0:00:00.785,0:00:03.840
Njiani kufika hapa,

0:00:03.840,0:00:07.542
nilikuwa na mazungumzo mazuri na [br]mtu aliyekuwa anakaa pembeni yangu kwenye

0:00:07.542,0:00:10.562
ndege. Alinambia [br]

0:00:10.562,0:00:13.805
"Hamna kazi tena USA,

0:00:13.805,0:00:16.073
yaani sasa wamebuni kazi mpya:

0:00:16.083,0:00:21.373
mwanasaikolojia wa paka,[br]mzungumzaji wa mbwa,msasi wa kimbunga."

0:00:21.373,0:00:24.453
Punde, aliniuliza,

0:00:24.453,0:00:27.132
"Kwani wewe unafanya kazi gani?"

0:00:27.132,0:00:29.722
Nikamjibu, "Mjenzi wa usalama?"

0:00:29.722,0:00:33.025
(Vicheko)

0:00:34.355,0:00:38.985
Kila siku, nafanya bidii [br]kuwazidishia wanawake sauti

0:00:39.445,0:00:42.925
na kuoneysha maisha yao na michango yao

0:00:42.925,0:00:45.722
katika hatua za kutafuta usalama [br]na kutatua migogoro,

0:00:47.652,0:00:52.989
na kwa sababu ya kazi zangu, [br]natambua kwamba njia ya pekee

0:00:53.259,0:00:55.338
kwa kuhakikisha ushirikiano kamili [br]

0:00:55.338,0:00:58.928
wa wanawake duniani[br]ni kuchukua tena dini mikononi mwetu.

0:00:59.398,0:01:03.104
Sasa, jambo hilo ni muhimu sana kwangu.

0:01:03.164,0:01:06.914
Kama muislamu na mwanamke kijana, [br]ninaijali dini yangu sana.

0:01:07.974,0:01:12.095
Inanipa nguvu na msimamo katika [br]kazi zangu kila siku.

0:01:12.095,0:01:15.435
Ndiyo sababu inayoniwezesha [br]kusimama hapa leo mbele yenu.

0:01:15.965,0:01:20.199
Lakini siwezi kutojali hasara kubwa [br]zilizofanyika kwa kutumia jina la dini,

0:01:21.393,0:01:24.843
si dini yangu tu, lakini [br]dini zote kubwa za dunia.

0:01:25.243,0:01:30.401
Kuyatumia vibaya na[br]kuyageuza maandiko ya kidini

0:01:30.744,0:01:34.034
kumebadilisha desturi zetu [br]za kijamii na kitamaduni,

0:01:34.074,0:01:36.570
sheria zetu, kila siku zetu,[br]

0:01:36.570,0:01:39.910
hadi kumefikia tusipoweza [br]kupagundua.

0:01:39.910,0:01:45.280
Wazazi wangu walihama Libya, [br]Afrika ya Kaskazini kwenda Kanada

0:01:45.280,0:01:47.340
mwanzoni mwa miaka 1980,

0:01:47.340,0:01:50.994
na mimi niko katikati ya watoto 11.

0:01:51.251,0:01:53.211
Ehee, 11.

0:01:53.721,0:01:55.115
Lakini katika kukulia kwangu,[br]

0:01:55.115,0:01:59.635
niliwaona wazazi wangu, wote wacha Mungu [br]na waumini wa Akhera, wakisali na

0:01:59.645,0:02:01.925
kumshukuru kwa baraka zao,[br]

0:02:01.975,0:02:05.915
kama mimi, lakini zinginezo pia. [br](Vicheko)

0:02:07.015,0:02:10.105
Walikuwa na huruma, wenye kuchekesha, [br]na wenye subira,

0:02:10.105,0:02:15.285
subira kubwa, aina inayofunzwa[br]kwa kuwalea watoto 11.

0:02:16.021,0:02:17.651
Pia walifanya haki. [br]

0:02:18.421,0:02:21.971
Sikuwahi kupaswa kuijua dini kwa [br]mtazamo wa kitamaduni tu.

0:02:22.741,0:02:25.071
Nilitendewa sawasawa na kaka zangu,[br]na sisi sote

0:02:25.071,0:02:27.441
tulikuwa tunatarijiwa [br]kufanya sawasawa.

0:02:27.461,0:02:31.987
Sikuwahi kuambiwa kwamba Mungu [br]huhukumu tofauti kwa jinsia.

0:02:32.917,0:02:39.759
Wazazi wangu walimwona Mungu kuwa [br]Mwingi wa Rehema, Fadhila na rizki

0:02:39.779,0:02:42.469
na mimi nilichukulia [br]msimamo wao.

0:02:43.090,0:02:46.380
Kwa uhakika, malezi yangu yalikuwa [br]na faida zake.

0:02:46.870,0:02:51.120
kuwa katikati ya watoto 11 [br]ni kama Diplomasia 101. (Vicheko)

0:02:52.312,0:02:55.272
Mpaka leo, watu huniuliza wapi[br]nilipokwenda skule,

0:02:55.272,0:02:57.648
kama, “Ulienda Skule ya [br]Kennedy ya Serikali?"

0:02:57.648,0:02:59.398
na mimi huwatazama na [br]kuwambia, “Hapana,

0:02:59.417,0:03:02.527
Nimeenda Skule ya Murabit ya [br]Mambo ya Kimataifa.”

0:03:02.577,0:03:07.691
Ni maalum sana. Ungeongea na [br]Mamangu kwa kujipatia nafasi

0:03:08.081,0:03:10.631
Lakini kwa bahati yenu, yupo leo.

0:03:11.971,0:03:16.141
Lakini kuwa miongoni wa watoto 11, [br]na kuwa na ndugu 10,

0:03:16.248,0:03:19.678
kunafundisha mengi kama [br]mifumo ya mamlaka na muungano.

0:03:20.148,0:03:22.557
Kama kuzingatia lengo; [br]useme haraka au

0:03:22.557,0:03:25.877
usiseme sana, kwa sababu [br]utadakiwa mazungumzo kila mara.

0:03:25.877,0:03:28.317
Kunafundisha umuhimu wa kuwa [br]mjumbe mzuri.

0:03:28.827,0:03:32.767
Uyaulize maswali kwa mpango kwa[br]kupata jibu unalolitaka, na

0:03:32.887,0:03:36.047
ujue kusema 'la' kwa mpango pia[br]kwa kufuliza usalama.

0:03:37.213,0:03:40.694
Lakini funzo muhimu sana[br]nililolipata kutoka utoto wangu

0:03:40.694,0:03:44.494
lilikuwa umuhimu wa kuwa na nafasi kwenye[br]meza.

0:03:44.744,0:03:48.135
Taa yake ndogo mamangu ilipovunjika,[br]alivyoipenda sana, ilinilazimu niwepo

0:03:48.135,0:03:52.655
wakati alipochunguza ilikuwaje, [br]ili nijitetee,

0:03:53.965,0:03:57.175
kwa sababu kama hupo, [br]lawama inakuangukia kwako,

0:03:57.175,0:03:59.761
na kabla hujagundua, utakuwa umeadhibiwa.

0:03:59.791,0:04:02.731
Kwa uhahika, sijapewa [br]adhabu mimi mwenyewe.

0:04:04.278,0:04:09.040
Nilipokuwa na miaka 15 mwakani 2005,[br]nikatimiza skule ya sekondari nikahamia

0:04:09.060,0:04:11.490
Kanada-- Saskatoon --

0:04:11.550,0:04:15.900
Ila Zawiya, Libya, [br]mji wa nyumbani wa wazazi wangu,

0:04:16.010,0:04:18.099
mji wa kidesturi sana. [br]

0:04:18.099,0:04:23.049
Fikiri, muda huo niliwahi kufika[br]Libya kwa ajili ya matembezi tu,

0:04:23.309,0:04:27.719
na kama msichana wa miaka 7,[br]ilipendeza sana.

0:04:27.779,0:04:32.331
Ilikuwa aiskrimu na pwani na jamaa[br]wenye furaha.

0:04:33.740,0:04:37.790
niligundua haiko vilevile kama [br]msichana wa miaka 15.

0:04:38.248,0:04:44.238
Nikakutana upesi na mambo ya dini ya[br]kiutamaduni.

0:04:44.676,0:04:48.946
Maneno ya "haramu" --[br]lenye maana ya kukatazwa kidini --

0:04:48.972,0:04:52.432
na "aibu" -- lenye maana ya kutofaa[br]kimaadili --

0:04:52.468,0:04:54.518
yalibadilishanwa bila mpango.

0:04:55.228,0:04:58.838
kama yalikuwa na maana moja na[br]adhabu moja vilevile.

0:04:59.618,0:05:04.238
Nikajikuta sana katika mazungumzo na[br]wenzangu wa skule

0:05:04.238,0:05:07.584
na wa kazi, profesa, rafiki zangu na hata [br]jamaa zangu,

0:05:07.594,0:05:11.644
nikaanza kujiuliza kuhusu desturi zangu [br]na malengo yangu.

0:05:12.304,0:05:16.164
Na hata na msingi mzuri niliopokea[br]kutoka wazazi wangu,

0:05:16.200,0:05:19.850
Nilijikuta nikajiuliza kuhusu nafasi [br]ya mwanamke katika dini yangu.

0:05:21.710,0:05:24.413
Kule kwenye Skule ya Murabit ya Mambo[br]ya Kimataifa,

0:05:24.437,0:05:27.307
tunapenda sana kufanya mjadala,

0:05:27.307,0:05:32.637
na sheria ya kwanza ni fanya utafiti wako,[br]na hivyo ndivyo nilivyofanya mimi,

0:05:32.647,0:05:36.247
Ikanishangaza sana vipi ilikuwa rahisi

0:05:36.247,0:05:40.275
kuwagundua wanawake katika Uislamu[br]waliokuwa viongozi,

0:05:40.275,0:05:43.765
wavumbuzi, wenye nguvu --

0:05:43.765,0:05:46.774
za kisiasa, za kiuchumi hata za kijeshi.

0:05:47.014,0:05:50.777
Khadija aliziendesha fedha za [br]harakati za Kiislamu

0:05:50.787,0:05:52.657
katika siku zake za mwanzo.

0:05:52.657,0:05:54.997
Tusingekuwepo hapa leo bila michango yake.

0:05:55.924,0:05:58.124
Kwa nini tusifundishwe kisa chake?[br]

0:05:58.144,0:06:01.234
Kwa nini tusifundishwe [br]visa vya hao wanawake?

0:06:01.254,0:06:03.624
Kwa nini wanawake wapewe vyeo[br]vilivyotoka

0:06:03.626,0:06:06.636
zama zilizotangulia mafunzo ya dini yetu?

0:06:06.636,0:06:09.286
Na kwa nini, kama sisi sote tuko sawasawa [br]machoni mwa Mungu,

0:06:09.296,0:06:11.966
hatuko sawasawa machoni mwa binadamu?

0:06:12.693,0:06:17.043
Hayo yalinipeleka kufikiria mafunzo [br]yangu ya utotoni.

0:06:18.232,0:06:22.052
Anayeamua, na kuwa na mamlaka [br]juu ya ujumbe,

0:06:22.082,0:06:24.702
anayo nafasi kwenye meza,

0:06:24.722,0:06:29.484
na kwa bahati mbaya, katika dini zote[br]za kidunia,

0:06:29.494,0:06:31.092
hao si wanawake.

0:06:32.462,0:06:35.212
Taasisi za kidini [br]zinatawaliwa na wanaume

0:06:35.242,0:06:37.222
na kuendeshwa na viongozi vya kiume,

0:06:37.242,0:06:40.542
na wanabuni sera zinazowafaa wanaume tu,

0:06:40.623,0:06:45.339
na ila tunaweza kubadilisha mfumo huo[br]kabisa, kwa kweli hatuwezi

0:06:45.339,0:06:47.759
kutarajia wanawake kushiriki[br]kwa ukamilifu

0:06:47.759,0:06:50.089
katika uchumi au siasa.

0:06:51.576,0:06:53.876
Msingi wetu umevunjika.

0:06:55.636,0:06:59.816
Mamangu husema, "huwezi kujenga nyumba[br]nzima juu ya msingi mbovu".

0:07:02.976,0:07:08.988
Mwakani 2011, Mapinduzi ya Libya yaliripuka[br]na aila yangu walikuwepo mistari ya mbele.

0:07:09.554,0:07:12.854
Kuna jambo moja la kushangaza[br]linalojitokeza katika vita,

0:07:12.903,0:07:15.473
kama mageuzo ya kiutamaduni,[br]kwa muda mfupi tu.

0:07:16.133,0:07:18.743
Kwa mara ya kwanza nilijisikia [br]ilikubaliwa, au hata

0:07:18.743,0:07:21.651
ilisisitizwa kwa mimi kujihusisha [br]na mambo.

0:07:21.651,0:07:23.591
Ilihitajika.

0:07:24.510,0:07:27.340
Mimi na wanawake wengine walipewa nafasi[br]kwenye meza.

0:07:27.350,0:07:30.570
Hatukuwa wasaidizi wa wanaume tu.

0:07:30.580,0:07:32.427
Tulichangia katika uamuzi.

0:07:32.427,0:07:35.547
Tulichangia katika kutoa taarifa.[br]Tulikuwa muhimu sana.

0:07:35.880,0:07:39.640
Na mimi nilitaka, nilihitaji mageuzo hayo[br]kutoondoka.

0:07:42.550,0:07:45.368
Lakini niligundua si rahisi [br]kuwa nilivyotaka.

0:07:45.368,0:07:49.170
Ilichukua wiki chache tu kabla hao [br]wanawake niliowafanya nao kazi

0:07:49.170,0:07:51.720
walikuwa wanarejea katika kazi zao za[br]zamani,

0:07:52.130,0:07:56.437
na wengi walipewa maneno ya[br]kusisitizwa

0:07:56.437,0:07:58.891
kutoka kwa viongozi wa kidini na [br]vya kisiasa, wengi wao

0:07:58.891,0:08:02.151
walijaribu kuthibitisha hoja [br]zao kwa maandishi ya kidini.

0:08:02.151,0:08:05.631
Ndivyo walivyojipatia mikono ya[br]watu katika hoja zao.

0:08:06.951,0:08:12.141
Mwanzoni, nilizingatia kuwapa [br]wanawake nguvu katika siasa na uchumi.

0:08:12.141,0:08:15.437
Nikafikiri ingeliongoza [br]mabadiliko ya kiutamaduni na kijamii.

0:08:15.765,0:08:19.565
Niligundua, ilifanikiwa kidogo tu, lakini[br]sio sana.

0:08:20.325,0:08:24.205
Nikaamua kuitumia njia yao wale[br]viongozi wa kidini

0:08:24.480,0:08:28.260
nikaanza kuthibitisha hoja zangu kwa [br]maandishi ya kiislamu pia.

0:08:29.320,0:08:33.221
Katika miaka 2012 na 2013, shirika langu [br]liliongoza kampeni ya pekee iliyokuwa

0:08:33.221,0:08:36.231
kubwa na pana kuliko zote Libya.

0:08:36.881,0:08:40.371
Tulipenyeza nyumbani, skuleni na [br]vyuoni, hata misikitni.

0:08:41.101,0:08:44.301
Tulizungumza na watu 50,000[br]uso kwa uso, na mamia ya maelfu zaidi

0:08:44.731,0:08:46.613
kwa njia za [br]matangazo ya kubandika,

0:08:46.613,0:08:49.163
matangazo kwenye tv na kwenye radio.

0:08:50.803,0:08:53.173
Labda mnajiuliza, shirika la[br]haki za wanawake

0:08:53.210,0:08:56.646
waliweza kufanya hivyo vipi katika jamii[br]ilyopingana na sisi

0:08:56.646,0:08:58.196
kabisa mwanzoni.

0:08:59.436,0:09:01.556
Niliyatumia maandishi ya kiislamu.

0:09:02.070,0:09:05.870
Nilitumia aya za Korani na misemo ya [br]Mtume Mohammed,

0:09:06.810,0:09:11.340
Hadithi zake, misemo yake ambayo ni,[br]kwa mfano,

0:09:11.780,0:09:14.865
"Mtu bora ndiye anayefanya[br]wema kwa familia yake."

0:09:14.875,0:09:18.008
"Usimruhusu mtu kumdhulumu mwingine."

0:09:19.148,0:09:24.068
Kwa mara ya kwanza, hotuba za Ijumaa [br]kutoka kwa imamu wa kienyeji

0:09:24.128,0:09:26.338
zilitangaza haki za wanawake.

0:09:26.338,0:09:29.506
zilizungumzia masuala yasiyo kawaida, kama[br]vurugu ya nyumbani.

0:09:31.016,0:09:33.336
Sera zilibadilishwa.

0:09:34.305,0:09:39.295
Katika jamii fulani, ilitubidi [br]kusema lile Azimio

0:09:39.295,0:09:42.445
la Kimataifa la Haki ya Wanadamu[br]mlilopingana nayo

0:09:42.445,0:09:45.082
kwa sababu haikuandikwi na watalaamu[br]wa kidini,

0:09:45.082,0:09:49.212
eti, misingi yote ile imo kitabu chetu.

0:09:49.975,0:09:53.005
Yaani, Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa [br]lilituiga tu.

0:09:56.365,0:09:58.936
Kwa kuubadilisha ujumbe wenyewe, [br]tuliweza kuitoa

0:09:59.026,0:10:02.566
sura mpya iliyotangaza haki za wanawake [br]Libya.

0:10:03.414,0:10:06.454
Ni jambo ambalo sasa limeigwa duniani,

0:10:08.554,0:10:12.439
na sisemi ni rahisi--- niamini, [br]si rahisi kabisa.

0:10:12.759,0:10:16.560
'Liberals' watasema unaitumia dini [br]na kukuita 'conservative' mbaya.

0:10:16.560,0:10:19.500
na 'conservatives' watakupa[br]matusi mengi.

0:10:19.994,0:10:23.990
Mimi mwenyewe nimeyapata mengi, kama [br]"Wazazi wako hawaaibiki na wewe?" --

0:10:23.990,0:10:26.151
sio kweli;[br]wao wananipenda kuliko wote --

0:10:26.151,0:10:28.801
au "Hutoishi kuona siku [br]yako ya kuzaliwa tena" --

0:10:28.801,0:10:31.031
tena sio kweli, nimeshaiona.

0:10:32.931,0:10:36.570
Na bado, ninaamini kabisa

0:10:36.570,0:10:40.380
kwamba haki za wanawake[br]na dini zinaweza kuendana.

0:10:42.461,0:10:45.561
Lakini lazima tupewe nafasi kwenye meza.

0:10:45.916,0:10:48.606
Tusiache kupigania [br]nafasi yetu, kwa sababu

0:10:48.606,0:10:55.316
kwa kukaa kimya, tunaruhusu mateso na [br]dhuluma za wanawake duniani kuendelea.

0:10:56.467,0:10:59.007
Kwa kudai tutapigania haki za wanawake

0:10:59.017,0:11:02.167
na kupigania ugaidi kwa kutumia[br]mabomu na vita,

0:11:02.907,0:11:06.947
tunaharibu jamii za kienyeji zinazohitaji[br]kuyashughulikia masuala hayo

0:11:07.556,0:11:10.866
ili yawezekane kuendelea.

0:11:11.806,0:11:15.820
Sio rahisi, kushindana na taarifa za dini [br]za kupotosha.

0:11:17.030,0:11:21.630
Utapata vyako vya matusi na dhihaka na [br]vitisho.

Lakini ni lazima ifanyike.

0:11:24.136,0:11:29.434
Hatuna budi ila kuuchukua tena [br]ujumbe wa haki za binadamu,

0:11:29.434,0:11:32.904
maadili ya dini yetu, si kwa ajili yetu,

0:11:32.904,0:11:34.591
na si kwa ajili ya [br]wanawake wenu tu,

0:11:34.591,0:11:36.061
si kwa ajili ya [br]wanawake humu leo,

0:11:36.121,0:11:38.741
hata si kwa ajili ya [br]wanawake kule nje,

0:11:40.101,0:11:43.434
bali kwa ajili ya jamii ambazo[br]zingebadilika kuwa nzuri

0:11:43.434,0:11:45.849
kwa mashirikiano ya wanawake.

0:11:46.489,0:11:48.649
Na jinsi ya pekee sisi tunavyoweza [br]kufanya hivyo,

0:11:48.649,0:11:50.389
njia yetu moja tu,

0:11:50.469,0:11:53.499
ni kupata nafasi na kukaa daima, [br]kwenye meza.

0:11:53.649,0:11:54.799
Asante.
