So its sunday, im going ahead and try to come here in times or which is where youre from, right . Thats. And this is an important customer, but it will say the countrys largest dental site. What was it likes . These are not the one of the challenges, the getting and not just on. And he said, he mean by that isnt about know, leaving for another time, smart enough for us to pay rent and food into the kitchen. Thats way too much. I was sick of because she was in gifts getting in trouble. Im just most of the stress and all that time. So in each of you, i ended up dying that lets go for when it was the laptop, the language however you and your mother passed away. I was 16. And what happened to uh, i ended up going with it doesnt say to a make except for 1000000 t a. Its a place where when comes and it wouldnt even doesnt have a place to go or scrubbing jeans i will collecting such so so that they can on that i get something for, you know, your rafa. And thats the, what was the transition like from, you know, being on that im tired of working that to be in office and doing what you do now. So uh, windows of the dump, say those us troops up. So even people are following me thats, thats the new companies that up for us, or they gave me some of the day before. So i know, and i, this is really and its, i think it was very popular, was going out and then the visiting the places and people didnt need to find the stop. This will be set up like we need to find that. You need to find that, okay, so they came down the phone to me. Im just trying to do some research. I to nanny came up with a project for them that i think thats sort of the transitions for me for the downstairs 715. Okay. Whats the this is the, how did working on it on site, but it says eyes here. Whenever the website you feel like you are popular, doing a place where people dont appreciate, you dont have a voice that nobody gets that much when we walk. So initially for me, it was like, uh, i mean, one way, im fixing a lot of social devices when, if im sick, nobody guess if i, if i have a good solid, nobody can this nobody to share what, what they have those stuff. Im going to divide video in the mornings and find them my desk. Yeah. So i was seeing them as the as the reload the and make sure you will find the good to see the hate because the country equals. So i wanted to talk to you via larry, youve done prior to somethings about extra additional cleanings and the police know, getting people who that had lost 3 friends. Our in our center dumpsite because of its like additional kidding. They was beaten after the missed on a phone. That was so my, there was, i was angry. So thats the way i think i started becoming moving into practice social issues on the not anything that we are the one they want to die or do you want to move in or not out dined or to bump into you when and theres also an Organization Called the kenya, which you work in and you deal with these projects and young people. Can you tell me that that what you do with them . Okay, so of course the Community Based organization that works with the kids from the age of 5 through 17, to ensure that theyre safe and easy, that they dont. And thats a society special devices. Hes coming to you to use class days, drama, class this point. See, we play games, the kids forget to be of the money screwed into find of a 100. 00 plus the new talents. Of course, seen someone is he does be more often than even any other opportunity. The going theory, you corresponded them, atari, social justice center, which aims at tactical forms of structural vine. And can you explain a bit about what made you want to start the organization . I was born in my body and the girl of the month, interest phase. The sick one biggest fly mean can now i love my, that is, you know, i was a have your titles and when i became an adult is when i could see now the violence. I think people in my community loved going through the cold. Lets see. The Police Brutality, the police came in, the law of clean water. So growing up in mother is like growing up in a village, but Everybody Knows everybody. So when something happens to one of us really seen it. So the killings any particular too much, it was just too much. So to challenge that we formed methodical shows us the sensor. And were there any person experiences that you live in missouri that made you want to start the organization . Yes, um. My own brother was killed by a police in to a 7 to void for selection violence in canada. And that with a lot of other young people that i am grown up, weve been killed. And this is not just my ariano, and this is a story of many young people in my day do a to have a friend, a cousin, a brother, a neighbor that was killed by police when youre a window outside the inventory. So you can adjust this thing. So can you tell me a bit about the why fi g day today . It is today receive cases from the community on the trends of it is that to be a lucky one, to bring justice to the Community Members mostly receive cases of Police Brutality of people who have been interested with not enough reason. I guess i lived in a bit violent, but we have a community engagement, like watching film, planting, trees, community cleanup, community have illustrations. And every time we meet the center, we have to sing because the sun, an energy that comes when we things together into just i just on to continue watching this class of seeking justice and dignity for our people. The. I wanted to ask you about the time in 2020, when you were a pretest against Police Brutality and you resisted arrest from 3 of Police Offices. And it was a huge reaction because the video of this happening went viral and lots of people. So read how was that experience to you . And were you surprised by the reaction that it . Yes, i was surprised that even when level i didnt know it was going to be that impossible. That i im a woman that was able to stand up for myself. Made the young man in my couldnt you see more emboldened to sign up for themselves . It made them feel more helpful. I also have to say that at that very moment, it was the pain of every month i have worked with in thinking just as for the sun, every case i have documented every Single Person i have seen lose that lives in my community. A gave me the strength to say that this was enough, and this feeling how much are still the so one gera dice, thank you so much for being here today. When we think about the issues that are facing young people, its interesting that 75 percent of the people in kenya under the age of 35. 00, but only 40 percent of youth at registered to vote in the recent elections. Why do you think it is that so few people are registered to vote here in kenya under the age of 35. I think it was a, a one uh form of existence from the people from the 8000000 tenants who did not come on towards i think they was saying that they did not want to be a part of this. They wanted a system that works for them. And on the other hand, i think one thing is important because its the only way were going to put someone who could walk for us. But i think it was very loud that they would so tired of this system of oppression. And what do you think this, how did you feel about the election and how did young people that, you know, speak about the election . Remember before left, so new. I mean, we were in a crisis of course, the 19 and of course, even the death im into uh, previously there one not even doing a lot of the people that they were just making that people saw followed because the, there was not a lot of coffee was people people not going to job so in that when it comes to people now being told to vote and they were like and on the same government didnt campbell it. Thats why are they getting now they dont respect the voices. They dont tell what they say, but the one task to do what they see and thats, thats how we feel like its what is not possible. It doesnt change anything. Do you also feel that sense of advocacy towards the system . I do because women would say, send the country, good independence with little change. Look at the community to where i come from. Its still the same for her to from before. So people are beginning to relate with, i mean, why do i even go towards it doesnt change my life in any way. How do you think of that change if you withdraw from the system is that exists now . How can you amplify the issues that matters . He mice, or i think we need another tentative system that sense as people at the very core of the issues we have trying to address how we need to bring about changes, organize ourselves as the youth and advocates with one voice as one girl about the issues that much i to us, i feel like we shouldnt take a box it and watch and complain and say this system doesnt work for us. These people are corrupted. And we actively organized against the system. Together. I know the both care about extrajudicial headings in kenya, around the world. They were conversations around Police Brutality, and thats at the hands of the police. Could you explain to me what it is like in kenya in regards to the extrajudicial killings . The americans typed in the hashtag blacklist, martha. I think it, it, it might the most in can. Because a, personally, ive looked 20 plus friends, most of them was killed by police and more justice. And initially this is this specific one of the den daughter. So if you imagine how many happens each end every day and my dad and keep that in, in, in, in the streets. So its quite a very, very big issue that hasnt been happening. And we havent been getting that solution. And wonder how would you explain it . Now, as im british colony, when we go to independence, the Police Service that were serving, the Colonial Government did not change when its done looking as i became president. Ok now he continued with the same police force that the Colonial Government was using and therefore pressing on, thats the practices of trauma that would cost up on the people to present the cabinets, leaving and in for most instruments, when judge floyd was killed by 10 year old yes and miles killed in all communities. And when we planned the protest those this last time i saw kenyas soul invested in calculating methods of exciting to show things in the country. Usually we will hold our demos, the name, foremost settlements. I think judge slater hills can connect said a fast struggle in the us and us from without hand came out in the large numbers to say, we demand an interests any additional candidates. So Police Offices of justified 72 percent of the kennings of happened alleging that they were result of anti crime operations. And i wanted to ask within the communities, is that a slight tension that just some people maybe not have sympathy when somebody who was committing a crime dies at the hands of the police and how do you respond to that . Yes, that happens. But i think its um, we live in a country that prides itself in upholding visual noval. What do we have . Well, lets say is, if someone has been found doing something wrong, can we have a little before or can we have them arrested and taken to court and prosecuted instead of the police this id to be the judge and the judy and theyve victor shawna because this is what happens most of the time. And this is a crime not just in can no, but everyone else. I do not think police have a right to take away anybodys life when they is a law that can be followed. For me, the Biggest Issue has been the quality. They are not treating people the same. Like we have been having news like a, a southern pass. So lets go to a took mindful day for the government, the se in these governors on news, but then not being killed. Why is it that in where we leave and then the someone on just the phone . It was my dad, a cleaning on this, the cleaning all according to the, the little so the, we need to, we need to put it clear that it needs to be an, an important thing that we feel like its not if its not dry and equally, im trying to dash, uh bill is the case of calls in being in this like some people in government and stolen dealings made so many tickets. They fits, of course with names and in the country. And during this period, there was also um, a lot of property in the communities, and actually the police did not as waste their coven dns despite having been a protest. It is the people protesting against this. Go with the union, thats what actually i raced it. So what that shes saying is theres a distinction between people who are ceiling to survive. And people who are stealing from the people. Because then government solo from the poor in that particular incent which led them to lead groups. When you say that youre fighting for justice, what does justice look like . Fear . So for me, justice means uh this, this so consistent like people shifted. Same uh they said this list is like following the little when the boys came with the police, the one to remember that 600 additional kidding to you are not given a find me to be the by the police to conduct a fundraising. So as can get funds to do the body image, why dont you have in good justice because that, thats almost game that need strong to, you know, given a, find me so for this, nor does it there. So if i, if i guess is that people shouldnt be treated equally. Thats what does this mean . So what about you . Wonder at what is justice look like to you . And when youre fighting for that, what is it that youre thinking about . My brother was killed by police. Justice ideally would look like me guessing left my brother. But that is not possible. So injustice would look like preventing people from losing their loved ones. Still anything that would make sense for me. So the reason we, im fighting that physically needs to solve so can, is do not have to move through unnecessary, paid close by the bullet. So has that ever been a time that you have seen just as an action in kenya with regard to, you know, police kennings. If there was a case to offer the name of the office on monday station for over a company station who killed someone in the Police Station who drowned them in a drum full of water. And as the inmates could see that. And when we documented this case together with International Justice mission, we took it to court and we attended Court Sessions we had and to show a certain justice for my team call me and that enlightment when he was sentenced to life imprisonment. And that was the 1st day i saw a justice in action in this country. And i want to move the conversation a little bit and says, all the areas i know you care about. I want to specifically also talk to you guys about music. It feels like it is really a lifeline view. So for me, music is life. Uh, i feel like uh, the way the way people have a power like the police have the gun and they feed ball for me. Theyve done so for me its in buffalo and they have music because its part of my life. Last year we had the case of very beginning to end or where police was looking for a site and then the southern thief. Uh, when did i mean he, he went to his friends on some of the defense or not if so the police ended up getting everybody under the thats all. It was all about stuff. Its like youre just getting, we need coincides to the Community Just to send them a that is social Justice Centers and all that. And we be good just is to do they follow the ad and weve got new new police. And are there any other names of people or any other examples of cultural or music be you have found to be powerful or inspiring and can you listen to me . I see mine and the song, mississippi, and good them about Police Brutality, the full gus that identify and became a big issue for the black people over there. They went to a protest singing that song made them feel full possible. And nina, hassle of felt like headlight slide more relevance we should see to advance the struggle of last people. What youre saying about them is still very rel of lunch today in the us. And also we know communities in countries back home and i wanted to ask social media. Its done a lot in terms of sharing messages to do with activities. And how important do you think that has been for you and can you more generally in terms of im to find messages like the ones that you care about . Most. Mostly ive been using social media as well as sort of like a proof. And whenever you have so, so maybe its easier to even tell people like this, these are part of the things that they have done. So indeed up this a time, she had issues with the police when they wanted to make others. How may force new york we also that because of the social media. So this means that when we did send, it would be to move off. And so many people are inspired by high just because of this story. And this is because of the social media. It has even happened both even industry to someone is being that if theyve done this using especially Difficult People that he has to be noticed and then he hasnt done anything. So i have said that social media have played a very, very big role in terms of documenting issues. One very easy use youtube to teach that kind of alternative history. And i wanted, if you could speak to me a little bit about why youve done that, i love history. I think history is very liberating. When you get to see me know and understand. I think present the generation is quite disconnected with our very clearly as history of the past. For example, my communities, my, my home in my diary has been around for a 100 years. Its been a century of survival and resistance since 1920 to my battery has been existing. Think its the oldest, get to him can. So weve had president s from 91063 who have done something to change the faith of the people of my di. But they did not, this is we have structural violence comes in that the people who continue to be neglected and continue to be exposed to system. They make violence of social injustice this. So when we understand as young people where we are coming from, it will be very easy to, to create the kind of future we want to know for childrens children and similar needs. As i know you can relax about your community. And i want to hear from you directly. What is it that youre proud of in terms of where you are from, and what your identity is . So uh, of course im proud of myself if cit, from, from where ive come from and where i am. Im a needs to to both of our 1010000 kids have identified the new talents among the successful stories that they have is that about 50 young guys do not end up being and dropping off of school. I li, pregnancies, but we have monday to get them out of such issue so. So most of a proud to fall of the defies that ive gone through in ensuring that the things that right this sounds that theyve done and all that as a final notes. What is it, despite all of the issues that you have seen that makes you get up every morning . So 5 for a better day. Why is it that you can see needs to do what youre doing . Well, its just me going is knowing that im on the right 5 and im doing my little thing towards contributing to the betterment of society. Like one guy mother. I said to everybody around there was a little thing towards making the middle place. So that is my initial thing and im happy doing it. There is a now lets wake up every morning to ensure that what im being the, im not even paid or anything is just because i need to see a good future. I need to see a bit and or i need to see a bit of canyon. I need people to not leave the life that i have believed. So thats a elizabeth up every morning for me to tell kids which, which if im in the and also for the future, can the 30 states control information. How does the narrative in full public opinion, how is this as intended . Listen, we flaming the story. The listening post, i think the media, you dont cover the news. We covered the way the news is covered. Its a top destination for travelers seeking them by the power dice experience. But the i did a archipelago of fiji is also on the front line of global rising water levels and unforgiving storms of triggered some of the was 1st government lines relocation as a result of climate change. People empower us, want fiji. The last resort on a jersey to win the news breaks. The story of this village is the same as many of us spread across the Eastern Front line. No electricity, no running water. When people need to be heard. And the story needs to be told this children are unable to go outside inside is extreme. You hook with exclusive interviews, an in depth reports lowes. People expect to be wiped out all together by now. Ill just see right. Has teams on the ground to bring you more Award Winning document trees and live nice the of the exercise plumbing it up. Lets go raleigh, northwest dentist on at least 44 people are killed.
