Enes Kanter: Move the Olympics for Peng Shuai’s Sake
The IOC shockingly echoes Beijing’s rhetoric on the tennis star’s
disappearance.

這篇是Enes Kanter今天投書到華爾街日報的內容。
如果分類不對請推文告知一下，謝謝。

標題：為了彭帥更動奧運地點吧
副標：國際奧委會令人錯愕的接受北京對這名網球明星消失的描繪

Tennis champion Peng Shuai took to social media earlier this month to accuse
a former top-ranking official in the Chinese Communist Party of sexually
assaulting her. Within 30 minutes the post was scrubbed from the internet in
China. She disappeared and no one has heard directly from her since.

網球明星彭帥本月早些時候，在社群平台上抨擊前任中國共產黨高官性侵她。
貼文在三十分鐘內被從中國的網路上消除。
她失蹤，且至今無人能夠直接連絡到她。

For decades, Western athletes, celebrities and corporations have diligently
kept silent in the face of Chinese human-rights violations. International
hotel chains, airlines, apparel brands, sports leagues and Hollywood studios
have steered away from “sensitive topics” such as Tibet’s independence,
the Uyghur genocide, Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement and Taiwan’s
sovereignty.



The sports community must wake up—and speak up. We need to realize that the
authoritarian Chinese government isn’t our friend. The Communist Party is a
brutal dictatorship that has weaponized economic power to achieve ideological
and political compliance.

體育社群必須覺醒，並且發聲。
我們應該意識到中國的專制政府不是我們的朋友。
共產黨是一個殘酷的獨裁者，正以經濟力量為工具去達成意識形態和政治的目的。

Athletes can play a profound role in helping turn the tide toward a more safe
and free world. History has shown what is possible. Bill Russell stood up
against racial injustice. Muhammad Ali protested the Vietnam War. Arthur Ashe
spoke out against apartheid in South Africa.

運動員可以發揮重要角色，協助力挽狂瀾以成就更安全和自由的世界。
歷史顯示這是可以做到的。
Bill Russell為了種族不義而起身；Muhammad Ali抗議越戰；
Arthur Ashe批評南非的種族隔離。

Western athletes can and should use our global platforms to lend a voice to
those being silenced. #WhereIsPengShuai has been trending on Twitter. Let’s
keep that up, and keep demanding answers until we know for sure she is safe.
We must also stop giving priority to money over morals. Claiming we are
“misinformed” or “not really educated” should no longer be an
excuse. Take initiative. Reach out to activists and communities. Try to
learn about the Chinese government’s abuses. We can all be better allies,
and stand in solidarity.

西方運動員可以且應該使用我們的全球平台，去聲援被壓迫的人。
「彭帥在哪裡」已經成為推特上的熱門趨勢。
我們要維持這個狀態，並持續要求回應直到確定她是安全的。
我們必須不再出賣我們的道德價值。


And we must take a firm stance against the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
While the Women’s Tennis Association has voiced concern for Ms. Peng, the
International Olympic Committee has shockingly echoed Chinese state media’s
rhetoric about her case. This comes as no surprise, as the IOC has ignored
Beijing’s abuses for years. As athletes concerned about human rights and
justice, we must pressure the IOC to move the games. All the gold medals in
the world aren’t worth selling your values and your principles to the
Chinese Communist Party.

我們必須堅定對於2022年北京冬季奧運的立場。
雖然女子網球協會已經表示擔心彭女士的狀況，國際奧運委員會令人錯愕的接受了中國
官方媒體對她的描述。
這並不讓人驚訝，因為國際奧委會歷年來都對北京的行為視而不見。
隨著運動員更關心人權和正義，我們應該施壓國際奧委會去更動賽程。
全世界的金牌都不值得出賣價值和原則給中國共產黨。

I have learned firsthand how precious freedom is. It must be defended at all
costs. Together, we can help move the needle in the right direction.
Wake up and speak up. Change is coming, and no one can stop it. They can’t
silence us all.

我親身學到了自由的可貴，它必須被不計代價的保護。
我們可以一起改善狀況。覺醒並發聲吧，改變要來了且不可阻擋。
他們不能讓我們全都閉口不言。
