Amsterdam is a hub for trafficking children asylum seekers into sex slavery 阿姆斯特丹是一个枢纽，贩卖儿童的寻求庇护者进入性奴役

What I didn’t like was the way the people hogged the whole sidewalk along the Amstel river.什么我不喜欢的方式是人民的hogged整个人行道上沿着Amstel河。 It seemed to get worse and worse the closer I got to seven hundred year old inner Amsterdam.它似乎得到日益严重密切，我要七百年岁的内蒙古阿姆斯特丹。

I like to step along at a good pace.我想一步，在一个良好的步伐。 I’m used to city walking.我使用的城市散步。 But annoying the shoe leather out of me is the practice of those who decide to stroll three or four abreast.但恼人的制鞋皮革出于我的做法是那些谁决定漫步三个或四个掌握。 Whether they are ahead of me or not, I make like a human wedge and divide them.无论他们是我前面或没有，我想使一个人楔和鸿沟。

Truly, if they appear to be upscale Dutch and are snobbishly acting as if they own the concrete, I’m determined to ‘bust them up’. 真正的，如果他们似乎是高档的荷兰语和snobbishly作为，如果他们自己的具体，我决心要'半身像起来' 。 I’m like a bowling ball streaking down the lane at ten pins. 我就像一个保龄球球streaking下来里在10针。

I used to wonder why I felt heated and edgy in the Netherlands city clogged with banks bursting from canals and cash.我曾经想知道为什么我觉得激烈和edgy在荷兰的城市堵塞与银行爆破，从运河和现金。 Then I found out about prison ships for refugees.然后我发现对监狱船的难民。 Across the town of a million residents, Indonesian, Aruban, Surinamese and other former colonial peoples have to occupy the bottom rung of society.全国城市100万居民，印尼文，阿鲁巴，苏里南和其他前殖民地的人民占据底部的鸣响社会。 The Dutch government also is part of a crew of military forces in Afghanistan, and behind all of the guns and bombs Dutch Shell Oil isn’t thinking of leaving Iraq without extending the profit haul.荷兰政府也是一个组成部分船员的军事力量在阿富汗，和背后所有的枪炮和炸弹的荷兰壳牌石油是没有思想离开伊拉克没有延长检获的利润。 But an Iraqi or Niger Delta sufferer better think twice about arriving in Amsterdam or Rotterdam harbor seeking political and humanitarian asylum.但一名伊拉克或尼日尔河三角洲患者更好地三思在抵达阿姆斯特丹或鹿特丹港寻求政治和人道主义庇护。

I don’t put my finger on one aggravating factor.我不把我的手指上一加重处罚的因素。

The links to Suharto, East Timor, the White-first regime in Johannesburg and the African captives in New Amsterdam (later New York City) give this man no cheer.链接苏哈托，东帝汶，白首政权在约翰内斯堡和非洲的俘虏，在新阿姆斯特丹（后来的新纽约市） ，让这名男子并没有欢呼。

What I believe it must be is an amalgam.是什么，我相信它必须是一银汞合金。

I put it down to the years I have absorbed experiences and related my own in a number of Europe’s metropoles.我把它下降到多年来，我吸收的经验和我自己有关，在一些欧洲的metropoles 。

For one item, I’m not in any misty illusion about Europe’s historical tether to Africa.为一个项目，我不是在任何有薄雾的幻想，对欧洲的历史纽带，以非洲。

Not a few Europeans, dissidents in their own right, have aided my partner and I in exile. 没有几个欧洲人，持不同政见者在他们自己的权利，已资助我的伙伴和我在流亡。 This sets them apart from those that insist that America isn’t so bad–and who try and decry the fact of African people in America having a Human Right to cultural and political Self Determination like any other people . 这个集他们除了那些坚持认为，美国是不会那么差，和谁尝试和decry事实上，非洲人民在美国有一个人的权利，文化和政治自决的任何其他人民一样 。

The courageous and the sincere get their propers; I have been impressed by a certain breed (often under age thirty) that have begun to see what a oozing heap Western society is.勇敢和真诚得到他们propers ;我已留下深刻的印象某品种（往往是30岁以下）已开始见什么渗血堆西方社会是。 Their parents’ generation, ‘leaders’ and their people in general contaminated the globe and still they have gone into battle for a better world.他们的父母一代， '领导人和两国人民在一般污染全球，他们仍然已经投入战斗，为一个更美好的世界。 Life’s twists have enabled me to meet inspiring people.人生的曲折，使我满足鼓舞人。

I can count Amsterdam as one place that some of these youthful visionaries, imperfect and sometimes in short lived pulses, came forward to put action first.我能够指望阿姆斯特丹作为一个地方的一些有远见的这些年轻的，不完善的，有时甚至在短暂的脉冲，挺身而出，把行动第一。 An age gap, sometimes separates these self described autonomist and anarchists from another group, elderly, Left or ex Leftists that brought about 1950s and 60s social change.一年龄的差距，有时分开，这些自我描述的自治和无政府主义者从另一组，老人，左或前左派带来约五十年代和六十年代的社会变革。 People born between 1955 and 1975, ironically those my age, are the ones often missing in action.人出生， 1955年至1975年，具有讽刺意味的那些我的年龄，是那些经常在行动中失踪。 There was a period when the West shook with internal rebellion.曾有一段时期，当西方的震撼与内部叛乱。 Imperialistic and Cyclops-like, it slipped from total domination.帝国主义和独眼巨人一样，它下滑，从总的统治。 Yet in Europe there remain the animated ones coming of age and coming on board with energy and drive.然而，在欧洲仍然存在动画的时代的到来和未来对董事会与能源和驱动器。

That warms my heart.这宽慰我的心。

But probably knowing that repercussions of hundreds of years of Dutch capitalist, religious and just plain oppressive power across the world continues to do harm gives me the neck prickles.但也许是知道的反响数百年来，荷兰的资本主义，宗教和公正的平原压迫的权力在世界各地继续做伤害，让我有颈部prickles 。

It’s alarming to me that girls and women in Dutch and Belgian refugee camps and centers are raped routinely, according to a UNHCR study in 2008. 它的令人震惊的，我认为女孩和妇女在荷兰和比利时的难民营和中心经常被强奸 ， 根据难民署的研究在2008年。 A third of the accused rapists are Europeans, staff that are supposed to be providing a haven for the victims. 三分之一的被告强奸犯是欧洲人，工作人员说，是为了提供避难所的受害者。

As I move along, sidestepping others walking the Amsterdam streets, I can think of these incidents and causes of inequity.作为我谨动议一直以来，回避别人走在阿姆斯特丹的街道上，我能想到的这些事件和原因的不公平现象。 The Dutch East India Company building is preserved and stands as a grim reminder.荷兰东印度公司的建设，是保存和立场，作为一个严峻的提醒。

But I also have a destination: an active role in making sure that it ends, and soon.但我也有一个目的地：一个积极的角色并确定它结束，并很快。
