a very fast phase, 2 and 2016. we weren't able to drive. and then 2017. i see my classmates driving themselves to their classes having this freedom to hear about for our lives . now just a few years later, she's looking forward to her son tonight and she'll also be paid for it. the change opens up so many doors. not just for me to be in the music industry, but for me to discover myself as this cover. you know, other communities as i related to and obviously it's very empower that i can make money out of this. you know, something that i want to tell you my, my children, my grandchildren, with all these new freedoms accessible to old style. the women officially women,

the no longer falls to a headscarf space covering all the long roads known as the maya, the female employment rate has doubled. a many rules concerning mail, guardianship has been eliminated. and yet the rest holds a contradictory people who raise that voice to demand equal rights for women, a liable to be locked up, post silenced, move in 2 sides of saudi arabia as population is under the age of 30. and young people are embracing, you entertainment's experiences like the sound storm festival, a 3 day electronic music event, the features international and local office in jewels a crowd of about 200000 each day. i couldn't imagine us, all feelings is coming to such a place like 5 years ago. we are just such a thing going to have been and i really like the the don't like everyone is included to be. this goes next. i can express themselves to boston may cause nothing with the saudi arabia is no longer as closed as it used to be.

and while the mindset of the general public may not be changing as fast as the growing music industry, the opportunities that have arisen have already changed lives, at least for sol scan under best practice tonight. the, i don't know how you would define a sally on that, but i'm pretty sure she looks like me. she looks like that and others, but like would that by end of the call, that is also a typical saudi woman. we are all of that. everything in between, i know that we're resilience, that we can find a way. so in that sense i think i'd, i'd be honored to calm myself. so the woman that i want to say, i wanna maybe open up the

news phone and love getting gauge to get married and then live happily ever off to me. it's not being like that for decades since the 19 seventy's. there's been a general rise in divorce rates worldwide. the with considerable regional differences. most countries permit divorce next, but not whole matters wedding on a grand scale. in march 2023, 2023 couples exchanged marriage files. on one day the city of buffalo done the philippine island of nicholas made it easy for couples to tie the knot. capitals

like mikey and john, facing the mid twenties to whom the wedding was free of charge. like many here. they couldn't have a food at this time, and many other wives joined in my tea set, this was the most important day of the lights. the moon lavish the ceremony the best to the elaborate mess. wedding is a huge celebration to mock a decision that's for life because the now at least who is nursing option in the philippines when marriage is housing very high regard. finally, we're officially a couple i'm happy that i can now take his name. getting married is easy, guessing. divorced, impossible. april teddy also would like nothing more than to get divorced. but the

news prohibit since the 41 year old has to provide for her daughter, one henry of the husband left to use a guy. since then, juliana has hardly seen her father, and her memory of him is fading. a few photos in the family. alba. not all that remains since he went to seek walk abroad a so many do hit the lights. i broke off for contacts. no divorce means no requirement to pay child support. afraid that i won't be able to give her everything she needs when she asked me for something i say be patient because we can't afford it at the moment. we don't have any money right now. she understands that then she says, mommy, that's okay. but fortunately, my daughter is very kind,

so we don't have any problems with each other. so what go to is joins together let no one separate. this phrase from the bible is enshrined in lowering only 2 countries worldwide. the vatican and the philippines. father jerome says, delano says the goals is not the only way to solve relationship problems. he sees the philippines as a beacon in the darkness, most of the country that's trailing others and its development. the circumstances are deeper in front of the sky and police compared to ours, so we don't need to be like them. so i guess we should even be proud of here. we are sticking to it now that that, that we are protecting marriage, as i mentioned. so in other words, the only way out excepted by the church and the state is an enrollment where the marriage is treated as having never existed. but it's a lengthy process the any,

the well so you can afford that happy many attempts that reform in the past, but all have full and filed of defend opinions, complicated political system better and it will make it so lockman often champions the close of the disadvantage and has put forward a bill that permits divorce in certain cases. she's confident it will eventually become a little why not married? yes, i suppose to be so nice. it had been many uh, probably to have because of human frailty. and because of this, many of uh you in the site and uh uh, i'm gonna be more but the create a abused women and they've been, we've been we would have to give a liked like to this couple. she'd be stress april

patios and what she can from babysitting, struggles to make ends meet. it's been 8 years now since the husband left. he doesn't support so that goes to the little still states she must remain married to him. thankfully when things get really bad, she does at least have relatives who help out of the town for those who finally want to get away from their ex partners but can because they're still married on paper wherever you go, whose name goes with you on on to get more funding, but when i found out there's a chance that i might be able to divorce in the future. i felt hope again that got an hold up on that one day. i will be able to file the papers and we will be separated for good and so with that and you will end up with i am for john and

mikey, getting married means they can start a new independent life together. the philippines is quite a conservative country, where the values of the catholic church is still cherished by many if i don't like divorce, you need to take the time and be fully sure about your partner before you get married for you. if you're not sure, then don't get married. it's as simple as that. first afternoon. okay, laugh i think dibels test. okay. even if you've known someone for a long time, you don't always know what they're thinking and what's going to run inside them. and you can predict what the future holds us and should say one day, no longer be so happy together. it's possible they won't have to stay together any longer. and they want to the,

this woman is royalty, even if it doesn't appear. so at 1st loans is making them is working hard to en money for her family that she can sell aquino of oysters for about 3 years. one day she will be queen, but exactly when that's a secret kept by the women other wrong the u. s. b would mean you have to go to several rituals, it being stereos, but their secrets, she's a guy. who's that adams, you have to know the traditions and know exactly how to prepare the shells for the sacred ceremony. for example, that we see them said yet a but those, if it's the women who hold the power among the be aga, people living on this island far off the coast of guinea be so they all have the head of the family and above them all the queens at the moment they were all 3 is

dictated by tradition. they also says as priestess. so they make all the important decisions on the items, such as when to so and harvest and when to hold religious ceremonies. only women are allowed inside the round top. every problem is discussed at length the we help people with their marriage problem, as we know about everyone's problems here on a run go. it's a couple is arguing and they don't come to us. we'll hear about it from their neighbors messages and then we'll help them find a solution at the moment. i welcome to say, i know women may have the power here, but they also do most of the work. they build the houses and do the housework, and they also own all the property. some of the oysters that is making them collect it this morning of being cooked for the families, lunch. the people on around go live modestly relying on what nature has provided.

the men go out to fish, but they don't do much other work. instead, i have a lot of leisure time. get no one questions this division of labor. specifically the women are pro to, to stay a strong role. and i use the same that in midland, but as a, as in a b, i don't, as i say, and then defied, unlike the women on the mainland where independence, there was a couple of them. i yeah, well, boost go it. we don't wait for them to get at least gotta be rude. we don't have to bag them for money store shopping. we can decide for ourselves what to spend the money on in atlanta, but i mean, if you need any other defense, i don't know if i put this, let's get some 3000 people live on the wrong go. most of them in the village of 80 koga here women decide who they want to marry. the parents then of the parents of the chosen partner to agree to the marriage. the men are allowed to have several why? they didn't have

a problem with living in the matriarchy. there are advantages for them. and just like the women the proud of their traditions, am i keep them from looking to you sort of probably keep them pretty never since queen a king upon the end, we'd become famous for being the island where the women have all the power. oh my god. okay, i need to say that we're planning company, so the data here problems are solved before they get bigger success in any thought that got them on the main office and we have our claims to thank for the better for me because i forget to get a tank a pump is redid and around a head remains a kept here in this hutch into koga. it's become a safer place for people to visit. she's known for leading the resistance against the portuguese colonial powers until championing social reforms and women's rights until his death. in 1930 today though, there was also a village, t caetano to pinion clean. any pays in regular visits,

as his opinion is imposing too. after all, the men should also have a voice. in this way, the women ensure that no problem is ignored and everyone feels into the government . the government in the capital be so seems to can little for the role of the women on the rank of it, since it's decrees to katana, not the queens, but no one here pays that any mind see where the preventive, so say the government and be so could learn something from us there, the politicians don't listen to the women looking to move them here. on the other hand, everyone works together because of what it was. and that's why everyone in our village except some decisions that are made a little about the queen's hut is the center of power, says a 2 year old queen and a kid. the women carry on the tradition of a king cup pump. the doctor, the no, we all work together who to get and we put a lot of effort into that. and i mean, well 1st the men and women meet separately. then they made with one another and

we'll go without a language. once everything has been discussed, we queens have the last word. i'm going to add the islands may no longer be home to appear matriarchy. but it's definitely a contrast to the patriarchal power struct who's on the mainland. the archipelago, it's positive was never for the call. the nice that is allowed it's democratic traditions to be largely preserved, making o'rando a place of peace. the when the rearrange things indigenous songs, another world opens up to the soprano things into the picture mistake in her own native language. make sure it's time for

a sudden check for her show tonight in mexico city on a most atlanta ms. spaniel, of course, we can speak spanish, but when we speak about native language, everything's different. language is what shape our view of life and of the world. it's the basis of every thing he put in. maria rena, left will haka the city where she grew up to study singing. she's fluent in spanish, but always dreamed of performing in the future. today, she thinks of the big stage are cheap performed in 14 indigenous languages. she's fighting, but they're not for go to some the she hopes to sing. you know, 68 of mexico was indigenous languages language because they own languages that are in danger of extinction. some of disappearing. it is very sad because when the

language does a culture dies with what i show, my gosh tonight she's going to dedicate to some to her mother nature. oh cool man. when did you, when i return to my home village, everything is different because my parents don't speak spanish when i'm there. i speak mondays of language and you're some 600 kilometers away lives the mountain village of july, who told to pick people here with a modest life a world apart from maria's glamorous life. but the conversations over the family kitchen table will always be familiar. maria's mother has lived here all her life, but she encouraged her daughter to see the world. so little they know my mom says she's proud and that it's a good thing that other people get to hear all language link. maria rena had to finance or singing studies with side jobs as a may the never the less or successful give hope to others little minds will meet

the others. i think the mostly special thing is to be an inspiration to other indigenous women who are pursuing their goals and dreams get into leaders and the socialist way. and you'll see that in the senior wilson perform on stage in new york city. she wants to wear a traditional scarf showing where she comes from, is important to her. but many mexicans turned their backs on their homelands when they moved to the us in search of a better life. the risk losing their native meet your language will do. loraina says music has brought her closer to her roots. she performs in traditional dress and says that it's part of our story telling, bundled almost uh when we go up into the mountains, there are many colors and flowers that we encounter on the way before it is shown by these secular. since the multi, i've got put back in mexico,

the reality is somewhat contradictory. while indigenous cultures seem to be celebrated in public life with markets feel a fund the crafts, most indigenous people live in poverty and neglected by the state. i but this the see says thank you then. yes, some aspects have been for gossen lucky glasses of yours. okay. but here's thanks to people like muddy at a nice as well as one that's all work is made visible. explain in the midst of the whole these days, maria rena is in a position to financially support her parents to give something back to them. she hopes that music will make a difference and give others the courage to follow her path. oh, good god, i can't get a number without. oh it's we sending seats to out. in my case it's with music.

you'll come by singing in my native language. i want to inspire children and young people. i want to show them that it can open dorsey i'm ready to come in. no problem. my dear. it's almost night and i fear well ritual before maria rena leaves the village before everyone says their good byes. the family gathers to pray to mother s. i'm the going them through. why didn't help them good? is this bella? we asked mother, but nothing happens to maria. of this done, we can train and she's able to keep up her singing. i'd like to see how the land declared that everything works out for her in the city, no bus, and not a place in the suit up. back in mexico city, maria ramos concert begins with the song dedicated to her mother. she thinks that 12 her mother is far away. she has are close to her heart. the, the audience doesn't need to be able to understand the mission, lyrics,
