Good evening everyone. Welcome to On the Frontlines, a virtual conversation with Yvonne Yanez and Marion Cisneros. My name is Beth Lormer and I'm the Ecological Justice Program Coordinator for Cairo's Canada. Cairo's strives to bring together peoples, Indigenous, settler, and newcomer in a shared commitment to ecological justice and human rights. We work with networks of activists in Canada with global partners around the world and with Canadian churches. A technical note before we proceed. Interpretation is enabled for tonight's event. If you would like to follow along in Spanish, please locate the globe icon at the bottom of your Zoom window and use the menu to select which language you would like to follow along in. I would like to begin this evening in a good way by acknowledging the land where I am located and where the Cairo's Toronto office is located. This is the land of the Wendat, the Haudenosaunee, and more recently the Mississaugas. It is a land governed by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which is an agreement to peaceably share and care for the lands and resources around the Great Lakes. I would encourage you to take a moment wherever you are right now to acknowledge in your heart the First Peoples and the Treaties of the Land in which you inhabit and to express gratitude. You are also welcome to share where you are joining us from in the chat. Tonight's webinar is part of Cairo's Climate Action Month. Cairo's began Climate Action Month in 2019 to galvanize awareness and action around the climate crisis and to highlight the impacts on vulnerable communities, including women and Indigenous peoples. On each day in September, we post content about a topic related to climate change on our website and this content is centered around weekly themes and we provide supporting resources to learn more including reports, videos, events like this one, and reflections and more. Our theme this week is Indigenous Rights and throughout this week we will showcase the leadership and resilience of Indigenous women, land offenders, and water protectors who are taking action to protect their communities at great personal risk. Next week we will be exploring global climate justice and I invite you to join us next Tuesday at the same time 7 p.m. Eastern for our next event, a screening and discussion of the film Women Hold Up the Sky, African Women Rise for Climate Justice. More information and to register for this event will be shared in the chat momentarily. One of the main actions that we are supporting this month is an e-petition calling on the federal government to increase its targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, to support adjust transition, to uphold Indigenous rights, and to respond to the pandemic and climate crisis in the global south. I will also include a link to that e-petition and I encourage you to sign it today and share it with your family and friends. The signatures close on October 6. And I invite all Canadian citizens who are joining us tonight to sign that and take part in that action. So you can follow the Kairos blog on our homepage for new Climate Action Month content daily. And I thank you for joining us in this collective action and learning for climate justice by being here with us tonight. Tonight's event also recognizes Kairos' work in partnership with women land defenders and water defenders, primarily Indigenous women and organizations in Canada and the global south. This work aims to make visible the impacts of resource extraction on Indigenous women, to draw attention to Indigenous women's work in the defense of community rights and the environment, to advocate for corporate accountability of the Canadian extractive sector operating abroad. Last November, Kairos launched Mother Earth and resource extraction, otherwise known as Neer Hub. And this is a living digital resource hub developed for and in consultation with women land and water defenders. The hub brings together a range of original and existing material to support research, advocacy, information sharing, and movement building around the subject of resource extraction and its gendered implications. I encourage you to visit them your hub and explore its content. And I will also put that link in the chat momentarily. A few more technical notes for tonight. Tonight's event will be recorded in Spanish and English and shared on the Kairos website in the coming days. So you can check back on that and you can share it with anyone who wasn't able to make it tonight. We have also enabled the Q&A for tonight's event. If you have questions for Yvonne and Mirian, please write them in the Q&A. Our event is only one hour tonight, but if time remains at the end of the evening, we will take three questions at a time for Mirian and Yvonne and we'll respond to those. If you have questions for Kairos during this event, you may also use the Q&A and we can respond to them. We'll follow up with responses. I am now going to pass it over to my colleague, Rachel Warden, who will introduce our guests tonight and moderate this evening's conversation. Rachel is Kairos' Partnerships Manager, coordinating our program on gender peace and security and our work on gendered impacts of resource extraction. And she has many years of working in solidarity and partnership with organizations in Latin America. I now pass it over to you. Rachel, thank you. Thank you. Before I introduce our guests, I just want to say what a great privilege and honor it is to be at this panel to moderate it. When I think of on the front lines in el frente of Indigenous resistance and land defense and climate justice, I think of Ecuador and I think of Acción Ecológica. Acción Ecológica is a highly respected environmental organization that works on environmental issues and climate justice locally, nationally, and internationally. They work on a range of issues from local transportation to international campaigns to keep the oil in the ground. They're members of Oil Watch International and networks of women land defenders in Latin America. And their work is solidly grounded in relationships with Indigenous peoples in Ecuador and based on mutual support, respect, and a common agenda. Just a little bit about our history with Acción Ecológica. We have a long-standing partnership with Acción Ecológica as Kairos. And the thing about being involved in this ecumenical work for a long time, almost 25 years, is that I remember this history. And I remember that Acción Ecológica and the women, because they are mostly women, have always been on the front lines of climate justice. I remember when Acción Ecológica introduced the concept of ecological debt to the Jubilee campaign over 20 years ago. Now, the Jubilee campaign, as you probably know, is about debt forgiveness. Ecological debt required a paradigm shift, basically putting for the idea that the North and Northern so-called developed country owed the South, not vice versa, because of the environmental destruction, human rights violations caused by centuries of exploitation and resource extraction and colonization. This was definitely on the front lines in El Frente at the time. Now it's become much more of discourse around climate justice. And throughout the history of Acción Ecológica, they have been on the front lines and with them have been Indigenous communities and movements. Together they led the campaign for the rights of nature and Mother Earth and continued to defend these rights even in a country where these rights are part of the Constitution and still being violated. They led to keep the oil in the soil campaign, when Laisuni became a model or a case study or emblematic of that. And Yvonne, one of our speakers, was the lead voice in this campaign. They continue to call for and promote the right for Buen Vivir living with enough. An ideal or a way of life that is lived by many Indigenous communities and is an alternative to consumerism and capitalism. So it's been a real privilege to work with Acción Ecológica in partnership. They have really informed our work at Cairo's, but I also think the work of climate justice movement in general. There is actually a shout out to the work of Acción Ecológica in Naomi Klein's book, This Changes Everything, Capitalism versus Climate Change. And perhaps this in This Changes Everything refers to organizations like Acción Ecológica. So again, it's a real privilege to be here on the front lines with Acción Ecológica to discuss these issues. I could go on and on about how fabulous Acción Ecológica is and how much I've learned from them, but I won't because our guests from Ecuador and from Acción Ecológica have more direct experience and far more interesting things to say. So it's been a real, it's a real pleasure to introduce both Yvonne and Yanez and Miriam Cisnero who have joined me for our conversation today. Yvonne is a founding member of Acción Ecológica, which I've talked about. And she's also a member of Oil Watch. It's an organization, an organization or network that resists oil activities. Yvonne works on energy issues, climate justice, and more recently, environmental services. She's been an active promoter of Keep Oil in the Soil as I mentioned for many years and has talked internationally about Yasuni as an emblematic case of keeping the oil in the Soil. Miriam Cisneros is a daughter of the Sarayaku Kichwa peoples and is a former president of Sarayaku community. For 40 years, she's been defending human and environmental rights and has participated in local, national, international events for the protection of Mother Earth. She represents the many indigenous women who are leaders in the struggles of the Kichwa people in the Amazon. And we just learned that she was a key voice in the mobilizations, indigenous mobilizations in Ecuador that happened last year. So I'm going to start our conversation now. I'm going to switch to Spanish. Okay. So I'm going to start the conversation now with the questions. And the questions are in three parts and each part has 15 minutes. And each question can be made in a webinar, but each minute has like five minutes. So let's start now. Let's start with the first question. The first question is the same for both, for Miriam and Yvonne. And currently it's three questions, but that's the question. If you can tell us a little about your experiences as a defender of human rights and the territory and as activists for climate justice in Ecuador. What are the biggest failures that have faced in this work and where do you find hope or opportunity to change? And I don't know who wants to start. Well, first of all, greetings to those who are listening to us and giving us this segment, this conversation that is very important for all indigenous peoples and for all the people, families, activists who follow us to the fight and the defense that we have taken from our territories. Well, remember the question that makes, what are the biggest failures that we have faced as women, as organizations as well as collective organizations of indigenous peoples and organizations? I am going to talk from the perspective of the struggle of women that we have taken in the course of several years so far, that for women it has not been easy to face as in the Ecuadorian Amazon, our struggle has been the defense of the territory because it has been a space of life for us, a space that gives us a deep connection between motherland and human being. Many women identify with the land because women are mothers, the land produced by women and we also give life to human beings. Within the challenges, we women are the most unprotected, I could say. When we started our struggle as women in defense of our territory against the extractive companies, we have been violent, we are the ones who have suffered the violence in our own flesh, in our struggles. This makes women also do the voice. The authorities, the government does not see us as people who are defending life in itself. Rather, they have seen us as a stone in the shoe that we are not letting a country develop.  Well, for us, development does not exist. There is only the concept of life in harmony with motherland, with motherland, with nature and with the space where we live.  They have tried to silence us, they have humiliated us, they have killed us, many of our sisters, not only here in Ecuador, but in many countries where the indigenous peoples are fighting for the space of life, to guarantee healthy life, life as well as they left us an inheritance as a legacy of our ancestors, that space where for millions of years we existed, that is what they have wanted to silence us. Therefore, women see us as the only hope to find the unity between women and other peoples that have the same similar struggles as ours. Suddenly, they are stronger than ours, that sometimes it gives us a lot of pain, it gives us a lot of sadness that women have to talk about our struggles. When governments only tell us that we are childless ecologists, when it is about a life, when it is about defending a life for the planet and for all humanity, the hope is in us, in all of us, because we are the only responsible to take care of ourselves, because the land is not ours, rather we live with the land, we are part of the land, we also live as prisoners in that space of life, suddenly to leave the inheritance for our future generations, we have to expose our lives in the streets, in different spaces to be heard. So that has been a very big challenge that we as women, not only me, but there are many Amazonian women who we are in front of, we have suffered this type of aggression, this type of violence, discrimination in different areas, where we expose ourselves to danger, but we are firm with our positions, with our proposals, showing that if humanity enters consciousness, it is possible. Well, thank you very much, Miriam, for this testimony so strong and to share your experience as an indigenous woman. Ivan, if you could also talk a little about your experience as a defender, as an activist and the challenges and how and where you find opportunity and hope. Thank you very much, Rachel, a greeting to all of you who are listening to this seminar, a special greeting to our friends and friends from Cairo, who indeed are many years old, since we are fighting together and together by hand to try to get to a better world. Well, the question is very interesting, because the experiences and in my particular case, they are not disconnected from the 34 years of my connection, let's say since we founded with some friends, biologists, ecological action. And I'm going to refer a minute to that particular experience from the point of view of the organization. I'm going to ask Paulina, the interpreter, to tell me if I'm talking very quickly to lower the speed. In the year 86, the 34 years, a group of young women, mothers at that time, studied biology and later they will understand why I am referring to this particular experience. We studied biology in a university where they taught us that the sciences of life were exclusively a science linked to genes, linked to formulas, linked to the taxonomic description of plants, a science that taught us that things were from the laboratory and seemed to be disconnected from the environmental problems, disconnected from the science, disconnected from not only the environmental problems but also disconnected from the territories. And that's how it was and I bring it here now because I think it's exactly what is happening also, for example, with the topic of climate science. Climate science is a science disconnected from the territories, it is a climate science disconnected from the peoples, it is a despolitical climate science and at that time, 40 years ago, when we studied biology, we realized, let's say in this, because the forces of the universe always conflict so that things happen, I and my colleagues realized that biological science was being despolitized and it was very important at that time to create an organization that precisely links what science of life is, that links with environmental problems, etc. And all that fighting with all the challenges throughout these 35 years that have been, not only fighting against science, let's say in that sense of a science as very pure and despolitical, another challenge has also been to fight against neoliberal governments that we have had from the neoliberal policies that we have had from the end of the 80s until now. Another problem and challenge that we have had is to face the growing corporate power, another challenge that we have had is the growing militarization, judicialization, criminalization, persecution, ecological action. In fact, during the previous government of Rafael Correa, twice we had an attempt to close the organization. So here, now that we have arrived here after so many decades, what we can say is that in front of these challenges, what has inspired us to be able to move forward, precisely, I think, is precisely this need to link this vision, let's say, of what nature is, as a subject of rights that is recognized in the Ecuadorian Constitution, to link it with the peoples that take care of nature, that protect nature, because it is not alone, that protect forests, rivers, forests, etc. And the inspiration that these peoples give us, as they have said, perfectly emigrants, those words are the ones that have inspired us to be able to face these difficult challenges that we have had during these years, but also to face the challenge of seeing the world in a different way, to see the world in a way not with eyes of biology, or with eyes of climate science, or with eyes of physics, or with eyes, but with some eyes from a view of the south, and with some eyes from a view of a country, as is the case of Ecuador, where there are still indigenous peoples, where most of the agriculture is made up of peasants, and peasants mainly, where there are still fishers, where there are still communities. So this has been our great inspiration for us. And finally, I wanted to maybe refer a little more to the subject of climate justice, although I know that in the end there will be a more specific question about that. But it seems to me that it is very important to understand the struggle for climate justice from this perspective, which is this perspective of seeing nature as a subject of rights, and to understand that justice is not only justice with the peoples, but it is also a justice that has to do with nature. I think that for now this is going to be my first intervention. Thank you very much. Well, thank you very much, Ivonne, and thank you for this little story of ecological action, and also to remind us of the perspective of nature and the importance of this link between nature and the peoples. The following questions are a little bit about this perspective and the influence of the Cosmovision, and specifically the indigenous knowledge about the experience. The first question is for Miriam. So if Miriam can talk a little bit about the influence and what has been the influence of the Cosmovision and indigenous knowledge about its experience as a defender and activist. And Miriam has to put herself in a lot of status. The pandemic that puts us to use these technologies that we still do not update ourselves to learn. Well, about the influence, the importance that we have had within the Cosmovision and the ancestral knowledge, well, a little bit to tell you that our peoples fight and resist for Mother Earth. As I was telling you a while ago that the governments and industries only distract us with false solutions, giving a hope of life. But for the indigenous peoples that we fight for climate justice, it has not been easy leaving the fossils under the ground or under the earth. Our struggle is for justice, for Mother Earth, for women, for our children and for the children of our children and for those who will come. We, I'm going to talk about my people. We spent a time of problems of human rights violation with the entry of a company, CCC, to the Sarayaku territory when it came with great impacts on the territory. What is the international knowledge about the Sarayaku case that Sarayaku carried out in the process of struggle for many years? Despite that, for us, the Cosmovision and the ancestral knowledge and the relationship with Mother Earth is a spiritual connection. For us, we speak and we have a proposal CCC, which is the living jungle, that in 2018 we made a announcement that it is a life proposal that is working, thinking about us and for all indigenous peoples. For us, we are sacred. Every being has life, every being has a owner, a spirit that gives us the connection through dreams, through ayahuasca, with the Giajaks. Therefore, it is essential, it is vital for us to talk about the CCC, the living jungle. This proposal is a universal proposal that we propose a legal recognition of re-indication to the territorial land and the Pachamama, which is necessary and essential for the balance of the planet and the preservation of life. This has been very important to us because only in this way can we face the different climate changes that we are currently living. We are the ones who feel the most the affection that recently in my town and in other towns of the Río Bobonasa basin, with the Indus Nation, we have been very affected. This makes us see that every day, if the great industries of the great countries, of the governments that do not put in control, this will continue for a long time. Therefore, we continue to socialize our proposal and it is very important that all the peoples get the power of this proposal to give life to the planet earth and humanity. For the matter of time, I think this would be like an introduction of what we are connected to, according to the question. No, thank you very much, Miriam, and we have another question too later. Thank you very much for this testimony and a very deep description of the Cosmovision and the connection with the Mother Earth and the proposal of the living life. Thank you very much. The question for Yvonne is a little more about her work and experience with ecological action and the importance that indigenous knowledge and the Cosmovision has had in this work of ecological action. Thank you very much, Rachel. Effectively, what is called indigenous cosmovision is actually the way of living, the way of living indigenous peoples, because there is also the Cosmovision, let's say, not only indigenous peoples, and in fact both the indigenous Amazon peoples, like fishermen, like the peasants, like all these epistemological knowledge, knowledge, science, technology, all these contributions, let's say, that the peoples have given to humanity, it is precisely what ecological action, not only that inspires us, but what we want to defend. That is to say that these ways of living is what ecological action has been doing for the past 40, 30, and 4 years. It has wanted to protect through the support and resistance of the peoples, but also through the contribution from our organization, with, for example, campaign strategies, with visualization strategies of the importance of these knowledge, knowledge of indigenous epistemologies, peasants, fishermen, pastors, etc., and not only that we have seen, because they are important to be maintained, but because we believe that the solutions in front of the environmental crisis are precisely in the territories. And that is the first thing. The second thing is that, in particular, in these worlds that we call cosmovisions, let's say, the role of women is fundamental, not only as lifesavers, as seed protectors, as jungle protectors, but also because women in particular have a force that precisely gives to the communities of the community organizations much more power to express how Miriam has done it in this case. That is to say that cosmovision, as we see it, itself of women, has been and will continue to be fundamental, surely, and not only for ecological action, but I think it should be also fundamental for the organizations that are trying to create, to make social changes and for better. Another important thing that for us has been, let's say, important, not only for inspiration, but also because we know that we have to defend, are all strategies for the struggle that the people have. For example, the strategy of struggle to defend the water of the params in front of the mining company, or the strategy of the women that are organized in front of COVID. For example, right now there are many women in communities that are the ones that are organizing themselves precisely to face from the wisdom of the people, from the wisdom of the people to heal that they are facing the situation of COVID-19 in their territories. And in countries like Ecuador, where even though medicine is fully medicalized, but still for us and us, this wisdom of the people, for example, to heal in front of these diseases, is still very important. I mean, here people can still take their pills, but it can also be cured with herbs and traditional medicine. So the knowledge is very important, it is even in a context of a pandemic. But also, and with this I am going to finish, is that precisely the middle of Ecuador, now more than 65% of Ecuador, already lives in the cities. Even there are indigenous communities strong that live in neighborhoods of the cities, both on the coast and in the Sierra, and in the Amazon. So these knowledge that not only are knowledge of managing plants, of managing the forest, that desire for the forest, that all of this, but also are knowledge of strategies and political strategies. I think they are fundamental precisely to create alliances, alliances with organizations of the cities, to create alliances with the people of the city, to precisely face all this remittance of capitalism and also obviously to face the environmental problems that are associated with these problems, including climate change. Thank you, Yvonne. Thank you for reminding us that the solutions are in the territories and in the women and also in the knowledge of the peoples. I have another question for Miriam. I don't know if I can talk a little bit more about the influence and importance that her Cosmovision has had, her way of life, her ancestral knowledge and the relationship with the land, in her training as a defender and as an activist of climate justice. Actualmente, el cambio está en la responsabilidad de cada uno de nosotros. No es la responsabilidad de cuidar la tierra y el espacio de vida. Yo como mujer indígena, como mestiza, como ejecutoriana, como de otros continentes, asumir con responsabilidad está en cada uno de nosotros. La conciencia del ser humano tiene que verse de una manera más sabia para poder proteger. No habrá justicia mientras en el occidente no haya respeto hacia la naturaleza. Cuando las grandes industrias, petroleras, madereras, mineras de otras empresas también y hacen pequeños, medianos o grandes, siguen contaminando a este espacio de vida, solo van a quedar nuestra lucha en la nada. Nosotros, desde los pueblos indígenas, dentro de nuestros territorios donde nosotros estamos asentados, nosotros no vamos a cansar nuestra lucha porque creemos que la vida humana es nuestra responsabilidad. Y a todos quienes nos están escuchando, yo no me identifico como activista porque yo defiendo mi territorio y soy una defensora más de otras millones de mujeres y no sé cuántos pueblos también tienen las mismas luchas similares. Entonces, formo parte de ello y somos una de las personas que asamos la voz frente a estos atropellos frente a esta violación que nos traen dentro de nuestros territorios. Y esto es muy importante porque en estos espacios podemos llamar a la unidad, a la concientización, para podernos unir voces, para poder salvar nuestro planeta porque es nuestra responsabilidad. De mi parte, eso sería mi aporte en esta pregunta porque es una de las experiencias que nosotros estamos viviendo en carne propia porque día a día se abren nuevos bloques petroleros y eso es muy grave para nosotros. Muchas gracias Miriam y muchas gracias para esta perspectiva tan colectiva y recordarnos que es la unidad y que la responsabilidad de todos esta la protección de la madre tierra y la última pregunta es un poco más amplio y es un poco una pregunta de bueno hemos hablado mucho de la justicia climática pero desde su perspectiva que es la justicia climática y por qué también hemos hablado de eso pero si si quiere decir más sobre por qué las perspectivas los conocimientos y las experiencias de las mujeres indígenas y las mujeres en general son tan importante en esta esta lucha para justicia climática. So, la misma es la última pregunta, la misma pregunta para los dos, no sé quién quiere empezar. Gracias Rachel. A ver, yo quisiera empezar respondiendo a la pregunta diciendo que no es justicia climática. Lo que nosotros creemos que no es justicia climática es, por ejemplo, toda esta nueva corriente de hablar de asa de carbono cero, carbono neutral, todo lo que son impuestos de carbono, eso no es justicia climática. Tampoco el acuerdo de paris tiene que ver con justicia climática porque todos estos mecanismos lo que hacen es más bien promover la injusticia climática. Tampoco es justicia climática cuando desde el gobierno o desde las empresas hablan de salvaguardas de pueblos indígenas, cuando quieren imponer proyectos extractivos o cuando quieren imponer proyectos de servicios ambientales como, por ejemplo, REZMAS, tampoco es justicia climática lo que tiene que ver con lo que se conoce como desarrollo limpio, ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni de la gente no significa nada. Para nosotras, justicia climática, al contrario de lo que dije antes, tiene que ver, por ejemplo, con lo que Rachel mencionó al principio de este seminario, el reconocer la deuda ecológica, el reconocer la deuda ecológica que tienen los países industrializados del norte con los pueblos y los países del sur, es reconocer la deuda climática que tienen, por ejemplo, las empresas petroleras como la Texaco, Chevron, como la ExxonMobil, como la Incana, que es una empresa canadiense, justicia climática tiene mucho que ver, por ejemplo, con detener las causas que están causando el cambio climático. Si queremos hablar de justicia, tenemos que decir cuáles son las causas, por lo tanto, vamos a enfrentarlas. Esto es, por ejemplo, empezar a dejar el petróleo, el gas, el carbón, los tar sands en el subsuelo. Justicia climática también tiene que ver con reparar los daños causados, no solamente reparar a los países y pueblos del sur por los impactos de las desastres climáticos, sino también implica reparar los territorios de los pueblos en donde, por ejemplo, se extrae el petróleo, el carbón, el gas, o se hacen los proyectos de falsas soluciones como red. Entonces, justicia climática simplemente lo que tiene que, lo que significa es que la justicia en este caso sea con los pueblos, pero también con la naturaleza. Entonces, cuando hablamos de justicia climática, tenemos que ponernos en una posición desde donde yo hablo justicia climática. Para los pueblos del ecuador, los pueblos indígenas, en general, los pueblos que vivimos en el ecuador, la justicia climática es para con nosotros, no para las transaccionales ni los gobiernos, sino con nosotros para que se reparen los territorios, para que se reconozca y haya un rezarcimiento de la deuda ecológica y social e histórica, no porque la deuda ecológica no empieza ahora, ya tiene bastantes años, y lo más importante es que la justicia climática también tiene que ver con un rezarcimiento y una restitución de los derechos de la naturaleza que han sido violentados. Muchas gracias. Wow. Gracias, gracias para esta, para competir tan claramente, tan directamente, que no es justicia climática y también lo que es. Para terminar, porque solo tenemos como cinco minutos, pero para terminar, quiero preguntar la misma pregunta a Miriam, para usted Miriam, ¿qué es justicia climática y por qué las perspectivas de las mujeres son tan importantes? La justicia climática, perspectiva climática, para nosotros es muy importante recalcar, comparto con mensaje divón. Hace rato decía que para nosotros, para las mujeres y para los pueblos que resistimos no hay una justicia climática justa. ¿Cómo hablar de justicia climática cuando los occidentes no respetan? No hay respeto, no hay ese respeto hacia la naturaleza, hacia el convivir en el espacio donde estamos. Debe, debe ser justa hablar de sostenibilidad de la naturaleza, hablar de promover una una transición justa a un futuro sostenible y libre de combustibles fósiles que a la base proteja las personas en los países más vulnerables de los impactos del cambio climático. En este caso, no solo los pueblos indígenas estamos exponiendo a esto, sino más bien toda la humanidad, tanto en la ciudad como en la Amazonía, en los paramos, en la costa. Tenemos afectaciones graves de alguno u otra forma nos afectan. Entonces, yo diría que no hay una justicia climática de que hablar cuando no hay quien asuma responsabilidades de los daños que estamos haciendo al espacio de vida donde estamos nosotros. Entonces, yo creo que eso sería de mi parte cuando no hay un responsable que asuma no podemos hablar de justicia climática. Muchas gracias Miriam y quiero tomar esta oportunidad como solo tenemos algunos momentos pero quiero decir muchas gracias a Miriam y Iván para compartir sus experiencias, su conocimiento, su sabiduría. Gracias para compartir esta inspiración pero yo creo que también las razones para defender la naturaleza y un claro testimonio clara que lo que no es la justicia climática pero también una razón muy fuerte de estar en el frente en la lucha para lo que es justicia climática. Voy a cambiar en inglés solo rapidito. I just want to wrap up here and say we don't have time, we don't have time for questions on the webinar but we are very interested in your questions and so we've been collecting them on the question answer and also if you have any other questions that occur to you please please share them with with Beth and she'll share her email in the in the in the chat. I also want to remind you that it's climate climate justice month as as climate action month as as Beth said and please continue to check out Cairo's blogs on the homepage for new content every day and please do take that action right now if you haven't already and signed the e petition calling for increased climate action from from our government and join us next Tuesday for a screening and discussion of of the film women hold up the sky at 7 p.m. I want to take the last couple minutes to thank just for thank yous I want to thank everybody involved and I don't know if everybody can put their cameras on so that I can thank you all I'd like to thank of course Miriam and Yvonne for joining us from Ecuador and again for for sharing with us tonight and thank you thank yous thank you so much um I want to thank Paulina for her um interpretation uh she Paulina has become uh most uh an honorary member of Cairo she's been uh interpreting and translating for us so so much uh we really really appreciate her excellent translation um want to thank Gabriela Jimenez who's behind the scene she's our our technical wizard and she's also the Latin American partnerships coordinator and she's also the creator of the mayor hub and that link has been shared with you in chat and I want to thank Beth uh as well for all this fabulous work that you're doing for climate action month uh and for organizing this this webinar so uh thank you everybody and um yeah that as as as we said we'll be sharing uh the um the recording of of of the webinar and yeah please don't hesitate to send us your questions thank you


The great search brought to you by a fruit engine key lady user powers of engineering to show you were too fine And how to find the part that you're looking for on digikey.com lady Anna. What is a great search this week? Okay? Well, let's go to the overhead So this week Oh, it's actually look can you show the photos? We went to which one the botanical gardens and we celebrated pink And we thought we would Take some photos. It's our nice pink PCB. I just want to show I love to show these photos again And this inspired me today because you were asking like oh, you know, we have these pink PCBs on the overhead This is the pink KB 2040 PCB with the custom pink solder mask from our PCB house. We use I Know PCB way will do prototypes second you can do it Okay You can get protection PCB way, but our PCB house. We've got these custom pink PCBs And you were like, oh, you know, can we change this green LED to be like pink or purple because I you know would look a Lot better than just green right if you wanted to go with the pink aesthetic Which we do love here at a fruit and I thought I was an excuse to show how to get You know custom like weird colored LEDs on digikey and also a lot of people always like oh There's so many elite on digikey and it's like I just want to like Get it to a reasonable amount and then I can pick the color and then how to use that the nanometer selector Also to determine what color you're going to get so even though I didn't end up finding pink exactly I did find something very close. So let's go to the computer and And Let's go to digikey. Okay. So what we're looking for is an indicator LED There's illumination LEDs and those are like really bright like white LEDs for back lights indicators are like what we know You saw on that PCB.  We're not working So we want discreet, which means individual because there's One that are in a raise and there's one that are like, you know pilot light the panel indicators We want individual ones and then I'm going to show you how to pair it down because I particularly want pink But I also was I ended up not being able to find pink. So it's like what was the closest thing I could get So there's a there's a lot of LEDs and I know it can be very tough to find LEDs So the first thing I'll do is I'm just gonna look only for the active ones. It's a quick way of Pairing down about half of them because you know, we don't want ones that are discontinued or unavailable There's also the configuration. So there's some of these are Dual color like they're red and green and you can turn on both to make them amber So they're bi-directional or they have common anode or common cathode If you see common anode or common cathode that means it has to have more than one LED in it Otherwise, it would be a common to it. So what we want is independent Standard and dash, which means like okay didn't get categorized with with that So that'll that'll maybe get rid of a couple thousand more. We don't want like an individual LED The next thing we're gonna look at is I only want surface mount and I only want surface mount Pointing up. So I'm gonna just make sure that I've deselected all the two whole ones And then I'll cut it down by half again You see just you're cutting it down by half half half to get to where you could actually Pick parts because now if you look we're actually getting little surface mount LEDs. So that's it's a lot closer So the next thing is is that they do have color And so you can you can pick out color here another thing you can do because I'll note that some of these are a little They're a little annoying because you're like well You know, what is green yellow versus green like green and green for example green can mean two different things and LEDs It can be like a yellowish green Which is let me try to remember the I don't know if they have the chemistry behind them, but there's like the in-gan in the IMP I don't think they have the chemistry Here how interesting they don't yep, they don't show you but they basically the chemistry I wish they make the LED determines that the color of the LED So some interesting colors like pink particularly there's there's no such real thing as a pink LED Usually it's a white LED that's painted over with like a pink paint And so the white shines through the pink and kind of lights up pink, you know, it's like a it's a painted light bulb So what you might want to do is To hear the lens color is you might want to look at the wavelength peak or the dominant wavelength either one Actually, I'm gonna deselect independence. I think I'm seeing that there's RGB LEDs here. So Let me go back to this and I'm just gonna click standard Because I don't want I don't want the multi LEDs Okay, let me get a couple few so You know blue what does it blue mean versus like ice blue? This isn't where you might want to search by the wavelength so Let's see you can search for like nanometer wavelength Maybe color There's a whole bunch of You know, there's like these Diagrams That'll show you the nanometer wavelength. So if you're looking for something reddish You know, it's gonna be 740 and if you're looking for something like light yellowish you're gonna be like Actually, this isn't very good diagram. Hold on. Let me find a better diagram. Oh This is a better diagram. Okay Yeah, so this is if you want something yellow yellow greenish, it's gonna be maybe like 570 But what if you want like a deep greenish, it's gonna be 525 So let's look at for example like ice blue. That's probably gonna be like 470 or something before 75 So let's go back here cuz I was actually kind of curious about this ice blue color Where was I there you go Ice blue, so let's see what comes up when we search for ice blue Well, it's like one So this is a discreet ice blue LED. It does look like it's a you know White LED with like a maybe a phosphor on top of it and Oh, it doesn't have the dominant wavelength some of them sometimes they don't especially if it's Because it's a white LED and it's covered with a fluorescent so it's actually not a true single color So let's actually look for like a purple so purple or pink LED is gonna be more towards sorry More towards like at the end here. So maybe like 425 You can see here.  Let's see what comes up. So yeah, there weren't a lot of options for pink and purple and the and that the pink They do have and but it's It's unfortunately in this large Package, which it's not for me I mean like this will be a really beautiful pink LED because it's gonna have like this nice Phosphored it looks like it's probably a blue LED with a like a pink orangeish phosphor on top and the color mixes So yeah, this one also won't have a dominant wavelength or pink because it's actually a mix of colors However, this purple LED I feel it's pretty nice and it's fairly inexpensive. It's a marketplace. So it's from another Vendor, but this one does have it's a single In mid or LED so this purple ad is a true like single wavelength color LED So you're gonna get 420 nanometers, which is you know over here past blue or on this one. It's over here purple and Don't forget to also check the data sheets Because the day she could also have some really good info for example, it tells you Also, just verify the wavelength that also might tell you whether it's a The material so in again and so it's it's like they just push that blue What would normally be a blue LED all the way into purple just by doping it and Then the lens is water clear.  Let's see what they call the pink one Let's look at this day sheet, which I didn't look at so I'm curious This one They say it's pink in again in Yeah, so this one it's like they don't they tell you the chromacity Because I guess it's covered, but they don't tell you what it is originally. Oh interesting. It's even been You're doing nice on these So for this one doesn't it doesn't again, you don't get a wavelength because it's it's it's a white painted Cover, it's not a clear lens so In the end I was like if well, this thing I'm a cool logo Did you check out this logo? That's cool. That's Venkel. I wasn't expecting that This is like a Company that Johnny Mnemonic gets his computers from that is very futuristic. I know that's cool. Somebody definitely Went to art. Venkel never never change, please. Yeah, dude. Do not don't get don't get normal Keep it weird. Okay, so this so actually like this one because I actually kind of like the idea of like a pure purple Light coming from this 0603 LED. So I think I'm actually going to go even though this one's pink For it to work on my PCB because I need to be a 603 I'm going to go with this one the CTL a 603 fp. So I'm actually going to try to get a couple samples of this Put it on the pink PCB and see how it looks. It might look really good and that is great search


I love tacos, but I'm always on a diet. Tacos and diet should never be in the same sentence. In Mexico, we realized that by mixing cactus or nopales with the corn masa, we were able to reduce the calorie and carb content. The Whole Foods Fire for Southern California and New York tried the tortilla, they loved it. They brought it immediately and so check this out. I'm sampling the tortillas and someone tries these and they're like, this is delicious. Are you planning to make tortilla chips? And I'm like, wow. And so that very quickly, man. Tielupita evolved into the platform, brother.


One of the key things with invisible layers is I don't want to cut too much shorter in the crown area. One way to make sure that you don't do that is to separate the crown from the rest of the length of the hair. If I'm cutting the left-hand side, I'm gonna start by standing on the right-hand side. I'm going to work diagonal all the way up the head shape just shifting slightly till I end up horizontal. We take our first diagonal parting, a little piece of the pie here. So I pinch this in my hand. I'm going to take my scissor and I'm gonna half close and just slide and glide through. And this is the FSE Precision Scissor. I've been using this scissor now for over a year. I've talked about it a lot. So now because of the triangle shape, the pinching of the hair, you get sort of like an expanded separation on the layering and a little extra depth in the cut. So here we go, another triangular shape. And now I comb it down. Pinch it, start working about that mid-shaft area, half closing as I slide down the hair. Working a little more towards that horizontal, comb it down, pinch it into my hand. Doesn't have to be perfect. Around the mid-shaft, slide and cut through. Now wherever you're cutting is going to be the shortest point. So when I over-direct each of these pieces over, the longest piece that I'm cutting will be what's reaching into the center. The center piece will be the shortest, which is going to create that depth and movement within the haircut. Love the way that pops and looks. It's got that depth, the movement in there and the crown will come over top of the rest. If you wanted to, you could pinch this together and cut it as well. But what I'll do is just kind of layer it softly over top, blending the crown into the rest. So you'll see kind of where those invisible layers are. That's not where I want to cut it. I want to come up here and just clean off these ends. We've cleaned up that crown, got a nice layered haircut, but there's a lot of movement going on the inside of that. Now I want to cut just the baseline perimeter, but I'll just come through.  I've talked about this before in a face frame, but I don't want to come straight up over top of the head and cut it like that, because that'll give me too balanced of layering throughout here. I want the layering to kind of ascend into the back or descend into the back. So I comb the hair up like this over top of the forehead. I'm going to, this is condensed cutting.  So now I've got my line, but no invisible layers yet. The way that I'm going to create some invisible layering is by elevating this up and coming inside and cutting into it just like this. I'll re-comb that, see all that hair that comes out. And if I see a good amount of spacing in there, that works for me. Now I've got a slight little face frame and also invisible layers. The front might be a little bit longer than the back at this point. We haven't cut the baseline yet.


Over 4.2 million people are internally displaced across Ethiopia today. Conflict, climatic shocks and disease outbreaks are forcing more people to flee their homes. In a year, the number of internally displaced people has doubled. Their urgent humanitarian needs are growing and support from the international community must keep pace. With IWEM's multi-sectoral assistance to people in need in Ethiopia, we reached over 3.5 million people in 2021, over 3.6 million people in 2020, and over 2.1 million people in 2019. Despite operational challenges, IWEM remains committed to stay and deliver and is appealing for $129 million. To meet the humanitarian needs of 3 million crisis-affected people across Ethiopia in 2022, please help us continue and scale up our life-saving work.


This study found that self-reported chronic tinnitus is associated with reduced cochlear nerve responses, weaker middle ear muscle reflexes, stronger medial olivocochlear efferent reflexes, and hyperactivity in the central auditory pathways. These results support the model of tinnitus generation where decreased neural activity from a damaged cochlear can elicit hyperactivity from decreased inhibition in the central nervous system.

Thanks for checking out this no spoilers movie review and this one is for Assassination nation a film that actually came out in 2018. So just last year super super new. I got it out through my Netflix DVD service Yes, I keep saying this. Yes I'm still using Netflix DVD service because they have a huge selection that you cannot necessarily get on streaming services. So This film I'm gonna say this up front at the end. I typically do my star rating and it's out of five And it's halves in play. This is a five star for me. This film is Amazing if you have not seen this film go see this film And it makes me feel bad that I didn't see it in the theater because I know some people were out there saying hey This film is really good people need to go out and support it It did not do well in theaters And I think part of the reason for that was that people kind of didn't know what it was I'm not sure that I'm not sure I even saw a trailer for it prior I had heard about it coming out and with the title like assassination nation It's kind of hard to know what the film is going to be and I will say that having just watched it and Obviously doing this review. It's it's a film that it's a lot of genres kind of rolled into one Yes, it would constitute as horror, but it would also constitute as drama It would also constitute as like thriller. It would it's a revenge film. It's got a lot of gore in it It's got a lot of social topics in it It's very smart film and that's one of the other things about this is I know probably a lot of people may not like this film Just because it's very smart. It has a lot to say and it's a very progressive film So that's the other thing is I know a lot of people when they see a film that's trying to tell them something Trying to kind of give you What's the best way to put it kind of give you some lessons in a sense a lot of people don't like that type of thing This film is chock full of those types of lessons. It's actually kind of a look at our society and the hate culture basically that has Developed and that's hate in a lot of realms. It it excuse me It touches so much so for that reason on my phone I actually have a lot of notes on it and they may be kind of like a little bit out of order because I just Kind of do the notes as I'm watching the film So I'm gonna talk about as much as I can but I'm also gonna say like this I can't cover everything I just can't because this film is so chock full of stuff that it just I Would need to watch it a few times I think in order to get everything going on it because there's so much the script is so tight The film is tightly edited. It's extremely well directed. The acting is really good. The writing is amazing The music choices are really good and really go the cinematography is beautiful Everything looks phenomenal sounds phenomenal is phenomenal with this film Which is why I'm giving it a five-star rating, which I don't think I've done a five-star rating for any of my reviews yet But this film is You got to see it. I mean you really do the other thing about what why I think this is maybe not All that popular up front and I do think this is a film. That's gonna become a cult classic For me, it's it's a cult classic right now because it didn't do all that well and I loved it. This was Phenomenal I'm gonna tell a lot of people about this film Obviously here we go. It's a movie review. Please take this send that watch this and send it to other people and say Hey, check out this guy's no spoiler review on this film I am gonna be able to dive pretty deep on this with a lot of themes and everything and not really actually spoil the film Which is kind of a cool thing, but one of the things is this is an uncomfortable film for a lot of reasons It's uncomfortable because it makes you think about things that are ingrained in your own society It's uncomfortable because it makes you think about things that are ingrained as you in you as a human being and Kind of makes you reflect on that stuff It's uncomfortable because it has overt sexual topics and it has a lot of things that a lot of people may just find uncomfortable in general Depending on who you are because there's I mean It's it's interesting because the way the film opens up They have this kind of crazy screen that says like trigger warnings and then they go through like this Quick series of words that flash on the screen that tell you all the potential triggers like gore violence Homophobia toxic mass male ego I'm trying to think of everything. There's so much. There's some homophobia There's so much bullying. That's another big one in this like it just like runs through everything Which I think is an interesting kind of take because I feel like nowadays there are so many like Moments where people have to say okay, this is you know, here's your trigger warning. This is a trigger So for them to kind of like flash it up front It's interesting because it lets you know what you're getting into and it also kind of guide you Into this is what we're trying to get through to you at the same time through through this film So I'm not gonna be able to hit every single one of those topics because it's just so much And this would just end up being like an hour long and like I said, you know, I I would have to watch it A few more times. I like doing there's reviews like initial reaction after it. So all right So like I said, it's about hate culture. It's about hate culture in general Rolls into specifically because it's very online based and social media based as the focus of the catalyst of the actual problem in this film But that's obviously, you know, what is behind Technology and what is behind social media?  They're like, oh, you know, I just think it's fun How is that fun? Like I don't even understand and I know some people like this to be honest I'm not really friends with them They're kind of acquaintances in a sense and that it just boggles my mind how people can be like that Like you're one person it's so two-faced you're one person in person and you're another person behind your computer screen Which obviously it has to do with the fact that when you're Like in the flesh interacting with someone you have to answer for your for what you say and what you do when you're behind a computer screen There's a veil right there and you can hide behind that people don't necessarily know who you are So you can get the satisfaction out of antagonizing someone or putting someone down or pissing someone off And nobody actually knows who you are. They can't attribute it to your actual personality So you really have like I mean in everyone to a degree has an online personality and an in-person personality so this kind of this film actually takes that and kind of says like what happens if that's all meshed together and everything you do online and via technology is exposed and then basically those two Versions of you come together like what does that turn into? What does that end up being so? Sorry, I'm gonna read through my notes. I may have covered some of this already because I just go Like I said a lot of this in this film potentially could Could offend some people or make you uncomfortable I think that's the biggest thing not necessarily like offend but make you uncomfortable And I think that's actually a good thing in this film because of the points It's trying to make you should be uncomfortable because it is Uncomfortable and these things in real life are uncomfortable. I'm just saying but it presents it in such an awesome way Like I said like the film is beautifully shot really well acted extremely well-written Shout out to Sam Levinson by the way the guy who wrote and directed this I will look forward to everything this guy is doing in the future very very nice work So one of the one of the things early on that may turn some Older crowds off is the way it's shot. It's very like frantic and kind of fast-paced some quick shots The way the music is it seems a little music video ask It just has more of a younger audience feel to it It's more it's way more youthful than a lot of people my age and around my age and older When they approach horror are looking for you know, it's a lot faster. It just seems more young It's more like a More like a film that I'd see I'd hear some some people who annoy me saying I don't know those Millennials It's for those Millennials like Yeah, so anyway, just letting you know that It makes a good point about people's desire to have those in their lives as they want them and not actually Accept them the way they are and this becomes clear.  Why should you have to change who you actually are and that's kind of the point one of the many points that this film is making Which I really enjoyed and Then it also kind of makes a point about you're becoming something for social consumption is what I wrote down I mean, it's truly what it is. So it's kind of like what I was talking about before of like having these two use It's you out in public and it's you behind a screen and social media especially with all these people who do You know these trying to get the perfect photo or trying to be the perfect person online and trying to do this or do That or look a certain way So people put a lot of time into that and that's that's making yourself Most consumable like creating yourself for social consumption and not necessarily being who you are like having The flaws, you know, like I mean, I'll give you a prime example right now. It's kind of weird But you know, like I'm balding I'm sure a lot of people can tell that because the way that this that you know The camera shoots like you can see it looking up this way for sure But you know, I the way I get my hair cut There's a way that it's kind of covered a little bit, you know like why shouldn't I feel like I can just kind of Let everything go and it is how it is which you know I don't put a lot of time into like doing my hair or anything So a lot of times you see this like what I could do in this video is I could wear a hat I could do something to kind of cover it up But at the same time, I'm like, you know, it's me, you know Like so I I deal with it a little bit because it obviously is something I am uncomfortable with but I don't I don't go to the extreme of like what's being pointed out in this film of You know finding that perfect picture and setting yourself exactly posing exactly right so you look the best you possibly can I'm not doing these videos to look the best I can I'm hoping that the content speaks for itself and people just looking at me aren't too turned off by the fact that I look The way I do and instead listening to what I'm saying and appreciating it. So just another point there This shows how invested people are in inserting their judgment into what others do with their own bodies Yeah, this is another big thing that's kind of pointing out and this kind of feeds into the hate culture the trolling all that type of stuff where We have a society. We have a culture that that has become especially since the internet like that I feel like that's accelerated this a lot Where people immediately will judge, you know You you see something about a person that isn't It's not you you can't relate to it. That's not the way you are. It's very different to you It's new to you whatever and some people are in this mode now of seeing that and immediately reacting to it Without knowing that person without having context sometimes and just saying I don't like that or that's stupid or that's disgusting Or that's terrible, you know just being Judgmental as a default when Ideally if we really think about it, we should be stepping back and in those moments just saying You know, that's not familiar to me. That's weird to me But that's that's not me like that's that person and that's their life And I don't have anything to do with me Just whatever if you see something you don't really like something that makes you mad Unless it has very negative impact on someone else like someone's being hurt or being bullied or something Like that. You should just Whatever, you know brush it off because it's not you but we've gotten into this mode and this film points that out of just being like I Have the right to react very viscerally to everything without putting much thought into it and extremely Judgmentally and that's nuts At one point in this film they break the fourth wall and they don't really do it again so much It's it's this moment where one of the characters is like oh, I love this song and everyone's like What song and and then she like looks at the camera is like this song and snaps her fingers and then the music starts And it's like an intro for these characters going somewhere and I was like It did it didn't work for me and it mainly didn't work because it's not that type of film It's not the film that's consistently breaking the fourth wall like that having the actors interact with the crowd in a sense It's that one moment and it just felt weird and that's my one small criticism. I would take that out for sure I think it was just too odd But the music that plays works like I said the music and this works extremely well this film takes on the fear of everyone knowing your secrets and Being openly judged something I already talked about but yeah One of the biggest things with this is this this fear that the secrets that you have that are hidden You think through technology are somehow made available to everyone and then what does that do to you?  Mindset like I'm saying society is because it is There's an idea of the older generation wanting to keep secrets and the younger generation kind of wanting to be more open and be free and That comes through in this film. I mean between the generations, you know, it's it's Teenage teenagers, which I don't know if they're actually teenagers but like are supposed to be teenagers. I Mean they look like they could be but then again as I age. I'm a very terrible judge of age I used to be good at it. But as I continue to get older, I cannot judge age. I have no clue. So So yeah, it's kind of this this This extreme difference is set up between the older generation and the younger generation where the older generations like You know, you really need to filter this So you really need to not do this in this situation and not do that in that situation Whereas the younger generations like well, I'm just trying to be me like why should I hide this and You're thinking about this in a totally different context or you're thinking about this in a context that is Archaic it's old. It's kind of saying. Oh, well, this is what it is because that's what society's told me for so long like one of the main things they focus on in this is kind of sexuality and nudity as as it relates to sexuality. There's kind of a point made in it of People look at a nude picture and they immediately think it's sexual when it may not very it may very well Not be sexual at all like the intent of it was never sexual. It's just a nude body. And so it's that kind of Point that they're trying to make is that these things are not mutually exclusive Every time you see nudity it isn't sexual Maybe to you you may want it to be sexual, but that doesn't mean it is sexual or at least the intent of it When that person was taking that picture or making that video or whatever It may very well not have been intended to be sexual And that's the point that's made here And that's the point that's made between the young and the old because that's a common occurrence Where the older generations look at nudity and sex and stuff like that and see it as extremely taboo Now as generations pass as we get more new and new generations Things start to loosen up more especially with things like social media where you are kind of encouraged to share things to Be a little bit more of yourself, but it's also very judgmental at the same time. So It's kind of this catch-22 there But that was extremely interesting of these opposing younger versus older and their ideas sets and being so different And it's true. I think it's true to life. I really do The troll culture and American tendency to see something online and take action Get angry without knowing the truth. They're having context. So I already talked about this a little bit But this also kind of crosses into even like seeing articles or seeing headlines Which is way more common that people don't read the articles. They only see headlines Which a lot of times headlines are misleading. I can tell you for a fact. I used to work in Journalism I used to work for a newspaper way over ten years ago and Yeah, I can tell you there are misleading headlines so But there are a lot of people who online when they see an article They'll just read the headline and move on and make an assumption about it. Well, you're not getting the context You have no clue what the actual story is there. You have no clue What it really even means and you have no clue if what you read is accurate or matches up with the Text of the body of the article so this kind of crosses over to human to humans as well like when you see a picture of someone online or when you see them post Something online you have a visceral immediate reaction to it and it's a judgmental one typically and You don't know that person a lot of the times unless they're very good friends ears in which case you do But a lot of times you don't know who that person is you have no context of what were they thinking when they did this What was their intention necessarily? Which is which also speaks to why texting is so bad as opposed to being on the phone with someone because there's no Inflection that people can get so there are oftentimes in my life and in other people's lives where Text just texting it leads to an issue because people read into it something that's not Intended and it's one of those issues of seeing something and not knowing the context of it So this specific way I was talking about articles, but you know it crosses into many things like I'm saying here But yeah, that's another thing they hit on is this sounding like dense this film is dense There's so much and these types of films Very enjoyable for me I love when I have to just like dig in and like pull things out of these films and and just like there's Thing after thing after thing to recognize is great It touches on openness and sexuality Yeah, that's what I was already kind of talking about that about the young generation versus old generation With nudity and sex and stuff like that and actually, you know The younger generations become more free with talking about sex with sexual depictions things like that And then this also kind of touched on tied to that the whole thing of like slut shaming where it's kind of this issue where if you are openly sexual or you are sexually active And talk about it then people are like oh you're a slut instead of just being like that's your choice And this goes back once again to being extremely judgmental not knowing that person's life not knowing the context of what's going on And like I was saying before one of those things where if someone's talking about that you just be like, okay You know, that's not me. That's your life. Whatever How does that impact you it doesn't why should you care? You shouldn't And that's the point just let it go.  This is there's this one scene in this film There are many really good-looking scenes in this but there's one scene in particular where I really perked up And was like the camera work on this is ridiculous. It is amazing. So there's a scene where they're Shooting it from outside of a house through multiple windows, and they just keep panning and like following What's going on in the house on two different levels and outside of the house as well, and it looks Phenomenal that is amazing camera work. It's very creative. It's very interesting. It grabs your it grabs your attention in that In that moment as well. It's just it's amazing and the fact to like get the flow of that and keep the scene Coherent and interesting with all the different things going on Not easy to pull off and it just it's amazing. It looks so good.  It is 100% worth it. I loved it When watch this again, I really do it's so good. It is so good It makes you think so much. It is smart It is in your face and and for the horror fans out there I know there are a lot of horror fans who are like, I just I like good kills. I like good gore There is good gore. There is and at one point this basically turns into a siege film So if you're a fan of siege films, which you usually have a lot of gore and violence and kills It's in there for you.

Hi everyone, my name is Steph. This is Little Bookish Teacher and welcome or welcome back to my channel. Today I am going to start sharing some of my children's picture bookshelves which sort of start over here and then I have another full bookcase on the other side of my couch and I sort of started filming this bookshelf tour a little while ago when I did a tour of my First Nations Indigenous Picture Books which are all across here and I thought what I would do every now and then is sort of dive into my bookshelves by author. I do organise my picture books by author's surname because I have so many of them it's a lot easier to find things when I need them because quite often I'm jumping in and out of things all the time as I'm either recommending them to you guys or using them for work or whatnot. So we're going to be kicking off this bookshelf tour with authors whose surname begin with A which is the first little section just down here. One of the first books on this shelf is The Rainbow Hijab by Amron Abdi and this is a book about Amira who loses her very favourite hijab and she's obviously very sad by this and spends a lot of time looking for it. It is an absolutely gorgeous book. I also have Hold on Heart by Sarah Acton. There is Busy Beaks by Sarah Allen which is an absolutely gorgeous non-fiction book all about Australian birds and then the bulk of my A shelf is actually Pamela Allen who is a very famous very popular long-standing Australian children's author who wrote things like Who Sank the Boat? Is Your Grandmother a Goanna? Shh little mouse. Grandpa and Thomas and Grandpa and Thomas and the Green Umbrella both of which were CBCA. I think they were both book of the year you know one with Grandpa and Thomas was Book of the Year and Grandpa and Thomas and the Green Umbrella was shortlisted. There's Fancy That. I wish I had a pirate suit which is such a fun little story. Inside Mary Elizabeth's house Herbert and Harry, Daisy Allsorts about a very clever dog, a lion in the night, the bear's lunch, black dog, Bertie and the bear, Mr Archimedes Bath which does have some very cheeky pictures in it which is quite a good math science text because it's all about capacity. The Pear and the Pear Tree, Waddle Giggle Gargle which I absolutely love because this is about a family who have to travel to and from their house to their various locations like work and home in the library every day passing under the tree of a magpie who has just given birth and so is swooping and so they come up with many many different ways to try and stop the magpie from swooping them as they walk and past. There's Clippity Clock, there's also Belinda and Pamela Ellen also wrote the Mr McGee books so I've got Mr McGee and the Big Bag of Bread, Mr McGee and the Perfect Nest, Mr McGee and the Biding Flea, great rhyming texts and also the original Mr McGee. Now some of these books are quite old and so they are probably a little bit out of date or maybe no longer as PC as they were say 20 years ago but they are really great rhyming texts. If you're going to use them just make sure you read through them beforehand to make sure they're appropriate for your context but you know some really lovely stories in there. Highly recommend Waddle Giggle Gargle, it's also great for Automata Pia. And then there are only two more books in my A section so there is One Woolly Wombat by Kerry Argent which is quite a popular children's counting book. It does feature all sorts of Australian animals as well as short little rhymes to go along with the number and then there is also Sonam and the Silence by Eddie Ears which is another really gorgeous book and is also beautifully illustrated. So this one is set in Taliban ruled Afghanistan and it's about our character Sonam hearing music and finding music in a walled garden which is a very big change to what she's used to. This one is very much like a fable and is just a wonderful read. So that is my A section and I will hopefully be back next month with my Bs. My B section is actually quite large because it takes up the rest of this shelf with the A's and then at least two full other little squares so that one could be quite a long one or I might have to break it into two parts. If you'd like to hear more information about any of the specific books that were mentioned in this video feel free to let me know in the comments. I'm happy to include them in videos in the future, otherwise feel free to leave any emoji that starts with the letter A. Be creative, see if you can find something. I hope that we're on the world just staying safe and healthy and I will see you in my next video. Bye everyone.
