i didn't say. i think it's pretty much cleaning up your must i was being too lazy to actually have transparency in my mind my mind immediately goes towards you know look you guys are shady you're than shady i'm sorry news of one afternoon this is very strange not give me you know edward snowden stuff were all that new james clapper lying on the hill all of this says that you guys are a shady organization at the end of the day and that you are covering your tracks that's my opinion but i would be very curious to see what goes missing in the long run with all this quote unquote cleaning up of technical and regular sperry very odd to be all right as we go to break watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered a facebook and twitter see our poll shows that are t.v. dot com coming up it's not just independence day it's being celebrated in united states this week it's also the anniversary of the signing of the civil rights act back in one nine hundred sixty four we discussed the state of u.s. civil rights with proper walk up to the.

1:02 pm
that's sort of the. gold. donald trump will soon visit europe has a very busy agenda and it's unclear what kind of reception people get topping his i ten or where he will be trade relations nato and russia never before has an american president been expected with so much apprehension. for pleasure a do loop is when the interest on the debt is greater then your taxes taxable base then you have to throw down all pretenses of quantitative easing and just admit you want monetizing debt such a bank is just printing and buying back its own debt to do
1:03 pm
a little less then you get into what's called a banana republic named after countries that want america that typically are in the but out of business will end up doing this monetization of their own dead and collapse or currencies venezuela argentina come to mind this is down going to be contagious and going into america. as we mentioned this week here in the united states we celebrate our independence day on july fourth but the first week of july also celebrates another great moment in american history and july second one nine hundred sixty four president lyndon johnson signed into law the civil rights act a certain quote if government is to serve any purpose it is to do for others what they are unable to do for themselves this came after years of sweat blood and protest by
1:04 pm
a black american seeking to overturn hundreds of years of oppression and discrimination both legally and socially following the end of the civil war and slavery the historic act representing the biggest changes to civil rights laws in the united states since the post civil war reconstruction era as politico recaps the agd outlawed racial discrimination in employment education and housing barbara szell segregation and all state sponsored public places such as schools buses parks and swimming pools and outlawed discrimination based on race color religion or national origin in hotels motels restaurants theaters and all other public accommodations engaged in interstate commerce exempting only private clubs without defining the term private but now fifty for you. years later the fight for civil rights still marches and joining us today to discuss this ongoing fight for equality as the country celebrates its independence from oppression is author educator and speaker baltimore's own do you walk thank you do you know it's a pleasure to have you and the signing of the civil rights back in sixty four i
1:05 pm
think everyone can agree is a pretty watershed moment in contemporary u.s. history but it also happened fifty years ago and i just want to start by looking at the victory. you know for black citizens of the united states you know how important was the least that victory coming into today. is so scary when you look at it through like a historical wins because you have this landmark legislation you fight for and people lost their lives for they you dream about quality looks like you can feel like the did you get the end result in this to same thing there's new laws there's new codes there's different ways to be able to enforce or have the same oppression or large groups of people in this country so it's like. you know it's bittersweet because you'd like to see your hard work you know pay off but in the end result is like more to say. it's very strange when reading this idea that it stopped all of
1:06 pm
this discrimination and yet in the last week or two weeks we have seen you know. black americans because all we've called up the place called on them for being in swimming pools for being at a park for being in places selling women a selling lemonade the people being separated from their children right you know back to this thing of being like i thought we have this discussion a very long time ago so you know while legally the civil rights act and the. legal discrimination we're going to end the discrimination against black citizens we're still seeing having to fight for the exact same thing all over again so one of the biggest civil rights. i think we have facing the u.s. . if you're black and poor. or poor. you know or just poor. here are not going to get
1:07 pm
a fair shake in america desk just what it is a country based on capitalism you have to pay to play certain information that we have in there we put out on this television show some of the people who need it who could benefit the most don't have access to it because you don't have a television or you know any means of getting the information and it's just not there but we are fighting a war because there's so many people who are able to just benefit in this country from so many different things because they have access in a lot of people don't and again just to circle back on the idea of this legislation and celebrate you know. everything that you think we celebrate i mean the thirteenth fourteenth and fifteenth amendment free slaves in black people were able to get citizenship and then universal manhood suffrage black men were supposed to be able to vote and look how long it was for black people to be able to vote and i
1:08 pm
long it took for women to be able to vote look at the years of pain and struggle that goes behind laws that are already in the books which just goes to so we have to rethink how we fight. and i was going to say like the struggle is like women women's equal rights almost the same thing that johnson signed in sixty four they tried to change the constitution of the one nine hundred eighty and failed it's look it's. like oh now it and that brings up this interesting thing of like you know i'll ask you both even in your where does the passing of laws or legislation fall short in the fight for equality because it's a kind of over and over going to the theme that we're talking about as you can pass the laws. but that doesn't mean that society necessarily is going to change voting rights for black men is a really good example because that was one of the things that came up during women's suffrage why are we not doing this together are you know this but there was this idea that you know well if we can prove that this black man fought on our side
1:09 pm
then it's easier and it seemed it was baby steps and so it's like you wait you weigh but it sort of proves the point that white men are put on a certain pedestal and if you're a woman already in black that we are literally have to fight just to be treated the same but the rich white line. and this is why you're also to get this table one hundred years ago we would not always none of us sitting at that attitude and it's crazy because i don't want to be that person to frown upon the people who put in all of their hard work like us to like to be valued and we should celebrate the but at the end of the day not to play monday morning quarterback but we have to look at the results because if we don't start looking at the results of these things we will never ever ever see anything change it's no way i could proudly wave a flag around tomorrow and say happy for what i know that there's thousands of people in prison who should be in there thousands of black people see for
1:10 pm
nonviolent crimes sermon time you know whereas if this kid was white they would be home right now enjoy it's on with their families there's no way i can celebrate that will be a part of that and i think. again until we acknowledge you know our system has fallen short because national politics and local politics are two different things so yeah you can have this big federal bill but at the sheriff is the one running the boating booth then you graham of another going at a vote so you know so we got you know we got to rethink how we how we do things in a proper pressure on every level. and changing society is not something like that i agree changing society doesn't happen just because someone writes a book. you know it's a constant struggle it's a constant effort to keep society moving in the direction you want to move it seems like there's like a there there we sort of lost the thread of the work keeps going when you have to enforce the things that happened because look what they do years later what are
1:11 pm
they going to do what they come up with a million rolls they put a bunch of black men in prison and then hey guess what they can't vote anyway you want to you but if you want to connect the dots in all of this right the of we always find a way to come out on top so like you're the person at the spirit you spearheading this movement to fight whatever fifty years ago you know a hundred years ago if you were a person would mean you are still going to be able to have quality of life you are still going to be able to do things like vote you are still going to be able to find a way to slip through the cracks and everybody else at the bottom fighting with each other a lot of what i love what i won't put back in chuckles everyone at the bottom is fighting with each other and nothing changes that in the people who are lucky enough to experience social mobility in a country that promotes it what it really happens once they get that little to this table they don't flip it over they get comfortable to keep their feet up and just relax i think that's what we do that it's you know this idea that you know we did
1:12 pm
all this work we fought for independence here and civil war and everything else but did we. really do the work that needed to happen after at all and i think it's disrespectful at the end of the day that when you look back at history like he was saying and we're saying is that when you see all these people who did lose their lives who did fight tooth and nail spent their lives fighting for equality spent their lives to free slaves all of those things you know the slaves and so we owe it to them in today's world to carry on that torch you know we owe it to that history to say no we're going to keep fighting it's not just as a law got passed in sixty four and we've got to change the way we fight i think that's the most important thing that i would like people to take away is like you you know. you should vote yes you should elect corrupt people out of office you should do all these things but at the same time you have to understand that the people who are controlling some of these systems on a local level they've got to go to just because the laws passed doesn't mean it's going to make it especially if you don't have the means to do anything about it
1:13 pm
that that's what it really comes down to it seems like a lot of these discussions i was going back to that fight between the super wealthy and the rest of our business i think believing that politicians are the answer no matter who you vote in they you know there's a million things that can happen between that person going i want to do this so there i think you everyone who voted for obama. want to guantanamo close are saying they're going. exactly are going to make things and the truth is like because it's not a magic wand just because you get voted into office we have to do what we have to stop letting that happen and we're the ones who have to speak up and. people like you and i who have the privilege of being able to speak loudly and do that we have to that is what i think is missing as we get comfy we get comfy. where you are saying when my father was governor for four years minnesota he said the biggest bargaining chip he had was the will of the people behind him once anybody felt like
1:14 pm
the will of the people was no longer like out in the streets and right in the right in the letters and doing all that then that politician loses that leverage that they have to change to make change once they're like. yeah and there's nothing you can pretty much nothing you can do about it i mean just the cycle continues and we end up going down the same path over and over again until people are educated so that information that you're talking about gets out there to all people the i got always thank you for coming on always a pleasure good conversation as always thank you so much for coming on the walk and as author educated educator and speaker of. the max planck institute for astronomy in germany was using the spectral solar it polar metric high contrast exoplanet research. instrument known as the spear on the european space agency's very large telescope yes that's the name and sphere gave the world a very large first the birth of a planet and it got a picture of that little planet uses
1:15 pm
a very large telescope has previously tracked stars around a black hole the after glow of a gamma ray burst and carbon monoxide molecules in a galaxy almost eleven billion light years away and the sir instrument is no slouch either designed for exoplanet research the instrument operates in visible and near infrared which means it can create an image quality and contrast far exceeding what we've seen before the birth of the world billions upon billions of miles from earth makes you wonder how we could spend so much to prove a world exists but we struggle to find ways to save our own maybe seeing this image of a baby planet will remind us of what we have certainly hope it goes and when you said spear of course my mind that really jumped to a dustin hoffman green motif for a movie underwater i didn't realize it was a cool space. is another i aspire to be very sad writing about it if you. remember everyone in this world we're not told you're loved so i tell you what i

1:21 pm
fourth of july i'm calling your global headline news a little bit later but not until we've brought you up to speed with the best of the world cup from the past twenty four hours with daniel holkins in st petersburg. well. rob you watch this from today well it's too. late besides the news even square breathing in history such a pleasure to be covering will come from here but it's not just about history it's about the football in the. last sixteen states of the world cup is now wrapped up in the tournament stepping into the last in the serious business about to take place in the in those quarter finals and we could be more excited of course to be covering it competition really needs help now some spectacular football lies ahead
1:22 pm
going head to head with france and brazil face belgium on friday as well some real crackers coming up now as well yeah and then on saturday all eyes will be on the host country russia as they clash with croatia and of course that same day sweden taking on england as well most of the action moves to the south of the country russia against croatia will be played in sochi and it would be an understatement to say this is a patient is building across the country as the world's largest country starts to root for the home team yeah good to see russia doing so well a surprising lead for them to get this far many saying they wouldn't get out the group they would beat spain look with the no record for more football russian history national team history the former world champions out set in the twilight setting moscow as well atmosphere there in st petersburg here as well the atmosphere is fantastic isn't it yeah really has helped the fact that the russians have done so well helped in getting. the locals and the host nation really on board
1:23 pm
with the atmosphere of the tournament's now that england colombia match in moscow last night wrapped up the last sixteen stage and it had everyone on the edge of their seats the game finished one last extra time in winning four three seems absolutely finally breaking that penalty cassell talk a bit more about later let's take a look at the highlights all of that game that brought the final. england to the quarterfinals and one step closer to. now coming home. with you. when i. would have been
1:24 pm
. and hand. when the the with have. i and notional game we played well we are lucky if we see them and also we carried on you know we stuck together and i was emotion for fear and so. it's always difficult with emotions. so proud of. proud of each other and proud for the fans here and. we made a great effort well now it's time to raise our heads and prepare for what's next but you know it's painful we did all we could for. really dramatic evening
1:25 pm
last night now here's what i. thought about that clash between england and colombia . the colombian players they gave everything for one hundred twenty minutes they should be really exhausted after two hours of such and then there some more from our point of view because we actually motions won. by danish point of view the more important thing you know we go compete in the quarterfinals great job and people. you can foreclose on the quality or. you shoot for the longer form and then. you are not. working we change the exterior of the competition so you can. go far enough and having for the finals where we were sick or a share i would say that in her golden chance to be in the world cup final. of
1:26 pm
course on any taps and to school that penalty some are already saying is going to go down in history as indeed the goalkeeper of course takes a fact some some tweak to saying. things about that but nevertheless of course the young team has done very well indeed and great to see a team you know relieve the pressure that you know the golden generation faced. on the performance and not quite as heaving what they were always predicted to do this team is so young you know nineteen twenty is on a mass and having the pressure on assad is you know fighting for your country on the football field and now finally you know. three lions make it to world cup quarter final. for the first time. in a while but you know more about this than i do suppose. it's been it's been difficult for know that so-called golden generation we heard stories coming out year. that there were little plex within the dressing room the united players in
1:27 pm
the little four players didn't talk to each other on the chelsea players but this team as you mentioned correctly then young this is from the outside the better sense of unity within the team and i think what else is important is last night. winning on penalties is next to such a huge weight of their shoulders and in fact before last night three penalty shootout said lost all of them in the euros they'd had only one one penalty shootout euro ninety six against spain so in that always had this thing with penalties one of the worst regulation is a national football so for them to win in that style really will help the players confidence going forward and they came into this tournament with not a lot of pressure on their shoulders and now they'll be looking at it and saying we can win this was tense another thing and might just blow all that gold and i'm a six for fairy came pushed into the race for the golden boot as the world's top scorer in england erupted with that victory last night and as you might expect
1:28 pm
there were scenes of pure jubilation one thousand was. following england's win and the huge success of the world cup twenty eight hundred twenty minutes here in russia so far many back home in the u.k. are lashing out at the government's stance on the event and they've been focusing a lot of their anger at the british foreign secretary. to the world this july. this summer i think it will be very difficult to imagine u.k. representation at the bench could go ahead in the normal way it.
1:29 pm
isn't it time you called a journalist for tellin him friends not to go to russia and to think that clown boris johnson wanted to pull england out of the world cup can you imagine how many more england fans could have been there to enjoy it if boris johnson and the u.k. media had not been soldiers of world boris johnson and to reassure me advise grits to boycott russia's world cup so they have no one to blame except the reason that was used by was different to what the media was saying was that we spoke to. find t.v. or know you're in touch with him as
1:30 pm
a big fan of course you know people saying i have come to russia or will be coming to russia because i'll be mad it's going to college just give you may have people really you know i think fearing for their lives in some cases and experience it can be farther from the truth thousands of us i mean a lot of people yes i mean during my time here in russia i managed to meet up with robbie lyle from also scientifically and as you correctly said you know yourself and i went to that game between c.s.k. moscow and also in april and the same thing you know romney was saying he's got a fantastic time the major players have dominated the world of football for the last decade christiane allowed their rival. message you can only accepts one song both and love saying we're going to be too old for the next world cup machine perhaps they couldn't perform as people expected portugal argentina failed to make it through the following rounds. and city and football yeah got married so that he's been right.
