00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000


2
00:00:12,699 --> 00:00:14,421
So we just held a self defense 

3
00:00:14,421 --> 00:00:16,755
demonstration for women's history Month . 

4
00:00:16,755 --> 00:00:18,866
We had Professor Elizabeth Bravo from 

5
00:00:18,866 --> 00:00:20,810
Cao Jujitsu out here . The goal of 

6
00:00:20,810 --> 00:00:22,977
today was to show women's self defense 

7
00:00:22,977 --> 00:00:25,088
showcase that and also educate people 

8
00:00:25,088 --> 00:00:27,088
about the suffrage movement and the 

9
00:00:27,088 --> 00:00:29,143
suits that occurred in the late 19th 

10
00:00:29,143 --> 00:00:30,755
century , early 20 century . 

11
00:00:39,340 --> 00:00:41,396
So we wanted to talk about when self 

12
00:00:41,396 --> 00:00:43,430
defense first came to the Western 

13
00:00:43,439 --> 00:00:45,717
cultures , which started with suffrage , 

14
00:00:45,717 --> 00:00:47,828
it empowered the women , it gave them 

15
00:00:47,828 --> 00:00:49,828
confidence and we feel that it's so 

16
00:00:49,828 --> 00:00:51,970
important nowadays to empower women 

17
00:00:51,979 --> 00:00:54,201
with self defense . There are still not 

18
00:00:54,201 --> 00:00:56,257
many women who train , for example , 

19
00:00:56,257 --> 00:00:58,630
Liz is rare . She's like one in 15,000 . 

20
00:00:58,689 --> 00:01:00,467
So we need more women out there 

21
00:01:00,467 --> 00:01:02,745
training to be confident and empowered . 

22
00:01:08,580 --> 00:01:10,636
Had a great turnout . We got lots of 

23
00:01:10,636 --> 00:01:12,747
interest from both men and women . We 

24
00:01:12,747 --> 00:01:14,913
had a chief here . We had general . He 

25
00:01:14,913 --> 00:01:17,136
so that was amazing . I would encourage 

26
00:01:17,136 --> 00:01:19,247
everybody . Men and women . Check out 

27
00:01:19,247 --> 00:01:21,302
self defense . Check out the history 

28
00:01:21,302 --> 00:01:23,358
too for self defense for women , the 

29
00:01:23,358 --> 00:01:25,413
women's right to vote , the suffrage 

30
00:01:25,413 --> 00:01:27,524
movement . It's only been very recent 

31
00:01:27,524 --> 00:01:29,691
that we started making this progress . 

32
00:01:29,691 --> 00:01:31,747
So check it out and let's see how we 

33
00:01:31,747 --> 00:01:30,639
can be better .
