class="dark-link perm_post"> Nimekuwa nikisema kila mara, “Jipe mwendo, jiendeshe mwenyewe.” Ningemwambia mke wangu na kusema, “Kila pigano si pigano lako. Na ningesema kwa vijana na wengine wakati fulani, "Msiwe na haraka. Mapambano yetu si mapambano ya siku moja, wiki moja, mwezi mmoja au mwaka mmoja au maisha moja. Ni mapambano endelevu."</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Kwa hivyo, subira - sawa, ndio.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Na katika hotuba ya Machi juu ya Washington, nilikuwa na maneno mengi na, mwishowe, nilijua ndani ya nafsi yangu kuwa ingekuwa ndefu na ninaamini hivyo. Lakini haubadilishi ulimwengu, jamii, katika siku chache, na ni bora zaidi. Ni afadhali kuwa rubani wa mwanga kuliko kuwa kifyatulia risasi <em>[anacheka]</em> .</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> kulia.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Kwa sababu ikiwa wewe ni mwanga wa majaribio, utakuwa karibu. Kifyatua risasi kikija ndani yako, nenda tu. Uko hapa dakika moja na umeenda wakati ujao.</p><p> [ <em>Muziki: “Po' Pilgrim of Sorrow” na James Horner & Sweet Honey in the Rock</em> ]</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Mimi ni Krista Tippett na hii ni <em>On Being</em> . Leo tukimkumbuka mbunge na nguli wa haki za kiraia John Lewis aliyefariki wiki iliyopita. Nilikuwa na heshima kubwa ya kuzungumza naye huko Montgomery, Alabama mnamo 2013 - kama sehemu ya hija ya haki za kiraia ya bunge ambayo aliiongoza kwa miaka mingi.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Je, unanisikia? Ingawa kuna mvutano wa ubunifu hapa, ni mstari unaotembea.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Ndiyo.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Na inaonekana kama ninaposoma historia ya harakati, wewe na wengine mnatembea huku na huko kuvuka mstari huo kila wakati. Lakini ilikuwa kwamba kuweka, kama wewe kusema, pacing, kwa namna fulani daima kuwa na uwezo wa kuvuta nyuma na kuona masafa marefu, nadhani. Ni msimamo huo, ni mtazamo huo.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Lakini tulitaka kukomesha ubaguzi sasa. Tulitaka watu waweze kujiandikisha na kupiga kura sasa. Na tulikuwa na kauli mbiu inayoitwa "Uhuru Sasa." Lakini kukabidhi aina ya athari ya mapinduzi, itachukua muda mrefu zaidi wakati utaweza kubadilisha akili na mioyo na roho za watu.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Je, uzoefu huo, maadili uliyojifunza, yanatiririkaje katika maisha yako katika siasa katika wakati wetu?</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Naam, nadhani leo mimi ni mtu bora zaidi na binadamu bora zaidi. Wakati fulani ninapoketi kwenye sakafu ya Bunge au katika kikao cha kamati, ninahisi kama wakati fulani nikisema, unajua, nilipitia njia hii hapo awali. Unajua, ikiwa ningerudi Nashville au Georgia kwenye maandamano au labda kwenye safari ya uhuru, tungefanya nini? Martin Luther King Jr. angesema nini? Gandhi angefanya nini? Kwa hiyo huwezi kukata tamaa juu ya kanuni fulani za msingi na mafundisho ya msingi.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Sidhani kama kuna mtu yeyote angeshutumu Bunge kwa sasa kuwa ni jumuiya inayopendwa.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Naam, nadhani tuna umbali fulani kutoka kuwa jumuiya pendwa, lakini sitakata tamaa kwenye Congress. Na ni matumaini yangu kwamba, wakati wajumbe wa Congress watakapokuja kwa safari na safari na hija, kwamba watajifunza kitu, kwamba itakua na kuwa wanachama bora na wanadamu bora zaidi.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Unajua, baadhi ya vipengele vikali vya utamaduni huu usio na unyanyasaji ambao ulikuwa umezama ndani, ambao sasa unaleta maishani mwako kama mbunge - hiki ndicho kitu nilichosoma katika kitabu chako, kwamba baada ya milipuko ya moto ya kanisa la Birmingham ambapo wasichana wadogo wanne waliuawa, ambapo nilipata fursa ya kuwa nawe mwishoni mwa wiki hii, Mchungaji, Mfalme wa magumu alisema, katika maisha magumu. licha ya giza la saa hii, hatupaswi kupoteza imani kwa ndugu zetu weupe.” Unajua, wazo hilo linalodai sana sio tu la kuwa na imani ndani yako au imani katika harakati zako, lakini imani kwa adui zako.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Lazima uamini na kamwe, kamwe, huwezi kukata tamaa kwa uwezekano wowote. Ni sehemu yake, kama nilivyosema, tangu mwanzo. Tayari imefanywa. Unahitaji tu kutafuta njia ya kuifanya iwe kweli.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Nakumbuka ulipoandika juu ya kuwa mwanafunzi na kufichuliwa na ulimwengu wa falsafa na teolojia na kusoma juu ya dhana ya lahaja na kufikiria juu ya utengano kama tasnifu na mapambano dhidi ya ubaguzi kama kipingamizi na ujumuishaji kama msingi, mwisho. Nashangaa unaonaje sasa, kwa sababu lahaja huanza tena na nini ...</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Naam, sidhani kama ni muhimu kuanza tena. Lakini nilikuwa na mwalimu mzuri sana nilipokuwa katika Chuo cha American Baptist College. Jina lake lilikuwa John Lewis Powell, na angeanza kujadili wazo hili la thesis na antithesis na usanisi, na angekimbia kuzunguka ubao kuandika na kuruka.</p><p> Hivyo ndivyo mapambano yamekuwa yakihusu, kuleta nguvu hizi zinazoshindana pamoja, kuleta wanadamu pamoja, na kuunda hali ya jumuiya, kuunda hali hii ya familia, ambayo kutoka kwa wema - nzuri tayari iko. Mapenzi yapo. Je, unaifanyaje iwe kweli? Unachoraje picha? Ni kama msanii anayetumia turubai. Unawafanyaje watu wahame kutoka labda A kwenda B na wewe kupata C? Au kutoka moja hadi mbili na kupata tatu? Kwamba uko kwenye njia na lazima uwe thabiti na lazima uwe na bidii.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Na subira.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Na mvumilivu.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> kulia.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Na yote ni juu ya kuwa mwaminifu, kuwa mwaminifu, kuwa muwazi.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Ni wazi sana kwa kila mafanikio ya ubinadamu na kwa hakika na harakati za haki za kiraia kwamba mabadiliko mengi muhimu, mabadiliko mazuri, yalitokea na bado kuna kazi nyingi zaidi ya kufanya. Matatizo yasiyotarajiwa yanaonekana, vikwazo vinaonekana, kwamba hata mambo yote bora tunayofanya yanabaki kuwa yasiyo kamili na yasiyo kamili. Je, unafikirije kuhusu hilo na kuhusu mahali ambapo vuguvugu liko katika suala la imani yako?</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Kweli, ninafikiria juu yake, lakini lazima uamini kunaweza kuwa na vikwazo, kunaweza kuwa na tamaa fulani, kunaweza kuwa na usumbufu fulani. Lakini, tena, unapaswa kuchukua muda mrefu, kuangalia kwa bidii. Kwa imani hii, itakuwa sawa; itafanikiwa. Ikiwa haikutokea wakati wa maisha yako, basi labda, sio labda, lakini ingetokea katika maisha ya mtu fulani. Lakini lazima ufanye yote unayoweza kufanya wakati unachukua nafasi hii wakati wako. Na wakati mwingine ninahisi kuwa sifanyi vya kutosha kujaribu kuhamasisha kizazi kingine cha watu kutafuta njia ya kuingia, kuleta shida, shida nzuri. Ninapiga kelele kidogo tu.</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> Nadhani unajumuisha mambo unayozungumza na kwamba tunakutazama kama vile kukusikia. Unasogeza miguu yako <em>[hucheka]</em> . Kwa hivyo, John Lewis, ninataka kukushukuru sana kwa maisha ambayo umeishi na kwa mazungumzo haya ambayo tumeweza kuwa nawe mchana wa leo.</p><p> <b>Lewis:</b> Naam, asante sana. Nilifurahia. Asante.</p><p> [ <em>Muziki: “Nitaishi Maisha Ninayoimba Kuhusu” na RL Knowles</em> ]</p><p> <b>Tippett:</b> John Lewis alikufa huko Atlanta, Georgia mnamo Julai 17, 2020, akiwa na umri wa miaka 80. Alikuwa mbunge wa chama cha Democratic kutoka wilaya ya 5 ya Georgia.
