numbers right that are down there monitor will have very crude oil peddlers using the phrase you're. our 2 part series the 3rd reich dog starts nov 12th on d w. this is d w news africa coming up on the program the power off. nigerians have taken to the streets forcing the government to act on day demand for police reform they've demonstrated how effectively the masses can be mobilized but when it's bringing change this is not the way to do what he was going to do while we were going to have the money people want to be here today as opposed to people that means out of these and you have as i do that it out yeah love that's not here but if somehow or other. and teaching school girls in togo how to spot signs of breast cancer

and cost on the message. hello i'm christine wonder it's good to have your company young nigerians protesting and he spread his he was back on the streets again today keeping the pressure in a campaign that has forced the government to disband and a tourist and you see it as in a raid on station to people power in africa's most populous nation nigeria's police say a new unit will replace the controversial special and tube robbery squad or saws which was dissolved following protests over accusations off which had a seat but the announcement of the new special weapons and text tactics team or squash has not calmed the anger on the streets as protesters continue to call for peace reforms. that was nigeria's

young people standing up to injustice incidents of police brutality have triggered days of nationwide protests forcing the government to act it is now disbanded the controversial saas police unit but human rights groups say up to 10 people have been killed after police opened fire at separate protests including this one in lagos protestors a question in the government's commitment to reform. the. protest of the shortcut to protest as i still didn't. foresee the size of the fundamental human rights if you are really serious about police reform if you're really serious. and it. is still seeing these forms of police misconduct. nigeria's police has ordered the release of all those arrested during the protests

and the presidency says it will investigate the alleged violations by saas and other police units but protesters are skeptical they don't trust the new police unit that is to replace saas and to keep up pressure. we're going to have ships that modern afternoon i'm not going to get caught me. they say they'll stay on the streets until they see real commitment to reform police. and i'm now joined by hero. he's been taking part in the demonstrations and he's actually joining me now from one of the protest sites. high figure so you are at a demonstration at a toll gate set us more about why bet specific location.

yes so you know i would suggest on this is i mean this is a. case of this is. one of the demonstrations at one of the demonstrations someone how did that cause that grant that the power of the people is strong and then the people in power what do you believe that's true right now do you believe that you guys raney have the power . to assess. the problem but in the long run budget cuts the lecture on. board and if you're going to report. we've seen young people like yourself turn out to demonstrate across the country what is this what is the symbolize you didn't

refer to the action but what is this symbolize. so. you're not trust. centers are not doesn't do anything until there's no one else. under surprise them just sort of i love that journey been understood. because i undertook this stuff as a bow when's the last request and this is because there's just the drug bust open and consumers. here. ok. thank you. and for more on this story and the process every scene of this movement or any of that we're seeing in nigeria i'm joined by did every is tomi oladipo at the table with me tom it's good to see you so we've just seen for gerry are they at a person who's quite right it's been days at the protests that have been coming out but just tell us more about how this protest has been coordinated it started as a movement on social media and now people on the streets yes it did start on social

media that's how 1st of all the news about these incidents of brutality police brutality was spread anyways a video going viral people then beginning to tell their own personal stories and people sort of rallied around each other using the internet using twitter and other forms of social media around the hash tag and saws and this is hash tag has been there for a few years but now i think this latest video i think was on the 3rd of october when it when it started being shed and it just spot people's emotions and they decided they were going to come out to the streets they've been crowd sourcing resources let's take a look at some tweets that just show a bit more of the of of what they've been doing. in terms of getting themselves together this tweet says people from our 2 lists over 600 nigerian lawyers have volunteered to be standby for arrested protesters so we're seeing people's

expertise being brought together by let's go to another tweet that says. that to and police brutality victims of police brutality in nigeria deserve to be properly acknowledged and compensated if you know or have been a victim of police brutality filiform and there's a link there here that's another element of trying to bring people together and let people tell their stories one final one quickly is. so the families coalition's bitcoin account has already has over $1000000.00 naira in donations already that's just under $3000.00 they've raised a lot of money $10.00. of thousands of dollars at the moment to keep this movement going ok so it's effectively coordinated as well it's a but who's leading the protesters that's the interesting thing about this there doesn't appear to be a leader or a group most kinds of protests of this nature in nigeria have been backed by a political party or a union or civil society this one has been organic and it's people coming together

they have acknowledged the support they've got from some of these prominent activist but they insist they don't want a leader but we see the margins for example of women taking leadership you see individuals in certain roles right but overall this seems to be a very open movement ok and one other thing tony is the nature of these demonstrations in other countries in the world where people have been protesting something that police brutality we've seen violence right these protests become by those people burning things also it's not the case with peace protests no we've not seen you know that an arche or vandalism a looting that hasn't been a staple of this we've seen in fact cases where police have opened fire on people but there hasn't been the kind of violent response from these groups for example hitting back at the police it's generally have been a few isolated incident but overall this tends to have been peaceful and that's part of the message these young people are trying to get across that they have a point that trying to get and the government has to listen to them right tell us

about these young people this demographic i mean we saw the chair of the air this is of course is a tech savvy people take it how to effectively use the tools that are available to them just get a sense of who this demographic it was with people who are prominent in this are born in the in the ninety's and on words these are people who are young and of a different generation who have been accused of being ignorant of nigerian history and i suppose maybe that's what's worked for them because they don't have the same hangups that older generations have they don't have the fear of the government they don't have the kind of deference to older people into authority that other generations have now. why maybe this all on they come out the way they do they're not reliant on traditional media they go out on social media and do the work themselves there's a case where police accused protesters of shooting at police officers and these people came out quickly and showed video to say no no your police officers were the ones who fired while widely wildly and this is how police officers themselves got

injured so they didn't verification against misinformation and that's what sets them apart from. other groups in the past the word unprecedented gets overused sometimes but i think it does definitely apply in this case ok and we'll leave it there tony thank you so much for that. now in total and medical student is teaching high school girls how to detect breast cancer in its early stages the ideas for the girls just spread their knowledge in their community breast cancer is the most common type of cancer found in women worldwide and the earlier breast cancer can be identified the better a woman's chance of survival. breast cancer what is it and how can you tell if you have it. that's what these teenage girls at the revelation high school in the me are here to find out today in 2017 young trainee dr. doesn't have more than 20 high schools in tokyo to promote breast cancer awareness . it's called. i mean that m l a 2

a rose could post evil influence the future of africa because our initial goal is to end the current trend of detecting breast cancer in its advanced stages so once the girls are informed about breast cancer detection they go home and have to try to share this information with at least 10 people. and this is what sidonie does after attending the m.r.i. to of course workshop the 15 year old shared what she had learned about tumors and breast examinations. with her friend and her mother. before the horse came to our high school i didn't know anything about breast cancer . from my make but i learned a lot when they came they also showed us how to detect breast cancer off air. to say where to according to the world health organization more than $3000.00

people in tokyo died from cancer and 2018 alone almost $750.00 women died from breast cancer the majority of the population in total lives below the poverty line this makes it more difficult for them to access prevention measures and other important for mission about cancer diseases. beauty so doc in works of the train in your ologist i took in university teaching hospital in. the 25 year old was nominated by the global health council as one of the female leaders in the field she believes that it is more important to invest in prevention rather than treatment. we have noticed that at the hospital many women who are. breast cancer women who have no idea about the disease and don't know anything about what we call breast self-examination.

so far beauty and her team have already trained over $6000.00 girls but there is still much more ground to cover. increasing awareness is just the 1st in the battle against the most common type of cancer found in women worldwide. and that's it for now be sure to check out our other stories on deja dot com africa on facebook and on twitter. don't miss our highlights. program. dot com highlights. sleep. carefully. to be.

discovered. subscribe to documentaries to. publishers are feeling the pandemic but it's not all bad how the world's biggest book fair is coping with the coronavirus coming out on arts and culture and iconic designs by one of film's top costumers go on display in berlin and a little later on the show 50 shades of grey and more like 3000 our reporter rachel gets familiar with german bread culture. welcome to arts

and culture for book lovers there's nothing like it the biggest publishing event in the world the frankfurt book fair but this year with the coronavirus it's a radically different digital affair still it's attracting headliners including canadian author margaret atwood she's one of the big names set to grace the online event with a live stream. last year more than 300000 industry professionals and visitors came to the frankfurt book fair some 7500 exhibitors meet at the most important industry show of the year. but this year because of coronavirus the trade halls are. empty and the book fair has gone digital. music and the trade fair holes won't be the same this year as well as a decentralized event we've had to come up with a relatively large scale digital concept. many publishers said that interview their own authors and then present the results of the fair.

over numerous digital platforms industry professionals from around the world can communicate and present their authors this year selection is extremely diverse from celebrity chef jamie oliver to whistleblower edward snowden they tim fung the fares so she oh political stage is this year all about europe and its cultures naturally it too is online. because of the emphasis on the digital some creativity gets lost there are a few random encounters for example the great thing about physically being here is that i can look up to my shoulder and see what's going on 10 meters behind me to counter that online. 20 twentieth's guest of honor canada has postponed its physical presence at the fair until next year instead it's presenting a culturally diverse offering online including books about its indigenous population the 2020 frankfurt book fair is an experiment but will it remain an online event in the future we're trying to figure out what works digitally and how

to economic transactions work how does the public interact with the digital elements of course we will use whatever works at this year's event next year the future is looking more digital anyhow but the desire to mix with others in person is unlikely to disappear any time soon. my colleague melissa holroyd is following developments in frankfurt. the frankfurt book fair this is normally a beer event of the year where the whole publishing world comes together hundreds of thousands of people sharing scouting titles can this really work on why i'm. not sure. i mean they're doing their best they've got 4400 digital exhibit is there this year from 110 countries they've got 260 hours planned of streaming of talks of readings of seminars but you simply cannot replace the social element but it's really important people don't just go to frankfurt to buy and sell books they

go there for the cultural element and you know they go there also to party do you think it's going to bounce back after this in the same way that it was it's certainly time for you know publishers to take stock isn't any sort of pause is time to take stock you know to think how much money are we spending going there how many people are we sending anyway book sales are up in germany that were down at the start of the pandemic and now they're up there also up in the united states so this trend that we've seen over the years of the frankly just getting bigger and bigger i don't know whether that's going to continue that might change but he said the book sales are up is that just due to people having more time to hang out at home with a book how do you explain that yeah well thanks to coronado we're spending more time at home we're spending more time indoors i think people are also very very sick of looking at screens and looking at things online and there's a lot of comfort in actually having a book in your hands isn't there you know it's like an anchor in the storm

absolutely well more so we're going to have to see how this goes if. e-books are the thing if really this could be the resurgence of the physical book thanks so much for keeping us up to date on the frankfurt book fair. and it looks like it may be another year yet before large scale performances return to new york the new york philharmonic has now canceled its season 3 to june its expecting to lose about $20000000.00 in ticket sales the orchestra's president called the corona virus the biggest crisis in the philharmonic's 178 years now in the meantime with concert halls closed members of the phil have been putting on small performances in the streets. for decades now designer bob has been bringing german films to life or costumes tell stories about the characters who wear about the time and place they're from and how they see

themselves and their exhibition in berlin celebrates some iconic designs by a woman with a special feel for fabrics. intricately flowing silk delicate chiffon or heavy brocade this is the world of. germany's most famous costume designer. the stunning costumes on display are a visual testament to the importance of her craft within the film industry and to her legacy. that's caused this in the costume design in those films tells a story and i think that's the specialty of bob of about the turn of the costumes she brings a narration a meaning to the scene and not the one. thing. career spans more than 6 decades and over 70 films it's her particular feel for

historical fabrics that earned her the recognition of her peers. found has worked with germany's biggest directors thanks to her collaboration's with focus learned off like here on home a father or with kind of an office been her. work reached an international audience . that if they move into other films are known worldwide and for example living in my lane is deeply imprinted on to collective memory especially this wonderful silver limaye dress which we're showing in the exhibition and which is inseparably and twined with fassbinder us and bob of a bounce work. the count is put to stunning effect in fassbender is film about forbidden love in the 3rd high he was. shocked to mention. was that.

it was bombs collaboration's with fassbender that propelled her to the top of her field and even beyond. you know brad is in great danger she became an inspiration beyond the film industry through fast and those posthumously released film with sean middle. east instead of we know that she is the inspiration for many costume designers but we also know that when john saw 1st in this case he got inspiration for his fashion lines because that's quite unusual for costume designers just because his office here in question. from sketches to film stones the exhibition covers the decades of part of a career. her attention to detail is literally palpable as visitors can actually touch the fabrics and experience some of the magic of the films she worked on.

from fashion now to food world bread day is coming out this week and as anyone who lives here in germany knows in germany it's basically bread day every day here's our reporter rachel stewart with this week's installment of the germans. grain east and water 3 key ingredients to german fashion. the germans even called this it was called liquid bread cost germans what they missed above all else when they go. to the shore to. take leave the. little wonder then that german bread has been designated an official you know sco intangible cultural heritage but it is obviously a favorite staple all over the world and plenty of countries eat more of it than the germans for example in turkey they twice as much but the germans take great pride in their specific for riots of bread there are more than 3000 different types on the official bread register we spelt are all very popular varieties then there are a variety of like sprouts. they usually come in finland slices like this one very

tasty but very heavy i get a lot of stick here in germany about bread germans seem to think that look pretty is a really bad version of what they call tools well this makes me pretty defensive of my country superior sliced bread varieties i can't deny that the germans make a cracking look so what's the secret. of the word coup to warn you they feel free for the fortune to be. also offered us to the soldiers because it was an early said war and was home for going on with. the 1st one a month this is transposed and told my mom i'm working for the one thing i love about living in germany is a large hearty breakfast on the weekend including the vital ingredient of fresh bread from the bakery bread traditionally makes an appearance throughout the day in germany it's the star of the breakfast bread later on you might munch out of housing or 2 or 3 times bread and in the evening many families will have evening bread but over the last 10 years the germans have become

a little less loyal to that crystal staple with among dipping and more shop with switching to discount to supermarkets there's also been a decline in the number of independent bakeries like this one. anyway i was lucky enough to have a. there are so many. and that's the time pretty much anywhere. except in. general in the southwest. and depending on where you are in front. i have a theory that germany is trying to test its new comers by making it. difficult.

i remember trying to go. when i was new. i would. get to the front. of the time i'd end up walking away with. a perfectly fine. perhaps in the woods. and it'll be worth. a picture of a siberian tigers hugging a tree as it won the wildlife photographer of the year award for russian for. his photos called. and i'll leave you now with a few other shots that were in the running for that prize from britain's natural history museum thanks for watching arts and culture.
