championship and freestyle longbow damn thing. and in 2021. she came and 2nd can will deland with i know in 2020 i won the world championship which should have taken place in the netherlands. but they do to come at 19, it ended up happening on line was my opponents included russian, brazilian, taiwanese and polish athletes, colonial lumber, dancing of skateboarding with don steps and trick marina found her love for the sport. after moving to france, teenager recognition in the sport is not only a win for her, but for all the women she represents over them, i didn't, i can, it is a victory for black women because in this sport, they are under represented in the media cinema video. clips and advertisements, the same plea, she's always placed. so girls think this board is not for them. i was very proud because i was the 1st black woman to win the competition place. in condemning danielle, he got to order the the family for britain for madame wood, plaza,

negron again. these days marina's work takes around the world for photo shoots, brand ham panes and of course, skating. but her journey wasn't always easy. hey jessica, this is will the screening. so i have experienced racism, discrimination and sexual assault. i've been through it all and i know what it's like. i think that almost all women have already suffered this combination. whatever that may be, again is going to function in safin. marina hopes to spread the love she has prolonged, bought dancing with others. and although the sport is not getting olympic discipline, she's been named one of cup that olympic ambassadors for 2024. from one champion bouncing around stereotypes. let's meet a mother who is just whistling past them. how many once equal is the 1st woman to win the east africa superbike championship? how fast she she is nor to have gone as fast as 280 kilometers farrah. and that is

the boston mach locally. known as the buddha, what's a bike or someone would have transport? it can. although it's still uncommon to see women writing motorbike more and more and now experience in the freedom, the border wouldn't offer them whether the sneak into a traffic was different over a road and highway tom. and he also runs a motor bike dealership and it's getting up. anyone who wants to get the road from the put up a does your private bike and even organizations live in the many guys. i don't have a specific that i target. how many encourages all aspiring writers who simply start with what they buy when they send in a sudden, along with team didn't have a i didn't on a bike. well i know only knew is good. i didn't skills. and it, and it took up the challenge that i was given to be to be the 1st maybe the 1st,

the talk after a recent injury, how many is back on the track? she's in patient already training to claim another podium victory. blank. and i'm one is gone, i just feel dizzy. what in her race? now we need a place to relax and where can we go? i think maybe my serial, the capital of listen to if nestled in the valley. but it's sorted by mountainous and here the breeze is just refreshing. what you say, maureen, us, we, are you ready for us? i'm, we're in a so i will come to the mountain kingdom. only soto. i'm going to take you through my beautiful city, missouri set at the foothills of the jackins berg woman, lottie, mountains, nice missouri. the tiny capital of la sue to a kingdom encircled by south africa. missouri is mo renice wade playground.

catapult to shame by tv, talent, joy. this city is the perfect muse to work after pop style lee. but before we hit the town that marina treats us to the most popular national pastime. hiking is montana's called tele receive when it means the mountain of the night. this is where we defend in our country. you know, our king was fighting for a country and he was thing, right? they, on top 200 years ago, king mosh wish way, defended his kingdom from colonists and neighboring nations. from his mountain fortress. the legendary warrior and statesman was known for treating his defeated enemies with kindness on much waste way. de people i come to his tomb to pay their respects. i'm tenderly. i beat swa reduce long sleeves. mushroom dory is still relevant today. i see a lot last or not the i paid our for us for the,

for this country. we have to correct a few things to politically here and there. and that's why we see this there. we should talk about more for, for all the records on miranda, sometimes referred to himself as muscle to the child of much which way in flesh like him, many young people in the suit who are inspired by tales at the king's bravery. and she managed i probably feel already take her to the equally impressive line rock mountain to meet a friend. this is how you always see the bus or 2 people wearing blankets, you know. and we other people were in blankets my bicycle was. so we're going to

design and now was going to modernize it and put it in the 21st century le, man, man, compello, lee chub, motivating is a designer who loves to put a fresh spin on the suit who is traditional blankets. so different patterns and colors indicate important bus, thoughtful families and lineages. most of them felt limited just using the material as a wrap. so she slows them into more contemporary shapes. so here we have chinese small jacket made from the bus or to blanket. as you can see here, we didn't want to lose our identity as bustle to him. young people listen to. so we had to come a bubble of ways in which we incorporate our by sued to, into our daily life. like when going to work or going anywhere based can with a population of over 330000,

missouri is by far the largest city in lazoodo. sometimes the hustle and bustle gets a bit much for marina. luckily, there's no shortage of gorgeous mountains around the city, the perfect place to find stability and inspiration. marina's favorite cliff top overlooks his mother's house where he grew up. i get to miss this place so much every time i'm out of the country conway to go back here because this is like a refreshment place for me and i get my energy back in now. so it means a lot to me this place. as the sunsets marina invites us to a local nightclub with used to touring across south africa. and that's why there's nothing i like feeling the support of your high meats. of course, this club is in a valley because we shudder drink and climb mountain us. even emma sarah, i
