the agreed to do just that but a few years later was dragged from the drain and shot so you can see the argument for keeping a lid on terror and you know. that's a come on donald give the boy a chance for the open mouthed. bully. good idea in case you missed it trump and kim aren't going to meet the north korean leader says washington will be in the fire of a thousand star ok so you missed it and kim finally agreed to meet they've officially booked a romantic suite at singapore's raffles harry tell you in case you missed it trungpa has stormed out of a summit with the north korean leader it's reported he misunderstood the briefing telling him he'd be meeting someone called kim in a singapore hotel. well that's the u.s. north korean summit was being debated kim jong un met with russia's foreign minister reacting to news of that meeting trump initially said that he didn't like
2:31 pm
it but he added that he was willing to change his mind if something positive came out of it korean affairs experts we contacted say the u.s. doesn't want to be sidelined in the peace process if you give this president a branding run and. call it that b.p. the trump peace plan you're going to have a situation where this president's going to be excited because the legacy issue he could really use right now and he wants to do what no president in the us has ever done before the u.s. wants to demonstrate leadership in this area and not be left on the sidelines so it's an opportunity for him and if he believes that the other countries take the lead in the u.s. becomes the side player in peace then you lose them. doesn't understand anything beyond the fact that this could be a good photo op and possibly a boon for his ratings the u.s. has never taken north korea very seriously i mean the idea of the greatest military
2:32 pm
power in the world sitting down with a country that they've already always considered impoverished and backward i think is anathema to many people in washington the united states wants supremacy against china in the region and it wants to maintain its troops in korea as close to china as possible and that has really been a big factor in prolong the conflict in korea the message that kim jong un is that you know he's meeting with lavrov he's meeting with xi jinping. signals to trump you know i have friends in the region and you're the one that is isolating yourself by pulling out these international agreements and so you know i'll be fine with or without you. next the four cents that's the final amount but a florida jury eventually awarded the family of a black man fatally shot by police officers he was killed in his garage four years
2:33 pm
ago while officers were investigating a complaint about loud music awarded the family a dollar for funeral expenses and a dollar for each of his three children and that's because the jury established that the officer involved in the shooting was just slightly negligent in the hearing also found that the officer was only one percent of the fault of the death so the compensation was reduced to just four cents it was also established that the fatally shot was intoxicated at the time so that some could still be reduced to zero this is gregory hill father of three fatally shot three times through a garage door by police in twenty fourteen hour police claim that he was holding a gun but it was later found to be unloaded the family's lawyer says it's a senseless case of police misconduct. we were in shock as lawyers because i've never seen or heard anything like this we're not supposed to be punished like that his fiance walked out of the courtroom when it happened you have to tell three
2:34 pm
children destiny. and gregory the third their pain and suffering their loss of a father is only worth a penny it's just a proposal for a story of law enforcement gone wrong but here you have a dead man laying there and police think he's barricaded in his listening to loud music that had the ford in it ok and that's what police came to see. to investigate and it's not even illegal it's it's something that police knock on your door and generally tell you to turn it down and the family have launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for greg's children they've already got over forty thousand dollars in just three days the lawyer says they'll continue their battle for justice one hundred percent goes to the children in the rehabilitation of their family home because it was also destroyed by tear gas we don't understand ninety nine percent and one percent in america your we have
2:35 pm
a second amendment you know some people love it some people hate it but you're legally allowed to possess a firearm and you're legally allowed to open the door with a firearm and we're going to take it all the way to the u.s. supreme court if we have to it's that important because it's a precedent of law enforcement if you're doing nothing illegal shouldn't be able to shoot you through your closed your closed garage door it's preposterous crucifixes now have to be on display in public buildings across germany's largest state i'll tell you why after the break. manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the fine merry go round
2:36 pm
be the one percent. nor middle of the room sick. so. many european colleagues several come to believe that we shan't should get out of the sanction and contraception that yesterday to take months let's be honest and pragmatic do the see the final decision on this issue. as the council watch. those washington is utilizing weans utilized to do all three rules.
2:37 pm
welcome back in germany the controversial new lower in the southern state of bavaria now obliges the crucifixes are displayed at the entrances of all public buildings here's our europe correspondent peter oliver. clearly visible crosses all to go up in some public buildings like courthouses police stations and city halls like this one here in bavaria it's also a new law crucifixes came into effect on the first of june the plan comes courtesy of the ferry is a new president marcus soda and his reasoning is that this is supposed to reinforce bavarian identity in the face of large scale integration. given him by and signal it is a signal of still for sure instant bavaria we want to state our western christian culture and that is why clearly we don't get rid of crosses but hang them up this is not an attack on others but only a cultural symbol which we especially appreciate in the various public opinion
2:38 pm
shows that almost sixty percent of bavarian specially support the move but when we spoke to people on the streets of nuremberg opinion was more finely balanced i don't think it's a good idea. because it has nothing to do with the church the government is separate then the church so why should we do the same i don't think it's a good idea so it's correct because it's a tradition and why not i comment on the one hand we see people wanting to ban the headscarf on the other they're forcing people to shoulder cross that seems the dots to me and. i don't think are very an identity depends on crosses it is stronger in other ways beer gardens and local traditions it's an elite knowing gone is gone is the cross spot of every day life for us but we respect every phrase not just christianity the bavarian president became the target of more than a few online jokes when he announced this idea however those who are charged with
2:39 pm
actually hanging crucifixes in public buildings while they are on side with the plan. this is not a defensive reaction but a positive reinforcement of our culture and it does not hurt to point out what our roots are in this cross is a symbol not only for christians but for people living in bavaria. but critics say that this goes against germany's constitutional separation of church and state and say they want to change the law it's a totally wrong decision of the parian government because it's a barbarian citizen you can be a muslim you can be a tool you can be. non-religious you can be an atheist humanist for example and all those people show no look to the cross and why instead we have a strong tradition arm off a separation of church and state there has to be clarified whether this mixing up
2:40 pm
arm of a religious symbol with secure or rooms of a secular state is really compatible with our bavarian constitution there hasn't been any mad rush to hang crucifixes in buildings like the city hall in nuremberg just behind me here the law didn't come with any deadline and is also widely expected to be challenged in germany's highest court it's some point in the future peter all of a r.t. varia. syrian army has routed the last pockets of terrorists south of the capital damascus and civilians are heading back to the newly liberated cities some are coming to terms with their lives after the war while others are searching for loved ones who went missing during the conflict. the. he fought in the militia supporting the syrian army there were

a german court has ruled that the country spy agency known as the b. and b. can continue to monitor and collect data from internet hubs if it's for strategic security interest the case against it was first brought by the kicks exchange which is accused the b. and d. of breaking the law and depicts is an online exchange points and claims to be the world's largest in terms of peak traffic with its headquarters in germany it operates ten more hubs in other countries to handling data in europe china russia the middle east and america however with special devices the b. and d. can get unfiltered and full copies of information in the system the kicks argues that the practice is illegal as german laws prohibit surveillance of domestic communications without a warrant. we have grave doubts about the legality of the current practice we consider ourselves under obligation to our customers to work towards the situation
2:43 pm
in which to choose to valence of their telecommunications only takes place in a legal manner democracy data protection is one of the most important aspects and no security agency is able to catch all data from the so called d.c. its security agency can call out data in a mess of way it's not only state or of single persons or to one single aspect there is no restriction to kicks in the band they have gone head to head before revelations in twenty thirty nine from n.s.a. whistleblower edward snowden exposed how the german intelligence service and shared data with its american counterpart of the time said that the information was filtered to the german citizens data was not included but the internet exchange insisted that it wasn't possible to be that selective has not and alter again there is no restriction due to sharing this state and there is little for exam
2:44 pm
a parliamentary control there have been some cases already where data has been a huge amount had been transferred. from the energy to n.s.a. and so it's not just because of nothing but it's because of president cases and it has not the best reputation and you were in sharing data with the n.s.a. that in a standard it's not a good signal to be unity get data from the six lot. and i just before we sign off friday martin international day for the protection of children in all walks of life mothers will do whatever they have to to keep their offspring out of harm's way here's one doing just that in moscow. i'm.

2:47 pm

2:48 pm
billions all around the world all this and more coming up in today's going underground but first those fighting nato nation neoliberalism were to be on the streets of rome today to protest what they see as the death of democracy in europe the electorally successful five star movement that alone its far right allies just didn't want to defect even appointed i.m.f. man to be prime minister of italy we don't have. it don't yet know that you can see leaning if you want to change it if you can believe that if i know what you didn't see anything of what. i did my view or in other words what's happened in europe in the first ten or twenty years is just astonishing i mean even the wall street journal astonished pointed out recently in an article that which is correct that in europe no matter what government is elected you know for a left or right and if you know they follow exactly the same policies nigel farage
2:49 pm
saw that and so from the left did the mentor of u.k. labor leader jeremy corbin in europe positions are appointed not elected the commission for example or appointed not one of them in the team and the way that europe has developed is that the bankers and the mountain national corporations have got very powerful positions and if you come in on their terms they will tell you what and cannot do and then john acceptable ideas that were today supposed to be given voice on the streets of the eternal city but italy which will be the third largest economy in the e.u. after breck's it has long been targeted for not being in line with washington in one thousand nine hundred eleven debated nato collaboration with armed groups to defy democracy as former f.b.i. consultant paul williams told sean stone son a film director all over about operation gladio. one r.t. is watching the hawks during larry or one of the years of lead in italy when they
2:50 pm
release riffing bombings even the blown your bombing posited from time they were all done by really stay behind units are glad your units spurred on by the cia well of destabilization of italy is open to debate no one need to bait how a particular italian american actors destabilize the arguable propaganda arm of the us military industrial complex hollywood her name is rose mcgowan and she's been in the news for bringing down powerful men like harvey weinstein currently on bail after being indicted by a grand jury for sex crimes that he denies roses appeared in scores of t.v. and feature films a directorial debut dorn was nominated for the grand jury prize at sundance so they just work is brave tracing her journey from the children of god cult in southern italy to becoming a movie star she joins me now rose welcome to you going underground so why do you think many people believe this part autobiography part manifesto about hollywood of
2:51 pm
the journey towards hollywood as well as only what is so rare. i think it's so rare because people don't talk back to hollywood people don't break rank and they don't tell secrets even though this is definitely not a tell all and like i say it's a tell it how it is people don't really do that either because of the powerful interest stopping anyone from hiding the what's beneath it i think it is the powerful interest i think it's just because it's how it's always been done you know how we call things you know the best lawyers for the job like we have the same names we have the same schedule that they did from when they started hollywood don't deviate it just stays the same because these are the unwritten rules but you know i don't really believe in unwritten rules i don't i don't see the point and i i don't see the point in not saying it like it is we've had intimations of the horror and you name check one very. frame was actually france's former.
2:52 pm
so i mean apart from the fact that electroshock therapy is actually used later on in the narrative what's the importance of friends for francis farmer was a classic hollywood actress and she did very few films she was doing very well and the hollywood powers that be wanted her to continue being famous she did not want to be she didn't want to be an actress she didn't want that life for herself and. the studio head in collusion with her mother had her kidnapped and given electroshock therapy to force her to want to be famous and instead as i say in the book it left her just a husk of a woman and that is kind of i wrote that because it's kind of the message you get as a woman there just. they would love to be able to do that to me i'm sure of it but it's it's just don't get out of line little girl don't get out of line with what schork was it you explained this quite funny actually so it. was the united states we knew given that you left the cold in italy and you arrived in the united
2:53 pm
states which was a miracle truly was i don't know that i've ever gotten over being shocked when america i tell you the truth on a daily basis is quite shocking. it is incredibly beautiful land but it was very traumatic and i did have a big quibble with orange cheese and not understand it having never seen it before and into me it was just a perfect metaphor for. i mean imagine going to the food there in the eighty's in america it was going from italian food in tuscany to that was just everything was different was loud it was it was it was everything you think you cried over the denny's getting i cried over eating spaghetti a fast food restaurant i thought this is it i'm stuck and when it comes to the classism where do with it that's the word to use when food stamps are involved with school people ashamed people are shamed for that and it was interesting going back
2:54 pm
and forth between my father who at the time did have you know some money to than my mother who was putting yourself back to university so we were on a very lean budget and it is it likes to pretend it doesn't have that class structure that it got free of it but that's who we were formed by you know america anyway and it's not free of it and how exactly do you think it manifests in different ways it manifests everywhere just from if you're poor you go to the drugstore the chemist to get your face cream instead of you know the in the u.k. would be so for it is for the fancy people but it's the same people behind say l'oreal making both products or. you know they follow you in places if they don't feel like you're quite right for it or they exist all the examples of it the subtleties the if you go into a wal-mart there which is you know store by and large it's a very cheap clothing store and i think they've just rolled out a big market here but it was interesting i went into one recently and all the
2:55 pm
clothing marketed towards people of a certain means were all fluorescent and i thought you're not going to go into a store on you know rodeo drive with all these floor it was like so we can easily identify the poor people there's a lot of psychology that goes into the stuff and i i had a lot of time i suppose to think about it and your choice of rebellion like so many of the children all around the world was the only way that many of them have. fashion music in fashion and just i didn't i was very ok with being different i was very ok i was looking differently and i was ok with putting out a message of i guess i'm not like you and it wasn't. they just knew that inherently they stink of lee you know when you're from somewhere else they love making you feel like you're the freak and i just but it's not me through the country of immigration in the book you say. you hear the teacher saying we're
2:56 pm
trying to teach you the pledge of allegiance it might get the communist out of you and then you say that's how you were fascists. they didn't even get that no no historical and you know not really and the books were really wrong and the books that they taught with and you still do. i didn't put this in the book or it got cut but i was very influenced by malcolm x. when i was eleven and i was your average eleven year old reading material but i was reading the autobiography of malcolm x. and he said something that really stuck with me at that time when i'd come to america and he said why would you let your enemies teach your children. and not just kind of really stuck with me in terms of realising i didn't want their information in my head i didn't want the propaganda in my head i'll take what i want leave the rest and there was a powerful influence it was probably well malcolm x. doing known for by any means necessary some that kind of power in any kind of move
2:57 pm
of a justice it went right influenced me incredibly. i mean this is the story of the autobiographical part of the story quite bizarre the story where not to being a drug addict a drug addict you end up in rico you just. i mean stepdad you know really at the end of the day. but you're taught about drugs rehab i learned a lot about drugs rehab i learned about what they do how much street value was what they look like where the best areas are to procure them and i thought it was the most bizarre form of teaching and obviously they want to repeat customers in this particular rehabilitation center so i chose to leave it because drugs rife in. in hollywood as well would one would say the right for too much everywhere but in hollywood i'm sure yes and the meanness you saw in the streets after that when you were homeless and so would you say in terms of meanness it was worse amongst the
2:58 pm
three thousand dollars suit far worse there was a lot more kindness on the street there's a lot more kindness shown and that is something. you kind of fall into a band of people quite quickly. and i i really i think fundamentally there came from people that did tell the truth and so i just naively assumed people were telling me the truth once i got to hollywood i couldn't understand why they would lie i would think about it not that they can't be like him because what would be the motive the motive is simply to live. and this is the studio executive system which what it didn't change since the one nine hundred thirty s. was an earlier comment earlier not that it hasn't changed and the. it's the same amount of directors in the directors guild of america talk about that in the book you know and that's those are all the directors that are making the product that you see that goes into your mind and worldwide and that statistic that ninety six
2:59 pm
percent males in that d.g.a. directors guild that hasn't changed in one thousand forty six why is it being so able to prevent anyone from storming the barricades all cults are very good at that are. and supported by the media as well with the raw specifically with me the role of the media is is very much and has always been you know hand in hand as hollywood . and the government's completely hands off obviously this government's not going to be doing anything about it but the government's always been pretty much hands off except for the blacklisting era after that stopped the original blacklisting you know joseph mccarthy in the fifty's it was cointelpro somewhere in between well france actually yeah but it was the black listing for mean media the way to speak about how media treated me was that they were in fact paid often has been proven to drag me to say bad things about me for the last twenty years really and you think you're just i mean in this story it is. until julie and about the ending i
3:00 pm
mean you had this one man to a brit cancer chrysalis records to describe his story and why he was one of the one light in your life he was a light cancer was somebody who helped me out of a bad situation and i saw hope for the future and then he was murdered still unsolved and that was there's a point where i mean i say it in the book or earmarks are weird sometimes and i look at that like the ultimate theft and he was stolen and that was a really it was a seminal moment in my life and also it's just it was really dark obviously you know and that was a dark dark dark time and where things kind of went black for a while but like anything you survive it because there's no choice not everyone does right.
