“障碍物”言论遭网民炮轰 网红受邀了解锡克教徒习俗

将锡克教徒男子头上的头巾包比喻为阻挡视线的“障碍物”,新加坡网红遭网民炮轰说话欠敏感和同理心!不过,锡克教徒青年协会却采取另一种方式看待问题,让彼此从中学习受益。

网红Sheena Phua于9月21日在社交媒体Instagram的限时动态(Instastory)中上载了世界一级方程式塞车(F1)的照片,其中有一张照片讲述其前面坐着的两名包着白色头巾的锡克教徒男子,并写道“当当!两个巨大的障碍物出现啦!(Dang! 2 huge obstructions decided to appear out of nowhere)”

可想而知,拥有7万6000名追随者的美容和旅游网红,当时即刻遭到许多网民的炮轰,指她的言论已经侮辱到这两名男子和他们的宗教信仰了。

网红:言论意思遭歪曲

面对众人指责其种族主义且缺乏文化敏感度,Sheena随后在限时动态中致歉,并坚称并没有意图要冒犯锡克教徒群或其他宗教。

她澄清自己在之前言论中所指的障碍物,是指两人的身体都很高,坐在她的前面阻碍了视线。她也表示其言论被歪曲了,而且无论对方其他种族或性别,她都会这样说。

邀请网红参观锡克庙

当所有人都以为锡克教徒会因为以上的争议性和缺敏感度话题愤怒时,锡克教青年协会(YSA)却以选择以更和善的方式来解决问题。

该青协于9月28日在脸书上帖文指出,他们相信“行动胜于雄辩”,因此邀请这名网红到位于陶纳路(Towner Road)的中央锡克庙,古瓦拉锡克庙(Gurdwara)进行四小时的参观,让她能更了解锡克教徒社区和宗教信仰。

Sheena曾就此对《海峡时报》表示,她进行了一些反思,也同意有些人的观点, “尽管我的发言并非完全是种族主义的,但是我不够敏感,为锡克教徒社区带来很大的困扰……我决定接受锡克教徒青年协会的邀请,以学习更多” 。

Sheena参观锡克庙中,还在社区厨房中学习制作印度饼(chapati)。

在参观过程中,Sheena不仅了解该教文化和信仰,同时还在社区厨房中学习制作印度饼(chapati)。

青协:应理解和原谅

锡克教徒青协指出,网红在和他们接触时,曾分享了她的社区和在新加坡的成长经历,“她承认并不了解锡克教徒,而且也没有任何锡克教徒同学”。

鉴于网红对该教社群不了解,该青协指就其之前的言论进行抨击实在有欠公平。“我们都有自己的生活经验,让我们知晓自己对社区中其他人的了解程度。”

他们也指出,大多数人群都希望在犯错时,人们能够给予原谅和理解,并且伸出友谊之手。“更好的是,当我们犯错时,他人能够友善对待和告知,而不是情绪化的指责。”

他们也感谢网红能够抽空参与活动,并指Sheena也给予他们一些有利建议。“她觉得,很多人像她一样,希望能参观少数群体的礼拜场所,并且在交流和分享经验中学习。我们觉得这个建议能在明年实施。”
