al jazeera. and. this is al-jazeera. i live there i'm nick lalich this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes minneapolis bans police child homes nationwide protests continue for george floyd's day. hopefully george is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for a country don't trump invokes george floyd is he celebrates improving job numbers despite unemployment among african-americans worsening.

anger in mexico over the death of a man in police custody for allegedly breaking coronavirus restrictions 3 officers have been arrested. the forces loyal to libya's u.n. recognized government celebrate the collapse of been found after this a 14 month offensive to take the capital. and thousands protest in mali's capital demanding the resignation of the president. and a growing number of u.s. police departments are enforcing changes to the tactics in the wake of george floyd's death and the city of minneapolis where he was killed is banning police chokeholds and will require officers who see colleagues using improper force to step in and stop them as well as banning police holds new york state plans to classified fulls race based schools to emergency services as

a hate crime and california will stop training its officers to use the type of restraint that killed george floyd. across this country we train techniques on strangleholds that put people's lives a risk now we can argue that these are used as exceptions but at the end of the day the carotid hold that literally is designed to stop people's blood from flowing into their brain that has no place any longer than 21st century practices and policing well as scrutiny grows ever the tactics used by police to officers filmed pushing over an elderly man in the city of buffalo have been suspended while the government new york has condemned the action 57 officers resign from the police squad charged with crowd control and they say they colleagues were simply executing orders let's hear brian has this report. at

a time when police misconduct is in the spotlight. this video has gone viral a 75 year old man left on the ground after officers appeared to shove him police in buffalo initially said he tripped and fall and then changed their statement adding that 2 officers had been suspended so. 13 year gas or pepper spray. and some cases of live ammunition in violation of international standards so the use of force but this is continuing and i'll go way. over the past 40 years government funding for the police has tripled to more than $100000000000.00 police departments have also been reinforced with excess equipment from the u.s. military all as crime rates have dropped. the days of george floyd sparked outrage and condemnation across the u.s. and in many other countries process to say they've had enough of decades of racism

and repression and totality by those who were supposed to protect and serve we're sorry we grieve and this is an injustice that should never happen again. but despite the mostly peaceful protests. critics say there's plenty of evidence the injustice is continuing with several confrontations since floyd's death now under investigation. by the. peaceful protesters have been tear gassed in iowa and los angeles national guard who look like they're dressed for the battlefield have patrolled a stretch of hollywood boulevard normally frequented by tourists and celebrities and police wayne besen said people who witnesses say was simply standing with their hands up. protesters were arrested in new york city on wednesday as police tried to

enforce a curfew. the next day the city's mayor bill de blasio was booed at a memorial service to george floyd after he tried to defend the police action. president donald trump who accused of weaponize in his response to the protests by threatening to send in the military if demonstrations on brought under control the streets outside the white house before cleared before troops photo op on monday several protesters and the american civil liberties union a sowing the police over what happened while the vast majority of police officers do their job bravely and righteously it is undeniable that many african-americans lacked confidence in our american criminal justice system this must change not just. hopes that change will come perhaps in this little girl's life time brian al-jazeera. love to curse and

we use this time to buy from sue new york kristen the. policy that we're seeing in greece the problem is happening remarkably quickly and. yeah the demonstrations have been going on nationwide just over a week just a week here in new york and today the governor of new york andrew cuomo unveiled his police reform proposal calling it the save their name bill you see a lot of these demonstrations the practice of repeating the names of people who have died unnecessarily at the hands of police the most recent of course being george floyd so in that honor and in that tradition he called it the say their name dell and it takes a number of steps that demonstrators have been calling for including banning chokeholds more transparency with police records if they have a history of misconduct that should be made public demonstrators say this would do that criminalizing 911 calls that are falsely based on race is another

aspect of this and also appointing the state attorney general to investigate police killings police murders that is something that. will be respected by the demonstrators because the concern is that normally these are cases that are prosecuted by local district attorneys the very same people that these police work with on a daily basis to prosecute crimes so some say that's a conflict of interest that there's a little incentive for these d.a.'s to prosecute these police officers when their cues of misconduct they're too chummy and so on this would eliminate that that appearance or that situation one thing that this bill didn't include is something that demonstrators are calling for the defunding of police departments here in new york city the mare is getting a lot of questions about cutting the budget and. some have called on him to cut the police department budget by a 1000000000 dollars this is

a massive police department 36000 uniformed officers and a 6000000000 dollars budget they're calling for a 1000000000 dollars cut to put that money into funding the community and things that would benefit the community the mayor has been very resistant to that the governor did not include that in his proposal i should also point out that the governor's proposal still needs to be voted on by state lawmakers and he's calling on them to do that as soon as next week right and meanwhile this incident in buffalo when elderly man was pushed over and we have 57 officers resigning from the police would charge with crowd control despite the governor saying that it was a very bad thing what happened. yeah absolutely they all resigned quote in disgust according to their union rep days who said that they were simply executing orders of course you see in the video that the man falls and one police officer stops and looks like he's about to help him and he's pushed along by

the other officers and so forth but this is the line that leaders in the state and around the country are dealing with right now on the one hand they need the police departments to enforce the law and order their their employees but there's this incredible demand from the public for justice for reform and so on. but pushback from officers who say we have a really tough job to do we're put in these tough situations and most of us are doing good work and being blamed for what others do it's just a really tough situation for the politicians right now but protesters continue to take to the streets they're doing it again here in new york today they've been doing it all around the country and they showed no signs of letting up so clearly the governor of new york and others trying to do something to address the concerns that are being raised through our government thanks very much chris and to be there in new york and let's hear now from. from the civil rights group the n

w c p and he told my colleague through no brigade that he welcomed the plan by the turtles. it's a step in the right direction and it's what we've been calling for. now we just need at a federal level to where we're banning chokeholds and we are taking into account the real lived experiences of african-american blacks in this country i'm excited to hear that but we have a long way to go and it's a step in the right direction how the last 10 days really dramatically shaped and changed the way americans view race in our country and now that we have video footage camera footage people are starting to wake up and take no but this is a very real live experience of so many people in this country especially african-americans police brutality and race. just and that has put in place barriers for black people to move upward to move mobley upward in this country well memorials for george floyd and anti police demonstrations are continuing across the united states in washington d.c.

many meriel bowzer requested the words black lives matter be painted as a giant mirror along the street that leads up to lafayette square to the white house is intended to send a message that the city stands with the protest movement comes days after president trump ordered the u.s. park police and national guard troops to forcefully remove demonstrators who were peacefully protesting outside the white house she has returned he has been out with protests in washington for a d.j. was playing in the atmosphere markedly different to the past few days. it's quite the assertion of municipal authority isn't it is the white house isn't it now infamous church of syndrome directly opposite. donald trump brandished that bible and now it's right in front this is been named a black lives amount to place and as you said we have these in the almost latin spelling that out up the street in front of the white house it is however a symbolic ascension of authority as we discovered sir clearly this week in the end

d.c. is the states we have a mess but we don't have a government we don't have any meaningful representation in congress and i mean basically the president can do pretty much what he wants around. the meadow of a county or things like this symbolic or symbolic protest is going down terribly well however. is the reaction to block lives not a d.c. . this is a perfect this is performative and the destruction from a madhouse is active counter organizing to. decrease the police budgets and invest in the community not lives mass it means defund the police. lock lives mathura fighting it isn't donald trump necessarily isn't the perfect drool forces its municipal police forces its its municipal power who then shields police forces from prosecution and transparency well giving them ever more money in fact man bows out of d.c.

in the latest budget proposal is praising yet another increase off the many already in the hall of $1000000.00 for the local police force to help them to do it militarize and so on while taking money out of social housing and social programs and the alderman from this is this is the wrong way round if you invest in your communities then you don't need a police force on the streets to police the inequality that results from not investing for the austerity. the president on trump is claiming the u.s. economy is bouncing back from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic after an unexpected drop in the latest unemployment figures but 80000000 jobs have still been lost in the past 3 months you know an employer rate has fallen to 13.3 percent of the 2 and a half 1000000 new jobs were created last month and that's being credited to the easing of coronavirus restrictions it was a different story in april or march when more than 21000000 people lost their jobs and experts say it could take months for the 30000000 americans still collecting unemployment benefits to find. when we had

a problem we were able to cut it off stop it just like this stop it keep everyone inside keep them away keep them together away uninfected and we saved millions of lives and now we're opening and we're opening with a bang and we've been talking about the v. this is better than a v. this is a rocket ship well trump has been criticized for invoking george floyd's name while taking a victory lap over the jobs numbers is likely election rival joe biden called his remarks despicable for black americans the latest figures show the unemployment rate has actually risen in contrast to the overall numbers hopefully george is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country this is a great day for him it's a great day for everybody this is a great day for everybody this is a great great day in terms of equality it's really what our constitution requires and it's what our country is all about. and let's me now to

steven pitts who joins us live on skype from but in california he's the associate chair in the center for labor research and education at the university of california steven pitts welcome to the program good to have you head thing is it's not a great day for everybody is it because the african american unemployment numbers actually went up to 16.8 percent what are your thoughts on term saying he's got the black community the best job numbers in history well as typically you can you know what he says. and best looking at the lens of his electoral 'd possibilities and to be honest here to talk about george lloyd i missed that one a friend was comment was that we have seen and despicable is a bit of work as well but beyond that you know when trump is important note that we don't really know for sure what's happened with the numbers even in a normal situation it's very bad to look at a month number for

a black unemployment insurance or conclusions which i think should be quite volatile from month to month you need a longer 3 a 4 month train understand was actually happening that cautionary note is amplified now given the public a problem and the mash crash and the economy it's out there a lot of reasons some botanical it's not really clear exactly what is the level of unemployment nor the level actually job creation itself right. then i think is not the time to last the question why when other numbers are dropping do african-american numbers increase jobless numbers. no the most important that we know that is very very very high and most important for the black americans and in the entire country to try to find ways to stop them the pain and the economic pain feel of a facing now how do you speed up the democrat for itself and sort of pull over it will months change one way or the other is immaterial given the magnitude of the

probably no we're facing so many big disparity between african-american jobless numbers and those elsewhere what needs to be done to ensure that this disparity declines well for the most part if we examine numbers the last 50 plus years you see a fairly consistent ratio a black unemployment a 1.2 to one and since we know those numbers exist and of i'm. in across different sort of economies and the actual age now that the time it's at age the central problem is the lack of black workers and so to really address these issues most important thing to find is that opposed to that info that our lack of focus have empathic government policy and individual from decisions and what about the average income of african-american households how does that compare with say white households well it's less i mean how much any sort of market you use economic

marker in blacks and whites blacks doing worse the unemployment rates the end comes to wages could be well you always see the racial difference of every speck being nation race of them in this country i think it's great to get your perspective on this do appreciate that thanks very much indeed for joining us take care now. well even though unemployment fell in the united states last month more than 25 percent of people aged between $16.24 out of work and it's custer reports now from washington some for the effects will last a long time. giovanni pam the men know and named joseph spend a quiet afternoon at the dog park normally they're surrounded by other people's dogs in the care of their dog walking business but today it's just own i'm a college student now so i been going to school. full time and then this was part time and pandemic and everything just went down so we lost

everything panameno says the dog walking paid for school tuition and her car now she's asking creditors for more time to pay off debts her friend joseph recently graduated with a bachelor's degree in public health she was counting on the dog walking money to apply to graduate school and now i'm probably not going to be able to go to grad school for a few more years till i kind of raise the money to be able to go young americans work in great numbers in the service industries shattered by coded the labor department reports more than a quarter of workers age 20 to 24 are now unemployed for those young would be workers the great depression is here i was searching for jobs like. 4 am a lot of job searching a lot of like e-mails saying i'm so sorry like we just got rid of a lot of our staff and we can't afford to hire anymore economists agree the impact

of this bout of youth unemployment could be more than just temporary studies show that entering the workforce during an economic downturn can depress earnings for a life time palmetto who studying hospitality says even completing her degree is difficult now there's no way to complete the in person internships that are required i actually had interviews about 3 for the pandemic hit and of course that's not happening. the cancellation of many government. in summer work programs for young people has only made matters worse but in washington d.c. the program is moving online the young workers who normally have summer jobs at sports camps and childcare centers will instead work from home offering tutoring and tech support. or openings. and.

but during this coronavirus summer the lessons for young workers may be of patience fending off creditors and overcoming disappointment. castro al-jazeera washington well while protesters in the united states mourn george floyd police brutality is also a concern south of the border in mexico 3 officers have been arrested accused of beating a construction worker to death and the government's human rights minister has condemned the use of excessive force which police deny there were but money as more . i should feel free guadalajara against police brutality. the arrest and death of construction worker giovanni in a peasant month that has caused controversy and conflicting accounts in mexico's 2nd largest city. but police say the 30 year old was detained for disturbing the

peace but this video shared widely on social media provoked protests not far from the city. bystanders identified the man being shot into a vehicle as the inquiry they say police were using excessive force and that he was arrested for not wearing a mosque then mandatory to prevent the kind of are spread police say he was taken out of the cell phone medical treatment and died hours later. the police didn't know why brutality but protesters are demanding accountability. more some use boson's to smash police vehicles some police officers pick up whatever they can to fend off protesters one policeman had petal put over her and. the governor up to let's go state says video of lopez's arrest doesn't show the reality i made out of the misleading way in which they made everyone and telescope

believe that giovanni was arrested for not wearing a mask that's already been exposed by the public prosecutor and what happened today was the cherry on the cake it was the way in which they allowed a legitimate protest a protest for a cause to be infiltrated and turned violent. the government minister the human rights accuses the police of using excessive force saying it's a clear violation of human rights and it's condemning the advance which police use force for preventative measures one of the. protests have swelled across mexico in solidarity with george floyd's death in the united states but many mexicans are also dealing with their own issues with police where they live. human rights groups have collected years of absence of police brutality torture and extrajudicial killings and protests isn't quite a hard s.f. what happened to january path is the latest example of that and they're demanding

unfortunately that negotiation though it shaved some success the general public also noticed however it ended abruptly from the saudi side they may have their reasons but from our side the reasons were not clear because the negotiations started positively it ended abruptly and things escalated shortly after that well it's an hour from our correspondent to report on what led to the blockade and what the deadlock has meant for carter and for the gulf region. may the 20th 2017 donald trump arrives in sandy arabia his 1st trip abroad as u.s. president trumps aim was to have wealthy gulf nations join the u.s. bid to defeat i still to help and the war in syria and contain what the u.s. described as iran's growing influence but that was a short lived hope 4 days later the website of qatar's news agency

was hacked and fabricated statements posted attributed to the emir of qatar critical of u.s. policies in the region the washington post subsequently cited u.s. intelligence officials saying the u.a.e. orchestrated the hacking that was just the beginning on june the 5th sardi arabia the u.a.e. and egypt severed diplomatic ties with qatar and imposed a land sea and air blockade which continues until now. the qatari government strongly denies allegations of supporting extremism qatar also condemned a list of demands from the quartet as a breach of sovereignty the 13 demands included big relations with iran closing a turkish military base and shutting down the al-jazeera media network there is no

appetite at the moment in the international community to to get involved in the gulf crisis the covert 19 condemning it has really consumed pretty much any policy making capacity in western capitals and other international capitals everybody's looking at dealing with that pandemic any insecurities across the middle east and the gulf crisis just one of many crisis in the middle east have been put on the back burner this is the man widely seen by qatar as the architect of the blockade mohammed the crown prince of all the b. and effectively the ruler of the united arab emirates ben's date and saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin said nan both strongly oppose calls for democratic reforms that have gained momentum in the region since the arab spring uprisings 9 years ago this is the law and we're going to do that to a small to live out on the challenges are huge we're talking that's not about the.

challenges and but i guess that we are talking about. well. you know you can are mixed. and then mix social environment and all of these as well as of course the hard security all of these can only. reason works together as well you know. qatar has ruled out withdrawing from the g.c.c. and says it welcomes talks with its rivals but only when the blockade is lifted. according to the wall street journal trump has recently called on sandi arabia and the u.a.e. to and their ban on qatari airlines using their space but this was turned down by the saudis and emirate is who believe the wrist riches are their only leverage to extract concessions from qatar the role kate has left lasting ones for qatar raise

infectious diseases can jump from animals to humans and 1000000 species are under threat of extinction experts warn action must be taken now to prevent an irreversible collapse in biodiversity well let's take this on we can speak now to craig charlie who says senior vice president at the african wildlife foundation and he joins us on skype from washington d.c. craig very welcome to the program 1st of all tell us why it's so important not to reach that moment of irreversible decline why is biodiversity just so important to us and the planet we live on. well i think biodiversity is important from a static standpoint needless to say but more importantly humankind is links to diversity biodiversity throughout the world and we're reliant upon the city and without it so our life is is is going to be shortened i think we have no doubt about that human

kind is it's not going to continue to evolve we are very very linked to a reliance on natural ecosystems and environmental services and for that reason we need that said i think we've got to be very very careful in terms of how we intervene on all natural ecosystems because we've got evidence in front of us given what's happening in the world today that that if in fact we intervene in the wrong way it's going to have it dramatically negative impact on human rights and what i mean by that is what would be an example of the wrong way. well i think you know again where we're taking a look at the pendent me that's in front of the world at this particular point and and i think there's lots of scientific evidence at this point that indicates that that it's linked to wild animal markets and likely man's

intervention in that population 'd or pangolin 'd populations the sale of those illegal 'd. traffic wild species is likely because of this and demi at this particular point in the timing on a specific element by diverting that you know your particular expectation that is mounting granit now only a 1000 of them remain that is in fact actually progress they were in the 101 point when they but now came in 1000 is presenting this kind of jewel attack on the ground as a sudden wiping out of tourism income for local communities in the danger of covert infections to the grimace themselves tell us more about that. sure will i've been involved with 'd mountain gorilla 'd conservation for 'd for much of my life for about the last 40 years i worked with dian fossey and in rwanda in the late 1970 s. under the umbrella of the african wildlife 'd foundation we've been heavily involved in the conservation efforts to protect mountain gorillas and when i started in the in the early 1980 s.
