    This is my first time using the web interface of this app writing something. I like how I can import my old audio files into the article that I'm writing, but I still enjoy the convenience of writing from the app.
    这是我第一次使用网络界面来写东西。我喜欢网络界面能够允许你导入电脑里的旧音频,但还是很喜欢app的便捷性的。

    The audio above is an old news piece I did when I was a sophomore in college. I was in a journalism class that fulfills my radio minor, and this is one of the first assignments I did. As some of you might have known, Boston's winter is pretty brutal. I was wondering how they can survive in such weather, and maybe understand the existence of homeless population specifically in Boston. So I decided to interview some of the homeless people in downtown.
    上面的那个音频是我大二的时候做的一篇新闻报道。我有广播的辅修专业,而这门新闻学的课是要求之一,这个音频是我最开始做的作业之一。你们有些人可能知道,波士顿的冬天非常残酷。我很想知道他们怎么在这种恶劣条件下存活,或许也了解一下波士顿无家可归人口的存在原因。所以我决定去采访一些市中心的无家可归人士。

    I was pretty nervous about it at first, because my bias towards homeless people was never positive. When I think about homeless people, I tend to think about crime, drug dealing, sexual harassment and so on.
    我一开始还是很紧张的,因为我对无家可归的人偏见让我从没有对他们有过积极的看法。当我想到无家可归的人,我会趋向于想到犯罪,毒品交易,性骚扰等等。

    The experience was not bad. I met a guy who loves poetry, and an old man who traveled all the way from Long Island to Boston, and then... but then...
    其实经历没有想象的那么糟糕。我遇见了一个爱写诗的男人,还遇到了个从纽约长岛一路来到波士顿的老人,可是之后……

    I encounter a 19-year-old boy who was sitting by himself near the Macy's in downtown. The whole story did not end up in my news piece, because the audio was full of me weeping in the background. His brother passed away. Though he never had a good relationship with him, he still felt sorrow significantly. I did not ask him why he left home.
    我遇见了一个十九岁的男生,独自坐在市中心的梅西百货附近。他的全部故事最后也没有进入到我的新闻采访,因为录音的背景全都是我在哭。他的哥哥死了。虽然他们从来关系都不是很好,可他还是感到了深深地苦痛。我没问他为什么离开了家。

    I'm ashamed by my privilege and biases. We all have biases, and that's ok. The important thing is to understand and acknowledge our biases. That is the only way for us to defeat biases.
    我为自己的偏见和优势感到惭愧。我们都有偏见,这没关系。重要的是去理解并承认自己的偏见。这是我们唯一能击败偏见的方式。

    If you are interested, Harvard University has a very educational organization called Project Implicit. The website provides several tests for you to understand your own biases that sometimes might be ignored by you. Here is the link: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/index.jsp
    The tests are also available in Chinese. You may simply click on the drop-down menu on the bottom left corner to change the language. Then click "GO!" to select the test you prefer.
    如果你对今天的话题感兴趣,哈佛大学有一个很有教育意义的组织叫做Project Implicit。网站提供几个小测试帮你理解你或许被忽略掉的偏见。网址: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/index.jsp
    测试有中文版,只需点击左下角下拉菜单改个语言就好。选好语言后点"GO!"即可开始选择你想要的测试。

    Let me know what you have discovered in the comments. Thank you for participating in this slightly more serious topic that I covered.
    在评论里告诉我你的发现。感谢你今天参与我讨论的这个稍微严肃一些的话题。
