Ihlabathi lilizwe lam: Ifilimu eNtsha ebalulekileyo malunga noMlo kaGarry Davis woBumi beLizwe

nguMarc Eliot Stein, ngoFebhuwari 8, 2018

UGarry Davis wayengumdlali weqonga oselula ka-Broadway ngo-1941, owayenomdla ongazenzisiyo kuDanny Kaye kumculo kaCole Porter obizwa ngokuba “Masijongane Nawo” malunga nabezomkhosi base-US, xa iMelika yangena kwiMfazwe yesibini yeHlabathi kwaye wazifumana sele esiya eYurophu enxibe iyunifomu yamajoni. . Le mfazwe yayiza kutshintsha ubomi bakhe. Umkhuluwa kaDavis, naye ngoku owayesilwa eYurophu, wabulawa kuhlaselo lwaselwandle. UGarry Davis wayebhabha eBhrandenberg, eJamani, kodwa wayengenakukuqonda ukuba wayencedisa ekubulaleni abanye abantu kanye njengokuba umntakwabo othandekayo wayesandula ukubulawa. "Ndaziva ndihlazekile ngokuba ndiyinxalenye yayo," watsho kamva.

Kwakukho into eyahlukileyo ngalo mfana unomphefumlo, obali lakhe lobomi libaliswa kumdlalo bhanyabhanya okhuphisanayo, okhuthazayo ngokunzulu obizwa ngokuba "liLizwe Lizwe Lami", ekhokelwa ngu-Arthur Kanegis kwaye ngoku esenza ujikelezo lweesekethe zomnyhadala wefilimu ngethemba lokuba Ukukhululwa ngokubanzi. Iimpawu ezibonisa ukuvuleka kwefilimu zibonisa utshintsho olwenziwe ngoku ebomini bukaGarry Davis, njengoko eqhubeka nokubonakala kwimiboniso ebanzi ye-Broadway kunye nabadlali abanjengoRay Bolger noJack Haley (uDavis ngokwasemzimbeni befana bobabini, kwaye kusenokwenzeka ukuba wenza ikhosi efana neyabo) kodwa Unqwenela ukuphendula umnxeba omkhulu. Ngequbuliso, ngokungathi unomdla, uthathe isigqibo kwi-1948 yokuzibhengeza njengommi wehlabathi, kunye nokwala ukuthobela umbono wokuba yena okanye omnye umntu kufuneka agcine ubumi belizwe ngexesha kwihlabathi apho ubuzwe budibene ngokungenakwahlukaniswa kubundlobongela, urhano, intiyo kunye nemfazwe.

Ngaphandle kokucinga kwangaphambili okanye ukulungiselela, lo mfana ushiye ubumi bakhe baseMelika kwaye ajike ipasipoti yakhe eParis, oko kuthetha ukuba akasamkelekanga ngokusemthethweni eFrance okanye naphina kwenye iplanethi yoMhlaba. Emva koko ubeka indawo yokuhlala kwindawo encinci yomhlaba ngasemlanjeni iSeine apho iZizwe eziManyeneyo zihlangana khona, nalapho iFrance ibhengeze ukuba ivulelekile okwethutyana kwihlabathi. UDavis ubiza ubumbano kwiZizwe eziManyeneyo, kwaye ubhengeza ukuba njengommi wehlabathi eli ndawo kufuneka ibe likhaya lakhe. Oku kudala isiganeko samazwe aphesheya kwaye ngequbuliso lo mfana ubanjelwe uhlobo olungaqhelekanga lodumo lwehlabathi. Ukuhlala esitratweni okanye ezintenteni, okokuqala kwinkomfa yeZizwe eziManyeneyo eParis emva koko ngasemlanjeni owahlula iFrance neJamani, uyaphumelela ekuthatheni ingqalelo kwinjongo yakhe nasekuqokeleleni inkxaso kubantu abaphezulu abanjengoJean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Andre Breton kunye Andre Andre. Ekuphakameni kweli xesha lobomi bakhe, wavuya sisihlwele sabantu abatsha abangama-20,000 XNUMX kwaye wakhankanya umsebenzi wakhe ngu-Albert Einstein no-Eleanor Roosevelt.

"Ihlabathi lilizwe lam" ibalisa ngohambo lobomi lukaGarry Davis, owasweleka ngo-2013 eneminyaka engama-91. Akumangalisi ke ngoko ukuba yayiluhambo olunzima. Ngawona maxesha akhe obabalo esidlangalaleni, esi sithandi sobulumko siqeqeshwe ngokufuthi sasidla ngokuziva sigxeka ngokunzulu kuye, kwaye sichaza ukuphelelwa lithemba okwamoyikisayo kanye ngalaa mzuzu xa “abalandeli” bakhe (wayengazimiselanga kuba naye, kwaye engazicingeli yena inkokeli) yamlindela ukuba azi ukuba makenze ntoni elandelayo. "Ndiqale ukuphulukana nam," utshilo kwingxelo echukumisayo yamashumi eminyaka kamva, enika uninzi lobume bebali njengoko le movie ingaqhelekanga iqhubeka. Wagqiba ukusebenza kumzi-mveliso waseNew Jersey okwexeshana, emva koko wazama (ngaphandle kwempumelelo enkulu) ukubuyela kwinqanaba le-Broadway, kwaye ekugqibeleni waseka umbutho ozinikele kubummi behlabathi, Urhulumente wehlabathi weSizwe, eqhubeka nokukhupha iipasspoti kunye nokukhuthaza uxolo emhlabeni jikelele namhlanje.

"Ihlabathi Lizwe Lami" ngumboniso bhanyabhanya obalulekileyo namhlanje. Isikhumbuza ngeembono ezibalulekileyo, ezinethemba elithe lagubungela umhlaba iminyaka embalwa emva kokuba inhlekelele yeMfazwe yesibini yeHlabathi yaphela ngo-1945 nangaphambi kokuba iqale iMfazwe yaseKorea ngo-1950. UGarry Davis uwuthathile lo mzuzu, eqhubela phambili kwaye ecaphukisa i-UN ngokunyanzelisa ukuba iphile ngokuvisisana namandla amagama ayo aphakamileyo malunga nokwenza uxolo kwihlabathi liphela, kwaye ekugqibeleni isebenzise isibhengezo sayo samalungelo oluntu njengesiseko sombutho ohleliyo.

Ukubukela lo mboniso bhanyabhanya unamandla namhlanje, kwihlabathi eliqhubeka nokungabikho kokusesikweni, intlupheko ngokungenasidingo kunye nemfazwe ekhohlakeleyo, ndaye ndazifumana ndicinga ukuba ingaba akukho gunya kwaphela elishiyekileyo kwi-Universal Declaration of Human Rights, neyakhe yathetha lukhulu kuGarry. UDavis kunye namaqabane akhe amaninzi. Uluvo lokuba ngummi wehlabathi ngokucacileyo lunamandla, kodwa luhlala lunempikiswano kwaye ubukhulu becala alwaziwa. Amanani abalulekileyo oluntu kunye nabantu abadumileyo babonakala bexhasa ifa likaGarry Davis kunye nombono wokuba ngummi wehlabathi "Ihlabathi Lilizwe Lami", kubandakanya uMartin Sheen kunye nommeleli uYasiin Bey (aka Mos Def). Umboniso bhanyabhanya ubonisa indlela abantu abaqala ngokulula ngayo ukuwuqonda umbono wokuba ngummi wehlabathi xa sele bechazelwe- kwaye umbono uhlala ulusizi kubomi bethu bemihla ngemihla, kwaye kucingelwa ukuba kunqabile ukuba kunjalo.

Ndafikelwa yenye yeengcinga engakhankanywanga nakwifilimu, nangona ifilimu iphakamisa umbuzo wento uluntu lwehlabathi oluya kuyisebenzisa kwimali yemali. Namhlanje, iingcali zezoqoqosho kunye nabanye basokolisana nokuvela kwemali ye-blockchain efana neBitcoin ne-Ethereum, esebenzisa amandla wetekhnoloji ye-Intanethi ukubonelela ngeendlela ezikhuselekileyo zemali esebenzayo engaxhaswanga lulo naliphi na ilizwe okanye urhulumente. Iimali zeBlockchain zineengcali zezezimali kwihlabathi liphela ezididekileyo, kwaye uninzi lwethu luyonwabile kwaye luxhalabile ngamathuba enkqubo yezoqoqosho engaxhomekeki kubume besizwe. Ngaba oku kuya kusetyenziselwa ukulunga nokubi? Isakhono sikhona sobabini… kwaye inyani yokuba iibhloko ze-blockchain ngequbuliso ngoku zikho njengenkqubo yezoqoqosho lwangaphandle ekhomba kwenye yeendlela ezininzi "Ihlabathi lilizwe lam" liphethe umyalezo oziva ulungile kwi2018.

Umyalezo ngulo: singabemi behlabathi, nokuba siyakuqonda oko okanye akunjalo, kwaye kuxhomekeke kuthi ukunceda uluntu lwethu oluxubileyo kunye neparanoid ukuba likhethe ikamva loluntu kunye nokuchuma kwikamva lenzondo nobundlobongela. Apha kulapho siziva ukungeniswa kwesibindi esikho esashukumisela umfana ogama linguGarry Davis ukuba athathe umngcipheko wobuntu ngokunikezela ngobumi bakhe belizwe eParis ngo-1948, ngaphandle kwembono ecacileyo yokuba uza kwenza ntoni ngokulandelayo. Ekubonakaleni okumangalisayo kukaDavis kamva ebomini bakhe, xa ethetha ngeentolongo ezingama-34 uye wasinda kwaye wabhiyozela usapho awalukhulisa kunye nowasetyhini awadibana naye kumda ophakathi kweJamani neFrance, kunye nayo yonke imisebenzi emikhulu awayenzayo ukusukela ngoko. , Siyabona ukuba le nkalipho yajika njani yindoda engenangoma nengoma yomdaniso kunye ne-ex-GI yaba ligorha nomzekelo kwabanye.

Kodwa ezinye iziganeko eziphelisa le movie ebunamandla, ibonisa ababaleki emhlabeni jikelele abanqwenela nantoni na efana nentuthuko kunye nobulungisa obunokubakho ubummi bomhlaba jikelele, sibonise indlela umzabalazo wokwenene uhlala ngayo. NjengoGarry Davis kwi-1948, kwaye ngakumbi nakakhulu, aba bantu abanalo ilizwe kwiimeko ezinzima nangona zinzima. Lawa ngabantu abangabantu abaza kuba nombono wokuba ngabemi bomhlaba wonke umahluko phakathi kokufa nokufa. Ngabo uGarry Davis wayephila ubomi bakhe obunomzekelo, kwaye kukuba kubo kufuneka siqhubeke sithatha ingcamango yakhe kwaye siqhubeke silwa.
