but the l g b think use the whole room and drag queens, smashed it back and made it a term of empowerment. hello, kings and queens. don't have to be royal to carry yourselves with bride and grace. the ward queen has travelled through history carrying layers of meaning today. it's more than just a tied to it. for monica, it's a celebration of pop identity and community. that's exactly what we'll be looking at is that literal, but also the symbolic meaning of every sense of the word. my name is 5 to become a low. she welcome to the show. coming up on the show and easy will be out with, with fearless girls gliding across the box with a grace and got without a sick slip to cape town where i dropped out is active is like a 5 the 5. so the rights of clear people and last but definitely not least we

turned in nigeria. wow. queen shut off. he was on an exclusive talk of delay st. ready to meet the queens of the streets of these above us. well, i'm good about fellows, girls, and i appreciate the time is is really fine. and what it means to be as cater in ethiopia led by. so it's an i tell a lot, but e. c, o, p and goes, caters, are causing their plays in a male dominated sport. it's more than just catering for the girls. this is about breaking knobs, building community. i'm showing the wall that both mass and grace can roll side by side. they're stylish, they're daring. big chick slip back to then you can kick up the rest in the traditional have basic, can we use these ethiopians data girls are on a mission bigger than taking over the years. tough pipe. their re defining skating . and just uh, by those, we're how the show we have a lot of cultures,

norms and everything like it's not that much inviting regarding to this kind of research to support 26 year old. so seen a child has been skating for 9 years and remembers a time when she was the only girl tearing up the streets. boxes in my cousins like we use this, marcia of water bosses and i'm trying to stand on it. and then like we push each other and then we still do that. so i like that. do i saw a skateboard like that? the boys were like security and was fine. so in search of a cruise so. so, you know, founder did the ethiopian girl skate as in 2019. that was the easy part. but convincing other girls to join it was hard to then mustering a 360 flip. when i asked the girls, like whenever i asked them, you want to try this or blah, blah, there's kind of willie. but whenever the boys are like trying to approach them with the cable or they kind of not ok, sounds like maybe if i start teaching one of the girls,

they be so happy. so whenever i go there, like i give them ice cable, then i start bringing additional state boards with me. gradually, a small group of intrigues like minded girls are riley to ron. so see, you know, and they started meeting up once a week these days on most weekends they can be found at escaped box in just a by girls and young women are encouraged to join. i get them on the social media. sometimes i watch them there. and i was interesting to to escape one day i so voice kidding around and i want to join them and ask them about skating. and they told me there is a session for girls to lease on saturday with more than 20 active members and 56000. although as on instagram ethiopian girl skate does on not just to prove that trends such as they and take on skates. quoting may be different from the

grungy male dominated california based origins of the sport, but the ethiopian girl skate does have something special and it's there. while the international media attention has also raised to their profiles, gaping seems to keep the girls from the ground it, except of course, when they're catching some air on a off by to learn kidding, you have to send. so many times said you have to not give up on skating. so it's pardon me patients. he can see this for assessing us skating has become a road to building a community and creating shots as for women and girls. and while society and their family might have been skeptical at 1st, but siena believes that it takes just a few trail blazers to lead the way. we are us of like a daughter of a very ribbon is a sisters. so certainly we should have to be a little bit of, you know,

reliving rebellious to do something crazy or to do something for others. so you know what? and so our parents is gonna say something. everybody is going to say something until they so a successful. they may not be the route you rebels of skateboarding we recognize from tv, but with the distinctive outfits cool, has thousands of moves and ability to roll with a crew. the opium girl skate has probably have more in common with skating origin than most of those is he opened scanner. queens are certainly coming out of their plays with grace and determination. but let's go ahead and one fall back into the intriguing irene of women. sports in was that big of a to queens from the african continent has always been celebrated for the excellence behind the chairs and put them finishes life. another story, the dark side of high performance boards where the presence of success opened.

a very hardworking athlete. very persistent. she gave a lot for the country for swimming, for the sports in the country. but just because a limping dream felt a go nice in the show, in qualifying just for 2nd separate to have from lying up with swimming. biggest task in really the disappointment of questions for them. is it good to say about the last on? no, no, i 5 feel pretty simple. now i have support on the one hand, but it wasn't enough uh its own season. the sequel died this, the falls at the bottom, the motivated me and with the loss of my coach. but it'd be good to santos. i went into depression of things he moved for you. what i resigned and i didn't know what to do with getting on board all sort of it was besides entering the because i was only a few seconds away from the olympic minimum qualifying time. what's the most of the

b, t, q, class, individuals and young woman like for your kazi, my cache are particularly vulnerable. as a young woman living in south africa, fishing females, they not really, really much. given the proper education, you know about how economic inequality also disproportionately affects women limits of access to quality health care. many feel pressured into relationships with older men, often without access to protection bots, promising clinical trials exploring injectable h ivy medication could be a game changer. patients receive injection every 2 or 6 months as opposed to taking bailey post. i'm still young, it's only old people that will you know, keep the discipline of always having to remind themselves that okay, i need to dream that be it was you know, so yeah, i'm young as as my feet oh for dates, experts say injectable prep,

eliminates meeting to carry or take polls, probably keep reducing the stigma associated with h i. v. prep can also be used without apartments cooperation. this is particularly important when a woman is violence from the pop. now, if she asked them to use a condom research as like angela timble say, these factors could revolutionize h i v prevention. the ability is because of the social and economic spaces in the country. they have least access to economy benefits because of cultural issues as well. the girl child is often forgotten in the household. you find that they make very bad decisions with regards to older partners. and also in terms of the social activities, way they come to condom to 6. and even in some cases, multiple partners as a, as a, as a way to make on income in south africa. the clinical trials are underway for long acting drugs called lin, a cup of beer and tablets hargrove year. however, they all hurdles to overcome. while prep has been used successfully and homosexual

my communities. among the unknowns, there's one fact long acting, a chevy. medication is currently more expensive than daily pulled presently on the market. guessing the drug to remote communities will also be a challenge. a realistic timeline to get these injectables at a fair price to people who need it. i mean, it depends on how hard we want to fight and how much we want to be an advocate, realistically speaking, 10 to 15 years. that's when we'll have access to these things. if we do it the right way, while advances in a try be treatment or promising. i mean deep groundbreaking, house officials are still wary according prep. i'm other long accident drugs. so the blended from fighting for health, a credit in south africa. we step into a world of an apologetic, self expression and cultural pride. me bringing back a far as the the moment, africa of drug who embodies the sierras,
