welcome to portal. your gateway to the very best to volunteer there as online content that you may have met. a new program that this through our platforms makes the connections and presents a digestible, seen each the award winning online content on their audience portal with me sound or gotten on out 0. me me. my name is christina. i am a writer and a grade lawyer special crate lawyer. i am very lucky to be able to do 2 things that i love at the same level of intensity. my son baldwin is greatly misunderstood.

mice and baldwin is full of hope. is full of broken, sad people, but is also full of happy, industrious, resilient people. my son baldwin is involved stories. and those are the stories that i want to tell who's in the i love the archives because the kind of stories i write a sit in the past. and because i'm a write off really fiction. i want my story to reflect accurate fact, for example, acuity is in my most recent level, out of darkness shining light is the story of the african companions of david livingston, and the journey that they made, carrying his body for over 9 months from what is now northern ambia to what is now

the east coast of tanza, near i wanted to flip the story, returned the gaze and tell the story from the perspective of the africans, and not the 3 of the white explorer, the missionary david livingston. so i had to spend a lot of time at indifferent archives around the world. and i found an incredible amount of treasure here in the national archives. history is always told from the perspective of the great men, whether it's david livingstone or civil john rose all robot mcguffey. i feel that my responsibility as, as well when writer is to tell there's involved when story in a way that it hasn't fully been told before. and i plan to do that with every book that i write me. we're going to,

we're going to the hype, 14. yeah. i'm setting up an entry office because i can write at home. but i like the illusion of having a job to go to, especially when i'm writing. and right now i'm facing as self imposed deadline. i need to finish a manuscript by the end of the year the i decided on that i wanted to be a writer. but i couldn't see how, it's only when i read it and it was book nervous condition when i was already in law school, that i realized that a black and white woman could reagan novel in english because she was the 1st person to do it. so by the time i read her and for getting other, you know, 20 morrison alice walker and other black,

a female i was already in law school and loving my subjects of law. so i thought to myself, i can always be arise. but i still want to be a lawyer at the time i wanted to solve, solve the middle east crisis. when i was in 40, i fell in love with international trade, little back. it's been a great background. i have a conference call. it's a panel discussion for the international bar association. this isn't what we're discussing, major tree just to that. i've been going on in the world in the us and china. ok. hello. how are you? hi, can you hear me stuck in this conference call? i'm worrying my head as international trade lawyer. there's also a price. what about, what's one of the passions? so the theme of my conversation, my part of the conversation is,

is that african thing when the elephant fights, if the graph means to be the don't develop them and round. but only very few areas have been agreed on. and we are feeling the effect in the developing countries because the attention is focused on the trade the me, it's easy to before believing that everything is normal. you know, people have their coffee morning. she had the queen of hard to kind of thing, but was across the road life just change the with

the so this is somebody with the largest festival market in the country. it's also the place that is for many people who come to the city from elsewhere, the 1st point of contact for me, it was many, many years ago. i think it was about 4 years old. when i 1st came, somebody and the bus terminal from all rural village to live in a township called glenora. and probably nora within most of the 3rd of the independent id say my levels must okay, cool thing about gordon did anybody? the $1.00 coaches got just talking to my apple running the

with my 1st chemo. it was received negatively by media is above way. i had a newspaper article in the herald, and the headline was 2 days. judas, iscariot, aquino, gaza. it created the impression that i was and anti government, and therefore, i'm tease them bubbly, right? once you read my words, you realize that i'm just talking about the ordinary everyday life or involve is influenced by acts and div and one of the great men for example, in my food broken rules, i deliberately did not mention the president name one because i wanted to say he doesn't matter if the people i'm writing about the vendor, you know,

the magistrate police moment. so i'm standing at the top and rock and roll, which is one of my favorite is the road that connect to the famous people funding and because street that is written that you see with memory, it's a cell which the pardon me, quantum came and talked to the flag of the united kingdom. we have the subtlety of headquarters. we have the magistrate court and it's actually for that reason that i wrote a book called rock and roll, which looks at how important this is and all the different institutions that are on it. the me so the history of just the thing is imbedded in the team. so the roadway on is

actually told from the indigo, but the pavement to say gordon avenue. this is what i find so fascinating because we're such a young country only 40 years old. so we keep flashing into history everywhere we me. if it is silver, what, what do you have in the school? go to cape all, my gosh. yes. and i went up river. oh, i told him all this is interesting. the law from onto chris. chris went to the deja in 1911 of the and the 2nd one before i was able at independence. and so i have very strong memories. awful, deja and i went to school 1st. deja in a segregated township school and then more to the suburbs often dependent

on long standing customers. sure, sure. our okay. my memory of an independence but with a child i largely happy one. but of course i recognize that not everybody has those memories because a lot of very dark things were happening in the country. many of which we as children were simply not aware of. and it was really that was the period with this already. terry and treat that in, but you know, when you're busy swimming in your swimming pool or, you know, going to the library reading in advice and you're aware of all these development to my shame is something i realized only when i went to law school and we were reading judgment about so horse doesn't include dealer is much and then you put aka. so how long was what was happening here? the

in november 2017. there was a what is called is involved with military assisted transition from the mcgovern regime to watch. we hope to be in your dispensation. and this was one of many times, not the 1st time that the military has directly intervened in interval in politics . and in respect we should all have been very worried. as such as such a direct intervention, a budget after decades of more garbage rule. after 37 years, people had just had enough and were desperate to believe in change the ah,

on paper, it seemed like we're taking you derrick and for the 1st time in many years would have an election that was internationally observed. the circumstances were extraordinary. and really involved the whole nation, people marched on it weren't sure such a moment of happiness. they'll probably re engagement with formerly hostile nations . and that's what got me excited because i am passionate about open trade and investment. ah, i got the sense that maybe this wasn't watching him from early on, but you keep thinking, oh no, it will get better. we'll get. we'll get better. but i think by about one of the, one of the soldiers shot people on the street. that's when i realized that this might actually not go anywhere because. ready there are 2 very willing to use the course is element of the

news. ready we have into the personal garbage and there's a real central trail. it's sad to feel and to experience because we haven't really wonderful opportunity to move our country in a different direction. and i'm very fearful that we have missed that chunk. oakdale hunger, nero drunk, know beans in my board, and cool thing. we can't do bins anymore. but it's very formated with i'm very well, i'm a journalist, he's the best and publish writer. why does that even mean? it's like roger federer before he won a grand slam. he was the best player not to win a grand slam. and that's you of the fit raj. a federal involve in writing. all of that release focuses on the economy. so there is no way you can write about

it, but i mean, writing on politics and writing a lot. politics means 2 things that you get arrested or you have to send for yourself as and been any big change. all the change that we want to see about what that was, what that's cool was was just so extraordinary. we only imagine that there was a real shift in policy in just the way government, you know, treat people because people will part of that transition. the, those that those marches industry consolidated with fellow stakeholders of our thing. you know, people have every reason to be angry because no one wants to feel used. you know, no one wants to feel that they were simply instrumental in power attention game between fraction. so we're going to do the 1st

official table or even a minute play, which is called black sunlight, the se, about the very controversial is when right. and the manager in the i number is just returned from expo an exit of 8 years in england. and just come home independent symbolic way. but unfortunately is true very much. looks like deja i think i'll put the money to god. good gosh. you know great. the money to the diction doesn't fit in in england. doesn't fit in in. and bob way, he's a young man who wants to fight off off of colonialism, but he kind of has this belief such as culture is somehow inferior. ok, and we go black family plays react by not god,

x 11. so every international airport isn't bob. good morning, ladies and gentlemen need to place that he, him, it was like you, him 77 from london get it have landed up stage, right? stumbled a young man of about 34 all his mach deborah appearance, these nonetheless something disheveled in his appearance. this is done with the manager. wow. wow. i don't believe it. i just don't believe it sold very. i'm told by that you know, the 1st thing i did when i got off the plane was to keep the ground just as uncomfortable as you would expect. not so easy on the lips, but still i want to do it again. it is not for me to find that it is not permitted to kiss grown me when he comes home. the benefit thing that you encounter these are, this is not allowed. this is not allowed because it's not allowed. you're not

allowed to smile, you know, to be happy yet. but if like, living in a cage of some thought, you know, and then 54 to bob with you in the twenty's, almost like that. believe me limitations or that of like $40.00 to move expression for them of thought they do more movement. freedom of questions, you know, just everything is booked books, books book you know the oh oh oh oh okay, thank you so much. so i am going to see can i do to who is highly regarded when lawyer he's also the vice president of the love with me opposition

party. the in the the, the 1st thing he did when you pull up the office was to order the 1st the book and then the funny or the, i'll probably do this book and the last block to them what i see the one way i did the introduction i want to find it. yeah. yeah. and i and i have known each other since i was a more students because it was all of my tutors in contract law. he was very fierce and we were all afraid that she was going to fail us. but we became very good friends with a meditative gloomy up at the why aren't you a writer? i think if i'm a lawyer, you know, that's what i do. and that's my fit, loving i think could give me a gift. but i, you know, i would love to write in waco fiction. what i d, as my main character will be,

will be a woman. and what is totally in my head or for this to see deliberative, tuggle is not fully told is but fully told. and i think one of the things that estimates me what the woman in the liberation cycle. i think she what's several was in the me was no jesse him smith. i think the total price of abuse person in the class. yeah. yeah. yeah. and then when she gets into independence and she was an outsider, i optimistic or pessimistic about the future. i have to do optimistic, i have to go to music because there's no cases that has been in my only why is that we normally that normal? so we don't panic anymore when we don't, we don't need anymore. i think that the we are in a moment people one change in i'm afraid to say that in my opinion,

if we continue with this notion when people come but he's even crippling the ruling back. even people in the state, i think we're going to have another project. and for me, what makes me sad is that to establish this economy to turn around this, he couldn't keep so yeah, i would think it is not the actual issues, which i believe it's not to be growth rate because we can out it's not even trusting much more dealt with that because we can do a closer than that because we have the culture and we don't have that great rest week. i think you would do. we have our own one as well as to do the institution to come to education or social services to, to, to rebuild our coach all don't, don't, they don't take generations to, oh, oh i
