extensive coverage of the protests in the u.s. seoul so coming up the heartbreak is still drawing sudanese father whose son was killed a year ago in an attack on a pro-democracy city in the us taking it to the streets we'll look at one on one man's mission to increase testing in u.s. communities hit hardest by the corner virus. the end thank you very much for joining us curfews remain in place in many of america's biggest cities after another night of anger people have defied the orders to protest against racism and police brutality after the death of george floored but they've been fewer reports of looting and violence now one of the more stunning images from the past few hours was a sight of thousands of people marching on to a busy road in the city of portland in oregon they lay face down on burnside bridge with their hands behind their backs for 9 minutes in remember and so florey it's in

new york city police began making arrests soon after its curfew came into effect thousands of people pouring onto the city's streets in the early evening mayor bill de blasio has refused to bring in the national guard saying it will only worsen the tension in minnesota where george floyd died in police custody just over a week ago the mother of his daughter has held an emotional news conference. roxy washington says he was a good man and father john hendren reports from minneapolis. a week after george floyd's death little spark that left american cities in flames rocsi washington is demanding justice in the business. he would have of. well graduate he will never walk down. echoing the crowd of protesters at the sight of george

floyd's death floyd's family wants all 4 officers involved in his detention to be charged with a crime and not pay it. infamy of yours because they want justice for the hill. just his for him because he was the norm in about it sure. and this is the group. at the state capitol in st paul were thousands of protesters met to keep the pressure on their government. minnesota's governor says he wants justice and he's launched a discrimination probe into the minneapolis police department to get the investigation will review in p.d.f. policies procedures and practices over the last 10 years to determine if the department is utilized to semi practices towards people of color the governor says

he wants the protestors to know their heard what we keep hearing from protesters on the street they don't trust the police they want the police to stop discriminating against african-americans and even black professionals tell us what happened to george floyd here. one of them i need to change the system in the more recent say they experienced discrimination on a daily basis but they worry most about their children encountering police i worry a lot. of their young adult. they're trying to stay in positive and be productive in their every day my. law abiding citizen. but unfortunately we. can't change your complection or you're in the city. you don't always get an opportunity it's a theme heard over and over at the site known as the george floyd memorial they come

not just for george floor but for those who might come next. john hendren minneapolis. and i'll just areas she has more from washington d.c. where protests have been considerably comma compared to previous nights. the big difference for tuesday's protest outside the white house was the construction of this 8 foot fence and it really has had a calming influence it has to be said on the nature of the protests because it's almost as if they are the combat troops effectively who are lined up against the protesters being kept at a safe distance from us there's a lot of the provocations that we were saying on previous days where every now and then they would lash out without warning with pepper spray flash bang grenades and so on and today always so every now that arrives at the extra half an hour before the curfew they did come forward and pepper spray through the fence rather unless they do come forward every now and then but i tried to stay stay where they are

they do nothing and retreat once more that's led to the ability of the protesters to peacefully protest without provocation the provocation are seen over previous evenings it there is that sense of perhaps and i quote librium has been found and now i have a how the photo opportunity of the day before a certain number of protesters will be allowed to peacefully protest have a vigil calling for justice following the death of george floyd there's one other interesting thing here that this is the toilet. that was graffitied we had an interview from august by the defense secretary and he was also why did you go to st john's church which is just opposite us like we take a look at that so why did you go to john says why did you accompany donald trump and he said oh i didn't know we were going to i just said i was going to inspect the toilet and. it's interesting to see the defense secretary distance himself the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff who is in his combat fatigues is also just absolved from the want to sit on the square which is so controversial in the outside world at least we understand in the white house i think it was

a huge public relations coup i'm of the success in addition this time last night here in d.c. we were having military helicopters. flying just above the rooftops trying to scare away. a classic counterinsurgency. tactics being used on monday night things are much calmer. and in a sign journalist has been a standoff between police and protesters is easy. to demonstrate has sat on ground and refused to move despite violating the city's curfew many have now been arrested al-jazeera as rob reynolds is innocent and is where the overnight curfew is ongoing. the curfew here in los angeles has been in effect for several hours and at this location there are

a number perhaps 100 or more protesters who have now been detained by los angeles police if i'll step out of the way and you can see that people are waiting in line some are seated each one is sort of being guarded by a police officer they are. waiting to be transported to jail where they will be charged with a misdemeanor offense breaking curfew it's not a serious offense but it is something that is useful from the perspective of the police in order to clear people off the streets a few moments ago people here were chanting they were chanting black lives matter here they were chanting say is name george floyd they were chanting no justice no peace and they were speaking obviously making a political statement so you have here the determination of the police department

on the one hand to maintain order clear the streets enforce the curfew and on the other hand the equally strong determination of these protesters to make their statement make their political statement by deliberately breaking the law in an act of civil disobedience. now the calls for justice for george freud were also heard in argentina people marched through the center of the capitol when osiris to show their solidarity with the protests in the united states untie racism demonstrations have also been held in brazil where around half the population is black or mixed race the protesters blame president jalal so narrow for the growing discrimination there are reports. dozens of protesters chanted stop killing us on the streets of rio. even the spread of call with 1000 in the country did not prevent them from demanding an end to police brutality in south america's largest

nation. we are here today because we want to leave we are here today because we are tired of this gentle sidle state we're here to say no more here. the names of those killed in police operations were read out loud most of them have one thing in common they are black and poor. police said the protesters were throwing stones so they confronted them with tear gas and non-lethal force 2 weeks ago a 14 year old teenager was killed by police during a raid on a father in the autopsy report shows that the boy was shot in the back by a rifle while playing with his cousins in his room. in 2019 over 1500 people were killed in police related incidents a surge of hundreds in a state with a long history of police brutality and the political leadership including president himself who vowed to dig graves to stop crime this year already over 600 people

have been killed but increased. because there is an increase in crime or because now there isn't just from the president was the narrow. i had a problem controlling the police protocol sonora but at least there was a discourse at least they were trying to address a problem before both the military police try to reduce the amount of people killed but when he came to power along with the current governor of rio de janeiro that changed they say there is no problem and they dare tell the police to kill more as if that's going to solve rio's crime problem human rights groups also say that the pace of killings is astounding. if the us police were killing people at the same rate as those killed in rio you would have in the us at least $36000.00 deaths per year. people have not only been protesting in the religion aid office but in other

cities as well. they see racism is already part of brazil's reality and precedential you also narrow is making the situation even worse i have all. the corona virus pandemic now and there's been more than a 1000000 cases of covered 1000 across latin america brazil peru and chile have been the worse heads and now many countries are taking a 2nd look at their official death toll which health experts say have been under reported a lot america tennesseean human report some santiago. in chile is capital soldiers and armored cars card the trucks while boxes of food and cleaning products are delivered directly to people's homes to ensure they can remain indoors but until you have been there 2 of us our home lost our jobs 2 months ago so this is a big help it's the 1st we've received from the government since the pandemic

started after $76.00 days of partial or total lockdown hospitals are close to collapsing called 1000 infections and deaths keep rising in part because it's been impossible to enforce confinement this fall vox's are certainly welcome but they're not enough to pay for the rent or even cooking gas and other. government emergency aid has been slow in coming and so no amount of pleading or even threats of fines has been enough to keep many people at home and for not going out to work especially in the local neighborhoods like this one where the infection rate is highest. in neighboring peru nearly 3 months of lockdown hasn't prevented an explosion of infections the country already has the highest death toll in south america after brazil and i have our own american hero marriage i've lost 2 brothers and a month but i'm glad they're not suffering any more because of the pain may head.

now a new report that compares to to stickle data over the last 3 years suggests that the number of cold related deaths in april in may could in fact be more than 17003 and a half times higher than the health ministry figures i asked the man who published the study how this was possible. you know if it medical so many people who died at home or on the way to the hospital or even at the door of the hospitals which have collapsed were not counted others had respond retore failure is the cause of death even though this was caused by coronavirus. regardless of how the death toll is tallied that numerical is now the epicenter of the pandemic and yet it's not all gloom. in havana a young opera singer lifts the spirits of health workers and neighbors alike. while thousands of kilometers away chileans applaud the arrival of

the next couple of days have been struggling to get his double figures in moscow for example we get up to 14 celsius ok it's going to be wet and windy at times but at least those temperatures are on the rise to show us a little bit more widespread across a good part of europe as we go on through wednesday as you can see in the cotton all the way and started to set in london 19 celsius on wednesday if you're lucky you'll touch 40 stiffening breeze makes its way across the northwest of you have quite a bit of the raw and that's no bad thing we've had a drought in belgium recently germany and poland have been struggling with the rainfall will see some heavy rainfall over the alps all night is so that always brings with it and avalanche risk a few showers making the mountain more than parts of italy the southern areas if you have that's where we're going to see the best of the sunshine but there's always a chance of the old shallow not too many showers across northern parts of africa warm sunshine coming in through through here we will see further showers around the gulf of guinea and nothing that way further north with lots of wet weather for west

africa. assessments tourism but the income stream is dead in the water what's been the result in perching quite significantly informed opinions there has been a very aggressive political rhetoric that has become very normal and it really is cited in depth analysis of the day's global headlines it's time for new policy and say countries like not all be disintegrating but he read to me this is the leading to over all continues inside story on al-jazeera.

a subdued gathering hours after a night of widespread looting the people doing they just taking a great opportunity to spread. our voices to stop killing people and using them for a chaotic. if we can is a passed along and. our goal is to grow. in washington d.c. a new crowd control fences erected near the white house and some newcomers to the demonstration drawn in anger at the brutal dispersal of crowds last evening last night what i saw on the news right there was all the other forces on the on the on the peaceful protesters it was his master i was drawing there watching around. the world a world where a group. of church media gathered on the spot outside st john's church for the president to pose for the cameras with

a bible in his hand and good at what they saw as his use of the church and the bible as props was suppressed and. we found the misuse of the bible and the church as a photo opportunity the floorboard the stripes similar sentiments expressed by presidential candidate joe biden the president from the doorstep of the people's house the white house using tear gas 'd and flash grenades learned to stage a photo op. a photo on one of the most historic churches in the country or at least in washington d.c. we can be forgiven for believing the president's more interested in power then in principle despite the criticism president trump accompanied by his wife paid a visit to another religious shrine laying a ceremonial wreath to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of the catholic pope john paul the 2nd the catholic archbishop of washington released

a statement describing the president's visit as that pulling and reprehensible. back at the white house a neutron to skirt the demonstration all clearly not just about police brutality. of the. soft of the curfew some are still of the monch on this night in this part of the city the police stay away mike hanna al jazeera washington. and the protest movement in the u.s. is seeing solidarity online a montage of black images have been posted on social media sites and of the hash tag blackout tuesday the concepts spread from the music industry with some major companies pledging to suspend business now people in israel are also showing solidarity with the black lies matter movement in tel aviv 100 showed up at the u.s. embassies branch office some said they wanted to end race or racial discrimination

in their country allison ians have joined in the movement as well and have drawn attention to what they say is the aggression of israeli forces protesters in the occupied west bank gathered outside the church of nativity lighting candles for george floyd and iyad are high like an artistic palestinian man who was killed by israeli police on saturday. we came to show our alliance with the oppressed in the world against injustice against the u.s. administration that oppresses black people against the israeli occupation that approaches the palestinian people outrageous also spread to the netherlands where is socially distance protests was held against the killing of george floyd people gathered in the hague kneeling as a call for an end to racial discrimination. you know the only one.

of the. was the. was of the. now canada's prime minister justin trudeau has struggled to respond when asked about president trump's handling of the protests take a look i like to ask you what you think about that and if you don't want to comment what message do you think you're sending. we all watch in horror and consternation what's going on in the united states it is a time to pull people together. but it is a time to listen is

a time to learn what injustices continue despite progress over years and decades moving on and the coronaviruses disproportionately killing african-americans to make matters worse testing for the virus is scarce in poor largely minority neighborhoods but one doctor in new jersey is addressing that issue given elizondo went to meet him. trying to stop the spread of corona virus not from a hospital but from the back of a van it's dr alexander salerno who is offering mobile testing for 1000 infections as well as antibodies they can medically salerno when a family health clinic for 30 years was dismayed by the inaction of authorities and the near non-existent testing in poor communities hit hardest by the by. he took matters into his own hands and spent more than $40000.00 to set up

a pop up clinic his team tests more than $100.00 people a day in economically depressed neighborhoods of new jersey what initially gave me the idea it was really ice cream trucks and food bending trucks because you know in urban areas. trucks are very much part of summer time and so we came up with the idea of let's do a mobile cobra testing ban. not everyone could get to a doctor's office and they really shouldn't be going to emergency rooms and hospitals for testing because that really created a major backlog so it's kind of like bring the testing to the people this is a high rise apartment of senior housing everybody that lives here is elderly and particularly vulnerable to cope at 19 many don't have the ability to go very far to get tested and now they don't have to they just walk out their front door to doctor salerno. get their tests done and the results come back within 48 hours and he

turns nobody away even if they can't afford to pay burnous holmes was trying to get tested way back in march but the site was an hour away in a wealthy community and he could never get an appointment and i'm going to want to have much they 1st sight was in bergen county and we can and we couldn't go over there to get tested. we typically move closer to the moon. proving all it takes to get tests for people who needed the most is a place to park the rules are the al-jazeera east orange new jersey. the c.e.o. of cattle i always says it may take a few years before the airline can resume flights to all destinations. says social distancing measures have cost the industry and will result in increased ticket prices nobody can say the future what that will happen i know that
