While preparing for my talk

当我准备演讲的时候，

I was reflecting on my life and trying to figure out

我在反思我的人生并试着想出

where exactly was that moment when my journey began.

我的旅程是从何时开始的。

A long time passed by, and I simply couldn't figure out

很长时间过去了，但我还是不知道

the beginning or the middle or the end of my story.

自己故事的开头，中间，结尾在哪。

I always used to think that my beginning

我一向以为故事开始于，

was one afternoon in my community when my mother had told me

那个在社区的下午，妈妈告诉我

that I had escaped three arranged marriages by the time I was two.

两岁时我就逃过了三次包办婚姻。

Or one evening when electricity had failed for eight hours in our community,

或一天晚上社区停了八小时电，

and my dad sat, surrounded by all of us,

我们围坐在爸爸周围，

telling us stories of when he was a little kid struggling to go to school

听他讲自己小时候争取上学，

while his father, who was a farmer, wanted him to work in the fields with him.

而身为农民的父亲想让他 在田地里和他一起劳作的故事。

Or that dark night when I was 16

when three little kids had come to me and they whispered in my ear

that my friend was murdered in something called the honor killings.

我的朋友因“有损家庭荣誉”而被杀害。

But then I realized that,

但我意识到，

as much as I know that these moments have contributed on my journey,

尽管这些事情是我旅程的一部分，

they have influenced my journey

影响了这旅程，

but they have not been the beginning of it,

但他们都不是起点，

but the true beginning of my journey was in front of a mud house

而真正的起点是在巴基斯坦，上信德省

in upper Sindh of Pakistan,

一座土坯房前,

where my father held the hand of my 14-year-old mother

我父亲拉着我十四岁的母亲,

and they decided to walk out of the village

他们决定离开这个村子,

to go to a town where they could send their kids to school.

去一个能够让孩子们上学的镇子的时候。

In a way, I feel like my life

从某种程度来看，我觉得我的人生

is kind of a result of some wise choices and decisions they've made.

是他们的明智选择和决定的结果。

And just like that, another of their decisions

与此相同，他们的另外一个决定

was to keep me and my siblings connected to our roots.

是让我和兄弟姐妹们保留着传统。

While we were living in a community I fondly remember as called Ribabad,

以前住在一个我怀念的 被称作 Ribabad 的社区，

which means community of the poor,

意思是穷人的社区，

my dad made sure that we also had a house in our rural homeland.

I come from an indigenous tribe in the mountains of Balochistan

called Brahui.

Brahui, or Brohi, means mountain dweller, and it is also my language.

Brahui 或者 Brohi，意思是 住在山上的人，同时也是我的语言。

Thanks to my father's very strict rules about connecting to our customs,

I had to live a beautiful life of songs, cultures, traditions, stories, mountains,

some to older men, some in exchange,

when I saw that the birth of a girl child was celebrated with sadness,

当女人们被教导耐心 是最大的美德时，

when women were told to have patience as their main virtue.

I would find my cousins and friends with scarves on their faces,

But we are working in the streets for you!

We are changing the policies.

So then we found out something which was very amazing for us.

The policies of a country

do not necessarily always affect the tribal and rural communities.

So this time, we were like, we are going to do something different.

所以这一次，我们要做一些不一样的事情。

We are going to use strategy,

It took a lot of convincing and discussions with these communities

Women were coming to make embroidery,

妇女们来这里做刺绣，

and going through a life-changing process of education,

learning about their rights, what Islam says about their rights,

women are supposed to be shoulder to shoulder with men.

Women have so much status that we have not been hearing,

妇女拥有许多我们未曾听闻的地位，

that they have not been hearing,

她们也未曾听闻，

and we needed to tell them that they need to know

where their rights are and how to take them by themselves,

After six months, we would connect these women to loans and to markets

where they can become local entrepreneurs in their communities.

这样她们就成为当地社区的企业家。

We soon called this project Sughar.

Sughar is a local word used in many, many languages in Pakistan.

All we had to do was remove the barriers that surrounded them,

They stopped them from coming to the centers,

We went to the fashion industry in Pakistan

我们去巴基斯坦的时尚业，

Turns out the fashion industry in Pakistan is very strong and growing day by day,

结果是巴基斯坦的时尚业非常强劲，逐日增长，

but there is less contribution from the tribal areas

但是却很少出现部落文化元素，

and to the tribal areas, especially women.

也没有为部落尤其是女性的时尚设计。

So we decided to launch our first ever tribal women's very own fashion brand,

which is now called Nomads.

现在叫“Nomads".

And so women started earning more,

妇女们开始赚更多钱，

they started contributing more financially to the house,

从经济上为家庭贡献更多，

and men had to think again before saying no to them

when they were coming to the centers.
