Aline Rochedo Pachamama, a representative of the Puri people from Mantiqueira, begins her speech with warm greetings, acknowledging her ancestral roots and the significance of the name "Abdala," which means “the land that pulses” and refers to the pre-colonization name of their continent. During her speech, she recounts a dream in which she is playing two heavy maracas, representing the weight of her heritage and struggles, alongside a spirit or ancestor who helps her to sing and connect with the rhythm and spirit of the land. She emphasizes that the day dedicated to women's struggles should not be merely a celebration but a moment to remember and honor the dignity and honor of past struggles, particularly those of Indigenous women, Black women, Romani women, as well as vulnerable women in a capitalist and patriarchal society. Aline reflects on the historical oppression faced by these groups, drawing attention to the deep-rooted issues of colonization and the importance of acknowledging their histories and experiences. She calls for unity and recognition of the strength of women, embodied in nature and the earth, and honors her ancestors and grandmothers, urging the audience to understand and resist ongoing colonial legacies. The presentation underscores the vital connection to heritage and the collective strength of women to transform their narratives and fight against oppression, culminating in a call to action for social change inspired by ancestral wisdom. The speech is part of a broader educational initiative at the Federal University of Ouro Preto, directed by Gláucio Santos and others.
Today's smog disproportionately affects the academic researchers in the field of distance education technology. In the past, the educational system in China was centralized and catered to different ethnic groups, with distinct institutions for different groups such as the National School, the Nine Mongolian Schools, and the National School for Women. Additionally, there were specialized schools for medicine and nutrition, as well as for Mongolian self-study. These institutions were all part of the central government's education system, providing comprehensive education. However, there were disparities in treatment and discrimination against certain ethnic groups, with better opportunities for Mongolian and Manchurian students. Success in examinations could lead to official positions, with Mongolian students often achieving higher ranks. Despite the focus on Han Chinese education, there were also advancements in other areas such as military education. Scholars like Zhu Jia contributed significantly to the field of education, preserving Han culture and influencing the Yuan Dynasty's educational policies. The exchange of knowledge between scholars from different ethnic groups impacted the cultural landscape, with the promotion of Han studies in Mongol-controlled regions. Notably, the study of special documents and the compilation of historical texts played a crucial role in preserving cultural heritage. The development of literature, particularly in the form of dramas, further enriched the cultural scene during the Yuan Dynasty, with renowned playwrights like Wang Shifu and Guan Hanqing making significant contributions. The emergence of novels during this time period, including classics like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin," signaled a new era in literary expression.
