For instance, I'm a theater maker who loves sports.
比如說，我是一個(gè)熱愛運(yùn)動(dòng)的戲劇家。
When I was making my latest piece /peh-LO-tah/ I thought a lot about how soccer was a means for my own immigrant family
當(dāng)我在創(chuàng)作最新的劇作peh-LO-tah時(shí)，我想了很多關(guān)于我自己的移民家庭，
to foster a sense of continuity and normality and community within the new context of the US.
如何在美國的新環(huán)境中，用足球來建立一種連續(xù)性，體會(huì)平常和集體感。
In this heightened moment of xenophobia and assault on immigrant identity,
在這個(gè)高度排外、移民身份受到攻擊的時(shí)刻，
I wanted to think through how the game could serve as an affirmational tool for first-generation Americans and immigrant kids,
我想好好思考一個(gè)足球比賽如何可以成為第一代美國人和移民兒童肯定自我的工具，
to ask them to consider movement patterns on the field as kin to migratory patterns across social and political borders.
能夠讓他們把球場(chǎng)上的移動(dòng)看作跨越社會(huì)和政治邊界的遷移。
Whether footballers or not, immigrants in the US play on endangered ground.
不管是不是熱愛足球，美國境內(nèi)的移民都在危險(xiǎn)的地方生活與玩耍。
I wanted to help the kids understand that the same muscle that they use to plan the next goal
我想幫孩子們認(rèn)識(shí)到他們用來計(jì)劃下個(gè)進(jìn)球的肌肉，
can also be used to navigate the next block.
同樣可以用來指引下個(gè)街區(qū)的方向。
For me, freedom exists in the body.
在我看來，自由是與生俱來的。
We talk about it abstractly and even divisively,
我們對(duì)自由的討論經(jīng)常是抽象的、有分歧的，
like "protect our freedom," "build this wall," "they hate us because of our freedom."
比如“保衛(wèi)我們的自由”，“建這個(gè)墻”，“他們討厭我們是因?yàn)槲覀兊淖杂伞！?/div>
We have all these systems that are beautifully designed to incarcerate us or deport us, but how do we design freedom?
有這么多精心設(shè)計(jì)的系統(tǒng)來監(jiān)禁我們或驅(qū)逐我們，但我們要如何設(shè)計(jì)自由呢？
For these kids, I wanted to track the idea back to something that exists inside that no one could take away,
對(duì)于這些孩子，我想追尋一個(gè)存在于內(nèi)心、無人能奪走的東西，
so I developed this curriculum that's part poli-sci class, part soccer tournament, inside of an arts festival.
所以在一個(gè)藝術(shù)節(jié)上，我開設(shè)了一個(gè)課程，一部分是政治學(xué)課程，一部分是足球比賽。
It accesses /peh-LO-tah/'s field of inquiry to create a sports-based political action for young people.
它用了peh-LO-tah的核心主題，來創(chuàng)建一個(gè)基于體育的針對(duì)年輕人的政治活動(dòng)。
The project is called "Moving and Passing."
這個(gè)項(xiàng)目叫“Moving and Passing”。
It intersects curriculum development, site-specific performance and the politics of joy,
它融合了課程研發(fā)，基于不同場(chǎng)地的表演和關(guān)于喜悅的政治，
while using soccer as a metaphor for the urgent question of enfranchisement among immigrant youth.
同時(shí)用足球作為一個(gè)比喻來回應(yīng)現(xiàn)在很危急的、如何讓移民青年享有公民權(quán)的問題。
