fighting for a right to return the land under surveillance leaks time is the home combs democracy movements the old home in 2019 named 2023. how can a city change so much in full use? what happened to the 2000000 people who took to the streets to demonstrate for the freedom and civil rights? every time i go back to this place, i mean life and things happen just in the past. that shouldn't be ok.

florida springs as to the spot where he was arrested in 2019 like more than 10000 others. according to the process they will fail to prove any other things. only that i'm hiding behind is stella and maybe with some other clothing, a helmet gloves and a most. he's reluctant to show as a photo because he was convicted of supporting the protest movement. he spent 32 months in prison and still feels an easy here. in this case if the or this thing is a 0. a a reminding yourself is not safe to speak so freely. yeah.

so next morning, tourist springs as to his freak show, which is open since it's released. it's an easy finding, a job with the guy in his resume doesn't morgan. 9 the highest, the cars tories used his time in prison to study languages including gym and he figured that to come in handy if he makes a fresh start somewhere else. he's still chooses his words carefully. if i know at the ends of him doing some holly's risk in my life, again, going back to joe in 2020 aging imposed a national security little that gave it broad powers to punish dissenters. and critics of the chinese communist party to the pro chinese politician regina. yet the new was an appropriate reaction to the protest comes this,

the violence became unacceptable. so bathing enact took a natural security law on i'll be home. no good with the protesters to bring back law and order. how monday is the bocce? even when it came, parliament has become easier since the pro democracy calling because of the anymore far more effective form more efficient because of the city bus 3, the deliberate obstruction of the opposition which the west liked to romanticize as democrats. they've done a lot of home to home call sheets. probably say the same about the woman we visit next. 40 minutes from downtown home home. debbie was elected to the district council here. 2 years later, she resigned to paste or the district council a half is p t o to say that we are loyal to the come of this policy.

like many other local lawmakers, debbie refused, but she held on to our office space so that she could remain available to constituents. so you know, sales locally made products to pay the rent. usually it's not enough to cover the costs, but this month she said record sales. the end of may i stop distributing, kendall because june 12 is coming. and is one of the transitions like for the po to like to me on. so the people who die on that day, june, 4th, 1989 was the day when the chinese minute tree cut down on pro democracy protest is that the aging stand them and square in china, mentioning those who died or even the data known as to be debbie wrote down what happened next. local officials pay to revisit saying that had been complaints that her bookshelf was blocking the sidewalk and that she was setting alcohol to minus

the light or the government. the hotline came and closer in light suits for free days, which i think is fairy at no more. since then, she said more custom has been as a tool. this kind of sign and statement is the only full of protests that still possible in hong kong. during our visit, a police car stopped across the street. the offices took photos of us, and debbie took photos of them. the taste of the new normal, you know, call i don't think people, you know is happy about us to change them. but they also feel that is things we have to say anything about that. that's how these retired social scientist explains it. who like many others, like the u. k, you decided to leave off to repeatedly receiving assignments from the place. he can speak openly, which is no longer an option in home home, you have been told that we had to ups of some went lice. but let we never know

what those, what lies. even singing a song on comb could be dangerous these days. the government wants to burn glory to home comb him the became the on some of the 2019 protest movements. as far as virginia is concerned, home home special spaces is a thing of the post. hong kong is supposed to to the 9 come what may, the white, sandy beach is clearly will send the chunk of salt capella go is a jewel in the indian ocean. the british overseas territory is thousands of kilometers from the nearest mainland. but since the late 19 sixty's, the largest islands, diego garcia, is housed

a huge submit to the final act in a traumatic drama began on april 27th, 1973. a ship collected the last remaining residence of the child goes archipelago. their island paradise was taken from them. the british government forced the islanders into exile. what was the moment that tom was one of them? we were to let the ship is there? no, then they took our people away. the british never told us to pack anything, and there was no time. all we had with us was a mattress and a suitcase. when we arrived in moorish us, we had on the 11th family members sleeping on the floor and one room. after 3 days my grandmother said you need to look for a house. so my mother built mine from tow, done. who was a moment back home, lives with the horrors of the past. and a lifelong dream of returning to cha goes, now to this day,

she remains caught between 2 worlds. the walls of her home and marissa is to pick the island world she left behind. on the table, there are some videos. nothing's happening. go, no, no tablets, just see enough. that chunk offs has shelves like these if your mouth, although i got this one from the st. shells when they took us away so brutally, we couldn't take anything with us. so when i saw the shell, i picked it up. it's like the one my mother had many years ago talking about so many of those who were deported ended up in malicious in this part of the locals began moving away, anxious to leave what they called the seats. or the challenge of the islanders. the people who lived here carry the stigma of being poor and far right. they have their own flag and even a kind of national and some that tells of their expulsion from paradise.

after me, the years a small group was allowed to visit cha, ghost. the joy of seeing their former home was mixed with sadness over their loss. it's almost impossible to get permission to visit the british view. the islanders as a security risk and fear any visits might strengthen their desire to return. it's all part of a geo strategic move by britain in the united states that turn the islands into a restricted military base. from here in the middle of the indian ocean, the 52 long range bombers were able to reach both afghanistan and direct. the location is also perfect for allowing the us to monitor global trade routes and keep an eye on growing chinese influence in the region. we cross to britain where we meet frankie bohn told in the super and the club is a popular meeting point for the to go see and community the older members can

chataway inquiry old and forget their struggles in a country where they often feel like strangers. most of them the more rigorous you'll be 10000 kilometers away. chombo the land of their dreams is just as far away. even though he's one of the would you want to go by the table? i want to see the best 3 lives and do leave you on the land where you know your mom, you've done mother was born. oh, going to do that we should go on met. say they don't want to recognize that equation as an easy to just be able to go to the new the moment they do that they will have the claims of the land. frankie talks regularly to his mother and other relatives and malicious lives. maurice incense family leaves are the initial phase of a d port taishan by the british. we spent months living in upholding conditions . well, we wanted was to attend to child goes on,

but they said we wouldn't get permission in the us have been sold. that was in the 19 sixty's, so we had to stay here. when my father died, my mother wanted to go back and race had children there, but that wasn't possible. my mother died then my younger sister. she was, she wanted to go buy my book of how the more her daughter amount claims it tells us she could imagine living in cha goes. but her grand daughter chloe, is trying to get rid of citizenship, and wants to go there to study in the land of the former colonizers, or on a new cause. i know it's a paradox, but it's just an opportunity that has to be taken suddenly can't make you forget what they did, but it's a small compensation such as all but but frankie bone tongue once more than that, we met him in new york at the united nations where he's been fighting to get the

truck go, seems recognized as an indigenous people group in their own right. he believes this will give them a say in what happens to track us. just this has to be done. i don't know if we, we really have to read about the next generation, but we would never give up. we have to do something and we just stay stands do nothing with hospice. and ben, if in the conference hall be here and you included indigenous groups from all over the world, and that is at minorities seeking to assert their rights against a powerful nation states. each group was given 3 minutes to state their case before the mike was handed over. we are not motion our island on more than 1000 miles or more. we just, we have it and you need to go to a what a way of life. and to the next to the land and ocean, all island we are, we'll get it soon for the i think that it plays into keith of chicago c n y. and i now use the fraud to benefit his insect eve of what in my life. the

problem is, the united nations is already ruled that the u. k. must be turned, child goes to more riches. the group stopped for a quick photo to post on line. but there's no hiding there, frustration the u. k. and marissa as have agreed on some key points, british barrister phillips and successfully argued the case on behalf of my wishes at the world court. he says the child go sealants, could still be given the right to return, but it's not for an international court to grant the islands independence. the ruling can only reaffirm the previous supporters when cha goes, was part of marissa. so you might have a group of chicago students who say, we don't want to be part of permissions. we want to own independent country. and i understand why perhaps they may want to argue that. but under the rules of international law, back is not possible. it unless of course nourishes what to say. we will

give you a referendum, you can choose, it's like scotland. it's like catalonia a bug. marissa is hoping to generate income from tourism and plantations, and would likely charge the us a hefty fee for using the military base. which of those teams are refusing to give up their demanding reparations from britain and to return to their homeland shop the best sand is from cha goes, can you go to the what do you feel when you look at it? why is it? oh, my heart aches when i look at it. if i can't go back to child ghost and die there, then i want to have the sense spread over my grades. move to the beach you dream of . that's good. that was. yeah, so general god will bring me there one day and i will definitely go, god will give the islands back to us and to me and i will embrace them. i'll say i'm back for now. so she returns the send back to

the bottle. what was the amount that's home was 17 when she was forced to leave her home. after 50 years in exile, she now has fresh hopes that one day she might return. summerland. if i ever go back to august, i'll build a house like this one. the sales harvests drilling capital argentina has been suffering, devastating drought for years. as much as down to human activities likes waves of forest being cleared for agriculture. farmer i'm are in demo as land as much to drive. right now he's planting wait. but here in the province of santa fe, it hasn't rained for a long time. so he's planting a genetically modified strain called h before it can cope better with arid conditions. and was developed by the

argentinean company bo settings. i'm a demo as a shareholder and the vice president of the all settings, like many farmers in argentina, he's worried about his ever shrinking harvests that someone, us, again, we're currently going through a terrible drought, single person, and the thing done, you know, anything i've been working in farming for 30 years, and i've never seen anything like it. when i say go to that one me to last year he planted both genetically modified and conventional. we to compare the 2. busy of the genetically modified h. b for we have yielded 10 to almost 20 percent more than the conventional waiting 3 or 2 reports in argentina h before we is already being sold as food, no extra labeling is required. other countries like for sale and the us have lifeline is authorized to use. but there's also massive criticism of

h before because it's resistant to a toxic herbicide called glue, false. and 8 ammonium critics argue that means that the herbicide will likely be used would be a series denies that i've gotten ok most. so we've never used to fascinate ammonium here. there's no need for and to invest in the chemical treatment we do is exactly the same as for conventional weight. and i think on some cases where it's necessary to use just for selected areas where there is a specific weed or problem noise. but it's not use that much on argentinian wheat fields, the farmers, eduardo strategy and myself, not team follow a different concept. they also grow wheat, but they don't use any chemical toxins or genetically modified crops on their fields. even if that means they end up with a much smaller harvest. is 3. 08 is

a staple food in argentina. that's why it's so important. it's used in every household for bread, pasta, and flour. as i saw, see, it wouldn't be healthy if it contained toxins. and we said a lot of the promotions we produce without any toxins or genetic engineering of it . okay, going to see what we think h before is dangerous because it was made to tolerate advert chemicals like fascinate ammonium. i don't know. gimme the home on, pushing that to them on the to organic farmers grind their own flour and sell it across argentina. it's become very popular. the point to study is showing that residue from agricultural chemicals, remains and foods like fruits and vegetables. any practicum create the product and you consumer directly affected chemical residue state using the ground for the air on the micro flora and microphone on me, and also affects the people who live near that farm land. a tenant of old,

at one of those bianchi is on his way to visit someone who has become sick. because of the use of anchor chemicals. dorm a cobra is a farmer to how you doing? very well. nice to me. i'm edwardo, thanks for seeing us. she shows him the neighboring farm there solely beans planted here. one of the most important crumbs in argentina after wheat and corn, the farmer sprayed anchored chemicals on his fields. a court case determined that they made her sick. now the neighbor has to stay at least 500 meters away from her house when spring chemicals. they will not let us. yeah, i developed analogy and started getting blotches on my skin set are enough. my phones with damaged english one i'm so doctor told me that i have the authorized as of an 82 year old. and then you still, she has to continue working to survive of the back to santa fe

biologist, rockhill. john headed up the team of scientists that develop the genetically modified wheat for b o series. she thinks the worries about h before are unfounded. the seeds are basically the same. she says whether genetically modified or conventional seats and the end, it's the same bread being baked. the punch is 5 months old at about that height, by the time it develops green, there's unlikely to be hub side and the grains. i'm not saying it can't happen, but it's highly unlikely. she's especially proud that argentina developed the drought resistance. we've variety rather than some wealthy industrialized country, the farmer i'm our demo, meanwhile is on his way to the bakery and the city of roofing. now, the bakery here doesn't use his genetically modified weight. the opinion among

consumers is mixed. anything else? no video, we shouldn't even consider planting genetically modified weight seed. the scene should be kept as natural as possible with no chemicals, see no side of it, okay? and that's gonna be, that's how we experience drive to every 10 years. so it's good that they can do this. yeah, i think it's good to have an alternative on a separate golf. i'm our demo for his part plans to continue planting genetically modified wage. the this week on global teen comes from south africa. the

my name is invited in been a call and a chaise. old from cape town is had efficacy. the my mom is a domestic worker and my dad works with the construction the i really loved going to school, but i loved the idea of freaking out in the morning any in the morning. my favorite subject of school ease of cons. in accounting. i love a frequency because she was um, i was a day after class primary school. it's actually gets now to flow more and i can better marks and very good luck and may now as somebody may go and it gives us the o a,
