#APeoplesJourney: From Sit-Ins To Wade-Ins - Duration: 2:25.A day at the beach or public pool is one of America's great pastimes.
Simple pleasures often taken for granted but if you were one of several people in
the pool that the Monson Motor Lodge in St. Augustine, Florida on June 18, 1964,
you know something as simple as going for a swim once faced violent opposition.
On that day several African Americans and other protestors entered the pool and
the motel's manager James Brock poured acid into the water to get them out.
For African Americans the pleasure of swimming in public pools and beaches
was not always a right. African Americans were barred entry from many local
swimming pools and beaches during the Jim Crow era. Though white only beaches
were plentiful, only a handful of beaches and pools such as American Beach on
Amelia Island were available to African Americans, but even as public beaches and
pools began to desegregate following World War II, black use of public
swimming spaces was often met with state supporters intimidation and violence
Starting in the 1950s the National Association for the Advancement
of Colored People launched a nationwide call to action. Similar to the famous
lunch counter sit-ins these swim-ins and wade-ins challenged segregation in
public pools and beaches. In 1959 in Biloxi, Mississippi over 125 African
Americans gathered for a wade-in at a segregated beach in town and were
attacked by a violent white mob. The New York Times called it the worst race
riot in the state's history. The Mountain Motor Lodge swim-in was among the most
famous of these protests. Though the protestors were luckily
unharmed by the acid, the incident made global news and raised awareness about
the violence that African Americans often experienced fighting for full
equality. Protests at beaches and pools were among many events in the fight for
equal access to all aspects of American life that ultimately led president
Lyndon B Johnson to sign the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law. Alongside
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The law's passage made racial segregation
illegal in schools, employment and public accommodations like swimming pools and
beaches, helping ensure that the leisure enjoyed by many would be available to all.

Hector (Part 2) | Group Kid Vid Cinema - Duration: 3:01.You're watching Lifetree Kids!
It's early morning in the jungle village.
Hector is up and is getting water for the family.
Today, Hector and his mom and dad head into the jungle to find plantains for their family
to eat.
Plantains look like bananas but plantains don't taste as sweet.
You probably get your fruits and vegetables at a grocery store, but here they search through
the jungle to find what they need.
Hector's dad makes a strap that helps them carry the plantains back to the village.
Today they eat breakfast at a friend's house.
Hector gets ready for school.
He wears a school uniform.
At school, he helps clean the classroom with his classmates.
Sometimes, Hector and the rest of the students have to wait for hours for their school teachers
to arrive by boat.
Hector turns in his homework and begins his school day.
Somethings may not happen quickly when you live in a jungle village.
In the book of Psalms, chapter 27 verse 14, it says , "Wait patiently for the Lord."
Hector has learned to be patient and wait for the great things that will come.
God gives Hector, his family, and even his whole village a lot of patience.
God gives us patience!

Sh*t Trans People Deal With Every Day - Duration: 13:46.- You want a, you want another pillow?
(laughs) - We have quite a height difference.
How tall are you?
- I like to say I'm 5' 4", but I'm really not.
Oh look how tall I look now!
- Yeah!
Oh my god.
I used to say that I was 6' 4".
When I was like, stretching it a li'l bit 'cause I was like hehe I'm so tall.
And then I transitioned and I was like, I'm 6' 2".
(laughs) Which is like actually accurate.
- Hi, I'm Jackson Bird and today I am at VidCon and joined by...
- Riley J. Dennis!
- Woo!
So today we wanted to talk about some of the like smaller things that trans people encounter
and have to consider in their daily lives that cis people often don't think of so for
any of you out there who are cisgender this might be a kind of like, ohhh mhmm kind of
video Sometimes I don't have words I use sound effects
instead.
And for anyone who's trans uh this will hopefully resonate with you and you'll probably be looking
at your device being like, yes! finally!
They said it.
- You have to react like that.
You have to.
It's illegal not to.
- Illegal!
- Yeah.
- Wow.
I didn't look up the California laws.
I know you have a lot of weird laws out here.
- Yeah, it's a thing.
I just - we're THAT progressive.
- Speaking of traveling!
Going through TSA - Oh.
- That sucks.
- Yeah, ohhh that sucks a lot.
It's been really weird recently because I've started to pass more.
Uhm since starting hormones, I like sometimes pass as female and sometimes don't.
And I never really know - - Yes!
- which is which!
- I know because I don't pass all the time and I , it's so hard to know
- Yeah, exactly so I'm walking through TSA, unless one of them says like "ma'am" or "sir"
I'm like, I don't know!
And when I've walked through the body scanner, I don't know if they've hit the boy or the
girl button.
I'm just like, we're going to do this and see what happens.
- Which by the way, I feel like not even everyone knows that they hit a boy or the girl button.
When you go through the back scatter thing, like they have to assess if you are a boy
or a girl and they hit one and it looks for different heat sensitive areas on your body.
- They don't look at your ID and then choose something, it's like they just look at you
as you're walking in and they're like looks like that.
- It's really annoying for me that they don't look at your ID because I look very young,
as many trans guys do.
I had an experience recently where the guy checking my ID saw my ID and was like "oh
27, gettin' old, man!" and then I walk to the backscatter area where they haven't seen
my ID and they're like, "how old are you?" because you have to be 12 to go through the
backscatter.
- Oh my god so they thought you were like weren't even 12?!
- Yes, and that happens all the time.
- Oh my god, it's like you're a literal child.
- Yeah and but then also what happens, once people have assessed that you are not a 12
year old boy.
Then they're like oh you are a butch woman and so that's usually when trans masculine
people are then like...
- Misgendered.
- Read as female, yeah.
- I remember going through a thing and I like, you can see where it likes mark you uhm for
like you have an object here and it would like mark one in groin or like at my chest
and I'm just like, how did no one at TSA was like, maybe someone will come through and
have like boobs and a penis.
Like, that just never crossed their mind that like those people might exist?
- Yeah.
Those are the types of scans that now make me feel like a Ken doll.
Of like, I have no parts that will trigger something
- Yeah, you're just completely bare.
Just like, plastic.
- Yeah.
- And they have no idea like what that is.
Like, they're not trained on that in any way so they're just like just going about it like
it's normal and you're like ehhh-guhhh - Yeah!
They say that the TSA has been like briefed on uhm trans people and there's like some
stuff if you go to the TSA website on like what you're supposed to do, but I think what
has happened is they know what they're supposed to do if they encounter a trans person, but
they don't know what trans people actually look like.
- Oh you're so right.
People do that.
They think of trans people as a theoretical thing.
Like, well if I ever saw a trans person, like I'd be good to them.
I'd gender them correctly or whatever.
But then they see you and they're like well you're clearly a guy.
- Yeah.
- And I'm like, you're just not putting two and two together.
Like, this is a literal trans person in front of you.
- Yeah.
You were saying when you've gone to the UK and you have to go through extra customs with
your passport you've had issues.
- Yeah well it's just, yeah, it's just weird 'cause when I've showed them my passport they've
asked for like my old passport as well and which has like my old name and like my old
photo and stuff.
Then it like automatically outs me to the person so I mean if the passport control person
is transphobic at all that's already like a bias that they have against me.
Or even just showing them my regular passport, and them not thinking that I look female enough
to match like the F on my passport.
- Yeah.
Anytime you have to show someone an ID and whether it's like your ID has not been updated
or someone is not reading you as what your ID says which is your true name and gender,
you get all these other complicated things.
Like, at the TSA, if you had a complication going through the pat down and like people
around you heard something and you got outed in some way and then it's like, you feel like
you can't even go to the bathroom because y'know they're going to be watching you or
maybe they're going to be on your flight and then you have this like possibly transphobic
person on your flight the entire time.
- It's just not safe.
- No.
- The ID stuff happens everywhere.
Like, if you go into a club and you have to use like a ID that you had before you transitioned
or even if you use the one now and like the bouncer doesn't think that you look feminine
or masculine enough or whatever and then people know which bathroom you're going into - it's
like that situation occurs in so many places that I think people don't even realize it
or like I don't realize until I get to that situation and I'm like, shit I have to like
- Yeah!
- I have to show this stuff.
- The bartender or the bouncer like has a place of power over you
- Oh yeah.
- By having that knowledge of you, which is so weird.
- Yeah, no.
I don't like it.
- I don't like it either.
Speaking of bathrooms...
- Ohhh - Why?
-There's some nice bathrooms out there.
Aren't there?
- So like uh, plumbing is cool.
I'm getting the tile re-done in my bathroom.
- Yeah, oh that's very trans of you.
(laughs) - If you don't mind me asking
- How dare you?
- Like, when did you like start using the women's bathroom.
Do you always?
Like, how does it?
- It's weird at the moment.
Like I said, sometimes people read me as female and sometimes as male and so I've had situations
where I start to go into the guy's bathroom and the guy like taps me on the shoulder and
is like, women's bathroom is over there.
Or like, people will just like as I've walked in been like, wrong bathroom!
But then I also don't feel like I look feminine enough to go into a women's bathroom without
like making people feel unsafe or like getting yelled out or something.
Like, it depends on the situation.
Like, if I'm dressed really femininely then I feel like I can get into the women's bathroom
and just kind of like not look at anyone real quick and like do my thing and get out.
'Cause in those situations, I feel like it's less safe for me to go into the guy's bathroom.
'Cause if they see me wearing like feminine-ish stuff, they're some not great guys out there
and I, no.
I just, it's stressful.
I like, I just wanna pee.
I don't care which bathroom it happens in.
It feels like neither - Other people do.
- Yeah, it feels like neither one I can go into like without any stress.
In some way, going to the bathroom is going to be a very stressful situation.
- I basically I just go to the men's room now.
I have that privilege as a trans masculine person.
That usually happens sooner.
When I was just starting to transition, I was so scared to start using the men's restroom.
Especially when you haven't been in a men's restroom before, you don't realize like how
little anyone cares in there.
- Yeah.
- So I was just so scared like people would immediately think I was a woman and beat me
up, but I was increasingly like every time I went to a women's bathroom having like women
do like double takes - Yeah so it was like you couldn't be in a
women's bathroom, but also felt really awkward going into the guy's bathroom?
- Yeah and it, well it's similar to what you were talking about.
It's like, the priority is women are the oppressed minority here and we're trying not to make
women feel uncomfortable.
- I feel bad 'cause I'm like, yeah it sucks.
I know you don't want guys in there, but also, I'm not a guy and I don't know how to communicate
that to you in this brief like bathroom interaction we're having.
- Yeah.
- I would go to speak at colleges.
Everyone knows that I'm trans and that I'm a woman and stuff.
Can't go into the guys bathroom 'cause someone from my talk will be like, why are you in
here?
But then I can't go into the women's bathroom because someone else from the college will
be like, why are you in here?
So I'm just like, I'm not gonna pee for the whole time I'm here and I'm gonna give my
talk and be dancin' a little bit.
- That is a fact that I will share with uhm with cis people sometimes and they're minds
are blown of the fact that like there are higher rates of UTIs among the trans population.
- Oh yeah. - because we have to hold it in!
- yeah! - we like can't go!
- Speaking of public spaces where people get awkward about how we look, shopping for clothes!
- Ohh... yeah... no.
That's the worst.
- It sucks that shopping for clothes sucks so much because getting new clothes in that
affirm your gender is so much fun.
It is such a fun part of transition.
- It's so good.
It's so bad that you can't.
Like, you can't go do it on your own.
Like, a lot of times I've like recruited people to come with me and I'm like, if I'm with
other girls and it just looks like we're all like blending in and like looking for girls'
clothes then it's like fine.
I don't know what have you...
- Yeah, I mean, the problem is like guys don't like to shop for clothes together so...
I think for transmasculine people, we... similar with bathrooms.
We freak out about it a lot more than the reality actually is because if you're read
as a woman and you're shopping for women's clothes they're gonna think that you're shopping
for your brother or your boyfriend or even for yourself and that's okay because it's
okay for people to want to be masculine and it's okay for women to wear men's clothes.
- It's like more tomboy-ish - Yeah, but for trans feminine people...
- Yeah, it's just it's seen as creepy.
If someone who's read as male is looking for bras or panties or whatever, that has a very
like creepy gross connotation to it that's just like society has put on that and it's
like so trans women have a really hard time going to look for female clothes.
Even if they've like started hormones and have boobs and need a bra, it's like people
see you there and are like, mmm what are you doing?
So I've ordered a lot of stuff online.
- Yep, same.
- Yep.
Yep.
- But also that's another point of transmasculine privilege.
We are typically smaller, but hey there's a section that is still like our gender expression,
but just like little sized.
- Oh man.
There's like not clothes for trans women.
- Yeah!
- I've tried really hard.
If anyone knows of like good, inexpensive sites for trans women, let me know.
- Inexpensive. Operative word.
- Well there's some people will be like oh this site is great and they link me and it's
like two hundred dollar shirt and I'm like that sounds great, I will never ever buy that.
- I know like all of the like suits, the custom made like suits for like afab people, I want
so much, but soo much money.
- Feminine stuff doesn't work with like often trans women have smaller boobs, but larger
rib cages and so bras sizes are done by like cup and like the circumference around your
boobs. - Oh yeah.
And so a lot of times you need like a larger band, but a smaller cup size and those just
like don't really exist.
And also a lot of clothes like their shoulders aren't broad enough.
I mean, I'm just like a skinny person in general so there's never - and tall - so there's not
like clothing that's like skinny and tall enough to fit me ever, but...
- Is that why you cut your sleeves off 'cause your shoulders are just bustin' out.
- Yeah.
- Oh I was kidding! (laughs)
- Before I like changed my name on all my credit cards, I would get really paranoid
like I would have to think about should I pay with cash so that the cashier does not
like, I don't get outed to the cashier.
- One of the things that I remember happening was my ID changed before my credit cards changed.
- Oh yeah.
- Because I needed my ID to like prove to the credit card companies that I changed my
name with like the court order and all of that.
I was afraid that like I would use my credit card and they'd be like, ok show me your ID
to like verify this is you really using it.
And I'd be like uh they're not the same, but I promise I didn't steal this credit card!
I just changed my name.
- I've had that a lot because I got my court order in like January and now it's June and
I still don't necessarily have every thing changed.
Like, my company credit card still has my old name.
- Yeah, people, I don't think people realize how many like how much is going on there.
Like, they'll be like just change your name and... that's that simple little thing is
like five hundred different legal things that all cost money and all require like faxing
things and all this stuff.
- I have had the situation where like, people maybe don't know that hadn't changed my name
or they just like don't even know necessarily that I'm trans and so prior to having a changed
ID, they would put down Jackson on like reservations for like a party or something, but then like
said party requires a photo ID.
- Yeah.
- And then you get there and you're like, uhhh
- Yeahhh.
Well, one of the lucky things about my name is it's kind of gender neutral, but I've known
trans women who have like clearly female names.
Like Jennifer or whatever.
So when they go into public spaces, their friends have to be wary of like well do we
tell them your name is Jennifer or like this thing 'cause it's like you just don't want
to like incite things with strangers.
- Yes.
Yeah.
- And so I've kind of had that happen where my friends are like, what pronouns should
I use with you around strangers?
' Cause it's like we're not going to have a whole lecture about trans issues with like
the one person who like brushes by me on the way, but like it's also weird for your friends
to use the wrong pronouns for you?
It's yeah...
- Oh my gosh, I had an experience at VidCon.
A bartender was like checking my ID and it says like issued like this year, but also
like expires next year and he was like, oh do you have to get your license updated every
year because of your glasses?
And I was like, what?
These are like, not a high prescription.
And then he was like, how come your license has to be updated every year?
The real reason is like the original expiration date was 2019, but I got the name change.
I wasn't about to out myself to this random bartender
- whoa!
Oh wow.
- I think he was only like giving me the sixth degree because people see my ID and it almost
comes off as like a McLovin' situation where it's like, ok kid, you wanted a fake ID you
should've gone for 21 not 27.
Like, this is unbelievable.
- They just don't buy that you're as old...
- Yeah, so I always get asked questions.
Like, what's the zip code on this? - what?
- Yeah.
- Oh my god, that's wild.
I haven't had that happen at all.
- I get pop quizzes on my ID.
- Oh that sucks.
Yeah, and they have no idea that they're asking like really invasive things and you're like,
yeah I don't want to tell you I'm trans, but like... what did you end up saying to him?
- I think I said, oh I moved and so my address changed, but it's still... it's like dude,
I just want this Corona so I can pretend I'm Dom Torreto.
- Yeah.
- There's so much more that we could talk about that we probably will when we turn the
camera off, honestly.
- Yeah, probably.
- But I'd love to hear what you all think so like other trans, nonbinary people, like
put your experiences down in the comments.
We can all vent together.
- Yes, please.
I want to see what everyone else is going through because I know we're not alone in
this.
- Oh absolutely.
And we filmed a video on Riley's channel about... oh my god, it was like ten minutes ago and
I already forgot what we talked about.
Being trans youtubers, who don't just post about like your transition or just trans things.
There's more to your life than just being trans.
- Impossible!
- What?!
- Whoa!
- Well especially after this video, it kind of sounds like it is.
- Yeah, all we did was talk about trans stuff for like two hours
- And how it impacts every single aspect of our lives.
- Yeah and we're like, but it's we don't always talk about trans stuff, just this time.
We promise.
- Uhm, but you should also check out all the rest of Riley's channel and subscribe.
She makes awesome videos about like really every intersection of activism.
- There's a lot of things.
- All the things.
Anyways, Riley is awesome.
You should go check out her channel and watch that other video that we made.
Thanks for watching.
See ya next time!
- Bye!

Kawaii Eats: Moomin Cafe in Seoul, Korea (Instagram Cafe) - Duration: 11:01.Hi Guys! We're in Apgujeong Rodeo which is the fancy part of Gangnam
And we're going to go to Moomin Cafe!
Let me know in the comments below if you know who Moomin is.
I just became aware of this white hippo about 3 years ago
because my first big Round 1 UFO catcher win was actually the Moomin white hippo.
the time I had no idea of who this character was I'd never seen the.
cartoon before. I don't think it's that popular in the US. If you're from
the US and you know who moomin is, then I'd be really surprised but this is actually
a pretty popular character in Japan and I have a friend who's really into Moomin
and Finland. She actually got married in Finland and this is one of her
favorite characters. But coming from the US I had no idea who this was and I
actually found out that there was a Moomin Park in Japan that was really cute
and so we went to the park as a family and we just hung out there and I filmed
the video I'll have to look for that footage and hopefully edit that video
and put it up next week sometime. So Moomin was created by a Swedish fellow and it was
first published as a comic strip in Finland so that's the connection to
Finland and the Moomins are basically a family of white creatures that look like
hippos. I don't know if they're actually hippos but
they also have this green character who's called Snufkin and then a lady who
looks a little bit angry and she wears red and her name is Little My, so that's what I
know about Moomin. I watched one cartoon but I didn't find it that
interesting, but I still think that the characters are
really cute
So even though I'm not familiar with Moomin from my childhood I'm really
starting to develop a liking for this hippo, and I always like to go to
character cafes so when I heard about this I knew that I had to visit it. I
was surprised that it was so empty. There only two other parties
there besides us and it was nice because we had plenty of space and my daughter
was sleeping when we got to the cafe so there wasn't a lot of noise to wake her
up
I thought that the food was really good. The cake was not too sweet. And the latte ended up
being really... It was really interesting. I've never had a salty caramel
latte before so I forgot to mix it up before I took a sip, so my first sip was super
salty but after I mixed it up, it was really good.
We're at Moomin Cafe in Seoul, and we came here off the recommendation of one of
my subscribers, Sara Nichols, and I just wanted to say thanks for recommending this place, it's
really cute! She actually has her own YouTube channel
called It's so Fluffy. She has a lot of cute stuff on her channel, so when you're done watching this video,
head over to her channel and check out her videos.
Baby's so tired! Are you tired?
Today, it's really too hot to walk around. And we're just going to hang out here... take some photos with the hippos...I already ate my rainbow cake. And just chill.
I was sitting in the chair next to the hippo, and then I saw the people move from the sofa,
So I thought that I would come and lay down the baby so she could lay down comfortably instead of in the Ergo, but
She woke up! She got a really short nap
Hopefully she'll nap a little later today.
yeah
this little space in the basement was really unexpected and cute and I think
that my older daughter would've really liked running around here and playing with my younger
daughter so it's a shame that she didn't get to go. So maybe we'll try to go back when
she's off school but I ended up going on a lot out of outings with my younger daughter
because I like to go stuff... Go out. But my 4 year old
has preschool from 9-2, so it's during that time that I usually go on my outings,
plus, it's much easier to take one kid with you on the train, walking through
the streets, than it is to take 2 kids, so I end up doing a lot of outings with Valentina.
But when Sienna was younger, I used to take her all over Tokyo, so I guess it's even.
That's crazy, Valentina. What is this?
A bunny.
Crazy!
Let's go inside to see if there's more machines. Let's go.
-ok.
So that was Moomin Cafe and Apgujeong. I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
If you did be sure to give me a thumbs up and go check out it's so Fluffy's channel
when you're done. Thanks for watching, Bye!

To the Moon | Short Film (HD 1080p) - Duration: 11:38.[John F. Kennedy on TV] For the eyes of the world now look into space...
...to the moon, and to the planets beyond.
There is no strife, no prejudice, no national conflict in outer space as yet.
Its hazards are hostile to us all.
"But why," some say, "the moon?"
Why choose this as our goal?
Why climb the highest mountain?
Why, thirty-five years ago, fly the Atlantic...?
[laptop closes]
Cooper! Don't go far! Dinner soon.
I better go keep an eye on him.
[Brett's mother] He's just outside, he'll be fine.
It's...it's cold out. And, uh, some of the other kids may come around.
What's wrong with that?
You gotta let your brother find his own way, Brett.
He's not like you. But he's smart. And he's confident.
Who knows what would happen to him if I wasn't always fixing all of his problems?
He's not something to be fixed! He's your big brother.
I know that. I'm sorry. I just...
Just try not to worry so much about Cooper. I'm the one that's supposed to be doing the mothering.
[sigh] Okay, ma.
Hey there, sport, what you got there?
[Michael] I think he's going to space, Neil.
Is that right? Where you going? Mars? Venus? Uranus?
I think it's pronounced "ur-uh-nus"?
What, are we in middle school?
[Neil] You don't talk much, do you?
[crushing noise]
Oh. I'm sorry about that. What is that, a space shuttle? Here, let me see it.
-Get lost, Neil! -I'm trying to fix it!
Go away, loser!
I'm trying to help you, retard! I knew you were dumb, but I didn't know you were THAT dumb.
[thud]
You heard him. Get lost!
[scoffing] What a freak show.
[slow, piano-driven music]
Cooper! Cooper! Wait up!
Wait up, bud, where you going?
I'm going to my spot. I gotta get out of here.
Alr-Wait a minute. Hold on. Are you okay?
I know I'm not that smart. I'm not dumb. I'm just catching up.
What do you mean?
You know that thing where...all the racers, and the gun goes off?
-A starting line? -Yeah, that!
Mom...mom says we're all in the same race. My line's just a little father back. But...
I'm gonna catch up! I'm gonna do lots of things! I'm gonna go to the moon.
Alright, well before we go to the moon, we gotta have dinner, okay?
I wanna go to my spot.
Mom made spaghetti.
-Meatballs? -With meatballs.
Come on. Let's go.
[Cooper's mom] Do you know how much I love you?
To the moon.
To the moon and back.
Sleep up, you have a long day tomorrow.
There you go, look. Look how high it is!
It's nowhere close to the real moon.
Here.
That's as close as you're gonna get.
Cooper!
Hey. You've been out here for a while. We were getting worried about you.
What's all this?
I told you - I'm going to the moon.
Yeah, I know you've been watching all those videos on your computer about the moon.
Sure would be fun. But I'm not sure we have everything we need yet to get to the moon.
You know those...those guys...they had a lot of high-tech computers to send those guys-
-Let me see your phone. -My phone?
-Yeah, yeah. Pull it out. -Okay.
Did you know all the computers in your phone are more advanced...
...than the ones they used to send the original men to the moon with?
Well...yeah, that's true, but...
So...we're in even better shape to get there!
I'm almost done with my ship.
[duct tape rips]
Launch is set for tomorrow. I want you to be there when I blast off.
That sounds like a lot of fun, Cooper. I'm not sure it's gonna work, though.
You know, they had a lot of really smart guys working on all those rocket ships when they went to the moon.
You don't believe that I can?
I may be retarded, but I'm not stupid.
Hey! You're not retarded. Okay?
It's okay. I didn't go to the same school as everyone else.
I know I'm supposed to be smarter, but I can't help it.
Hey. There's nothing wrong with you, alright? You're...you're smart.
And you're confident. I look up to you.
-Really? -Yeah.
You're not retarded. Don't ever think that.
It's what Neil says...
Well...screw Neil, alright? You're not retarded. You're...
...my brother.
That's all you gotta worry about, okay? Don't listen to what other people say.
They'll see. I'm gonna be the next man on the moon.
I'm gonna prove I can do anything anyone else can.
If you wanna go to the moon, we'll get you there someday, okay? I promise.
Thanks, Brett.
[dark, foreboding music]
Where's little Stephen Hawking today?
Is that meant to be an insult? Stephen Hawking is a brilliant man.
Yeah, well, he's...he talks funny.
Yeah, well so do you. Get out of here man.
If I hear you came around here one more time telling my brother he's retarded, I'll...
[Neil laughing] You'll what?
Just get out of here man. Okay?
Your brother needs to learn that he's not like the rest of us.
Everything just gets handed to him. We have to work for everything that we have.
[Michael] Woah! Hey!
I'm glad he's not like you.
[thud]
Brett?
Go inside, bud.
Yeah. This is between us adults, not a place for a retarded little kid.
[thud]
[ominous music with a hopeful undertone]
Brett! Brett! I love you Brett!
I'll be back sometime. Hopefully.
What?
It's time. I gotta go now.
Where?!
[Brett] Where??
Where is he?
[John F Kennedy] The exploration of space will go ahead, whether we join in it or not,
and it is one of the greatest adventures of all time.
[music slowly gets faster]
[clock ticking]
Surely the opening vistas of space promise high costs and hardships...
...as well as high reward.
If history of our progress teaches us anything,
it is that man in his quest for knowledge and progress is determined and cannot be deterred.
We choose to go to the moon.
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things...
...not because they are easy, but because they are hard...
...and therefore, as we set sail, we ask God's blessing...
...on the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked.
Cooper!
[rocket launch noises]
[clock ticking]
[light piano music]
[Neil Armstrong] That's one small step for a man...
...one giant leap for mankind.

HIDING VACCINE RELATED DEATHS WITH SEMANTIC SLEIGHT OF HAND - Duration: 8:28.HIDING VACCINE-RELATED DEATHS WITH SEMANTIC SLEIGHT-OF-HAND
Please visit The World Mercury Project.
Vaccine scientists and the public health community cautiously and occasionally will admit that
vaccines can cause adverse reactions just like �any other medication or biological
product.� Although experts are less willing to openly disclose the fact that adverse reactions
can and do include death, one has only to look at reports to the U.S. Vaccine Adverse
Event Reporting System (VAERS) to see that mortality is a possible outcome.
From 1990 through 2010, for example, VAERS received 1,881 reports of infant deaths following
vaccination, representing a 4.8% of the adverse events reported for infants over the 20-year
period . Moreover, analysts acknowledge that VAERS, as a passive surveillance system, is
subject to substantial underreporting.
A federal government report from 2010 affirms that VAERS captures only about 1% of vaccine
adverse reports.
On the international frontier, the public health community�with the World Health Organization
(WHO) in the vanguard�previously used a six-category framework to investigate and
categorize serious adverse events following immunization (AEFI), including death.
Guided by this tool, public health teams examined temporal criteria and possible alternative
explanations to determine whether the relationship of an AEFI to vaccine administration was �very
likely/certain,� �probable,� �possible,� �unlikely,� �unrelated,� or �unclassifiable.�
In 2013, the WHO�s Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety discarded the prior tool,
ostensibly because users �sometimes [found it] difficult to differentiate between �probable,�
�possible,� and �unlikely� categories.� The WHO enlisted vaccine experts to develop
a �simpler� algorithm that would be more readily �applicable� to vaccines.
The resulting four-category system now invites public health teams to classify an AEFI as
either �consistent,� �inconsistent,� or �indeterminate� with a vaccine-related
causal association or as �unclassifiable.� Despite the patina of logic suggested by the
use of an algorithm, �the final outcome of the case investigation depends on the personal
judgment of the assessor� [emphasis added], especially (according to the tool�s proponents)
when the process �yields answers that are both consistent and inconsistent with a causal
association to immunization.�
In a 2017 letter in the Indian Journal of Medical Ethics, Drs. Jacob Puliyel (an India-based
pediatrician and member of India�s National Technical Advisory Group on Immunization)
and Anant Phadke (an executive member of the All India Drug Action Network) raise important
questions about the revised tool.
They describe an Orwellian Catch-22 situation wherein it is nearly impossible to categorize
post-vaccine deaths as vaccine-related.
This is because the revised algorithm does not allow users to classify an AEFI as �consistent
with causal association with vaccine� unless there is evidence showing that the vaccine
caused a statistically significant increase in deaths during Phase III clinical trials.
By definition, however, any vaccine not found to �retain safety� in Phase III trials
cannot proceed to Phase IV (licensure and post-marketing surveillance).
The result of the algorithm�s convoluted requirements is that any deaths that occur
post-licensure become �coincidental� or �unclassifiable.�
Drs. Puliyel and Phadke describe what happened in India when the country�s National AEFI
committee assessed 132 serious AEFI cases reported between 2012 and 2016, including
54 infant deaths that followed administration of a pentavalent all-in-one vaccine intended
to protect recipients against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus
influenzae type b infections.
For babies who survived hospitalization, the committee classified three-fifths (47/78)
of the AEFI as causally related to vaccines (with 47% of the incidents viewed as �product-related�
and 13% as �error-related�), but they rated nearly all (52/54) of the deaths as
either coincidental (54%) or unclassifiable (43%) despite mounting evidence that pentavalent
and hexavalent vaccines are increasing the risk of sudden unexpected death in infants.
�doctors who �na�vely� accept biased reports on vaccine safety �are losing the
trust of the public and in the process�endangering public health.
The absurdity and negligence inherent in the ultimately subjective WHO checklist have not
escaped the attention of others in India and beyond.
In a series of comments published in the journal Vaccine in response to the 2013 publication
of the revised tool, commenters issued the following scathing remarks:
�Even if a healthy child dies within minutes following vaccination and there is no alternate
explanation for the AEFI, even then the powers that be could easily declare that death as
coincidental and not due to the vaccine, thanks to the new AEFI.
This is dangerous �science�.� �Amongst the 20 items of their checklist,
no less than 15 (75%) are devoted to refute a vaccine-induced causality [emphasis in original]�.
After all and as the authors confess with an astonishing ingenuousness, the main point
is to �maintain public confidence in immunization programs.��
�People understand that there are no true coincidences�only events that have been
made to appear to be coincidental by either a genuine lack of understand[ing] of the overall
facts leading to the �coincidence� reported or by the deliberate suppression of the facts,
including when�AEFIs that result in death are made to �disappear.��
�It seems that huge business in [the] vaccine industry is affecting [the] science of vaccines
and we are developing various ways to promote the business at the cost of human lives.
�Going for a less sensitive tool for safety concerns is not only illogical but risky for
the children of the world.� Unfortunately, many vaccine proponents appear
to be more concerned with forestalling �misconceptions� and �erroneous conclusions about cause and
effect� than they are about preventing and identifying adverse events following vaccination.
The result, as Dr. Puliyel argues, is that doctors who �na�vely� accept biased
reports on vaccine safety �are losing the trust of the public and in the process�endangering
public health.�

Mass Casualty Simulation 2017 - Duration: 4:40.[ Music ]
>> It was extremely important.
It taught us to work better as a team, and not everybody in our class has been in situations
where they have to think on the fly.
It's invaluable training because you just can't replicate this.
>> Emergency preparedness in the world that we live in is vital.
As we become more and more interconnected, we have more chance
of large casualty events occurring, and we have to be prepared for it.
Because your new nurse may be in the ER or he or she may be up on the floor.
But when we need emergency care, they're going to pull us all together.
So we have to be able to provide it.
So I think it is extremely valuable and extremely important that we do that.
>> This event created an opportunity for them to learn all kinds of things
that you can't really teach in a classroom.
You have to think on your feet, you have to think critically.
And they're going to be the paramedics out into the community serving the community.
So they need to be well-prepared and have the opportunity
to be well-prepared to serve their community.
I'm so happy that we had a chance to do this today.
I'm very excited about it.
>> We had health information management working from very early in the morning to check
of all our actors in, all of our patients in, all of our students participants.
We had 20 standardized patients -- those are live actors that work as patients.
And our standardized patients started [inaudible] at 7:30 where they were done
up in makeup to look realistic for the scenario.
And then at 8:40, we gave them a briefing about what the whole incident was going to be about.
And then right before 9:00 o'clock, we trucked them all outside and got them in protest mode.
We had them picketing about a wrongfully dismissed faculty member.
At 9:00 o'clock that's when our incident actually began.
We had the police arrive to control the crowd at this protest.
We sent fire and EMS as standby.
We had a verbal confrontation between the president of the college and our protest leader.
Our protest leader went to breach the barricade, in which case the police recruits at that point,
you know, it was up to them whether they thought this was an arrest situation or not.
Right after that, we had our explosion.
We had an improvised explosive device, what's called distraction device
that they use, like, for SWAT teams.
And then at that point, we had our fire and EMS crews dispatched to the scene.
And they initiated triage and transport.
We had 29 patients at the scene, three were deemed dead
and the other 26 were transported to the hospital.
As part of our transport, we had an area where the EMS students would pull their patient
into a bay and work on their patient for about five minutes.
To assess their patient allows them to gather history, vital signs,
and it also allows hem to contact the hospital.
Once they entered the building, they proceeded to a triage area within the hospital.
And we had nursing students that would triage the patients.
They had finite resources within the hospital.
They had to decide do I want to send this to the most acute area or ER?
Do I want to send them to acute ER overflow or a non-acute area of the ER overflow?
So we had patients going mainly to two areas.
One area was here at the virtual hospital set of the ER.
And then the second area was the nursing skills lab up on third floor.
The simulation was designed to go about two hours.
About an hour and 35 minutes in we had our dean of instruction, Tarana Chappel,
and our campus president, Dr. Tony Ross, walk through the virtual hospital.
He was supposed to be agitated, she was supposed to try to be calming him.
Then he came out here to the virtual hospital lobby and was experiencing chest pain.
And then we had where he collapsed.
So it ended with a kind of spontaneous cardiac arrest scenario being played
out here in the virtual hospital walk.
>> It was so exciting and it was just so surreal to watch all of us students.
You know, we're all students, we all share common ground here,
we're working towards the greater goal.
And the simulation just went extremely, extremely well.
I feel extremely prepared.
I feel that we've had adequate classroom time, I feel that we have had adequate simulation time,
great clinicals, great supervisors to kind of help us through and get our skills.
So I feel extremely prepared and definitely ready to start my career.
>> I think you can sit in a classroom all you want, but to get out there
and actually put your skills to the test, that's the best experience.
If you're wanting to get that kind
of instruction experience, MCC's where you need to be.

Breaking: Feds Break Their Silence On Comey, He's In Deep Trouble… | Top Stories Today - Duration: 3:32.James Comey will go down in history as the petty FBI director who sold his soul to the
Deep State.
He's a man of little integrity, who abused his office to try to hurt our President.
Now, Comey's in big trouble.
Deputy Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein, has just informed the public that James Comey
broke FBI protocol by leaking memos to the press about his meetings with President Trump.
(via Washington Examiner).
Comey has destroyed his own career!
In an interview, Rosenstein was asked if it's proper for an FBI director to take notes of
his meeting with a US president and then let the press have those notes.
Rosenstein's response BURNED James Comey.
"As a general proposition, you have to understand the Department of Justice.
We take confidentiality seriously, so when we have memoranda about our ongoing matters,
we have an obligation to keep that confidential."
He couldn't have put it any more clearly.
To emphasize, he added: "I think it is quite clear.
It's what we were taught, all of us prosecutors and agents."
In other words, even rookie agents know they're supposed to treat sensitive information with
utmost confidentiality.
Leaking notes of conversations with the president to the press is something that no respectable
agent would ever contemplate doing.
It completely flies in the face of the FBI's reputation for professionalism.
But Comey thought he was above the law.
"Nut Job" Comey, as President Trump referred to him, had no qualms doing what he did, even
though he personally had nothing to gain with his completely unethical action.
It appears he did it for one reason: he's been bought by the big money interests who
want to bring Trump down.
If James Comey were really the true-blue FBI man he pretends to be, he wouldn't have
gone along like a stooge with the rampant law-breaking under the Obama administration.
Think about everything he let slide.
First, Comey did absolutely nothing to hold Hillary Clinton accountable for her storage
and transmission of classified materials on a private unsecured email server.
When Obama's Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, instructed Comey to call the Clinton investigation
a "matter," he did absolutely nothing to uncover the cover-up playing out under
his nose.
He closed his eyes and plugged his ears when Lynch met with Bill Clinton on a tarmac in
the middle of an investigation into his wife.
What about Obama's use of the IRS to target conservative groups?
What about Fast and Furious?
What about the hostage ransom secretly paid to Iran?
Did any of these unethical and illegal scandals ever constitute cause for concern for James
Comey?
No.
The moment he met Trump, he began keeping notes of their conversations.
Rosenstein should be watched with a wary eye as well.
He's a Democrat, and he's the one who appointed Mueller to lead the investigation
into "Russian collusion."
Mueller has filled his team with pro-Hillary shills.
Nevertheless, there's no doubt Comey disgraced his office with what he did to Trump.
We Americans will not forget it.
"Nut Job" Comey will never work in government again.
He deserved to have his illicit ties exposed and then be thrown in the big house!
What punishment does Comey deserve for his treasonous actions?
Please Share this news and tell us what you think.

PICK'EM PLAYOFFS PREDICTIONS - Duration: 3:52.Hey guys, salut mes amis och hallå gubbar, Maxim here.
As you all know from my previous video, I failed pretty hard in the group-stages.
I only got 9 points, but anyway enough about that, let's begin with the playoffs.
Now before we begin, remember that you have to predict all phases right away, meaning
you also need to pick who wins the semi-finals and the finals.
Once the playoffs begin your picks will be locked and you will miss your chance to get
the gold trophy.
I'm not sure about anything this major anymore so if I get something wrong I'm not surprised.
Let's begin with Gambit vs Fnatic.
Gambit with Zeus as an in-game leader, feels like the better team, they're solid, they're
strong, but Fnatic played well in the groupstages and it's nice to see JW perform like he used too.
Fnatic relies very much on confidence, and if they have it they will play like gods.
Gambit are more structured and will rely more on strats, but if Fnatic knows how to adapt
to Gambit who knows what will happen.
In the end, I'm gonna pick Fnatic, and I know that it's a risky pick but it's predictions,
anything can happen.
Next match, Astralis vs SK.
Two teams that you would expect in the finals, they're both top teams, they both have sick
players, and it's most likely going to be a close match.
Too bad they have to face each other in the quarter finals.
So who will I pick?
I've been thinking about it for a while now, but in the end, I'm going for SK.
Astralis is a consistent team, with a near perfect playstyle, but SK are very good at
controlling the game and coldzera is nuts right now.
All right let's move on to this very scary match here with BIG vs Immortals.
I really love the agressive style that Immortals have when they play, they're a very fun team
to watch, especially with the two awp setup.
BIG has managed to surprise everyone, but will it stop here?
As much as I want BIG to go far in this tournament, they've only played Inferno in the groupstages.
They will need to perform on more than inferno and I know that Immortals can do that very well.
You know what?
I'll pick BIG anyway...
Why?
Well, mostly because I'll look like an idiot if they win and I don't pick'em, besides,
my predictions have been so bad anyway so why not.
In the end, they're better than what I thought.
Last match of the quarter finals, North vs VP.
VP this tournament have been on point, and it feels so refreshing watching them play,
and they're also playing in the hometown of Snax.
Which means the polish crowd will be there, the energy towards VP and the fact they're
playing in their home country will give them lots of energy and confidence, so I'll pick
VP.
Now let's go for for the semi-finals.
Gambit or Fnatic, I don't think it matters.
If SK is able to beat Astralis then SK will most likely win this match as well.
It I would be cool tho if I was wrong here, even though I don't think I am.
And if BIG were to face VP in the semi-finals I think VP will win, but it would be sick
to see BIG advance to the finals.
Seriously that would be huge, or big.
And lastly, the winner of the major.
If VP and SK are going at each other in the finals, and I really mean IF cause that's
not even sure, I still think SK will win.
They're such a dominant team and their skill-level right now is insane.
Whatever happens, I believe this weekend will be lots of fun.
Let me know what you think will happen in this tournament, and which teams you think
will advance (inb4 BIG wins the major).
You can always follow me through other social medias like Instagram and twitter to keep
up to date with what I do, I'll see you guys soon, and go bananas!

Coming out and transitioning online with Jackson Bird | Riley J. Dennis - Duration: 13:38.Hey everybody!
Today, I'm here with:
Jackson Bird!
Yeah!
And we're gonna talk about trans stuff!
What I wanted to talk about is the struggle with -- like, being a trans YouTuber and not
really wanting to document your transition online -- or at least to not have that be
the only thing that you do.
From what we were talking about before, it sounds like you didn't get started as a trans YouTuber like
doing trans stuff.
So I don't know, can you just tell me a little bit about like how you got started on YouTube
and what you do on YouTube?
Yeah, I mean I did some small things with friends very early on in YouTube, and then
around like 2011, I started vlogging for the Harry Potter Alliance, and so I got like a
little bit of a community following from the Harry Potter fan community.
And off the back of that, I started doing my own videos.
Um, and three years ago, I started a comedy series called "Will It Waffle?"
I put random things in a waffle iron, I see what happens.
It's great -- you should watch it!
We should waffle something sometime!
I didn't bring my waffle iron this week.
Well if we can't waffle anything, what's the point?
Will trans waffle?
I almost made my coming out video, "Will Gender Identity Waffle?"
I was thinking of coming out as questioning, and that would've been like "waffling on my gender".
Oh my god.
But yeah, so I like -- through Will It Waffle, and the Harry Potter fan community, like I
had like a decent following of people, and it was also sort of interconnected with my
professional life as a spokesperson and activist.
And, so I was like really nervous to have to come out as trans when I already had like
this sort of community online who didn't know me as trans.
They thought of me as this straight cis ally.
And, um, yeah there like weren't -- at the time, I couldn't find that many YouTubers
who were trans who weren't out like before -- you know, like --
How long ago did you come out?
I came out in May of 2015, so two years ago.
Okay, wow, yeah.
Yeah, and it was like -- most trans YouTubers got well known from documenting their transitions
or at least talking about -- like already being out as trans.
Yeah, so did you feel a pressure to document your transition when you realized that you were trans?
I think I almost felt a pressure against it.
Okay.
Just because soooo many white trans guys out there document every -- "Today, I am 2 days
on T and this is my voice."
You know?
Like, um, and -- not to like, I mean that stuff is so crucial, and in fact, I think
-- actually I think when I started T, I realized even more the value of those and what I could
contribute because, um, especially like the first year when you're getting a lot of changes,
it's like every month marker, you wanna go and find as many videos as you can to find
the people who are going through the same things as you cause hormones are a little
different for every person.
Um, so I finally -- I was like, "This is a very valuable resource, so maybe I should
contribute to that."
But because I have so many followers who are like 10-year-old boys who think waffling stuff
is funny, I didn't really know how they would receive transition videos and gender-related
videos, so I did them on a second channel for a while.
Okay.
And then I just... forgot that I was transitioning, I guess.
[Laughter]
Does the second channel still exist?
It does!
Yeah, it's called Also The Bird, and I'll throw things on it sometimes.
Okay, how was your coming received like, in general, from your audience?
Really well.
I had like trained them to -- nah no not really, that sucks -- I had groomed them, but I did,
I had been making videos for several years that were like LGBTQIA-related content, um,
and was already having people come up to me at events, like, saying how they'd helped
them or they'd showed their parents and stuff like that.
And they just thought I was like this cool ally -- little did they know, I am a trans.
Plot twist.
So, definitely, like, the reception from my community was good, and if there had been
like a secret YouTube where I could just come out to my community, I would have like years prior.
It was just like, when you put things on the internet, like, everyone in your life could
possibly see them.
Cause I did like -- I tried to hide it from my extended family, and then I started getting
these emails from my cousins, and they were like, "Yeah, I read an article about it."
I was like, "Ahhh!"
But overall, it was great, and it like -- I mean, like Tyler Oakley and Hank Green like
shared it on the day, and like John Green, and so it was, it was -- it went really far,
and I got a lot of subscribers off of coming out, which felt weird, but it was all really positive.
Like, now I think if you look at it, it started to get like trolls and harassment.
Yeah, of course.
When I first came out, it was very very positive.
So what have you been doing recently with like transition-related stuff?
I've been a dumpster fire on YouTube and haven't been posting for a while.
Wowwww.
Literally, people at VidCon have been like, "Does Will It Waffle still exist?"
And I'm like, "Yeah, I've been meaning to post a video for like two months."
Honestly, I think I sort of threw out the window like maybe this won't resonate with
Will It Waffle fans and have just been doing what I wanna do.
Cause I've been making more like 201 Gender Theory level videos, so I think I'm a lot
more like you where I feel more comfortable talking about some of the different like issues
and like, uh, I don't know.
Like just talking about more broadly from the community experience, or like amplifying
other people's stories.
Like, I have a series called Queerstory, where I talk to all different kinds of like queer
and trans people, um, about their experiences and I think I feel more comfortable doing
that than like sharing my own transition.
Yeah, it's less personal.
Yeah, but also like, especially for trans masculine people, you kind of get to a point
where, like, there's not that much to document anymore.
Yeah.
It's like, I mean, yeah, I still have giant hips.
Maybe one day when that goes away, I'll make a video with before and after pictures.
But yeah, what about you?
Because you didn't have like a coming out on YouTube, really.
No, mine was weird cause I kind of -- I think I started YouTube around when I was like questioning,
and I just didn't really talk about it.
And then, just kinda started mentioning that I was trans when that was a thing that I realized,
and I hadn't even come out really to like -- all of the people in my life.
And eventually, I was just like, "Yeah, this is a thing that I'm doing online and also
I'm trans.
Hey, hi, how's it going?"
So I never had like, a big coming out moment with it, it was just always kind of a part
of what I was doing.
But then, my transition has been like, semi, like cause there are parts that you can't
hide -- like I changed my name.
And it was the name of my channel.
And so that was kind of a big deal, and I had to like talk about it and tell everyone
my name is changing.
I just realized that's when I first heard of you!
Oh really?
From my name change?
Yeah!
Yes!
I guess people were like sharing it probably like congratulating you or something, and
I was like, "Who is this cool person?"
And yeah, so like I did the name change thing, but I really hadn't talked about transition
stuff online at all, and I mean it's a lot of -- what you were saying -- there -- those
resources are out there, like, trans women who have transitioned, or went through the
transition, like there was 1 month hormone updates, and 2 month, and 6 month -- and I
watched all of them, and they're great resources.
And I kind of felt like I owed something back to that.
Like I need to contribute my part to that and like do my updates and stuff.
But also, that's like, it wasn't my goal with YouTube, like it was never like, this is what
I wanna do, and I don't really have an interest in doing that.
Like it feels more personal to me.
Like it feels like, I don't know, medical stuff, like stuff that I'm dealing with on
my own that I don't feel like sharing with the internet.
So I like talking about stuff broadly, and saying like "trans people," and "some trans
people," like stuff like that, you know?
I had a lot of different ways I wanted to document my first year on T, and some of them
were things that were like gonna be full projects like when the first year was done.
So I have a video I made where I recited a poem one word a day for a whole year, and
like filmed it --
That's so cool!
It was a lot of fun.
And like I didn't tell anyone about it while I was doing it, and so then it like came out
on the one-year anniversary, um, and so I think I sort of -- like, that was my outlet.
And I did a lot of like private things too.
Like I would do like photoshoots with myself, and I haven't like shared those because they're
purely just for me.
And also like, some of them are shirtless and like whatever -- like you know, I'm not
gonna share that on the internet.
Um, and, on my second channel, I think it's like the first five months on T, I did make
videos, and they're like really long, and I have like jumpcut links and everything,
of like all the different things I talk about, emotionally and physically.
Um, and I think it was like, it was good for me to like check in and have all of that.
And they were really well received by both trans and cis people, as resources and points of learning.
But, um, I don't know, I did feel like I was kinda maybe sharing things I don't usually
talk about on the internet.
And don't really feel like I need to.
Are there parts of your transition that you think would be like useful resources for people,
but you just don't want to share them?
I definitely don't talk about like any sort of bottom stuff, and I've never talked about
like my romantic relationships or anything like that online.
Yeah yeah, nah.
Yeah, so that's like definitely the, "Nope, not going there."
How come?
It's just like too personal?
Yeah, I think so.
And I think it just becomes like a pressure kind of thing.
Like when you're dating people, and people maybe like that person, and then you break
up, then there's all of that drama, and it just like creates a lot of, um, pressure on
you, and so to me it's just easier to never talk about it.
Makes sense.
And there's a lot of -- I don't know.
I feel like a lot of people feel entitled to like private information about you.
Like, "If you're going to share this much, you owe us all of this.
And you have to like tell us all of these things."
But, I don't know, I think sometimes people just forget that like, YouTubers don't have
to share their entire lives.
Yeah, I was having a conversation with someone today, um, someone who works at GLAAD and
does like trainings for a lot of people, and he was saying that one thing that they keep
reminding activists is it's okay to have those boundaries, and like, you know, especially
as trans people, we feel like we always have to be educators to like anyone we encounter
in our lives, um, and it's okay to say no sometimes -- to just be like, "Um, I don't
feel like talking about that," cause like often if someone asks me something personal,
like trans-related, I will like -- in real life -- I will never answer for myself.
I'll just be like, "Well, when a transmasculine person undergoes physical transition, this
is something that may or may not happen to them, and then I direct them to like a website.
That's exactly what I do.
When people are like, "When are you starting hormones?" or like, "When are you transitioning?"
or whatever, I'm like, "Well, like some trans people actually don't start hormones, and
like some are on hormones like this," and like just go off on like a whole thing of all the possibilities.
And people are like, "So what are you doing?"
And I'm like, "That's just none of your business."
I'll educate you all day long on all of these things, but like, what I'm doing is not your business.
But, but what my friend was saying today was like giving yourself to not even have to say that.
You know, like sometimes you can just say, "No."
Like, there are plenty of resources on the internet.
You can look it up there.
We don't have to -- you know, it's like, it's that one thing where it's like, um, it's really
good to accept people who are just being compassionate and they do care about you and maybe
they don't have all of the language and the concepts down, but then at the same time it's like,
why do I have to settle for that?
You know, like sometimes -- why do we have to be happy about only getting half of what
everyone else gets?
Yeah, and it's -- I don't know -- it's exhausting.
Yes.
Like, having to educate every single person you meet about what's going when -- like Google exists.
Like, you can look this stuff up on the internet.
Like, there's not a -- like, I wouldn't say that trans resources are like everywhere,
but like -- they do exist on the internet, there's a good number of them.
We are making one right now.
Yeah!
Like, they exist.
Here's your resource.
Cause, I don't know, people ask me questions and I'm like, "You can literally Google that
question, and like the National Center for Transgender Equality will like have a resource
for you, or like a trans person will have made a video about it."
And it's weird to me sometimes that people don't Google it.
Like, I get that not everyone is the kind of person who seeks out knowledge, but like,
how many times have you been hanging out with people and they mention something and you're
like, "I should probably know what that is," whether it's like a musician or a sports team,
and you just like stealthily Google on your phone. Why don't people do that for trans stuff?
I don't know.
Yeah, you could, like -- you could just be like googling "What is genderqueer?"
instead of being like,"Why the fuck do you call yourself genderqueer?
What is that?"
Yeah!
What do you see going forward in the future?
Do you want to talk more about trans stuff, or do you wanna like talk about other stuff?
I -- so I've not made videos as consistently as I would like for the past few -- so like
that's like one problem, is like I try to put up one Will It Waffle video a month, and
then like try to do other videos and make them not all about trans things.
Um, because there's so much trans stuff I want to talk about, and again, it's more like
general theory stuff, it's not about my transition -- I am working on a name change video.
I documented the whole process of all the different parts of name change -- like legal
name change that I went through, and so I'm gonna put that together.
That's good.
So I guess like -- more social and legal transition stuff maybe I would share.
But yeah, like for me, I really like to find a balance between all the different types
of content I make, and sometimes, it can end up being like a LGBT-heavy because all of
my life and everyone I know is queer and trans.
Yeah, nah, I feel like I do a very similar thing -- I'm like, "I have so much stuff to
talk about that's not trans related!"
And then someone asks me a question, and I'm like, "Ah, I need to talk about this."
But I love that you're doing that.
I love that there's like a mix of like trans stuff and waffling stuff, like, that's fun,
and I enjoy it, and I like -- I don't know -- I wanna see more queer people who are just
existing and like not necessarily existing just for their like -- just to be gay, or
just to be trans, or whatever.
But just doing shit and being queer or trans at the same time.
Like, I think that's so cool.
Yeah, I'm really glad that's kinda what Miles does, you know?
Like, he's always made stuff about being queer, but like not every single video -- mostly
cause he makes videos like every single day -- but he just does like the wackiest random
shit, and sometimes it's related to being queer or trans, but it's mostly like, "Here's
a queer trans person just existing and being awesome."
Yeah, I really love Thomas Sanders for that because he always at the end of his videos
says like, "guys, gals, and non-binary pals" and like has a friend, Joan, who's non-binary
and uses they pronouns and stuff -- and like, they don't talk about it, like it's not like
a thing, but like in their comedy sketches and stuff, they're using they pronouns and
like saying non-binary at the end of every video -- and it's just like, the normalization
of it, you know?
That, it's not about those topics, but it's just people watch that and be like, "Oh, that's
a normal, like chill thing."
And I love that.
I think that's so great.
So, on Jackson's channel, we will film a video about some of the problems that trans people
face in like their day-to-day stuff, and you should go check that out, and also watch the
Will It Waffle series cause it's really funny.
And some of the other videos that you've done on like gender identity and stuff are really great.
Thank you so much for being on my channel.
Thank you so much for watching this video, and I'll see you next time!
Bye!

My Neighbor, Charles | 이웃집 찰스 - Ep.121 [ENG/2017.07.20] - Duration: 47:51.(The hot place for designs)
(Korea's landmark DDP)
(Dongdaemun Design Plaza, Jung-gu, Seoul)
(121st class at the foreigner school)
This is My Neighbor, Charles
where we meet foreigners living in Korea.
- Hello. / - Hello.
People are talking about summer vacation as
the weather is getting hotter and hotter.
- Summer. / - Summer.
Sayuri, are you going on a vacation after this?
Her dress is so pretty.
Japanese people try to go to a hot place
during summer.
My heart is already in Hawaii.
In France, everyone goes on a vacation in summer.
All public institutions close so
it's very uncomfortable.
Isn't that frustrating? Things will be chaotic here.
We like to be relaxed and chill
so it's good because there are no people.
Today, we have a special guest
from Daefrica...
- Paprika? / - Africa.
You don't know Daefrica?
It's a made-up word of Korea's hottest city,
Daegu and Africa.
That's why you call it, Daefrica.
Oh, that Daefrica.
Please, welcome our guest from Daefrica!
Come on in!
She's so cute!
It's raining.
- Were you wearing that plastic bag? / - Is it raining?
Yes.
Hello, my name is Masha.
I'm from Uzbekistan.
I'm currently living in Daegu
and I've been in Korea for 7 years now.
Your Korean is good.
You look like a very pretty Korean lady.
Hello.
I'm a 1st grade student, Lee Juyeong.
Yes.
So cute.
Masha's Korean is very good.
Did you study by yourself?
As soon as I came to Korea, I went to
the multicultural center with my mother-in-law.
Then did you come to Korea to marry?
No, I got married in Uzbekistan,
got pregnant after a year,
then came to Korea.
My husband used to work in Uzbekistan.
Leave.
You have to go because you made trouble.
Why do you have a mic?
We sent away the kids
for a second.
It would've been nice if her husband came
and helped with the kids.
Why are you here alone?
My husband passed away 4 years ago
during work.
I'm sorry.
My daughter was only
2 months old. He died before she was 100 days old.
You were so pretty
and so good at Korean that
I thought you were living an easy life in Korea.
I thought you were raising the kids well but
I didn't know about that.
You must've gone through so much.
I think you have some things to tell us.
We'll have a look at your life in Korea.
(My Neighbor, Charles)
(Uzbek mom on her own)
(Buk-gu, Daegu)
A market in Daegu is
being heated up!
Hello.
I'm Masha from Uzbekistan.
(Paying full attention as she's good at Korean)
How are you related to them then?
They are my mom and dad.
They came from abroad.
- Mom and dad. / - Yes.
Come on stage, please.
Her parents are also in Korea.
In Uzbekistan...
Can you ask how much he loves his daughter?
(Father, mother)
I love her very much.
100%.
100%.
The entire family is here because of Masha.
(Masha sings a trot song)
(She's good)
Everyone, from kids to elders,
loves her.
(Her singing is very good)
(My daughter is so good)
Masha has quite a talent.
Encore!
- Everyone... / - Thank you.
(My mom is the best)
They won a prize and had fun.
The performance was worth it.
You were really good.
My daughter is the best.
Masha is so happy these days because
her parents are by her side.
(What it's like to be a single mom)
Should we take a look at the life of a single mom?
Are you up?
Yes, I'm up.
Masha's parents came to Korea 3 months ago
to help her daughter.
An entire season has changed since they came.
Shall we get started?
I was wondering what they were up to.
(Uzbek music video)
They always exercise like this in the morning.
Masha, exercise with them.
Exercise.
You might become a fitness teacher at this rate.
Try taekwondo.
Is this a dance or an exercise?
It doesn't matter as long as
it's good for his health.
She asks her dad to take care of her lazy son.
(Getting dragged out)
Juyeong wants to exercise too.
Her dad has a way to wake up his grandson.
(Jab)
Grandpa...
The way her dad treats her son
is very cute.
(Wake up, wake up)
I'm not going to wear that.
I don't want that.
- The white one. / - The white one?
Mom.
Where's Mina's white dress?
Her dress got dirty yesterday.
I'm going to wash it today.
Where's the comb?
That's because you don't put it in the right place.
Because my mom keeps the house,
I don't know where things are.
My princess.
What would you have done if your mom wasn't here?
Not just keeping the house,
but also looking after the kids.
Her parents take care of it all.
Juyeong, let's put on your socks.
You need to sit on the bed.
Otherwise, I can't put them on for you.
Get up.
I don't want to.
What a pain.
(Struggling)
Masha's mom is the real MVP.
(At peace)
Usually, she'd be busy taking care of the children
and getting ready for work.
But she seems very relaxed.
- Bye-bye. / - Bye.
- Good-bye. / - Good-bye.
She was always tight on time
but she has enough time to go to her workplace.
It's a 20-minute drive to her work.
Masha works at a restaurant.
Hello, I'm here.
Hello, Masha.
This stings my eyes.
There are so many.
When will she finish peeling these?
It's not easy to take care of
every single ingredient.
(It's stinging)
They are crying because of the green onions.
It's usually not this strong.
Is Masha okay?
Masha's good.
She's good because she's married
and has kids.
Do you know that song? "Chili."
It says life is hotter than a chili.
♪ Life is ♪
♪ Life is ♪
♪ Hotter than a chili ♪
Masha fell in love with a Korean man
who came to work in Uzbekistan.
Their happy marred life only lasted for 5 years.
Her husband died due to an unexpected accident
and she became a widow.
My daughter was only 2 months old.
He died after seeing her once or maybe twice.
I didn't know what to do at all because
he passed away so suddenly.
The one who saved Masha from despair
was her mother-in-law.
However, her mother-in-law also passed away
last year due to heart attack.
My mother-in-law was just like my real mom.
She was my real mom.
After my husband died,
she always told me that I should cheer up,
never give up, and be stronger.
She said, "It's not easy to raise kids.
Don't look back and just keep moving forward."
(Masha's house, Buk-gu, Daegu)
I'm going to go down the stairs.
Take the elevator.
On his way to school with his grandpa,
Juyeong walks down the stairs from 11th floor.
Is he late?
I can go by myself.
This kid.
Juyeong walks away from his grandpa.
It's hard to for grandpa to keep up because
his leg is uncomfortable.
(His leg is uncomfortable)
Why is he keep following me?
I'm going to go really fast!
Masha's mom is busy taking Mina to daycare.
I'm so tired, Mina.
(I don't want to go to the daycare center)
It's not easy raising kids.
- Mina. /- Hello.
- Hello. / - Say, hello.
Mina, say hi, please.
Hello, welcome.
Good-bye.
I was scared that she'd throw a tantrum but
that was a relief.
Good job, ma'am!
(Doing the housework after sending the kids)
Masha's parents go back and forth between
Korea and Uzbekistan to help Masha
take care of the kids.
This is Masha's little sister.
This is Masha's older brother and this is his wife.
This is Masha's mother-in-law.
We went to Samarkand in Uzbekistan together.
She was a great person.
We really liked her.
This is my son-in-law.
He was a good person, but he passed away.
He lived with my daughter for 5 years.
He was such a good person.
He'd follow me around calling me "Papa."
I really liked him.
Masha's dad was very against a foreign husband.
But now he misses him more than anyone else.
- Hello, mom. / - I'm back.
Hello.
Mina, did you miss me?
Yes.
(Preparing ingredients)
The kitchen becomes busy as Masha returns home.
Should I bring a bowl?
You must be tired. Go rest, we're going to do it.
Don't worry. We'll take care of it.
All they are worried about is their daughter.
I'm sure all parents are the same.
Dinner is Masha's favorite
Uzbek traditional food.
It looks delicious.
Masha plays with the children
while her parents prepare dinner.
But the way she plays is very physical.
Mom, me too!
Stop.
If her husband was here he would've done the same.
Now, it's all just Masha.
(Dinner table of Uzbek food)
Wow, how plentiful.
Try the samsa.
She can't usually have home food
so this is a feast.
Masha, how does the home food taste?
The skewers are really good.
- Eat lots. / - It's so good.
I like it when my parents are here because
I can always eat Uzbek food.
- It's good and... / - I really don't like it.
I really like my parents' food.
I don't want it.
It's so bad.
I'm going to eat the food you cooked.
Okay.
- Is there rice? / - Yes, there is.
Kimchi.
Anchovy.
She can't take her eyes off of them.
Often times, they have to prepare twice because
the kids don't like Uzbek food.
I'll put a little bit of kimchi.
Beans. Good.
You're going to eat the rice too?
Do you want more?
Yes.
What if you gain more weight?
Then I'll gain more weight.
Aren't you upset that the kids won't eat
Uzbek food?
No, not at all.
They'll eat when they want to.
Masha is worried just in case
her parents may get upset.
(Our town's famous singer)
Is something happening today?
A singer must shine.
A singer?
Mom, how do I look?
Very pretty.
Dad, pray for me.
Do a good job.
Hope everything goes well and we wish you the best.
She leaves after her parents' prayers.
- Hello. / - Hello.
Hello.
She's even picked up.
It must be something important.
Masha, here's your background music.
You have it?
"Cheer Up" and "Love Battery."
I have nothing to prepare because
my manager takes care of everything.
He is someone who made Masha into a singer
after realizing her talent.
You can't park here.
- He's checking. / - Hello.
She is the singer for today's show.
You can get in if you say you're a singer.
You're very smart.
Masha was invited to an local event.
(Shiny outfit)
Stage clothes need to be shiny.
I should wear something shiny
next time.
Then I can shine as a singer.
Masha's been looking for events and festivals
to perform these days.
(The show continues)
(It's so fun! Shake it)
She came from a place far away from Korea.
Pretty singer, Masha from Uzbekistan.
She'll be singing Yu Jina's "Chili."
Please give her a big round of applause!
Good luck, Masha!
(Dancing)
(Wow, she's good)
After she won the singing contest at
the multicultural center,
she went on variety of performances.
Now, she's an aspiring singer
who'd go to every stage that calls for her.
Masha can dance too.
It was my dream to be a singer since I was a kid.
After I gave birth, whenever they asked for
someone who could sing,
I would always volunteer.
So every time there is a singing opportunity,
they contact me.
They'd ask me to sing
for them.
She became even busier as she
became an amateur singer.
- Hello. / - Hello.
You're so pretty today.
You're always pretty.
No, I'm not.
She is even learning to sing professionally.
Let me listen to what you've practiced.
3, 2, 1.
(She starts singing)
You have to really feel the rhythm.
♪ The uphill is endless ♪
That's definitely different.
Start with clapping.
(Sounding tired)
You're not trying that hard.
Feel the rhythm.
Don't just sing loudly.
Decrescendo.
You feel me?
- Yes. / - Alright, start.
(It's different)
That was very good.
(Very good)
You're a very quick learner.
Thank you.
(Infant care in the twilight)
It would've been impossible if she was alone.
Her parents played a huge role.
(Her parents came to pick Mina up)
Hey, Mina.
- Mom. / - You want mom to be here?
She'll be here soon.
Mom's the first person she looks for.
Mom.
Your mom will be here soon.
Mom.
Mom.
(Mina keeps crying)
Stop crying.
I'll buy you a balloon.
I'll be right back.
Mina's grandma takes the emergency approach
to settle her crying.
I hope snacks work on her.
(What will she want)
Mom.
(Just grandpa and granddaughter)
Mom.
Mina, don't cry.
Mina, don't cry.
A situation like this is difficult to handle.
I'm back, Mina.
Take this and don't cry.
Snacks are the best for kids.
Promise that you won't cry anymore.
(He's going somewhere in a hurry)
It's 5 p.m., right?
(Who did he come to meet)
He came to Juyeong's taekwondo studio
right after taking care of Mina.
He came to pick up Juyeong after the class.
He must not know what his grandpa's going through.
He still acts brusquely.
I'm going to go by myself.
No, go with your grandpa.
Juyeong, slow down.
Hold my hand. Stop.
He avoids walking with his grandpa.
Juyeong used to follow around his grandpa,
but he changed as he attended elementary school.
I think he's embarrassed.
I think his friends make fun of him after
seeing us walk him.
So I think he's trying to
escape from us.
He used to follow me around everywhere.
It's probably because he's so young.
He'll be alright once he grows up.
Say you're sorry.
You need to walk with him.
Is it because he's a foreigner?
- Yes. / - Why?
I'm from Uzbekistan.
Nothing can be done.
You're Korean. Just tell your friends
that your mom's from Uzbekistan
and you dad's from Korea.
(Silent)
Even though they tell him to stop,
he keeps running away from them.
Then my parents get very upset.
But when I ask them if they're upset,
they just say he's always cute
because he's their grandson.
But it's upsetting because he compares.
I hope he accepts it.
I hope he accepts us as Koreans.
(Masha is wearing a traditional Uzbek dress)
Masha's wearing a traditional Uzbek dress today.
You must have a festival.
She even prepares home-cooked bread.
Where are they going to prepare so much?
Masha, I think Juyeong will
run away from you today.
I won't let him.
Good luck.
(Dongpyung Elementary School, Daegu)
Masha is teaching a class about Uzbekistan
at Juyeong's school.
She even asked her friend to assist her.
Juyeong is completely clueless.
Hello.
- Can we come in? / - Yes, of course.
That's a traditional dress.
That's such a pretty dress.
It's Juyeong's mom.
Juyeong's mom.
Juyeong's friends are rather welcoming so far.
They prepared so much.
Can they keep the kids entertained?
- Hello. / - Hello.
Where do you think I came from?
(Successful in grabbing their attention)
- Uzbekistan. / - Uzbekistan.
Very good.
This is a traditional dress.
What do you call the Korean traditional clothes?
- Hanbok. / - Hanbok.
That's our traditional clothes.
Uzbekistan's traditional clothes is called atlas.
Shall we say it?
- Atlas. / - Atlas.
Good job!
She's so popular!
It's a good opportunity for kids to understand
a different culture.
It's hard to get up.
(Juyeong, the prince of Uzbekistan)
It seems like Juyeong's the happiest.
- It was so much fun. / - It was?
It wasn't fun.
Maybe just a little.
1, 2...
A very successful surprise for Juyeong.
Masha, good job today.
She even asks the teacher for an advice.
I heard his friends make fun of him
because I'm a foreigner.
He tells them not to come.
If I have to go to work and
my parents walk him to school and
ask to hold his hand,
he even pushes them away.
Juyeong's very playful and he
gets along with his friends well.
So I never worried about him.
But I didn't know he had that kind of problem.
That really upsets me.
You're trying your best.
I'd really appreciate if he accepts them
but because he doesn't, it really upsets me.
My parents also get sad.
Call me or message me anytime you need me.
Thank you for listening.
Don't worry. Everything will be alright.
(Uncle's the best)
Uncle's here.
(Kids are very excited)
They run out to greet their uncle.
They never get this excited for anyone else.
(Juyeong's uncle)
Where's aunt?
She went to work.
- She's working? / - Yes.
Behave yourself.
The kids love their uncle.
They are incredibly playful.
This is for Juyeong.
Me, too!
Your brother first. Two hands.
Mina, two hands and say thank you.
- Thank you. / - Good.
How are you feeling?
He's asking how you are doing.
I'm much better now thanks to you.
"I'm much better now thanks to you."
Take this. Give him a sword.
(Uncle fills their dad's empty space)
Tell them to listen to their mom.
- Juyeong, listen to your mom, okay? / - Okay.
Are you listening?
Just a little.
You listen to her but your mom's overreacting, right?
No, I listen to her only a little.
You should listen to her more.
You have to be a good child
to become a good adult.
- Was my cousin good, too? / - Of course.
He listened very well.
He reminds me of your mother-in-law. How similar.
She says that you remind her
of your mother because
you look just like her.
I wonder if there are in-laws that
love each other like they do.
My mother-in-law always played with the kids
and took them out to eat.
It's taking me back.
Uncle, this came
and I couldn't really understand.
So you called because of this?
I really can't understand real estate stuff.
I'll report the capital gains tax.
There's also one for Mina, right?
Yes, for all three of us.
I didn't know what to do.
I'll take care of it.
Thank you.
He's our guardian.
(Good-bye, parents)
Wow, what's all this?
Soju.
Korean alcohol.
Her parents are going back to Uzbekistan.
Her dad can't stop his vegetable business for too long.
Above all, they miss their family a lot.
Take good care of the kids and yourself.
Don't scold them too much and educate them well.
Uzbekistan is your home.
Don't forget that.
We are old now so
it's tiring for us to stay in Korea for too long.
We don't know how much longer we're going to live.
So I'm hoping you'd come back home.
Or get remarried.
You should get remarried.
Not right now.
They are so worried about their daughter
who has to take care of two kids on her own.
(Daegu International Airport)
(At the airport)
It's time to say bye.
They don't know when
they'll see each other again.
Take good care, mom.
(Sobbing)
Take good care of the kids and yourself.
Stay healthy.
Don't you want to see your grandma?
Juyeong even kisses his grandpa on the last day.
He'll probably become a mature grandson
the next time they meet.
Masha could keep it together
thanks to her parents who stayed by her side.
A good-bye is always hard for Masha.
I get so sad when my parents leave.
I try so hard not to cry.
If I cry in front of them, they'll worry about me
and think that I'm having a really hard time.
So it's best not to show them
because they'll worry so much.
(Tongcheonsa, Dong-gu, Daegu)
Masha comes here every time she feels sad.
It's where her husband is.
- Hello. / - Hello.
Hello.
Masha met him when she was 20.
He had a very gentle impression.
Mina, start.
The infant and a 4-year-old have
become two playful children.
Daddy.
Your letter is still here.
"Daddy letter. I love you, dad.
How have you been?
I miss you, dad.
Happy Parents' Day."
That's what he wrote.
Mina and Juyeong prepared this
on Parents' Day.
This was from the Parents' Day,
so it's gone dry now.
We should take this home now.
Say, "I'm taking care of mom, don't worry."
I'm taking care of mom, don't worry.
Mina, you say it too.
Hello, dad.
Say, "I'm doing well."
- I'm doing well. / - Tell him you're smart.
I'm smart.
Juyeong.
It's been 5 years since her husband passed away.
The two kids brought her back from
months of despair.
Masha is determined to be a strong mother
in order to protect
the children's happiness.
(Masha promises to be stronger to her husband)
If we're doing well, he's probably doing well too.
I hope her husband also gets her message.
(Saturday morning)
A bright Saturday morning.
The three leaves for a place since early morning.
Where are they off to?
- You have to behave, okay? / - Okay.
- Can you promise? / - Yes!
The place that Masha went with the kids is...
(I'm a college student)
She goes to college even though she's so busy.
- You can do it, mom! / - I can do it!
What do you mean?
I have a test today.
So you have to behave like you promised.
- Okay? / - Okay.
Hello.
She's a freshman majoring in Korean.
Sit in the front.
I have to sit in the back because I didn't study.
I'm worried about her.
Because she wants to be better at Korean
and is interested in social welfare,
she started studying.
I'll be taking a test so you guys have to be quiet.
The class is composed of multicultural immigrants.
At the school, they allow them to bring their kids
to school because they know their circumstances.
But Masha, what are you doing?
Put your books and phones in your bag.
Your phone, too.
I'm worried because I've never
seen her study.
She's trying to find an opportunity.
The proctor says something.
If you don't know the answer,
you can just write your name.
Okay.
I feel embarrassed just watching this.
(2nd round of war of nerves)
She's being extra paid attention to.
You're going to get caught.
(Something's weird)
I'm so nervous.
Oh, my goodness.
(Felt a prick)
You shouldn't have done that.
(I'm screwed)
I was caught on tape.
If my professor sees it, I'm done for.
I'm actually a good student but
there's been a lot of performances
so I had to practice and sing all the time.
I will be better next time.
(The single mom's struggle)
Take this.
She's back to her normal life.
She's become a single mom who
has to work at all times.
No, she's a super mom.
She's been working even harder
to be a proud mother.
It's so good.
How did you raise your kids by yourself?
There's nothing I didn't do.
Did your youngest son listen to you?
Does it look like I'd listen to her?
He got in a motorcycle accident.
Oh, my goodness.
My son never listens to me.
It's so hard.
It looks like I'm seeing the old me.
I feel bad for you.
Come to me whenever you're having a hard time.
Yes.
Watch out for those cars.
I'll be leaving.
Good-bye.
She's energized because people are supportive.
(Blowing)
Are you okay? It looks painful.
It's hard, to be honest.
Working, studying,
and raising children.
The reason Masha can't give up,
despite things being so hard,
is that she wants to show her kids
how persistent she is and how hard she's trying.
- Did you have fun? / - Yes.
Let's go.
I have to go somewhere so let's hurry.
Okay?
She's in a hurry because she has an important show.
But what is she going to do with the kids?
Good-bye.
This is her neighbor that helps Masha out
in emergencies.
Be nice and behave, okay?
- I'll be right back. Thank you. / - Good luck!
Thank you.
(Suseong Resort, Suseong, Daegu)
(Masha's on stage again)
Masha is trying her best to support
her family even in the worst situation.
I think Masha is already
a great mother to her children.
(That night)
She came running back right after the performance.
She must be tired but she doesn't show it.
(It'd be nice to sleep early)
Kids, your mom needs to rest.
Can you guys go to sleep already?
(Music starts)
This song's so hype.
(Having fun)
What's going on?
She gave up trying to make them sleep.
She plays with them as a thank you
for behaving today.
She's amazing.
(Midnight dance party)
I have to work hard and send kids to school
and achieve my dream.
But because I've been so busy
time is passing by too quickly.
The kids are growing up so fast.
Even though I'm tired,
I'm happy if my children are happy and healthy.
(EXCO, Buk-gu, Daegu)
Masha became stronger even though
she's been hurt and faced with
many difficult times.
(Masha's fan club)
(The family sings together)
Masha still sings today
for her children who are
her life and her world.
I wish you the best
in the journey to come.
(We wish for your family's happiness)
(My Neighbor, Charles)
There are so many talented people in Daegu,
so if you live in Daegu, you develop a talent.
Is there a trot song in Uzbekistan too?
Trot?
Trot is pretty similar to Uzbek songs.
But it doesn't really seem like you should be singing.
You have to take care of kids, go to school...
- Why do you want to be a singer? - / Because...
It's the only thing that frees me
from the pain of sending
my husband and my mother-in-law away.
When I sing, I become so happy.
I see.
It's hard to be a single mom in Korea because
you have to take care of the kids and work.
But you're from a different country
raising the children at the most playful age.
That's right.
(I want to become Wonder Woman)
You want to become Wonder Woman?
I thought the concern would be more like,
"I'm too tired,"
"I need my own time and space," or
"Someone help me take care of my children."
If you want to be Wonder Woman...
I already became a strong woman.
Even though, the past 4 years were difficult
I've endured it and become stronger.
Now, I feel like I can do anything.
I think it's very admirable that
there are things that you want to
accomplish and learn.
I was always sad. I always cried.
But the kids saw me and would say,
"Don't cry, mom.
If you cry, we'll cry too."
Then they'd cry with me.
So I thought I shouldn't be like that anymore.
I thought that I needed to show my kids
that I'm happy.
When you want to cry, you can cry.
The best way to avoid crying
is to live a super busy life.
That's why I'm living a busy life.
Because when I'm home and look at my kids,
I keep on thinking about
how they don't have a dad,
how I don't have a mother-in-law.
I felt lonely, too.
So I thought I could forget
if I'm busy.
What's the hardest for you?
When I'm sick.
When I'm sick and alone
while my parents are away,
I get so worried about what will happen
because no one can take care of my kids.
I don't have anyone to ask for help
so I feel very sad and helpless when I'm sick.
It seems like they don't want to be seen
with their grandparents.
I'm so upset they are avoiding their grandparents
because they are not Koreans.
But that can be a little difficult
until the kids grow up a little
if you think about it from their perspectives.
They can be teased
with things like that when they are kids.
People around Juyeong need to
help him understand that
difference is not something to be ashamed of but
to be proud of.
That's right.
You taught at Juyeong's school once, right?
Didn't he change a little?
He did a little.
His friends call me a teacher.
When they see me, they'd say,
"Hello, teacher! It was fun making the hat!"
Because kids like me,
Juyeong feels more proud of me.
He'd say that I'm cool.
Does Juyeong not mention his dad
at all?
He mentions often.
Before he goes to bed, he always says,
"I miss dad.
Can we take the plane and go to heaven?
I want to go there too."
Do you ever think about giving up everything
and returning to your parents?
I did...
- Then why not? / - When I was exhausted.
But my kids always get allergic reaction when we go,
like blisters.
Is the air bad in Uzbekistan?
The air is good but
when I took them to the hospital, the doctor said
it'd be better off in their own country.
They are already fully Korean.
Their bodies.
So you are not going to go back to Uzbekistan
no matter how difficult things get?
No. Never.
- Are you going to live here forever? / - For my kids...
I have to live in Korea.
There are many families with just single moms
as well as just grandparents.
It's not easy keep your families.
I want to raise my children well and healthy
and also achieve my dreams.
I want to become an awesome mom.
You might become a symbol of hope.
Your story is very
inspirational and motivational.
- Good luck! / - Do your best!
This concludes today's My Neighbor, Charles.
- See you next time. / - Good-bye.
That's it.
Who are you?
