- 7:39Speaker 2: So will you be that few? I've put a.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Call out for believers to join us inside of the

- 7:57Speaker 1: an opportunity to share testimonies, your testimon around a scripture.
- 8:04Speaker 1: You share your testimony or your lesson. If you want
- 8:06Speaker 1: to teach a lesson, teach a lesson, then you could.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Through a press starter and an affirmation, you get an
- 8:11Speaker 1: opportunity to impact lives. You get an opportunity to pour
- 8:14Speaker 1: into someone else something that you have experienced, something that
- 8:19Speaker 1: you know for yourself that worked for you, that could
- 8:22Speaker 1: possibly help someone else get through whatever they may be
- 8:24Speaker 1: going through. You may think it's little. You may think
- 8:28Speaker 1: it's small, you may think it's minute. You may think
- 8:30Speaker 1: that it does not matter. But there may be someone
- 8:34Speaker 1: that may be going through and experiencing the same thing
- 8:37Speaker 1: to experience, and because you made it through, because you
- 8:41Speaker 1: shared your testimony, they're able to come through and come
- 8:44Speaker 1: out of whatever it is that they're going through. I
- 8:46Speaker 1: give a shout out to those amazing eighteen queens that
- 8:51Speaker 1: has already signed it to be a part of this
- 8:55Speaker 1: amazing book. Only third teen dollars and thirty three cent y'all,

- 9:13Speaker 1: I see my post is here, so y'all, I can
- 9:17Speaker 1: move on not the way, but again, y'all, take this opportunity,
- 9:23Speaker 1: take this opportunity to truly understand that you have a purpose,
- 9:27Speaker 1: that you didn't get dropped out of the sky, that
- 9:30Speaker 1: you were strategically placed here to make a difference, to
- 9:34Speaker 1: do something to impact this world and whatever gifts and
- 9:39Speaker 1: talents that's been placed on the inside of you, because
- 9:42Speaker 1: we all have gifts and talents and we're all supposed
- 9:44Speaker 1: to be making a difference in some way. So you

- 9:51Speaker 1: drives you, that thing that can make an impact not
- 9:55Speaker 1: just in your life, because the word says, don't just
- 9:59Speaker 1: look on your own things, but also look on the.

- 10:33Speaker 4: Greetings, welcome, blessings, and abundance. It's a wonderful way to
- 10:40Speaker 4: open up. I want to thank the illustrious Queen visionary
- 10:46Speaker 4: like no other, sister Queen Angela, for just being able
- 10:50Speaker 4: to keep everybody in the space of upliftment, of love,
- 10:54Speaker 4: of joy, of peace, of happiness, recognizing how the creative
- 10:58Speaker 4: places each and everyone one of us in this space,
- 11:01Speaker 4: this planet, but specifically in that spiritually grounded space, so
- 11:08Speaker 4: that we can really bring truth to power, live our destiny,
- 11:14Speaker 4: fulfill the presence of the most high creator. I love.
- 11:19Speaker 4: I think we might have to do that more often
- 11:21Speaker 4: because I like how that starts before we just get
- 11:24Speaker 4: into A speaks building a new legacy, and I'm very
- 11:27Speaker 4: grateful for the opportunity those that are not as familiar.
- 11:32Speaker 4: This is an opportunity for us to really gather and
- 11:36Speaker 4: share some words of strength, words of power, words of brace,
- 11:43Speaker 4: and to be able to discuss things from an interdisciplinary space,
- 11:49Speaker 4: things that are going to fuse culture, healing, art, technology,
- 11:54Speaker 4: spirituality for life, inspiration, freedom and education the short version
- 12:00Speaker 4: for life. And it also gives us an opportunity to
- 12:03Speaker 4: recognize the significance of these particular times, these particular days today.
- 12:10Speaker 4: Even hearing Sister Queen Angelus speak of everyone remembering the
- 12:15Speaker 4: importance of each and every one of our purposes, some
- 12:20Speaker 4: people will fear us talk about live a purpose each
- 12:23Speaker 4: and every day so that you can truly live in
- 12:26Speaker 4: the way that the Creator has blessed and anointed and
- 12:30Speaker 4: guided you. Right, And just hearing the last portions of
- 12:36Speaker 4: what Sister Angela was sharing just really brings that into
- 12:41Speaker 4: its full fruition, and for that I'm very grateful. So
- 12:45Speaker 4: tonight part of why this particular day is so significant
- 12:50Speaker 4: to many of us in this hemisphere and the Blobe.
- 12:56Speaker 4: And always ask persons what is July thirty first to
- 12:59Speaker 4: you when we come to the close of the month
- 13:02Speaker 4: of July. There's so many different observances. There's national observances
- 13:06Speaker 4: that we can list over and over again, there's weekly
- 13:10Speaker 4: observances to the month of July. I will focus on
- 13:13Speaker 4: the space where customarily dwell, althoughne traversing and doing different
- 13:19Speaker 4: work in different parts of the Caribbean as we speak
- 13:22Speaker 4: currently in Barbados and also here in support of activities
- 13:27Speaker 4: that are happening in Trinidad and Tobago and Grenada and Jamaica.
- 13:31Speaker 4: And I think people will catch on this is a
- 13:33Speaker 4: time of emancipation. August first marks the emancipation of formally
- 13:41Speaker 4: enslaved Africans, at least on paper, from British colonization. This
- 13:47Speaker 4: is also the time where throughout the region, and as
- 13:51Speaker 4: we speak, there's just been closing in the convenient of
- 13:55Speaker 4: the CARA com the Caribbean Community Heads of State gathering
- 13:58Speaker 4: that was postponed from early in July because of the
- 14:03Speaker 4: devastation that reached Havoc in the Korean region from Hurricane Barrel.
- 14:09Speaker 4: Cap five, even the Cap four levels created a certain
- 14:13Speaker 4: devastation that persons are still really back from. So Caarracan
- 14:17Speaker 4: has just being their annual has a state summit in Grenada,
- 14:27Speaker 4: and so we definitely want to send out our well
- 14:29Speaker 4: wishes to our sisters and brothers that are still in
- 14:33Speaker 4: disaster relief recovery mode in spaces like Grenada and Carrie Coup,
- 14:40Speaker 4: their neighboring island in Saint Vincent Grenadine's and Tete Martinique,
- 14:47Speaker 4: Union Island, as well as our sisters and brothers impacted
- 14:51Speaker 4: in Jamaica as well as coastal areas and Barbados and
- 14:56Speaker 4: other parts of the Caribbean. And it literally went up
- 15:00Speaker 4: into various impacting spaces in Central America, medical and even
- 15:06Speaker 4: the southern parts of the forty eight contiguous in Texas
- 15:10Speaker 4: and then kind of spread through and just kept creating happen.
- 15:13Speaker 4: And we know that that's connected to climate change. So
- 15:16Speaker 4: we'll speak to some of that. But I like to
- 15:18Speaker 4: come forward into an observance that many people tend to
- 15:23Speaker 4: overlook because we spend so much time looking at certain
- 15:28Speaker 4: things that keep us distracted away from our places of
- 15:31Speaker 4: power or places of strength. The role of our mothers,
- 15:36Speaker 4: our grandmothers, our daughters, our sisters, our aunties, our great grandmothers,
- 15:42Speaker 4: our great great grandmothers, and the legacies that they've created.
- 15:47Speaker 4: And July thirty first also marks an anniversary, a significant
- 15:52Speaker 4: anniversary of the formation of the Pan African Women's Organization.
- 15:58Speaker 4: So I'd like people to just catch that for a second.
- 16:03Speaker 4: This is an opportunity to really gather some clarity on
- 16:10Speaker 4: how we speak of speaks and building a new legacy.
- 16:15Speaker 4: And I'd like the person to just be on the
- 16:17Speaker 4: same frame when we talk about Pan African Women's Day,
- 16:23Speaker 4: because sometimes we forget and we look at it as
- 16:28Speaker 4: if it's just something that is very recent, very new.
- 16:32Speaker 4: You know, it's not in recent and it's not necessarily new.
- 16:39Speaker 4: As a matter of fact, before the respective organization of
- 16:46Speaker 4: African Unity what is now the African Union was formed.
- 16:55Speaker 4: I think it's really important for our sisters and brothers
- 16:58Speaker 4: to just know that these are some of the things
- 17:00Speaker 4: that took place before twenty to twenty four. These are
- 17:05Speaker 4: things that were put in formation and put in a
- 17:08Speaker 4: very deep line of engagement from nineteen fifty seven to
- 17:13Speaker 4: be exact, where women gathered and supported one another, strengthened
- 17:20Speaker 4: one another in the marketplace, in our places of worship
- 17:24Speaker 4: and our places of learning and our places of recreation.
- 17:30Speaker 4: We engaged. It wasn't just warfare, and it wasn't just uprisings,
- 17:35Speaker 4: even though sometimes that's what it did require, certain protests
- 17:38Speaker 4: and sometimes the outcomes were not as peaceful, however, lack
- 17:43Speaker 4: of persons to disreflect that July thirty one, Mars and
- 17:49Speaker 4: anniversary of one of the first African collectives in regard
- 17:59Speaker 4: to pulling when and together as an organization that significantly
- 18:04Speaker 4: contributed to the struggle of liberation from colonialism, inclusive of
- 18:10Speaker 4: the elimination of a part type a person's the separation
- 18:14Speaker 4: separate segregation that we familiarized with only design in South Africa.
- 18:21Speaker 4: But it's a system, it's a policy that is tied
- 18:25Speaker 4: to imperialism, tied to colonization, and it's important to persons.
- 18:29Speaker 4: It's a part take, so we understand it's a part
- 18:33Speaker 4: separates on people by race, class, and I think it's
- 18:40Speaker 4: really important as well as gender and equities. These are
- 18:42Speaker 4: things that were part of what the Power and African
- 18:46Speaker 4: Women's Organization was central to working towards eradicated eradicating discrimination, justice,
- 18:55Speaker 4: gender and equities. We tend to use the term gender inequities,
- 18:59Speaker 4: you know, but anything that was violating the rights the
- 19:04Speaker 4: human rights, living rights, productive rights, the spiritual rights, religious
- 19:10Speaker 4: rights of women. And again, when you have struck with women,
- 19:16Speaker 4: you have struck a rock. Then say that clearly, when
- 19:21Speaker 4: you have struck a woman, you have struck from rock.
- 19:25Speaker 4: Because we're very rounded. Don't get twisted because some of
- 19:28Speaker 4: our sisters may seem a little brazzled. That's part of
- 19:33Speaker 4: the conditioning and part of the intentionality of keeping our
- 19:37Speaker 4: women off our center and keeping our women away from
- 19:41Speaker 4: our grounding, keeping our women unstable, and that's not the norm.
- 19:48Speaker 4: With the Pan African Women's Organization. There were a number
- 19:52Speaker 4: of formal establishments of putting it together from nineteen fifty seven,
- 19:57Speaker 4: the year before the formation of the Organization of African Unity,
- 20:01Speaker 4: that brought together revolutionaries persons that were moving in the
- 20:05Speaker 4: direction of formal leadership, inclusive of great ones like the
- 20:10Speaker 4: honorable doctor Kami and Kruma, the first President of the
- 20:14Speaker 4: Independent Republic of Nana, and others lasting doctor Julius Nieri,
- 20:21Speaker 4: and there's many others that we can speak to, but
- 20:24Speaker 4: for today, I'd like to focus on some of the
- 20:27Speaker 4: things that were established in Dari Salam and Tanzania between
- 20:31Speaker 4: nineteen fifty seven and really formalized in nineteen sixty two,
- 20:38Speaker 4: with a lot of things taking place between those years
- 20:43Speaker 4: to really strengthen some of the mission of power Pan
- 20:47Speaker 4: African Women's Organization, to really ensure that women's concerns are issues,
- 20:54Speaker 4: our priorities, our recommendations were fully integrated into the African
- 21:03Speaker 4: Liberation agenda, and again keeping in mind that once women
- 21:09Speaker 4: participate equitably, effectively and completely in any level of whether
- 21:19Speaker 4: it's social, economic, political, and cultural life of continent, the
- 21:24Speaker 4: intention is that it makes this nation strong. You can
- 21:27Speaker 4: tell the strength of the nation by the strength of
- 21:30Speaker 4: the women, because the women nurture, the women give birth
- 21:33Speaker 4: to the children, they care for the children and the families.
- 21:36Speaker 4: They work alongside with our men. It is not we're
- 21:41Speaker 4: not speaking of a powl that was a feminist, anti
- 21:45Speaker 4: male or anti masculine entity. There was a confusion and
- 21:50Speaker 4: harmony in how many of the women that brought this
- 21:55Speaker 4: organization into fruition brought it together. Now we're seeing the
- 22:01Speaker 4: outcomes of that from what established as the Organization of
- 22:05Speaker 4: African Unity as well as what established into the African
- 22:11Speaker 4: Union and other African unions ECOSOFTSEEITO Commission, etc. Important that
- 22:19Speaker 4: we recognize and remember that. So people tend to look
- 22:23Speaker 4: at July thirty first. You hear some people speak of
- 22:26Speaker 4: it as Pan African Women's Day. Sometimes you'll hear African
- 22:30Speaker 4: Women's Day. And it's very important to know that its
- 22:34Speaker 4: core for the thirty first of July was rounded on
- 22:38Speaker 4: not just African Women's Day, but Pan African Women's Day,
- 22:41Speaker 4: bringing all African women from all corners of the earth
- 22:46Speaker 4: working together. This was not only a continental effort. It
- 22:50Speaker 4: was to bring women of African ancestry ascent descent to
- 22:55Speaker 4: some legacy working together and bringing our culture, heritage, educational, spiritual, economic, political,
- 23:06Speaker 4: social values, traditions, institutions on high. It's also very important
- 23:13Speaker 4: that persons recognize that there are various documents that you
- 23:17Speaker 4: can give access to by going to the African Union's website,
- 23:21Speaker 4: specifically au dot I int forward slash in. If you
- 23:25Speaker 4: just look up the au dot org, that may get
- 23:29Speaker 4: you a little bit of confusion, but if you just
- 23:32Speaker 4: google African Union, Powell paw Oh, you'll be able to
- 23:38Speaker 4: find some of that information very easily, very succinctly. I
- 23:44Speaker 4: also think it's important for persons to recognize that when
- 23:47Speaker 4: we speak of gender equality, there's no closure, and now
- 23:54Speaker 4: we speak of equity because the equality is not necessarily
- 23:59Speaker 4: twenty percent reappropriate. But everyone needs to start at their
- 24:03Speaker 4: places of strength and engagement and at the same time
- 24:06Speaker 4: be able.
- 24:06Speaker 2: To move forward.
- 24:10Speaker 4: To the best of their ability given the circumstances, the gifts,
- 24:15Speaker 4: the talents, the expertise that they have. So this is
- 24:18Speaker 4: also about women's empowerment and there are several various components
- 24:26Speaker 4: that are linked to how our sisters and brothers highlight
- 24:31Speaker 4: some of the efforts when it comes to Pan African
- 24:37Speaker 4: women today. So I want to make sure that I
- 24:40Speaker 4: highlight two particular points. It's a time where we celebrate
- 24:45Speaker 4: the achievements and the advocacy the contributions of women, and
- 24:52Speaker 4: especially a great time from when we deal with advocacy
- 24:56Speaker 4: for equity, gender equity and in all spaces where African
- 25:01Speaker 4: women reside, live, work and contribute. It is also an
- 25:07Speaker 4: opportunity for persons to really move in a forward direction
- 25:13Speaker 4: so that there is a national, regional, global opportunity to
- 25:21Speaker 4: really affirm the importance the significant strengths of African women
- 25:29Speaker 4: in the evolution of a Pan African identity for the
- 25:32Speaker 4: purposes of those persons that may not be as familiar
- 25:35Speaker 4: with pan Africanism out humble to the more simplistic definition
- 25:42Speaker 4: of all African right, but more specifically speaking from a
- 25:47Speaker 4: space of the work of the honorable doctor Kwamei and
- 25:51Speaker 4: Kruma as presented within the All African People's Revolutionary Party
- 25:55Speaker 4: and ultimately within the formation of the All African Women's
- 25:59Speaker 4: Revolutionary Union. Pan Africanism is in a simplistic form to
- 26:04Speaker 4: find is the total liberation and unification of Africa under
- 26:10Speaker 4: a scientifically socialist government. Keep in mind that this was
- 26:14Speaker 4: pro established in the fifties, sixties, in the twentieth century,
- 26:19Speaker 4: and because of all of the technology, all of the
- 26:24Speaker 4: social constructs that have changed and shifted moving in the
- 26:27Speaker 4: twenty first century, this is a time where where people
- 26:30Speaker 4: speak of pan Africanism, we're speaking of that principle, my
- 26:35Speaker 4: audical unity, utilizing what people refer to as scientific socialism
- 26:40Speaker 4: in some contexts, but some people will just speak of
- 26:43Speaker 4: it as the technologies that support a socialist structure. That
- 26:50Speaker 4: is not to say that we are going to ignore
- 26:55Speaker 4: the challenges the realities that come with living in a
- 27:00Speaker 4: very capitalist imperial society, and we see where that has gotten.
- 27:05Speaker 4: It is not to say that we will forget our
- 27:09Speaker 4: sisters and brothers because we see what that's gotten to.
- 27:13Speaker 4: And so this is an opportunity for persons to really
- 27:16Speaker 4: utilize this day and this season to share values, share objectives,
- 27:22Speaker 4: look at visions for the future that facilitate our awareness,
- 27:28Speaker 4: our knowledge base, and our wise council around the key
- 27:35Speaker 4: achievements and contributions that are linked to Africa being included
- 27:43Speaker 4: and sustain in all these various development agendas that are
- 27:48Speaker 4: anchored in, whether it's division in the African Union, whether
- 27:51Speaker 4: it's division of care or com whether it's division of
- 27:55Speaker 4: United Nations, whether it's divisions of the people who live, work, worship,
- 28:03Speaker 4: breathe and are surviving and working towards thriving in the
- 28:09Speaker 4: global communities. So we can have it integrated a very prosperous,
- 28:14Speaker 4: a very harmonious, less toxic, more lessed, peaceful Africa. And
- 28:24Speaker 4: when we say Africa, we're speaking of the twelve million
- 28:27Speaker 4: square miles of the continent and everywhere in the world
- 28:31Speaker 4: where Africans are, which makes it a global for fair Essentially,
- 28:36Speaker 4: when we speak of Pan African Women's Day, which is
- 28:40Speaker 4: observed July thirty first, this is an opportunity for us
- 28:44Speaker 4: to talk about various programs of action that are highlighted.
- 28:49Speaker 4: This is an opportunity for persons to look at the
- 28:53Speaker 4: fact that some persons didn't even realize that the African
- 28:58Speaker 4: Union formed related a.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Report.
- 29:03Speaker 4: It was an African Women's Decade Report from twenty ten
- 29:07Speaker 4: to twenty twenty. And of course, with everything being in
- 29:10Speaker 4: global chaos with C nineteen in twenty twenty, many persons
- 29:14Speaker 4: may have lost their awareness their understanding of that. But
- 29:18Speaker 4: I think it's really important for persons to just get
- 29:21Speaker 4: an idea of what were some of the reports, what
- 29:24Speaker 4: were some of the key determinants in that particular report,
- 29:29Speaker 4: and it spoke definitely truth for power in regard to
- 29:34Speaker 4: looking at how Pan African Women's Day was used as
- 29:40Speaker 4: a foundation, cornerstone piece for bringing out several different realities
- 29:47Speaker 4: of what's been happening in our communities. And I'm going
- 29:50Speaker 4: to just share just the commitment that various member states
- 29:56Speaker 4: within the African Union, which brings together heads of state
- 30:00Speaker 4: of the independent nations in the African continent. And again
- 30:04Speaker 4: keeping in mind that we will speak very briefly to
- 30:07Speaker 4: this sixth region diaspora piece that incorporates people of African
- 30:13Speaker 4: ancestry born and residing outside of the continent. Will highlight
- 30:18Speaker 4: that because I'm sure most of us may not speak
- 30:20Speaker 4: too much on that, but I like to highlight these
- 30:24Speaker 4: particular thematic areas that were highlighted in part of this report.
- 30:29Speaker 4: Finding poverty and promoting economic empowerment of women in entrepreneurship.
- 30:34Speaker 4: That's just sound familiar. Agriculture and food security. If we
- 30:40Speaker 4: cannot feed ourselves, all of these conversations will be silent.
- 30:47Speaker 4: Three Women's health, maternal mortality and HIV and AIDS, and
- 30:53Speaker 4: of course we know that that has expanded into sdis
- 30:56Speaker 4: as well, other sdis as well, but again not healthy.
- 31:00Speaker 4: We do not have wellness and strength, and the work
- 31:03Speaker 4: that we're engaged in, this becomes another mute, futile, useless
- 31:11Speaker 4: discussion because there won't be anyone alive to be able
- 31:14Speaker 4: to even have some of these conversations. For education, science
- 31:20Speaker 4: and technology, the other EESC five. Environment and climate change,
- 31:28Speaker 4: and we've already seen, we are seeing. We are living
- 31:33Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four present now as we're all sitting
- 31:36Speaker 4: where we are, whether we're suffering and struggling with the
- 31:41Speaker 4: fires that are taking over the northwestern portion of the
- 31:46Speaker 4: forty eight contiguous US, whether we are taking over some
- 31:50Speaker 4: of the contexts and struggles that are happening in these
- 31:56Speaker 4: hurricane chrone spaces where there's an act actual season, not
- 32:01Speaker 4: call autumn, spring, winter, or summer, the call hurricane season.
- 32:06Speaker 4: So this whole climate change reality is really important. Why
- 32:10Speaker 4: are certain glaciers melting? Why is it so excessive? And
- 32:15Speaker 4: tots what does it mean when we say stay alive
- 32:19Speaker 4: one point five? And what does it mean when people
- 32:22Speaker 4: talk about next zero? So those are some of the
- 32:25Speaker 4: things that are involved in that environment climate change piece.
- 32:29Speaker 4: And then number six piece and security and violence against women.
- 32:35Speaker 4: And I'll pause there because we are having an increase
- 32:41Speaker 4: in the number of women and girls that are missing,
- 32:47Speaker 4: that are found murdered, that are being exposed to forms
- 32:55Speaker 4: of human trafficking that are parallel to the same enslavement.
- 33:01Speaker 4: We're now working on reparatory justice for seven governance and
- 33:09Speaker 4: legal protection, and that brings in a whole other area
- 33:12Speaker 4: of jurisprudence in terms of how the legal system actually
- 33:15Speaker 4: protects or doesn't protect our women and girls. And we
- 33:20Speaker 4: can speak to things that are quite recent. You know,
- 33:23Speaker 4: people are speaking of justice for Sonya in the forty
- 33:27Speaker 4: eight contiguous US. When a woman can call the police
- 33:31Speaker 4: because she's concerned and feels that there's an intruder near
- 33:35Speaker 4: her property, and it shifts to her being murdered by
- 33:39Speaker 4: police officers. That's already a reality, and it's not the
- 33:45Speaker 4: only reality. But we need to look at these things
- 33:49Speaker 4: when we talk about governance and legal protection and aren't
- 33:54Speaker 4: these officers of peace or officers of war. Eight Finance
- 34:01Speaker 4: and gender budgets. I think it's important that persons recognize
- 34:05Speaker 4: that we can speak about what's important to help our women,
- 34:11Speaker 4: in this case African women, to ascend, to restore equity,
- 34:16Speaker 4: to be empowered, to have certain opportunities in education, in
- 34:23Speaker 4: the places of work, labor opportunities, training, etc. However, if
- 34:30Speaker 4: there's no resources to train them, and there's no resources
- 34:34Speaker 4: to really implement programs and initiatives that are institutionalized and
- 34:41Speaker 4: are long term, so that area of finance and gender
- 34:46Speaker 4: budgets is critical. Nine Women in decision making positions. Again,
- 34:52Speaker 4: having our women in positions of authority, power, leadership and
- 34:57Speaker 4: with the requisite skills, credentials, certifications, and seasoned experience. And
- 35:06Speaker 4: I'm going to say that last part again, seasoned experience
- 35:09Speaker 4: not everybody's going to have a college degree. However, they're
- 35:15Speaker 4: going to bring their skills, silence, and expertise are excellence
- 35:19Speaker 4: to the table so that they can be participatory in
- 35:23Speaker 4: decision making. And one thing is not to just put
- 35:27Speaker 4: a woman in places of power and authority just because
- 35:30Speaker 4: of her gender. You need to make sure that she's prepared,
- 35:34Speaker 4: she's supported, and that she's authentically doing all within her
- 35:40Speaker 4: power to the greatest and highest good. And the ten
- 35:47Speaker 4: point is mentoring youth men and women. Make sure that
- 35:52Speaker 4: I highlight what it says mentoring youth men and women
- 35:57Speaker 4: to be champions gender equality and women's empowerment. I think
- 36:03Speaker 4: it's really important. So when persons, you know, hear me
- 36:06Speaker 4: speak about these different things, and sometimes I do overlook,
- 36:13Speaker 4: there's multiple things that are happening. And I want to
- 36:15Speaker 4: give thanks to other members of our Season two the
- 36:21Speaker 4: Crew podcasts, other hosts that are here with us, you know,
- 36:25Speaker 4: special shout out to Sister Queen, Sette Johnson, to Latanya
- 36:30Speaker 4: Little John and treat Grinball. I'm like, hey, I'm learning,
- 36:34Speaker 4: I'm getting I'm getting I'm getting clarity, and I want
- 36:38Speaker 4: to thank you all for joining and tuning in because again,
- 36:42Speaker 4: there may be conversations that you may wish to share
- 36:45Speaker 4: around how you see pan African moments there, What are
- 36:47Speaker 4: the things that highlight our ascension? What are the things
- 36:53Speaker 4: that you see will really help to empower our women
- 36:56Speaker 4: and to have help our women to be comfortable enough?
- 37:00Speaker 4: It's spirited enough and respectful with one another, caring for
- 37:05Speaker 4: one another, supporting one another. So I want to give
- 37:07Speaker 4: things with those of you that are able to share
- 37:11Speaker 4: and support in this context. And I've placed this particular
- 37:17Speaker 4: link so that persons can read the actual report that
- 37:21Speaker 4: I was sharing from in regard to the African Women's Report.
- 37:25Speaker 4: This is coming from part of the executive summary, but
- 37:27Speaker 4: this is the entire report that you can actually see
- 37:31Speaker 4: some of the various actions, some of the commitments, and
- 37:37Speaker 4: the way in which there were techniques and strategies to prioritize,
- 37:41Speaker 4: how to conceptualize these different instruments, you know, how do
- 37:44Speaker 4: you become responsive, how do you establish a budget, how
- 37:48Speaker 4: do you get your respective country to make sure that
- 37:51Speaker 4: these are the types of activities, programs and efforts that
- 37:55Speaker 4: are brought forth, and how do you make sure that
- 37:59Speaker 4: those key determinants in our respective societies are properly supported,
- 38:07Speaker 4: properly advocated for you know, because advocacy is important. It's
- 38:11Speaker 4: so as coordination, so it's training, so it's management right
- 38:16Speaker 4: and of course monitoring what is taking place. It's one
- 38:20Speaker 4: thing for people to say that they're part of a
- 38:22Speaker 4: particular activity program or guideline, but we need to also
- 38:27Speaker 4: recognize what is meant by gender responsibilnits. So I want
- 38:31Speaker 4: to just share that part of the theme again for
- 38:35Speaker 4: this decade that people probably didn't know about that was
- 38:38Speaker 4: from twenty ten to twenty twenty was approaches to gender
- 38:44Speaker 4: equality and women's empowerment and how to recognize the need
- 38:49Speaker 4: to engage a majority of women who are in rural
- 38:54Speaker 4: as well as urban rassroots communities. So again, it cannot
- 38:58Speaker 4: only be the elite, cannot only be the persons that
- 39:01Speaker 4: are in the city with the opportunities have already broken
- 39:05Speaker 4: the glass ceiling and needs to go across a very wide, diverse, intergenerational, intracultural,
- 39:12Speaker 4: trans cultural space to really help all women be able
- 39:18Speaker 4: to navigate moving things forward. And I want to highlight
- 39:22Speaker 4: another protocol that was highlighted in this report, and it's
- 39:26Speaker 4: the Protocol to the African Charter on human and people's rights,
- 39:30Speaker 4: on the rights of women in Africa. And I'm going
- 39:35Speaker 4: to pause for a second because i want persons to
- 39:37Speaker 4: reflect on what you may know about Africa, what you
- 39:40Speaker 4: have heard about Africa, what you may see.
- 39:43Speaker 2: In the media about Africa.
- 39:45Speaker 4: And I encourage those that have not visited the continent
- 39:49Speaker 4: and put their own foot, their own eyes in that
- 39:53Speaker 4: space any part of the twelve million square prons with
- 39:57Speaker 4: the African continent, inclusive of Medica, inclusive of Evacuatorial Guinea,
- 40:03Speaker 4: clusive of Martians, and say shows those little islands that
- 40:08Speaker 4: sit off side that people tend to forget about. Some
- 40:12Speaker 4: of us have been to dozens of countries and then
- 40:15Speaker 4: the case of myself is more than three dozen now.
- 40:19Speaker 4: And the intention is to be able to not only
- 40:22Speaker 4: touch and pass through, you know, a day here and
- 40:25Speaker 4: do a tourist visit, but to actually go and immerse
- 40:28Speaker 4: ourselves into the culture, the traditions, the institutions, the space,
- 40:36Speaker 4: and of course with all safety protocols in place, it's
- 40:41Speaker 4: important to go and see for yourself before we believe
- 40:44Speaker 4: what propaganda and certain media networks would like to present
- 40:51Speaker 4: as what is really happening in Africa. So I'm going
- 40:55Speaker 4: to come back to this protocol, protocol to the African
- 40:57Speaker 4: Charter on Human and People's Rights, on the rights of
- 41:01Speaker 4: women in Africa. They refer to it as the Mapuchu
- 41:04Speaker 4: Protopol remains one of the most progressive legal instruments with
- 41:08Speaker 4: the comprehensive set of human rights provisions for African women
- 41:12Speaker 4: and girls. Now keep in mind that this is being established,
- 41:16Speaker 4: this is part of this report. Right. However, we are
- 41:19Speaker 4: exhibited in media and even on the ground some very
- 41:25Speaker 4: negative manifestations of actions and violations against our African women
- 41:32Speaker 4: and girls. So, whether persons want to speak of what
- 41:37Speaker 4: transpired in northern Nigeria with the forced removal, kidnapping, torture,
- 41:43Speaker 4: rape and in some instance's deaths of the young schoolgirls,
- 41:49Speaker 4: whether it's finding women in different parts of the continent
- 41:53Speaker 4: and other parts of the world where we're finding African
- 41:57Speaker 4: women in shallow graves, we're finding African women and drowning
- 42:01Speaker 4: obscure spaces, and persons tend to overlook the fact that
- 42:06Speaker 4: some of these women are not even documented. So it's
- 42:13Speaker 4: hard to miss a human it's not even documented, especially
- 42:21Speaker 4: young woman. So I say this so that we are
- 42:25Speaker 4: in a space when I highlight some of these things.
- 42:28Speaker 4: This is this is a global agenda.
- 42:30Speaker 2: This is not just.
- 42:33Speaker 4: What I think to prioritize. What I think is should
- 42:36Speaker 4: be highlighted. But there are some very key determinants that
- 42:40Speaker 4: are linked to agriculture, legal procedures, economic development, education, health.
- 42:49Speaker 4: I'm gonna keeps saying that health, you're not well. You
- 42:55Speaker 4: can't be too participatory in these affairs. There's a whole
- 43:01Speaker 4: section of researchers that are involved in training, political analysies
- 43:07Speaker 4: and capacity building for women unions, women trade associations so
- 43:13Speaker 4: that we can actually help our sisters globally to the
- 43:20Speaker 4: best of our ability. So I think it's really critical
- 43:23Speaker 4: that we spend some quality time for persons that aren't
- 43:27Speaker 4: as familiar with what is happening in the African continent.
- 43:30Speaker 4: What are some of the benefits? Not everyone is starving.
- 43:33Speaker 4: Keep that in mind. All of the wealth and riches
- 43:36Speaker 4: of the entire international community have to give their nud
- 43:42Speaker 4: have to give some thanks and praise for being able
- 43:45Speaker 4: to extract, in many instances exploitively extract, but to extract
- 43:50Speaker 4: resources that the world is benefiting from, whether it's chocolate, rubber,
- 43:56Speaker 4: cold tan, diamonds, I can go list, uranium doesn't matter.
- 44:04Speaker 4: The African continent is one of the richest continents to
- 44:07Speaker 4: some the richest continents on Earth and has fed, clothed
- 44:15Speaker 4: and sheltered all of humanity for millennium, not for a
- 44:21Speaker 4: decade or a century, but for thousands and thousands, thousands
- 44:28Speaker 4: of years. And I think it's really important that when
- 44:31Speaker 4: we talk about Pan African Women's Day, and it's very
- 44:35Speaker 4: humble beginnings as a precursor to some of the other
- 44:38Speaker 4: organizations that still do exist in twenty twenty four, that
- 44:42Speaker 4: is really critical and important that we remember some of
- 44:45Speaker 4: that to the best of our ability. So with that
- 44:48Speaker 4: being said, I wanted to also some persons were like, well,
- 44:52Speaker 4: yesterday my guests and I will talk about my guests
- 44:58Speaker 4: because she said she would join us another two and
- 45:00Speaker 4: that is none other than Oh, I have to agree.
- 45:10Speaker 4: Powerful system, a royal powerful system that I had the
- 45:16Speaker 4: honor and privilege to come to know through some of
- 45:21Speaker 4: the work as an ambassador at large within network. And
- 45:27Speaker 4: I can put up that website with people aren't familiar
- 45:31Speaker 4: with idle Network, but I think you can just go
- 45:33Speaker 4: to idlenetwork dot org and learn a little bit more
- 45:38Speaker 4: about some of the International Humanitarian Work of IDOL, which
- 45:43Speaker 4: is a not for profit organization that focuses on really
- 45:50Speaker 4: providing connections to healthcare, human rights, business and humanitarian efforts.
- 45:57Speaker 4: I feel it's very important, very critical for people to
- 46:02Speaker 4: be familiarized with organizations like I don't because many times
- 46:08Speaker 4: we think that people are not doing anything for inside
- 46:12Speaker 4: of and within the African continent, and that is very
- 46:15Speaker 4: far from the truth formulated through the vision and words
- 46:21Speaker 4: sound power of His Highness Yanda Pauliganda Jones and his
- 46:30Speaker 4: reluctant Queen, Her Highness between Grace Baganda Jones. I think
- 46:36Speaker 4: it's really important for persons to just get an idea
- 46:39Speaker 4: of some of the work, the efforts, the whole vibration
- 46:45Speaker 4: of not just having a dream, but manifesting positive upliftment
- 46:52Speaker 4: for African people by African people within the continent as
- 46:58Speaker 4: well as in the diaspora. And it's very very important
- 47:03Speaker 4: that there is a knowledge base for persons to know
- 47:07Speaker 4: that there are various cultural institutions that bring together a
- 47:12Speaker 4: major networking of royalty, kings, queens, traditional chiefs and elders
- 47:18Speaker 4: that really provide an alternative to some of the foreign models.
- 47:24Speaker 4: And I quote this that are running society so quote.
- 47:29Speaker 4: Revival of the bud to philosophical basis in leadership, putting
- 47:34Speaker 4: ethics morals first is what drives this new strategy forward.
- 47:42Speaker 4: This is also an opportunity for partnerships and cooperation that
- 47:46Speaker 4: embrace Africa's distant descendants from the unfortunate victims of ancient
- 47:54Speaker 4: foreign barbaric practices of the enslaver trade. I think you
- 47:59Speaker 4: just saw would happened family, human trafficking and the inhuman
- 48:04Speaker 4: institution of enslavement. So there's a lot that happens inside
- 48:08Speaker 4: of organizational entities like IDLE. I think it's also important
- 48:14Speaker 4: for persons to just be able to recognize that you
- 48:19Speaker 4: can easily go to the background and learn a little
- 48:24Speaker 4: bit more. It's a relatively new organization that has widened
- 48:29Speaker 4: its reach not only in Ghana, South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Togo,
- 48:38Speaker 4: the forty eight contiguous US UK, reaching with connections in
- 48:43Speaker 4: Canada as well as in Germany and throughout Guyana, Jamaica
- 48:48Speaker 4: and other parts of the diaspora. I think it's important
- 48:51Speaker 4: for persons to just get an idea of the type
- 48:53Speaker 4: of networking, the types of cultural institutions, the type of
- 48:56Speaker 4: community groups that are working with certain extras certifs locally
- 49:02Speaker 4: and otherwise for social change. And it's also important that
- 49:07Speaker 4: couple of things. Culture tends to be left behind and
- 49:11Speaker 4: within IDO, and I want I think I'm gonna put
- 49:14Speaker 4: this particular link so you can find out what IDO
- 49:16Speaker 4: is with those persons that may have lost some connection,
- 49:22Speaker 4: just so that you can peruse on your own. Greetings
- 49:25Speaker 4: Sister quain Trivita parents, it's wonderful to having joined us.
- 49:30Speaker 4: I think it's really critical that our sisters and brothers
- 49:33Speaker 4: also know that while we're highlighting Pan African women, say,
- 49:36Speaker 4: we're highlighting all of these other elements, all these other
- 49:39Speaker 4: institutional entities that facilitate our understanding, our awareness of how
- 49:45Speaker 4: we begin to work together, how we begin to build. So,
- 49:49Speaker 4: whether it's to network on who's publishing certain publications, whether
- 49:53Speaker 4: it's to provide support for our sisters that are in
- 49:57Speaker 4: the forefront of working with wrongfully incarcerated brothers and sisters.
- 50:06Speaker 4: I see them as prisoners of war just as much
- 50:10Speaker 4: as I see others that might have been enough formal
- 50:14Speaker 4: situation with warfare, right, because if you spend more than
- 50:21Speaker 4: half of your adult life incarcerated for something that you
- 50:24Speaker 4: keep telling for decades that you haven't done and you
- 50:30Speaker 4: survive that, what kind of reparatory justice would heal that?
- 50:37Speaker 4: So I really want to give my words, sound power
- 50:40Speaker 4: and strength to those sisters and brothers that are in
- 50:43Speaker 4: the forefront of that kind of work, because that is
- 50:45Speaker 4: instrumental to how some of us are putting certain things together.
- 50:50Speaker 4: I started to speak of our guests that had another priority,
- 50:57Speaker 4: and I want to highlight that that other priority was
- 51:00Speaker 4: humanitarian priority, because we've had some very serious matters affecting
- 51:07Speaker 4: not only our African communities, but our Eurasian communities, our
- 51:13Speaker 4: Native Mamorindian communities, and just humanity. You know, we have
- 51:18Speaker 4: lost a significant core of our humanity globally. When you
- 51:24Speaker 4: can read about a teenage child, for whatever reason, going
- 51:31Speaker 4: to a dance class in the UK and wantingly stabbing
- 51:36Speaker 4: people to death and they're still navigating what took place,
- 51:41Speaker 4: what happened? That makes you have to pause and definitely
- 51:45Speaker 4: going to a place of prayer and deep reflection. What
- 51:51Speaker 4: has happened to our psyching where there's that total disregard
- 51:58Speaker 4: for human life. What we're reading about that's happening in
- 52:03Speaker 4: West papour in the Guinea, and people are like she
- 52:05Speaker 4: went from Africa to the point of contiguous, start talking
- 52:10Speaker 4: about UK. Get ready to go into some other spaces.
- 52:14Speaker 4: But in West Papour in the Guinea specific onlands, you know,
- 52:17Speaker 4: we always think of like we say hula beginning it
- 52:20Speaker 4: that's like one particular culture. And then we think of
- 52:24Speaker 4: savages because people will present them with their tongue out
- 52:28Speaker 4: their mouth and piercing or bone through their nose. Again,
- 52:33Speaker 4: cultural ascension means that things will have meaning in different spaces,
- 52:41Speaker 4: and it's more important for us to humble our spirit
- 52:44Speaker 4: and learn before we get judgment to that which we
- 52:48Speaker 4: do not know. Always use a hashtag delete ignorance, add wisdom,
- 52:56Speaker 4: hashtag add wisdom. It's important that we begin to learn.
- 53:01Speaker 4: But what is happening again is recent as Monday, you know,
- 53:05Speaker 4: just a few days ago, early part of July, a
- 53:07Speaker 4: letter part of July. Rather, we're getting reports that in
- 53:11Speaker 4: spaces that are usually pretty idyllic, people eat a lot
- 53:15Speaker 4: of fruit meat. Fellowship voting. But for some time now,
- 53:24Speaker 4: because it's not an a pray of medium, we have
- 53:28Speaker 4: brothers and sisters, or at least I should say males
- 53:33Speaker 4: and females I hope they. I would like to say
- 53:35Speaker 4: that my brothers and sisters that are violently attacking one another,
- 53:46Speaker 4: massacring one another over land disputes because the population, of
- 53:51Speaker 4: course is increased due to circumstances outside of many of
- 53:56Speaker 4: their controls. Again, colonization at its best twenty first century
- 54:02Speaker 4: conversation I should have. And it's escalating. It's escalating because
- 54:10Speaker 4: then it's moving into a space of accusations of sorcery
- 54:14Speaker 4: on how people are able to acquire land or get land,
- 54:19Speaker 4: who signed the land over to them. These are things
- 54:21Speaker 4: that are in importance. The thing is really important that
- 54:24Speaker 4: we recognize what's happening on the global plane, where some
- 54:28Speaker 4: people it'll appear apocalyptic. Some people may go as far
- 54:32Speaker 4: as to see it as the last days, the vibration
- 54:36Speaker 4: shift of our m Gideon, and we can go on
- 54:40Speaker 4: and on and on, but at the end of the
- 54:42Speaker 4: weep see at the end of the day, what we
- 54:46Speaker 4: like to highlight, or we should highlight, is how important
- 54:51Speaker 4: it is for us to remain centered, grounded in truth, justice, order, reciprocity, balanced,
- 55:00Speaker 4: divine righteousness and harmony to the best of our ability.
- 55:04Speaker 4: So I think it's really important that we spend some
- 55:06Speaker 4: time in that space and really send prayers, prayers in action.
- 55:17Speaker 4: When will we see peace? What is required for there
- 55:20Speaker 4: to be a restoration of peace and prosperity, and how
- 55:25Speaker 4: do we bring that truth to power. What I love
- 55:29Speaker 4: about this broadcast is usually when I thought that I
- 55:32Speaker 4: might have forgotten certain things, I didn't and I've got
- 55:37Speaker 4: cheat sheets. So the next time that we gather, which
- 55:42Speaker 4: I'm definitely looking forward to because it'll be later this
- 55:46Speaker 4: week on Thursday, since we continue to have odd speechs
- 55:51Speaker 4: building a new legacy, the first and third Thursday, and
- 55:55Speaker 4: I'll select bonus opportunities as are hoarded to us. We
- 56:00Speaker 4: will also share some other words of power of words
- 56:05Speaker 4: of strength. I encourage our sisters and brothers to take
- 56:11Speaker 4: some time learn about some of these different organizations that
- 56:15Speaker 4: are doing a variety of things. I think this is
- 56:18Speaker 4: a great time for us to speak about. I wanted
- 56:23Speaker 4: to share about the Omanye Royal Kingdom under the leadership
- 56:29Speaker 4: of Her Royal Majesty Vicki Lecstar. I'm just going to
- 56:34Speaker 4: leave a nugget in that regard because her plan was
- 56:39Speaker 4: to join us.

- 57:05Speaker 4: for you to explore learn a little bit more about
- 57:08Speaker 4: her Royal Majesty, Queen Vicky Lextar, and we'll get an
- 57:12Speaker 4: opportunity to speak with her in ways that really will
- 57:17Speaker 4: help us to understand their commitment to respect for humanity,
- 57:23Speaker 4: faith in what is right and I quote, and a
- 57:26Speaker 4: desire to seek the best for a common good. Just
- 57:30Speaker 4: so we can get an idea of some of the work,
- 57:33Speaker 4: some of the efforts that she brings in terms of
- 57:37Speaker 4: the work being done by the Amanu Blow Kingdom. And

- 58:44Speaker 4: Women's Day, I encourage you to learn what you can.

- 58:52Speaker 4: to be really proficient. We seem to be really proficient
- 58:57Speaker 4: on highlighting what we learn to gather online. But I'm
- 59:01Speaker 4: giving some links that persons can use and share in
- 59:05Speaker 4: their respective spaces. Some of them will come from the
- 59:08Speaker 4: African Union, some of them will come from the Department
- 59:13Speaker 4: of State. So because I know some people are very
- 59:15Speaker 4: comfortable with recognizing, you know, some of the efforts, some
