5:02 am

5:04 am
just went up online. it cnn.com slash gaza voices. and they underscore. another frustration that it has taken so long for the us to draw this line on the crisis. let's hear now from two people with unique perspectives on this salima cis well, is the founder of the black muslim leadership council, also with us is heni almadhoun, who recently helped launch a soup kitchen in gaza. welcome to you both. salima, let me start with you because you attended this white house meeting this week with the president to express frustrations with how the administration is handling the war. i wonder what you think of the new tone from president biden. and the changes seemingly in response, israel now saying it's going to open the erez crossing and allow more aid in to gaza >> well, thank you so much for having me, victor, i think our
5:05 am
sentiments to the president were very well received. i also believe that he was deeply impacted by the death of seven humanitarian aid workers enough is enough. it's come time to bring these words when n, we express their to both the president as well as the vice president, who both agreed. >> hand in your family founded or co-founded this gazan soup kitchen? >> and you're >> doing fantastic work. i've seen online feeding the people who you could reach and can get to you but the palestinian red crescent says that 31 children have now died from starvation and dehydration. people in northern gaza are eating grass what more do you want to see from this administration >> that's exactly right. my family actually at the soup kitchen delivers the kamala adwan hospital food and everyday, there is less kids that are there because
5:06 am
unfortunately the they die from those conditions. she is the said the last one is the boy named name the brahim in the jar. he's not even two years old and just passed away, broke our hearts chilean be your civilians, like myself here, go fund me and my family to go feed people with a problem that they have nothing to do with my brother and my family has been through hell. i've lost my brother in november and this is surprising to hear the guest talk about change behavior. it's not what they say, it's what they do. >> i'd >> like we started the soup kitchen because my family was eating pigeon food, the rabbit food for the longest time and we're not find it easy to source these material basically, we're cooking with canned food we're cooking with the forage, all that stuff because we want to be there for our neighbors. it's heartbreaking because many competent and great ngos are unable and denied access to go deliver for families like mine. the remains 300,000 persons in the north gaza and they remain with very little food. and we want to be a response theorems
5:07 am
so glad so many americans care about this and this support over campaigns. more needs to be ceasefire, more humanitarian good >> have you let me stay with you. the seven world central kitchen workers who were killed this week our, according to the yen, just seven of the close to 200 aid workers who have been killed in gaza. >> i >> wonder how this moment, especially changes are influence how you all do the work that you do absolutely. yes. so 173 of these folks worked for a little colleague of mine at my old job, but an era get killed last month. so there's a live heartbreak. our family's stepping up our operations, so we used to cook with three parts. now we're cooking at capacity eight parts. we started to move moreover, signing a new old female soup kitchen as well. maybe we'll cook something when we have flower. so it's a struggle everyday. we need a series of small americans right
5:08 am
now ngos are closing closing their soup kitchens, and we're already serving about 500 to 600. the family a day. there is more needs to be done. we're aware we can't wait to see more ngos and humanitarian relief to support our people. but also it's hard for them to do their job without a sense of safety and without a ceasefire so i'm hoping my family will stay safe. i'm so worried for their safety tsr that i call the white house and gave the coordinates for the soup kitchen because after what we've seen, the horrors last week, i really want my family to be safe for last step, brother, i cannot emotionally afford to lose my mahmoud, who's running the kitchen. >> selima, the council on american-islamic relations focusing back here in the they say that they've received more than 8,000 reports of anti-muslim bias in 2023. that's a 56% increase over the previous year. the highest in 28 years they've tracked it
5:09 am
disproportionate amount since the start of the war. this is more, more than after nine, 11, more than after trump's so called muslim travel ban what do we all need to do right now to fight that trend well, i think that is >> really important to know that what is happening in the middle east right now is impacting american lives as well. here in my city of philadelphia, i have experienced over for a minimum of four masjid vandalism in my community in philadelphia. and then their surrounding suburbs. and so it's definitely a threat since the war in israel and we want the president to know that if he doesn't cease fire, that this is something that is also impacting americans in our safety. and so it's very, very important to the attention to so lemma says, well, hani, i'm a dune. thank you both >> well now a >> decision that analysts think is a positive development for the biden campaign, the group no labels considering the rather considered fielding third-party challenger and the
5:10 am
presidential race, but no labels found no candidate. and according to my next guest the hero, we needed did not emerge. so now what it's asked civil rights leader dr. benjamin chavis, he is a national co-chair of no labels. good to see you again. >> let me >> start here. so for weeks ago, about 800 no labels delegates got together and decided, yes, let's move forward. we're going to move forward with this ticket and find candidates. what changed between. then four weeks ago and the decision to say, now, we can't do it well, thank you, victor. good morning. it's good to see you. well, i just want to remind everyone the beginning of the process over a year ago. no labels said that if we could not find not only the candidates, but also a pathway, the victory, we would stand down our organization has a lot of integrity and we kept our because will happen is that
5:11 am
we while we interviewed some worthy people they decided not to run and they decided not to run because they didn't think that they could win and we didn't think they could moon and therefore, we stood down. that's what we said we were going to be kept by word to the american people, but no labels is not going away, but not disappearing we have valid access and 21 states we're going to figure out what to do with that so i think the organization made the right decision at the right time. >> okay several things here. when you say that you realize and i went back and watched your interviews from a year ago and you said and joe cunningham said that if we can it fine or we can't find a way to win, we won't do what we can't. we won't be spoilers here. what did you see then? that is clear. now because some of the critics of no labels have said there was never a path to two 70 well, you know there's
5:12 am
always possibilities. if you have the right formula together, the right team together. and i think people criticize no labels unfairly and unjustly because we'd never stated on the record that we would not be in smaller and we kept faith cap. i word to the american people i think that this is a learning process victim. i think it also tells you something about the two-party system. that is very difficult for third party to get momentum. and united states, because it to establish part is worked very hard to make sure that doesn't happen >> we watched the parade of former candidates and this cycle and previous cycles who i guess had some engagement with no labels, turn them down, talking chris christie, nikki haley, larry hogan of maryland. we've got the faces. we can put up. joe manchin as well, who all said, no, this is not
5:13 am
my time, even former georgia lieutenant governor geoff duncan. what did they tell you? that >> they couldn't win over >> you couldn't win >> no. i think that each person that was interviewed had different circumstances so there's no one answer to all the people that we interview. but just let me say this running for president of the united states. running for vice president has as a serious endeavor, you not only put yourself out there, you put your family out there, you put whatever your connections out there and so there was a weighted decision for people to be considered. animals are decision for whether or not they were going to have the courage to do it. so it was a combination of vibes, no one single thing. >> i just said when you said you have ballot access in 21 states and now you've got to figure out what to do with it without a candidate, what what are your options? i mean, there's nothing you can do. you have well, i we will see
5:14 am
right now over 1 million people signed up with no labels we are in the ballot access in 21 states >> so we have figured out >> again once you haven't candidate to put into those slots in these places, let me one more before i go here. i don't >> have a candidate for president or vice president. >> okay. let me ask you before you go. without a third-party candidate who are you going to support in november >> i'm going to support the best candy. obviously, i'm not going to support down the trump because he's an existential threat >> but i mean, you're going to vote for president biden i'm just i just say i'm not going to go for it. i'm not gonna vote for kennedy >> okay what i want to if you're not going to vote for them, why can't you say you can vote for president biden? is there another person you considered? >> no. i'm gonna vote for >> first of >> all, i'm not encouraging
5:15 am
them one to vote for intervalic this point. but i'm just telling you who i personally would not vote for all right. >> dr. ben chavis, thanks so much coming up. health and social justice organizations. they're tired of waiting. and now they're suing the fda for the delay. they say it's costing black five i'll speak to one of those critics next plus no eating, no drinking, no activities, just quiet reflection by some native american community here it is having a much different approach to monday's solar eclipse >> it's a new day for shared values propel us towards a more secure future through august, a partnership built upon cutting-edge american australian, and british

5:22 am
>> we >> found a new lawsuit because we really want to let the biden administration know that we are not going anywhere and that we will not allow this issue to be pushed back in we don't know what's going to happen with our next election. if we're going to have a change in administration. and so it makes it more critical, more crucial that we get the job done and that we get the job done right now, we've been waiting a long time and we're not going to we're going to keep pushing forward until we can get the tobacco industry out of our communities. and stop killing the 45,000 black people who die every year in this country from tobacco induced diseases. >> you said politics 2020 study shows 30% of white smokers prefer menthol 83% of black smokers do and we've discussed at length, the president has some ground to make up with black voters. do you believe that? november 2024 is what they're watching? and that that is why they have it
5:23 am
finalized this rule that they don't want to annoy or disappoint or anger black smokers before they have to go and vote i think that that's part of it, but the bigger part of it is the tobacco industry's interference. and so they have the tobacco industry have historically utilized certain african americans to espouse their rhetoric. and so this was documented with our colleague dr. vallerie jurgen group alone smoking with the enemy where food, the tobacco industry's own internal documents. we see how they utilize our people. and so this, the issue of of, of waiting longer, it's for us, it's we can't wait any longer that every every delay, every year means that more of our children, more of our people are smoking there are some you know, there's comedy about this. and so why do black people smoke newport's? black people smoke newport's because

5:49 am
you knows, the non-profit that manages organ transplants in the advised hospitals to stop using that test the national institutes of health found that white patients were twice as likely as black patients to be rated as appropriate candidates for organ transplants joining me now is jasmine evans. jasmine, good morning to you when you saw and you received the letter and you saw the 2019 eligibility date when you actually put on the list and the 2015 date when you should have been put on that list, what went through your mind? >> at first, i was very shocked. i was outraged as a mid 20 i can start that big chunk of my life was really thank you. in from me. and so i went to tiktok and basically expressed my outrage on something like this. i was happening >> committee member, the organization that runs the donation and transplant network
5:50 am
said this so many african americans have been affected by the use of race inclusive calculations and have become very ill or have died waiting for the opportunity to list for a kidney transplant thousands have been modified on this list since this rule change, what would those four years have meant for your quality of life for mental health >> i think it would have meant everything during the time that i went on the transplant list and i started dialysis around the same time too. i was also entering into my ph d program that added a lot of extra stress. it added a lot of extra time especially having that symptom days and things of that nature. also just this thought a process of will i die waiting for a transplant? i've known many stories of this happening, whether it was within my own community or within the transplant community. so even having to deal with this issue of mortality at a very young
5:51 am
age, it was very stressful and i definitely had bouts of depression the things of that nature. and so i think being able to have those years back not having that stress of it. i'm going to even wake up the next morning, you know i think that the overall quality of my life would have been a complete one at before you receive that letter what did your doctors tell you if anything, about how your race played into where you would be eligible or when you would be eligible to go on to the list for transplant >> i actually was not told anything at all luckily, with my academic background for my master's thesis, i studied scientific racism and medical racism. so that prompted me to go back and look at my charts and look at different times as and i noticed that there was a difference between the gfr in the gfr so i did my own due diligence to really see what was happening.

could basically catch a lot of these preventable diseases. for me, i will say that the work that you knows in opt in are doing right now does give us a glimmer of hope that there are people out there that are pushing the needle, oil change in equity within that i hope care system. but i'm also sober to remember that we still have a very long way to go. there are still thousands of black americans that are waiting for oregon's across the board, not just it's who simply to kidney transplants. and so i think that we need to keep using our voices. i think that we need to keep holding our doctors and our physicians accountable for the work that they are doing. and so that they could also uphold their own old to do no harm to the patient in front of them, no matter their race or creed. >> so you've received the kidney. how are you doing >> i'm doing great. >> my >> kidney is working perfectly fine i'm really blessed to be on this app jasmine evans.
