已删除:在过去十年间,专家们一直警告称,美国的白人至上主义正在死灰复燃,而像唐纳德·特朗普总统这样的政治人物在主流社会中的影响力,也在一定程度上助长了这一趋势。
Deleted: Experts have warned over the past decade of a resurgence in white supremacy in the United States, fuelled in part by the mainstream influence of political figures like President Donald Trump.
就在今年,公共宗教研究协会公布了2025年的一项调查结果。该调查询问了超过2万名美国成年人对以下陈述的看法:“移民正在入侵我们的国家,并取代我们的文化和民族背景。”这种观点正是“大替换论”的核心——这一阴谋论错误地声称,移民、犹太人以及非白人群体试图在西方国家取代白人的地位。
Just this year, the Public Religion Research Institute released the results of a 2025 survey that asked more than 20,000 US adults to evaluate the statement, “Immigrants are invading our country and replacing our cultural and ethnic background.”That belief is the cornerstone of the great replacement theory a conspiracy that falsely claims that immigrants, Jews and nonwhite groups seek to supplant white people in Western countries. The research institute found that 32 percent of respondents – nearly one in three – nevertheless agreed with the idea.
该研究机构发现,仍有32%的受访者——几乎每三人中就有一人——认同这一观点。
Critics have accused right-wing leaders like Trump of normalising such views, through rhetoric that paints immigration as an “invasion” and “an assault on Western countries”.
批评人士指责特朗普等右翼领导人通过将移民问题描述为“入侵”和“对西方国家的攻击”等言论,使这类观点变得正常化。
Trump has also been accused of cosying up to white nationalists, even dining in 2022 with Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes, a key figure in the movement.
特朗普还被指控与白人民族主义者勾结,甚至曾在2022年与否认大屠杀的尼克·富恩特斯共进晚餐,而后者正是这一运动的关键人物。2017年,当白人民族主义者与抗议者在弗吉尼亚州夏洛茨维尔发生致命冲突时,特朗普曾表示,“双方都有不错的人”。
When white nationalists engaged in a deadly clash with protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, Trump said there were “fine people on both sides”. Al Jazeera correspondent Phil Lavelle travelled to Boone County, Arkansas, to see whether one of the most infamous white supremacist organisations in US history had seen a bump in its influence midway through Trump’s second term.
半岛电视台记者菲尔·拉维尔前往阿肯色州布恩县,考察美国历史上最臭名昭著的白人至上主义组织之一,在特朗普第二个任期中期是否出现了影响力的回升。
He spoke to Thomas Robb, the head of what was formerly known as the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist group founded in the 1970s by David Duke.
他与托马斯·罗布进行了交谈。罗布此前是“克卢克骑士团”的负责人,该白人至上主义组织由戴维·杜克于20世纪70年代创立。
What Lavelle found was a group seemingly eager to rebrand. The group had shortened its title to The Knights Party, and members told Lavelle they were trying to re-centre their message around family and faith.
拉维尔发现,这个组织似乎急于重塑形象。他们已将组织名称缩短为“骑士党”,成员们告诉拉维尔,他们正试图将宣传重点重新聚焦于家庭与信仰。
But when Lavelle asked if a Black person would be welcome at the group’s church, Robb’s answer was simple. “No,” Robb responded.
但当拉维尔询问一名黑人是否会被该组织的教会接纳时,罗布的回答非常简单。
“Because this is a white nationalist church.”
“不,”罗布回应道,“因为这是一个白人至上主义的教会。”美国三K党(KKK)有着长期的人种歧视和暴力历史。该运动始于1865年内战结束之际,作为政府向黑人和其他少数族裔扩大公民权利举措的回应。
The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) has a long history of racism and violence in the US. The movement began at the end of the civil war in 1865, as a response to government efforts to expand civil rights to Black people and other minority groups. Through lynchings and other targeted acts of violence, the KKK attempted to block non-white participation in government and maintain racial divides.
通过私刑处决和其他有针对性的暴力行为,三K党试图阻止非白人参政,并维持种族隔离。
Robb, a Christian pastor, took over as the head of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan – a faction of the KKK – in 1989.
身为基督教牧师的罗布于1989年接任三K党下属组织“三K党骑士团”的负责人。此后,他一直试图扩大该组织的吸引力。
He has since attempted to broaden the group’s appeal. He changed his title from “grand wizard” to “national director”, allowed new members to participate confidentially by mail, and distanced himself from KKK violence in public outreach campaigns.
他将自己的头衔从“大巫师”改为“国家总监”,允许新成员通过邮寄方式秘密加入,并在公开宣传活动中与三K党的暴力行为划清界限。尽管如此,他仍然坚持其组织所信奉的种族主义理念。
Still, he has adhered to the racist philosophy his organisation is known for. “What do you make of politicians like Zohran Mamdani or Abdul El-Sayed?”
“你对佐兰·马姆达尼或阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德这样的政治家怎么看?”拉维尔在采访中向罗布提问,并提到了这两位自认是穆斯林的美国知名政治家。
Lavelle asked Robb in his interview, referencing two high-profile US politicians who identify as Muslim. “Well, first off, they’re not Americans,” Robb said.
“首先,他们不是美国人,”罗布说。当拉维尔指出埃尔-赛义德出生于密歇根州时,罗布却无视这一矛盾。“我不管他出生在哪里。他不是美国人。”他接着区分了白人移民和非白人移民的子女。罗布声称,只有白外国人的子女才能成为美国人,“因为他们是白人”。“三K党骑士团”是美国数十个白人至上主义组织之一。
When Lavelle pointed out that El-Sayed was born in Michigan, Robb brushed off the contradiction. “I don’t care where he’s born. He’s not American.”He proceeded to draw a distinction between the children of white and non-white immigrants. Only the children of white foreigners can be American, Robb said, “because they’re white”. The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan is one of dozens of white supremacy organisations operating in the US. The Southern Poverty Law Center, an advocacy group, estimates that there are at least 152 such groups active in the US today, part of what it calls a rising trend over the last decade.
倡导组织“南方贫困法律中心”估计,目前美国至少有152个此类组织活跃,这属于该组织所称的过去十年间不断上升的趋势。
Just this year, another white supremacist organisation, the Patriot Front, marched through Washington, DC during the Independence Day holiday.
就在今年,另一个白人至上主义组织“爱国者阵线”在独立日假期期间于华盛顿特区举行了游行。
Critics say Trump, at times, has echoed their rhetoric.
批评人士称,特朗普有时也重复了他们的言论。今年早些时候,特朗普告诉《纽约时报》,在学术界等领域,“白人的待遇非常糟糕”。
Trump told The New York Times earlier this year that “white people were very badly treated” in fields like academics. He also instructed his second administration to dismantle diversity initiatives, and under his leadership, the government has launched probes into whether universities and companies like Nike discriminate against white people.
他还指示其第二任政府取消多元化计划,在他的领导下,政府已展开调查,以判断大学和耐克等公司是否歧视白人。
In addition, Trump has given priority to white South Africans in refugee admissions, falsely claiming they are the subject of a “genocide”.
此外,特朗普在难民接纳方面优先考虑了白人南非人,并错误地声称他们正遭受“种族灭绝”。
Robb claimed the current rise in white nationalist sentiment began well before Trump, in 2008, during the election of Barack Obama, the country’s first Black president.
罗布声称,当前白人民族主义情绪的兴起远早于特朗普,始于2008年巴拉克·奥巴马——美国首位黑人总统——当选之时。
“People are beginning to stir and being angered by what they see happening to the country,” said Robb.
“人们开始感到不安,并对他们看到国家正在发生的一切感到愤怒,”罗布说,“因此,我们在某种程度上成了他们的发声者。”不过,罗布也承认,公众对加入他这样的白人至上主义组织持谨慎态度。“至于人们真正成为成员,这有时是他们不太愿意跨越的一道线,”他说。
“So we’re kind of a voice for that.”Still, Robb acknowledged public wariness of joining a white supremacist group like his. “As for people actually to become members, that’s kind of a line they [are] a little hesitant to cross sometimes,” he said.
当被问及会员人数或要求提供证据来支持他关于其运动“支持率正在增长”的说法时,他也予以拒绝。“也许我们错了。也许所有人都讨厌我们。我不知道,”罗布说。
He also declined when asked to provide membership numbers or provide evidence for his assertion that support for his movement “is growing”. “Maybe we’re wrong. Maybe everybody hates us. I don’t know,” Robb said.
