I was a student in the '60s, a time of social upheaval and questioning,

V šedesátých letech jsem byl student, v době společenských nepokojů a pochyb
00:24
and -- on a personal level -- an awakening sense of idealism.

a na osobní úrovni, v době probuzení idealismu.
00:28
The war in Vietnam was raging, the Civil Rights movement was under way

Ve Větnamu zuřila válka; hnutí za občanská práva povstalo
00:33
and pictures had a powerful influence on me.

a fotografie na mě měly silný vliv.
00:36
Our political and military leaders were telling us one thing
4
17283
3623
Naši političtí a vojenští vůdci nám řekli jednu věc
00:39
and photographers were telling us another.
5
20906
2713
a fotografové nám říkali další.
00:42
I believed the photographers and so did millions of other Americans.
6
23619
4544
Věřil jsem fotografům a miliony Američanů také.
00:47
Their images fuelled resistance to the war and to racism.
7
28163
4161
Fotografie poháněly odpor k válce a k rasismu.
00:51
They not only recorded history -- they helped change the course of history.
8

4644
Nejenom dokumentovaly historii, pomohly změnit kurs dějin.
00:55
Their pictures became part of our collective consciousness
9
36968
3618
Fotografie se staly součástí našeho kolektivního vědomí
00:59
and, as consciousness evolved into a shared sense of conscience,
10
40586
3893
a tak jak se vědomí vyvíjelo v sdílený smysl svědomí,
01:03
change became not only possible, but inevitable.
11

3288
změna se již nebyla již jenom možná, ale neodvratitelná.
01:06
It puts a human face on issues which, from afar,
12
47767
3751
Dává lidský rozměr problémům, které se z dálky
01:10
can appear abstract or ideological or monumental in their global impact.
13
51518
5407
mohou zdát jako abstraktní nebo ideologické či monumentární s ohledem na jejich světový dopad.
01:15
What happens at ground level, far from the halls of power,
14
56925
4645
To, co se děje na daném místě, daleko od sídla moci,
01:20
happens to ordinary citizens one by one.
15
61570
3422
to se děje každému jednotlivému občanovi.
01:23
And I understood that documentary photography
16
64992
2323
A chápal jsem, že dokumentární fotografie,
01:26
has the ability to interpret events from their point of view.
17
67315
4490
má tu možnost interpretovat události z jejich úhlu pohledu.
01:30
It gives a voice to those who otherwise would not have a voice.
18
71805
4048
Dává to volbu těm, kteří by jinak neměli na výběr.
01:34
My TED wish. There’s a vital story that needs to be told
19
75853

Moje TED přání. Existuje příběh, který musí být řečen
01:40
and I wish for TED to help me gain access to it
20
81338
3607
a já si přeju, aby mi TED pomohl pojmout ho
01:43
and then to help me come up with innovative and exciting ways
21
84945
3584
a pak mi pomohl, abych přišel s novými a zajímavými způsoby
01:47
to use news photography in the digital era.
22
88529

jak použít fotografii v digitální době.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
James Nachtwey - PhotojournalistPhotojournalist James Nachtwey is considered by many to be the greatest war photographer of recent decades. He has covered conflicts and major social issues in more than 30 countries.
Why you should listen
For the past three decades, James Nachtwey has devoted himself to documenting wars, conflicts and critical social issues, working in El Salvador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Lebanon, the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, the Philippines, South Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Rwanda, South Africa, Russia, Bosnia, Chechnya, Kosovo, Romania, Brazil and the United States.
Nachtwey has been a contract photographer with Time since 1984. However, when certain stories he wanted to cover -- such as Romanian orphanages and famine in Somalia -- garnered no interest from magazines, he self-financed trips there. He is known for getting up close to his subjects, or as he says, "in the same intimate space that the subjects inhabit," and he passes that sense of closeness on to the viewer.
In putting himself in the middle of conflict, his intention is to record the truth, to document the struggles of humanity, and with this, to wake people up and stir them to action.
