planned for june 19th after widespread outcry. black lives matter protesters gathered across the united states on friday to commemorate the end of slavery the president's choice of this day for a campaign rally sparked a huge backlash so too did the location tulsa oklahoma is the site of the worst incident of racist violence in u.s. history in 1921 its greenwich district was a bustling hub of black owned businesses known as black wall street it was razed to the ground by white mopes some 300 black people were killed. and while our black men fought courageously to defend their homes and businesses to defend their families they were eventually so outnumbered and outgunned that white rioters broke through those barriers and invaded the

greenwood district and the massacre had begun. 99 years later many tulsa residents are still affected by racism they say donald trump is not welcome 2. but the rally will take place only on saturday and there is little hope here that it will contribute to unity and healing. not far from the greenwood district trump supporters have been camped out for days and foundations more expected to arrive on saturday. black lives matter protesters have also planned the demonstration and fearing the potential for violence the president himself has tweeted a warning to anti racism protesters traveling to told. you will not be treated

like you have been in new york seattle or minneapolis it will be a much different scene. well day w. correspondent stephens you muncie's on this story for us in tulsa he described the atmosphere there ahead of saturday's properly well i would say the situation. and the atmosphere is tense not right here right behind me as you heard in the piece this is the iconic and. more than i call his story kareen with district here we are in greenwood avenue here and. nobody expects that anything will happen in terms of violence violent protests or any violence whatsoever today or tomorrow however this is 2 miles down the road in downtown this is a different picture there of fears even of those folks here are fairly fairly adamant about the problem this really represents for told there will be

a massive security forces roaming around here too you don't see them there in plain clothes but there is a lot of security presence here so for tomorrow no really good expectations stefan i'm interested to know what has the campaign said about the coincidence of the timing and location of the rally. well 1st of all they didn't say anything 2nd and so was that they chose arklow mine specifically tulsa because the governor and the mayor here did such a great job fighting covert 19 in the coronavirus doesn't ring really true because oklahoma's numbers in the coronavirus crisis are actually up actually in tulsa itself numbers are also of doubled actually by the day most and so that can't really be the reason the real reason is a political one the president wants to have a strong showing for starting and restarting or triggering his campaign and he

thought of the home are a solidly red state and thoughts is a good place for that of course there's an insensitivity. he was not very sensitive pictures of taking this state. that he everybody agrees on doesn't make him any more friends if he had any at all here in this community stephanie mentioned the other wrinkle to this story it's kind of it 19 what has the campaign said about their advice what what are they going to do what i got to cite a rally was to keep them safe. you know there's 19000 people expected to be actually feeling the arena tomorrow and that the advice for those people as well as the advice for all. trump ians or trump followers or people who want to be outside is where a mask at their campaign will hand out mass you sense and it ties or and sign a waiver that you will not sue the president or the campaign in case you get sick

and maybe worse is happening to us to that so you can see that sounds maybe a little bit a silly but there is tons of people there's tons of people who are actually saying you know that's enough for me i'm going to go there in there one way or another there's a lot of people who don't even believe in covert 90 not this crowd here but the crowd downtown. where the for tomorrow. stephan same ones in tulsa thanks so much. well a you ladies have concluded a virtual summit to do by plan to help the bloke emerge from the coronavirus crisis the video conference is the 1st step in what are expected to be difficult negotiations about i proposed 750000000000 euros recovery fund now the visions remain of the fund size and such things as who will pay and how the money should be spread. one last quick hello from the french president some of the new britain and
