interest in that at all.
21
I have no interest in managed society.
22
I'm not interested in having to sit next to people because they're white.
23
I'm interested in being equal.
24
And the only way you're equal is to have power alan keys said the most cogent thing said here tonight
25
and that is we are talking about power not whether
26
or not white people have been fair not whether they're nice people not whether
27
or not black people are good or bad but whether
28
or not you as a community of people have the instruments of defense
29
and in some cases of aggression to protect your turf
30
and or your interests you can't have 30 million people handing over to another people 100 of their resources
31
and blaming them for 100 of their problems that is not intelligent
32
so what we need to do in the black community is a decide to be competitive
33
and the only way we're going to be competitive is to
34
use our resources the final thing i'd like to say is
35
this the primary resource we have as a people is not our money it's what we know
36
and what you know is called human capital
37
and the fleet of human capital from the black community has
38
been enormous in the name of integration we've lost our brains to the to the white community
39
and nobody is there for the intergenerational transfer of information from middle class people to poor people
40
so we now have what we call so-called underclass people
41
but like power structure and the white community in america are out of options.
42
They can no longer afford racism and they can no longer afford school systems that don't work for this following reason.
43
In eight years, over 50% of the population, workforce, will be female and non-white.

如何练好发音？试试影子跟读
视频中的演讲者语速中等，语气坚定，非常适合练习shadowspeak（影子跟读）。想要get他的发音技巧，不妨试试以下方法：
- 注意重音：演讲者在强调观点时会加重关键词，比如“power”“competitive”，跟读时要模仿这种重音变化，让表达更有感染力。
- 抓住节奏：他的句子结构紧凑，逗号后的停顿较短，练习时可以用影子跟读的方式，紧跟他的节奏，提升口语流畅度。
- 模仿语气：演讲者的语气充满自信，在表达“自由不是别人给的”这类观点时，语气会更强烈。试着模仿这种语气，让你的口语更生动。
现在就打开视频，跟着读起来吧！找一个合适的shadowing site，每天练习10分钟，坚持下去，你的发音和口语流畅度一定会有进步。记住，看视频学英语的关键是多听、多说、多模仿，勇敢开口，你一定能做到！
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
