卡马乌·贝尔谈到比尔·考斯比复杂的人生

Kamau Bell Addresses Bill Cosby’s Complex Legacy1

In 2018 actor and comedian2 Bill Cosby was convicted on three counts of aggravated3 indecent assault and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.He was released last summer after Pennsylvanias supreme4 court overturned his conviction on a procedural issue.Cosby has denied the allegations by dozens of women who say he drugged and raped5 them.

2018年,演员兼喜剧演员比尔·科斯比被判三项严重猥亵罪,并被判处10年监禁。去年夏天,在宾夕法尼亚州最高法院推翻了他在程序问题上的定罪后,他被释放。科斯比否认了数十名女性的指控,她们说他给她们下药并强奸了她们。

This was complicated, how do we talk about Bill Cosby, its complex come out you know.Comedian Kamau Bell says it was a difficult decision to make the docu-series we need to talk about Cosby.Like a lot of people as I say in the series like I had a hard time reckoning with all this stuff.Bell describes himself as a Cosby child one of many who grew up watching the entertainers programs, as a comedian, he says he was inspired by Cosby,but after the revelations he says he had a hard time admitting it.And Id be like I cant6 say Bill Cosby but then I was like but if I dont say Bill Cosby as a black man of my age,Ill look insane like how did not reckon with Bill Cosby, and so I started to say the artist formerly7 known as Bill Cosby,as a way to indicate that I knew there was a lot going on there and that generally satisfied people,but that sort of was the beginning of me trying to reckon with it publicly.Bells Tokyo series follows Cosbys meteoric8 rise from a stand-up comic in 1960 San Francisco to the beloved father figure in the internationally famous the Cosby show.

这很复杂,我们怎么谈论比尔·考斯比,这很复杂。喜剧演员卡莫·贝尔表示,制作我们需要谈论科斯比的纪录片系列是一个艰难的决定。就像纪录片中说的很多人一样,我很难考虑到所有这些东西。贝尔称自己是科斯比的孩子,和其他许多人一样,他是看着这位娱乐明星的节目长大的。作为一名喜剧演员,他说他受到了科斯比的启发但在这些爆料之后,他说他很难承认这一点。我不能说比尔·科斯比,但是如果我不说比尔·科斯比是我这个年龄的黑人的话我会看起来很疯狂,就像我没有和比尔·考斯比打交道一样,所以我开始说,这位以前被称为比尔·考斯比的艺术家,作为一种表明我知道那里有很多事情发生,人们普遍满意的一种方式,但这在某种程度上是我试图公开对待这件事的开始。贝尔的东京系列讲述了科斯比从1960年旧金山的单口喜剧演员迅速崛起为国际知名的科斯比秀中受人爱戴的父亲形象的故事。

It was the number one show in South Africa or a hit show in South Africa because the government of South Africa saw it as safe.Because its sort of like this anodyne9 family sitcom10 but the the white mostly white government South Africa,but the black people of South Africa saw it as revolutionary because he was putting up Nelson Mandela images,the kids, the grandkids were named Winnie and Nelson and there was apartheid stuff,and also it showed black people living in the full thrust of their blackness proudly.All the while Cosbys accusers who agreed to be interviewed for the series described how he drugged and raped them.Spanish fly the girl would drink it and hello America.Actress Eden Turl is one of them.

这是南非排名第一的节目,或者说是南非的热门节目,因为南非政府认为它是安全的。因为这有点像一个平淡的家庭情景喜剧,但是南非政府大部分是白人但南非黑人认为这是革命性的,因为他张贴了纳尔逊·曼德拉的照片,孩子们,孙子们被取名为温尼和纳尔逊,那里有种族隔离的东西,它也展示了黑人骄傲地生活在他们的黑人生活中。在此期间,同意接受该系列采访的科斯比的原告描述了他是如何给她们下药和强奸的。那个女孩喝了,就会说“你好,美国”。女演员伊登·图尔就是其中之一。

A lot of people knew because you cant do what he did unless you have other people supporting what youre doing.And the people who are higher up are prioritizing a hit project over a safe and supportive and effective work environment.According to rollingstone. com after Bells Tokyo series was released, Cosbys rep Andrew Wyatt called Bell a pr hack12 and said Cosby had been the target of numerous media that have for too many years distorted and omitted truths intentionally13.Bell says he stands by the women who have come forward to tell their stories.Nobody could deal with the gap between who they thought Bill Cosby was and who he was revealing himself to be.

很多人都知道,因为你不能做他做的事情,除非你有其他人支持你正在做的事情。更高级别的人会优先考虑一个热门项目,而不是安全、支持和有效的工作环境。据Rolingstone.com报道,贝尔的东京系列剧发布后,科斯比的代表安德鲁·怀亚特称贝尔是公关黑客,并表示科斯比多年来一直是许多媒体故意歪曲和遗漏真相的目标。贝尔说,他支持那些挺身而出讲述她们故事的女性。没有人能够处理好他们所认为的比尔·考斯比和他所展现的自己之间的差距。

Wed11 never dealt with a gap that large before because whatever you think about most of the men if not all the men who fell during the Metoo amendment14 movement.

我们以前从未处理过这么大的差距,因为不管你怎么看,在Metoo修正案运动中倒下的大多数男人

Nobody none of them were international cultural icons15, heroes and also specifically none of them were anybodys childhood heroes the way Bill Cosby was.

他们中没有人是国际文化偶像、英雄,也没有人像比尔·考斯比那样成为任何人童年时代的英雄。

Bell says the docudrama does not offer easy answers but it provides enough material to allow viewers to process how to deal with someone who meant so much to them.

贝尔说,这部文献并没有提供简单的答案,但它提供了足够的材料,让观众能够处理如何与对他们意义重大的人打交道。
