我們的司法系統(tǒng)不僅是改變了，而是圍繞著種族問題扭曲了，也圍繞著貧困扭曲了。
We have a system of justice in this country that treats you much better if you're rich and guilty than if you're poor and innocent.
如果你是有罪的富人而不是無辜的窮人的話，這個國家的司法系統(tǒng)會對你特殊照顧。
Wealth, not culpability, shapes outcomes. And yet, we seem to be very comfortable.
財富，而不是過失本身決定了最終結(jié)果。可是，我們還挺自在的呢。
The politics of fear and anger have made us believe that these are problems that are not our problems. We've been disconnected.
玩弄恐懼和憤怒的政治手腕，說服了我們事不關(guān)己，高高掛起。
It's interesting to me. We're looking at some very interesting developments in our work.
我對這個很感興趣。我們?nèi)粘９ぷ髂芸匆恍┖苡幸馑嫉淖兏铩?/div>
My state of Alabama, like a number of states, actually permanently disenfranchises you if you have a criminal conviction.
我所在的阿拉巴馬州，像很多其他州一樣，如果你被判有罪，就終身剝奪你的政治權(quán)力。
Right now in Alabama 34 percent of the black male population has permanently lost the right to vote.
現(xiàn)在在阿拉巴馬州，百分之三十四的黑人男性永遠(yuǎn)失去了投票權(quán)。

我們向前看十年，這個剝奪政治權(quán)利的比例將和投票權(quán)法案通過之前一樣的高。

I represent people on death row. It's interesting, this question of the death penalty.
我也代理死刑犯的官司。死刑這件事很發(fā)人深省。
In many ways, we've been taught to think that the real question is, do people deserve to die for the crimes they've committed?
我們從各種渠道了解到 （死刑的）根本問題是，人該不該為他們犯的罪行償命？
And that's a very sensible question. But there's another way of thinking about where we are in our identity.
這是個非常合理的問題。但是另一方面問題是我們的自我定位。
The other way of thinking about it is not, do people deserve to die for the crimes they commit, but do we deserve to kill? I mean, it's fascinating.
另一個想問題的方式，不是人們該不該為罪行償命，而是我們配不配殺他們。我是說，這個問題非常震撼。
