I'm 150 feet down an illegal mine shaft in Ghana.
我在加纳地下50米深的一个非法矿井里。
The air is thick with heat and dust,
空气污浊闷热，充斥着尘土，
and it's hard to breathe.
让人很难呼吸。
I can feel the brush of sweaty bodies passing me in the darkness, but I can't see much else.
我可以感觉到来来往往大汗淋漓的人们从我身边擦过，但是在一片黑暗中，我也看不见什么其他的东西了。
I hear voices talking, but mostly the shaft is this cacophony of men coughing,
我听到周围有人说话的声音，但更多是咳嗽声，

and stone being broken with primitive tools.
混杂着用简陋工具砸碎石头的噪音。
Like the others, I wear a flickering, cheap flashlight tied to my head with this elastic, tattered band,
跟其他人一样，我头上顶着一个时亮时灭的廉价探照灯用一条破烂的皮筋绑在脖子上，
and I can barely make out the slick tree limbs holding up the walls of the three-foot square hole dropping hundreds of feet into the earth.
我勉强摸到墙上光溜溜的树枝扶手，它们支撑着这个一米见方深上百米的井筒。
When my hand slips, I suddenly remember a miner,
我的手滑了一下，立即想到数天前碰到的一名矿工,
I had met days before who had lost his grip,
他一手抓空,
and fell countless feet down that shaft.
就掉下了无底深井。
As I stand talking to you today,
当我今天站在这里跟你们演讲的时候，
these men are still deep in that hole,
这些矿工们还在这样的矿井里，
risking their lives without payment or compensation,
冒着生命危险干活,没有工资,没有补贴，
and often dying.
还经常丢命。
I got to climb out of that hole, and I got to go home,
我最后爬出了矿井得以回家，
but they likely never will, because they're trapped in slavery.
