cheney and. this is news coming to you live from berlin an independent investigation into the as strike that killed children in yemen that's what the united nations is calling for opted least twenty nine children died when this school box was struck the saudi led military coalition says it was targeting rebels is a justified operation and also coming up to these columns you believe rockets and one time low against the dollar and euro and then forms even claudell off to u.s. president donald trump says he'll double out of its own. and thousands of

holidaymakers our next i'm going nowhere as ryan air time with his book of job at europe's biggest budget ad i got lost in the next sixty minutes the camp question x. and dreams go up in flames as more refugees arrive in spain we look at the kids existence they often face on spanish soil and warmer speaking of those do grand wizard of the ku klux klan that made it to god by selling shots we're going to for a while treat us back a. bit and director spike lee is back with a tense but often funny thing about the ku klux klan. band play. calling a very warm welcome to you i'm on the. the united nations is calling for

a prompt and independent investigation into an attack in yemen in which a police twenty nine children were killed the airstrike by the saudi led military alliance hit a school bus apparently taken pupils to summer camp a saudi spokesman says it was part of legitimate military action in its battle against who see rebels in yemen but the attackers come in for strong international criticism. this is yemen doctors desperately fighting for the lives of children the school bus hit by an aerial strike. eyewitnesses say that they were on their way to a school summer camp. where. the devastation of the blasts showing just how powerful the strike was awful a lot about what's the stroke the attack happened in the middle of the market and was aimed at the bus full of children. and our shops were open and people were

going about their daily lives on many of those who died were just local kids and shop owners. who's responsible the saudi arabian led coalition the coalition has been fighting hooty rebels on behalf of the yemeni government since two thousand and fifteen in a deadly proxy war the rebels are being backed by iran both saudi and iran and vying for power and influence not only yemen but across the middle east this conflict has been unrelenting for civilians who are often caught in the middle even rights organizations say yemen has become the world's largest humanitarian crisis and peace is no way in sight that according to the united nations over ten thousand people have already died with over two million people displaced. last week the u.n. announced that new peace talks will be held between those involved in the conflict these are likely to begin before september meanwhile the fighting continues. if we know. who is the united nations humanitarian coordinator for yemen and we saw

very distressing pictures from this attack yesterday the u.n. is calling for an independent and prompt investigation into this asteroid but will there be actually any consequences. what happened just today in northern yemen was a tragedy scores of innocent children were killed and tens more were injured this is why the united nations is calling for an independent prompt and transparent investigation so that we can establish the facts clearly of what happened yesterday and then appropriate actions can be taken. not these even before the fighting broke out in two thousand and fifteen gallon was already on the poorest countries in the arab people especially children have been suffering intensely tell something about the situation there now. twenty two million people innocent civilians require some form of humanitarian assistance or protection in order to survive

that's recorder's of the entire population there is no other country in the world for three quarters of everyone who lives in that treat needs humanitarian assistance this is why the united nations curates rice is what is happening in yemen as the worst most severe humanitarian crisis locally it's also why humanitarian everywhere are demanding insisting that all of the parties start political negotiations to end hostilities said enough is enough the war has to stop and what are the chances of ending hostilities the un has already described yemen as saying it's on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe are you hopeful about the future and that a compromise can be found to bring peace to the region. a compromise has to be found right now eight and a half million eight mini's have no idea where they will get their next meal ten million more game in the creek and conditions if hostilities don't stop by the end

of the year and this is why the peace talks how to succeed this prices was created by the or it can only be solved if the door stops. liza drongo from the united nations humanitarian coordinator for yemen thank you very much for talking to. let me bring you up to fit some other stories making news around the world in canada four people have been killed in a shooting in the eastern city of fredericton two of them were police offices police have confirmed they have one suspect in custody warning people to avoid the area the circumstances of the shooting are still not clear aid agencies are warning of the potentially catastrophic effect of a heatwave on north korean crops they say a full blown food security crisis is threatening the oxidative country the population already faces a food shortages and international sanctions and reports suggest malnutrition among children could bust and. u.s.

authorities say a fifty one year old man has been arrested on suspicion of setting a massive wildfire known as the holy fire in southern california orange county forest faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted and will be formally charged they did today the fire has displaced some twenty thousand people. gemini's threatened to deport a convicted nine eleven accomplice to his native morocco a few weeks before the formal end of his sentence in november. has been in jail since two thousand and three after being convicted of assisting members of the so-called terrorist cell which planned the nine eleven attacks on the united states prosecutors want to out of the country if he tries to get back in arrest him. now chief political editor is following this story for us and she joins me now in

the studio with. this man has been convicted of being an accessory in the nine eleven attacks is he not considered dangerous and when the killing still is he's also described as somebody who didn't move an inch from his extremist islamist convictions even during more than a decade behind prison walls here in germany here in germany he's known pretty much as the face of terrorism when this cell was detected here in germany that of course was a big shock also to the germans here who really didn't believe that this was possible and this is a bit more about what rules. played in in the nine eleven attacks where you studied engineering in hamburg he also actually stay with a german family you've been completely shocked to learn that he became a terrorists was seen as somebody who directly helped those pilots that crashed into the world trade center and that's also what in the end led to his conviction

for those murders of those people who were on board the plane there was no legal link at least established between victims of the nine eleven attacks and why have german prosecutors decided to release him ahead office full sentence for serving his full sentence of fifteen years is coming to a close. because behave behave pretty well in prison that would have been. november this is being pushed forward under the condition that she would then be deported directly to morocco. so we don't seem to want to see is him actually being set free in germany and leaving the german justice system to then potentially enter the german social security system that would also of course spark political debate here and many so a keen interest to get rid of him the big question now is whether iraq will actually take him back and what are the chances that moral code will take him back well it would be rather surprising for demo parties to come forward if they didn't

feel they have established enough of a report where they will start to actually make this happen. the arabic service here of deutsche about it has been able to really get an official statement to that effect so this is not a done deal as far as we've heard from moroccan officials and this could still get interesting and certainly would be a signal to other people in germany who are potentially criminals but also the question of what to do with people who potentially endangered security in germany when they can be sent back that always depends on the state would have to take them back right. political editor thank you for a shift with eighty seven refugees on board has docked in spain off to being turned away by italy and malta a spanish aid group big to the migrants of the coast of libya for those on board the most has a despotic degeneracy is over but is

a correspondent norman siegel reports from the town of leper of refugees life in spain is often precarious. nothing is left of i.p.c. baby's heart ache or fine journey nine days living in this much of. in twenty fourteen sipek came to spain from ivory coast to find work he ended up in this slum near the town of libya on the loose along with up to one thousand dollars fires occur frequently due to the flammable building materials gas canisters and forty degree celsius heat. you know. many. long or be looking for a. dream of a better life in europe has become a nightmare he has no residence permit and now he has no home. he can only work

illegally on one of the many fruit and vegetable plantations. you know you don't have no money. you know. his friend. is in the same position except he's a newcomer in spain having recently arrived from senegal. he lives in this hot. he says the routes taken by refugees to europe are always changing currently entering europe via the western mediterranean seems to be the safest. route from libya to italy has lots of problems it's almost like a war you can get killed so now many of us are coming to spain through morocco. but spain's new government is taking a lenient stance with migrants but the conservative opposition is in disagreement

and the spaniards are worried. because how many immigrants could cause us problems that's just how it is. spain is a country with high unemployment. there's just not enough jobs for so many people. but one of the spaniards see things differently until you know how bad volunteers for an aid organization and supports migrants like i do any way he can. he helps up to plant vegetables and takes care of red tape antonio sees the refugees as an economic factor the plantations in the region couldn't get by without them. thanks to these people many others are getting rich. the immigrants live off what little money they can earn so they're cheap labor. but. they're not going to work the problem and they have to

put up with everything and never complain. i do see the bay wants people to know what's really happening in europe. but he's not ready to give up on his dream of a better life. a move. now i'm living it sometimes gets. offered to help myself. you know. what my future art will be to go. eventually once he saved enough money to be intends to return to ivory coast my son needs me he says all of africa needs us but that's in the future right now he's got to figure out where he can sleep tonight christophe joins me now and if you want to

travel or drive as possibly not the want to take it is a friday of travel misery and ryanair pilots have begun a coordinated twenty four as they demand higher salaries and better working conditions that's led to the cancellation of four hundred out of twenty four hundred scheduled flights affecting more than seventy thousand passengers tensions between turkey and the united states are set to increase after the u.s. president donald trump used his favorite medium tweeting that tariffs on turkish elite aluminum and steel imports will be doubled to twenty and fifty percent respectively you know instant send the lira plummeting against the dollar and the euro with turkey's currency hitting an all time low ties between ankara and washington have been strained of the jailing of an american pastor a turkish president out of one having for a long time relied on impressive growth figures said today his country would not lose this economic war turkey's economic boom was fueled by government

spending but the upswing has come to an end for president at a one the fault lies with western countries which he says are waging an economic war against. relations with the us or especially. that's why he's determined to forge better economic ties with countries such as china or russia. what's riding to the problem is that even many turks are fleeing the lira for the relative safety of dollars or euros. despite one's desperate plea for them to exchange other currencies into lira to try and stabilize the national currency markets are losing patience and that's taking its toll the lira has been sliding since the beginning of the year losing thirty nine percent of its value since january that stoking inflation which recently hit sixteen percent and the crisis also reveals turkey's underlying shortcomings. it's the lack of production nothing else

these things wouldn't work without imports we need to carefully discuss an agriculture policy that will pave the way for exporting goods we can't do anything with industry or industries not well developed. this type of fluctuation caused this crisis in countries without a solid economy i lived in europe i didn't see anything like this i lived in germany for twelve years. as turkey's people try to come to grips with the crisis the government has no easy options when it comes to regaining the confidence the financial markets. or for the latest on this crisis let's bring in our markets man conrad who is in and frankfurt and correspondent daryn jones in istanbul daryn let me start with you have there been any reactions to donald trump's tweeting on doubling tariffs for turkish steel and aluminum. well know nothing yet but it certainly phil phil fits in with the

narrative we've been hearing from the turkish president today he's been talking about what he describes as a western conspiracies to undermine turkey for the exchange rate he talks is all of these foreign enemies which he promised to defeat and this announcement by the u.s. donald trump of new sanctions tariffs against turkey will fit in to walk the earth one claimed his is a conspiracy by western powers to oust him from power he said that two years ago a military coup failed to remove him now he says that the same powers are trying to remove him through the exchange right now conrad in frankfurt over do you target the turkish currency the lira hits an all time low today against the dollar and the euro markets across the board are down now the lira we have to understand is not one of the leading turn seas of the world why are investors so worried. investors are worried that the european banks will be drawn into this you know banks from spain france and italy have given out loans to turkish businesses for up to one

hundred thirty five billion euros the exposure of german banks in turkey is twenty one billion and of course with the ongoing depreciation of the concerns are rising that many of those loans will not be paid back and of course with ed once government one never knows there's a lot of talk about potential capital controls here and also it's very unlikely that the government would be willing to cooperate with the international monetary fund eventually that's why the european central bank which is the major supervisor of the banking system in the eurozone is on high alert and investors all over europe are pulling out their investors investments out of turkey but also out of investments in european banks not dorrian back to you turkey's finance minister who is also president i want to add one son in law had a press conference earlier today explaining what he calls turkey's new economic model what does that entail. well that's

right and in fact it was a long power point presentation where he did seem to reach out to investors he talked about the importance of reining in relation he also talked about the importance of fiscal discipline and went home to develop the idea of developing human capital going forward and all of these things of what the investors have been wanting but the problem for the for the finance minister is there was very little detail those very little meters one analyst said it's all of talk and no content and the problem is that the situation better say is so critical they need action they need details of how these goals will be achieved and on top of that the message from the finance minister was undermined by foreign or who promised to continue rampant big spending more make a point checks and this totally undermined the message that the finance minister was giving the problem and the result is a plummeting currency or enjoins in istanbul and conrad burns and in frankfurt

thanks to both of you. severe weather has been hitting parts of france and read a story thank you very much christophe indeed in southern france about sixteen hundred people have been evacuated to escape flash floods caused by heavy rain the hardest hit region is where helicopters had seven hundred fifty people to safety yes more. flash floods reduced campsites to mud. it's something it became so it was here so the river swept right through it. rescue workers were supported by helicopters and evacuating campus in southern france. search teams including divers combed waters for german man who still reported missing it's feared he may have been swept away in his caravan the man was accompanying children at a campsite and they got the region which was hardest hit by the flooding. more than

one hundred children were evacuated from the site. it started raining when suddenly a flash flood came down from the hills everything's flooded a catastrophe. several people were hospitalized with hypothermia and minor injuries. as their suitcases we just have what we're wearing but the main thing is we're ok. the storms and heavy rains that caused the torrents erupted after weeks of blazing temperatures. german cycling great has been arrested in frankfurt on suspicion of sorting a sex it comes off the former tour de france winner appeared in court on the spanish island of majorca he was charged with breaking and entering the home office famous neighbor the german actor and director. orishas cycling achievements from

modern two thousand and twelve but it was found guilty of doping. now for more on this story i'm joined by chris harrington from. chris thank you so have you hear that you know it was the golden boy of joe cycling and things have just been going wrong for him lately. tell us about his latest episode well he's definitely on a downward spiral and this is his second arrest within a month and he was in germany in frankfurt specifically for one reason to attend rehab because this arrest you had mentioned with two is fica this assault on his neighbor he admitted to the press he had an issue with alcohol and was going to germany to seek help therapy and there was a clinic actually that has already had a reservation for him there was waiting for him a check in will he made a stop at this luxury hotel in frankfurt and according to all the reports it looks like there is a potentially will be some charges in the future as of right now he was only

arrested and he had to stay overnight in a holding cell because he was really intoxicated and drunk but one thing is for certain that there was a victim involved an escort that he allegedly choked until she blacked out so that's what we know now and it's being investigated as we speak so it just doesn't look good for a young old rich i mean can you do this from the tour de france back in one thousand nine hundred seventy he was such an he would stop then and beat the competition and as an underdog when did this. thing we had just a touch base on that you're right he was only twenty three years old when he won the tour de france ok in ninety seven he was a fourth youngest person to do so and he was responsible for the cycling boom here in germany you know but this also the year after he won one thousand nine hundred eight this tour was coined the tour of dope it so it was during this doping scandal area he had it picked up in two thousand and two where he tested positive for ecstasy a recreational drug you know and then in two thousand and six he was banned altogether

for doping which later we found out was doping in two thousand and seven he retired from the sport but you know all that all it's starting potentially his rival lance armstrong was a big rival of him and we all know what happened with lance armstrong so it looked like the doping in conjunction with recreational drugs it looks like he has an issue with substance abuse i think that's clear because he made it clear to the press. also it looks like he's a long way away from recovery at this point now you said he was in frankfurt to get some help for his problems but obviously things haven't gone to plan so what's next for him chris you know i think he's going to have to do some one would say soul searching you know look for those close to him because when you factor in the he's twenty three years old he has the entire country admiring him he is as inflated ego and it just looks like he had problems moving from the limelight you know some would suggest that maybe he looks for outside influence to give him this feeling

but one thing is odd it also find out he's a father and he had see these children since easter so this was a condition for him to be allowed to see his children attending rehab so it looks like he's taking steps back in that area he's going to need some real friends close personal friends who care about him is that get him back on track after i'm pulling for him yeah i hope says very similar the best of course chris huntington from us post as thank you so much for me on that story you're watching the deputy is coming up ahead. a ukrainian film director is near death on a hunger strike the russians really a phone call from the french president of. make a difference. that's of all coming up shortly a was indeed of the news from but they.

a number of journalists taken into custody this week in what critics said was a crackdown on press freedom his apartment was also assessed on the journalists have also been freed but the editor of a popular new sides has reportedly been charged with criminal negligence. not the case of ukrainian filmmaker and kremlin critic sense all he's been. in on a hunger strike for almost three months in a russian prison and they are now concerned he may be yet his death french president in london mccraw discussed his feet with russia's vladimir putin on the phone today putin is said to have promised to respond to proposals by mcchrystal to find a humanitarian solution to the situation earlier russia released photos of cents all suggesting he was fine social media posts by send sounds family and lawyer

quotes the filmmaker as saying the end is now since all of this is the charges against him up on the ticket in two thousand and fifteen a russian court sentenced him to twenty years for planting terrorist attacks on the crimean peninsula. for more on accent and his imprisonment in russia joining me now from the ukrainian capital kiev is correspondent david stern and promotes go by the. welcome to both of you your litany start with you what can you tell us about sense of health we're getting conflicting reports with some reports even saying you're not live that long . how america yes our colleagues from the w.'s russian service spoke to all the x. insults lawyer dmitri didn't say who met since off since all for the last time three days ago mr dss objects in software uses a mix of drugs just to maintain consciousness even though he says cents off wasn't

a good physical condition was critical since off is currently imprisoned in the lobby. a place near the north pole and as the weather conditions of there have been a very hot he'd have had has obviously been very bad for us and solves chronic heart disease as well as for his kidney and liver and david what are you hearing in ukraine sense of condition. well obviously we're getting different reports on one hand we do have these photos that have been published recently or just in the last twenty four hours these were posted on the facebook page of the human rights all been so and it shows him standing up obviously that's a good sign but there are great concerns we're hearing from his lawyers from his family as you just said they say the end is near what i can say is there is a great deal of concern about his condition here he is very much a symbol of ukraine's ongoing struggle against what they say is russian aggression

here the annexation of crimea and the russian backed separatists in the east of the country and david he's serving as i mentioned a twenty year sentence for alleged terrorist attacks in crimea phil phil says his imprisonment is politically motivated send solve a political threat to the kremlin in any way. well that's obviously a question that can only answered within the crowd the walls of the kremlin the view here is that the kremlin does see him as a threat he has been he is very outspoken he's a ukrainian who kept the citizenship after the annexation but he's also one of the ukrainians and he and others say sixty four other people who are have been imprisoned for political reasons. many of them from crimea and are in fact crimean tars. and you need there's been a lot of high profile support for send some scores including celebrities and western governments say the french president in london mccrone with again but not

to me putin will that pressure have any bearing on this case do you think. well look at it as we're just heard from a david finch office demanding the liberation of all ukrainian political prisoners in russia and since often tends to take it to the bitter end if i have to die thing i have and i have to die she says but despite of the international pressure i don't think i don't think moscow would ever make such a huge concession to mr since off and in russia there are plenty of other petitions asking for a pardon less than the one percent of the titians are actually concede that the russian clemency commission works very very practically which means officials usually find formal reasons to refuse almost every plea for pardon on the other hand the issue is now being discussed on a very very high level so other experts assume that the telephone call with of the french president tomorrow later today could help one possible outcome it could be

the extradition of lexan saw from russia to france into a french prison which is what improves and solves conditions of detention but that is just speculation at this point we have to wait and see what is the result of the phone call between putin and mccrone will be today later. the euro shatter in moscow and david stern in kiev thank you both very much for your reporting and that interview was recorded early on as you heard you talk about a telephone conversation between mccraw and putin that has taken place and mccraw asked him for for humanitarian solution to the problem and putin said he would respond to those proposals ok moving on now and a bit of contradictory news from israel and the gaza strip this week has seen more escalation in the region with hamas firing dockets into israel and israel attacking hamas' positions at the same time secret and long term cease fire negotiations have also been taking place alongside the recent violence war and peace seem to be close

at hand at the same time. as people run in a panic iraq at launch from gaza lands. right next to a children's playground in israel these are mobile videos from step out this week israeli city is one of the main targets of rockets from gaza the likes of which israel hasn't experienced for a long time. yet at their most wednesday night it was really crazy there were more than one hundred fifty rockets were in the bunker i was shaking with fear. one hundred. at six o'clock in the evening the first rockets are launched from gaza there are. the projectiles are met by israeli's military targeting hamas positions in the gaza strip and intercepting the rockets mid-air. on the israeli side several are injured

. in gaza three people die. this violence is happening in the middle of sensitive negotiations for weeks the u.n. and egypt have been trying to broker a deal a must as leadership were meeting this week to discuss the negotiations. how to promise has discussed its proposals such as a national unification a ceasefire and how the people of gaza can live in peace and security with its delegation from kyra. the goal a permanent truce hamas which runs gaza would cease its attacks on israel and return israel would ease the blockade that is strip people in gaza of livelihoods. the proposed agreement would encourage the building of infrastructure creating more jobs and allowing for the freedom of movement until recently unthinkable. and israeli security expert confirms that the government is participating in talks but

he's skeptical. yes it's actually being negotiated but only if hamas feels it's in danger then they are ready to stop the fire for a certain amount of time that. on thursday hamas declared the attacks to be over but rockets continue to fly targeting israel. and the israeli air force one several hamas locations it's quite a different picture to the proposed peace being tentatively talked about on the sidelines. for many vets few g.'s and migrants the dream of a better future in europe remains just that a dream and when they end up being deported back to their home countries their problems a fall from nova that's their agenda initiative comes and its aims to have pretending refugees get back on their feet financially and professionally. the hunter

sure district of dakar is known as the fisherman's quarter my son the fall is one of them he grew up here together with his seven brothers and three sisters four of them now live in europe he's also been there in two thousand and six he travelled to spain in a boat. with a life is hard here everything's a struggle i was hungry and thirsty my family is poor that's why i risked my life to get to europe to help my family out of poverty in senegal it's just not possible one more before. but now some bo was deported now he's come to get some support at a migration center in dakar run by a german development agency known as g.r.i.z. it's part of a german government initiative to help returning migrants find work. but what somebody needs is money to start his own business. model or i'm a fisherman but i have to borrow my care from my father in exchange he keeps

a lot of my cash leaving me with too little if i had my own fishing gear i'd be able to get somewhere. else that would go the g.r.i.z. has been running the migration center since january in cooperation with senegal the youth employment agency thousands have already come here for advice the center offers support for starting a new business including finding sources of financing it also explains which pathways to germany are legal and which are not the g.i.c. has many other programs aimed at providing people with opportunities in their own country ok tional training and jobs in cooperation with senegal communes government agencies and chambers of commerce for money for cover if someone wants to succeed the first thought is i'm leaving and that's precisely where this center comes in and what we want to achieve the opportunities which. sure available here locally

are made visible because most of the people seeking advice are simply unaware of these opportunities and. senegal has a long tradition of migration some seventy percent of all families have relatives abroad and there's success is a motivator and it's at that is the high rate of unemployment in senegal so many decide to leave can migration centers make a difference the difference would be what kind of services that you make and how closely they are built within the national system so for example what kind of what kind of relationship you have with employment services with the states was it all done moving with. the training possibilities the closer the cooperation the greater the chance of six cents from a somebody prepares his net for the following morning the advisers at the migration center will recommend that he starts a co-operative together with his friends they will then refer them to sources of financial support. so. when i have the photo build

a house for my wife and children and then i'll be able to help my siblings because i know exactly how it feels to be dependent on others. you know somebody hopes that he'll then finally stand on his own two feet and in his own country. joins me now and many investors today were eyeing growth figures coming out of japan crystal that's right on radar the world's third largest economy posted solid growth in the second quarter it expanded by half a percent that's more than added lists had expected after a contraction at the beginning of the year and i while the economic outlook has improved u.s. japanese trade talks made little headway this week japan is hoping to win concessions on threatened us all of terrorists which could be detrimental to the industry if they came about. it looks like japan's economy has bounced back after a worrying dip in the first quarter of this year consumers are more confident and

are spending more in an atmosphere of strong job growth providing a boost to gross domestic product from my pull to june g.d.p. showed a half percent expansion that was significantly better than had been expected the external environment however could be troublesome for japan's economy. i'm a little boy our g.d.p. can be widely influenced by various external environments such as trade hostilities between the united states and china there are unstable and unsure factors so i cannot say for sure it will continue to grow. for good. deals so you know. u.s. president donald trump is pushing tokyo to sign a bilateral free trade agreement and threaten to impose higher tariffs on auto imports including those from japan that would hit the export sector of the world's third largest economy. now in the wave of china's billion dollar investments in

africa many small traders have come to the continent to set up shop low income households are hungry for cheap goods made in china but what looks like a win win proposition has its challenges yaquis reports. flashing fairy lights toys and electronic gadgets galore do you want to shop has it all for the last five years she and her husband have been running their store in cape ten's china town shopping center her business model is simple but effective me before but maybe shopping for men. is fine if i have been this is a thought i really fear. daisy one is one of an estimated one million chinese traders who've arrived in africa over the last decade. the influx was triggered by

growing chinese investment paired with unemployment back home. showing louis daisy's landlord of the co owner of the mall eve recognized the demand among cape town consumers i did talk with one local people can for this it. doesn't lie. to the oh you know something i got history chart. i've got the words i could buy one char one close i can come to china town so much prize. money i get really close to success speaks for itself since twenty ten with his partners opened three malls and cape town with a total of one hundred fifty independent stores. but the demand for cheap goods made in china is not limited to the big cities a four hour drive away from cape town is the small community of ladysmith its

chang young young invested in c.c.t.v. cameras for security for him like many chinese traders the promise of good business in south africa still outweighs the risk. of. american director spike lee is back with a shock comedy about the white supremacist group the ku klux klan the film school black klansman and it takes place in the one nine hundred seventy s. but references to days in artist states are hard to miss here's a scene portraying former king. david. we are privileged. to be among white men. and white women. such as yourselves

rallies in charlottesville virginia that ended in horrible violence and that trump basically refused to condemn the king on this latest film the color of black klansman is actually based on true story it is based on the memoirs of ron stallworth's he is a black to tech tip who in the one nine hundred seventy s. infiltrated the k.k.k. by pretending to be a white racist on the telephone now in face to face meetings with the klan of course he had to send a white officer in his stead here's another look at black klansman. this is wrong stahl called who am i speaking of is david duke grand wizard of the ku klux klan that they do god last time i checked what i do for well since you asked i hate blacks i hate jews mexicans and irish italians and chinese

but my mouth to god's ears i really hate those black brats and anyone else really that doesn't have pure white area and blood running through their veins i'm not even talking to their white american blessed white america for the real ron stallworth this film is highly relevant today. you've been subjugated to me very similar to what was happening with. this activity never goes underground. a lot of people say that the plane was did they play is not relevant the claim is always relevant always has and always will be and whether you call yourself by claiming the nazis is to live you have you seen my share an ideology or beliefs about race and these guys will decide the poor for right now in part because of who we have long felt. for director spike lee that relevance was a very deliberate choice. we now want to be period piece we want people to walk out of the theater understand that history teaches so and we. will see

in a very difficult time not only america but the world but he could have the film also makes a strong plea against complacency by contrasting the initial attitudes of the two undercover cops i'm risking my life to prevent someone that's from money a couple six hundred far this is the job for a problem that's my problem for you it's a crusade for me it's a job. it's not personal no should it be why haven't you bought into this why should i because you're jewish brother the so-called chosen people you've been passing for a wasp white anglo-saxon protestant cherry pie hot white boy. it's what some light skinned black folks do they pass for white doesn't that hatred you've been hearing the klan say does not piss you off course it does and why you act like you ain't got skin in the game brother ricky that's my business to business. some great actors there you've got tougher grace nailing the part of

david duke the smiling modern face of the clan adam driver as the jewish detective and john david washington as the lead he by the way is the son of denzel washington and this is not his first spike lee joint he actually was in malcolm x. as a little boy with his dad in the lead ok so even the film seems to have an element of comedy but the subject is they see it is so what is spike lee's message in the film i think his message is the same one that the real life officer ron stallworth wrote in his memoirs which basically he says i'm going to paraphrase if he has a black guy with the help of some decent white folks and some decent jewish folks managed to show white racists for the idiots that they are and triumph over them in that way then what could the country do if everyone can begetter but the talking about trying to divisions within american society in fit my lowest fear is talking about his latest documentary what's that about right like spike lee michael moore

is of course a very political filmmaker whose movies are meant as a wake up call his new film is called fahrenheit eleven nine it's his attack on donald trump and how he got elected now along the way michael moore looks at hate groups at this he meets with victims of the school shooting this february and parklands florida and more continues to do what he does best which is painting broad polemical strong as acts of violence in this country like never seen. in the trailer moore says that trump will be the last president of the us i don't think he quite believes that himself but he definitely knows what he has to say to get people's blood boiling and to sell movie tickets this is an extreme look at an extreme situation and it's a movie that the american liberal america should say is going to eat up and the rest of the world i mean joe exactly and let's thank you very much david let's vania website absolutely that's a d w dot com slash culture thank you and it's over this is spike lee i'd love to
