comedian and actor kevin hart hits back at criticism of his son's first birthday party because it had a cowboys and indians sparking a brow over race. because we've wife watched history so much few people are even willing to deal with it because they're so blind to it was i'll be the be the cowboy where kids were pretending. are broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our international action thomas certainly glad to have you with us right it is day two of the g. twenty summit in argentina to find out what's been happening we can now cross a lot of parties to try and go and r.t. america. who are in the host city. we just heard from about an hour ago could you bring us up to date. on how the day's gone so far.
8:02 pm
john holo there are well indeed it has been a very busy day for. busier than that of the leaders but at least as you just said not alone here i am with a host of r t america's scott email here thank you so much for being here with me just want to talk about what happened at the putin press conference i was there to listen to all the questions and everyone was trying to understand what their chat with donald was like because we heard from the president putin spokesperson that some sort of interaction happened and he didn't share any details a lot of our putin said that mr trump asked him a few questions about the current strait incident it was unable clashes between russia and ukraine and mr putin said he was confident he was able to send some
8:03 pm
messages across but this wasn't really what we journalists expected because we thought a proper summit was going to happen. but didn't happen because of the cancellations and some people say that there would have been many more things for us journalists to digest if it wasn't for these cancellations because there was something else donald trump canceled right well that is the thing that first of all you're right i'm glad that you got to have a press conference because we as a part of the white house press call did not ours was canceled a few hours before granted it was for the name because we just lost our our beloved president george h. bush so i understand i respect that however there's a lot of questions there's actually more questions coming out the g twenty summit from the american perspective than we had going in and i think some of the interactions is what actually has a lot of us more curious about what happened in the behind the scenes more informal meetings now president on his way and just an hour before announce that he was going to have the meeting then i don't know who was sitting by him by the. the
8:04 pm
plane or what he read or what he saw on television but the next thing we know the entire world including the russian delegation found out the president trump was canceling the meeting what i did find interesting and from the russian press conference a was president putin did point out that he explained what is actually going on within the current strait something that all of us who actually study it and besides just taking verbatim for what our advisors might tell us would do and i think it was interesting i'd be really interested to see the reaction the president might have had to because his normal perspective is that let a country take care of itself don't get involved unless on his perspective it's his advisors you say that stepped in and used to cause a little bit more of the drama but in the american perspective we have more questions coming out of it is very little information it's not just because we're not in our native tongue and in here in what is theirs but from our perspective we want to know going forward how is the relationship going to be with russia this was something the president tried to tease over and over again he always said there was one thing to invite president putin to the white house maybe that's what he was
8:05 pm
wanting maybe you want to take it out of the drama to i'd rather have him actually in d.c. so that's my thought for you going into this year how do you think what president putin do with his time while it was supposed to be during this meeting well first of all i don't know about the white house invitation i don't really think it's happening and me longer since he even counseled the summit speaking of the time that the spare time so to say that you got out of this well he chose to mean the president won but they seem to me almost every month right now they want to show that they can do this for as long as the conflict and the potential crisis there is just so serious and they want to show the entire world that they can deal with it together and he just chose to do this one more time but i guess for the russian side what's more important is that a lot of putin was still able to talk. to some of the other important western
8:06 pm
leaders like angola merkel they were talking just what a few blocks away from here the hotel water food was staying and the manual macron and he was also able to bring the russian message across and explain to them what really went on with the kurds straight i just want to go back to donald trump i mean everyone noticed that he was really gloomy what do you think the reason for that was and was it something that the american media and press though this is well of course the american president in most of the sneezes or if he has three scoops of ice and they're going to notice those sorts of things but having watched president donald trump and can't you have to go between the paris and two weeks ago and his temperament there and this weekend where he was supposed to walk into this this was supposed to be his party you had a lot of these elected officials merkel even though both of a met whether she's on her way out she's not going to necessarily be president in the next year you've got a lot of populous movement that elected leaders on the same reasons why donald trump was elected dealing with immigration securing the borders law enforcement so
8:07 pm
this should have been something he would have been very welcome to and was going to have a full tango dance card unfortunately because of events walking up to it i think a lot of people decided you know what i'm going to stay away from this and go with more safety issues the problem is coming out of it the united states white house is already declaring i was a successful g. twenty they think because they were able to expose some of the corruption in the banking and get everyone to agree to it that they did their job unfortunately we still don't have a trade agreement with china that's going in our trade or by january first we do not have a solution to what's going on yemen we've not held the saudis accountable for any of the issues there or with the death of a journalist or shoghi got a lot of questions out there that will be interesting this upcoming week if we're actually going to have this press conference with donald trump promised all of us who followed him down here to argentina and you know i actually don't really think that donald trump is happy with having to play this role of someone who needs to ignore a lot of money putin because of some people telling him to do so perhaps some of the advisor. having to ignore mohamed been so money really this is an extraordinary
8:08 pm
situation for him because he wants to be the man who's given the high fives not that he's a socialite i mean that's what he would love to do he was a very popular person prior to running for president he likes to be the king that holds holds court and in this case all of them do to a certain extent but they all got along in fact prior to even being elected president on time parades presidents and i think we're going to get along we agree on a lot of these things this camaraderie and respect it was amazing how much in just the last two years that has taken a step backward the problem is it's to the detriment of not only the united states and russia but the entire world because we live in a very global technology as well as economy as well as physical security there's like dominoes if there is this much if these two power players don't get along guess what a lot of other smaller countries are going to feel the effect there's another big piece which is china and the meeting has just wrapped up but we don't know what came out of it and i just want to ask scottie if there's anything that's coming out
8:09 pm
of the u.s. press poll or at least maybe they're expecting donald trump to say something when he lands we'll i'm just waiting for the tweet i mean that's what the this weekend is literally been set as a press call our agenda has been set because of twitter several times that's where we've got our news that hasn't come from official white house documents it's been what did the president next the only problem i see that's coming out is the president the white house press was pushing the white house to put out before the chinese press pool is breathed and that's that's interesting because usually at the white house and on top of it making sure the information gets out there but it did last two and a half hours that's a lot longer than it was supposed to be and the initial meeting both of these groups have to come to some sort of consensus or you're going to see higher tariffs from the united states going onto to the chinese or the chinese who do own the majority of the twenty trillion dollar debt could also call that card and so both of them have real reasons to come to the table and play ball well this is really something that will stay. we'll have to find out scotty right and indeed the final
8:10 pm
event of the g. twenty we don't have a press conference by paying we don't have a press conference by donald trump perhaps that will make us realize that something's in there after both these leaders around the world maybe we'll hear from the press balls i don't know thanks so much later all of them have very active all she does and she does she have a good the chinese do have i think that consulate does actually have a console and does a little bit or doesn't know but we definitely is not as active as donald trump thanks so much for joining me here and one aside as. host of r.t. america and our teams are national correspondent frank go back to you in moscow all right thanks and also to. you guys go and have a little bit of relaxation catch up on twitter as you guys have been talking about and maybe have a drink just to relax as well thanks ok now we heard from
8:11 pm
a former republican congressman michael patrick flanagan he gave us his views on the g. twenty summit so far and president putin's remarks about the strait dispute with ukraine. these summits are not designed to come to conclusions at least as far as i understand them they are designed to give the world leaders a chance to air confusion and misconception with each other and to make their points mr putin took advantage of the opportunity with mr trump to draw a map and say you know this is this is what happened with this is where it was this is our position and we believe it's true and righteous be very forcefully made his point he didn't didn't get lost in the details he didn't get confused. he believes he believes is the truth and stated it plainly there's not much more you can ask of any leader than that and i think mr putin is doing a fine job the summit seems to be successful as far. as which in gears now central paris was brought to. standstill on saturday by the so-called yellow vest movement
8:12 pm
against soaring fuel prices riot police were out in force using crowd control weapons more than one hundred people were injured including our very own peter all over who was hit by a rubber bullet here is what he witnessed throughout the day. these demonstrators have been very clear in what they've wanted to say they want to say the fuel prices are getting too high and they want to say they're unhappy with the current government headed up by a minute they were invited to a meeting on friday. by the prime minister of france that meeting well it turned into an obsolete boss only two out of the six main leaders they were expected to did turn up out of those two one of them left off to less than two minutes this is a very very fluid situation we see riot police moving in one of the demonstrators
8:13 pm
falling to the floor right there actually we see we. actually is remove into this we're seeing riot says riot police tear gas everything you can possibly imagine as they try and take away that one person who fell to the floor. oh god. i'm just next to where you've actually shown those pictures from they will say to paint a picture of what situation looks like here at the arc de triomphe in paris says you have a central new killer of police in full riot gear fully equipped we're actually seeing tear gas trying over our heads right now i'm going to be moving out of the
8:14 pm
way as i'm talking to you that's really not safe for me to be stood there doing that it's also not to just explain what was happening the place that you can see located just over there which was exactly one hundred eighty degrees from where i was facing they just fired several rounds dangerously close over my head right then that's something i've certainly never seen by any riot suppression force used in europe. that. they have been numerous incidents of people being hit with rubber bullets legally cliche as off the hospital i was hit me on kill with will myself thankfully my boot bearing most of the brunt of that but those demonstrate is that i spoke to they say they aren't going anywhere and they told me exactly why they've come here they suffer today to say no to the rise in fuel prices but also to say no to president's money well my compliments he managed to should be put first not money it's not
8:15 pm
impossible you know you come to these protests because you don't have enough money to survive till the end of the month then you find out you're more privilege than the others there because you earn more than one thousand erode a month or so back to so we already work in the minimal tariffs for social insurance and i don't understand what will the next glide to be sure we can do the bare. account to provide good conditions for patience i don't know for sure who's to blame for escalating the situation the police or the yellow vests but they are fully on the side of protesters as long as the peaceful micron is not credible he wasn't credible even at the time of the election about eighty percent of the population stand by the yellow vest movement that indicates that france faces a huge number of issues we'll do everything to make a manual micron resigned on the deck think we are being taxed from all sides we work we study we raise our children now we are overtaxed so stop moving the problem
8:16 pm
aside. well even the time that that sound by was running we're seeing more room or problem spark up around here is a fire herod set up as a blockade across the street of one of the streets off of a new five and this isn't the certainly isn't going anywhere anytime soon and one of the big issues that i am seeing from this whole situation in paris is that it's not just one new kilis there isn't just one group that the police all trying to contain what we all seeing is numerous numerous numerous groups each with equal anger on intent was the way i was was.
8:17 pm
that opinions and emotions are certainly running high here in paris right now we've seen and as we saw when i was trying to speak to you earlier on a number of people incredibly upset particularly with the french media they thought we were from one of the french broadcasts as they were insisting that we stop broadcasting once we told them that we weren't well now we've been allowed to again speaking to a lot. amount of the police that have been taking paulus in this operation in paris on saturday you'd be surprised how many were willing to say off camera that they were actually a new supports of those that were demonstrating against low of fuel costs however that certainly wasn't represented in some of the the violent scenes that we've seen from say violence from police towards demonstrators also from demonstrators towards police really uncomfortable scenes that we've seen throughout the day here in the french capital i would expect that if there's no solution found during the week we would be seeing the same types of of violent clashes again and again and again here
8:18 pm
in the french capital until this is sold out still to come a children's party has been widely criticized for inciting racism that story much more after a short break this is our internet. what . they put themselves on the line they did accept it or reject it. so when one of the president. wanted. to go to the press to see what the three of them ten people. interested in the water. donald trump doubts of a meeting with vladimir putin doesn't seem like
8:19 pm
a big deal given the already polls states of affairs between the two countries most of the manner in which it was cancelled over twitter may sting the kremlin more than the cancellation itself is the mythical truth in a bromance finally over. this is r.t. international live from moscow a wild western children's party has made it more than a few people live it after american actor and comedian kevin hart held a famed event for his one year old son's birthday. and his wife posted several images of the party on instagram showing their friends and family clad in native
8:20 pm
american inspired tribal print blankets and that made many people angry online saying that playing cowboys and indians is just not acceptable anymore cowboys and indians can you not afford a publicist who would explain the reality if such a terrible idea. throw in a cowboys and indians birthday party on thanksgiving celebrates genocide white supremacy and slavery maybe next year he could have a master slave owners and slaves party people need to understand the genocide of indigenous people in this country it was horrific and nothing cute about it stop perpetuating this as cute it's not. well for his part kevin hart says the criticism he has been getting points to some deep problems in modern culture. conversation we're having here is why the implications are much broader at first glance oh it's just a one year old's birthday party but here's the thing about it
8:21 pm
a lot of the decisions we make as adults are based on information that we received as children the truth of the matter is that some of that information was incorrect when you were a child and you say i want to dress up like india and we can argue whether it's indian whether native american the child does not say now i get to realize the fact that these people are racially inferior to me and i can celebrate the subjugation of these people by virtue of white forebears and that's not what happens is it's a child who says i like to dress like that because we whitewashed history so much few people are even willing to deal with it because they're so blind to what's been really going on around them as we believe that that'll zakk what was behind this statue or peel back when behind this giving celebration lay began well the legal side a real issue when we played cowboys and indians we never said can i play the cowboy
8:22 pm
so i can slaughter the plains indian no it was i'll be the indian you be the cowboy we're kids were pretending but what do you pretend to do with them you pretend to shoot them you pretend to tie them up your scientists shoot them arrow while we're talking about is little kids who are innocent at each juncture of these moments in history where we unveil the truth we get closer to ensure wrestling the real underlying issue of racism in america this is going to right now show the rest of the world with all due respect that and i mean this how absolutely pathetic this is. that seemingly grown adults are talking about the racial implications and the appropriation of culture from little kids who want to dress up like indians. it has been claimed that google staff discussed how to downgrade conservative
8:23 pm
outlets and search results to influence u.s. elections came to light after one of the outlets mentioned the daily caller said it got a hold of internal google communications arteries nichiren has more. let's face it a lot of our news these days tends to focus on one man what he does what he says what he looks like but if it was up to google your reading list on the donald would be limited rather than limitless oh google i want to believe it when you say that you are non-biased platform but it's not so easy when all these stories claim to prove otherwise and here we go again this time leaked messages showing conversations between employees who show was what it really takes to be the right fit for google committed passionate dynamic not to mention super liberal and anti trump this was an election of false equivalence is and google sadly how to handle
8:24 pm
it let's concentrate on teaching critical thinking a little bit of that would go a long way let's make sure we reverse things in four years demographics will be on our side are you working for an online search engine or the resistance well apparently you can do both when you are on the payroll of one of the most prominent tech giants on the planet when donald trump won the keys to the white house it came as a shock to many of us at google the news was a disaster that was the first moment i really felt like we were going to lose and it was really being for it did feel like a ton of bricks dropped on my chest i wonder who they voted for. and like with any loss the google employees seem to pass through the stages of grief shock depression denial anger someone needed to take the blame and who better than those pesky conservative websites how many times did you see
8:25 pm
the election now card with arsons from opinion blogs breitbart daily caller elevated next to legitimate news organizations that's something that can and should be fixed and i think to see him. here just an innocent chat between some employees about how to manipulate search results which google absolutely one hundred percent does not do anymore there was that fact check feature which appeared to spend quite a lot of time targeting conservative websites only and repeatedly attribute it false claims to those websites even though it never made them in the first place but that's being removed now anyway so no harm done but wait there was that other time that google and you choose chose to simply ban conservative channels it doesn't like very much even you also truly r t and our colleagues at sputnik have been the ranked the google guys clearly not fond of questioning more and the cherry on top of this rotten sunday is actually getting fined billions of dollars by the
8:26 pm
e.u. and twenty seventeen for what oh manipulating search results i would say a good time to turn it down a bit is when even dylan trump himself is catching on to you on six but you said it yourself right off the trump one something needs to be done because it sets forth be very vigilant in thinking about all these issues what can we do to you to. maybe better quality of governance decision making and so forth time to pour some ice on the situation our processes and policies would not have allowed for any manipulation of search results to promote political idiology or watching our international.
8:27 pm
we should starve if you pay to discuss where we can put chancellor merkel runs has said we have built up a lot of riches between germany and europe and russia. to destroy bridges is quite easy and very fast. but to me proof would take a whole lot of. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer it be willing to bet the money just because they think that's the way or think the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict respond innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying and
8:28 pm
those just know it hasn't been that we're even many victims' families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victim's families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way. to.
8:29 pm
