he's showing here in this cafe dubbed into overdue, meaning it's common for whole families together to watch the turkey series together. this is a tv show that details how that was mon dynasty. one of the greatest dentistry in history was formed and the state of the slummy historical tv shows are getting a lot of popularity and pockets done. mostly because we lack this type of content. here are the will q important montez let. the reason i want my kids to watch this show is because of one character in particular because even a robbie who was a spiritual advisor, will just a kid that he conveys the message is now. so my 10 year old daughter can understand it. so just that he said to be exact by using easy language,

but easy language. but not everybody is such a fan of some critical acclaim that in these tv drama's history is being falsified for political purposes. they accused the government of turkish president, richard, tiny of ed, one of using disease to glorify the ottoman empire and islam while defaming religious minorities and undermining democracy. oh, they say the emperor is revisionist and historically inaccurate. in 2 seasons of the series, one of the sultan's arch enemies is t. i don't have the founder of political zionism, and seemed to be the spiritual father of the state of israel, depicted as a devious and to hideous schema.

turkeys regulatory authorities, the radio and t. v. do control what can and cannot be filmed. 6 is not allowed nor drugs or swear word. toma sexuality is to bu, masculinity and strength. a celebrated human flaw and how does the canals are currently 7 mainstream channels and they all struggle with censorship? the main problem is that the rules are not clear. i mean, no one knows what's allowed and what isn't just all of the normal does. if you don't know what might be penalized, you earn the side of caution or writers producers. they start to censor themselves . more money back. possibly even more strictly the necessary one that's dangerous. it's also killed on the table. yeah. much. oh cool. he's the producer of chicago pool. the pit which is about an influential mafia family in a dangerous it's danville neighborhood. it too is popular all over the world

but also in the world by starting back. maybe it has reached conservatism, is now decline again off. but because they start to show, if they're in a way star, i like to be watched by families all over the world. the news, however, these turkey theories are interpreted. they are clearly a breathtaking success. local and guns and their sales are expected to reach over a 1000000000 us dollars in the next 2 years. ah . television drama, soft power. i'm reminder that pop culture and politics are inextricably linked to the growing popularity of africa futurism and artistic movement using the language

and especially of science fiction to explore the black experience in the art of virus bureau, discarded technology is given, new life, abandon radios become face age, communication, devices thrusting excuse bicycles, called black mamba are turned into sculptures that could have been left by an alien civilization. bureau had been making our for years before our gallery in italy gave it a late approach future. i didn't know about a full feature. that's my 1st temper here, there was a future series of eyeglasses called feast unders, made famous, constructed from crash collected on his travels. there are mash up and cultural

tradition to me after that is for future later gets up on by national different cultures. this material will differ from like global, but it's something that and you can see more awesome, can they look more asia? no more our future kind of be a series of pictures from came in photographer osborne material re imagines kenya's legendary mouth independence fighters as high tech optician who helped overthrow colonialism for much area afro futurism is about reclaiming an african past either stolen or forgotten and fall african countries from the colonized and people didn't get to settle, see that history or see themselves in the history or that history was not

documented or was tied to his models are those ignored or abandoned by society? nairobi is underground fight club, imagines a mass mac style secret society of short stafford ward. i always wanted to do something that has to do with people post shots, people who have never been documented, or when they're documented, it's formed a sort of like a point of view of t t. it's like you're teaching them for who they are. and so i want to ship it to transform tupelo shops factor into fighters that wrote images defy the mostly negative view of africa theme in western media issues. but our issues don't want to revolve around poverty. some mind he wore this story that we can tell that sort of give a different perspectives my what the owners both come. the messenger be boiled perception

of africa. the black panther, hollywood finally gave the world a new perspective on africa. here a movie set in the high tech africa land. what kinda brought app or futurism to the main stream. much of the film success with the cost you can design but oscar winner bruce e car. together with black temper director, right, transitioned a futuristic african cy carter's outfit on display the scat museum of fashion and film in atlanta by an african tradition with science fiction. queen, reminders, crown, inspired by traditionals, who had was made on the 3 d printer, female warriors the door. i'm a lodging. we are traditional beating and leather harnesses, similar to those found in the messiah truck. together, these outfit imagine in front of the future for africa, unscarred, psychology station, me, you will form

a pop star beyonce tap into the vein of afro futurism for her visual albums. black is king combining african myth science fiction and the political momentum of the black lives matter movement. she invokes a vision of black culture, both all encompassing and triumphantly female, the another singer bringing afo futurism to the masses is janelle manet artistic, alter ego cindy, me, whether it's a robot who sent by falling in love, inspired by fred lang. metropolis manet uses android as a stand for the marginalized and the oppressed, and the tropes, the science fiction. to imagine a future where black and white, queer and straight, and freaks of all varieties come together. the part i the

the world away from hollywood, boucher and julia futurism is also taking root. a new generation of african artists is looking at their own culture from a new angle. comic book artist, the g mckinney credits black panther aqua card before. no, i've been known to be for about the a 3rd world country and then black panther bring seats to the for the phone as a war to power. that is completely loaded with technology. it was mind blowing. africans everywhere were wow in his comics, but kinda uses sy fi and fantasy to address real world issues of political power, corruption and abuse. lucky lou set in 2050 a. d. the matches africa as

a world power battling on the global stage alongside china. and the us panther may have brought afro futurism to the mainstream. but mac kinda believes the next wave of storytelling will be home growth. when we talk about africa chosen, it is like an intersection of pope i think technology sized chose issues, african itala, jewish african traditions, an african cultural culture. didn't itala geez. more or region up 20 from yes, because we are more dictated. which spacious modeled on, senegalese fishing, both 3 post apocalyptic world, inspired by west africa,

folklore as in bubbly and super hero. just some of the comments published by qu golly, media, which brings the best and afo futurist art, an animation to the world. both of them is up to the same price just so much in that it could be on this will be a waste if it was gonna get to different. disney is listening to hollywood drive is backing fi, fi animated series created by who called details the plot are still top secret, the thirty's. pretty much because that vision story taking place in the lead book that the class inequality. i'm very careful. yeah, yeah. that's what i consider putting up whether in comics, movies, music or design, the art of afro futurism combines tradition with imagination to envision a brighter future for africa and the world

the time now to look at another movement that presented a powerful vision of the future. some 100 years ago, we traced the roots of the political st. tom now found all over the world, some mexican uranus ah, some images make it into the history the while others even wind up for sale on the market like the works of british retails is banks during the corona virus pandemic, st. towns who have been bringing their reactions to the current situation. turning the walls of buildings into forums, the public discourse. they have the origins in latin america, in the history of mexico, around the time that the mexican revolution in the early 20th century,

a new phone was born. newer it picks up on the social demands of the revolution, often painted on the walls of public buildings. heroes depicted modern mexican valleys. today, these works time in the museum in mexico city. one moment you can also, when you, when you are listen, is the only mexican not movement to achieve international success and remain topical with this day. people still speak about more listening than most and plan. it's incredible that in the year 2021, we still have the same messages. it says it's the murals, were completely contemporary on the board. at the most, we see the inequality between the social classes 1 august and the more eligible the murals most moving thing which has lost none of its power or control. the sea to this day is the struggle for power. but once again began this with them, and they asked lieutenant boy of the mexican government, that era turns to the greatest artists of the day. diego rivera started as follows

to kettles and jose clemente or roscoe, if they were to convey revolutionary ideas by means of public painting, mexico's pre hispanic past all but forgotten during the centuries spanish colonial rules returned to the spotlight. this was, which aims to change the world. in time, the majority of mexicans were illiterate. so those who commit the work store, people would understand pictures more than was acted as a facilitator. what's the moment of the length as you have been done? this movement also intended to paint the walls of the body to introduce children and us to revolutionary messages. i don't need this device on the ever since then. murals have been you have to convey political statements to the people to this very day. whatever. think we have a deep connection to and direct relationship with mural. the you will not unless you need to call us body this back then, you know,

never emancipated itself from the state. many works glorified communist ideals. so in 1924. when public funding was withdrawn, the movement ran out of steam. the. this is the working class neighborhood of colonia doctors in the 1970. that was quite rundown. in 2014, the mexican government, once again commissioned young artists to brighten up the quarter of more or less than merely realized with total creative freedom. yes, i knew i'm up on the theme and looking around the neighborhood and painting things . but give me a sense of belonging and because of the things that make people proud if they are neighborhood. but we are, we also that a lot in mexico is considered the birthplace of the urban movement. from here it spreads through the rest of north america and europe before making its way around.

the world retails in fact, it is now an integral part of the global. i've seen large format paintings which cover the entire buildings a part of the flat roof, big city life, events like berlin, mural fast transform, urban centers into open galleries. and here women don't rank behind them. male colleagues: many miracles remain political like those which grace the international brave wall project. last in berlin, this meal list dedicated to murdered brazilian women's rights activist. money ela franklin louis with the possibilities of women shows, in spite which you can see in the small characters. so it's basically about re you one drive. also for women, you can be assigned to, to can be a musician, you can be a leader. it's just about free choice. mexico's new during this movement also

appreciate the freedom of expression and is wary of government propaganda. the brothers mice and have already realized major projects commissioned by the city, including painting and the entire subway station. we met them at a private property in the colonia doctor's neighbourhood. in justice and inequality is still hot topics in mexico. but sometimes that tackled unconsciously. the 50 times i painted things, i only later realized had a message. i wasn't conscious of having put in their phones. there are things hidden away in paintings that you only discover by doing them finish up into that they will not have out of this korean daughter. i was a former all my life was but a hymn book when the day when example is the building of the wild 10 metro station which i painted together with my brother lay my head. we want to paint this emblematic him in the national symbol of the eagle work as swallowing

a serpent for the because we had the feeling that this image exerted a strong influence on society. he was only somehow if we did it the other way around, was no longer the eagle, swallowing the serpent, but now more like a fine grass money brother. and i have completely different ways of painting. not for him. i have been moody and when we have painted the mirror together, we needed to understand one another. well, there was a battle of ideas and she's gone, but they ask whether consciously or unconsciously the mexicans 3 times is today influenced by that pre discusses, a few of his collective still explicitly aim to effect social change lightly stolen from the mexican state of what they highlight injustice and take a stand, including for the rights of women in mexico. thanks camille, listening to their means of expression is now a global cultural phenomena and clearly visible symbols and images,
