Abstract

Editor's Note: One cannot publish this speech without acknowledging that the speaker, who condemned the British Crown for reducing Britain's white colonists to metaphorical slavery, held human beings of color in literal slavery. They had even more reason to make such a speech against him than he did against the Crown. That said, the speech itself summons its audience not to flinch or hesitate in the face of tyranny but to resist with courage. It is a much-needed warning for our own time.-Darius Sivin.

帕特里克·亨利在弗吉尼亚议会上的演讲（1775年3月23日）。

编者注：在发表这篇演讲时，我们不能不承认，这位谴责英国王室把英国白人殖民者贬为象征性的奴隶的演讲者，把有色人种贬为真正的奴隶。他们更有理由发表反对他的言论，而不是他反对国王。话虽如此，演讲本身呼吁听众在面对暴政时不要退缩或犹豫，而是要勇敢地反抗。这是我们这个时代急需的警告。大流士Sivin。

期刊介绍： New Solutions delivers authoritative responses to perplexing problems, with a worker’s voice, an activist’s commitment, a scientist’s approach, and a policy-maker’s experience. New Solutions explores the growing, changing common ground at the intersection of health, work, and the environment. The Journal makes plain how the issues in each area are interrelated and sets forth progressive, thoughtfully crafted public policy choices. It seeks a conversation on the issues between the grassroots labor and environmental activists and the professionals and researchers involved in charting society’s way forward with the understanding that lack of scientific knowledge is no excuse for doing nothing and that inaction is itself a choice.
