also, i'm dumb, i'm waiting in line for his number to be called wasn't what types of sit i've been time imagined he'd need to do to get food to fill his stomach a day labor. he used to be able to afford meals for himself and his family, but that was before conflict between sedans, army, and the current military rapids support forces started in april last year. the fighting took away his source of income and force them from their home. and what was that, how to do? i lost my job because of the conflict and moved my time the several times. and that has been very costly, especially with no source of income. so i now stay here in a school for displaced people with my family. and i come here daily and sometimes go to other kitchens to get 2 meals a day. is one of hundreds of people who come here each day. more than half of working age for the needs worked and non formal factors before the conflict. lack of access to the jobs as fighting continue means many have lost their income.

fighting has also limited supplies in markets and increased fluid costs of the music. that sounds like best provide food for thousands of people here in a little mine. but the city isn't the only place in the capital where people need help getting enough to eat the high cost the food and it starts at the end markets mean many around the capital can no longer afford to feed their families. and that's contributing to the high numbers of those around the country already facing the same problem. 8 agencies such as the world food program, say more than 40 percent of the dance population are facing hunger here and undermine kitchens. being available like this one known as hot room kitchen means food for a family for the day the initial unit. but if we took care we provide for more people, we may give out 5 kilos of lentils, and that would be enough for 2 days for a family cooking. it helps us seedmore families and we provide food daily. some of

our kitchens provide for up to 2000 families. the sedans government says such initiatives are welcome to ease the needs of civilians affected by the conflict mission now and then how much more. i mean i took i out with him. i thought what matters is that provides help to the citizens because our capabilities, government is extremely limited. kitchens are directly type the communities we coordinate with them and they're open to all the initiatives. we are trying to develop kitchens from wheezing in lines and serving them in their home. there's a few in the hudson in the west fight and continue the number of those in need of food supplies is increasing. for many here waiting in line is the only thing that keeps them from starving, at least for one day, even more than all just their own. i'm through mind. and that said from me, laura kyle: and much more as ever on our website that sound is there a dot com and i'll be back with more news off the phone the

the width of the you the single the state prison i one day you know, i growing up in that place, the when you look out, industry you and going as me moving,

i'll come to your mind some wrong in louisiana. we still are in the air the . ready the name is brandon jackson. i'm a 3 point louisiana. i've recently been released on parole after 25 and a half years. have been flee now less than 90 days, the

confined and gave way corrections. my hope is not just to become my goal is to reach out and go above the individual. this is in the same place. i am to the code for each of the data lee. they won't be last time that they seem really going to become part of one of the best averages that they ever seen. this voice riley of these guys get out, you know, to get the voucher, the test. that's what my driver. right. and that's where my head in the so anything grade pro? good luck sir.

mr. nash, i believe are ready to flew out. and basically the is the feel so real as their families. they are waking up throughout the night around the time that they count inside of prison. a lot of times when i wake up, i just laid, there is the, takes a minute for it to sit in. and i'm a man of my word. i said, i'm going to be those god hope i'm a fight for it. okay. and that's what i'm doing because even though i'm i yeah, i'm still one of them. i'm packing overnight. they

should drive down to bed room to speak to lawmakers from 1996 was found guilty and try to burn it, came back 10 voted to convict to voted to exonerate. and as when made my case with they called jim crow conviction, they're called jim crow jury laws. they allow injury that is not unanimous to convict someone of the crime, the effect of me. and you still have individuals in prison right now disappeared and affected by the jim crow long. the thing with me to

tell them that they need to hear that a lot of gas in down there and don't just on my way is be from now. i back the the good now for the 25 years or 2. it shows. right. the way it was more but i fear comfortable more around people. i had been in prison. i just reached out to show you want to been home 2 or 3 months before me the already doing the ran into you 25 years. i'd be watching. give you people understand a thing that we've been through,

you know the yeah. the behind a lot of people are allowed to do. so i'm going to move to these 2 to us. the every prison in the state of louisiana, all built on was lane plantations and they drive, you likes, ladies, they got the hosses. they got a full well they got, they got they watching over you telling you to get back to work you had to go was come kicking on your bed if you ran out of bed by 530 with them just, you know, driving you and pushing you to work for free the whole system of angola is late. yes,

uh no sir. to to i as in law. it is. you're saying it does not go. when i went down go to 1991. i was 17 years old. there was a, there was a real difficulty is to just pay the bill . i'm it, terrence 1998 in a blog inside and go. the been in prison teaches you to cut off the most is a direct result of slavery. a slave was taught not to love nobody because the person in love with the person there to get so but when you do that you take and we pieces and you manage so coming home,

it's hard to kind of like transition because as a side is not normal people don't shit the most of all to have been psychologically reprogram and that's like how did you last a lifetime sometimes we don't ever recover from those traumatic experiences of just send us the biggest challenge for brain and right now is coping with the next person you know, it was best known and job. last week i ended up getting a job with someone telling you what to look. it puts you in a mindframe, so like you, you talking just like this, your man, he talking to me like i'm still in prison. the

6th and told me to just show up the work morning at 6 am. so that's what i did. i was here like 530 because i feel like if i give you guys 6, i'm like, how many more days we got to know what i'm just landers. i had an opportunity to get the job because now i have to have my mom and my everytime she overcame counts. if she'd be colby, she'd be on attacks every time whatever she went to the 1st thing to to say to g going nowhere to see me come on down put that in to be added to your home. yeah. right. okay. did you have any kids? have you put a mania, almo, either 30 minutes?

i need to live most you that's. busy the only thing that i would do for you know, losing my mom while i was incarcerated. brandon lived in fear every day. i'm having to suffer like id love, my mom and my, my father was what i was in prison. so in prison, bradley became a work i'll do turn and everything all to supply. you was able to wipe away the emotions desperate part of a hard person because you've got to do because don't do it. you're going a sofa in a way that you don't want to suffer in prison. now he's back in society. he has his own. brandon seals himself behind his bolt.

i think that he's trying to find his niche. when does he really belong? he's going to keep going until he said where he's being the i don't want it to be and i want to be invoice. right? yeah, i'm ready. right. it doesn't work that way. i don't feel like i'm except the parent though we always watch. i'm on parole. for 1718 while you is the simplest thing, dick in friday,

or send me back to prison in the row system. if you do the wrong thing, you could always passed away from our. i mean, you, man, we are right there about to pay that for road days in the state of 1st. so right now, my parole fee is $63.00 a month and i may have to pay them at least a $187.00 times. so the total would be $11781.00. i'm free but i'm not free because i'm still really basically down to the department of corrections the steering board and show you know, my,

the he's that one has a need to see a guy to report to a man with a gun and a base. this man came to my doses of practice. mon, i'm looking for him. he's not locked up. but he still got a mouth cause that probation officer can we both? can i send him back? he's free and he's now free. the, you don't bring your child into to where to become a prisoner no matter how long he was going to be in prison. i was going to be use rad in dash, because he didn't have anyone. and now the shame of him gone to prison. i mean, he was worthy to see him walk out

of dreamy and he was out today. she is a was just barely writing. it's something that you can explain cause had weight is so low. i've worked so hard me 25 years in prison. brandon jackson served that time for armed robbery, even though some members of the jury felt him not guilty. there are about 1500 other prisoners in the state, georgia affected by split jury's and are still in prison. despite the supreme court ruling, those verdicts unconstitutional the

way louisiana lawmakers created the gym. closure was 1898. they wrote our mission was to establish the supremacy of the right. right. that's what they wrote. and it did what it was designed to do. we still have the highest incarceration rate in the world.

the laws need to be changed. the are coming on, but i stand for thousands times, especially about 30 minutes of to an hour of talk in the well, how are you? well, thank you for giving us the hi. brandon has a non in history verdict recently been pro and wanted an opportunity to talk on

behalf of himself and the others to remain in louisiana's prison system. i've received a live sentence for crime that i didn't commit 10 wides. you're responding to your to, to but accident i did 25 and hey, i mean as i watch all my family members that we can't confuse law. we just, we can't do that because we all are in agreement that this is a racist allow the supreme court ruled that it was on constitution, but they ruled it prospective instead of who the rich rac, whatever's unconstitutional, should that be all caught the toughness, both fall and that's why i'm sitting there today. i'm alone right now, but stand out because i was crying the same

way if they still offer mine or the ball, sometimes it takes you know, mean faces to come here, given the opposition that with a look we've got like, we will fight like hill. i hope it doesn't take them. you're getting dark down in your back. even look up, we don't get up. they'll continue to fight. whatever you need me to do. just this call coming i'm. i'm now. pretty sure. all right, staff. big around. brown. the ok, are you doing? my brother was convicted of it. jim crow, jerry. i feel like we rode the both together. we pride our ones. yeah. i'm gonna do what i can

do. i'm gonna do that. i'm afraid for it. okay. it keeps me crowd. it keeps me hopeful well, the organ on the trip to go to new orleans, but it's into, oh awesome. and all of us have gone. all terminated costs are really cheap. so it's just those going. so i'll support the . the court already declared these gym pro jury laws unconstitutional. what's that state now is whether that should be retroactive and other people still in prison by

a non unanimous verdict must space a new trial. the we are here today, the life of these courts and let them know that the marble will be in the face, bowl of freedom, freedom. and so all the way all we have to do is hold. the hope happens tomorrow. i'm hoping to just lose or if that's an unconstitutional loan. why can't you overturn, let's make it retroactive the grid this the, you all,

you go rogers, the may i please the court in this state. we believe that people are innocent until proven guilty, but hundreds of predominantly black louisiana and remain in prison despite never having a constitutional verdict. and they do so based on louisiana's last jim crow laws. and we can fix that here. we're waiting on. c

the today, suzanna supreme court, heard state the radical, nearly a 100 years after the 1890 a constitutional convention met for the purpose of insuring the supremacy of the white race in louisiana. and hopefully today were able to write that wrong. like this is a case opportunity to, to really kill louisiana. the

point of 5, navy is emperor as some of the things you know, your a want to be a normal as, wow, you know, i shut down with that domain and i listen. i just look at that is strange, but i will i will be done today because of all changes. is there a man now? are you going to like you can? we don't have the cable macaroni and cheese debris, that's a labs. thoughts to, to 0 is better than things and hopefully on the way i look at it

now, i can get up and go to use my mom to make our coffee here for us. that doesn't mean they're going to wind the behavior to a fight against a system that was already to stick to the guess they made the world to me. i'm hoping that the fight that i took on makes a difference. that's the only way that something is going to change the

of israel's war on gossip be coming forever across the united states. why are the student protests for palestine being met with military style track down? why despite insist on 0 consequences for israel in its war on gaza, the quizzical look of us politics, the bottom line, 14 is in power, full prime ministers in 5 years. now poll suggests that voted is one person's conservative out, will be u. k. like to change on the labels to stall them up to give receipts to knock another chunk, stay without a 0. the coverage of the you can next. one is the effect of the conflict on the environment. the impact is so much more than just emissions from tanks, ships and will fight motormouth. it has
