tv Watching the Hawks RT April 11, 2018 2:30am-3:01am EDT
2:30 am
alberto oil to market in the west for greenpeace is kind of the greenpeace canada's mike who damon chimed in stating british colombians desire to protect clean water safeguard the environment and stand behind indigenous communities cannot be ignored or swept under the rug i wish we could you know the same could be said for canada's neighbors to the south and you good old us of they found out even more bad news about their much beloved keystone pipeline i'm sure you have heard of it according to trans canada the south dakota league back in november was actually much bigger than the five thousand barrels they told us that was the leak actually came in around nine thousand seven hundred barrels. you know what i think it's time to break out the milkshakes and straws so i can drink your milk shake and start watching the hawks.
2:31 am
the. real deal with. the bottom. like you know that i got. it so. well that we're going to watch for the hard times well and i'm having a laugh and ninety seven hundred barrels want to shock and of oil company lied about how much oil leaked out of a pipeline that activists protested for months that they were worried about getting out of the pipeline and i know you really sell in your case there were just probably why at some point you have the this oil company and in canada going you know what it's not at some point it's not worth the effort and guess what people don't like pipelines they don't like them they don't like when they go through
2:32 am
their yard no no and that's the biggest fear right now look we are in a transition narry period of history we're transitioning out of the old in the you know dinosaur dead dinosaur way of doing energy right and into the new and this is what you see happen and i was so happy to hear this good news like i said there's a lot of bad news in the world today so i was actually happy to get the story down the pipeline yes and hear this and one of the things that interesting is that it's still all profits at the end of the day and profits is what drove this pipeline in the first place was the inability to get to oil ports oil to ports for export means that canadian crude has been trading at a discount of up to twenty five dollars a barrel this year costing alberta's heavy oil producers about. thirty million to forty million canadian dollars in revenue per day that's a lot of money that's why there was so much corporate and government push from ottawa to want to make this thing happen but the activists stopped up and they
2:33 am
joined with politicians and militias not happening which is how it's supposed to work you know activists are supposed to be able to take that message you know grassroots message from the streets and bring it into the open into the media or so politicians and in this case this was when activism and politicians actually mean and they really it actually makes a difference the british columbia premier john harken had said it a statement on sunday that. the federal process failed to consider b c's interests and the risk to our province we believe we need to grow the economy while protecting the environment and i think this is where you're going to see wins is what activism is using common sense and using really understanding the process they're trying to change and when you walk in and say we can win both ways businesses can win and the environment can win because ultimately at the end of the day if that environment's not there if people can't live there you won't have a company you won't have anything in the world you can really make money right and
2:34 am
i think we're going to win the consumers are old dead because the years old in their waters running to fick with oil and going there dying left and right now it's going to buy the right but i think it's interesting because this is one of those things where you know today i was a pretty face yes yes lovely a pretty face but at the end of the day he's another one of these progressive pretty faces that is out saying i believe in progressive causes i believe in immigration i believe in women's rights i believe in these things i don't doubt that he does he has a problem it seems i mean politicians here in the us have the same problem that they do not respect indigenous land then it degenerates people and they do not respect the fact that a large majority of people do not want big ugly nasty oil pipelines go in through there go in under their land and. you know that's one of those dangerous politicians because those are the ones who might tell you on t.v.'s real thing you want to hear they'll tell you on the campaign trail everything you want to hear but at the end of the day do they actually follow through and when you see something
2:35 am
like this where he's putting clearly economics over you know the safety of the environment and the safety of the people of that i'm british columbia that's where you get the problems come in i mean you know it's interesting to me that like if kinda morgan the oil company infrastructure who builds the pipeline if they can see the people across canada don't want this and are choosing indigenous rights and clean water and a safe climate over a pipeline why can't just go see the same thing that to me is the question of the day ladies and gentlemen i'll follow the money makes it who gives it who donates to see that every time and it's really i mean honestly. i'm tired of this i am tired of the good looking politician who tells people what they want to hear and then does the exact opposite i don't think we're i don't think that the true doze of the obama's yes i said obama two and all of them are going to go away anytime soon i just wish that once could we have a good looking politician who actually speaks the truth whose name doesn't end with . the most convenient of chemical attacks over the weekend
2:36 am
moving the united states from an exit strategy to a bombing strategy tensions have been rising between all the nations currently involved in the ongoing global political quagmire a battleground in syria from a kited to isis to the united states to russia to israel turkey and around all the way back to bashar al assad the president of syria there is a lot of players a lot of violence and very little idea of what exactly is going to happen next and why r.t. correspondent dan cohen has the latest on the potential global background that is taking shape again in the war torn country of syria so far there have been many allegations but few if any facts have been established about what happened in duma on saturday that hasn't stopped us officials from declaring us. responsible for the alleged attack and threatening military action i could hold up pictures of babies lying dead next to their mothers brothers and sisters toddlers and infant still in
2:37 am
diapers all lying together dead who does this. only a monster does this. the o.p.c. w.'s announcement comes after the russian and syrian government's called for an investigation we're going to the organization to the precipitation of chemical weapons experts to visit the sites and we will work hard to make this visit happen we cannot blindly believe in the results of investigations achieved from a distance. russia for its part has conducted its own investigation that found no evidence or even testimony to support the allegations of a chemical attack. in interviews no single president confirmed the chemical attack have been say complaints bodies of people killed by chemical agents have not been found and chemical personnel and residents have no information about the potential is there for the use of sarin including has not been confirmed by the russian military said it would provide security for the team of investigators in april
2:38 am
twenty seventh o.p.c. w. experts were unable to visit the site of an alleged chemical attack and concha koon a village an al qaeda controlled province the trumpet ministration blamed us from the shire air base secretary of defense jim matheson later admitted the us had no evidence of a sarah tack and instead relied on reports from the battlefield monday president trump spoke with british prime minister theresa may and french president emmanuel mccrone about air strikes in syria saudi arabia and israel both of which have supported extremist groups in syria have also made statements in support of military action in washington dan cohen r t. m yeah this sort of keeps going. on and on and on and we've watched this for five plus years now watching this whole thing sort of. build and build and build build
2:39 am
and what's interesting now it was was brought up by a colleague of ours is is this idea that right now everyone is just talking about the when the where the what us is going to make it happen and the one thing well i think isn't being talked about is this idea that what happens if these u.s. are not down you know it's claimed that the syrian air defenses said that they got six or five of eight missiles that were. by israel just three nights or just a few nights ago so if they can knock out five of eight of those and they weren't expecting those they know things are coming what happens like where does the world go if the u.s. can't success isn't successful in its own potential retaliation. you know after the world that's convenient chemical weapon attack can be prevented yeah convenient it that's a great question i know that is what raytheon thought what happens to the stock of those companies what happens to the belief in this idea because this aura of
2:40 am
military is so strong in the strongest in the world is predicated on the manufacturing capabilities of our military industrial complex not in our fighting men and women it's about this equipment and if this equipment can easily be knocked out of the sky one another and much that's the i know and then there's the lead to zero and now we have to bomb harder now we have to go bomb those sites that took the missiles out and then does that start that domino effect that then suddenly you have you know i don't know how many countries are now involved in this thing and that's the big scary part about syria that everyone's kind of worried about that nobody in like mainstream media wants to mention for some reason is that you have i mean you have syria united states russia turkey iran israel saudi arabia france britain germany i mean that's just off the top of my head of like who i can think of is like all. they have stakes in the outcome of syria no one's quite been able to explain to me why all these countries care about what happens to syria so much
2:41 am
all of a sudden given the amount of other terrible things happening in the world but you know that raises the question are we staring down the potential scenario for world war three if something bad happens if let's say a rocket gets shot out of a sky us gets egg on their face or if the rocket takes out a bunch of russian military or there are so many ifs and or certain you know and this is the thing where we're not waiting for evidence we're not doing anything on a proper channel it's we're you know when we saw it in the u.k. where you have a government jumping out and making statements before they have information which then makes other politicians and other government employees look stupid and untrustworthy because then they have to turn around and say oh right that was wrong you know and in this situation it's much like ukraine you know it's like you cream . syria gaza wherever it is what you're seeing is there's a lot of people who are calling themselves activists. and then you have the warmongers and they're both gearing up right now to prove each other's side is more
2:42 am
righteous that their side is more bright and now what you're saying is today it's the hot button topic of the day but what what gets lost in these wars on these kinds of things is that everybody's arguing about who's right and who's wrong and quite frankly at the end of that discussion you're still dropping a bomb or some murdering people innocent and there's other people around the world as well that are equally their lives are equally important in those other conflicts around the world are equally important to the syria as you know all these other i raise that really really cared more about you know you know it's easy to get wrapped up in the cause of i want to drop bombs and know you better drop bombs if you did that line eleven and everybody got really comfortable really quickly with the idea of you know wherever it is and now look where we are now so i just ask people to take a second and really think about it before you start calling for the great point all right as we go to break watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter see our poll shows at our t.v. dot com coming up we talk respectability politics race and the rise of hip hop
2:43 am
stars hard to be the author and educator do you want to stay tuned to watching the . film world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question by the way is going to be our coach. guys i know you on the us he's a huge star among us and the huge amount of pressure you have to the center of the beach but probably with you and so will the great game. you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get the ball going let's go. just a load of those i want to know and i'm really happy to join that today and for the thousand infielder world cup in russia meet the special one come on top of. me to just read the review the aussie team's latest edition may go up as we go need to
2:44 am
just say look. this is holland kentucky. overboard this move the voices of the world ministry fanny's leave. a ko money since he was almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal miners are said. live to see these people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's happening it's happened.
2:45 am
both of these men's are was born in the bronx in one thousand nine hundred two making her about six years old when lauryn hill's do up that thing from the album the miseducation of lauren hill became the first solo rap female rap single to reach number one on the billboard hot one hundred charts and in april of twenty eighteen buckley's more commonly known as he had her single yellow reach number one a first for a female rappers since phil bowed out yellow went on to be certified a five times well to platinum hit in addition to these first album invasion of privacy was certified gold the same day it was released and is still climbing the charts she's also the first rapper to have her first three billboard hot one
2:46 am
hundred entries in the top ten simultaneously carty b. is the most unlikely of stars she's known for her past as an exotic dancer a career she took up to get out of an abusive relationship a choice she credits as saving her life she's been open and honest about her plastic surgery and the insecurities about her body that letter to get them she isn't the kind of woman who's supposed to make it as a fashion stylist as speaker just under a cold wrote on facebook carty be reminds me of the people you least expect to succeed the way she got to the top might not suit the likings of everyone but no one can deny her ability to seize every opportunity given to her however in the midst of her groundbreaking achievements we see an ugly pattern in the haters have been going to be and yet now oh as main seem extreme acceptance is coming fast for the bronx rapper suddenly love is showing and as the watkins put it first so on why would we wait for big corporations to define hip hop especially when many of the genres most talented creators and trendsetters like already come from the bottom
2:47 am
and here to talk about how respectability politics and race fit into the rise and rise of artists like r t v is a writer educator and speaker to walk and thank you for joining us. always a pleasure and i want to start and this is interesting story that came out of like the kind of rise of card i never thought i'd be talking about how to be but but the rise of the you know this this woman and her talent and all that is a fast stakes are especially when you see culture reacting to it that's what really got me and one of those things was anti-pornography group the national center on sexual exploitation basically kind of browbeating household wal-mart the retailer so much that they did they remove the cosmopolitan cover that she was on and you know from stands at the front of the store there to put in the back citing them as you know sexually exploitive influences but what's interesting to me is the you know they didn't seem to care about the cosmos cover had like you know this is a star mandy moore or big bang theory is keli kuko showing more skin than carty be
2:48 am
did and you know and that and that is ridiculous to me so deep rap and hip hop have always been like you know something scary to white america but yet they buy it and eat it up all the time. you know and the whole fear is what it's going to turn like the nice white kids of america into like you know gangsters or some horrible terrible cliche or you know. where does that come from and what effect does that actually have in the black community when you see this kind of reaction so the funny thing for me is why would you get excited about moving someone from you know a wal-mart right but no one is excited about moving thomas jefferson often money right i think i like to hear more of a negative impact on people but you know i think anyone who is an attack tardy b. is that's the definition of being an american this is an american story this is what this country promotes a person from the bottom doing what it takes to get to the top and she did it in
2:49 am
the legal way and she used the tools that was in front of her and she's creating music that i connect that's connecting people from all over the world so people. i just don't understand it i'm in a coma don't throw. it was so strange to me because you did see this thing where i'm looking at you know even if you know. outlets that are usually very pro woman or you know things like the root and i'm seeing like carnie vs trashing if you think you like or you're trash too and i'm like yeah and like i was someone who was always called white trash growing up because you come for the wrong side of the tracks there's this idea that oh you're well spoken even though you came from a country came from a thing and then i found that that is one thing that intersects with our experience is that if you come from the wrong place or you're not you know you're not classy enough and one of those things i noticed was in party g q interview. where they of course signed a female writer to do this but the female writer spent the first three paragraphs.
2:50 am
just in specific detail about body. then she this writer lets everyone know that. actually knows a lot about presidents in american history and actually knew something about the social security system that the writer didn't which is fascinating oh she was fast and married only yours as person and the for india only reaction the next sentence after this you know did you know the writer admits i didn't know that thoughts were so security came from f.d.r. and the first thing she talks about as she was she goes on to say her baby doll features big eyes round face minimal chin the minute this white girl saw this girl knew more than she did about history and it seemed so crazy. is this this is part of that sort of fetishization of black women by both men and women this fetishisation and this idea that oh my gosh she can read she knows third because he knows the words work in church. well he drives me crazy and i have how how do we
2:51 am
fix that how do we deal since this thing was even more scary is that i read the woman's biracial grow up in a black neighborhood so she's influenced by black culture the bigger problem is that you can be a person who looks black and identifies as black but still subscribe to the same degree of the same ideas that suppress black people who don't have the luxury of coming from the black elite that's the problem if i can sit down with the people they want and they always look at me like i'm crazy but if i could sit down with them i would straight up see cutty be to me is as important as billie holiday only into someone she is telling stories getting a whole lot of people excited and having fun and delivering truisms that some of best most celebrated artists have done right you'll never get there because you're not from that experience or you look down on that experience so you
2:52 am
really shouldn't have the luxury of documenting that experience if you don't like it you probably don't get it you know so i just got it gets difficult for me. to even read a lot of these articles and think pieces about people who think they can speak on it you know when i when i first when i first heard a call to be i was instantly like you know this is she's like the woman i grew up around she is how old are you she's funny but at same time she's smart and she's always on the right side of every issue early we talked about. how she addressed mental health in some of the shootings going on she stood up for cabinet she's all in the rice out of these issues because you can't accept what a message comes from has nothing to do with the messenger this is something wrong with you right and i think that's the thing is that especially for women you know if you're eight and i think it's two things for women if you did any kind of sex work if you were a stripper legal or otherwise it doesn't matter and it guys i think if it if you ever again any unlike anything that was remotely even close to illegal you know sell drugs or whatever you get judged. for that because that's part of your past
2:53 am
you know jay z. is to tommy lair and is always the drug dealer you know in-car to be is the stripper and what's funny is that he or she you know she just announce that she's pregnant this last weekend and one of the things that she she pointed out is that she said it really bothers me and disgust me because i see a lot of women on line like oh i feel sorry for you your career is over and it's like why can't i have both as a woman why can't i have both why do i got to choose a career a baby and she went on to say i'm a millionaire i'm fine i got my stuff covered i'm good and i think that's the do you think women the same woman the same women that you and i grew up around these tough women who took the jobs who work seven days a week who hostile because they have two kids they didn't have a choice between having a job and having a baby they had how do you think that's maybe it's a class issue is that some people just don't understand that class of. oh i mean i think i think yeah i think it's a total classes because it to me it also plays into the fact of like look this is
2:54 am
not someone that we like representing success right and if they can be successful as a parent despite what like i don't like when she says this curse word or something like that then she's a success as a parent and the success you know the capitalism that america celebrates that's that's a dangerous combination and to me that also plays into that kind of you know the swiftboating of card to be if you will where you know you're there also attacking this person and this is an arm of the biggest car to be fair and like i mean i think she's a good rapper compared to what's out there i don't but i do respect her journey. but i do respect the journalist you know i suspect what she's doing immensely right but what i hate is ok we're going to have like we'll celebrate taylor swift success all day long oh look how much money she made every hit blah blah blah even though it's the same damn song about breaking up with somebody right but we're going to but we're going to at the end of the day you know push cart it down and push her artistic ability does that to me is a parkers and that idea that it's on
2:55 am
a tactic. allen well she only got the gold record because there's a technicality and yet technically she sold a heck of a lot of albums so if she was a man she would be celebrated except that she was on card debt if she didn't she would have her own action figure. so they had to give her a hard way to go to make themselves feel better about their own. that is just who he was is an elder because i think the thing that we always talk about is there is this thing especially when men or if you're you know from the wrong side of the tracks whether that means you're a woman you're black you're poor whatever your event or you know you're from the wrong side you can i do the thing there's three things are never a good girls never are supposed to talk about sex power and money. you know a bad girls always good sex power and money and what does everybody want our money no good for her and she's a credible incredible talent and d always a pleasure having you on the to talk about his wonderful issues with us. now says junior program arrived at the planet and jupiters or bed in july of two
2:56 am
thousand and six say since then the probe has the distinction of being the most distant solar powered craft ever and it needs that power to collect data on the hydrogen and helium planet often acts more like a star and the data we have is from the one nine hundred seventy s. so which makes this new batch of data and images from juno probes so spectacular from gravity to jupiter's atmospheric storm bands juno is solving the mystery of just how deep the clouds go turns i have to go very deep one thousand eight hundred sixty miles to be exact meaning that these beautiful images tell us that the atmosphere of jupiter makes up one percent of the planet's total mass in perspective earth's atmosphere only makes up about one million of our planet's mass so keep your eyes on juno because it will be taking its last dive in july twenty eighth and jupiter is magneto sphere where it will disintegrate but if things keep going as well as they are nasa may extend juno's missions so take
