body is of tongue leaves, workers all just ears, new series, dying beyond the o, n h, a word, winning document trees from around the corner which is 0. the hundreds of university students across the us if interested is the movement against the war. and gaza continues to grow across the country. the hello, i'm darren jordan, this is obviously around life. and so also coming protests of palestine outside the white house correspondents dinner caused by journalist the boy company event, which is attended by us president turbine. is there any bombardments across the gaza strip as killed at least $27.00 palestinians, including 10 children since some of the more or less punch on the whole in front of
8:01 am
the union buildings in pretoria? with it being celebrations of south africa's 1st free and democratic election that broke nelson mandela and the african national congress to power. 30 years ago, the hundreds of university students across america had been detained so far as round news against the war on guns that had been gathering steam spreading throughout the country. at least i'm tired of not scanner risk some campuses in recent days at times using chemical evidence teases to defer students. some university is about to cancel their graduation ceremonies while others have seen and time building is occupied by protesting students. i'll just say it was john engineer, put some princeton in new jersey. as for students occupying college campuses across the united states,
8:02 am
the price of pro test can be high. there are the arrests, a 100 of them on saturday at northeastern university in boston. and more than 600 over the past week, including 2 here at princeton university, talk about guns and culture. i mean, this is the kinds of culture shut down any discussion and really ranging discussion of this. i mean, for many of these politicians history began on this. we didn't begin on october. the 7th it's, we actually led to october the 7th. and this is 11 for this. but then there is the academic price at princeton work held through protesters. look on, many students were masks to protect their identities that still play by the university's rules, no amplifiers, no sleeping in no tents, including the massive tent, the university put up for an upcoming event. next to the protest encampment. soon
8:03 am
as they're taking some big risk and things protests, if they violate university rules, they can be expelled. and here at princeton tuition is over $50000.00 a year. and for many of them it's in education. they've been looking forward to all their lives. you know, that speaks to how passionate people are about it and we're willing to put that on the line. and we also know that we have power and numbers, palestinian active as linked as our sources. there's an irony in the universe and scaling ethical values and students and then punishing them for exercising those values. they are young people that you don't even have to agree with, but they live in america in a democracy and they have every right to freedom of speech. and they are being brutalized by law enforcement who could be using their time for something else. and in fact, the fact that we are suppressing young people across this country only further emboldens them and continues these types of in caps and work for justice. because that is what appears to be happening in new jersey. new york ended dozens of
8:04 am
universities from coast to coast when college presidents calling police to arrest demonstrators and tear down, protest encampments. the students rebuild the old ones and build new ones on new campuses. john henry and l g 0, princeton, new jersey. what is just over a week since students at columbia university began demanding their school divest from israel students at columbia, posit georgetown, mit and george washington began demanding the same protest spread from the ne, a campuses in michigan, texas and california. how does it was my kind of central this update from outside of students in cumberland, george washington university, in the us capital. over the past 24 hours. the fence behind me here has been sealed . nobody is being allowed in to the area where the tents have been pitched this in order to ensure that it doesn't get to be good, then it is. now if you look over here, this, outside this on
8:05 am
a street running along side universe be square more 10 said being pitched up here in both areas. police say they all here to monitor. they blocked off both sides of this road, running parts university square. but they insist that because the demonstration is peaceful because there has been no vitriolic language that they will just stay and monitor. they will not into peer this despite the fact that the university authorities awesome some 24 hours ago to move in the police declining to do so. and perhaps what's happening here is something that happened way back in june 2020. when dc police forcibly disperse, demonstrate is with but tons and to i guess something that was seen as very bad optics and something that's the police do not want repeated. hence the stand up as a tube at the moment. the university itself, though the thirty's here, have been threatening to suspend students. they are identifying them by the tags
8:06 am
that students use to go into the main buildings next to the square. those are being identified as such. have been threatened with suspension, but the demonstration remains peaceful. the police remain in what is described as a watching mode, montana which is the era washington fil lavelle has this report on the protests of emory university in atlanta, georgia. the feeling here is very much more of a festival, rather than a protest of the moment. i mean, i was just reading playing on this because there are hundreds of people here. they've all been encouraged to break blankets. make something to eat. somebody to drink very much show solidarity for the people in gaza without a cutting. and so i must protest in the sense of what we saw on the 1st day where the police got involved. so people to bring in blankets for bringing food and drink by putting up flags and fighters all over the quad. hey, which way we saw those process on 1st, like they're also being encouraged to write message of support the messages of
8:07 am
support on the ground, which will do whatever they can just to show that the people who because i have no fee for governmental good bringing mason who's one of the organizers here? i'm make some you say all of these people here. it's a completely different atmosphere. so what we saw on thursday, right. right. yeah. um, thursday honestly was very traumatic. the police cracked down was completely violent and the inside of violence against completely peaceful protests. there's. so for the past 2 days, we've kind of been winding down trying to rest. we hear emery, we believe that self care is part of resistance. as one of our alumni from the come to school, if the all to ceteris is a sense, what do you think is the end goal here? like what, what does it look like ideally to you guys? yes, so the end goal is really 3 demands that we have. number one that every disclose all their financial investments. number 2 that they divest from all is really companies. and number 3 that they provide continued amazon production to all the students that were on just the rest of that we've seen a significant lack of police here today. um, yes. could i? um, how does that come about?
8:08 am
yes, i would say frankly that emory university has learned this lesson from thursday. there have been violent police crackdowns on completely peaceful demonstrations of students practicing their 1st amendment, the right to speech, then the right to protest. and for that reason, i think they've kind of just been keeping the police away from us. we are simply continuing to peacefully protest and demonstrate. and we're not violating any policies. we're kind of just here, community building and sending and solidarity with thoughts fine. amazingly, very much, well, the university's position is, uh, is, is quite untenable. say some of the protest is not, is because the president, who was the man that settled 1st a, but the police went right to be here. but the protests were being organized by outside influences. he is now facing calls for him to go and fight a huge number of people. a lot of the faculty, how's advice on friday during which sites so today? well, mainly from motion have no confidence at the moment the president is refusing to move. but of course the protest is i've got that i'm goes in mind. what i'm gonna
8:09 am
do, tom, is that ph. d. students at cornell university, he spoke about the implications, the protests have. other students, us. we've had death threats, we've had people, it was what brings lots of july. we've had police video and taken pictures of us was to be played in the video in the most area place on campus. but other students taking pictures of west blocks us, many about palestinian. i'm with spring students. how out now one can every missions will be pro palestinian. what some of the consequences that i will often with the semester. i might not get paid over the summer. i might have to graduate later than expected this this semester. but i'm taken, and i've tried to watch some what hard of mist everything else may not count to my degree. and i have to repeat it. that's quite a serious thing. and they talk it to the, my understanding people who are precarious positions such as students on visas. and so it seems like the tactic we decides what is they've targeting visible people and
8:10 am
people and prepares positions. why? i think that's the case because people, i mean, the target is full suspensions, right? i've not done anything extraordinary than anyone else. something happens. there's been people who have been me, i've been by my side every step of the way as has been coming to spastic and then not targeted them. meanwhile, in the southern gauze, that just based palestinians that comes in rough or affecting student protest as for the show of solidarity, they've been displaying messages of gratitude on that tense. i said that despite comp downs by universities on the police, close to end, the war had been heard by the people received in johnson. and that, that's how they had to the i'm not sure i had enough with this idea came to us of seeing what was happening in the news, especially the support from the students of the world, particularly the students of columbia university for standing with us, with the humanity, their hearts and their compassion, and we hope the world will stand united with them. we hope for the world to support
8:11 am
them, you know, to arrest them and imprison them. so yes, president to abide in that. suppose gonna be on your white house correspondents dinner, but made no mention of it as well as war on guns that that's despite demonstrations outside the hotel that was hosting the dinna denouncing the by the ministrations handling of the war. hundreds of gentlemen, politicians and celebrities have gathered up a century old event for more than 2 dozen in palestinian john lisco for their colleagues to boy called the white house correspondents dinner. they say the fight, the ministration is complicit. and israel systematic king of palestinian members of the press. but since israel's warrant against the beginning last october, these randy ministry has killed a 142 media will cuz at least 40 palestinian journalists have been arrested by these randy ministry. and the committee to protect journalist says that 2023 was a deadly as the for those in the profession, in a decade. 75 percent of those killed worldwide were palestinians reporting on the war and gaza. i'll just say what she happened. tons who sent us this report from

8:13 am
to be is really government for them to funds this genocide and they've said nothing . and actually it's manufactured consent amongst the american public for the genocide. and they should be ashamed of themselves. and we're here to let them know that lined up outside the washington health and the representation level. the bloodied black jackets of the drum is killed by the is riley's. and yet even this is very power. they didn't have an effect on the attendance of the us press boy inside chancey out, is there a washington area? we spoke to him tell go to the over the phone in central gaza. she told us more about the conditions i left in the, in germany some gaza facing. if i have the word to describe what i have been going through is 10 october 7. this is not something that has been ending. it has been continuous every single day for more than $200.00 days. we have been killed, displaced homeless, and we're not only reporting on this,
8:14 am

but there has been no response because he needs medical treatment. all of the, the things we have been living in as training this. our over run me are exhausting us. but we still continue because there has been at least 100 policy named journalists who i personally know that have been killed since october 7. and if they were here today with us, they would be reporting and they would be raising the voice of the voice. just touch me is missing a new genocide for more than 200 days. meanwhile, on the ground and gaza is ready for stuff killed at least 27 palestinians, including 10 children since saturday morning. they only talk to the homes. indeed minnesota compton, central gaza. and in the rough or at least 34388 palestinians have been killed since the war began. time for a short break here. and i'll just say about when we come back, ukraine and russia targeted each other's energy facilities. rockets and drug
8:16 am
strikes more in that same pod came in to be used as the oil see suffered casualties. we have not suffered to scientology use. thank goodness we did have injuries from a missile strike on a guest house, thought provoking on to who they to say no double standards to all of us. any anyone in particular, i said to facing realities. government seems here to whittle down democracy. if this is troubling for you, it's very, very painful. here. the story on talk to how does era, why have american evangelicals become, his real strongest background? is us president joe find the right to stand with this real with no red line? as long as us support continues, is there anything that can stop is real, solve on concept, from going on in? definitely a quizzical look at us politics. the bottom line. we know what's happening in our
8:17 am
region. we know how to get to places that others pinhole viewer guides by the parties on purpose, half the time, and it's to go live on the, on the go live. another story that may not be mainstream the, the way that you tell the story is what can make a difference. the, the welcome back to watching out. just a real quick reminder about top stories here. this our hundreds of university students across the united states of interest in protests,

8:19 am
the resulting reminder that there is any money to take those as rarely coverages, as opposed to a $1000000.00 and shows an indication about typical tax, although strongly advise it's a couple minutes. i'm sorry, you said that every time you go to a deal, the sabotage you said is there on how much i'm not showing no commitment to reaching the same spot in a whole state to release out into the pressure. my problem is the benjamin i bet benjamin netanyahu beach protest gathering some calls very. i believe, for people who know who is deliberately saving. so
8:20 am
i'll just tell me. so don't forget has not 30 years since it's historic 1st democratic election in 1994. it's not the end of apartheid president serial. i'm a post that defended his governing african national congress. his record during celebrations on south today. for the opinion polls suggest support for the amc is dwindling ahead of next month, jen. and then action. i'll just say it was doing a whole has more now from pretoria it was a celebration of the events that ended upon the date of the civil war and gave bus to a new south africa, 13 years ago, president to run the post said freedoms bills had run out to across the country that they jo oppression. a new nation rooted in quantity. the human size is
8:21 am
among the greatest see. and the 2 friends of modern history. on the 27th of april 1994 millions of black south africans voted for the 1st time. the election swept nelson mandela and the african national congress to power what became known as the rainbow nation. we had just been a break freedom days and we is my d d. we invited them to come into the bay as we as we are, as young as we are we, i can't stand for ourselves. and then since i was young, i know the events of 30 years ago still viewed significance. they delivered the free and democratic society in which everyone now lives with rights, with justice, but not necessarily opportunities for the promise of a better life. the rule remains elusive. for many and what the will bank list as
8:22 am
the most on equal country on the $1.00 and $3.00 are unemployed infrastructure is from blake crime and corruption rice in an election year with the amc losing ground to other parties. the president said he would continue to work towards the vision and ideals of 1994 south africans. to put that promise many times before. jo, how elder 0 victoria. while i'm at the celebrations, many south africans complain that there are many unfulfilled promises from that historic vote in 1994, somebody. the mentor reports not from alexander township in john, his books to the governing african national congress has for years promised a better life pool. and to some extent, it's delivered. it's provided free base to get you cation. it's also both millions of homes for people who don't have any. and it's also provided running water and electricity, especially in rural areas. but many here in the alexander township,
8:23 am
most of johannesburg, few very different t. they say enough hasn't been done. many of the homes here are in formal housing, both with corrugated cheating, with whatever material people can find, including plastic, to create some sort of shelter. housing here is hard to come by. it's an area that is densely populated. now the government is having difficulty with a short full of at least $2800000.00 homes. and each other grows by at least a $180000.00 people use a more needs to be done. there's things that we can celebrate. the things that i feel we, we not yet at that point to celebrate one we, we not eh, liberated as blacks of africans. we still haven't gotten the freedom to financial freedom for us. so that's how i know it hasn't changed. i have a few thoughts, put things in it like this. people are living with like these very promising
8:24 am
applies. wow. so the africans acknowledge that they have been liberal rates that they have the right to vote. many, especially the areas like the say they haven't been liberated in terms of the economy. they have limited access and that and equality. this is one of the most an equal societies on earth, and they say the gap between the rich and what is only growing so many. the ultra 0 alexandra township to have his bug. a national period of morning has been declared in chalet of, of the killing of 3 police officers, colleagues up and remembering them during a parade in the capital. the men were attacked and killed in that car was responding to 3 false emergency cools. the incident took place and the rock of province retentions have been running high between you also, it is local indigenous peoples. the
