percent of people need emergency food dave, in ethiopia as t gray region. you countries to share vaccines with other countries before in the united the younger people and toxic cargo tests are now being carried out to see how much damage a ship fire off sri lanka, close to the environment. ah, you as president joe biden has led a ceremony in the state of oklahoma to mock the 100 anniversary of the tulsa race massacre. as many as 300 people were killed when white moms launched attacks on black homes and businesses. back in 1921 biden says, remembering the master is important for the nation to heal and so angry that he made no mention of reparations. but here from, she returns the in tulsa shortly, but fast. his report. joe biden is the 1st us president to take part in

commemorations was thought to be the u. s. his worst incident of racial violence, some 300 black residents of the once prosperous african american neighbourhood of greenwood and tulsa, were killed in 1921, as it was burned to the grounds. biden met with a last survivors of the massacre. i'm pledge to address the systemic racism that keeps african americans disadvantaged. promising to address in equity in home. appraisals like homes being valued at tens of thousands less than white homes and order more federal contracts or like businesses. the data shows young black contribution just as capable of succeeding and given the chance as white entrepreneurs are like, they don't have lawyers, they don't have they, they don't know the accountants, but they have great ideas. local businesses, welcome the focus, but the head of the greenwood chamber of commerce that was formed by survivors of the massacre as they attempted to rebuild is skeptical. the president of the united states is here, and i can even meet the talk about how we can preserve this district,

how we can help grow these black businesses, the city. it's also making money. the state of oklahoma is making money, right? these mainstream hotels is making money, but that historic black district is not going to get a bite and hasn't advanced the key campaign. pledge to forgive student deaths, which civil rights groups, they would go a long way to narrowing that racial wealth gap. nor has he spoken out in favor of reparations for slavery or even reparations for the remaining survivors of the tulsa race massacre who, a 100 years after they lost everything, still receive no compensation. there hasn't been any accountability for the massacre. either. white mobs were actively supported by the police and city authorities activist, see a direct link between today's disproportionate police violence against african americans and the burning of what was known as black wall street. my brother, tamara crutcher, was killed right here in this community with his hands in the air, an armed by a police officer of tulsa, oklahoma and 100 years prior to that. my great grandmother community,

this sacred land i'm standing on was burned to the ground state sanctioned violence . it's the same police culture that exist today that continues to harm black and brown people in this city from racial economic disparities to official racist violence. this communication has revealed deep continuity between 19212021. well, it is now speaker. she had joined us from tulsa, oklahoma. she had that you were reporting that president biden has also been unveiling some new plans to try to deal with rational inequality. how's it all gone over? yes, it's a new plans on getting more federal federal contracts to block businesses. he was talking about the some sort of required into financial institutions. so as part of black inequality, they, they, they will, they will appraise a black person's home far less even if it's an identical home to

a white person. for example, these are the issues that bite me was talking about, but i think in the end, what we heard from people around here who were in the security bubble perhaps with by himself was what we've had all week actually was what was discrimination actually about? because he didn't meet, as i said with the, with the local chamber of commerce, which is actually about, you know, this is the oldest chamber of commerce in america. it was saying that the so much money pouring into this neighborhood right now because of the collaboration $30000000.00 for this. this new museum will $20000000.00. so sorry for this new museum. and actually i think it might be the opening night. everything talk also, leach, now beginning to gather before they, before they go in. and yes, the group that was behind this public memory issue. this is the black, blue street greenwood rising scenery, exhibition. i mean have nothing to do with the survivors, all the black community that probably develop it's clear that's what's happening

right now is quite open about it's what they're trying to do here isn't create some new understanding of racial injustice. i've to try to involve the black population who is moved to north tulsa from greenwood, also them africa. but while they're trying to do is gentrify this neighborhood and make it an area of social tourism for guilty, white people and others to come and think about racism really. so there are all these little these before we took the black lives about a chapter ahead here as well. yeah, nothing to do with this either. and yet, biden was very impassioned about about about justice or for african americans and so on. so there always contradictions which again do as always unwittingly show just how, how, how far we haven't traveled since since 1921. speaking of that she had the overseas standing in the new greenwood. can you show us around a little more? what's it like now a century later? what's changed on the ground? this or this is all this. remember, this is all buttoned out, right? and so actually the little talks on the pavements,

which i what was once here. but this is all new development since 1921. what's often forgotten, there wasn't the immediate aftermath of the 21. the black business saying is that we will hear about which who had this prosperous neighbor, they did, attempt to rebuild greenwich. and at every step of the way, they was stymied by city officials by the white chamber of commerce by big corporations, by the same financial institutions. we don't give loans to black black people. and slowly, the black community was moved further and further door to north tulsa, which to this day remains an incredibly impoverished, impoverished area. and i think it's interesting, actually, well, in the last couple of weeks, that was a big celebration. and also because a supermarket opened the 1st supermarket to be not felt that they were saying, i think, i mean that's how involved she lives over there. whereas here, clearly the plan is to to justify, to make it, to make it, make sure to build on the legacy of the burning down of block wall street to make

this a place where people will come and spend money for white white developers. so yeah, i mean, it's more to the same point, i guess she had paternity there for us in tulsa, oklahoma. thank you so much. she had, well, let's now bring in dominic whitehead, he's the vice president of campaigns, the national association for the advancement of colored people, the n double a c p. he joins us from washington, d. c. dominic, i want to start with this significance of by the trip today. it really felt like that part of history was raised for so many years until it really came back into the broader public consciousness over the last some other conversations around b m. why is it taking so long? well, i'm thinking, taking so long to have these conversations that we're sorry to have and what the administration, particularly the president has brought up today. i just think that it's just been a lag in terms the congress and recent leadership that we had over the. ready years i think now we're in the place we've been in this place,

particularly african americans in this country. we began to discuss issues around racial equity in closing the wealth. the gap in this country has been more the for quite and now more than ever, everything back to the uprising from last summer to this package most passed recent election cycle where the president and the buy for the campaign on really making sure that we close the gap in african american community? well, speaking of closing the, well, scott biden's announce the measures more federal contract for minority businesses. a push for more for housing. i know you folks at the end of a c p felt like counseling student debt was a big missing piece of the puzzle. here is what we've seen today enough of a step in the right direction. no, i think the administration is definitely going in the right direction when we think about fair housing and really looking that housing. we think about education and

invested into h. b. you also in urban and rural education, we're looking at the job market and looking at the infrastructure bill, the bill in congress right now. we know that it's going into the right direction. however, we also know the african americans are disproportionately affected by student loan debt by many americans. so being able to cancel student debt will automatically and almost immediately change some of the well gap that we see in this country. and when you think about being able to purchase a home or a home ownership is typically the, the, the fast track in terms of gaining some type of wealth and beginning to close the wealth gap in so many, right? so many ways that we know the numbers are there, the data is there, that the calculation of that particular back an american, we a step in the right direction and again,

everything the president listed on today. what came out the budget last towards the end of last week for the memorial day holiday is definitely a step in the right direction, but we need to go farther. we can go further. the conversation is absolutely around to the student that dominic whitehead, that the vice president of campaigns at the end of a c p. great to have you here. joining us with your views. i'm out there. thanks for being with us. dominic. thank you so much. now the un, well, field program is wanting, the conflict in ethiopia troubled northern te gray region has increased already high levels of hunger. the agent, he says that after 7 months of fighting 5200000 people now need emergency food days . that's more than 90 percent of the population, with many regional leaders warning of a potential humanitarian catastrophe. the u. n. is appealed for $203000000.00 to scale its response. momento has one out from the capital at us about sees a situation that he's getting was by the day, according to wi fi,

they can only reach 1200000 people out of the more than 5000000 president of the ticket region. all these because of the raging conflict about 7 months ago, prime minister had sent his forces into great in what he had promised to be a very short opera ship, which he was aimed at this army when a get administration of that region. todd, by all intents and purposes, refused to deal with his administration, but that house piled on 7 months of the fighting is going on. middle highways and boards are cut off and people cannot be reached with the much needed aid. the united nations office for the coordination of humanitarian activities. people have started having some depth in some places and mentions particularly the district of all flaw which is south of the copy of the keller,

where 150 people are said to stop for the tuition is getting was in most parts of the ticket region of course the fighting the gun at the time when people was supposed to hover their crops, most of them did not do so because of the ridge and conflict. and also, an ongoing, severe infestation of locust is humping that the next topic was not on turning to the pandemic in europe's disease control body is urging e u. countries to think about supplying vaccines to poor nations before and not killing young people in their own countries. and so some of the cool to one that's been made by the w h o. both organizations want wealthy nations to reconsider vaccination, lower risk teenagers and young adults for many countries are still struggling to immunize their high risk populations. the head of the w. h. o is also pushing for

additional funding to buy more vaccines. the poor countries to morrow, callback's call and by god be said p and jo. alongside key implementation partner units f ames to raise critical new funds at its m. c. summit to further diversify its portfolio. and buy additional vaccines for low and lower middle income countries. fully financing callbacks and act is key to ending the increasingly to track pandemic. and i time the government of japan for hosting the m. c. summit among various seeking more vaccines, southeast asian countries, which are bringing back restrictions amid record sedge. malaysia has imposed a 2 week nationwide, lockdown, less than 6 percent of its population has received wonders and vietnam has suspended all international flights on the baka is in london for us with more on

the use requests regarding the global vaccine shortage. around half of all adults in the e, you have had at least one dose of vaccine around 20 percent of fully vaccinated off to a slow start. some headway is definitely being made across europe at the same cannot be said for the world health organization. kovak scheme, but very much relies upon donations from wealthy countries. many of them here are the european union that have reserved surface doses. so the message from the, the powers that be in europe is the more needs to be done, echoing very much the world health organizations keep message one, all safe until everyone had a vaccine. there is one snag though that could influence or undermine how willing these countries are to donate that dose is. and that's based upon data coming from here in the u. k. not any, you know, i hastened to add that has been some suggestion that the indian variant is doubling

very, very quickly. among 10 to 14 year old. we've known for some time young says don't get serious the ill as a result of carrying a virus, but they can very well transmitted to wider population. we know also the vaccines have an impact on reducing the transmission of the virus as well. so about may well influence countries to hold onto that doses and potentially vaccinate younger children. we're seeing here the u. k. when it comes to the indian, various cases doubling on a weekly basis. and that's a cause for huge concern. that's all going well of western countries have surplus doses, but no bad news for poor countries. dependence on the carfax game are still ahead here on our 0 america talk to head to central america. can he help fix the reasons that people are fleeing the region? and why this man's medical treatment has led to allegations of war crimes and a spanish corpse.

particularly for arizona. if we have a look at the 3 day for phoenix, we're going to have the temperature sitting at about 40 degrees. so a lot of heat on the way wildfire warnings and the heat will just continue to bill . this is similar story across northern parts of mexico, a few storms kicking in around monterey, that's from the backend of that storm system from the u. s. but things are looking relatively fine and dry in the you could 10 peninsula. the 29 in can coon, the bit going block chains and crypto guarantees. disruptive technology joined with me and introducing a bill to outlaw crypto currency all the way to a fair, a financial system. with big open source software, we can create money without paying government award winning. filmmaker tossed and huffman looks at all sides of the complex crypto crypto bit going no

but among the al jazeera, i mean, while the us secretary of state is in costa rica, as part of president joe biden's, goal to tackle the root causes of migration. and the ben can will meet latin american foreign ministers and what his department has called a search for regional solutions and comes as such and migrants to the u. s. southern border continues including thousands of undocumented an unaccompanied children, while at snugger to gabriel. alexander. he is in the costa rican capital san jose cape, took us through just what the thinking was hoping to achieve with this trip here. well, he's trying to basically resets the u. s. relationship with the central america and trying to gain more partnerships here with the countries that make up this important region. he came here to costa rica for no mistake. it was no coincidence . he came here because this is the most economically advanced country in the region with a strong democracy with very close ties to the united states. and while this visit

was about really trying to talk about democracy, human rights, security and climate change make no mistake about it. the key issue was, is the bite administration feels that they are facing a crisis that their southern border of migrants coming into the united states. just in april, there are a 138000 people that were apprehended that the southern border of those about half came from 3 countries, all countries here in central america, how, salvador honduras, and guatemala. and that's why biden is here to meet with the foreign ministers of those countries to try to get a better sense of how they can help the economies here. so people don't feel they need to take that very dangerous journey north to find a better life. the problem though, is that the united states has very contentious relationships with several of the presidents that make up this region is going to make it quite difficult. moving for the bottom line is a bite administration is promising about 4000000000 dollars over the next 4 years

in a teaching to try to help the economies here. okay, but others on the, on the ground for us in san jose, thanks very much. k. now environmental authorities and sri lanka are now testing dead fish that have washed ashore following a fire on board a ship. the vessel was carrying nitric acid and other hazardous materials. when l fernandez reports from columbia, it's 2 days and 5 through the in the pull a container ship heading to the board of colombo and sheila. but it's deadly cargo continues to wash up on the beach. wave after wave bringing millions of plastic pellet mixed with debris. the navy and other military personnel had been working no nines for days in a major clean up operation. but the cost to the environment is more difficult to quantify what this ship has created is a monstrous environment who has said, which is not only for today,

but for generations to come. not to put in this is the 25 tons of nitric acid from the ship. have had a devastating impact on plankton algae, small fish reading grounds, and coral. the pillow cheeses would have been eaten by fish and other marine life with potentially appalling, long term consequences of either of these dead fish with pellets in their gills. they were among the many washing up on shows. in recent days, this turtle was found on a beach for the south, the why left department which carried out tests on the caucus said distinctive markings on each shell with the fist, probably by the effect of acid micro pellets were found in its stomach. the government has struggled to deal with the disaster because it lack specialist fire fighting equipment, and that's an good environment live. if there is a ship,

when this says if that i, it shows the 1st thing that you do is you look to see whether we have the treatment and the personnel to, to handling. if you call don't stay keeping your waters. and i believe this re lung can government to keep in thinking of compensation. local fishermen have also said the impact adding to the problems they already faced. right. 19 member, they last we had, coven, couldn't go fishing, or people weren't by now catch 2nd. there was a psych loan and we were asked not to go to sea for about 5 days. only god knows difficulties, fishermen face the 3rd hit was the ship catching fire. during all of this, fishermen were told not to go to see. this is ordered quickly, but no one looked into how we can survive. savages brought in by the ship owners boarded the smouldering wreck on tuesday. as they were concerned, the vessel was taking in water. traces of oil of sediment were also seen. watching
