「平和」に必要な視点とは?
What is necessary for Peace ?
What is necessary for Peace ?
2016年5月にはいり、「オバマ大統領が訪広」ということで、
話を伺った被爆者さん、語り部さんに、「はなし(story)」を伺いにいった。
Since May 2016, media coverage become
full of ‘US president Obama’s Hiroshima visit’, so that I also contacted hibakusha those whom I contacted once, one by one again.
印象的だったのは、上田満子さん。
「どう思われますか?」と水を向けると、
即座に、
「喧嘩は両成敗。どちらも双方に悪いから、悪いことが続き、戦争が続く。まず秘密裡の核開発をやめるべき。」と、竹を割ったようにすっと答えがでてきた。
Mrs.Ueda’s response was the most impressive;
” Many Japanese medias are taking ‘apology’. What do you think about that?”
Mrs.Ueda quickly answered,“ Apology is not first priority, nor
immediately necessary, neither. Both sides have Evils in any wars. Firstly should
be stopped is secretive development of Nuke-bombs.”
遺族で語り部のかたは、
「米オバマ氏が広島にくることはすごいこと。プラハでスピーチをし、その想いを二期の在職期間切ることなく持ち続け、最後にこの地へくるというのは、頭もいいし誠実な証拠。
男の子を育てていると、かならず『けんか』をする。学校へ呼び出されたことも数知れず。
それでも、我が子だけの言い分を聞くのではなく、学校の上のひとたちと、『双方の言い分を聞く』ことが大事だと教えられた。かならず『けんかの原因』は続いている。その『続いている要因を聞く』ことがとても大事だと子育てを通じて強く感じた。小さなことに思えるけど、それは『戦争』も同じだと思う・・。」
Another told me;
“US president’s visiting Hiroshima can not
be titled in easy words. He made his speech in Prague, and has kept his thought
& belief until the end of his presidency. While raising boys personally,
fights are daily matter for a mother, and every case, discussing with
teachers, I understood all fights continue, To search buds for frictions
is important. I learned through raising boys. ‘Wars’ & ‘boys fights’ have
so much in common.
今、必要なのは「双方が腑に落ちて理解でき、自我崩壊させないための話「はなし(story)」づくり、「物語(ものがたりstories)の拡大、というところまで「視点・思考」を遠隔に伸ばすことだと思う。
What is necessary now is to make “stories for
both of us”, that supports ”each sides’ identities”. In order to do that, we have to expand our imagination power and try to follow the different
culture’s ways of thinking openly.
The ability to tell stories about who we are is what makes us different from animals.
I mean, that’s our job. To tell a really good story about who we are.
