and connections to people who gave very large amounts of funding to the conservative party over several years one of the connections that hasn't been looked up to date is a connection that we reported on related hand hansen asset management so one of the founding directors of s.c.l. election which is the u.k. incorporation of cambridge analytical is a guy called christian to road christian patrick to road who was a director and is a director now he was a director with jesse elections by year and he's currently director of hanson asset management which is a. that was a success of the hansen p l c which is set up by lord james hansen the well known fatter industrialist who has huge connections to tobacco to big coal in the united states and so on and so forth what it was a major donor to the conservative party and also had very close connections to the vote leave campaign in the u.k.

the people that work for hanson at the time went on like dominic cummings went on to run vote leave so we have all these sorts of very very direct connections to very powerful figures in the establishment and questions aren't being asked about why those establishment figures wanted to use an n.c. like him which analytical in order to manipulate public opinion this really raises the question with this massive shift to the far right that we've seen in mainstream politics in the united states and in europe wasn't really just this accident wasn't really just this thing of angry people being angry about the migrants that there were actually very powerful elites in the united states and britain people who outside the deep state the people who represented sections of that deep state who wanted this to happen they wanted to see this big shift to the far right and that is a very very alarming scenario. in the face that's all the time we have today but certainly your analysis reminds me of jeremy bentham zz assessment of creating

a panopticon this idea of basically a completely all seeing eye that watching us move more saltsman the bit in the orwell's big brother in a sense and potentially will really potentially all this information there money from us could ultimately be serving toward some kind of artificial intelligence supercomputers but i think at this point we'll have to leave it for today and hopefully pick up the conversation at a future date. when you think back to your grade school lessons about dr king you likely recall his most widely cited speeches for example i have a dream or i've been to the mountaintop there's a reason each of these works are important to teach to our youth and there's certainly a reason those words have stood the test of time but while it's necessary to remember king's message of racial justice and equality there's a deeper more revolutionary king we rarely hear about m.l.k.

was not concerned only with race he saw class struggle in economic equality as central to the cause of civil rights in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven report to the southern christian leadership conference he declared quote we must recognize that we can't solve our problem now until there is a radical redistribution of economic and political power this means a revolution of values and other things we must see now that the evils of racism economic exploitation and militarism are all tied together you can't really get rid of one without getting rid of the others the whole structure of american life must be changed america is a hypocritical nation and we must put our own house in order. king recognized justice would never truly be achieved in the united states without addressing economics in one nine hundred sixty five address to the negro american labor council he announced quote something is wrong with happiness and according to that system which responsible for economic hardship and war in one of his lesser known

speeches king denounced the u.s. war in southeast asia making it very clear what he believed plagued american society most i am. the three giant triplets of racism materialism and militarism these were the evils king sought to defeat in his book where do we go from here chaos or community being targeted the military industrial complex declaring quote a nation that contain. to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual do these views are consistent with what may be described as the heart of king flossy we may have all come on different ships but we're in the same boat now when he was assassinated cain was planning a march to take place here on the nation's capital dubbed the poor people's campaign its purpose was to unite americans behind the message of economic justice and the eradication of poverty regardless of race fifty years since his

assassination just read giant triplets the recent materialism and militarism he warned us of our standing as tall as ever in this country and for that reason so should the radical message of dr king. five decades after a smarter on april fourth one thousand nine hundred ca martin luther king jr and his legacy continue to propel us forward to never slow down and most importantly to always remember that the greatest troublemakers and the most prolific peacemakers are most often one in the same and martin luther king jr is a legacy taught us to always keep our eyes open and to never assume the fight is over since one thousand nine hundred sixty eight and king's work that helped destroy jim crow laws the civil rights movement has done much to level the playing field of life for african-americans but what's particularly disturbing is how far we truly sit from a place of racial equality and the proof is in the numbers according to the bureau of labor statistics since one nine hundred sixty eight rates of unemployment were

twice as high for african-americans meaning being poor and white is twice as lucrative as being poor and black studies have revealed a job applicants with surnames that are perceived as black are fifty percent less likely to get a positive response than white sounding surnames but this is america right anyone regardless of race should be able to grow rich if they just try hard right or wrong the or. urban institute come data from a survey of consumer finances and found that the average wealth of white families was over seven hundred thousand dollars higher than the average wealth of black families shortly before his assassination in one nine hundred sixty eight martin luther was in the midst of organizing the poor people's campaign which hope to march on washington d.c. to demand a standard living wage poverty programs and housing for the nation's poor the passion for helping less fortunate does not weigh in in the moments after king's death in fact poverty rates for african-americans have been declining steadily for the last decade however african-americans are still nearly twice as likely than

whites to live in areas below the poverty line and this stems in part from the act of residential segregation can never has with higher medium poverty rates meaning over thirty percent black children remain about sixty percent more likely to live in those neighborhoods than white children but on a positive note it seems that the work of desegregation and the fight to improve public education has had some gains since the march in selma since nine hundred sixty eight the gap in completion rates in american high schools between white and black students has almost been closed and that brings us to tomorrow what will be done tomorrow and the next day and the next week to improve the lives of our neighbors our fellow human beings i think martin luther king jr said it best there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular but he must take it because conscience tells them it's right. powerful man powerful words of in

a truly amazing legacy that we have to honor and remember each year whether it's the fiftieth anniversary of the fifty first or the you know sixty seven or seventy fifth we have to always remember the work of dr martin luther king jr and carry on his work for him with a great great beast what was it was good stuff all right everybody that i'm afraid is our show for us today remember him is the world. told the real buffet ups or tell your wall i love you a little bit and on top i'll keep all the bottles walks all ready. for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. you guys i know you are nervous he's

a huge star among us and the huge amount of pressure come after you have to go meet the center of the beach hotel with you and do so with all the great the great good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get down there we have to go. alone. and i'm really happy to join the fall of two thousand and three in the world cup in russia meet the special one come on don't appreciate me to just take the rio bianchi team's latest edition make it up as we go so i need to just say look. i don't want my welcome that you will let michael go on. or you will pull you out of the. gate open ended mountains and what about and i didn't do well we will always be the good is it that's the. only one to offer

household. on a politician. keep it or don't or don't let you come up with a good. content in the end about the lalanne even imagine that them and the money isn't. not bad with him but oh november they'd have us eyes of a man a janitor like. madonna. and it is about. facebook admits that data belonging to nearly all of its two billion users may have

been accessed improperly and that around eighty seven million accounts were breached by the research firm cambridge analytics. the u.k. foreign office deletes a tweet claiming british experts had pinpointed russia as the source of the nerve agent used in the screwball poisoning case. rejects russia's proposal for a joint investigation into the poisoning of the double agent sergey screwball and his daughter. and russia turkey and iran agreed to a joint effort to rebuild syria and it warned of attempts by militants to sabotage the peace process. are broadcasting live director our studios in moscow this is aren't international

i'm shawn thomas certainly glad to have you with us now facebook has admitted that the scale of a personal data breach involving the research firm cambridge analytical was far larger than previously estimated artie's kill a mop and has more but we now have facebook admitting that most of its two billion users probably had their information revealed in an unauthorized manner now when the new york times first broke the story in mid. march we heard that it was fifty million fifty million users of facebook that had their information handed over to cambridge analytic now we later heard that it was eighty seven million people who had their facebook profiles handed over to this research firm and that the majority of them were in the united states now the firm that has been using this information it's called cambridge and a little and essentially it does data collection and polling and analysis for political parties political campaigns and groups they use this information

essential to craft their messaging craft their campaigning in a way that would be persuasive they kind of create a psychological profile of the of the potential voters based on what they have collected from facebook and social media they then use that information to craft their campaign advertising their messaging etc and now the data harvesting happened in a tacit agreement with facebook now facebook says they had no malicious intent. however this has really hurt their reputation the government of germany actually went as far as asking for a clarification from facebook for an explanation we also have seen the trend delete facebook all over social media with people you know tweeting out you know delete facebook calling for people to stop using facebook in response to this perceived you know dissemination of people's personal information we now have an apology from mark zuckerberg the chief of facebook this is what he said we need to

make sure that there aren't any other cambridge general because out there right or folks who have been properly access data you know we need to make sure that we don't make that mistake ever again so at this point it's revealed that essentially almost all of facebook's two billion users probably had some of their information access without their permission in an unauthorized manner now that. very very big and a lot of questions are being asked now we do know that facebook is now in the process of changing their apps so that certain apps are more protected and that the privacy of their users is more protected but as we see you know this call for for facebook to be deleted for people not to be used to using facebook is expanding so a lot of questions are being raised and it's certainly true that the reputation of this very widely used social media app is is severely tarnished. we asked internet law expert

a year cohen and media analyst timothy car for their views on the facebook data scandal. generally the guys denying the figure they claim there is only thirty million but i don't think it makes a lot of would be from very early in the late a million is the principle behind the old story about what about the use of the new drug lords as we call them books in order to meddle in the u.s. election is now still story a little bit out of there a little bit ridiculous nobody is talking about it but it was very interesting to hear. a couple of weeks ago. almost apologizing for lowery and we're going to leave the boxes today that it was then. doing election is the the story was.
