Molly: What a load of nonsense! These are the views of western-centrism, saying that the only future for Africa is to adopt western ways.
莫莉：真是一派胡言！說(shuō)非洲唯一的出路在于追隨西方，完全就是西方中心主義。
Leon: Of course that's too extreme. No culture is superior to any other. However, I also don't think the colonial past could or should be erased from the history of the Africa.
萊昂：這種說(shuō)法當(dāng)然是太極端了。沒(méi)有哪種文化是優(yōu)于其他文化的，但是我覺(jué)得殖民歷史不能也不應(yīng)該從非洲大陸的歷史中被抹去。
Molly: That's true. Colonialism has left its permanent mark on African culture. Despite the woes it has brought to the African people, that part of history should be remembered and reflected upon.
莫莉：沒(méi)錯(cuò)。殖民主義永久地在非洲文化上打上了其烙印。雖然這段歷史給非洲人民帶來(lái)了痛苦，它仍然應(yīng)該被牢記、反思。
Leon: You know, besides safari, visiting ancient civilizations, there is now another kind of tour to Africa, the slave trade tour. People, especially those who have their ancestry from Africa would visit places like former slave ports, dungeons and colonial museums in Ghana and Senegal.
萊昂：你知道的，現(xiàn)在去非洲除了觀獸旅行，參觀古代文明，還有一種旅游就是追溯奴隸貿(mào)易。尤其是那些非洲的后裔會(huì)去加納和塞內(nèi)加爾，參觀原來(lái)的奴隸貿(mào)易港口，牢房和殖民博物館。
Molly: Beginning in the 15th century and ending in the 19th century, the slave trade transported 6 million Africans. A tour to the slave sites might well remind people of that infamous trade.
莫莉：奴隸貿(mào)易開始于15世紀(jì)結(jié)束于19世紀(jì)，輸送了6百萬(wàn)非洲人口。去奴隸貿(mào)易地點(diǎn)游覽能讓人們謹(jǐn)記這種臭名昭著的貿(mào)易。
Leon: I think history will not be buried and forgotten by either Africans or their descendents in America.
萊昂：我認(rèn)為不管是非洲人還是他們?cè)诿乐薜暮笠幔疾粫?huì)掩埋或遺忘這段歷史。
