thank you for having me we're almost 8 spy at parents our family but your story about how you became what inspires you comes directly from your dad even mentioning right at the top of the show he sent us some pictures this is your dad tell us about him and how that influenced when you went out growing up so. my father you know obviously was a political prisoner in libya his. whole form of position movement and we grew up in lexington kentucky almost a community of political dissidents and i just remember my father being very jovial very kind very loving even with my mother they were never too shy i would be affectionate towards one another you know different or maybe a stereotypical north african a middle east of the he was a poet he was a wordsmith he used to make up songs and freestyle around the house about anything about a food i don't like about being in parts and. a little rhyme or a little

a little fire that he told you as a kid to still in your head i mean i know and like libyan dialogue go ahead ok make a show i used to not eat for like food and. so he used to be like kind of. a little whore looking. forward with just saying basically like. all of the bread and leave in the fall of me just like anything that look at that joke by their job their job. and fool of course being father beans which i don't like him either so i can relate there so i want to share this with you we're talking about family this is new to who says his music has a special place in my heart i often listen to it when i need that dose to ease my soul and uplift us especially when thinking of the evils in society 8 years ago i was listening to his song at home and my now late father began dancing with his music delighted by my father's humor i big began recording the dancing it's

a memory and a video recording i am glad to have my father in other words even such a powerful song can have light effects which is a powerful quality an artist so thank you to new day for sharing that but. take us us into the realm of what this means to have it connected to family because as you mentioned your father was a poet but he was also a leading opposition activist and you spent the 1st few years of your life on the run. as beautiful to me but i would thank you for sharing that. i mean for us family was everything and ironically we were separated from our family we were exiled we had no communication but i grew up with the closest bonds that i think human beings can form with one another because this collective group for a while my family was bouncing around and they were. iraq. london and in those days assassinations and stuff were prevalent and they decided collectively to move to united states sic asylum and continue the organization over there so i grew up in

a community of people who only have each other and you know we struggle together we overcame poverty and deaths and consoled one another so for someone who didn't grow up with a lot of blood family around i know that i have way more human connections and the average person. you know to have been there is officially just shy which is your mom and dad and you at the front and the. your little brother is behind you you know we can actually see the love of the bonds there for somebody who is living in america and there was a moment for you where you actually had a chance to go back home to libya for the very 1st time and meet your family you can see that in a document you had to be released yet but it's called sing freedom i want to share just a moment of you eating with your family have a look. oh well but it has to.

do good. but not. i don't know about it but i'm sure that. that's a beautiful moment i don't feel at home. how does that influence how you do you know what your music. you know i learned a lot about myself during that trip and this actually that feeling has inspired my current concert series or storytelling series called the long way home and i realized growing up you know 1st libya was always home lexington always has a home a place in my heart but when i go back to visit the people that i grew up with aren't there in the moment it feels like a place i spent a lot of time in but if they're there it feels like home libya when i got there for the 1st time. it moved me and i had emotions that i couldn't articulate it really

felt like home but at the same time from being very transparent with myself and honest but you know as soon as i step off the plane and i'm not from you still stand so you won't call it as it does a close this is on all of us anybody in the studio if you go overseas so i started thinking maybe home is only a physical place maybe it's a mental place for me my home is my people and that's when i'm surrounded by people that i'm vulnerable with that i can be at peace with their understand my struggle and understand my journey so of course libya is a huge slice of that but i feel like i can step in a few different circles and really relate to that home feeling so ok and your home is your people which is a great segue for your next song never been heard before publicly him and his band will now play a new song medlock wrote as he gets settled here's a video comment from. a fan and a fellow a rapper. a guy so the thing about time he's so deep down to earth i met him one time of this event fun and i shook up with him another time at i heart he's such a personable guy and the thing about him is like you don't really feel like you're

meeting an artist you feel like you're meeting a person and growing up in a muslim community as a brother it also wraps amish just assume he's a great source of inspiration and hearing the story about his father in libya just really keeps you perseverance and always having the thought in your head about why you're going to become better which. was. he. was leaving was. sweep up in gaza. for a week or is it possible strong love love for. this community that what. we all enjoyed in the one state sex of the. circuit all

suplex too close to last 3 months would look like. no we didn't have much money mean last year we had a lack of love lol i'm bringing such little foolish. things called. white america wasn't for libya livin in somewhere as it is like in the maybe in my little habitat linked up on the cabbage patch my father had escaped to the savage exxon. to get the battleaxe painted in a country cadillac back to the right of families on the highway everything i would have to read some. blood but we lived together there were a lot of things that was to get through to bridge the gap of their lives no longer . just. was.

just going to make that. next to. be a journalist was to tell us that if she saw what happened. to write a speech. 3 years later.

i want to thank you so much you always talk about school k n can you give us some props them to us welcome to the streams what yeah some blessed always say when we get together avengers assemble is a superstar we've got dan alexis on the vocals we've got ice on the keys welcome amir too bad grace with the phone and trumpet we've got greg the guard on the base of castle coleman on the drums international superstar ronnie malley switching between the guitar and the road today thank you so much scott we have more for you in just a fake have come back to the task in our community i really love that people commenting live on you tube this is rahman he says. i'm so proud they're saying 5 year but i want to switch over to tweet because they're getting those into just some praise here mohamed says. meaningful work goes beyond his artistic lyrics can't take my

freedom which is a song that you will hear coming up with a key advocate presentation that spread through the world i remember my friends who aren't libyan told me that song made them more aware about the situation in libya so also being a person who spreading awareness there but this last comment i want to bring to you is via instagram because we got so many questions and comments when our community heard that was coming on the show so i'll start with this one here from someone who says what does freedom mean to you and i'm going to take that a little bit further because freedom in the sense of knowing that you weren't free to travel for a very long period of time talk to us about that. yeah i mean freedom of movement is one of the most basic human rights to you know. anybody and for me people wonder why i disappeared i saw comment on twitter like oh you know he was making music about libya and he kind of went back to his old life in the states and really i

faced a situation where i was on a no fly over the face and perpetual harassment detainment and surveillance during that time period i couldn't release any music i couldn't really be social and social media couldn't do anything and you know were part of a class action lawsuit to clear my name and it took about 3 and a half years for that to happen so during that time had to cancel tours i couldn't go overseas a kind of work i could. make a living. of grown very appreciative of being able to do that now currently can you describe because you were used to telling that story about not being on being on the no fly list but can you tell us one of those moments where you were taken off the plane and you interrogated because any of those stories are remarkable and also terrifying sure i mean you know when you say people just like honest sucks you couldn't travel when i fly yeah but we don't think of

how dehumanizing and degrading some of it is i mean i think the moment you're talking about was i had quite as at that time which is secondary security selecting status this designation was for was there for anybody deemed a potential threat to national security you've got to show up early to the airport maybe to print your boarding pass maybe when you get to security you have to see a supervisor they go through your phone if you have a notebook they take pictures at every page you know book. strenuous security interrogation and then after that when you get to the gate same thing so i passed all of the security measures i was flying from chicago to listen to a connection in detroit. i made it through all the security get on a plane to detroit a woman came and asked me for my id i gave it to her and then she said i'm sorry but we're going have to ask you to get off the flight mind you to suppose that my destination i was in the middle of nowhere and i said what's going on they couldn't give me a reason to refund anything and just the feeling of getting off the plane all sitting in the front and all of the faces behind me giving me a sheep as a grin like you know we got you sucker you know it was really humiliating and then

just to be left stranded and thankfully i know people in michigan but what if i did it you know it just felt really dehumanizing. even with all of the struggles that you've gone through to put out music and just to live your life as a human being there are people online who are saying along the way you've been helping other people and so i wanted to share some of those tweets this is malik who says k.m. was the 1st person to put on for me as an artist he took me on tour with him spread my post when i had no buzz and a 1000 percent is a driving factor into why i started and continue to make music today he goes on to say muslim hip hop is interesting nowadays what i appreciate pushit about him some music is that it wasn't hiller towards islam but it had clever specific references towards the faith and culture around it without separating out those who weren't in the community is that how you would describe your music you make of this thing so i think a different don't make islamic news i'm not the equivalent of

a gospel artist i'm a muslim who happens to also be an artist and for me it's important not to try to speak on behalf of any group of people whether muslims libya or anything i just exist on a spectrum of a part of the story i'm not the story and i just try to contribute in that fashion there are so many examples on your instagram account of you doing charity your parents is you doing concerts which is to help other people so your activism is a big deal let me just show our audience to speak to here and this is the piece tool you obviously feeling it's this this drive that you have to help of the people where does that come from. i think each of us have a role to play in society we're blessed with certain talents i had a rude awakening when the revolution 1st happened in libya for example i have a lot of friends who are going back home people who have never been there in their life but we were always raised. with the understanding that we're returning my father used to say. when we return we always thought like it's going to be

a year 2 years 3 years so for me it was really beautiful to see so many people who have never stepped foot in libya my age moved there and you had people helping with logistics helping with aid helping with communication towers and so here i am like oh i need to get over there to win them you know and i remember my family even saying my family over there like you know don't bring your butt on here what are you going to do you can be useless you know how to do this stuff stay over there raise awareness organize stuff organize media get people to tell our story share a story with the world and this was really early on before c.n.n. before anybody had made it in there. so that was kind of a humbling moment for me when i realized you know let me play my position and do the part that i can. without this scene from someone who says do you think libya was better off under of course you did lead in libya under gadhafi but if other day because we couldn't have been killed if we lived there you know i didn't live there because my you know my uncles who were assassinated in 1004 did i was named after

busy whose bodies were found in a freezer in 2001 and couldn't live there fairly and when i say that's a very important question a lot of people ask it but i always say it's the wrong question i ask because it creates a revisionist history so if we say for example you have a tyrant a slave master let's say let's say you had a slave master in america who oppress the people living with rape tortured would they be correct in revolting whatever happens if they make their decision whatever happens next does that negate the initial reason so maybe they overthrow the slave master and they can feed themselves and they prosper maybe they turn on each other if i whatever happens next there's a negate the initial thing so anytime we have a. leader who's a brutal leader if you take. north korea if you take let's say even hitler probably the worst leader i can think of in history in germany if germany had fallen apart after if there was a lot of proxy wars from different countries if there were no existing institutions

if italy was paying gains in germany to keep migrants from going and the country fell apart would be look back then and say electricity is on and off and there was good you can't really use that kind of revisionist history at the end of the day a lot of people were nothing really with gadhafi at all before the revolution and some people are mistaken in thinking that he wanted to unite africa the difference he wanted to rule africa which is ego said it is not based on the people who perpetuated a lot of wars in africa and sudan. at the end of the day oppression was just rampant so when you say at least they had safety under gadhafi it was safe in the sense that the hostage situation is safe which is if i take my legal hostage right now she's safe as long as she don't say nothing or movie she does what i do and i want to live there is a very i want to go to a slightly lighter moment but again inspired by what you post and i'm wondering if you'll superpower might be nice because if you look you know instagram account you

talk about how you love the x.-men how you're a fan of marvel i'm guessing you've probably got a couple of these figures at home and you love them what is it about the x.-men you cannot get to because i think that's such a great take away message so much of such a dark question. i literally learned how to exist as a muslim in america through watching x. men as a kid and i feel like the x.-men represent a lot of marginalized communities within the x.-men you have a group of people who are new it's through no fault of their own and because people don't understand that the general public they fear them and because they fear them they hate them and oppressive policies are put into power by the government. and as a reaction there are some. who fight against those oppressive policies also with violence and they're covered on t.v. and it gives the existing news a bad name but you have you have these characters who are struggling with who they

are why they're not accepted and you've got you know the struggle of the 2 main characters is a professor who thinks we should always be peaceful and we should always fight with love and understand we've got negredo who is. reading of the x.-men i will always think of them differently and thank you for bringing us superpower us here own the strain so am i will i keep calling you call it of course because that is your former stage name moses on you tube says i'm so proud of the mix of people on this stage that's what makes america great love you al jazeera so we're going to talk about that mix of people in with another performance by k. m. and his band this is can't take our freedom just before that here's a video comment from that bit fellow activists an artiste. i used to rap but i don't anymore and i just have 3 things to say oh boy i am number one as a rapper scot but the art and hip hop artist number 2 is a class act

a kid. the scars there ran up and down his back remembered thinking to look like a road map. thinking about the torture that he faces. and realizing. that this is a common story my friends parents all have some of the stories sung. the song is dedicated to all of a fallen soldier the father maybe i. saw that so i had to i said look at us in the city how many. there were united. in the darkest hour when the world has turned away and no one's black jim one is sky has turned to great and you have no options with your boys as the legal will be choice but a people is to stand up proudly in the face of the devil but in a way the bread we speak of loudly will be half of the kids in the street with no place to piss and. live in the new york big business a little bit like this a bit of getting the position i'm having visions of james i should say can we be at his post not going to be but if the people in egypt or tunisia do decide to face

what are we going to put in the front. page of the play. one of the states of america but you can't say the tough stuff we'll. look at the life. of our lives. are still there today. because the switch to taste a pretty tough place to plug enough place. to. the mcgraw many members. can post it in the message at home playing dead escape jail he dedicated his life to the cause but he never made the claim about to give you a look at what you're going to. get hung up on the consequences of the coming up with the i don't know why you guys keep pushing this. what if it is. such a goal but the regime just seems. like there's

a possible surprise little book coming up going here to. please a. lot. 80 percent of the visually impaired could be cured without access to treatment. and where there is a will there is a way of training state of the all tossed metal covering over 77 countries talbott everything is precious and the senate today able to read and to pakistan one learns passion provides flea treatment for over 1000000 patients and yet to cure revisited al-jazeera across the united states indigenous families are searching for their loved ones for relatives of people who go missing finding closure is often impossible people are meeting here to raise money for the search

efforts of the young woman advocates and family members have started to raise awareness about the high rates of violence that disproportionately impact indigenous communities most tribal police departments are understaffed and under resourced another factor is that tribes don't have jurisdiction over non-native americans for all crimes there but a lot of concerns that the federal agencies don't respond that they don't take these crimes seriously a lack of evidence is the main reason federal officials give for declining to prosecute crimes on reservations that should be the end of the discussion. there should be then a ok let's see what went wrong in this case why the is no evidence or why the evidence isn't good enough and make sure that doesn't happen again. where there is water there is life but finding it that australia's arid deserts it is a skilled few still possess they took us to raise a small wet spot in the snow in the closer and this was this is

a very important place that i've been telling us about for the last 5 days we planted out. and under orders against all odds an ageing population is possibly on its knowledge the rainmakers of the outback on the jersey of. anger on the streets and a warning of a firm response by south korea or japan or move it from a list of preferred trade partners. hello and welcome i'm giving a pal and you are watching others there live from doha also coming up north korea's foreign projectiles off its east coast but donald trump plays down pyongyang's

recent missile tests. dozens killed in 2 attacks in the yemeni port city of aden while duty fighters claim another hit on saudi arabia. mozambique's president signs a peace deal with the leader of a former rebel movement and years of hostility. we begin with growing anger and south korea to japan impose trading restrictions president moon j.n. is due to address the nation that follows to his decision to remove souls preferential status moon is threatening to take firm action now this comes amidst worsening relations between what one's close allies tensions have been escalating since south korea's supreme court last year ordered japanese firms to pay compensation for forced labor during world war $2.00 robert bright is in south

korea's capital seoul for us so rob tell us more about the reaction from the blue house. to tokyo's decision. there has been a swift response here dave year as expected the normally divided political parties of south korea seem to have spoken with one voice in response to this talking about their deep disappointment we have had a spokesperson from the presidential office talking about the south korean government's deep sense of regret and announcing that a special task force will be set up to try to deal with the fallout of this as we've gone on the as an emergency cabinet meeting has just got underway and as you mentioned they're moving jay in the president of south korea is expected to speak from there to the nation giving his 1st response to this this has been

expected but nonetheless it doesn't make it any easier for south korea to swallow this is regarded by many people as a real slight by japan it's basically japan saying we don't trust you to have exports of our high tech strategically sensitive components for your industry it's expected to have a knock on effect on some of the high tech manufacturing here in south korea that's after your restrictions were put in place last month which could in theory have a knock on effect on regional manufacturing and the belief here in south korea is despite the denials of japan it all goes back to the rao over japan's wartime record and in particular this this ruling by the supreme court of south korea against a number of japanese firms ordering them to pay compensation and seizing their assets which has raged japan and it shows no signs of letting up there and

are as you're speaking there we've been watching monday in speaking our addressing the cabinet will of course be touching base with you later in the program and in the coming hours to talk about what he's been saying thank you very much and fadi salami is in tokyo he explains the reasons behind japan's decision. the trade minister mr sicko today after the decision before just half an hour he had a press conference on the exhibit and that this is because japan has discovered some material some japanese material exported to. be everything north korea. he also explained this is not a good position and we also emphasize that now even though south korea is out of the white so-called white list but it is still in the same zone with asian countries with taiwan with india which are countries that have very good relationships with japan and at the same time they enjoy many trade very good trade

relations or election ships in the country so in a way he's trying to push away accusations that this kind of this is going to affect the global supply chain or going to affect. consumers all over the world so we think that basically what companies have to do you know even japanese companies the one before their backs to south korea now they have they have to go through the same procedure but. so many countries that this what if they just got to be done within 90 days. well saying the tensions in the region north korea's launch to new short range ballistic missiles from its east coast on friday is confirmed it'll be the 3rd such launch and just over a week earlier on thursday north korean state media releases these images of the leader kim jong un overseeing the test firing of a new walk at launch a system on wednesday so the latest launches could affect any future talks on

denuclearization. khan expressed deep regret that north korea's missile launches including ballistic missiles could negatively affect if it's to establish peace in the korean peninsula so we will keep a close eye on the religious movements and prepare. but predictably the u.s. president has downplayed the tests short range missiles we never made an agreement on that i have no problem we'll see what happens but these are short range missiles a very standard. and in other news donald trump has announced more tariffs on goods from china he says he's not happy with the progress of trade talks and wants a 10 percent tariff on the remaining $300000000000.00 worth of chinese imports alan fisher has the details from washington. the chinese u.s. trade talks have been going on for more than a year and the americans thought they had a deal a few months ago but see that the chinese suddenly changed their position and that

put everything into a state of flux and created the climate where more discussions were needed they also brought 25 percent tabs on $250000000000.00 worth of chinese imports into the united states no further tired of swer put on hold when the 2 leaders donald trump and the chinese president met at the g. 20 in japan but after the trade talks in shanghai over the last couple of days produced no real advancement donald trump said that he was going to impose far the tariffs on u.s. goods this time 10 percent on $300000000000.00 worth of imports speaking before he left for a rally in cincinnati he said he believes the chinese want a deal they're simply not moving fast enough now i think i think presidential somebody i like a lot i think he wants to make it but frankly is that going he said he was going to

be buying from our farmers that he said he was going to stop fenton all from coming into our country it's all coming out of there he didn't do that well is it thousands of people felt that all and this was 2 things to highlight 1st of all the united states believes that china is dragging its heels on making a deal for 2 reasons 1st of all that the longer this goes on then the u.s. economy me we can and make donald trump very keen to do a trade deal with china the other with the 2020 alexion on the horizon they wonder if a different president might be easier to negotiate with the other thing is that donald trump has proven that yet again at the rally in cincinnati in ohio he doesn't quite understand how tired of swag. seeing that china is pouring money into the u.s. economy that is not true it is businesses and people here in the united states who

end up paying the tab of the reserve port just last week the see the trade war with china which you remember donald trump said should be quick and easy to when it's costing the average american family of 4 somewhere in the region of $2000.00 a year. they were all in the united arab emirates will strengthen and expand their maritime border security cooperation a deal was signed in tehran by iran in an m.r.i. border police commanders it was the 1st such meeting between the 2 sides in 6 years and it follows a number of incidents in the gulf that that. meeting was practical with the aim of coordinating between iran and the us for border security agreements have been breached in this area fortunately we were in agreement on hunting security at the border between our 2 countries one of the important points agreed upon was holding continuous annual meetings between leaders of the border guards and of the 2

countries in tehran and abu dhabi meetings every 6 months in one of the border areas and in emergency situations communication via phone or fax and meeting at the border. who were. a major attack on the enemy back forces a military parade was targeted by a missile in aden now this comes as weeks after the u.a.e. started reducing its military presence in yemen stephanie decker reports. it started as a military parade. it ended in this the result of what he said was a missile striking agent the seat of the saudi backed government the campus a base for amorality trained and supported units and among those killed the senior military commander brigadier general monied seen here earlier in the week wearing the red bray but it wasn't the only message that he sent on thursday they also said they'd fired a long range missile at the port city of demand in saudi arabia hundreds of kilometers away a 1st in this saudi led 4 year long war 2 brazen attacks with

a very clear message they all lay years you know true to this military action by the hearse and i think that one of the 1st thing that they want you to do is that moment when the new reason actually during i think they wanted to show up when. they are losing support and their and allies there who are the all quite capable of actually hitting them and he didn't quite where they fell them was called to go where they fell but they had a stronghold in the saudi led war was launched to remove the iranian backed 2 things from yemen or to weaken them at least there seems to be no end in sight the latest attack is kind of a message that. the buck to voters is going to come under attack and that they are a legitimate target because the are working with the saudi about forces no political achievements on either side saudi's ally the u.a.e. is pulling back its presence and even held

a rare meeting with an iranian delegation on cheese day to discuss issues in the strait of hormuz it's a political stalemate in a conflict this killed thousands of civilians left tens of thousands of children starving and crippled what was already one of the world's poorest countries stephanie decker al-jazeera. the u.k.'s new prime minister boris johnson has suffered his 1st electoral defeat his governing conservative party lost a by election and weaken and wales that seat was taken by the pro european union liberal democrats reduces the prime minister's working majority in parliament to just one and that will now make it harder for johnson to push through his plans for a possible no deal breaker. and still ahead in our desire. more protesters are killed in sudan joining what's been called.
