and those the headlines will use fear in a little over twenty five minutes on al jazeera right after the stream next. there's a barber. goes from what you have to. as . this story is. told by the people. from the ok in your in the stream today we'll take a look at the mothers of wink of the last night in sweden it's a new al-jazeera documentary about a group of women improving their neighborhood while buckling against corrosive

stereotypes imo they could be a lot of will speak to the producer of the film and discuss whether sweden's reputation for tolerance and community harmony is under threat send us your comments via twitter and the live chat. so we didn't ace facing a period of political limbo after the fall right sweden democrats recorded its best ever general election result to finish third overall that performance is troubling for the country's center left and center right blocs neither of which won a majority in the national legislature the strong showing by this weekend democrats is also unsettling news for those who have settled in sweden after fleeing war and violence many immigrants live in or in could be a suburb of the capital stockholm the area has long been called a crime ridden no go zone by far right politicians and some media outlets but to

many including one group of somali swedish women it is simply home and they are working around the clock to improve it from within i shone in the mothers of ring to be last night in sweden have a look. some of the. if. not the minimum force. on the mom or some don't sweat young. man is going to. keep gratitude.

for more in the dock comanche under the social climate in sweden we are joined from stopped by fat money she produced the mothers of recovery and as a people the award winner also in stockholm we have had she has a visual artist whose work focuses on issues of identity and nationhood alexander across the leader who is a journalist and human rights activist she immigrated with her family to sweden as a young girl and settled and she joins us from stockholm and completing a line up from the swedish capital rashid he is a teacher and community activist whose help was key to the production of the mothers of rinky how everybody it's really good to have you here what a vision of sweden you present so that this and this going into a community telling their story allowing them to tell a story when they've already been labeled a no go zone what makes you want to do that.

thanks for having me this the most awkward serious of the year. and they wanted to do something from sweden that specifically funding to be. it was they told me that a little bit difficult to find in the film is the make up on that because they were told that it's difficult to fill in the and then after you know that. the contract is known journalist because it is possible as long as we have the martin link it be it is anything but. one place where the hardworking people are getting from different cultures and it's it's a place that you could look at all home and after spending more time than i can actually i can see that it's home and i think by reza going back there more and more now because of the problems we managed to capture while in the in the film it was important to ensure that they could be gets a fair representation because in the near. incision whenever you talk about it

could be if you just google when i was doing my own research and all you see is that writing burning towers and novels in a positive story or any any simple student back to place it was important to go in and actually give the people and the police a better indication and a chance to show the outside world that what you see in the media isn't necessarily the full truth. but i want to back up what you're saying with a comment from the film's director who sent us a video comment and this is what happened i did i had to say about why he made the film what i'm hoping for when people see this film that they see. it could be. a place about things happened but good people leave they're. not he's not in the way the western media portrayed us. just as

a good which is which is he's just not that it's far from it so. i hope this. gives a little bit more balance. so alexander he talks about balance there before you dive in on that i want to read this tweet from offer on nasir she says i heard that ring could be as locals allowed and i haven't heard team to film there only because the team wasn't from sweden's public service t.v. wrinklies locals think he is biased against them can you please discuss why they feel that way and why the media is disliked by ring i wonder not specifically looking at one channel in particular but why is there this feeling of distrust coming from someone i'd like the answer from someone who's not only from there but also is a journalist can you help us understand our international audience. ok this is just has been since i was a kid and i grew up in the to be because media came out there and the interviewed

us and they studied us and they filmed that like. we were like you know animals in a zoo is so exciting and they asked us very very strange questions i have to say and then when we saw there is it was we were so sad because it always portrayed us as a let others that the strangers the you know the immigrants and . it was it was like the very very heart breaking to read in a place in a small suburb that you really really love that and you had all her friends and everybody and then when you watched t.v. you were curtseying like it was like a big and charitable and cherry playing ghetto or something so this distrust is nothing new i think that people weren't quite right not watching this show in chicago or even in milan back and in belgium in that paris and different suburbs

around the world that are segregated than there are who are there are. lasers where migrants and refugees live i think everybody recognizes what hat went when and when journalists when media come and for training because we are always there on the list and one of the main problems is of course i mean see is back in the days when i was a kid the lack our diversity in the media there are almost no migrants in media there on the migrant wasn't minority forces there are no black people or people of color and no working class kids working there so it's also a matter of class and this is doing and you know all these factors so it will happen and it distrusting mean. and suddenly one day i heard gone media. and that was the day when me and some friends of mine decided to start you know

meaning and start doing. or we. were in the news back you back in the day alexander we won't ask you how old you are so deal there was something about this documentary which really stands out and it's just the story of these are among those who have a day jobs they have things to do who then in the evening patrol the streets of their neighborhood it's remarkable when you first saw it what did you what did you make of that. well i have the luxury of seeing it where premiered in stockholm and i have the luxury of watching the director and faulkner talk about it and talk about how the making of the movie made them have to challenge their own prejudice about how certain stories are told but my first reaction was of course recognition i saw so much of my mom in these moms and i saw so much of myself

in these stories that are never told in the fact that we are never really truly represented and i think latching on to what alexander said about the media the fact that we we don't trust the media in that sense is that our story is never really told in a fair manner we never really get to dictate the conversation in which we are talked about and this is a huge part of why it's hard to trust outside media when it comes to something that's so close to your heart now i'm not i haven't grown up with stockholm so i haven't grown up or it could be but i grew up about three hours away from stockholm in a really small town and we heard stories about being could be reheard stories about no go zones well we certainly thought he had to deal with the stories that you had we heard that it was messy and that they had to like drug issues and gang violence and that their only black people there they had taken over and we'd be which we did

. yeah we do you know a lot of criminality and who now that it's always i mean a bigger problem imo who are people that i know are there it possibilities or no i think it's you know the problem is every time that meet. the only you criminal guys they never ever that's why i really want to congratulate them thank you for the supplementary. prove it because i'm so happy in this one. this arrogance of the why we never ever year or so much women in the congress exactly are it's a little let me do that rashid i'm going to play this little clip i'd love to hear what you think about this this is a little clip of of the mothers on patrol and so we remember this is a no go zone it is in the evening i want you to look beyond the moms and their bright orange jackets and see the sights that they break up have

a look. and a leg a little. bit behind. you see good for them so how come you. never did you did that had to get in. there but i. wasn't. oh that's mom power your mom going to break in you know how democracy is that. this is the this is the reality of brink of a rasheed so we've gone from the stereotype and it's drugs and it's really scary to the reality of it you live in that the next neighborhood along so you know what

it's like what is the story that's not getting out about this area in severe. well is a lot of stories actually. you know the mothers are the backbone of the community and so the best story never gets you also the story of the a strong civil society you have a lot of n.g.o.s that are engaged in social issue social issues. so there's a lot of story there a lot of football clubs in. there a lot of poetry club general could be there a lot of extra activities that or that are arranged by the community it so and it's not backed by the government or funded by authorities. or getting economic resources from someone else is a vibrant community there is much lobbying kicking so in seeing that clip community online had thoughts this is andy who writes on twitter i love that

they're doing something instead of waiting for the government but should they be this is brought up in the street from panesar he says at one point in the film one of the super moms tells us about a joke she makes with the police that she does their job for them is this really a joke how severely has swedish authority authorities failed young people of color in sweden foster i'll give that to you it was passed off as a joke but our community seems to be asking does the burden fall on these moms. the media. always put on the patterns they say that they don't do anything at that they're all going to tell their kids that behaving but i do believe that you have to also look now. oh my god back not just now with that climate for election when they're locked the base we've got one of the we neither of the second last option will come to the fat and so kids who want to read them they call them

sweden ball migrant kids it makes you seem how do these kids in it feel when i when i go to the factory and sweet and when are we ever going to be seeing that part of the country of the community we're always with that always given us leave and no matter what we do when we when we when we where we take their jobs and when we don't we don't want to work so it's built like you never know and then just imagine for the children growing up in this country we obviously the president and all the difficulty that some of it and. not understanding how to make the best part of the got to get before all of this can easily be backed up by facts and i did read that write an article about the regulation of finally and the one report that came out a few bucks here and it talks about kids are not going to search one of them this

bar and treated by the who so that way if things are going to change that has to be a change and a modest there are often solutions and the way that approach is working is not the full solution because that's what you have to work with the police because it's a it's a state so we've got what was a pretty thing i don't believe in that moment there often anything and you have to change their approach you have to actually engage with the people from the in the community you have to talk to them not talk about them and talk around them until you have to talk to them. we gave them and there's a song we can see it's a case i'm going to just add and then i was away from the point that when we were able to make this bomb or to come out the way it is because. it's prosecuted by the people in the in the community it was very important because exactly like an example i have used and people don't trust the media because of the been done several times for the mr presentation in the media have let people to mistrust and

i want to also add them and if they did it's not to have the article i was not allowed because that also plays into the idea of why they the gates is released and by the people and they let us in the know what i liked what would happen but getting access to the people and in having that we needed we needed to it took time for us to gain the trust that with the food and locks and one like that but when he was there and also in the story. can i also join in on the on the to eat or do you want to die down here and then alex i'm going second. while what the the the joke that they're doing the police that the the that are doing the police job that's not uncommon for people people of color in sweden we have been having to create our own spaces and create our own opportunities and clear create our own safety for years we've never been included in in spaces where our

stories are being told in a fair manner that's never been a thing so it's not just the fact that they are out there taking responsibility for their community and that's the part that they're doing instead of the police officers or their thirty's but in every situation in every context we always have to create our own way in our own opportunity where we're just not included in a way that is fair alexandra. and if you i mean i'm thinking of the gender issue here that you have this is maybe i'm a problem i mean. you have it leaves. i mean they don't have it somehow they think they are not able to get. the trust that they need it for so many reasons also a reason is because they also lack of it in the police force but then you have the

mothers and i interviewed so many mothers around the country in so many different no go zones in like twenty you know because young as they call that xander let me just pick you up you said no go zones why would you say that when you're living rick of a number listen i don't listen i don't use the word expression because of the use it so everybody here understands what it is i do you only think change starts with changing the language. yes but we have to know what exactly we can fix that language but i'm saying i'm using that pressure right now so you understand what we're talking about so when they talk about these no go zones we see that the mothers in different places in different sub are. cooler summers the most of them vulnerable. and that's what i call them least you know the mothers are the ones that can handle that and their own culture of youth but i mean that the interesting thing here is that all the mothers at mit. elucidating who are all the

mothers and then shortly do it for free so i wonder maybe it's time for the police for this what the government or at least you should do how do. these mummers give them jobs because many of them are unemployment and why should they you know work for three around the country to help the police with the police cannot do so i think that's also our. you know alexander the questions you're asking i think are what's represented in this tweet from vanessa who has praise for both you and bottom a she says bottom a stark and alexandra's both are groundbreaking and i think it is very telling sweden's power balance and media environment that it took two women with immigrant backgrounds to highlight the vital aspect of the issue but she also has a question that i'm going to direct to you rashid but as ask them terms of questions i'm interested to hear the panelists suggestions for solutions we can't

depend on volunteers to solve these pressing issues what are some of the things that the state can do in the coming year or two to decrease violence and crime in these areas and rashid in your answer of course keep in mind the elections that just happened. well the government and the authorities are actually responsible for the situation we're in and the conditions that people live in today . this illusion aren't any rocket science i mean like the educational system needs to be funded well so that our kids can get a good education and this should prevent the institutional racism in the job market and they should. fix up the apartments that many of these young people live in and the condition of the part of the condition of the apartments a very bad and also better for their health. they should arrange. an extra activities for young people who are interested in art and athlete or any kind of

activities that they want to and instead of doing all those things that we we are actually seeing they're cutting on the welfare you know in increasing the tax and so that the wealthy people can actually part pay for their and welfare while the poor people aren't being supported in the system so the solution is are not any kind of work in science in the kitchen you could actually do a lot of things but there need to be a political will and to make those changes we need to also organize within those poor areas in drink you be in the other place in sweden too to get together and demand our politicians to actually make some changes so as i think changes comes from within the people and not from the. i have to say this is not just about somali moms on the child there are so many groups in neighborhoods not just in the

obvious who actually saying we are going to please our south and make sure that our young people and we are safe let me in leave you with one more clip and this comes from the documentary and this is the president of the mothers night patrol listen to her house or sums up the effort that she has to put in to make sure her neighborhood are safe take a look. and i'm on bratton i'm going to be for the battle me. brother on born with you be the brother of me in a bomb throw them in a pool this about a proud day this marial folks go at kaamelott a shame to make in the tempest with. me. come easter bunny. ok deborah. we know what that means in t.v.

to save thousands of jews from nazi concentration camps and how these mediation skills put him at the vanguard in the quest for peace in the middle east. killing the count on al-jazeera. and monday put it world on. u.s. and british companies have announced the biggest discovery of natural gas in west africa but what to do with these untapped natural resources is already a source of heated debate nothing much has changed they still spend most of the days looking forward to for dry riverbed like this one five years on the syrians still feel battered or even those who managed to escape their country have been truly unable to escape the war. if inscribed to the wild west previously where the average person couldn't touch and tell if a post had been said all or if not why does this updated now if there have the kind

of support that it needs for we bring you the stories that are shaping the economic world we live in counting the cost on al-jazeera and this was different whether someone is going for some of this video read it doesn't matter we need three things it's how you approach an individual and as it is a certain way of doing it you can't just barge in and get a story and dying out. libya is the last so-called deescalation zone. it must not be transformed. to a bloodbath the un chief warns of a humanitarian disaster in syria's last rebel stronghold as it faces a government offensive.

hello i'm adrian from again this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up brazil's former president lula da silva drops out of the presidential race for nanda her dad will be the workers' party candidate in next month's vote. bracing for hurricane florence more than a million people ordered to move away from the u.s. east coast. and the u.s. china trade war dominates the agenda as leaders of southeast asian countries meet in vietnam. the u.n. secretary general is warning that a full scale military offensive in syria's province could unleash a humanitarian disaster on a scale not previously seen during the war and turning of the terrorists says that it lib could become a bloodbath the united nations security council has been meeting to discuss the issue meanwhile in geneva the u.n. special envoy to syria stuff on the debate to the steerer has been holding talks

with representatives from turkey russia and iran on diplomatic editor james pays reports now from u.n. headquarters in new york. these were the strongest comments yet by the secretary general on the situation in he warned that if there was an all out assault it would be the worst thing to happen in the syrian war which is already lost it more than seven years easily because the last so-called the escalation. it must not be transformed in to a bloodbath would an all out offensive on place which has such a large civilian population in your view amount to a war crime and i think what is important at the present moment is not to classify what was not yet kept and is to make sure that it doesn't happen which means it is important that those specially the city get into the us then the process find

a way in which it is possible to isolate terrorist groups and it is possible to create a situation in which civilians will not be the price paid to solve the problem of it the secretary general spoke just hours after another meeting of the un security council it's now discussed it lib three times in a week and yet there doesn't seem to be any movement in the positions the russians and their syrian allies say they need to go into a deliberate to fight terrorists but other countries say it will be a catastrophe if they do so let's hear now from al-jazeera stephanie decker who's in and taqiyya on the turkey syria border. it live is the place where people went in the end whether it was internally displaced civilians who were displaced from from city to city to village and ending up in italy or the rebel fighters the different opposition groups who didn't want to stay under government control under these so-called reconciliation deals and came with their families to this is why

you've seen the population swell so much so at the moment the displacement that we've seen as a part of this latest offensive and it is an escalation in the south of of the provinces sort of more country area open and a couple of families and people displaced they have gone to various places but mostly close to the border with turkey because that's where they feel safest we've been speaking to people who left and one man telling us that he didn't feel safe anywhere because people expect this offensive to move into the cities and into all areas because you know the rhetoric is that the entire province will be taken back by the government backed by russia the truth is there remain intensive diplomatic talks behind the scenes to try and resolve this somehow i think it's clear we will see some form of operation how much of that will be military how much of that will be negotiated remains to be seen but certainly those talks are proving to be very very complicated indeed. brazil's jailed former president louis exhaust ignacio

lula de silva has been replaced as the walkers party candidates for next month's presidential election the former mayor of san paolo fernando her dad will now represent the party lula was topping the opinion polls but has been barred from contesting because of a corruption conviction bus he's vowing to continue legal efforts to get on the ballot paper to see a new man reports now from could have teamed up. with the was it was choreographed for maximum political and emotional impact in front of the detention center with former president lula da silva is serving a twelve year sentence for corruption a defiant message from him to the brazilian people was read out by a member of his workers' party who was livid. i am asking the party that fernando had dug he had to know was mine lol running mate substitute me as a presidential candidate he'll be my representative in this battle if they think they have silenced my voice for social justice they are very mistaken now our name

is a dud. in actual fact it's the none to hide that paul would have to try to fill the shoes of brazil still most popular politician many flood back their tears as he was named. thinking well. we all share the same pain but not time to go home downtrodden it's time to go on to destry with our heads held high and when this election we win does a lection and more trouble there. but it's unclear how much of his popularity can be transferred to her dad former mayor who is now being investigated for electoral corruption allegedly committed in two thousand and twelve he denies the charges for the superstitious was jinxed from the onset his party's number on the ballot is thirteen i'm lucky or not.

in what's left of this campaign i can play. the lead actor but rather the director behind the scenes or in this case behind bars. while he still has appeals to his sentence pending time had run out to register an alternative candidate now dad has less than a month to convince the electorate that he can indeed carry on the legacy of the former metalworker remembered as the man who lifted more than thirty million brazilians from poverty and social exclusion. seeing human al-jazeera brazil. china's president xi jinping and his russian counterpart vladimir putin a valid to work together to ensure world peace and stability during a meeting in the russian city of lot of os talk for the east an economic forum the three day summit brings together the leaders of russia china japan and south korea as well as five thousand delegates from sixty countries let's go live now to.

chalons rory what's russia in particular looking to get out of this meeting. well on paper this economic forum is basically about boosting the developments of russia's far eastern region it's a sparsely populated part of the country russia has always had problems with developing it and it hopes really that this is a as it's a pacific facing part of the country it can't work together with other countries in the region to get investments into the far east but you know you don't need heads of state and leaders to come here for that sort of thing that could be done at lower level delegation essentially so there are of course geo political objectives to russia has here in inviting all of these leaders of lot of all stock now of course going to be put in the big ticket event here is what happened

yesterday this meeting with xi jinping of china and finally putin wants to present to the world a kind of united front with china to show that its relationship is increasing trade is increasing but to me putin was talking about one hundred billion dollars worth of trade with china this year and of course china he's taking parts for the first time really in russian military drills and that of course is a signal to the west that's russia and china moving close together and presenting something of an alliance of sorts not a full alliance but you know a partnership that can stand up to the west now each of the leaders of these regional nations attending the summit there and blood of all stock is coming with their own agenda laurie so why are they there. well yeah as you say they each come with their own objectives and so are they the

japanese prime minister has come here his twenty second meeting with vladimir putin they have territorial disputes that of been ongoing since the second world war they've been trying to get economic developments up and running as kind of confidence boosting measure for settling the kuril islands dispute but you know it's still waiting and we heard from both the leaders putin and shinzo are be a couple of days ago saying that yeah they were moving towards it but they're not there yet so that's something that is not stagnant suburban not exactly dynamic either then you know we have the south korean prime minister who's here of course with the north korean issue as the hot topic there now south korea closely allied to the united states but has not really gone along with the u.s. in sanctions against russia so it has economic interests that it wants to boost

with russia as well this in nine bridges proposal that it's been talking about not bridges literally but planks of the economy that it wants to develop like gas and rail networks and and all these kinds of things and china of course has its objectives as well which in the moments are reasonably close to the aligned with russia's as china is moving into a trade war with the united states it of course has an interest in boosting its cooperation and its strategic partnership with russia as i said in in my first answer to present something of a unified front against the west really many thanks indeed i was there as well as she was there in a breezy a lot of us talk. more than five point four million people have been issued storm warnings on the u.s. east coast as hurricane florence builds in the atlantic one of the half million have been ordered to leave their homes expected to be the worst storm in thirty
