the ruling to teach the children the lake but with but still in its place it becomes a complete wreck. recently no where to go to leave people here all of them in to treat them with something within respects. minneapolis bans police chokeholds as nationwide protests continue of a georgia guidestones. there and this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up we did national. war the n.f.l. admits it should have listened to players fighting for racial equality 4 years ago when colin kaepernick knelt in protest during the u.s. national anthem. a surprise jobs report in the u.s.

the unemployment rate forwards raising right the economy is recovering from the coronavirus of uptown but the news isn't all good. and celebrations in libya as forces loyal to the u.n. backed government retaking a key town an end one or 2 before have to us push to capture the capital. now a growing number of u.s. police departments and forcing changes to their tactics in the wake of georgia for its staff the city of minneapolis where he was killed is now banning police tried calls and will require officers who see colleagues using improper force to step in and stop them as well as banning police are called to new york state plans to classify false race based calls to imagine says as a hate crime and california will stop training its officers to use the type of restraint that killed george flowing 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 carotid hold that literally is designed to stop people's blood from flowing into their brain that has no place any longer 21st century practices and police. customs to me has more now on the changes being made by new york state's government 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. well let's take you now to some live pictures from portland oregon where it's just past 8 o'clock protests continue there and as you know they've been continuing now for 11 days we've seen thousands and thousands of people come out with anger over the death of george freud demanding police reform

and racial equality in the united states obviously we've been seeing protests take place across the united states this one and oregon is just one of many that are continuing it has been broadly peaceful over the last few days and especially in portland since some initial looting and some vandalism that took place much earlier on in the week we have seen broadly peaceful protests there and we hope that they will continue we'll be bringing you more and more developments on that as they happen these live pictures now from oregon now n.f.l. commissioner roger goodell has apologized for the way the u.s. football league handled players' protests against police brutality back in 2016 colin kaepernick and others began kneeling before games while the national anthem was played kappa nick was fired from his team the san francisco 49 ers and has never been hired since google posted a video saying the league should have listened to black players concerns. national

to early. racism systematical. black people we the national think nearly if we weren't for not listening to the players earlier and encourage all just speak out. we had a national early leave lives man all the about turn comes after a group of n.f.l. players released this video on social media. for what it was to be rude about. all the players also demanded that the n.f.l. should specifically say that black lives matter. new orleans saints quarterback drew brees has apologized again for comments he made about the protests in the u.s. earlier he said he would never support those who neil cheering the national anthem before games calling it disrespectful but he is then issued

a written apology on social media and now he's followed it up with this video. i wish i would have laid out what was on my heart. the regards to the george ford motor. a model agree. the years and years of social injustice police brutality. and the need for so much reform and change in regards to legislation some of the other things to bring equality to our black men. i'm sorry and i will do better and i will be part of the solution and i am your ally. well the u.s. president has weighed in on the fallout over the pay is meeting protest on twitter donald trump criticized breeze for apologizing for his original tweet trump said the american flag was to be in his words revered cherished and flown high he went on to say players should stand tall with their hand on their hearts to honor the flag he ended his comments with

a command no kneeling or we cannot speak to. a legal analyst and a contributor to forbes dot com he joins us now on skype from chicago xavier let me start by asking you for your take on google's apology such a departure from 26 states or why now it's because roger goodell the national football league. and rests even more groups out in the streets by police officers like we saw in buffalo new york of a 75 year old man being pushed for and we've seen a weighting of white people in this country that no longer based on what we saw with amy cooper with a burger in new york using a wire to try to weaponize that against a black man krishna cooper is that it's no longer a fight club used to be fight club for white people that this is white privilege

that i was enjoying to ignore the fire black people no longer can happen anymore and so are the bell he comes out this looks like more p.r. he's responding to what players have said not to the player who started all rock college happening he never mentions calm down and he mentions the players this is what roger goodell is afraid that the same protests that have bridged our cities across america will get enough else stadiums with enough though season begins so is why to get out is really sincere about his apology he would have thought he would ask all of 32 member team owners in africa all the 2 or written apology to current happening there also donate money to know your rights campaign which is it was involved collaborating with minnesota organizations. to be able to provide legal assistance for those who've been arrested for protests and lastly the n.f.l. in addition to all in him apology and owing him for the money to pay into the

because that he actually champion would yield 4 years ago would be to give him a job and so right now roger goodell's cinema seems pretty hollow at this point they do i do want to ask you because this is essentially going to taking up a fight with president trump and i know a lot of n.f.l. owners a supporters of the president so how does that play out here. well assassin what the issue is is that the inability once had a you know the anthem policy that they suspended but they have never actually formally retracted that ali sees it instead that it is it's completely gone and so right you don't think urging players to kneel what that was doing is you want to be able to place the negative attention that you are receiving from your presidency and dump it on n.f.l. owners and you know owners do not want to take on the fight or a losing fight we're starting to see where we are seeing that meet people are

starting to change their opinions and being able to be more open to this discussion being had. we can't go back to discussing kneeling or not dealing people try to avoid the discussion about the college that it was kneeling about no longer can be ignored so disgusting whether the kneeling or not kneeling that seems soft or it is we're beyond that now we're on to solutions and that's what people are focused on and i think they're right you know they're not going to get to the fight that this president has with its citizens and within a couple of years well let me ask you then say about representation within the within the n.f.l. itself and 3 courses of the pay is african-american but i believe most of those in positions of power as a coach as their wires does this apology then the tension represent a broad shift in sentiment within the n f l. i don't know about that stops it so in addition to the things that they in the old owes college at night they've already paid a settlement were colluding remus that he brought personally is the n.f.l.

we saw the club just recently trying to change the rooney report which required teams the inability to interview minority coaching candidates and they're looking for a new coaching candidate that was now to make a machine on the n.f.l. have to truly put some roots heat in being able to positions of coaching coaching lines general management executive office musicians and also include women on how to be d.q. community as well but there are no owners in adult football so addition for the rooney rule making sure you have the n.f.l. half the reste dorsey's behind empowering those 2 by teams is now time and not just change the representation of leadership is not enough of that able to change the representation in ownership as well then after all. they have made that last and a contributor to forbes dot com speaking to us from chicago thank you so i think i'm great to get your insights. thanks for having. now president almost trump says

the u.s. economy is bouncing back from the effects of the current a virus pandemic that's off to the unemployment rate unexpected they dropped to fat 10 percent but there was little change for african-americans while the economy also regained $2500000.00 jobs in the month of may economists are warning that the crisis is far from his own battles. u.s. unemployment declined slightly from its highest levels during the crisis of the coronavirus pandemic as some businesses and factories reopened president donald trump was quick to claim credit saying the economy is taking off as he put it like a rocket ship will go back to having the greatest economy anywhere in the world nothing close some economists disagree saying the economy is still staggering and millions of workers still suffering it's a small blip in what is another wise belief jobless picture i think it's important

to remember that we had the highest level of unemployment in the u.s. census the 2nd world war last month the picture has improved likely since then we've added about 2 and a half 1000000 jobs but it is important remember that there are still 19600000 workers who are remain unemployed religious to the situation in february before the . crisis hit the crisis is still upon us in a bizarre twist trump tried to connect the unemployment numbers to the killing of george cloyd by police with a positive spin. hopefully george is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country there's a great day for him it's a great day for everybody presumptive democratic presidential nominee joe biden called trump's reference to floyd despicable and criticized him for boasting about the jobs report i was disturbed over to see the president crowing this morning.

basically having a mission accomplished banner out there when there's so much more work to be done. so many americans are still heard trump also claimed full slee that he had ordered the country to shut down during the pandemic in fact he resisted the shutdown and criticized governors who issued stay at home orders the u.s. says nearly 2000000 confirmed covert 19 infections and more than 110000 people have died c infection rates have not claimed adequately. new cases appear to be growing in many areas of the country this is threatening to drive us into another surge of cases in the fall or center and that's going to cause another lock down the economy. speculators on wall street cheered the unemployment numbers driving share prices sharply higher investors' exuberance is strikingly
