卑诗省政界人士和领袖正在谴责一场疑似白人至上主义者聚会,地点位于甘露市以东的 Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc 保留地。
B.C. politicians and leaders are denouncing an apparent gathering of white nationalists on the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc reserve, just east of Kamloops.
Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc 首领 Rosanne Casimir 表示,该部落于周日早晨接到报告,约有 30 名男子身穿白色面罩和黑色帽子,聚集在保留地内,肩扛旗帜站立在一起。
Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc Kúkpi7 Rosanne Casimir says the nation received reports Sunday morning of a gathering of roughly 30 men, donning white face masks and black caps, standing together around the reserve while hoisting flags over their shoulders.
新闻稿中,Casimir 称“与白人至上主义和白人民族主义意识形态有关联的组织‘加拿大次子’的相关人员,已被发现并记录在我们的社区内。”“白人至上主义无法在幸存者和代际幸存者心中植入恐惧,他们背负恐惧的时间已经太长了,”Casimir 在声明中说。
press release Casimir said "individuals associated with Second Sons Canada, a group linked to white supremacist and white nationalist ideology, have been seen and documented within our community." "White supremacy will not instill fear in generations of survivors and intergenerational survivors who have already carried fear for far too long," said Casimir in the release.
社交媒体上流传的图片显示,旗帜和衣物上出现了与“加拿大次子”有关的标志。不过,CBC 新闻无法独立核实这些人的身份或其组织隶属关系。
Images circulating on social media appear to show logos on flags and clothing affiliated with Second Sons Canada However, CBC News has not been able to independently verify the identities of the individuals or their group affiliations.
Casimir 告诉 CBC 新闻,保留地安保人员告知这些男子不得聚集,并要求他们离开。然而,直到皇家骑警被叫到并抵达现场,他们才离开。
Casimir told CBC News that the reserve's security told the men they were not permitted to gather and asked them to leave. However, they did not leave until RCMP were called and arrived at the scene.
卑诗省领袖发表联合声明谴责反原住民种族主义 CBC 新闻已联系皇家骑警,但在发稿前未收到回复。
Leaders in B.C. release joint statement condemning anti-Indigenous racism CBC News reached out to the RCMP but did not hear back before publication.
新民主党领袖 David Eby 于周日下午在温哥华国际机场发表讲话时表示,卑诗省出现了此类“白人民族主义行为”的上升趋势,并补充说需要做更多工作来“对抗它”。“这是可耻、令人作呕的行为。很明显,这些人试图恐吓他人,制造恐惧,”省长说道,并补充说,如果这些戴面罩男子的身份被查明,他们将面临严厉惩罚。
Speaking at the Vancouver International Airport Sunday afternoon, NDP Leader David Eby said there has been a rise "in this kind of white nationalist behaviour" in B.C., adding that more needs to be done "to fight it." "This is just disgraceful, disgusting behaviour. It's very clear that these people were trying to intimidate, make people feel fearful," said the premier, adding that the men in face masks would face severe retribution if their identities were known.
“今早在特克姆卢普斯塞克韦佩姆克土地上举行的白人至上主义集会充满仇恨,意在恐吓。它在英属哥伦比亚省没有立足之地,”不列颠哥伦比亚省保守党临时领袖洛恩·多尔克森在社交媒体上发文表示。他补充说,“不列颠哥伦比亚省保守党对此予以彻底谴责。”
"The white nationalist gathering on Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc land this morning was hateful and meant to intimidate. It has no place in British Columbia," said Lorne Doerkson, interim leader of the B.C. Conservative Party, in a post to social media. He added that the "B.C. Conservatives condemn it completely."
特拉阿明国公民表示,鲍威尔河周边的反原住民种族主义正在加剧。中道党领袖埃伦诺尔·斯特尔科在社交媒体上称此次集会是“令人憎恶的”。“任何形式的仇恨和歧视在英属哥伦比亚省都不受欢迎。我代表中道党全体成员谴责这种行为,并与特克姆卢普斯第一民族团结一致,”她表示。
Anti-Indigenous racism increasing around Powell River, say Tla'amin Nation citizens CentreBC Leader Elenore Sturko, in a post on social media, called the gathering "abhorrent." "Hate and discrimination of any kind are unwelcome in British Columbia and on behalf of all members of Centre BC, I condemn this behaviour and stand in solidarity with the Tkʼemlúps First Nation," she said.
卡西米尔表示,该民族定于9月30日“真相与和解日”举行的活动计划将照常进行。“我们不会受到恐吓,”卡西米尔说。
Plans for the nation's events for Truth and Reconciliation Day on Sept. 30, Casimir said, will go ahead. "We will not be intimidated," said Casimir.
“这不会阻止我们聚集、反思,或纪念我们的幸存者以及回归家园的孩子们,”她说。但卡西米尔指出,这一事件是一个更广泛问题的缩影。
"This is not going to deter us from gathering, reflecting, or honouring our survivors and the children who returned home," she said. But this incident, Casimir said, is an example of a broader problem.
“每个人都应该始终感到担忧,因为外界存在大量的种族主义和歧视。”她表示,如果出现进一步的安全隐患,特克姆卢普斯塞克韦佩姆克将及时向社区成员通报情况。
"Everyone should always be concerned because there's so much racism and discrimination out there." She said Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc will keep its community members informed if there are further safety concerns.
