The speaker can't find their money and decides to look for it later. They call out to Ximena and Alan, urging them to get up for school. The speaker's sister doesn't want to go to school, but the mother emphasizes the importance of education, mentioning that in some countries, girls and women are not allowed to study. Specifically, the Taliban in Pakistan restricts women's rights and limits their social roles. The speaker mentions Malala Yusufzai, who fought for girls' education and survived an assassination attempt. She started the Malala Fund and won the Nobel Peace Prize at 17. The speaker realizes the privilege of being able to go to school and encourages their sister to get up for school. It can't be! Where have I left my money? Here! I can't find it! But why haven't I put it in my purse? Never mind, I will look for it later. In the meantime, I have already bought the stuff to cook later. I wonder if Ximena and Alan have gotten up yet. Ximena! Alan! Get up! What? You have gone to school many times very late because you got up very late! Mom, my sister doesn't want to go to school. You have to go take advantage of the fact that you have been having opportunities. What do you mean, mom? Isn't this supposed to be everyone's basic right to go to school? You are right. This moment for religious, political, social and even economic reasons. There are many countries that do not allow girls and women to study. Like in Pakistan where the Taliban gained education for women? That's right. Remember that the Taliban is a political-religious movement, a diplomatic military organization where they have an ideology that dictates that women should only complete limited and stereotypical social roles. Which ones? They cannot wear the clothes and make-up they want. They must not be seen by other men. They cannot play sports. They cannot ride a bicycle or a motorcycle. They cannot work and they cannot even go to school. That's horrible! So they couldn't wear their favorite dresses? That's right. That's why there are many women who to this day fight for the rights of the girls and women in countries with this regime. Really? As who? Like Mariela Yusufzai, who since 15 years old, re-decides her country's regime to defend the right of all girls to access education but was shot several times as a result. No way! Really? That's right. Fortunately, she survived and got over 2 million people to sign a petition for the right to education at the National Assembly to ratify the country's fair, right to free and compulsory education bill. And together with her father, she has founded the Malala Fund with the aim of raising awareness of the social and economic effects of girls' education and empowering them to demand change. And at 17, for December 3040, she became the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Has she achieved so much at such a young age? Unbelievable! I didn't know how much women suffer to be able to study. I know that. That's why we are fortunate to be able to exercise alright without any problem. But already we have spent too much time talking. You have to hurry to get to school. Ok, mom. You convinced me. I'll make my sister stand up right now. Hurry up! Because we're going to be late. To be continued...
