黑奴申述书.txt铁饭碗的真实含义不是在一个地方吃一辈子饭,而是一辈子到哪儿都有饭吃。就算是一坨屎,也有遇见屎壳郎的那天。所以你大可不必为今天的自己有太多担忧。Slave Petition to the Governor, Council, and House of Representatives of the Province of Massachusetts
25 May 1774MHS Collections, 5th ser., 3:432--33
The Petition of a Grate Number of Blackes of this Province who by divine permission are held in a state of Slavery within the bowels of a free and christian Country
Humbly Shewing
That your Petitioners apprehind we have in common with all other men a naturel right to our freedoms without Being depriv'd of them by our fellow men as we are a freeborn Pepel and have never forfeited this Blessing by aney compact or agreement whatever.
But we were unjustly dragged by the cruel hand of power from our dearest frinds and sum of us stolen from the bosoms of our tender Parents and from a Populous Pleasant and plentiful country and Brought hither to be made slaves for Life in a Christian land.
Thus are we deprived of every thing that hath a tendency to make life even tolerable, the endearing ties of husband and wife we are strangers to for we are no longer man and wife then our masters or mestreses thinkes proper marred or onmarred.
Our children are also taken from us by force and sent maney miles from us wear we seldom or ever see them again there to be made slaves of for Life which sumtimes is vere short by Reson of Being dragged from their mothers Breest
Thus our Lives are imbittered to us on these accounts By our deplorable situation we are rendered incapable of shewing our obedience to Almighty God how can a slave perform the duties of a husband to a wife or parent to his child How can a husband leave master and work and cleave to his wife How can the wife submit themselves to there husbands in all things.How can the child obey thear parents in all things.
There is a grat number of us sencear . . . members of the Church of Christ how can the master and the slave be said to fulfil that command Live in love let Brotherly Love contuner and abound Beare yea onenothers Bordenes
How can the master be said to Beare my Borden when he Beares me down whith the Have chanes of slavery and operson against my will and how can we fulfill our parte of duty to him whilst in this condition and as we cannot searve our God as we ought whilst in this situation Nither can we reap an equal benefet from the laws of the Land which doth not justifi but condemns Slavery or if there had bin aney Law to hold us in Bondege we are Humbely of the Opinon ther never was aney to inslave our children for life when Born in a free Countrey.
We therefor Bage your Excellency and Honours will give this its deu weight and consideration and that you will accordingly cause an act of the legislative to be pessed that we may obtain our Natural right our freedoms and our children be set at lebety at the yeare o
f Twenty one for whoues sekes more petequeley your Petitioners is in Duty ever to Pray.
向马萨诸塞州总督、议会以及众议院递交的奴隶申诉
申诉:在一个自由的基督教国家里,数量众多的黑人仍处于奴隶状态中。
尊敬的各位先生
作为请求人我们认为,我们与其他人同样拥有不可剥夺的天赋自由。我们作为自由
出生的人民,从来没有因任何契约和协议而丧失这样的权利。
但是,残暴的强权不公正的将我们与最亲爱的朋友分离、从母亲温暖的怀抱偷去。迫
使我们离开那快乐富饶的国家,来到这里。在这片基督徒的土地上,作为奴隶活着。
我们被剥夺尽了所有,没有任何的保留哪怕一点点的依靠,甚至无法作为夫妻来彼此安
慰。我们不再是男人和妻子,我们彼此都是陌生人,我们的主人可随意的撮合或拆散我们。
我们的孩子被强夺,被送去远方,我们再也看不到他们。他们生来就是奴隶。很多孩子因
为离开母亲的怀抱而只有短暂的生命。
我们的生活境况是如此的苦楚。我们无法向上帝显示我们的谦卑,一个奴隶又怎能尽到丈
夫对妻子的责任,父母对孩子的责任?作为丈夫怎能不顾主人和工作,忠于他的妻子?而妻
子又怎能顺服他们的丈夫?孩子们又怎能从他们的父母那里获得教导?
许多人都不明白...作为基督徒。主和奴隶是怎样可能充满灵命,互相以兄弟般的爱相待、
无限的心互相忍耐?怎能说主已担当我们的重负?他让我失望,用奴隶的链条和束缚来
回应我的愿望。在这样的悲惨境地,怎能将我们献祭于他,我们怎能诚心服侍上帝?
我们不能从这片土地的法律获得同样的益处,看到公正对奴隶制的谴责。如果有任何法律
将我们奴役中,我们谦卑的请求:我们的孩子出生在一个自由的国家,没有人继续奴役我们的孩子。
我们为此请求,请阁下以荣誉仔细的权衡和考量,提请立法通过,使我们获得我们天赋的
自由并且使我们的孩子在21岁获得自由。我们寻求更多的公正,向您申诉的人为您永远祈
祷。
