10:21 am
convoy, are saying that they're a little bit behind in gathering scheme across the country. we'll see how that convoy continues as they roll their way into ottawa, come this weekend. australia has paid $14000000000.00 for the copyright of the original flag that it was created in 1971, and it's become the official flag while straightly as native indigenous people. the integers artist who created it least the right son would charge it for its use, but organizations like the australian football league use of lag, but refuse to pay for the minister for indigenous australians has now flagged along to everyone. joining me now for melvin is tanina odus williams, who is an average aboriginal community organizer could talk with us on the program . ms. williams, i just got your reaction to the situation that's unfolding. now, why this flag perhaps can't be owned by everyone because i'll be opposition to it.
10:22 am
well, i'd be, well thanks for having me. and my 1st fraction will oh, i'm excited, right? but then my 2nd reaction was that i don't want this try and government orient slide that represent that community. that flag was created out of protest and out of fighting against this institution is balance the truth of the land. and now they and i think, you know, i know the people saw the campaign. i book the farm all mom when they had the face problems when you were lazy copyrights from her house. and you know, i said, you know, with a bite we should be able to use the like how one to and so yeah, it's really complicated. yandy about it. do you actually cost
10:23 am
like a $20000000.00 to try and go on them and you know, to people about that, we should be just an average. i see what you see. we come from and i have to play devil's advocate here. so i hope you'll play along with me. so if i say, why should those have up original descent, be the only ones who have exclusive use to it? what's the benefit or advantage in that to the aboriginal community? i don't think it's great the fact that any but i think that everybody should be here. like when the rod, at least the copyright from p, they actually what allowing some people to use it without just aboriginal meditation or operational corporations. frictional pays for people who use it,
10:24 am
but you had to pay that because it's based off work. and i think that should be used everybody. everybody should be able to use it on the mottos, moving in, but i don't think it's owned by your strength. so where does this leave the organizations that have flags that a quite unique, for example, has it opened the doors to countries owning flags from groups or communities who feel that their flag belongs to the state to be that it raises lots of questions like the l g, b t q flag, you might have the tibetan flag while latino is often used in protests. it does raise questions about those sorts of groups and where they stand in their respective communities and countries. yeah, i think, yeah, i think it does. it is a bit error that the government can are in by the present. they all
10:25 am
know that have the strength like and work with them in the represent. i really think that our community should i know the rock to it, but anybody should be able to use it. and i think it's really i'm really glad that he got money. but that because he's an operational author and i just think that it should have been, should've been in the community and not gotten that because someone mentioned on twitter today. imagine is israel health by like writers. and it would be so infuriating. and i think that we may be, you know, remember that strategy is the colony and perform acts of violence. i'm african people every day and i don't have the right to have a flag that represents every i think it is a conversation that's going to be all of a flutter call. certainly social media as you suggest,
10:26 am
for the rest of the day in the coming weeks of the moment to a tiny notice. williams, thanks for joining us. now the mayor of york has outlined his plan to combat gun violence in the city. not that a recent shootings, a full police officers, new york is one of many years, said he struggling with a surge in violent crime. a warning that is flash photography in this report. gabriel alexander reports from new york on another bloody weekend in new york city to police officers shot while responding to a call of a domestic dispute. 22 year old rookie officer jason rivera, died at the hospital. his partner, police officer wilbert mora remains in critical condition. officials say he's fighting for his life. i am struggling to find the words to express the tragedy we are enduring. and the violence in new york this year has reached other victims as well. a 19 year old woman shot and killed during a burglary at
10:27 am
a fast food restaurant in the bronx. and 11 month old baby grazed by a stray bullet by a gun wielding man, running through the streets. and a 40 year old woman pushed to her death in front of a subway train at the times square station by a man police described as homeless and mentally disturbed. on monday may or eric adams, a former new york city police officer, rushed out his public safety plan offices or doing heroic work, getting guns off the streets. but traffickers keep the guns come in. that must in. but it's not just here in new york, homicide rates throughout the united states have soared to their highest levels since 1997, chicago, st. louis philadelphia. some of the cities that are struggling to contain as serge and violent crime, leaving many to wonder what is going on. it's really
10:28 am
a toxic brute. it is more stress, more isolation, and more guns. it is less social support, less policing and less trust in police, and all of that is blendy together to cause this really substantial rise in gun violence. but some victims rights advocate say the focus on guns is misplaced to blame guns. i like i said, there's no kind of gun fairy that's coming and doing this and until they start enforcing law and keeping the bad guys behind bars where they belong. this is not going to change. but in new york, everyone agrees the violence needs to stop. the question is, how before any more lives are lost. gabriel is ando al jazeera new york, the world's biggest, most powerful and most expensive space telescope is arrived at its destination. a 1000000 and a half kilometers mirth. its mission is to gather information from the most distant reaches of the universe. so scientists can study the birth of the 1st galaxies. rob

reynolds has the details. i feel almost a month since its spectacular blast off from french guiana. the james web space telescope has travelled, one and a half 1000000 kilometers to its celestial observation post. we're now in our orbital destination and internet be able to make amazing discoveries. from its vantage point, web will train its huge light collecting mirrors to the farthest distances in the universe. it makes its observations not in the visible range of light, but in the infrared part of the spectrum that will enable it to essentially see through the vast clouds of dust and gas that obscure the view web will look back at over 13 and a half 1000000000 years of cosmic history to the origins of the very 1st galaxies formed after the big bang. that prospect of finding things that completely surprise
10:30 am
us, that sort of change the way we understand the universe. that is what i'm most excited about. with this telescope, the $10000000000.00 telescope unfolded it's complex array of mirrors, infrared cameras, specter graphs, and sun shields without a hitch because infrared instruments are extremely sensitive to heat. web will now spend several months cooling down to minus $233.00 degrees celsius. we expect the 1st science images from j or a c to come back in about 5 minutes. so be getting excited, getting ready for those to come back later on this summer. and we can expect really spectacularly beautiful images to come back from this awesome new telescope webs mission of discovery may last as long as 20 years. a pathfinder seeking answers to cosmic questions, alone among the silent stars. rob reynolds alger 0.
