a screen is motivation for the young wrist that to keep going. and she also has a message for her. he is, stay strong, independent, and never be afraid to fight for you when things go get him. who of the african continent is rich with diverse traditions. it's unique and deeply rooted in history . yet the legacy of colonialism has left its mark. influencing how these traditions are preserved and practice even today, that can be from language to cultural customs or even oral culture. for stories your parents or grandparents told you when you are young. but can we find a balance between what entity and core traditional values? well, my colleague, it is combined me is a new condos, capital compiler for this week, straight to bass. and a panel give a very insightful take on this. the hello and welcome back to the submit to set up a set street debate this week. we

a back and you've done this capital of compiler. now this is a city that's steeped in traditional culture, but you wouldn't know that walking around because like many capitals across africa, it's also living in a more than time. today we're asking a applicant call to the risk of being erased in the quest for globalization. so in your find me, what role does culture play? it plays a role in he comes to discipline, lead comes tomorrow as when he comes to where of behavior. i know like me, i can speak with on, you know, i to and i mean know, then you're going to can speak the language. but why i might be able to do all this because my father told to me from day one, if you do not need to annual and reapply him, i'm fine, you're going to get a smack when your head. so if you're speaking of this at the end, because really does a speaking of them that you should be with young people, the issue is actually with them that okay. so before, before we addressed the issue in totality, i just want to understand, you know, because not everybody lives in a cultural home. so what does that look like for you? is that when you are having best days, is it when these marriages, when do you really feel this culture?

cochise actually felt during traditional ceremonies that is doing in the corner where they're calling nicole among the agenda, which i do send them average. so the only time i would know that let me see exist properly is in this i just didn't emerge. if you come dressed in your skinny punch, i will actually send you over. but you cannot tell me to come for a grand putty and you expect me come just, you know, go may see what are you trying to him because that specified ya shown us are going to say, is the traditional offer traditional your gun done? gave me, i'm all right, so let's move to phrase here for a little bit because you come from an extremely traditional home and what a key is talking about here is nothing new for you, right? but you have a very different interpretation of you tell us a little bit about that. i've gone up in a home that's very, very traditional. you have to kneel when you agreed, you have to kneel when you solve, as opposed to speak. your language is opposed to it's so culture to a point that they've been gender roles attached to men and women because of call to, you know, culturally a mind is like a good. we see him as he's up that. and so if i'm talking to him,

mind i'm going to be kneeling. that particular parts of the chicken, the only the mine it's yeah. some verses of the back. yeah. i'd have to think i'm putting up with a couple a so good. have everything go, go to the, send them out, get everything there for like a need. but then when you tell me, go back to the village reach britney can he's going to told me to go to a good thing. we okay. so, this is interesting. so in order for culture 3 group, it has to be hardship too much more than conveniences is not good for culture cream to kind a. all right? oh wow. wow. well, let me come to you, andrew, because when we was speaking, you made the point that's look, what are we even defending? the problem is that most of the terms are not talking about codes. a netflix, all you talk about it. it traditional way we talk about to, to a, to where, at, for example, like we may tell you that we are in the cartridge center because the couple of vets and, but codes hayes more than that. it's the 4 digits. what we say is though we talk so when you look at africa, since you are quite a nice or those he has back and you look had to,

you look at to africa to what exactly are we trying to praise? of like, i mean, we're having this conversation in english 1st that has, and 15 of codes, 15, both college i use language ids. if we are having this conversation in english, what are we still trying to defend? okay. let me ask a question, when we talk about culture, it's just the general evolution of, of people. so when you say previous cultures, when does a previous culture and then begin now the previous call. so i would say is how they used to be here in the past days. right now it's an if alicia and are you in error the season is if you a this i never, i never really shouldn't happening right now. so as africa, dishes and stuff, the blame game of the worst time called sizing for wasting us. we have these very resources, we have the internet, we have all these things. i, i get to point. all right, face example i reading, call tone the oh. and this is all they are so test. so these people who can before us eroded culture and now the blaming modernization because all of known as

cultural altera is go messy them with shanna that console. and if he's telling me today, you want us to wear gloves and we'll come make it okay, that's the, that's henry henry henry, that's a good question. i just want to come to for a 2nd because there's an important point. the faith is really raising that will also adapt to a what to down version was some kind of culture. so, so what do you have to say to that, you know, look into the future. should we blame young people for not taking on what we now know as our culture? i think we're not comfortable with the v p, but we have to blame the international communities which has come up to unify. you couldn't get to global who to, to know me. i was punished place for speaking my local down, which you know, those days there's no to put the address when you yeah it. but the new thing to get that to a phone speaking, go look along with the new compound. so yeah, that's what to did come by and african along with these local along with this in particular, i mean let me ask refund. important questions here, which is that, yes,

what is the importance of these simple things of, of oh are you guys can see when each of the so what is the importance of all of these symbol was in culture that you can, has a king, a king as the older rule, so it does have a pleasant modern society, but it doesn't have to be too rigid to change some of the practices you understand . so now when i show up for patsy in my high sleeve dress and dates, which edition of i think it shouldn't be a crime that i'm not wearing a good, messy. i think it's fair to say that so far, what we are agreeing on is that the call to sort of seeps into one another, right? we adopt and we let go of some, and we adults in black gold from if we allow so many things to die out and sort of full by the wayside. what's going to support rates us from europeans from asians, from americans, africa was set up to forget to go to. i don't know if they intended it, but they offer kind of setup. when most african countries usually have the twin

city, which is usually more developed and yeah, that is, that people come in and start talking to get at the moment you started mixing. it's so hard to maintain that coach when you, you're mixed up. so it's always up to everyone, we use that tool to actually maintain codes that i told him no. does that okay? how's we conclude? can you prove this way to do that? as we conclude, i want to ask a simple question, how do we make sure that we're not losing the best possible culture to west and that they shall not to globally be? so let me just ask a few henry, black people we need do curriculum that raises assess themes, the black people. it's very unfortunate because i don't want to know for me to call you and deal with it, which country in europe and countries i've adopted. i've got new credit cards, i don't know whether it went twice ever seen yours, then that is, even though is why using for election, you know, for your, i understand the best, you know, so you monitors, for example, you have been the best then with our, our addition to your mothers. so my concern is well really go ever seemed to,

there was then, whereas if we do, we do not exist. i've tried it. alright. so kia, how do we retain our african identity and culture even as we participate in the global? well, the best way to do this is let's accept that there's a lot of change happening as africans gets something that you identify ourselves with. what we believe as we know that is that the way we eat the way we dress and have each moving forward. and this comes from the roots of our parents right at home. let's start with blaming that were sent call. so the i called say is beauty for like ladies and gentlemen, how would you say somebody told you what causes a, do you know if one's culture is between you to accept that and make our speech, it has to be a bus that does that. we want to see it. and finally, under the beginning we did say that you said, you know, what is it to preserve, having had everything that's been said, have you changed your mind to left? when we say that african coach has being influenced, we don't have to forget that african coattails or say influenced people elsewhere.

like today. people are listening to other to about for beats. chris brown, is there anything god forbid, music and no because they are listening to what a freight k is doing, and they're trying to do it. so we are, as we are being influenced us the influence thing, someone. all right, thank you very much. well, we did ask if the applicant culture is being erased or being threatened by western a zation. and the answer today is of culture is the process of doing a teaching. but what i did here as well, is that what i mean not new to more set in another way. he who leaves the culture is a slave. thank you for to the where you're headed. every culture is beautiful and it is up to us. and even me to make sure that we're not losing the best parts of our culture to modernization. have you heard about none the bins? they will fame as business women from toko actors in the lucrative dutch western

trade in the 196219 eighties. besides fair, brilliant expertise in the international trade, we will also known for the love of expensive cars. specifically the machine has beens. in total us capital low may, we meet one of the defendants who is using social media to gain young people's interest. from amazon soon is a direct descendant of the same us, not vince, a group of women who have dominated the traits since the 1960 to colonial, in advance or stable. firstly, the non events have brought a profound meaning to the fabric by giving them names. nicole and other than that, for example, if you want to get married and you can choose a fabric called the family on the funding to proposal matthew a cup of or you can choose one called my husband is capable moines law. he should see up on the didn't know to the left. in fact, there are many names for february that are based on the need seems to get some up

front in the nun events how truly given a deep and unique meaning. and they have brought a certain prestige to the fabric procedure of all the none of them just begun importing and whole tailing walks or dot trucks, lublix the and tough in euro's period. and success led them to dominate the market and become highly respected. because in the country, but the successful, the double edits, ford for introduced to fabrics. cute, local production. so much. so that's plumbing, not make 6 to con tense reminding young audiences of walks between still believes was sick. there was a more if you don't want to dominate, it'd be, it was really obvious for me to bring my business to take talk because i feel that the younger generation, when it's our human motive sign in the test, not really know about african fabric junction missing you properly, so when equal create a new friend,

so not really interested in it. so i thought why not re introduce african fabric to them to make them loved? what is my make them where it took to should i should in this now a generation of lux print specialist, i are producing into a whole and using social media to markets to go as the center of walks fabrics in west africa like just local a well known can exist. yes, african fashion exists and through my travels, i have noticed that your appear in or american luxury brands are greatly inspired by africa. the last 3 you plan on my team. yeah. and what seems to me, they take our materials and use our fabrics on it. but i want to make africans understand that we need to start wearing made in tell, go, or made an effort made and silver was mentioned, africa. that's good,

because that's where everything is happening. local to a certain cartoon is produced here that everything is made here or not. we have the best rule materials. but why can't we consume locally qual, navy? i can come in at thompson and just logo just to, to good lead walking to elevate the profile of west african design and bring work streams production. oh, wow. such beautiful fabric. maybe i should consider making a us from such material. now we've asked you on our instagram, where the traditional clothing is part of your day to day style. 25 percent said they would drop it every day. well, 56 percent said yes, but only for family events that i agree to. coming from the movie on myself, i love seeing headed a woman with a traditional clothing at the wedding. so any social event, now the remaining 19 percent said that is not their style. thanks to everyone who

participated in that pole. now the cockle my refugee camp in kenya is home to more than 288000 refugees and asylum seekers from different countries on the continent. when you leave your home, small traditions can be extra central to suffice. and so connect you to a family even from a far that is exactly what i must, a bit is doing through embroidering, beautiful, but she's a tradition from south. so don assessment is making the lives of waiting for time, especially for women. if you recall the mining social then kind of a unit, 1st thing you need to live alone, cooking and it's not making me laugh. practiced by the equity, didn't she look a new uh, the craft of embroidering batch, its own maliah is passed on from generation to generation, from mazda to door, to even hundreds of kilometers away from the homeland in the refugee camp of good

to my in northern kenya, young south to denise women still spend a days stitching away at the intricate design making realize it shows that it is best for your mother that she really thought to invest away as a woman. i'm making this mellow songs a symbol of i'm of the, in those when the money you, you have something to show that to them with these. i'm ready for my my name is anna, submit me social studies. i came to discount with my mother front of you yesterday as well. that was in 1994 having spent 30 as in the refugee camp. i know went to school here and even studied social work through an online university. but her refugee status doesn't allow her to leave the camp a proof of age and so her and brought to re skills, a lifeline. making this bid should we keep them as, as, as women. because sometimes when you say when there is a, there is a few new you and you to,

of monday's and then you set funding for customer. it's like savings. one, me lie, i can take over a month to complete. and while not everyone in the refugee camp can afford a new one, i'm not even rent out time elias or sells them to customers traveling a broom. what drawn and designed by local artist the signature flowers don't most to me lie as the most the person, those features. however, i remind us of the cultural regions. this is for my mother. i kept this that should long time this deborah a single as a kind of total honeywell, that you have. well, in order to have those here as a single, if you need the strength on hold of his inmates this my on, i made it myself accidentally for home, for my children, and we, because of it, a lot of moves, and we loved ms mace portion. so just let making, this is a symbol of, of being advocates on this before for the women here. it's this craft is that feeds

their families and pays the school fees. and for on a, it's a way of keeping the culture of south denise and her mother's tradition alive. and she is doing a beautiful job, keeping her tradition alive. but what is tradition if we do not protect our environment and its deep cultural heritage that it contains? because it is a hidden gen, surrounded by breathtaking landscape overflowing with rich cultural diversity and boasting or unique history. however, that beauty is slowly being swallowed by plastic waste. a social enter printer has now come up with a clever initiative and is reusing the waste. take a look. what comes to because the company, total soft cube is the democratic republic of congo overlooking the cube, a moderate climate, and slash of green hills. this is the was once regarded as will cover with the beautiful sudley. the city is chalked with the reverse of plastic lids, really flowing into that cute. this plastic comes from corn level because this is

whether so was, is the capital welcome to race? so this is why it comes from, from plastic buds to bottles. this kinds of plastic pollution is reading the email just big service will cover even was, it contributes to the collapse of filed a varsity. and this is a huge concern for you called many, many officials that we eat in just the bags that we throw in to the next. we go into these fits so we probably can view macro plastics and end up slowly. poisoning, also the social into pretty one he called me in and then it was inspired by hometown, struggles with plastic west and phone, did the company, plastic full time, trash into valuable items. mine was empty shoes, dream looking a year or 5, but maybe in 10 years or more is to have in green and sustainable city where most of the materials used for construction is recycled and left to hill. uh,

his soul seems 2020 and the close workshop has been filled with the repayment. lots of tools the on the going to just love to have real employees. this is on the men we make furniture um chairs, sofas, show goods from the trash cans, la part of the crate. the object flooded. we have posters and other ward, the gratian objects, we make them from bags fly by shoes or bags, as well as sleep. i do about move similar efforts up have to make a couple of clean, but not nearly enough in decent, but 202326. people died of that differential range flooded phones because the drain, a ton of soap, locked by, garbage, just kill up and recycled. more plastic holes begun making plastic breaks. also, at the moment we are experimenting with interlocking breaks made of 100 percent recycled or upside was plastic? it's true that we took a risk and had some setbacks,

but we now have 2 prototypes for our next product. this terrorist mid, almost entirely from plastics models, is the current chrome to open the costs, the dream to ton plastic waste into something be fitting the beauty multiple covering the dream of assess tentatively run, say to may still be in the making us nicole, them in a mid as walk so far has proven how much small companies with fewer resources, but the bone less creativity can do for the future roof off because the fastest growing an important note from all of this is the tradition connects us to our route and the values passed on through generations, nobody can erase who you are and it is up to you on what parts of tradition you want to keep or even pass on to others. and that is a rep to this week show. if you liked it, you can find more content on social media channels. log on and tell us what you think. it is now time for me to go, but i will leave you with a final song. you should get it by giving me. i love it and angrily to jo until
