[applause] that's the way it was in the not so ancient of days for women. the big hurdle was to get that first job. once a woman got the job, she did at least as well as the men so the second job wasn't the same obstacle. there's a wonderful book with me mention that it's called first and it's a biography of sandra day o'connor. she was very high in her class at stanford law school but no law firm would hire her. she was asked to type and maybe there would be at least as a

it has nothing to do with columbia. columbia has really been intriguing. although the peace treaty has resulted in laying down of arms, it has also resulted in a lot of people coming back to their territories, their homelands and their home areas in columbia and looking for work. one of the results has been searching for the opportunity and one of those opportunities has been logging deforestation. columbia is caught in a twist in between. there is been a great impact. a great interest in the creation of larger protected areas by president santos. we are seeing a real increase in the number of protected areas. at the same time, an increase in deforestation. one of the things that is happening in columbia, led by the government of columbia in the military of columbia, trying to provide employment opportunities to those people that have weighed down their weapons for reforesting. there is an area in the western side of columbia where there is a major reforestation effort that is actually being financed. cis involved in another organization. a great employmen

red needle -- of columbia threadneedle.hek: saudi would perhaps reduced to similar levels going into 2020. there's no reason why they should go away from that. seeing from the meeting clearly is that they want higher oil price, but at the same time, they don't want to take all of those cuts that they took in 2019 themselves. alix: to that point, if you take a look at what opec is producing, what the quota was, and what saudi is doing, they are obviously cutting the most, but they are saying to russia, we will let you take out of your quota and we will make sure to cut, but you've got to comply. is that the horsetrading you are hearing? abhishek: it is. it is a quid pro quo, at the end of the day. they do realize that markets are not balanced in 2020, and that oil needs to be taken out. in our balance, we initially said that that oil will perhaps be taken out by saudi oil compliance. iran and iraq perhaps doing a little bit of compliance. what we heard from ann marie there is that saudis are not ready to take that burden of

a congressman with the ruling democratic center party and also in bogota sergio in his direct at columbia risk analysis which provides for consul colombia's political and security situation hello everybody. you saw there the comments from protesters in the streets we recorded them just a few hours ago and they spoke to the stream specially when you know who is out on the streets who is striking are you surprised by the morality of protests. yeah and he actually the diversity of the protest is something that gives the protest a lot of strength but it's also something that makes the protest week because the number of demands and the number of requests the objectives of the protests tend to be diffused among such a large group of people and so i'm just thinking at manual you have been out by you have been striking what do you want to happen. well. first of all if you're going to expression of an indignation that had been a long time and indignation again. i'd say the things i'd like to see have heard when. the main reforms that the government is trying to introduce and are worth only. the go

i took this one from the columbia, missouri paper. notice here that americans are being reminded that they need to pledge to help with the effort. it shows some of the countries that have famine conditions, shortages, and places that were already receiving aid. it was used to educate public about problems. and it was called, and every newspaper, the hunger map to emphasize the starvation. image ran in the columbia paper on christmas day trying to emphasize the need for sympathy. to supplement earlier efforts, hoover released a memo in 1919 explaining why aid. i want to read a little excerpt from it, because i think it gets at how he was trying to sell this to the u.s. population. "why we are feeding germany. from the point of view of my western upbringing, i would say it once because we do not kick a man in the stomach after we have licked him. from the point of view of a governor, i would say it's because famine breeds anarchy. anarchy is infectious. from the point of view of the humanitarian, i would say we have not been fighting wi

and a country like columbia, one has tried to diversify and consolidate markets.f the u.s., it is our number one trading partner. we're on a permanent basis exploring opening markets for different products. this year, we will have for the first time the export of colombian green peppers. we know are also exporting aggregated value transformation products. we have also opened in the u.s., lately, the avocado market. so we're trying to identify new products that can access the market and generate a positive impact. but regarding the asian market, in particular china, i was on a mission maybe a month and a half ago, and we reached two very important results, maybe three. the first was that we opened the banana sector for colombia. that means we're going to get at least $40 million per year of bananas that are bought in the chinese market. we also opened the ground for the colombian avocados in china. we're now working on opening the beef sector pretty soon. and we have also made big calls on china's investors to identify projects in columbia where they can put resour

i find fascinating really about this petition is that these are petitioners from the district of columbia and at this period in time, 1877, when the -- when this petition was signed, voters -- there were no voting rights in the district of columbia. something else that's really interesting about this petition is that it is signed by two of frederick douglass's children, including frederick douglass jr., at the top of the men's column, and rosetta douglass-sprague, who signs as mrs. nathan sprague, second from the top on the women's column. all of the documents that we've looked at so far in this exhibition are in the holdings of the national archives, and the national archives preserves them for future generations. and i think it's really spectacular that a petition that you send to congress today, just as these african-american petitioners did in 1877, becomes part of the national archives holdings, and we're really fortunate that we have it here today to help tell the story. so thus far on this tour, we've seen lots of petitions. and women, when they were pressing for their voting right
