go all in or not at all. women in architecture. why are this so invisible to the larger public? we decided to ask them, mrs. what is the poetry, the secret of the house i'm home about their struggles and dreams for the responsibility is hugely has so much to lose shattering the glass ceiling women in architecture. the smallest has to be really, really good. start september 30th on d, w. this is seed avenues, africa coming up on the program, confronting colonialism after queen elizabeth. we have a report from the hotel in kenya where her rain began. but now that it has ended, is they hope for the people seeking compensation for what was taken from them in

her time. also on the program, the war in ethiopia. there were deadly attacks in the northern region of to drive this week. we'll get an update on the situation and development in the region. and 2 seasons entered the basketball african league. i'll be joined in studio by the man who is in charge of the b. i'm a do fall will talk about his vision for the sport in africa. ah, with hello, i'm christine. wonder. it is good to have your company. the death of queen elizabeth, the 2nd has re ignited the conversation about britain's colonial past. now because of that history feelings about her legacy are mixed in many places, particularly in britain's former colonies. d w, as felix marina went to the hotel in kenya,

where she heard she was queen. and as you'll see in the report, it's also near where british soldiers laser carried out atrocities against independence fighters in the country. this is where princess elizabeth became queen. she was thing in the original tree tops are telling kenneth about dear national park. when she was told her father had died making had the morlock in the reception of the rebuilt hotel, a book of condolence for guests to write their comments. i must dare guar a guide who walks there says his father cooked for elizabeth when she stayed here in 1952. quinn was very talkative to the cooks with us and they could always call nor did stuff around were working in auto. and then a get them together to give them our tip and they were very happy when the staff

are given the money than they go and help with their families. so do i value up under director quinn very much. at the time, kenny was still part of the british empire. soon the hotel became the target of bo, in dependent fight us. they bonded like every british establishment they could find . we have done, i must action all of our kenya here in the central protons. i think we decided to blended auto. and that's why they bunk village. i've been, nothing was left. the hotel was bumped up to ashes. it is here are the tree tops hotel in mount kang, at that queen elizabeth the land of her father's death. and that immediately ushered her into her new role as queen. but just a few months down the line in october 1952. when this state of emergency was introduced, a few kilometers from here. some of there was the atrocities committed on the mo, mo, fight as what dan, by the british soldiers and other queens watch. with only my thinking is one of the

few surviving mo, mountain pillars. i doubt she still has nightmare about the brutality of the british soldiers. i know you are my alarm while i wake up in the middle of the night. screaming when i remember the harassment that used to take place in the forest. that fight was terribly brutal. the soldiers would storm into the homes, killed the young men and the children to yorba, and i cannot well i, when i go our ballier this year, move on him a thing asked queen elizabeth competitor for the total. she said british soldiers inflicted upon her a video of her calling for justice has been viewed more than 9000000 times. she says, king charles shall not take responsibility yet yet. i have not stopped seeking compensation . in fact, just the other day i sent word to them saying the son should send me what belongs to me, and he should send to no one else. but miriam with phone and my finger who went to

fight for kenya's independence in the forest. well, some will take that what unity to write in walks of condolence, miracles fill these unfinished business with their former rulers. to continue the conversation, we've invited joshua quincy icons on to the program. he is a political scientist and human rights activist. his areas of research includes develop and politics from a d colonial perspective. he's working on his ph. d at the university off castle here in germany. welcome to dw nice africa josh with good pleasure to have you on the program it's. it's been pointed out that queen elizabeth the 2nd never apologized for the crimes that were committed in the crowns named during colonialism. would that have made a difference? yes, it would absolutely have made a difference. and you can see that what made the difference if you look at how the members of the royal family have actually actively sidestepped. apologies,

for example, last year on their to of the caribbean, where they were met was protest on this very issue when they were met was demands to apologize. and they found words describing the atrocities of enslavement and such, but they stopped taught of an apology. and the simple reason is that such an apology could have legal consequences because once he apologized, you have admitted capability and waste that could find you in court. and because have just heard from kenya, i also want to stress the fact that some of these issues are not about the far past, but also about very, very recent issues. for example, a court case who will be brought to the japan court of human rights. this year, where kenyans were displaced under her majesty's reign under quintanilla, the restrain, half sued after they have found no redress in british court and have found no redress with the crown. so this clearly shows that yes,

an apology is called for an apology, would have consequences, and the people who are demanding the apology and now seeking other ways of redress . i'm a very real example that we saw in kenya, a living person who could speak to what colonialism meant for her and, and, and what it did in her life. but if we can broaden this out at to the african countries or the, the continent of africa, what is the legacy of british colonialism on the african continent? i mean, the british empire was one of the largest in history, and it has centuries, long rain of brutality, that stretched, you know, as you know, across the world. but it, especially impacted african africans from the time of enslavement. through the time of colonialism all the way and we should not forget that to the so called, you know, postcolonial period where we again, in, including under the rain or winter,

the beth had britain meddling in african affairs. so yes, there is a long list of brutality of displacement. there is a long list of colonial theft, and this is true for both artworks and for natural resources. if it's true for many of the most glamorous items. in fact, in elizabeth crown jewels, right. but it is also true for wars such as the be offering war, where we had britain supply weapons to nigeria under the watch of queen elizabeth. it is true for kenya where like i just said and like the mamma fighter, also just iterated. we had incredible challenge he including under, under the rain herself. so we mustn't lose sight of the fact that this is a long history that stretches into the present where we have millions of people who are alive to day that are directly impacted by the injustices by the brutality,

by the theft and plunder that emanated from london there was orchestrated by the british empire. now, the fact that this legacy is a questionable one also becomes very, very queer, clear if we look at the way in which britain has dealt with this. because there was literally an operation legacy that was designed to instruct the story that was designed actually instruct the colonial officials and the foreign office workers in the former colonies to destroy a lot of evidence, a lot of documents that would actually prove some of his calling in atrocities and so orders were given to destroy such documents that would embarrass you know, her majesty's, the queen's government. and this included instructions that were very clear about

who should even be able to see and access and destroy these documents. in some cases, the people were told that only white people of british descent should even be able to see and able to destroy these documents because it was clear that some of the, you know, a racist and colonial policies that were documented, there would not be an embarrassment, but again, could be the base for legal action. joshua, what role then could burton's new monarch king charles the 3rd play in having the british monarchy, confronting and potentially redressed the country's colonial past? at the key question. so what they are faced with is actually a sanitized legacy of the crown when it comes to going in history. and i think the new king is called upon to actually and actively change that. so there is a very, very clear expectation. there are calls from both south africa and from india that

are specifically about the crown jewels. right? that are now supposed to come into the possession of, you know, his wife camilla and people are saying, well, why should that happen? they should be transferred, or some of these incredible gemstones should be transferred to indians with africa would actually come from. but beyond that, people are saying there needs to be an apology and needs to be redressed. we mustn't the side of the fact that the crown has incredible wealth and more than $17000000000.00 us dollars are not in british possession, but in possession of the crown. and there are other operations such as the duchy of cornwall, which generates which itself is again, multi $1000000000.00 will than $1000000000.00 tape generates revenue for the royal family for its own use. and so this is where we can see that some of the bridges of enslavement. some of the riches of cronyism have been invested and are

still benefiting the royal family to day. and that is where people are saying this is where we need to have redress. and this actually precedent in the u. k. where we had, for example, the university of glasgow doing a slavery audit when it's try to understand. so how have we as an institution actually benefited from an statement? and i think the time is ripe for the crown to undergo most slavery and colonialism audit to actually face up their responsibilities. intriguing staff, as always, it's a good to have you on the program. joshua chrissy, i can thank you for your insight and val weighing in on this conversation for us. thank you. ah, he watching dw news africa still to come basketball in berlin from africa. ah basketball is really about you.

ah. at 1st to the conflict in ethiopia, there's been a sustained diplomatic push, trying to bring peace to the country's northern region to the cry. with the 2 conflict parties, reportedly holding us sponsor talks in neighboring djibouti. now just days ago, the ruling to gray people's liberation, france said it was ready for a ceasefire, and peace talks with the ethiopian government in at his other. now there's been more violence. ah, time runs differently here. the ethiopian new year has just begun and it's been cause for celebration for more than 2000 years. but since war returned, there's been little reason for joy, death, as you can see, now everything is expensive, little if there was place, it wouldn't be like either. a nigger though mother don't people have less income,

which are they can no longer afford this. and therefore, the current situation is very difficult. no, i think a piece comes to the country when prices will go down or go to guns. aluminum. this new year did bring a statement from the t grey people's liberation front. the t p a left said they would participate in an immediate cessation of hostilities, leading to a permanent ceasefire with mediation through the african union. but just days later, trans strikes hit the to grind capital mecolas dealing another blow to any hopes for peace. hospital staff say at least 10 people died on that morning alone. the attacks hit a university, a tv station, and this residential neighborhood. inside what's left of this home, the family dog lies dead. the t p ls claims the government of prime minister abbey are met, accusing artists of quote, defying any possibility of a peaceful solution. ethiopian government has not commented on the latest air raids

. the fighting in t gr, i resumed in august between government forces and rebels, led by the t p l. f. alongside the conflict t. cry is under communications blackout, and the ukraine war has made an already disastrous humanitarian situation even worse. and june, 87 percent of people surveyed and to grow food insecure, more than half of them severely. so the front wants to make t gray independent of ethiopia. it ruled the country for decades before abbey took office in 2018. abby's government says a t p l f is a terrorist group and said the ethiopian army in to topple it in 2020 but with god in and out. now i'd like to bring in college when joy is a journalist based in ethiopia, capital addis ababa? it's good to have you on the program archuleta. what more do you know about what is currently happening in sir grey?

well, what we're hearing a little what is coming. the news that is coming out of this coming from there are communication channels of the to greg people's liberation front and the degree of government. and we've seen a lot of them written out of concern, raising a lot of water discoloration up until on what they call a continuous attacks by the government. well, that's the, from the unsafe from the, from the human tyrann agencies. they've already raised concerning the see that already the situation is said to go, was there any dia, even before the new, the fighting began? so they're saying that the governor of supply of material issues is going to be really be big, be more wind, you know, if a versus fire is not really a contribution of maintenance of life. i mean, that goes on. so it's an issue of desperation. an issue also looking into how to verify information that's coming out of there because of the unsightly government hasn't really say much in the past few days. you talked about

a ceasefire. collette had there was a cease fire. that is, that the fighting had stopped for about 5 months into gray. what, what led to that cease fire being broken now that we have this renewed fighting? well, this is so elaine left was his fair declared by the, by the government of if you can, it was, are you insurance is fire a little because that came up that a little supplies, material assistance wasn't going into the 5 months. we saw some supplies going mean, although the you, when you mention it, if you say to not enough but at least lose something going in. now, as of now, it is really hard for us to see. this is what exactly brought back to finding a friend, because we've seen the government claiming the t p a left for refusing to ascend to the issue of a government for it forces and wasn't yes, it's really hard to really tell a particular point to say this is what the fighting because it's been blemishes

between the to get the class a case of conflicting narratives. what you were talking about. the lead is an integral there that is a t p. and if they said that they are ready for peace talks with the government in at is about they say that on condition that those p strokes are led by the african union. how significant is this development? well, what we saw that the declaration of the, of the great government on the issue piece talk was kind of a compromise because we know, i mean they had said that they do not trust the african commission leadership. and that the fact that the president of can and can you be in the process. so now the new announcement of accepting that the african union should lead the process kind of conforms to what the government had also wanted. you know, so that was kind of a compromise on the end of what analysts say. but at the end of the day, they say they're ready budget, then we saw reports a s, right?

that means and we've really got a confirmation or denial from the government on these issues. and also the government has not really responded foreman to the g p a to great government piece . so where we stand right now, it's more of a one sided quest for peace and that the government simply means that the national community must go to the government to ensure that they keep their why don't the requirement for peace talks. all right, that is the journalist college i one joy talking to us from at is ab over there. thank you for your reporting. ah, finally, the eyepiece from the basketball africa league are visiting germany, promoting their sport. the b a. l is a young initiative driving professionalization of the sport on the continent where many talents are still not able to find opportunities to earn a living from their passion. nobody wants to foster new investment and african ask

for through collaboration between the us based national basketball association. we're in b and the international basketball iteration. and in studio with me now is i'm a do fall, he is the president of the basketball africa leave. it's a great pleasure to have you in the studio, so they call you the godfather of basketball in africa and i'm just calling for you to let us in on. what is your vision for the sports in africa, or just to continue to drive growth, you know, for basketball, this tremendous passion on the continent across the board and lot of talent basketball is a global game. really look at the end here. what only has been able to achieve being the only sports lived are going to want to say that the best for, you know, sport play in india and b a. so we want to make sure to africa continues to,

to player role, right? not only provider of talent, but the same thing is what you're looking to do today with the boss will lead to harbor showcase right where the talent could be nurtured, who grown in the process with an industry wrong basketball. okay, and, and have, let's talk about the lead because you've, you've now had 2 seasons. how's that gone? are you pleased with the progress? well, given the circumstances and how we launched in the middle of a pandemic in 2021 were extremely pleased because we were able to play a full slate of in 2021. was all over 12 teams are coming from 12 countries, 2 weeks of a basketball relative to former, across the world because the games will broadcast it in 215 countries around the world. i've been really a showcase display of not only the best data from africa, but also we attracted to global times. right. do you have

a chance to develop the women's game on? ultimately, it is our desire to continue to grow the popularity of basketball or just you kind of, you know, more than half the population. basketball amongst women, happen to be extremely popular. does certain countries on the continent does always done well? and i got a job. so certainly the day will come right now. we want to focus on making sure that we put this league on the global map and then, you know, we'll continue to grow from there. i mean, a person. and if there for me is my mother played basketball in school, she is an avid friend and in some bubble that she went to school. but i am interested in your personal story as well, in terms of what this game at which you played as well, how it impacts if your life. i think everything that i, you know, doing today and certainly owed to the opportunity to, to play the game or basketball and use it as a conduit to, you know,

getting my college degree and really all the doors that open for me. and this is what we try to replicate and you know, as often as we can on other young people ultimately does really what we use as a strategy to grow the game basketball on the continent using it as a tool to empower young people right now if we're going to grow africa, we have to focus on the you with them, with the tools and education is central. and i think we tap into the, into the passion for support basketball and particularly to get them to really focus on, you know, things like responsibility towards the community and those that are extremely talented. also, we've created now a complete pathway for them to engage with the game, a grassroots level, and have an opportunity to be selected in the academies and ultimately go to the n b o play in the possible africa live. in this process,

we are going to really grow and develop basketball in the various countries. and this is the number one prior to want to make sure the whole system grows. speaking of your priorities, where do you see the basketball african need in tenure? quickly? what are the best is going to be one of the best professional basketball league in the world outside of the talent we have on the continent. and now that when the infrastructure start to catch up, because countries are starting to realize a sports bn, economic growth engine, industrial, really, our mentor does what we push, that's why the bus with a no paternity to showcase everything to africa has best to offer. this is going to boost tourism and obviously boost if and i'm it's for the different countries. there's a reason why we chose to go to horse all finals, and we're going to have an environment where other countries are going to want to host a basketball africa league tournaments, but we need the infrastructure to catch up. so this league is just in its 2nd

season, we are busy planning for, for next year, learn excitement. we had an opportunity here to engage with some fans here in bold im mostly from the african dash for it. we were looking to really invite people to come to a different markets where we'll be playing to come and enjoy basketball about them, discover incredible clinics. it is enough ago. incredible. well, we look forward to having you back on the program to tell you, tell us how that is all going. so that is miss i do fall who is president of the basketball africa league, and that's way we leave it for today. be sure to check up. hello this boys on d, w dot com, forward slash africa were also on facebook. and on with well, come in for everything with
