you know what rights mean her neighbor or the right to own a slavery and i was taught in school that we were not defaming slavery we were just a fan name hours from the northern aggression the rest why. next we visit the statue of our common ancestor it's very painful to remember the legacy evidence right where the great man made it was second cousin or property me summer is painful it's painful just now cham is not perfect right now a queen i would i would take him down the defense of slavery was not something to be honored. gary flowers is a local radio host and custodian of black history in richmond he wants to show me a statue that he fought to get a wrecked in in twenty seventeen so this is mrs magdalene out walker.

born to an insulated mother maggie walker was the first black woman to charter a bank in the united states the st luke penny savings bank statues say to the community and say to the world this is someone whose fault to put on a on a literal pedestal that is a woman to be honored and that is a woman to be memorialized so that's what is so disheartening and despicable about the confederate statue because they fought for slavery sedition secession and racial segregation and so those are not honorable virtues for which to fight nor are they american there's no other country on the planet that honors and statuary the losers of a civil war itself with my ancestors who were burned be brutalized.

rate's confederates a confederate thinkers that is a constant symbol to me the confederate statue that we have now honoring a dishonorable man and a dishonorable cause and a dishonorable confederacy. statues mean something. there are others in richmond who are adamant the statue should remain the organization sons of confederate veterans has spent tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees to prevent the removal of statues in charlottesville and elsewhere. mr morehead just again and andrew morehead thank you to meet you yes or welcome to richmond and hollywood cemetery i'm at a told yeah i'm a relative of robert e. lee absolutely with the beard with the reddish beard you look more like you have stuart but that's actually. let's take a look at a few things and write. these are the dead from gettysburg

we visit the confederate section of the cemetery with the graves of around two thousand soldiers who died in gettysburg a battle lost by robert e. lee in one thousand nine hundred sixty three it was arguably the turning point in the war. heavy casualties. around fifty thousand soldiers from both sides died in that battle there are a lot of people that feel that those statues need to come down when you look at these monuments just on a pure abstract be they're beautiful works of art you know forks of war and then you've got the military brilliance of robert e. lee which is still studied by military theorist today the passion for this issue we is the sins of confederate ancestors they're our family we revere the fact that we feel in our opinion they fought for

a noble cause. to overthrow it overbearing federal government would you want anybody to talk badly about your family. just the notion of family you know brings up a lot of emotions in me but at the same time if there's a member of one's family that is doing something that you don't agree with you have a responsibility for them to work and we're responsible for the legacy of our ancestors as far as telling the truth as we see it robert e. lee didn't say i'm going to fight for slavery no what he said is i cannot term us a word against virginia so that tells you that the war was not about slavery there are some things we're not going to agree on i appreciate your time and given you are your point of view absolutely. edgers view that the civil war wasn't

primarily fought to preserve slavery has been debunked by the vast majority of scholars. i'm curious to find out why so many millions of virginians still believe it will obesity and. christy coleman is an expert on the american civil war and heads the museum in richmond specially devoted to the subject so christy here we are one hundred fifty years after the civil war it seems like a lot of the history and perspectives are still unsettled why is it still such a hot button to day. i think. part of the reason is that we've spent one hundred fifty years lying to each other about what this war was about. we spent one hundred fifty years lying and trying to reinforce the law and the truth is and it daughters of the confederacy and their historian of the organization of women by the name mildred rutherford makes it her business to frame the narrative

that must be in every school or textbook and if it's not there she tells them you must be checked it from your home and you must reject it from your school and that's exactly what they do so if you wonder why america has such a virgin view about this it was crafted that way the way i see it is that robert e. lee fought for slavery and that's what the civil war was about but. along the way and now i've heard an alternate opinion the reality is men women and children were bought and sold from their families by lee ok at arlington and in many other properties that he and he comes from a family that for generations has bought and sold human beings this way but i'm convinced that the weight of his choices. the death tolls and the casualties being so high i think weighed on his soul and i think that

that is why he was so in his last years was so adamant. to tell others don't put up statues don't relive this let's just let's just be you have the intensity that i see in his images with in your eyes a real ick ick i think that might be a family trait it's probably just beard maybe it's a very good idea to. see what people think of it but he's got. my own view is that the statue should be removed because it glorifies a shameful cause the fight to preserve slavery. over seven hundred thousand soldiers died in the american civil war the equivalent of seven million today. i

guess it gives me some small comfort to know that my ancestor also didn't want any monuments to this dark period in our history. it's time for me to face up to the sins of my ancestors. this church in peter's ville maryland was built by black people my ancestors and slaves. my grandmother used to bring me here as a child. i've come to see two of her friends i've known them since i was young lord have mercy or. may almighty god that mercy on us to get us out and we're going to everlasting life. clarice in a stellar both descendants of the people my family enslaved i want to know how they feel about them it's not something my family ever discussed. but. i feel uncomfortable about bringing up the subject of enslavement i don't want to

upset them. clearly some i'm wondering if you could tell me about the picture on this book here this is my mom. madeline. and i'm claire. and she was a nurse of this little girl and mom's mother used to work for the lees so your mom's mother was born in slave. yes. ochoa how'd see he was a slave my great grandfather of the lead property i feel kind of strange about that someone learn how how you feel about that i just live in the present time and i know that i can go anywhere i want to go and do anything i want to do and i don't have to bear down to nobody. see that's that's me

in this present time and that's where i am what i wanted to do was go on you know a journey that where i figure out what i can do to make sure that you know we don't start slipping backwards you should just try to make sure that you treat people right don't. don't harbor thinking about what your great great grandfather did so i don't have no hard feelings with you but president you want to do something. make sure you do something i don't know what you're going to do. it if you win the lottery you can give me a couple. i could do that. put other dead men.

to help you in in your endeavor if you really had it i hope i have because i think you've got a wonderful family. i feel humbled that a sterling priest don't hold any grudge against my ancestors for what there is and are but i want to honor their call to action. i need to know how much closer we are to racial equality than in my great grandfather's day. baltimore the largest city in maryland is just one hour away. it has a population of three million with a high proportion of black. twenty fifteen there were street protests in baltimore. triggered by the death of a twenty five year old black man. freddie gray spine was severed while in police custody no officer was ever convicted. i meet up with

kwame rose a young political activists who hit the headlines during the protest. while he was filmed in a well known t.v. host for failing to report the underlying race related issues fueling the honor asked i want you and oxys to get up almost six because tonight here warning about the book the border with syria the black right. think things are better they can. even better we have a white supremacist in office now may be just as bad as robert e. lee was and donald trump promotes and preys on the races ideologies that exist inside of american society you know we black people built this country from on our hands our blood sweat tears and we haven't got one ounce of compensation reparation or even acknowledgement of the contribution we did what is it that i should know about baltimore what people should know about baltimore is that we are majority

black population. sixty three percent black most of our elected officials are black . but yet the disparity between income between white families and black families is still one of the highest in america this is fells point it's a very white neighborhood. kwame wants to show me that even after racial segregation officially ended baltimore is still divided into rich white and poor black areas. eight here. you know drink here. actually there restaurant right there on opening day of the baseball season. i was actually called a nigger there. i come here knowing that me being here is. kind of a disruption to like the everyday whiteness i love doing and i love making people uncomfortable with my presence. you see the way the police patrol certain blocks so there's a neighborhood as a way to protect and you go up

a couple blocks up the street the police are there to enforce yeah you can you tell the difference you can tell the difference because the police here this is a space where drunken why people are allowed to have a good tom be drunk and it's written off up the street standing on a corner the police are there you know come out and disperse a crowd. it's kong right and there's nothing wrong with that the fact that this city is sixty three percent black and the amount of people represented in certain communities like this aren't right here. i'll take you to a part of baltimore. is pretty great grew up. in once across the slightest sensually you'll be able to tell the difference from where we just came from. you notice all the vacant businesses vacant homes. there are over thirty thousand vacant homes in baltimore the majority concentrated in black neighborhoods. the inequality in wealthier stark three times more black people than white live below the poverty

line and blacks are four times more likely to be unemployed. this is america. or just nation in the world right. this is going more homes this is where freddie great lived. so this is a neighborhood. flooded with poverty and adequate public housing lack of opportunity and jobs for a pretty pretty much of your born in this community you're stuck here. most kids that grow up in poverty. baltimore city don't have the chance to leave within five blocks of there. where they were born to really. what's the situation with the police and you can be someone like philander castille who had a weapon that was legally purchased and still killed even though he followed all the rules you can be afraid a great who ran away as so many examples of black people who did nothing wrong but

just were killed because they like ice cube said their skin was their center. in the united states black people are three times more likely than whites to be killed by the police. how do we make sure these people in your homes have the same access to quality a life that the people. would seems to me like before we can fix anything we have to acknowledge the truth of the situation more than acknowledgment has to be some type of compensation is of which surely the greatest nation on earth when the people who made the greatest contribution should have access to a quality of life for those who are oppressed and slave those. i've never really taken the idea of reparations seriously before that meeting with kwame has made me reconsider. i need to learn more about the inequalities that black people continue to experience i'm ready to face more uncomfortable truths.

he was malaysia's prime minister the nine me until his government was stronger now the scandals and allegations of corruption in an exclusive interview. speaks with. the latest news as it breaks. contradicts the information. i've been giving for the past two weeks with detailed coverage this whole area of mud and houses and it was completely washed away along with the people who were inside from around the government doesn't call this tension center but it's surrounded by barbed wire fences and it's exits are manned by armed guards. history has called it the great in the first episode conscription draws hundreds of thousands of our troops into or both sides of the conflict their story is rarely told but had a huge impact on the course of the war the world war was. on

an hour al-jazeera correspondent continues next. in baltimore maryland black people are three times more likely than white to be living in poverty. i want to know what that means for the people living. rick fontayne works for the city he grew up in a public housing project and has been helping disadvantaged youths in baltimore for over ten years. housing projects is primarily black ok out of you know thousands of people with maybe like ten white people that live in the projects. it's no resources you have to sit and you have a saw story it. someone you know they called you know. i support my house this jay i've missed

a tough one of us to tough the soldiers. some of the kids squeegee and they earn money that way but a lot of kids on they sell bottled waters and bottled drinks four dollars i mean all my bottles thank you thank you. keep with the legal hassles are right and you know i'm a legal mess sometimes i just pull kids off corners i mentor them i help them get. rick takes me to the parking lot where de'monte howard a youth he mentored was shot dead just two months before. a lot of the drugs and activity happens right here and it's this parking lot and this is where unfortunately a lot of the homicides are robberies to please the c.r.p. diesel baby that was the a monster his nickname his mother was struggling as a single mom three children by itself and he did the fastest thing to help her and that was get involved in drugs for here he was just good enough to help his mom and some guys from another neighborhood came here to rob them and ended up killing

a really good kid old man always is trying to do better we got him. in wilberforce college and the day we were supposed to present him with his certificate to go to college he was he was murdered right here really sorry to hear he says as the president. was a boss we've been a man i miss my home boy it's good to just rob lowe. would you like for this community all these kids to take them up the trips and sprays more stuff that's all you know right he sold. it was all of. those. were. a lot of. these kids feel like they're forced to do that to survive they're not doing it to be driving a mercedes in bentleys and things like that they're doing it because if i don't do this. people in these neighborhoods are not asking for anything but opportunity the

same playing field that the rest of america gets i don't. this is. what you need to see how you don so this is this is james to lose that and. you know i always see how you know you know them doing it how you know they've everybody feel so safe passage because they beat the streets and now here i am i one of them time. i'm so sorry for your loss thank you so much thank you could appreciate. there were three hundred forty three homicides in baltimore and twenty seventeen more than ninety percent of these people were black. chan wallace is a baltimore photographer who uses her craft to combat racial stereotyping so i use

photography as a form of activism my black lives matter and this what we are this is what we are outside of the gaze of whiteness. this guy right here i see black men all the time but i see how the world continues to perpetuate that these moments moments like this don't happen sometimes i photograph a black man and i have the photograph printed ready give it to them they. have the sound i went back to go give them a copy but you don't. weave and doors so much pain and have these moments where we didn't have anybody and it's you know but a lot of people tell me about those moments when i take their photograph and talk about our trauma talk about the injustice. what can i do what can white people do to kind of shift the way that they think or i think that for white people it starts with just simply caring about black people and envisioning more

equal society allies i don't think that an ally job is to go in and dictate and tell people what to do and give directions and listen and take notes. she has arranged a photo shoot in the area of baltimore where she grew up. she photographs her brother does many cousin quoting in front of. two generations of family still live on the street. does many quoting have served time in prison one in three black men in the u.s. it's a felony conviction. just. going to. what i was forced to come out of this is trying to. provide a way from a. zero sum a little brother but we were forced into this we don't have. the right to tell you . the forces on the street.

you know where their brains for a fifth of our kids is. i'm not even to put a. it was dark a bring my son. is community my family my whole family stuck in this community when you look back across the generations the advantages that white people have put in position for themselves and all black people in the end the disadvantaged as i might be was small and just as the white you should never bet up turned to me. i don't think so but that's just like him and then thank a ball as far as follow it always was this event are so full of black person pieces is very. true i get something. that we just want to force for some are the put the spotlight on us and give us a little bit of hope and then but i was determined what we will do with the help we don't weigh it out to some over so scott even scared to speak out because a surprise we portrayed him is as if he who would but we're not we so scarred that

we don't even want to speak out because we're afraid of the next person look at. you guys are going to take this with me you know trying to transfer the message. i mean i came here to listen and to learn you know and it seems like such a small thing. just to hear these stories. this is not small because quality he got emotional and even my brother got emotional because they have people listening you know people really fight it down matter we don't really talk about it because it happens so much it's not news it's not new . quality i know he didn't want to say that stuff for a long time he got kids he got family you know and they all live in poverty it is

the as still living in poverty is this is not the dream for us. i later discovered that the continuing existence of the rich white neighborhoods and poor black neighborhoods in baltimore is not accidental but a legacy of decades of deliberate racial discrimination. in the mid one nine hundred thirty s. the u.s. government was encouraging people to buy their own homes by offering federal loans however most black people were systematically refused mortgages. in addition government and financial institutions to up maps disqualifying some areas for subsidies redlined zones usually defined as neighborhoods where black people live. this deliberate denial of equal opportunities for black people to buy real estate is a major reason for the wealth gap between blacks and whites that exist today. my efforts to educate myself in america's hidden history lead me to two academics who

have spent years researching the racial wealth gap in america and the reasons for it hello i'm james. good nature person what does that inequality look like in the aftermath of the civil war blacks may have a little less than one person the american wealth. what's particularly striking and disturbing about that figure is that if we look at the comparable measure today it's about two percent so we have a wealth position for black americans today that in a relative is not very different from what it was at the end of slavery is there an unpaid debt that is. to black people in america yes the estimates can run as high as seventeen trillion dollars there was an opportunity to reverse the consequences of slavery instead for really enslaved folks never received the forty

acres and a mule that they were promised if that type of land reform it actually taken place it would have completely altered the trajectory of wealth inequality by race in the united states we got the destruction of black communities that had developed some measure of prosperity through white massacres that took place from the period of about eight hundred eighty through about nineteen forty. the midwestern community of greenwood in tulsa oklahoma was the most affluent black community in america with over three hundred black owned businesses known as black wall street. in main one nine hundred twenty one the whole thirty five block neighborhood was obliterated by a white mob triggered by a false rumor that a black man had raped a white girl homes businesses schools and churches were burned and bombed and over one hundred people died. while a massacre after another and you sort of rolled across the country all of these

riots where thousands of black people were killed if you study history you see that this is been a continuous. a continuous assault on black people yeah we we think there is a giant. and we think it needs to be met because i think it is a just response to america's history my family's. you know status and wealth has as has been has benefited from from their choice to enslave people the total number is staggering of whites who owned at least one black body you know it would have at least half at least half up the population white population i actually met recently the descent descendants of one of the people my family enslaved and found out that i had actually known this this woman

a stellar who's ninety years old now most of my life was her full name. her name is. sorry i'm blanking on her last name stella. it's telling you know that she's many years your senior and yet you refer to her by her first name right. there it is right there i mean i don't mean any disrespect. to check. well apparently no one else in their family has referred to her by any other in the affair but were direct about yeah yeah no you're absolutely right i think it probably made both of us uncomfortable you know free for you to call me out there. maybe never giving up maybe not to put it that it.

i had no idea that the wealth gap between whites and blacks is still so huge today . sandy and kirsten have convinced me that the case for reparations is overwhelming . i wonder if more white americans would agree with me if they knew how much of their wealth advantage is stalling and honor and. i mean houston texas to meet a group of people whose views i'd like to understand black separatists have. not been there the pick up on the rubble of the new black panther party has been described as a very racist organization whose leaders have encouraged violence against whites and police. yakin and been yeah one of its former leaders is now chairman of a new organization the people's new black panther party that claims to disavow hatred. is that right here. you you should not just

know one thing by going i grew up in virginia so yeah yeah i've shot count of the right yeah i don't own any myself right really and you know any gun for genuity one . for the panthers are planning a patrol in the southwest of the city where there have been some recent shootings you read a road map. we don't like the police come to town i would neighborhoods patrol and i would neighborhoods and so we should give an example of how we can be self determining. the police out here killing our you know people on the home and we were patrolling our own neighborhoods we wouldn't have these situations occur so. we have a message of separation we don't want to continue to live with white america hating boyd hasn't worked out we've tried everything we've worked we've served we. you know for equal rights and we continue to be in the same situation all right so this

is the group for tonight. by you both those that. you know do anything is going on without people who will want to call the police on one another stuff like that when we deal with young boys these days in the household will single mothers and things like that you have a number yeah yeah you're right my number down so that's what we do and i have a couple. but no community joe i do think it's a level of zero but it seems like when you come out here people are pretty interested in what you're doing we come out in the community and people see us it excites them and of course they go to police now yeah yeah we got a call in here so we are just there would always help but they never thought all we told would be not legal rights we're not going to be a piece of a right of the day all right all right. we're going to do a quick safety check. take this is open carry state laws don't have any felonies on your record or anything like that it's ok for you to open. there's legal. the huey p.

newton gun club is the defense arm of the party there's a lot of different ways to fight racial injustice why do you think you know armed patrols is is the way to go we had bustling black towns and we were very strong economically but what happened was we lacked a weapon and we're going to have to defend ourselves and this that's the bottom line self-defense what role do you think white people have been. in working towards more equality a lot of people who are afraid to say this a word reparations is a bad word is going to be associated with things like welfare and government handouts and stuff like that is not a government handout i think reparations as well overdue let's go ahead and move out. a few weeks ago maturity is called for compensation man surprised me but i'm starting to notice a pattern amongst a diverse range of activists. soft three students who have no let

up but. not as a white person i'm way out of my comfort zone but. i don't agree with their separatist message in armed patrols but i don't feel any hatred from black to throw don't look too strong so just to be clear those those views hate against whites and tyson anti-semitism you don't identify with that no no no we're different organization we want a different leadership we're not a hate group we don't hate anybody our way actions show we don't hate anybody so how do you feel about the idea of both want to live separate do you think will i totally out of my own will you think we can all get along. i hope that we can get along you know especially if white people are going to come around to the idea of reparations and you know trying to make a more fair and equal society because if this doesn't change just some point it's not. i'll be pretty it's going good bad to

a point where we begin to slump want to race wars when we end up breaking out and thus the point i was going to get to now is give me hope because nothing is change and hopefully you see that i'm coming from a good place and i just want what's best for my children and my grandchildren as common after me well look i'm and i think there's a couple things that we don't agree on but i think upstart understand where you're coming from or how we both learned some things always try to take things away from a conversation. that protests. not far from houston is where the last american slaves were finally freed in eight hundred sixty five. it's depressing to realize that after one hundred fifty years some black people feel so let down that they think separation is their only option . making a difference seems almost impossible. but i'm determined to do something and. pay the need. for it it gives me more. than

a little thank you thanks for coming to need invites me to the national gathering of coming to the table where this year's theme is reparations. over the next two days i attend several discussions on what white people can do to help. these range from scholarship funds for african-americans. to tips on how to talk to other white people about racial inequality. the conference gives me a lot of good ideas to take away. there's someone from the coming to the table gathering that i want to meet again. i need to apologize for something thoughtless i said earlier i meet up with stephen at a historic house in harrisonburg virginia stevens trying to raise the funds to save it of the hands that constructed his hall or hands the will formally held in

bondage. we were talking and you said you know that's what it's like being a black man in virginia and i said i could imagine. and mediately felt pretty foolish for saying that you know i don't think you could even imagine what it's like to be a black man in the state of virginia i have to be mindful of every single thing that i say every single place that i go every single thing that i do my body language my you know your mannerisms my home i mean you know it's it's not lost upon me that i have never experienced with a truly means to be free black people in the united states of america or anywhere near free. when you consider. that with one force more. that with one. violation of the fragility of the feelings of white people are very lives could be taken away from us and ended

in an instant what else can you know a white person like me do i want you to see on that despite the best efforts of your ancestors. despite. on the most cunning in conniving and destructive of plots implants that were devised by your ancestors my ancestors overcame what i'm saying as i'm hoping that you can recognize then that we are equal. because there was a time not that long ago but where your people didn't see mine that way i think it's up to people such as yourself and myself us together to try to do whatever is necessary to make sure we don't perpetuate these lies. would you agree absolutely cannot agree more.

could you please. on the last night of the national gathering do need to ask me to join her at the james river in richmond to watch the same trail as her enslaved ancestors. lived in the south of. us to. feel like the folk lore society are staging a reenactment specially for coming to the table dolly by. africans captured traded dragged from their motherland and the odor after now i'm ten weeks at sea so if it this concealed cargo disembarked only at night to the crack of the whip in the shadows and same.

thing. ha. ha's shows. oh my movie what should. you. know math. no now let's go. down. for over an hour i walk the same dirt path that hundreds of thousands of the slave driver cans were forced to follow. as i think about the magnitude of their suffering and sacrifice i feel a deep in sense of shame and sorrow that their descendents have never received a formal apology or a penny in compensation from the u.s. government.

so that was really intense. it was absolutely humbling. and i just kept thinking about everything that had been taken away from the people that arrived on the shores. and how there's no way that that could ever be given back to them. i decided to join the fight for reparations. not just because of my ancestors. but because morally it's the right thing to do. all of us must take responsibility for repaying the vast debt owed to black people so that future generations can finally have an equal share of the opportunities and wealth of this nation it works. a journey of personal discovery feel more american here and then more air and b.s. algis there is a mirror i would your mara highlights the struggles and resourcefulness of high

compromise our values. a mix of emotion and grief protest and politics recalling a man and a journalist killed apparently for speaking his mind during the whole al-jazeera central london well let's talk to her who is in istanbul for us outside the saudi consulate there were of course g.m. went missing a second and was then killed so if we can just pick up and we'll ask you more about the details coming out of istanbul but suppose this call from jamal khashoggi his fiance that basically she wants her fiance is a body any news on that when it comes to the investigation and searches in the various areas in istanbul. where the authorities are still searching the vest to go she is still under way and this has become somehow a crucial element of the whole investigation and this explains the frustrate of the

turkish authorities over the visit of the top saudi prosecutor thought that he would be here in istanbul for clear answers as what happened to the body of. the who gave the order for the killing. and also testimonies from the eighteen suspects who were detained in saudi arabia and they didn't get any answers from the prosecutor this explains why we got that statement from the turkish government saying that while the. praise the fact that the prosecutor has admitted that this was a premeditated. killing but therefore they don't want any waste of time of this crucial moment they want some clear swift answers from the saudi government for them to be able to build strong evidence and also a strong case there would be the way for final findings that could die the people

responsible for the killing or. i'm a hash of i mean the turks may well want those clear answers but they're obviously not getting them could could we be looking at a bit of a stalemate in this investigation. in a way or another yes that's definitely the case now the the it could lead to further escalation in the rhetoric and further straining relations between saudi arabia and turkey during the lot the last few days what we've seen particularly with the with that with the leaks there was a push by the. turkish government to put more pressure on the saudi government and it paid off because we've seen the saudis changing their own narrative from an absolute denial to admitting that this was premeditated killing but then the turkish i think government thought that they would give diplomacy a chance waiting for the saudi prosecutor. to come forward and make the

first step next step forward when it comes to the questions that the turkish government wanted some answers to but then when they didn't get any currency from the saudi government i think we're likely to see further strained relations between the two countries which could delay the whole investigation. by with the latest there from istanbul hashan thinking. and has blown herself up in central tunis killing herself and wounding nine people eight policemen are among the injured the two nisan interior ministry has described it as a terrorist explosion the country has been under a state of emergency since two thousand and fifteen when dozens of people were killed in a series of attacks claimed by well to president condemn the attack. i regret to say that security personnel are always paying the heavy toll paying it

in blood i am sure officials will identify the causes and consequences such attacks undermine the state its authority and state we thought we had driven terrorism out of our cities in two decades yet it is now in the heart of the capital city. indonesian search and rescue team say there is no sign of survivors after a plane plunged into the sea carrying one hundred eighty nine people on board the boeing seven three seven zero and by the low cost airline lion air was headed from the capital jakarta to the western city of none but it crashed as the java sea just minutes after taking off when have reports. the paintwork confirmed the first pieces of debris recovered from the crash site were from lion air flight six one zero it's believed to have crashed around thirty five kilometers off the coast just minutes after takeoff from jakarta there were early signs that the chances of finding survivors would be slim and. we have found flights from the
