ah. with hi emmy. ok, welcome to the bonus edition of the stream. it's a show that brings you the kind of conversations i half of the guess after the live broadcast. coming up the to museum, singer songwriter, m o moth luthey. but let's start with classical music. the 1st time since the metropolitan opera house was founded a 158 years ago. it is stating a production when african american composer by shut up in my bones is the story of

a young man's journey from hardship to success. it was co directed by camille brown . the libretto is by cathy lemons, and the music was composed by the celebrated jazz musician and composer. turns blanch out his tats, i wanted this abra and everything that i write to sound natural and feel natural coming all to boys. so i would read the libretto out loud, and when i would read the libretto out loud, i would hear the rhythms of that. i would hear they did it up here and see that would start to inform me what the melody should be. what the piece would be, then i would just take it from there and then i would have these workshops with a certain person who's on this screen with me right now. and then they would tell me about how i ought to kill their voice by writing too many high knows well that and pass through that set and present like the speak. leave you a little ah,

yes i me. no, i love, i love seeing it here. it is music on my nose there. yeah. oh no. you compose a song i use like the in those or you say i got a thing, but you would have our it's favorite. got to say something, let's say something and 3. 0 is, is that, is there like a terms you can tell us, you can tell us this is our secret, this is the, the extra stream extra was, was that a sort of a one? 012 opera conventions that you looked at and then threw away. or did you just know it? because i knew that your dad loved oprah music. so it kind of seat in to you. as you're growing up on what we're part, part of it was the fact that i had my my father loved and i heard a lot of oper going up at the not a part of a was, you know, i just love to form myself. and the main thing is you want to tell

a story. so when it comes time to tell a story, there's a certain kind of, of construction that you, you want to have to do just a normal beginning, middle, and the end, you know, and to karen's point, that also goes into how you want to write for the voices because you want to make sure that those voices ad pivotal moments have that registered or have those melodies that could really allow them to blossom and really express themselves. and when karen did, the 1st production of a fire should have been my balance. she helped me a great deal in understanding just that in terms of like howling to save certain phrases for certain parts of the oper to make sure that there can be a climax in the piece. yeah. at michael you do you know, up for so so, so while, when you look at new purse, being written, one of the comments that we had on youtube was the opera shouldn't be an old awful issue continue to develop. sometimes we get stuck in the,

our art form. what are the trends that you're seeing right now? what gives you how, what are you excited about? oh, well, couple of things cuz i think it is, a oper does rely on the, on the can't remark. it relies, the industry just relies on the certain shows certain composers and that's part of it for me, i actually thing and maybe you know my bias as a director for, for, is that i think what's also interesting to me is when we're re imagining the classics and re imagining the canon and re imagining. how can we tell those stories in a new and exciting way in a way that, that is palatable to people. we want to see the shows. and then i'm also really excited people like terence and people who are actually like writing in a way that sort of adding to the story, telling us that it's not. we're not, you know, going into

a place that's completely different, but we're actually widening the table. we're letting more voices at the table. we're not getting rid of puccini in order to get to add turns blanchard, but we're actually adding turns blanchard, to the story tongue that we get to tell me how, what are you franken? i'm thinking of 2 things and i love harris and i know he was the court, me a saying this. i wish there was more discussion around casey demons and camille as well because they may history too. ready and here is, knows this, that i'm super, super, super supportive of women in africa, particularly diversity behind the stage, you know, gender and race and inclusive. and i wish that we saw more on black women outside of just being singers. and, but it would actually, creator than the way we see in other art forms that we see in literature the way we see in our dance, you know, i, it also makes us believe that we have,

we have 2nd careers outside of the singing. yeah. you know, so i wish, and i'm not here as a, as many, many women in his life, you know, and i know, you know, you know, like, i wish i wish man and, and to that. but i know you mean that, and i'm like that are running my life and how a category. well, the law is as it should be. tyrants obviously. i know, but to her point she is exactly right. one of the things that i've been screaming about is how much of a genius, camille brown is i've been saying and over and over again. you know, chasing lemons has also been my sister for a number of years. we've worked together and there, there would be no far should have been my boss if it wasn't for how beautiful a brutal she took that story, that most people couldn't see an opera and she created something extremely beautiful. she also created 2 characters, a loneliness and destiny. oh no. and they manifest themselves into

a 3rd character grutter. you know, so it goes without saying that their contributions are huge, you know, and to them and to the development of this production. and we need to celebrate them just like we need to celebrate anybody else who's been a part of this production, the young kids that have been a partners production who amazing singers the chorus. tell people all the time. one of the things that's been blowing me away about this thing is that you don't know what it feels like to walk into a room or 40 people and be the only person i can't say it. ha, ha, yeah, i, i, he, i do know that feeling that back was got that when you will, the compose into that. so again, you're musician, you, you have all the skills. wonderful to be surrounded by that talent just, just for watching the clips. the videos from listening to you talking about it. i really need to see this. all right, now i may not be able to see it at metropolitan,

but i know it's going to come to atlanta. it's gonna come to see, see, this oper is going to go rod and run and run and run and run how exciting old is going to be. so i will also is going to be some will curves on october 23rd and $7.70 countries around the world terrace. blanchard, a michael mohammed and karen sat, bringing that passion for opera to the stream. fire shot up in my bones will be simile costs in cinemas around the well this month. go to met upright dot org for details. and now to some disturbing video filmed on the cray sharp bosnia border in europe, there are countries are so determined to keep out asylum seekers that they beat harass and chase them away from their borders. these push backs are legal and brutal, but some views who are watching the stream on youtube this week suggested that european countries can't save everybody and no visa equals no entry i chevy

sentiments with the guess and i post. so discussion. we're nothing enough that these people don't have these up, but they can not have visa because they ashlyn seekers. by definition, there do not have the legal. so i think that may be a point that, that we should emphasize. if we want to talk about law, you might know, i mean how people enter accounted as a matter whenever, when they seek, i don't know, but frankly to look at the broader feature. migrations as always received any sort of mankind. if he's a mankind, he's made a migration, so you know, we have not seen as an invasion as we are seeing. i mean, something that has always existed and people always have tried to call and it's always over at the, you know, and we should rather try to be proactive and try to manage these, these phenomena. i've been trying to count them as it is happening now. and call

me i think what, what sticks with me in it's in the last 3 years is also a lot of it is happening increase on both now and these countries are they had the worchester 27 years ago. and many of the people that you meet there, like the locals say like, like we understand the refugees and the asylum seekers because we were in the same and in the same role just it really a short while ago. so also not forgetting that this is something that's mazama said that this has always been with us, that people need to flee from somewhere because their homes are destroyed. and yeah, like that for sure. you don't have a visa if your house is destroyed or if you can't go back where you have your drawer with your documents. like how should you have a visa? if you, if you leave with your children on your arms, just out of your country like that,

you need to go somewhere and just ask for protection. and people who should really not forget that this is something that has always been happening to certain mom to certain groups of people. maxima, i feel like the way countries in europe are dealing with asylum seekers has got more to do with politics than empathy. because it wasn't that many decades ago, when most european countries were refugees, most europeans were refugees because of the 2nd world war. that's correct. not only monster peons. what if it is because of over a 2nd lower to was for war. but also many europeans, economic migrants, i mean, the voice 3 of south and europe is made of economic migration. you know. and now that the stands that have change in pro read things, improve the in the european union. now people tend to quickly to forget what the

grandfathers did. i mean, and let's be clear history on file that we would have more privately with these are the parents who are traveling exactly the same way. like most people are doing to me, is that a political solution? i mean i mean, it is making the problem i think may be 2 points on that. the 1st one is remembering that the vast majority of refugee leave in low and middle income countries and compare it to you know, who lives in europe. europe is only receiving cab yet very small share of, of this refugee. so that's may be a 1st point. as for whether we can find a political solution to the situation. i mean i, i think this is yet to be seen. the issue of migration and ashley has become so sensitive. and since you have $1516.00, i would say the situation is getting worse. after every crisis of perceived crisis like that, really,

there is this perception that we can not managed your rivals. and this is making really difficult to find a solution at you level for, you know, a common armnaya manage solution to, and the hosting is people, i mean, we've had that old discussion on silicon already and we're seeing like every time there is this list deadlocks and between between human mistakes. i am not sure if they, there's a solution in sites. i susie's problem, what is your, is like at operational levels. this is where things can change. this is where, you know, independent human right monitoring mechanism can be set up. and also this is where, you know, as i mentioned, see, can be more active to make sure than when asked when he could get to the country. they, you know, they're adequate reception mechanism. they are selling claim are being processed in due time. and so that prop people access to, to fair process, when they get to europe, the co, you saw up close the violence against the silencing case. where do you think that

comes from? because it wasn't just a few bad apples as some of the governments authorities was i just missed a few of them. it's systematic. it's organized, a fun gate. i like that's beyond prejudice. now. no. and it's also even orchestrated. so i think that, i mean, where does this come from? it's, it's for me, it's for us to difficult to say if there's even an order to use, to use this wireless. what we know that the wireless that we filmed this to a medium violence or it sounds already so cynical, but there have been cases of sexual harassment, of like we, you torture are elements of torture. so we are pretty sure, and especially in how widespread this is practice, this are that,

that there are commands and that there are special groups that are known for doing a very good job at bidding people up because it all is about the motivation. so what they're trying to do is to, to give all they can that they don't dare to come back. you can watch the full episode about the illegal tactics being used on asylum seekers and refugees in europe at stream. but algebra era dot com. ok. full confession here, when i prepare for election shows, i do a lot of reading and then i just cross my fingers that the guess we book really good at explaining domestic issues to an international audience. this after iraq's october election, the stream brought together a panel that did a brilliant job of unpacking iraqi politics. so any luck, they're not, we don't have just 2 parties like there is in the united states or there isn't. in britain, britain for example. we have several parties,

the voting process also is different on how they work for parliament members. and it in different than how it's a direct vote for the president. and also because we have a prime minister, we don't have a president, that's another difference. and then we have the local governments also with but that's that also that also is very different. over the past 15 years, a lot of the both both has been identity based. we do see that happening in the united states today. however, in iraq, it took some times of violent, it was very violent, and we see that also sort of shifting. so unless the international audience understands that they would not really see how significant these elections have been. when newcomers actually broke that chain of, of the dominance of the mainstream, political parties in 2 very important, very sacred provinces and south iraq. and also the importance of the islamic community kind of being defeated with instantly politicians, assuming politics. that's all very, very important. that would, that's a different that i would focus on. all right, of you a 2nd to have here because you are a politician. you've experienced iraq politics. how would you describe it from the

inside? no repeating whatsoever shows mansion, but from an economic perspective in the air state patronage very much controls the economy. so everything here in iraq is in the state own state manager state controls or which is very much it limits the possibility and, and the opportunities for private sector to flourish. m m. ringback and they, and i care, for example, the, the, the, the government is the primary operator of everything was in a free market economy is when we could see the government's regulator, a policy maker, and a tax collector. anything but a and operators or we don't like, for example, the united states produces more oil than iraq and saudi arabia put together. but they don't have a national oil company where in iraq, if we want to talk about,

for example, privatization and introducing the market economy and so on. this is a big red line that we need to explain to the traditional mindset. that's it, very much controlling everything. well, if a young person said to you, i want to be a politician and that were in iraq. what would you honestly tell them? i would honestly advise them to read more about politics and an old democracies that's basically didn't develop democracy across the world before suggesting anything. i still remember during the days of the protest that young people approached me and saying that we would like to produce similar to the french revolution. so i told them, did you read anything about the history of the french illusion? democracy didn't come in the day after there was

a dictatorship and bloodshed and so on. and it was going to be a journey of 20250 or so really need to think and a different way and much smart have them to pass. so i would advise them to read about what's happening across the world before improvising any solution from local mindset, the big political party, they are on their very organized and disciplined in the way they continue to have influence and power. i also know just as a citizen and being based here very much about religion and try how influence on, on politics. and you can ask any, any citizen, any person, and young people here, there's a lot of influence coming from regional countries. and sometimes we feel like we are ruled by a neighboring country. so i think that or the

young people, we always feel that you need to belong to a certain political party or institution or group to be able to thrive politically . so, but the young generation are bringing a lot of change. i see there's also back in a day as a courtesy woman. i used to have so much fear of anything coming out of the credit region because the i'm still reminded of a time of how i used to flee from, from the war that i experienced. but the crisis that happened now, especially women, showed that they could really be capable and, and take home the crisis and brought a lot of women from all of the different provinces and city together. and we kind of found ways of to reconcile. and so we have new conversations. i have activist friends from back that from muscle, from sin john,

from money and do have me meet more, we gather we do activities. so the whole conversation around influencing politics or change and policies and laws, especially with very close to my hard like finding ways to, to and gender based violence in the conversation is moving forward. it's shifting. i feel like the young people are just bringing it towards a new way, a new generation and you wrote and so there was definitely so much hope for a less complicated politics. like the way it goes for people like me, it's still very complicated and we still do our best to understand it and we can't, but there are social media and then each other. thank goodness for social media.

finally, one of the streams most memorable music gas return for a chat via instagram his m will miss lucy, that she is in singer songwriter talking about her latest project. as a woman who is supposedly a feminist, i haven't really cooked her. so much of that in my own kitchen i, i just had this realization that i wasn't really offering so much space for other female voices. and as a female voice, it always try to take more space throughout my career. i felt that it was time for me to give back and to also receive but from a different source. because throughout the many years i was performing in creating and producing albums. i must, exclusively worked with, with man,

with man. and i decided that it was time for me to explore female creativity and female sisterhood. and i just started reaching out to many female producers. and also i had the big motivation that everybody kept telling me that it was impossible. they was just very hard that most of the people i was asking didn't know any female producers. so i decided to that's, that's really depressing. you in the music because he said people you are asking didn't know female with jesus. yes, yes. and i even asked, i am talking about people. yeah. in the music is about the, you know, on the scene people who are radio programmers and i'm, i'm sure they're coming from a, from a good place. they're not just trying to sabotage anybody. but that's, that's where we are, because even myself, before anybody else, i just, any,

any time i had the idea of reaching out to somebody, i would always find a lot of my mil producers or musicians. and i mean, i love all the partners and all my collaborators and i still collaborate with them . but i just felt that i, i, it was the time for me to start taking some action. and i got even more motivated after all the complications and obligations get coming along the way because also a lot of female, we tend to not trust each other enough internet trust ourselves. as you know that it's people who have a voice and we can accomplish so much and we are currently going. ringback to publish even more together and he might sound like a cliche, it might sound like cute in cheesy, but it's, it's, it's not, it's not that simple. and i found myself really supportive in

a way that i haven't felt that before. and i found myself creating and interacting in ways i haven't interacted and created before. i move my thing, you see on a spam live wrapping up a shaday. thanks for watching phoenix. ah, ah, ah, a planet is approaching a tipping point in the lead up to the cop 26 climate summit. al jazeera showcase is program dedicated to one veiling the realities of the climate emergency witnesses green films documenting the human experience on the front line planet at the way,
