And again 4 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: we're gonna go ahead and put our caveats at the top. Pronunciation. 5 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 2: We're trying our best. Some of the things are kind 6 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 2: of a struggle. 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: Again, we are. 8 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 2: US citizens and myself who is really trying to figure 9 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 2: out these pronunciations. So if we say a name wrong, 10 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: whatever organization wrong, please let us know because we do 11 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: want to correct it. But know that we did try 12 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 2: to research and trying our damnedest. And like I have discovered, 13 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 2: when it comes to languages, when you're technique in accident, 14 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 2: skills are specific to one area and you don't travel 15 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: often into these areas with very different differing languages, your 16 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: muscle memory slash mouth like muscles can't form some words 17 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 2: that I really wish I could. I wish I was 18 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 2: that fluid. It's kind of like the rolling of the rs. 19 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: I can't do it well. I figured this out, and 20 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: as I'm trying to learn Korean, I can't do the 21 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 2: back of the throat like throttle that they do in 22 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 2: some of their words. I'm sad about that, but just 23 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: put that at the top of here, as well as 24 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 2: the fact I am going to absolutely be transparent with 25 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: the all when I say when it comes to conflicts 26 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: around the world, I am naive. There are a few 27 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: things that I do know of, and we have been 28 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: very very very much so blinded by our own teachings, 29 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: especially here in the US, especially here in the South, 30 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: in which we were not taught things correctly and or 31 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: we have been ignorant and or taught misinformation a lot. 32 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: I think we've talked about that a lot. 33 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: I love that we have social media now to learn 34 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: a little more depth of it, and I am very 35 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: proud of the fact that our younger generations are understanding that. 36 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: As a person who was an excellennial, I have found 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: my group of people I understand that I do not 38 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: completely understand what has happened and what is continuing to 39 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: happen all around the world, and that includes again from 40 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 2: my own country, home country of Korea. I just learned 41 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: some new facts that I'm like, why didn't I know this? 42 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: In the establishment of North Korea. I was like, wow, 43 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 2: this has a lot to do with US militarial dictation 44 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: that I had no idea dictatorship essentially in its well matter. 45 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: And I'm not like my mind is blown, let's just 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: say that. But as we try to continue to highlight 47 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: things around the world, and as we are teaching ourselves, 48 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: I'm learning myself. I have realized it will take another 49 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 2: two semesters, if not four years, of trying to study 50 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 2: what is happening in the conflicts and to get to 51 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 2: the nitty gritty and to get to the understanding and 52 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 2: the backgrounds of some of the atrocities that have happened 53 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: and continue to happen. So I'm gonna put that at 54 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: this top. As I am we are speaking and highlighting 55 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 2: these activists, Please know if something is misarticulated or something 56 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: is out of frame in lay timelines, we are doing 57 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,839 Speaker 2: our best. Please correct us though, because we don't want 58 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: to stay on that misinformation obviously, including the fact that 59 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: one of the articles on here says like a twenty 60 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: eleven timeline, and then you go to her actual site. 61 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: The activist actual site has twenty ten. But then I 62 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: kind of go back and forth and I think, actually 63 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 2: her website might be off because of the articles that 64 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: were written. But hu, and again that's like thirteen years ago, 65 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: so more than a decade, just as a reminder. So, 66 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 2: but that does not stop us from highlighting the amazing activist, 67 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: because that shouldn't stop us just because we are afraid 68 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: that we might be off with just some of the information. 69 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: So again, if y'all have more information, I would like 70 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: to tell us more, please please do all right, so 71 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: let's jump into it. So we're talking about the first 72 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: Arab woman who won the Nobel Peace Prize, Tawakool Carmen, 73 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 2: and she was also the youngest at the time to 74 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 2: win the Nobel Peace Prize. This was in twenty eleven, 75 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: as well as the fact I believe she's the second 76 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 2: Muslim woman to actually win as well, So a lot 77 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: of first for her, like or at least close to 78 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: and Carmen is a Yemini activist who has been working 79 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 2: for the rights and nonviolent resistance for women's rights and 80 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: freedoms for her community. Along with her works as an advocate, 81 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: Carmen is also a journalist and writer and has learned 82 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: a lot from her own family, who are very politically involved. 83 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 2: Her father served as a Minister of Legal Affairs in 84 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: the late eighties and early nineties. 85 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: In her country, and after earning her degrees, she quickly 86 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: became active in political activism within her country. Here's a 87 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: bit about her from Britannica dot com. Graduated from the 88 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: University of Science and Technology in Sanah with a degree 89 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: in commerce in nineteen ninety nine and later earned a 90 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: master's degree in political science. After completing her education, Carmen 91 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: began career in journalism, writing articles, producing documentary films, and 92 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: disseminating news alerts via text messages, and she encountered restrictions 93 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: and threats from the Umeni government. Carmen and several of 94 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,799 Speaker 1: her colleagues founded Women Journalists Without Chains in two thousand 95 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: and five to advocate for women's rights, civil rights, and 96 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: freedom of expression. 97 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 2: So here's a bit from her own site, Tawakkolecarmen dot 98 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: net talking about the Women Journalists Without Chains quote. In 99 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 2: two thousand and five, she founded Women Journalists Without Chains 100 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: to advocate for freedom of the press and worked as 101 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: a campaigning journalist reporting on government and justice and human 102 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: rights issues, including malnutrition and illiteracy among girls. In two 103 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 2: thousand and five, Carmen was one of eight female journalists 104 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 2: who founded the human rights group Women Journalists Without Chains. 105 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 2: The group promoted press freedom and mobile phone news services, 106 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 2: which were tightly. 107 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: And here's some more information from her bio in the 108 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: Noblewomen's Initiative dot org quote a journalist by profession and 109 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: human rights activists by nature. Tawakoul responded to the political 110 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: instability in human rights abuses in Yemen by mobilizing others 111 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: and reporting on injustices. In two thousand and five, she 112 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: founded the organization Women Journalists Without Chains wj WC, which 113 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,239 Speaker 1: advocates for rights and freedoms and provides media skills to journalists. 114 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: In addition, the organization produces regular reports on human rights 115 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: abuses in Yemen, documenting more than fifty cases of attacks 116 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: and unfair sentences against newspapers and writers to date. With 117 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: all of these abuses and unfair treatment against the press 118 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: and journalists, Carmen began organizing sit ins and demonstrations to 119 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: protest the government. Here's some more information from that Britannica 120 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: profile quote. In two thousand and seven, Carmen began staging 121 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: weekly sudents in Sanad to demand a variety of democratic reforms. 122 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: She continued the practice for several years and was arrested 123 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: moreultiple times for her activism. Although Carmen was a senior 124 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: member of the islab Refeign Party, Yemmon's main Islamist opposition party, 125 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: she occasionally clashed with the party's religious conservatives. In twenty ten, 126 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: for example, she criticized members of her own party for 127 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: opposing legislation to raise the legal marriage age for women 128 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: to seventeen. 129 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 2: So in twenty eleven, Carmen was still organizing sit ins 130 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: and protests, including for students around the areas, and she 131 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: was a target for the government for her continued work. 132 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: In January of twenty eleven, she and her family were 133 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: stopped by playing clothes officers and taken to prison for 134 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 2: thirty six hours. And it was this action that many 135 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 2: really saw what was happening with Carmen and her work 136 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: in protests. So here's a quote that she had written 137 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: and published into April twenty eleven in a Guardian article 138 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: about the situation. And yes, we're pretty much reading two 139 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: articles that she had written soon after. So we were 140 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 2: going to be reading this in the New York Times article, 141 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: and we're doing a big chunk because I think it's 142 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: important that you hear her words. That we all hear 143 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: her words rather so. The revolution in Yuman began immediately 144 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: after the fall of Ben Ali Indunisia. On January fourteenth, 145 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 2: As I always do when arranging a demonstration, I posted 146 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: a message on Facebook calling on people to celebrate the 147 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Tunisian uprising on sixteenth of January. The following day, a 148 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 2: group of students from Sunai University asked me to attend 149 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: a visual in front of the Tunisian embassy. The crowd 150 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 2: was shouting heroes, we are with you in the line 151 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 2: of fire against the evil rulers. We were treated roughly 152 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 2: by the security forces, and we chanted if one day 153 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 2: a people desire to live, then destiny will answer their 154 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 2: call and the night must come to an end, the 155 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 2: mantra of the revolutionaries in Tunisia. The demonstration was astonishing. 156 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: Thousands turned up and Sina's witnessed its first peaceful demonstration 157 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: of the overthrow of the regime. Go before you were 158 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 2: driven out, we cried. The nice suit and youth leaders 159 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: visited me along with the human rights activists Ahmed safe 160 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 2: Hashid and the writer Abdul Bahi Tahir. We agreed that 161 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: we would not let this historic moment pass us by 162 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 2: and that we too could spark a peaceful revolution to 163 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 2: demand an end to the despotic regime. We decided there 164 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 2: was to be no backing down, despite the repression we 165 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: knew would come. The rallies grew daily, even though the 166 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 2: government deployed thugs against us. After a week of protest, 167 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: I was detained by the security forces in the middle 168 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: of the night. This has to become a defining moment 169 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 2: in the Yemini Revolution. Media outlets reported my detention and 170 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 2: demonstrations erupted in most provinces of the country. They were 171 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 2: organized by students, civil society activists, and politicians. The pressure 172 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 2: on the government was intense and I was released after 173 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 2: thirty six hours in a women's prison, where I was 174 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: kept in chains. After my release, I continued to demonstrate. 175 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: Invitations were sent to all parties, including the people of 176 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 2: the south, the hutis in the north, the tribes, trade unions, 177 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: civil society organizations, and the army to join the peaceful 178 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 2: student and demand an end to the regime. 179 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: And in June that same year, she went on to 180 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: publish another article in The New York Times titled Yemen's 181 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: Unfinished Revolution, where she writes, after more than five months 182 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: of continuous protest, I stand today in Changed Square with 183 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: thousands of young people, united by a lofty dream. I 184 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: have spent days and nights camped out in tents with 185 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: fellow protesters. I have led demonstrations in the streets, facing 186 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: the threat of mortars, missiles and gunfire. I have struggled 187 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: to build a movement for democratic change, all while caring 188 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: for my three young children. We have reached this historic 189 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: moment because we chose to march in the streets demanding 190 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: the resignation of President Ali Abdullah Sale, an end to 191 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: his corrupt and failed regime, and the establishment of a 192 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: modern democratic state. On June fourth, our wish for mister 193 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: Sali's departure was granted, but our demand for democracy remains unfulfilled. 194 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: Following months of peaceful protests that reached every village, neighborhood, 195 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: and street, Yemen is now facing a complete vacuum of 196 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: authority without a president or parliament. Mister Sally may be gone, 197 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,119 Speaker 1: but authority has not yet been transferred to transitional presidential 198 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: Council endorsed by the people. 199 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 2: So in the article, she continues to implore outside governments 200 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: to intervene and essentially the mess that they help cause, 201 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: that we're killing and violating the many citizens. And yeah, 202 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 2: I would encourage everyone to go to either one of 203 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 2: these articles or both of these articles. You can. Actually 204 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: she does have a Wikipedia page and there are links 205 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: to that New York Times article as where well as 206 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 2: a Guardian article where she talks about what is happening 207 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 2: and what is needed and who she's calling out, and 208 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: of course the US is a part of that, and 209 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: I feel like that's a big key proponent to a 210 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 2: majority of these conflicts. We'll just keep that right there. 211 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 2: I'm on a list. I'm definitely on a list. 212 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: I've been on a list in s eighth grade. 213 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 2: But just how deeply it's going and what they need 214 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: and what they're calling out, and they're on history behind 215 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: who is putting these people in power and for what reason? 216 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 2: And I think it's really important that we keep talking 217 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 2: about it because these conflicts are still happening. So during 218 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 2: these long protests and demonstrations, Carmen would continue to call 219 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: for peaceful protests, even saying quote, with non violence, the 220 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 2: journey to freedom is less bloody and more guaranteed. Of course, yes, 221 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 2: and there was a lot of violence happening against them, 222 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 2: including people dying during demonstrations, So her tireless work and 223 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 2: fighting still continues as she travels around the world speaking 224 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: and advocating for peace and human rights and protections for 225 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: her people in all people, and of course, along with 226 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: her Nobel Peace Prize, she has many other accolades under names. 227 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: She has a documentary of her I believe the title 228 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,359 Speaker 2: the Screams We Talk About the Women's Revolt in twenty eleven, 229 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: and from her site says quote. She has received various 230 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: awards and accolades, which includes one of Time Magazine's Most 231 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 2: Rebellious Women in History in twenty eleven, one of Foreign 232 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: Policy Magazine's Top one hundred Global Thinkers for three years, 233 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 2: one of cnian's list of most Powerful Women in the World. 234 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 2: Towerkool has been selected for international powerful positions, member of 235 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 2: the United Nations High Level Panel of Imminent Persons on 236 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 2: Post twenty fifteen Development, member of Transparency Internationals Advisory Council, 237 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: and many international NGOs.
