二十年的回望
二十年前,我只是一個中學生,曾經參加過大大小小不同的集會和遊行。二十年來的集會,我大約參予了超過一半。曾經思考過繼續參加的意義和作用,結果這幾年仍是繼續。不知不覺地,已二十年了。
從來沒有想過在香港這資訊發達的地方,歷史可以被埋沒。我中學時代的歷史科對中國近代史也是輕輕帶過。對大躍進和文革的描述亦是十分含糊,但最少我也知道文革大概是怎麽一回事。然而,聽得多新一代言論令我驚覺很多時不是如我所想理所當然。我不怪新一代對歷史的不關心,最多只能說是無奈。因為我相信我不能把自己的價值觀强加新一代。不過面對新一代對是非黑白的扭曲就不得不正視。
今年的集會對我來說多了一份意義。這不單是要告訊當權者歷史不能被埋沒,亦是期望被洗腦的新一代看到我們經歷過那時代的人思想和他們的差異,重新思考自己價值觀的正確性。
謹以 Les Miserable 的一曲 Drink with me 送給二十年前的死難者:
ENJOLRAS: Marius, rest.
FEUILLY: Drink with me to days gone by. Sing with me the songs we knew
PROUVAIRE: Here’s to pretty girls who went to our heads. JOLY: Here’s to witty girls who went to our beds. ALL: Here’s to them and here’s to you! GRANTAIRE: Drink with me to days gone by. Can it be you fear to die? Will the world remember you When you fall? Could it be your death Means nothing at all? Is your life just one more lie?
ALL: Drink with me to days gone by. To the life that used to be WOMEN: At the shrine of friendship, never say die MEN: Let the wine of friendship never run dry ALL: Here’s to you and here’s to me
