not just news is breaking but also history as it's unfolding. broadening from serbia hungry, the rep one day i might be covering politics and they actually might be covering protest. what's most important to me just talking to people, understanding what they are going through so that i can convey the headlines and the most human way possible. 0, we believe everyone has a story worth hearing. ah, i me ok. welcome to the bonus edition of the stream. it is the director, scott that nice. no great conversations behind one of those gc charts that we have with gas after the show right here in this episode. coming up an uncensored conversation about the 100 anniversary of the chinese communist party from out a 0 correspondent, katrina you. you'll get to the details that citizens in china are not allowed to

talk about. we also talk to the moment on screen when george comedian, no, i'm just slipped from comedy into activism. while discussing how human has a power to bring this rainy's palestinians together. let's start with the writer of poet, clint smith, who appeared on the stream to talk about his new book, how the word is passed. i reckoning with a history of slavery across america after the show we talked about for the personal reasons that dr. clint, to write the book, and as he's also an award winning fan poet, there was no way i was going to let him go without doing a reading. take a look in orland there over 100 schools, road and buildings name for confederate labels every day. lack children walking to building named after people who never wanted them to be there. every time i return home, i drive on the street name for those what have one me and change. go straight for 2

miles on gravity. we take a left on jefferson davis. make the 1st right on clayborne translation go straight for 2 miles on the general, slaughtered on the black soldiers were trying to render take a left on the press in the confederacy who made the torture of black bodies, the cornerstone of the new nation. the 1st right on the main who permit had a rebellious place we put on state, spread across the city in order to prevent the others from getting any idea. what name is there for this sort of violence? what do you call on the road? you walk on his name for those who imagined you under the news? what do you call it on the roof over your head? it named after people who wanted the bricks? to crush it. you are so personal in the ways and tell the stories, i feel what you'll feeling and you've got that one memorable moment where you say the muscles around your mouth. twitch, you did even though you had muscles and that particular part of your mouth when i'm

thinking, okay, now i get, why did you write like that? because that is the writing of a novelist. not necessarily of a historian. yeah, i appreciate you think so. i came of age of the writer as a poet. you know what? first book is a collection of poetry. and i think part of what poetry does is it teaches you how to pay attention to pay attention to the world around you to pay attention to what's happening inside of human body. and, and i, i attribute my, my life as a poet to the ability to write this book in this way. i would have felt like a would have felt dishonest, so write it in any, any other sort of way. and so i wanted to incorporate the best of the history, the best, the, the journalism, the best of the literature, the best, the poetry that i've spent time with, and just sort of bring it all together to create one. what i hope is one

contribution that it's really rich body and work exist from scholars and journalists, writers across centuries in this country to help make it what i hope is that helpful intervention in our public discourse. and to do it in a way that feels unique to my sensibilities and how i sort of see in what does it mean for you to be doing the work you're doing with 2 little ones, a 2 year old and a 4 year old. i'm surprised you don't have more gray hair, but anyway, what does that mean? what does this mean in the context of you being a dad? everything. i mean my, my children are, you know, i mean it's cliche but i guess everything we schafer, reason it. they are the center of my life and the dedication says, this book is for them. i. i wrote the sort of book that i would have wanted to read when i was growing up. that would have been really helpful for me in attempting to

make sense as well. and i didn't, i'm, i am what i hope that they learn. not necessarily right now if we're into, but ultimately that we are part of a tradition of people, lineage of people who fought for freedom, that they knew that they might never see themselves why people were fighting for freedom in this country. black folks, for generations from the moment we arrived on the shore, which means the vast majority of and lay people against freedom or for freedom rather, never had the chance for themselves. but they offered any way because they knew that someday someone what and what i, what i want my children to understand that that, that our lives are only possible because they were people fighting for something they might never see. and what responsibility to that, i still want to fight for a more, just more equitable, more beautiful world in ways that we might never benefit from ourselves. so we do it as people have done it for us. and it is our responsibility to do it for others . seconds, after that conversation had ended,

my copy of how the word is past was gone. they were, it was past. i'm not because ed hale, he's the stream that he can operator was so moved by how passionately clinton talked about black history. that he asked the boy, my copy. you can watch the full conversation as stream don't algae 0 dot com. known shasta is a jewish comedian who has managed to find comedy in the fraud relationship between israelis and palestinians. as stories told in the new witness documentary reckoning with laughter, no shifter returns the israel, know him, makes me laugh. in the documentary, you really get a sense of how warm a slight, you, wicked sense of humor after the live show with no of the film's director, amber ferris. i want to know how i managed to capture so much comedy on camera because not all films about comedians a funny i mean, no,

i'm just translate like no, i'm just transcend sort of all of that and her just her whole being and sort of funny and related will, so it's not anything that i had to do. i just point the camera at her and let her go. but i think, you know, one of the things about non is a, she and her whole lake sort of being suited, embodies the world that we all live in, that is like so inclusive and it's funny and warm and is motional. and so, you know, as a filmmaker, there's not a lot that i have to do. i just have to, you know, to her. yeah. you how amazing it is when women work with women and what is the reason of women? you know, it's very common. you see jewish filmmakers make documentaries about palestine ins or arabs, but the fact that ember is an arab filmmaker that he's making some but me tons

a lot of meaning in a context. and what we're doing and it's very very, you know, everything always non, non but it's very complicated with amber is doing. i'm all over the place. i'm all over the place. i'm doing a 1000000 things and i don't even know why i am an amber managers to grab this piece. and this piece in this space until in a story that make sense to amber like no one would ever like what i'm doing. and in doing it's a whole really and what not like when known says it's a whole team. it's not just, it's not just me. we have a producer, rachel, the a john who's amazing documentary filmmaker, director and producer, and our editor who is about has yeah, the palestinian citizen of israel, the she speaks all the languages, hebrew, arabic, and she's also the editor of my last last them. so, i mean, so making isn't a singular thing, it's not just me, it's an entire team that come behind, you know,

behind it. so, but, but this team is predominantly women. and that's really something special. the team is in our special amber did live in the palestine for 7 years. and, and, you know, i see my role in then, israeli, due in my, my role is being part of the struggle to liberate, you know, not only the palestinians from this brutality in aggression and in justices of the patient, but also us from this and, and, and it's really a responsibility and the mission that i carry on my shoulders, among many, many things. any time that we speak up, it's time that the world knows that there are not only both need to be at the of course, you need to be at the forefront of their liberation. but there are allies,

and there are people from within the system that oppressed them that are saying no enough. this is, they were joining you because your liberation is our new ration and it's my role is really do to do whatever it takes to speak up. and this is one of the outlet. so if this is, you know, this is what it takes. i'm totally there, i don't care, i'm not ashamed. and i'm proud to be an ally in food. really dies with me and i said out loud that i didn't serve in the army and i resist and i resisted, you know, military service. i use my arabic to break this 2 races system. i encourage you to learn and use their arabic not for military and intelligence purposes. and it's time to change the story. it's time to be it. you know, it sounds like a cliche, be the alternative. speak about change enough. it's really, you know,

so this is for me, it's a time where finally, you know, my voice is my, my voice is getting stage receiving stage, but i hope that i'm speaking for many other people. yeah, and i think that's a really good point. no, i'm just sad about ally ship and when we're talking about in the context of like the of issues locally. but how do we be an ally to the digital communities? how do we be and i live in our own country, and i think no, i'm is such a great example of that. i mean, i'm canadian, myself and we all know the issues that are going on in canada right now. and i have to ask myself like how am i and i lie to the indigenous population of canada. and i think that is one of the things i really love about norm in this project is that it, it really trans israel, palestine. and we can all take something from it in terms of our issues we're dealing with in our own country. amber, phil, reckoning with laughter, is now streaming at al serra dot com. just look for the witness tab. at the top of

your computer. the united states has been out war in afghanistan for decades, but now troops are finally leaving. what will the departure of u. s. military from afghanistan? i mean, for the country. that's the question that just rushing off while hosting the stream this week. it was a huge conversation and the gas, we're more than happy to continue it after the live show. there was actually some video comments i wanted to bring on. one is from a history professor at stanford, robert cruz who sent us this, this comment, and i want to try get you guys to respond to it after we play it here. the us withdrawal has created a dangerous sort of like him. when do you feel about it, how long did you tell me on malicious us last much was leverage that was held on, but it's just still everything in the power to counter. so went on and to try to hurt waters of war. it must push the government to become more inclusive and responsive to not going public and create incentives, welcoming neighbors to engage in peace and find

a regional peace agreement. finally, do s must do more to protect marvel civilian populations. read you from the i think as our community to journalists and intellectuals and while defending women's rights to your school, to work and engage in politics, but also prepare for a refugee crisis. this could be the beginning of a massive refugee displaced civilians situation, really crisis. oh, what needs to happen in terms of civility is displaced in the country because of the taliban. she will, regardless of the political message of the place and people that live in their house and their shelter. just today we learn that more than 3000000 guns are facing that crisis. and that means like almost 10 percent of the african population, it will really bring more crisis. and we're may damage more society to build up

themselves back and we're gaining for the government. the trust of the people so that that's a clear message. people don't like the taliban besides of tat, they are looking for a safe place where they should fit themselves. ational really easy for someone to trouble village. that's everything been destroyed or needs to be destroyed. so people have choice between saving their life or their shelter, and that's the most worst we are facing. lot of crisis, comical crisis, the colgate 19 crisis lift, natural disaster we are facing. and that's another crisis which is i've got some can not tolerated. i think the government shoulder is extremely heavy to carry on all the pressure. i do believe this is the time that rather than, let's say political points of view,

we have to think things more. he and humanitarian perspective. so security is important, but human security is more important as to what we need to cooperation. it's been 20 years. is the government ready to stand on its own rush and people are asking right in that has a government prepared for this moment, you know, in 2015, john mccain came to on and on. and he was talking about the us need to continuance war and so on and so forth. and i remember i asked as far as you know, dc planning for 5 years down the line, 100 years down the line for, for us with troll. and is anybody in the whole planning for it? i don't remember. but i think just the question, this is precisely the problem is that people don't feel as if there is

a concrete plan, you know, if they can rely on this government, you know what people feel caught up between a corrupt government and a bar baron terrorist organization. and so now is the time for the government to come up to show that it can be included. all people can eliminate eruption, but it can provide security that it can do something about the economic situation. then it doesn't need to constantly rely on the outside house. and now it's really up to the group. finally, we had to china where the communist party is celebrating. it's and tina re katrina you out there as china correspondence joined josh, rushing for a candid conversation about the successes and failures of a 100 years of the party in china. in the u. s. at least not going to make circles here all the time that this is going to be the chinese century. but the last one was the u. s. century. ready now can be the chinese center, it is kind of amazing to think that it went from that kind of backwater agrarian

decided to it in 100 years is going to be a monic kind of country for early. so what, what people looking toward is, is there, i know that there's probably a lot of pomp and circumstance around that narrative in the success of that. but i'm curious as a journalist, you know what stories will get told today that it took to, to get there hello can day and basically in the lead up josh, this event, we've been hearing nothing but about this. said henry, for months now since the beginning of the year the government was liking it, and this is, i mean the chinese government is pretty heavy and began to it's pretty heavy on pushing communist ideology. but in the lead up to this event, it's kind of been on steroids. i can say it's more nationalistic pitcher patriotic cyber is reaching this fever pitch crescendo today. in arm it's kind

of where it's in the newspaper. it's in. it's in tv, almost every cinema is all around the country have been commanded to show propaganda based films like on a regular india. so what you are hearing is this message about success, this message about achievement, how the chinese government was able to get things together for the, the people and deliver, deliver in, bring millions of people out of poverty is what they say deliver by making it so that people's standards of living has increased astronomically in the past few decades. and many people in china when they're 1560, they, they believe it because they, they lived through that time where they couldn't eat. they lived through chaos of the culture of lucian. so for them, there is a lot of reasons to party, you know, they went from not to go to school,

not being able to have access to follow right bullet to kill. now, living in a way that you know is compare, but it's relatively well compared to a lot of, lot of the world, certainly a lot or the asia region. so you are hearing all about that pressure and they're doing it at t. m. and where yes, they are, they're doing one big celebration in tenements where, but just to your point what you're not going to hear. i mean, yeah. so there's to do what you're not gonna hear is basically any failure to come to the party or blunders. so you're not going to hear about the 1989, cracked each in square after the mass pro democracy protests, which was a huge tragedy. and we don't know how many people were killed you 1000. you're not going to hear about all the blunders,

and now the don't the greatly 419995900 sixty's where millions of people got it. haven't because of this renters policy, you're not going to hear about mistakes that were made, which led to the, the chinese government is controlling information so strictly. so this is not going to be, i'm to reflect the communist already could have done there at all. and when you say they're doing it, him is great. i mean, to me, it seems like a bit of are they could when you mentioned in the square around the rest of the world, there's a singular image that comes to mind of a guy standing in front of a long row of tanks. and today's image i assume will be very different just seeing because that's definitely what i think about and what i thought about before i came to china. but you have to remember if the nasa murder talks about the tenements were cracked out and nobody like no textbooks mentioned nes

internet instead controls, you can search for this. so most people would have never seen this image of tag men and gentlemen score people. i just not aware, and it's kind of crazy. my friends, who are of my generation, one in the ninety's, they found out because they went overseas or there was a time, you know, i come home and talks about, she went to my university, one of the prestigious universities here at the top university in china. and he had a professor who, you know, he was going through history of china and then had one power plane or whatever, type in a slide of can command and said, i'm not going to talk about it too much. you can go to the library and find some information about 10 minutes, correct. so this was like, you know, 20, you know, i don't know, maybe 1015 years ago. say that now you knew that that would never happen. you would never have a professor show

a slide like that. you wouldn't even have any section of the library. certainly any sanctions university have information about gentlemen square. so for people living in china tenens where it is simply a huge government and it's the center of power here in china, it's across the pond where she lives. it's across from the, from the city. it's a historical man. market surrounded the square. it's not that huge, it's surrounded by the great host of people, which is where all the important meeting meetings take place. and the other side of it is nationally seen the china and then the patient, the forbidden city. so what channels and square, i mean, the chinese people possibly different what it means to most people outside of china . so interesting. and so what would people being know about what's happening in the last of the leaders? and so for why don't they didn't know much until this year, because we had so much internet criticism china in responding and, and fighting,

and biting back. we've had this prize. one of the stories that have been done recently is, is rise of the so called word diplomacy. trying to basically having this tough, assertive, completely unapologetic so many of its policies in the policy towards the treatment of a week or so. because we've had trying to come back and put forth its own perspective on the story, that is what the people in china know about. so they know that decades there was produced violence in job that there were people attacked. a lot of people died, many of them had chinese, that it was chaotic. they know that that be many people living to follow as well, but they don't know what extent it's about that the message here is that it's about counter terrorism. it's about brief stability in order back to sion,

john that these are not re education cancer. the there is no human rights abuses that this is vocational training centers to improve the economic opportunities of the week. and then they, you know, people, state media and the government here will like flash a bunch of numbers and the bunch of figures like look, people make more money than they ever did. people, they actually have been one of the things recently that they've been trying to push with the sense figures, the things actually the numbers of the we're population of actually grown since our policies, katrina, you talking to josh rushing on instagram live the a stream instagram life series as monday through wednesday at 2030 g n t. at if you follow a day stream on instagram live, you'll get alerts every time we go live with a guest. and that's i show for today. i will leave you with photos from china's 100 year anniversary celebration of the communist party i for watching phoenix
