trades. of. weeks extravagant outfits and glitter glitter glitter. anything against prejudice called cable life. recognition. of stars the big stage. starts from a seventy's w. . keeping hong kong's democratic voice alive from taiwan. that's the location for a pro-democracy magazine. exile difference from the magazine make to hong kong's political future under china. the people forced into caves to escape violence the reality in the taliban stronghold west.

i'm british welcome to news glad you could join us we begin in taiwan which has become the new home for thousands of hong kong has political persecution at home according to government figures more than 10000 residents permits were issued to people from hong kong last year alone many of them escaping beijing's crackdown the democratic freedom that taiwan provides has also allowed dissidents to do what is now unthinkable in their former home publish the democratic views and ideas. printing in progress this is the 2nd issue of flow ha a quarterly magazine knowledge by hong kong activists only have this year as

a forum for hong kong issues but it can't be published in hong kong and the beijing streak only and national security is all so everything a stand in democratic taiwan. has been very supportive of it and we've mentioned hong kong the civil societies of the 2 places are deeply connected we've received a lot of help from taiwanese design is printers engineers and scholars without their support we would not have been able to get the logistics down if the video musical portrait. of these activist chung mean yan is the only one on hong kong or on the editorial board he coordinates the layout and printing along with hong kong and designers and taipei by participating the designers can never return to hong kong but they feel obliged to pay the price. it's so ironic that we can talk about hong kong in hong kong right now as a hong kong living abroad it's my duty to make good use of the freedom of

expression that my fellow people no longer have and speak out for them. in chinese the magazine is called to be water as a last of the inspired by martial arts legend bruce lee and adopted by hong kong protesters to be flexible and formless in the face of beijing's crackdown on the pro-democracy movement in 2019. members of the editorial board all outside hong kong including well known campaigner in exile sunny turn he says the publication is a concrete connection with his homeland and a new form in the struggle for democracy. it's an act of resistance to tell the regime that we will never give up. although your standards from printing political thoughts we will still find ways to do that. we will keep doing that and we will make sure that hong kong is never die. when the

magazine was launched in january probating media named the group as troublemakers for publishing hong kong independent spokes due to security concerns hong kong readers can only get the electronic version while hard copies are so damn taiwan bookstores and overseas subscribers that quite buy under the national security law we must expand our definition of hong kong way of hong kong only belongs to hong kong it would die very soon as beijing tightens its control over the city so hong kong must be you know not only to hong kong but also to the global community so and we should nourish hong kong in places where there is freedom and hopefully return that strength to hong kong. as thousands of hong kong is free that island flow h.k. is working hard to keep the spirit of community wherever the home is. joining ours

hong kong activist and editor in chief of flow h.k. sunny sunny welcome what exactly does flo educate print. actually. difficult this cost and they have had no longer discuss call it was. the moment to discuss street of any democracy i don't want to have. by. what are you hoping to achieve with the publication of floyd. if you see a home call and this is if you're already trying to implement and introduce something rippin washing education good not to touch a day in touch and it's our next generation and we do not want that our extended vision forgets about all his she forgets all about our identity and our seem of fighting for liberty and democracy and that's why we oversee all of us we home

called osgar was to maintain and want to spread this some of it's our history and narratives over see by this that is you talk about there are people like yourself who are living overseas and i wanted to ask you about that i mean most of the pro-democracy you knows in hong kong are either in prison or facing drug dealers are there for wonder if the hong kong pro-democracy movement of this century become a movement in exile now. for example actually myself i also excel because i am currency in charge. of the nationalists of the north and being wanted by the courts and that's why of course i have to flee from home call and i have to amend the momentum and i have the duty and obligation to tell the whole whole this story to see otherwise because

a script mention many friends of mine many out at if they stay already in prison if there is no one outside to talk about home homeless stoli to talk about our chief of democracy then out this shit will be forgotten and this is something else if you want but we do not. i'm out this so what in burke's new thing girl used to republication such as yours when hong kong's pro-democracy movement went from everything that you're saying it appears to be a movement in exile. i think yeah. the movement now days has become a part of the baltics but don't look at that actually yes still some whole coma's of freedom of it all is on the koran and hired to do what i said they can no matter how shit feel and minimal get it this is they still want to stay in all and to fight to get us back at all the seahawk of us all we want to disseminate our

ideologies and political thoughts and also we want to start a local woman had it all and i will back it up hold this kind of spirits hold important news taiwan to hong kong's pro-democracy movement of active i'm not in taiwan much now that i do think that a lot has a very significant role to have spread out and some of it's hopeless ideologies because i one is also at the front sight to see if the interference and for example our methods he has to seek out from the publisher in taiwan in order to successfully have the hot copy and that's why of course as many hong kong lists gradually go to taiwan and taiwan also face severe threats on the seas he had this will be a very significant strategic role in east asia so me one last question to you you can essentially never go back to your home in hong kong how does that make you feel

. personally i feel it is really difficult for me to a step that facts that i may be. i can never go back to hong kong and i am really home safe i miss everything in hong kong i miss my friends who are you christen it all i do not know when i can be stand again for example just how long and then i have no idea when i can beat him again and then that's why i think i have to but mainly. have to turn this kind of feelings into something very much meaningful we have to create momentum and energy for ourself to air power south we have to take ashes to reclaim all caught and that's why many overseas all call us we will never give up who shall what ever it is helpful and meaningful to be temple call what the sun is your own thank you so much for your time

and you. are a group of people are not rest pakistan have been left nor passion but to live in caves to escape fighting between the government and the taliban residents in the tribal south waziristan district bordering afghanistan have had to live with the fallout of the pakistan army is security operations against the pakistan taliban of these have been ongoing for more than 6 years now forcing some into the caves in this rugged part of the country. they live here not through choice but out of necessity in the mountains on the border with afghanistan militant groups rats in the case provided to agree of safety if not comfort in the. group these caves where once empty in full of dust we cleared them after the security situation changed the times when it was peaceful and not coming back there was peace and freedom and

everything was ok there were no problems right now we're just killing time. just a little. pakistan's military has been fighting back against the militants linked to pakistan's taliban the offensive which began in 2014 forced many to flee their homes and into poverty for many caves with the only option. we have no source of income fathers and grandfathers also lived this life and used to live this way. we have to because we have nowhere else to live. look at this poor man he's sick but no one is here to take care of him. this person is unique i have a burning sensation in my hands and feet i can't touch them. look at his hands or show them your fingers. but as the weather that's good. for

the caves contain a mosque allowing the locals to worship. but these caves in the mosque are 3 to 5 centuries old. this place is known as round of how a miss is called around the power mosque but. the caves offer some sanctuary to their residents as long as the security situation in the region remains tense these caves will remain home. and that's it for today you can always check us out on do double dot com for pleasure and on social media as well we leave you today with so the versions of that continual across the region we're back to more of the same family so you then go back.

to. where i come from we have to fight for a free press and was born and raised in a military dictatorship with just one to shadow and a few newspapers one official information as a journalist i have worked on the streets of many catalysts and their problems are

all the same forward to social inequality a lack of the freedom of the press. corruption work on the 4th to stay silent when it comes to the sounds of the humans on seeing the microphones who have inside to put their trust in us. my name is jenny paris and i work again. 3 young activists battling injustice on 3 continents. and you documentary explores the impact of the struggle against social political and environmental wrongs on the lives of the young protesters also coming up on the show. could mobile sound systems be the way forward for german nightclubs hard hit

by the pandemic. welcome to arts and culture we've all heard of cater to bed and to fridays for feature protests but the young swede is not alone around the world young people are increasingly refusing to put up with the lack of action from political leaders dia feature children follows 3 such activists or in their early twenty's they've all made personal sacrifices to campaign for what they believe in . protesting injustice can mean putting one's life and freedom at risk. to documentary film dear future children from those young activists in chile uganda. and hong kong. what motivates them what keeps them going for 22 year old pepper it's the hope for democracy and independence from china. we've all

learned raced with democratic values with freedom of speech with a freedom of press but in the racing years china is china everything to make hong kong just like any other chinese city. and to take her sheep with their own propaganda up. pepper isn't her real name anonymity is of the essence pepper doesn't just protest she's at the front line. acting as a buffer between other demonstrators and the police. the film shows the brutality of the officers crackdown even after protesters try to flee in fear these f.a.q.'s threatened to build a house that they would like not be outlawed you could actually go and ask them i

say here he said until a one minute i feel that i can do that anymore. by november of 2020 police in hong kong had arrested more than 10000 protesters peppers best friend was one of them sentenced to 10 years in prison a high price to pay for her convictions. for high political the protagonists in our film realize that they have to be able to deal with fear fear can also be a driving force in vice about all 3 are afraid of their future because they're threatened by states like china. they know that they can use that fear and turn it into engler and into courage that gets them onto the streets and motivates the people around them. in uganda 22 year old hilda is standing up in the fight against pollution and climate change her country

called the pearl of africa is now facing alternating droughts and torrential rains the last storm cost hilda's family and thousands of others their entire lives stock and destroyed their fields. a fear that the future i am working for right now will not be there because of inaction. held as activism comes at a cost she hardly has time for her family on top of that she now receives death threats and yet she continues undeterred. the film dear future children also takes us to the chilean capital some tiago were 23 year old rhiannon is fighting for social justice. she is seen as one of the richest countries in latin america britain we have a huge thing a quality gun. you know ranges you know passions and because before even gets

higher and higher. like pepper in hong kong ryann is on the front lines with protective goggles and a gas mask. the police used tear gas to disperse the protesters along with water jam and rubber bullets. in the middle of shooting the film's 21 year old director france burm was hit with a rubber bullet despite his press vest his helmet protected him from injury but others haven't been as lucky. being at the front line means a lot of free stuff. many people lost their rights by any chance of the police. they just should have a bold exterior. on their faces. i always hope this doesn't happen to me. it's going.

to end it for a better future. i go to my future children. dear future children one documentary with 3 portrayals of courage and resistance. and that fail has already won several documentary prizes definitely want to look out for now $78400000.00 that's the price paid by the highest bidder for this coveted painting by french impressionist artist claude monet water lily pond outdid itself it was snapped up for 13000000 more than expected it's one of the famous series of paintings inspired by the artist's own garden the auction saw the 1st in person bidding at southern b.'s new york in more than a year of a lot simply did banks's iconic protest image love is in the air that fetched just

themselves how they could future proof that business is against similar threats now some are turning to mobile sound systems inspired by a concept from jamaica they've set about bringing germany's famous club sounds out from behind locked doors with no loss of quality. this is real and ok start your kids like an orchestra and you know orchestra has to play together and hear each individual speaker has to dialogue with the others in general and they can only create the right sound togetherness on. since the pandemic hit club manager ben i mean i would i has used his time off to build this giant mobile sound system here of course it's on through the years a good track for a sound system it's by i'm super target from rio produced by d.j. maura bird from the.

brutal sounds made for big speakers rich bass and rap. some. sound systems are more than just loudspeakers piled up on top of each other the documentary sound system shows how they got their start in jamaica. where. it was at the point when. it was on the dollar. bill more people wanted to. die especially. poor people who could not afford the balances at posh. clubs and hotels. from jamaica to the world sound systems became a global cultural phenomenon as gathering points sound sculptures and the basis of

new styles of music. back in munich d.j. duo shocked bronx creates music specifically for their own sound system. it's not just about hearing the music it's a full body experience with the stink was the forte i'm going to play our set standing in front of the speakers where everyone else is you have to hear what the people are hearing that's the only way you can guarantee that the sound coming out really is what you wanted to be replaced or false confidence and you know those calls come and go. when you're right in front of the speakers their force is incredible. so for some people that can be a bit stressful at the beginning with an understanding and. but is it because you're not used to the bass really pushing the air out of your lungs. munich base

is what the duo calls it style of music but the deejays influences go far beyond germany. they're not in mexico city or something we were in mexico city at a sony dado event rows of speakers stretching 150 meters on either side and a sunny day those are the ones who play the music taking turns playing half hour sets and then come to see just muddy congo in the congo drum comes and you see the trash fly from one side of the street to the other we were so impressed by what they do there. the coronavirus pandemic has put germany's club scene on mute for now but could mobile sound systems change that. i'm for this sound system is more flexible than any in a club but you can use it to redefine urban space creating a new stage is new. in just minutes it for me to. go does regular stage munich's legendary basement club charlie has been silent now for over

a year. before the pandemic crowds of people used to fill the space dancing till sunrise the club slogan was let the memories begin. and end the nalbandian mean or don't want to start making new memories outside these walls. thank you machine gets we have to get into action or our basement doesn't meet coronavirus safety codes so we decided we have to take back the city and somehow get our audience past or to get in this book to be different when you're a d.j. a party organizer a club manager what can you do without a crowd of people but before. calls a sound system a totem for club culture a symbol of hope for a new start it wouldn't be the 1st time here in munich centuries ago when the plague ended here people also celebrated by dancing what do you. know we take what
