trivializing the tragedy of others using the popular video platform to educate young people about history. i'm anthony how thanks for joining us we begin here in berlin where police are attempting to shut down a protest against germany's coronavirus restrictions by said the participants had failed to with face masks and were not following social distancing rules there the north or he's had initially banned the if heat of the health concerns but a court then overturned of that then saying the gathering could go ahead provided there were measures in place to prevent the spread of the virus now an estimated $20000.00 people turned out and many say they staying put. they came from all over germany to express their anger at the government's measures to tackle the

coroner virus pandemic for many the measures go too far because they believe there is no will then share. doesn't really show somalia i don't believe that as a pandemic i do seeing the disease exists but i do not think it's a pandemic that the low there fit with the un for according to the new definition of pandemic it is indeed a pandemic but while it has yet to spread from then on it has nothing to do with the danger posed failing to too many among the crowd refute any affiliation to defy our rights but a protests are supported by both conspiracy theories and rightly next term is something easily visible given the number of nationally splog chance and slogans. last. yes there are some german imperio flags but they're not forbidden this is just like the confederate flag in the us which isn't forbidden either even though it is no from the town and well this is

a discussion doesn't the sicily have to take place now. with the big. meanwhile hundreds of counter protesters gathered in other parts of belin most of them taking a stand against the far right. one of the conditions set by authorities to allow today's protest was that if demonstrators weren't wearing masks they should respect social distancing rules as most of those attending the so-called anti corona riley didn't comply to either to believe in police disbanded a protest early in the afternoon. on the streets of central berlin as well the 5 v.w. correspondent tom aspera thomas the situation has been in flux since the initial gathering what's happening there now where you are. while most of the old protesters have left right lease they're moving out of central where we were standing for the last few. as and where the situation was certainly tense in the often new and we clearly saw for example the police at least 5 or 6 times used

loudspeakers to tell people to leave to explain that the protests had been disbanded because people were not complying with social distancing grooved they were not wearing the mosques as they should have done because it was required to do so by the police and that as such people were obliged to to leave however now the situation is much calmer as you can probably see behind me police have also moved from the place where we were standing before although obviously not everyone has left according to police estimates there were around 18000 people he got here gathered in central but they were in other parts of the city such in problems as well police for example reported a burning container or they also mentioned that bottles were being thrown out and we also saw various demonstrators being detained that's the situation so far here in the center of berlin thomas he said police counted 18000 people before breaking up the protest what can you tell us though about these demonstrators. i can tell

you that it's a mixed bag of demonstrate they have very different opinions very different views very different goals as well if if there's one goal that maybe unites them all is the fact that they're against those coronavirus the restrictions they're against the way the government has handled them but apart from that you can clearly say that they have very different views there on taxes here there are far right extremist there are conspiracy theorists there are parents who say from the middle of germany's society from the middle class and simply want to stress their opinions on day views and stress that they oppose what the government is doing so you can clearly see a mixed bag a wide variety of people gathering but they're all against the way the government has been dealing with the coronavirus crisis on the way the government has been handing the pandemic. and just quickly tell us now that the protest has been disbanded does that strengthen the narrative of the state limiting the people's

essential russian protest. some people have indicated that that's precisely the case that they're here precisely to look for more freedoms to make sure they're respected on the government teat and that the fact that the local authorities tried and failed to bomb the protest initially that actually reinforces their idea that their freedoms are being affected and that's why they actually came to the streets for that such and one of the opinions that we've been hearing from people here in the center of. on the streets of berlin thomas sparrow thank you so much. well meanwhile in the united states huge crowds of marched for racial justice in washington d.c. the rally was held at the lincoln memorial where 57 years ago hundreds of thousands gathered to hear and to the king gave his i have a dream speech in which he pleaded for racial equality well the current activism comes after the police shooting of an african-american jack black one that has reignited tensions of the perceived police violence against people of color in the

because we demand civil rights leader al sharpton cast martin luther king's legacy as one of unfinished business. this dream is still alive you might have killed a dream ah but you can't kill the jury because truth crushed earth shall rise again. one clear theme was repeated over and over speakers encouraged everyone present to vote using the ballot box to make change happen to prevent us from voting and some sad news from the world of entertainment like path back to check with has died at the age of 43. international acclaim playing each other in the box office hit he passed away after a long and private battle with cancer. yes it is. before finding famous the regal black panther in the film adaptation of the marvel comic

and family by his side he was just 43. not a trend on the video sharing app ticked off at his outright some holocaust memorial groups video creators are posting clips in which they pretend to be victims of the nazi regime using makeup to display bruises and simulating starvation. auschwitz birkenau museum and memorial in poland has spoken out against the so-called holocaust challenge trained the museum which is the site of the former german concentration camp released a statement saying the videos could be hurtful and offensive and trivialized history. reporter joel doll really is here with more on this story joe what exactly are these 2 talk users doing well one perspective is that these 2 truck creators are insensitively using the holocaust as content in their videos in order to gain followers and fame but another perspective is that they are trying to empathize

with the victims but in a way that's causing intergenerational miscommunication we can have a look at some of these videos now. so as we can see in these clips the creators of basically acting as holocaust characters and they're recounting how they were captured by the nazis and died and some are using make up for fake bruises or their wearing striped prison inmate outfits or wearing yellow stars now this is all part of a much wider to talk trend called p.o.v. your point of view videos in which people basically take on characters from a 1st person perspective now i've seen a lot of these and i do feel that many are generally trying to convey a sense of tragedy and empathize with the victims but it's being done in a way that some people could see as disrespectful or self aggrandizing now the auschwitz birkenau museum has acknowledged that some of these create is we're trying to express personal memories but also that some were created not to

commemorate anyone but to become part of a wider trend and that they say is very offensive now the museum also said that none of these young people should be attacked or shamed that unfortunately is exactly what has happened we tried to reach out to a few of them to get their perspectives but many of deleted their accounts one has made a public statement saying that they didn't mean to offend anybody and what does tick-tock have to say about what tick tock says it is now blocking searches related to this so-called holocaust challenge but i think it would be a shame if they blocked all searches related to the holocaust because there's another perspective on this which is that tip top can also be used as a really powerful platform to educate young people and i'll give you a positive example brooke there is a high school student from florida and she has created hundreds of these short clips in which she explains facts from history and we can take a look now at one of her holocaust related videos. today i want to talk about

a little of my own heritage on my father's side he is czech and roma many bohemian grove are also sent to auschwitz where they were exterminated these 2 bohemian roma here were sent to auschwitz a lot of the bohemian rola culture was completely exterminated in fact the bohemian roman dialect is completely extinct here to other bohemian roma and the whole course was a cultural extermination that killed off so much jewish and roman culture and that can't be forgotten so that was brooke public or to talk creator she has more than $3500000.00 hearts which of the equivalent of likes on the platform of the comments of that video one user said that they didn't realize that the roma had been targeted alongside jews in the holocaust so we can see that although tick tock can be a place for narcissistic videos in the misguided misuse of history it can also be a really powerful platform to educate a whole new generation about the holocaust they don't believe reporter joel dover thank you. watching the news live from berlin coming up we look at the lives of
