3:37 pm
women and children have been walking at all in search of a way home. my con, every now going to pass on the f bomb. you get to me, you get the buddy i went out and walked some of to the bordo. when i asked him what their idea was us despite us . and what happened. he said, what does it matter? because we don't have food, we don't have water. we don't have any way to escape, so whatever it is for us, this is the problem, not that. and some of them will pretty angry about the fact that you said, why didn't they just stop the rich people. one day, the ones who are bringing it in, why didn't you just lock them in and not all of them are or style to more gum. so one of them said maybe nobody told him about, you know,

3:40 pm
but for millions of indians, not only can they not afford to remain indoors without a daily income to ensure their survival. there is no home to physically distance in . in the indian census, the latest form was conducted in 2011. the homeless accounted under the seemingly contradictory title, houseless households. the official definition is bracing in its bluntness. these people who live in the open on roadsides, pavements and pipes, and flyers and staircases, or in the opening places of worship, railway platforms, the official figures put in the homeless population at around 1770000. however, civil society organizations estimate about one percent of india's urban population is homeless. that alone is 3000000 people. and it doesn't even begin to count those who are homeless in rural areas, the imagination of the prime minister and the government. i'm this world that offer

3:44 pm
which is given sort of divine sanction cost. so you do have a society which prevented the divining mastery job and then really kind of green hierarchy to people who are total and the idea of inequality. any nicotine, you somehow institutionalize this in order to have someone to oppressed, and someone to be oppressed by. that is, what does best water campaigns for the rights of indian legions of manual scavengers. these are people who physically enter and clean last sections of the country, sewage system, often without protective gear. he has an up close view of what it means to be a dollar or the lowest, a lower cost in the grid of appending. the more stuff that we are all the way in the cycle. if you're doing what we got into a battery and during the car,
3:45 pm
don't actually the annotation that's coming down the cleaning of the hot sun every day. you know, be when it can float, that is no good. that is nothing. but we are making the big one. so we will bring them into one of the division and you throw the this is our bra must be up. if it does what is waiting on the 20 when i can i get off b, c, b, t, c, and c l is not going to be the josephine at martinez is a historian and gender equity activist in spain. i spoke with her to understand how
3:46 pm
coded and inequality work in an economic and social context. completely different to that of a country like india. but we began with some of the issues that have played out similarly in both countries. for him, mostly in us who asked me what you see national what am i what i'm what i mean? maybe not believe it, but i'm not losing my
3:47 pm
time. you know, if people are gone, we see, let's see that let's it out of the can then it was really him at home, some of the realities of the imbalances and divisions that exist in our societies. for instance, laid upon the hierarchy of label divisions between blue color and white color, non essential, essential workers of politics, gender women form a vital segment of front line workers. according to the un, they make up 70 percent of the global health and social care workforce. recent data from italy, spain in the united states, showed a $2.00 to $3.00 times higher rate of cobit infection among female health care workers compared to their male counterparts. women also perform more than 75
3:48 pm
percent of unpaid care work, and almost 80 percent of domestic work locally affect largely dominated by migrant workers and other marginalized groups of color match the gus in finance on a lot of that or to the meals that are sick i know some critics how much would it cost to put it that is that is and they'll tell me see if there
3:49 pm
was a government decrease declared these people essential workers, didn't they? why did it start backlash? and she said they don't notice. it tells me that it took it, but it shows that people who necessarily are inequality leaves the shop imprint wherever it's measurable. and it's also map of all take the city of buffalo now, where residence of poor neighborhoods has been $6.00 to $7.00 times more likely to contract the virus than those in wealthy areas. in april, the rate of infection in the market area of central bossy was $77.00 per 100000
3:50 pm
inhabitants. meanwhile, just 6 kilometers away. look at this. the rate of infection was $533.00. in our prep, the oregon and sun here it said deliver jets working class satellite town is just outside of buffalo now. the rate of infection was even higher still at 604701 per 100000 inhabitants, respectively. manuel franco is a professor of epidemiology and public health at the university of color and madrid, and john hopkins school of public health in the us. i asked him what might explain the differences between the neighborhoods. one of them, what is the quality of housing and the amount of people living with you within the same household unit where we know so far is that you live in a small last 56 people. it's pretty much impossible to keep the social distance thing that we are right now encouraging people to get the way our cities are segregated and organized nowadays. and you doesn't matter if it's madrid, barcelona london or new york is some people get to choose or to pick where they
3:51 pm
want to live and others don't get to choose. and that's because of also where he started to reasons. it's not a fancy area with that, with lots of renewal, then the perfect pays were low income people and kneeling against going to come on list. so at the end you have an a mixture of low income, elderly people with immigrants from different countries of origin getting to live in these areas where we are seeing high rates of infection market. the money went up initial. well the also my guess is rota. paula, your mas now or last month. but it will turn familiar bonus. it be when my shortest will love took us. we need
3:52 pm

3:53 pm
they will compounded by the fact that the systems and institutions that are meant to provide a safety net for the public have been chipped away at for decades. making them increasingly unable to provide the services they were created to deliver the last few minutes. i mean, up only going to the book, but what it was because it medical's been that got a come on the last they did for homosexual really, really in a health emergency before you know. so how will it again, that is something that has been undermined over the years. dr.
