Cameron Diaz And The bag of Chair mao

就因为她背着"为人民服务"的军用挎包在秘鲁旅游时被拍下,因此不得不为此道歉.
理由是对该挎包所蕴含的"潜在意义"会对某类人造成伤害或带来痛苦.
不过我相信为人民服务这句话本身并没有错.如果应为无法忘记某段历史而认定它是一种痛苦,再把这种痛苦固定于某种形式的话,这种人也许是该用这种痛苦去多考验他们.

Cameron Diaz sported a bag with the Maoist slogan “Serve the People” while sightseeing in Peru on Friday, not realizing the painful memories it would invoke. The famous political slogan was by Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong and “has particular relevance in Peru where the Maoist Shining Path insurgency almost brought Peru to edge of chaos in the 1980s and early 1990s.”

The Shrek star was touring the Inca ruins of Machu Picchu at the time with Sol Guy, an MTV Canada Host.

In a statement e-mailed to The Associated Press on sunday, Cameron said she’s sorry for the slogan’s “potentially hurtful nature” and wishes Peruvians “for their continued healing.”

Here’s what the email said: “I sincerely apologize to anyone I may have inadvertently offended. The bag was a purchase I made as a tourist in China and I did not realize the potentially hurtful nature of the slogan printed on it. I’m sorry for any people’s pain and suffering and it was certainly never my intention to reopen what I now know is a painful wound in this country’s history.”
