this also she lights the here and now, the debate over policing and race and demand for justice for rayshard brooks and so many others, and the police officer who pulled the trigger one week ago is due in court this morning. an encounter at wendy's escalated when rolfe and another officer tried to execute an arrest and fled police. facebook took down a trump campaign ad with a symbol that matches a nazi concentration camp uniform and a resignation from the black leadership saying her conscience will not allow her to serve of this president and there's preferred coronavirus news suggesting that you forgot and ignore the pandemic but the numbers and facts tell us what you already know. you can not wish away this resilient virus. infections now rising in 23 states. the nation's top expert

dr. anthony fauci says this morning the best way to protect yourself is to avoid crowds, but the president is yet again ignoring dr. fauci. you can see lines forming already in tulsa, oklahoma where the president makes his campaign rally return tomorrow, planning to pack 19,000 people or more into an arena even though oklahoma's case count at the moment setting daily records in the wrong direction. oklahoma is one of eight states breaking records when you look at the daily average of new cases over the past seven days. florida and arizona also among the eight. each of these states now adding more than is a hundred new infections a day according to the tracking by johns hopkins university. cnn's rosa floress is in miami fours and kyung lah is in phoenix and today the record numbers are even worse. >> reporter: you're absolutely right. florida breaking the record again. yesterday we were talking about a record of 3,207 cases in just one day. well, today the numbers were

just posted, and that number grows to 3,822 bringing the total number of cases here in the state of florida to near 89,000 cases, and deaths exceeding 3,100. again, florida breaking its own record, 3,822 cases in just one kay. governor ron desantis' office continues and maintains that this is all due to aggressive testing saying he's not going to shut down the economy. his communications director tweeting earlier today, quote, in florida the average age of covid positive cases is 37 years old. icu beds and ventilators are available if needed and death rate remains low for covid. it isn't about the rising numbers. it's about hospital capacity and florida is ready to handle. let me share those hospital numbers with you.

23% of icu beds are available in the state of florida. 25% of regular beds are available, and, john, again, like you said, you and i here talking about this again, florida breaking the daily record. that number today 3,822 cases in just one day. john. >> rosa flores for us in miami. let's go from miami to scottsdale, arizona where kyung lah joins us as well. mayors in that state are taking new actions now because of their concerns. >> reporter: at least a dozen if not more of these mayors just by our count, just what we're seeing from their public declarations. they are scrambling to come up with some sort of mask ordinance on the local level because the governor has not declared a statewide mask rule for arizona, so these mayors are trying to take it into their own hands now, so why the emphasis on masks? because of the numbers.

just yesterday the latest day that we have for figures, 2,519 cases in one day. that's a dramatic rise from just a couple of weeks ago. arizona has been on a steady upward climb when it comes to the new cases, and even a bigger concern, the percentage of hospitalizations in the icu. that number is at 84%. now the governor says that there are enough beds, that he feels confident that people will be cared for if they get sick, but certainly that high percentage is concerning this state, and it is also concerning e.r. doctors. i want you to listen to this one doctor and what he has to say about what it feels like inside phoenix-area hospitals. >> you know sometimes miracles happen and perhaps god will save us, but the trajectory is looking bad f.what i say in the e.r. is anything like what's happening in arizona then i don't think the numbers, as bad as they are, are even bad enough

to reflect my experience and indeed the numbers do seem to be getting worse and worse. >> reporter: and when he says worse and worse, he's talking about every single day. the doctor is one of 3,000-plus letters to sign a letter urging the governor to require statewide mandate on masks, something the governor says at this point he simply won't do. john. >> kyung lah on the ground for us in arizona. let take a number to text and and take a national look at where we are. number one you look at the trend map. again, just because case counts are going up. some of the governors are right. it's not always a cause for concern, but 23 states heading in the wrong direction. eight of them are reporting 50% higher rate of cases this week than last week. that is troubling no matter your perspective on this. eight states, the dark red states. you see florida among them and texas among them and oklahoma among them ump out in the west as well. 23 states overall with a higher case count and 12 states, that's the base holding steady, most of

them in the northern half of the country, full. is a states in green heading down. the deeper the green means the faster the drop down, so that's good news for the state of vermont there. let's take a look at these states with the highest number of new cases. these are the eight states who have hit their highest seven-day average in recent days. they include california and arizona. if you go out here, texas, oklahoma and florida, the states where the case counts are jumping up. at this point i want to bring in our chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta. sanjay, let me play contrarian here. these governors say, okay, big population, big states like florida and texas, we knew this was going to happen. we're opening up. people are back out there, but we've got this, stop worrying. it's about hospitalizations. it's not about cases. how would you answer that? >> well, i mean, the numbers were expected to go up as you reopen. that part of it is true. the question has always been how significant was that increase going to be, and could the states handle it? two things to point out. first of all, it's not just that we're testing more.

therefore, cases are going up. that sounds imminently reasonable, but issue is that you have states where the testing has remained relatively flat like florida that you just showed but cases have gone up significantly n.oklahoma testing rate has actually gone down and cases have still gone up, but the big issue i think, john, really if you take a state like florida is going back to this flattening the curve term which people have heard so much about back in march and april and in particular now as rosa flores was just talking about. 75% of the icu beds are full. if they start to have significantly more people getting sick going to exponential growth that's a real concern, so there's no other magical principal here, john. >> you talk about flattening the curve. we've been at this, four-plus months having this conversation. from the very beginning we talked about the goal was flattening the curve. let's take a look at we go through it. the u.s. new cases. the red line is your seven-day moving average and, yes, the united states is down from where it was in late march, early april. it's down here and the last

couple of days started to trickle back up, seven-day moving average so you can call this flatter, maybe flat, the question is it's starting to go back up, but it's a plateau at best. still 20,000, between 20,000 and 30,000 new cases a day, sanjay. we talked a little bit about this but don't make a direct comparison to italy because it's a smaller country and easier for the government to manage but this is flattening the curve. this is what it looks like if your country has flattened the curve. you're coming down like that. you're not plateauing and even starting to trickle back up like that. this is what we talked from the beginning, a line that looks like that. here's what happens if you look through the regions of the united states, why it's a lot more complicated than italy. we have 50 states and every state is doing it their own way. the northeast, that's a flattened curve, it's dropping down. the midwest, flat, dropping down, it's the south that is now going up and the west that starts from a relatively low position starting to go up, so when you look at those lines, sanjay, it tells you, at least in the south and maybe in the west, they do not have this

under control. >> that's right, john. i would take it a step further and say that maybe there's a little bit of a regret in flattening the curve as being the ultimate metric of success. flattening the curve was basically in medical terms to stop the bleeding. that is with a the acute care. unfortunately, it became the only metric of success i think that we think of here in the united states. ultimately an adequate measure of success would have been, as you showed with italy, to try to bring case counts down into the hundred, not the tens of thousands on a daily basis so in many places around the country, we flattened the curve. hospitals are not being overrun. therefore, we can claim victory. i don't think that was ever supposed to be the ultimate marker of success here, you know, and -- and right now we're nowhere near that. what we've just seen is a shift from the northeast as you point out with the graphs from the south and to the west. >> let's look at another challenge in the here and now. again, i'm going to go back here first to the map. if you look at the trend map in

the united states. oklahoma is among the states that has -- reporting this week, 50% higher cases and rates than they did last week so let's look more closely at oklahoma. again, this is not where you want to be going. you're heading up and heading up in a dramatic way. this is a seven-day new confirmed case, the red line is the moving average. recent days are shooting up like that. hospitalizations if you're the governor of oklahoma, you can say we are down. the question is are you starting to trickle back up at this moment of higher cases? are you starting to trickle up. we bring up oklahoma because the president is due in tulsa there, due there for the first big rally since coronavirus. 19,000 people or so to pack into an arena. the governor says you're welcome, mr. president. the tulsa health director says i'm a little nervous. >> oklahoma is ready for your visit. it's going to be safe and we're really, really excited. >> let me be clear, anyone planning to attend a large-scale gathering will face an increased risk of becoming infected with covid-19. >> i recommend that it be postponed until it's safer,

until the data tells us that it's not as large a concern to have people indoors and in closed spaces. >> just common sense, sanjay. you're at risk if you put yourself in a large crowded situation. how big of a risk? >> man, john, i'll tell you, that the cognitive dissonance there in those two clips that you just showed will be historic. it's amazing. no wonder the country has whiplash over this whole thing. when we say there's increased risk. what i'm starting to learn is that means different things to different people. it's obviously riskier if you're indoors. it's obviously riskier if it's a crowded situation if people are talking loudly, even yelling as often happens at rallies like this. it's -- it's a bigger risk if you're not masked. i think people sort of get that. john, what i wanted to do, what we spent a good chunk of the day doing is say let's take the specific event and sort of figure out how much of a risk is it really? 20,000 people inside this stadium potentially. how many people are going to show up already infected, right?

look at the data and look at what's happening in oklahoma right now and get an idea and what you'll find is probably 100 people may show up already infected. john, i know you always like to learn new things, a principle called paretto principle which means 20% of those infected are likely to generate most of the infection spread. 20 people out of 100 people. 20 people out of 100 people will be the biggest spreaders at a stadium like this. given all the different risk factors, they are likely to spread it now to 40 or 50 people each, okay, so what does that mean. after that event 800 to 1,000 new infections are likely to occur as a result of an event like this and then what happened, those 800 to 1,000 people go back to their homes and their communities and they start to spread it even more. this is the anatomy of an outbreak. this is how these things occur so if you're one of those 1,000 people hand you think i have a 1

in 20 chance of being inexiffed. these are just calculations. no one can guarantee or say how it's going to unfold for sure and now you get a better sense of what risk really looks like in a situation like this. >> you're right. i like to learn new things. the gift of of this job is we get paid to learn but i don't like to learn things like that. you're talking 800 to 1,000 infections just based on data. let's hope in this case the data is wrong, but it normally usually is not. dr. gupta, appreciate your insights. we'll continue to track this has we go forward. for us a break and as we go to break we want to show you some of the juneteenth celebrations around the country. this is brooklyn. ♪ >> live pictures in atlanta as well. it's juneteenth 2020. we'll be back in a moment. my name is trisha. i'm 70 and i live in mill valley, california. my biggest passion is gardening. i love to be outdoors. i have jaybirds that come when i call.

not mine. if you show up in tulsa, it will be a different situation. >> reporter: i'm here in tulsa to see thousands of people to celebrate this holiday, to celebrate juneteenth, an event initially postponed until president trump decided to bring his rally to tulsa on this weekend, so now what we have here is an impromptu sort of celebration of juneteenth, and impromptu protest of president trump's presence and just this morning a new mural, a new black lives matter mural that we'll show you that has popped up just like it has popped up all over the country in response to these george floyd protests against police brutality. this is the same kind of mural that we saw outside of the white house in washington, d.c. there is now one here that was put up just this morning by activists as they were getting ready to set up, and it gives you a sense of the fact that they want this event to be a

celebration. that is what juneteenth is supposed to be about, but, on the other hand, we have a little bit down the way from here, we have president trump's supporters lining up about two days it early before his rally preparing to go in for what will be the largest indoor event that we have seen in this country since the start of this coronavirus pandemic. the city is bracing for these two events to be happening simultaneously. it is not clear how this is all going to go down. there's a sense here among the organizers of this particular event that i am at right now, that they have been urging people to keep it peaceful. the they have a stand set up for children, and they are preparing for this to be a different kind of celebration. we saw this morning the president at the white house putting out a statement for juneteenth that says juneteenth reminds us of both the unimaginable injustice of

slavery right-hand the incomparable joy that must have attended emancipation. it's a blight on our history and a celebration of our nation's unsurpassed ability to triumph over darkness. but john you read the tweet from the president this morning, and i suspect that that will be front and center in the minds of people coming out here on the streets today and tomorrow. one of the things that they were most upset about as i talked to people this week was the president's response to the protests, the way that he used pepper spray in front of the white house, and so i think you're going to see a lot of folks here expressing their displeasure with the latest tweet that he sent this morning and -- and his -- and his decision to come here to tulsa tomorrow. john. >> it will be a remarkable 24 to 48 hours in tulsa. abby philip, glad you're there to track it for us. thanks very much. i'm joined by the former u.s. congresswoman mia love, first black congresswoman elected to congress. great to see you this morning. as we celebrate juneteenth. the president. united states was supposed to

have his rally tonight and then he postponed it after it was brought to his attention that many people would find that to be offensive. now the president pits out this statement marking this important historical day. my question for you. you have some experience with the president, not all of it president. he doesn't get it sometimes. is the that because of who he is? is that because of who he's surrounded with, a predominantly white staff? what is your view on the president and i'm going to use the word sensitivity or lack thereof? >> well, you're asking me to get into the head of the president which is very difficult, but i can say this. i think that there is obviously a different tone between the tweets and the statement that was put out. the statement that the campaign put out celebrating and talking about juneteenth was the appropriate tone. the tweets not so much. i mean, i think what people really want is some leadership, somebody to come out and say, look, this is what happened. we need to educated america about juneteenth and why we

are -- why this is a celebration and why we need to remember what has happened, and the rally i think was appropriately turned to another day because i think that having a maga rally during that day was just not the right tone. if you're going to have a rally to actually just celebrate juneteenth and help people remember what that is about, then that's one thing, but if you're going to make it about yourself, then that was completely inappropriate. >> right, and, again, the scripted statement you're right paying tribute to the juneteenth is as well as anyone could have issued that statement, a welcome statement from the president of the united states. the question is sort of the sensitivity issues. i can just show you facebook which allows a lot of garbage to traffic on facebook has decided to take down a trump campaign ad that has a symbol, the reason it's taking it down is because that symbol tracks very close to a symbol used by the nazis, upside down triangle, used by

the nazis in concentration camp uniforms. facebook taking this down saying it violates its poll tis about hate and symbols that could signal hate to people. at the same time, congresswoman, the highest ranking woman i believe at the state department at least on the leadership team, a woman who also worked in the white house, now announcing that she is resigning, and this is mary elizabeth taylor from her resignation letter. the president's comments and actions surrounding racial injustice and black americans shut sharply against my core values and convictions. i must follow the dictates of my conscience and resign as assistant secretary of state for legislative affairs. what does that tell you, mary elizabeth taylor worked on capitol hill for a while, very well regarded in the senate. very well regarded when she worked in the trump white house helping to recruit people into the government and she essentially says i can't go to work anymore. >> that's unfortunate. i don't know what has transpired there, but obviously i've had some frustrations with a lot of

the statements and have pushed back against a lot of the statements. the problem that i have mainly with the white house and the president is personality and the fact that we cannot unite america by driving a wedge, continuing to drive a wedge. have you to remove that wedge, expose what is happening in this country and fix the problem, and when you put out statements that alienate americans, black americans, that's not uniting a country. that's not bringing us together. that's not saying hey, we're all americans and we need to remember the injustices so that we can fix them. >> so help me with this one. you do have a history here. after -- i'm going to play this for our viewers. after you lost your seat, you had some said some things i will say not terribly favorable and you raised concerns about the president. you lost your seat and you remember it better than most. this is how the president put it. >> mia love gave me no love and she lost. too bad, sorry about that, mia.

>> it's clear from watching he was not sorry about that it, and i ask you in the context not to bring it up to be gratuitous but in the context of this, the president telling politika in an interview today he wants republican loyalty in this election year because he's starting to see people. if they are going not going to embrace, they will lose. i have a very strong base. when the president draws this line, what goes through your mind? >> well, is first of all, let me just say i have no regrets with doing my job in terms of calling the president out when he needed to be called out and supporting him on certain issues and policy issues that i felt was important for america and certainly good for my district. i have no regrets. i'm very comfortable in my skin and nothing that he says will be able to change the person that my parents have raised to be --

to be strong, to be comfortable a and to do the right thing. make sure that i'm an example to my children, to my country. history will decide what they want to tell about me based on my, as, and so what the president says has no bearing on me, but i do -- i don't believe that the election was lost because the president -- because i was not 100% for the president on certain issues, and i -- i believe that these -- these senators have a responsibility to their state. they have to remember that they don't stand behind the president. the president really should stand beside or behind them because they are the legislative branch. it is their job to represent people, not to represent washington. let me say this again. the job of the senators is to represent their people and not the president, and the president should stand behind these legislators and help them represent their people. >> mia love, appreciate your

insights, especially on this important day. thank you very much. >> thank you, john. >> thank you. up next, court proceedings move forward today for the former atlanta police officer charged in the killing of rayshard brooks. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ and get way more.ith wso you can bring yours vision to life and save in more ways than one. for small prices, you can build big dreams. spend less, get way more. shop everything home at wayfair today. pete davidson is "twell, dad's still dead.d". i want to become a real tattoo artist.

attorneys for the former atlanta police officer garrett rolfe are due in court in just a few minutes. rolfe waived his right to attend this first hearing in person and faces 11 charges, including felony murder, that, of course, from the killing of rayshard brooks one week ago. cnn's diane gallagher is in atlanta tracking this case. what do we expect today? >> reporter: yeah, john, we're actually going to be walking into that courtroom in just a few moments to be able to observe what those attorneys may bring to the table with this judge. it's a first appearance felony for many people, so rolfe right now is number 12 on the list, we're told. he was moved last night from the fulton county jail to another metro atlanta jail we're told by sources for security purposes. initially we thought he might be appearing by video. it's a zoom court hearing, but it morning we were told by the

magistrate court justice that that would not be happening. so, again, this is just this first appearance that he has waived appearing. his attorneys are going to be here. now you mentioned the charges. he faces 11 different counts, the most serious, of course, that felony murder charge. that does carry a penalty of up to the death penalty if convicted. that's something that the district attorney says right now it's not on the table for him. >> well, i think it's clear that we're not asking for the death penalty. we simply cited that because statutorily that is one of the possible sentences, but we're not seeking the death penalty. i don't think anyone rationally expect that had we would ask for the death penalty in this case. >> and, of course, it can also carry sentence of up to life in prison. john, the attorneys for the former officer who was fired after shooting and killing rayshard brooks one week ago today they said they are -- their client is going to be

vindicated, that they plan a vigorous defense and they see that laid out today and the coming days on what they do is they have sent this note out that you'll hear more today on how it is that they defend their clients so we should find more out move hopefully in the next hour to hour here in atlanta. john. >> diane gallagher heading into that courthouse, the hearing due to begin 25 minutes from now. here in washington the trump administration trying to block the release of the blockbuster book by the former national security adviser john bolton. at university of phoenix, we know you're always there for them. that's why our advisors are always here for you. learn more at phoenix.edu. i need all the breaks, that i can get.

today the trump administration and john bolton are facing off in court. bolton's lawyers filing a motion late last night asking a federal judge to dismiss the justice department's attempt to keep the bolton book off the shelves and to seize its profits. legal battle over the book might seem pretty moot, right? much of what bolton wrote already public. evan, let me start with you. how do we expect this to play out in court and are we expecting to hear today or are they going to argue and then we'll hear from a judge? >> we may well hear from the judge where he's leaning, john, but he has a few days to decide this. obviously the book is many could out on tuesday, but as john

bolton argues and husband lawyers argue in the papers filed last night this is already a fait accompli. the book is distributed. it's all over the world, and for this judge to order that the -- that the book not be published on tuesday would mean that they would have to try to pull the book from the shelves in europe, have -- have it taken off trucks that are operated by amazon, being delivered by amazon, so what we expect to hear a lot of is exactly why the harm here believes from publishing this information is irremember rabble. why should this information not be public, and, of course, john bolton is arguing that a lot of this is about embarrassment for the president. they are trying to save the president from some of the embarrassment of the details that are in this book, and as you pointed out a lot of this has already been made public by virtue of reviews and by the

fact that journalists all over the country already have copies of it. >> right. and so, josh, as the president's team pushes back, the president has been tweeting and said, a, john bolton is breaking the law. there's no evidence that john bolton is break the law. we'll let the courts decide that. zero evidence on the table and say john bolton is lying. president trump calls himself a very stable genius. he says he hires all the best people. his former chief of staff nick mulvaney say the reason books like this comes out is the president does just the opposite. listen. >> i'm not going to say they are liars. i'm going to say they are wrong, and if there was one criticism that i would level against the president is that he didn't hire very well. he did not have experience at running government and didn't know how to put together a team that could work well with him. the military personalities just not the type that works well with donald trump. >> that's the problem here, the president didn't hire very well? >> well, at one point the

president hired nick mulvaney that he held at the same time. the other point i would make is the president has a number of former advisers, jim mattis, jim kelly, rex tillerson, now john bolton who have made pretty remarkable comments about him, pretty remarkable in any administration but in times that bolton has said, that he's uncompetent and the unfit for office and we haven't seen that before. his former aides, jeff sessions, tillerson to kelly to mattis are either dumb as a rock or were never fit for the job or burned down and in critical terms we haven't seen from other presidents. there's sharp break-ups here, horrible break-ups between the president and some of the folks who he entrusted to top positions in the government. >> right. john bolt op, we used to put in the same camp, not that they agree, used to put in the neo-con tougher lines when it comes to russia, puts john bolton in the same camp as mike

pompeo, now secretary of state. the john bolton is spreading half truths and outright falsehoods. it's sad that his final role was that of traitor and violating its sacred trust with the people. look at this tweet from mike pompeo. the president will certainly like this. mike pompeo tweeting the perrium webster definition of traitor in the context of john bolton. evan, to you first. just to watch this, the knives are out. there's no other way to put it. >> right, and, look, this is not -- it's not a bug. this is a feature of the trump white house. we know, frankly, one of the interesting things about this book is that it confirms a lot of the reporting that we've had from josh and from jom of our -- the members of our white house team that really portray a group of people that are -- that spend all their day knifing each other. that's what they do. it's a little bit like kids in like the playground, you know.

they are going around and tattling on each other. they are trying to set up each other, and that's what comes across in this book. a lot of it is -- it seems like john bolton score-settling so that's one of the things that really you have to take away from this work that john bolton has now published. >> we'll watch the court hearing play out today, and we'll continue the conversation in the days ahead as i suspect the book continues to make its way around the town and the world. thank you so much. when we come back, we're going to talk more about the history of juneteenth, and as we go to break some live pictures here. this is a march from centennial park to the state capitol in the city of atlanta, a march, of course, to remember the history of juneteenth and also to remember the here and now including right there in the city of atlanta. hey allergy muddlers... achoo! ...do your sneezes turn heads? try zyrtec... ...it starts working hard at hour one... and works twice as hard when you take it again the next day. zyrtec muddle no more.

that is john wall on the left of your screen, point guard for the wizards. they are marching as part of a juneteenth rally here in washington, d.c., they are downtown near the arena where they play making their way to the museum of african-american history here in washington, d.c. and this one of a number of rallies under way across the country to commemorate juneteenth, a day that marks 155 years since the last remaining slaves were told here in the united states that they were free. this comes as it looks like a turning point in the country after weeks of unrest. let's talk more about the day historically and this year with greg carr at howard university.

thank you so much for being with us on this day. let me just start with your reflection. this is a day where most black americans reflect. now all americans i think have a better understanding of juneteenth which in and of itself is a good thing. but put it in the context for you of this moment as we see this reckoning as another police shooting of a black man in atlanta. just a few weeks in the rearview mirror from the george floyd shooting, many say murder, in minneapolis. put it in history in the context of today. >> sure. happy juneteenth, john. and we are in the moment. i think that we're in a horizon. we're seeing a transformation, multigenerational, multioperational, something we haven't really seen before. and when on memorial day we saw george floyd killed, the historical con converging is

amazing. juneteenth as we know comes out of 1865 as they received the surrender from the confederate general in gallonle investigation tgalveston and one year later they began the emancipation celebrations. this is just one of many. they are usually august in the caribbean, january 1 which marks the emancipation proclamation in the north prior to the end of the civil war. and as we come forward to 2020, what we are seeing is this country is engaged in the fundamental question it continues to return to. if this is going to be a truly plural society, will we rewrite the narrative of that society to reflect the varying experiences of the people in that society. and for our people of african decent, juneteenth is more important than july 4th. >> and do you believe in that important context, and thank you

for sharing it, codo you believ the rewriting will happen? i can show you a man where a numbmap oig where a number of cities and states are rewriting police tactics, and that is just one tiny piece of what needs to be necessary. but it is action and it is relatively quick action. are you convinced that enough pen will be put to paper if you will on these issues? >> well, i'm thoroughly convinced. if not this time, soon. we can't look at it out of context. there is a momentum that begins when the settler project begins itself and resistance begins. juneteenth, we find that while we mark june 19, 1865, there were nine regiments of black troops in texas already spreading the word prior to that. so what we see in 2020, we have reached a moment when all the

momentum of the previous strikes against the social order have emptied into one another and we're at a moment now where there won't be a majority of one race soon, and folks have decided that they want a different type of society. so certainly if we didn't reach this time, we will reach it ultimately i think. >> appreciate your history and i also appreciate your optimism. we'll continue this conversation another day. happy juneteenth to you as well. this sunday is of course father's day. a great time to catch up with our hero sheldon smith who for a decade helps teach parenting and life skills to young african-american fathers in chicago who want to be better dads. >> the message i'm trying to spread is that black fathers are important. when businesses were closing and layoffs, we wanted to make sure that our fathers nye that we were there for them. >> how many boxes of food you need? >> like one box. >> we'll give you two. >> the young men in our program have beautiful hearts and they

are volunteering their time so that they can be better fathers. and right now, we're talking about the injustices in america that need to be changed. we have to continue to believe and work together and not make it about when a death occurs that this is a time that we need to stand up. right now as a country, as a nation, we have an opportunity to change and show the word what we're really made of. once you invest, build and believe, you bring about a different solution. >> thank you so much. >> to see the full story, go to cnnheroes.com. we'll be right back. ♪ (vo) love. it's what we've always said makes subaru, subaru. and right now, love is more important than ever. in response to covid-19,
