thousands pay their final respects to the late lord in his hometown of houston texas the protests continue to rage across america and politicians are accused of politicizing his death. to black lives matter activists in the u.k. trouble is that you look into the slave trade and raises debate about the fairness of the range. was asleep treated in the 17th century 300 years ago democratic means to put it on statues a few statues people have been campaigning. and israel's plan to annex parts of the west bank following the green line from

washington doesn't get much support from some israeli settlers themselves. very good afternoon this is r.t. international. george floyd whose death of the hands of police in minneapolis sparks nationwide riots in the u.s. will be buried later on tuesday 2 weeks after his killing small private funeral will take place in his hometown of houston in texas and despite most the monday being dedicated to a vigil the protests have continued to rage across america. i. i . protesters took to the streets of new york the 1st day after a curfew had been lifted. chanted george floyd's name and black lives matter marching through the city without any major clashes with police further protests

across the country are expected today. meanwhile around 6000 mourners file past george floyd's coffin in his hometown of houston the final stop after a series of memorials were held in his honor but the fallout from his death has provoked claims politicians are trying to win political points democrats for example for an 8 minute silence in congress the length of time prosecutors say that floyd was pinned under a white police officers knee before he died. every american should try to stand in silence for 8 minutes and 46 seconds to acknowledge the pain of george lloyd and the pain of racism hard enough to grieve but it's much harder to do it in public it's much harder with the whole world watching your incredible family his little daughter resume i want to say daddy's going to change the world and i think her dad is going to change the world hopefully george is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country this is a great great day. in terms of equality i just want to finish by saying to save the

economy we passed several pieces of critical legislation before that. would be willing. to take credit for that. when the democrats are preparing police reforms to make it easier to prosecute misconduct and require local police to report data on the use of force police officers would also be obliged to undergo biased training and show cults another dangerous practice would be prohibited all uniformed federal officers would need to wear body cameras political commentator and contributor for red state dot com jeff charles believes there's definitely a political motivation behind the moves you know what they say right i mean never let a good crisis go to waste they're all definitely be people from both sides who are going to capitalize on what happened in georgia. to bolster their political careers it is an election year so it's hard to tell whether or not the people really

pushing for this are really wanting to affect change or if they're posturing for november the true test of whether people really want to affect change will will occur after the election is over if this is still going to be an issue that they were going to be pushing in our in our media and also at a at a political level as well then it is possible for 'd more positive change to come. george floyd's death has also made more apparent shift in the country's media culture a couple of editors from top newspapers have quit after receiving a huge backlash to want because they published about the protests and that's led some to claim that public opinion has prevailed over us journalism at morven has details. the best journalism includes balance inclusion of all perspectives and a clear headed presentation of the facts but not everyone agrees with that these days and this is what we are getting the business to do is that journalism is not

a profession of be friends journalism is a profession of agitation these words came in response to the philadelphia inquirer the paper recently published an opinion piece buildings matter to opposing the looting and destruction of historic buildings during protests 44 journalists who were later backed by jamelle hill stood in opposition to the publication of this op ed the editor in chief was forced to apologize and resign the philadelphia inquirer published a headline in choose days edition that was deeply offensive we should not have printed it was sorry and regrets that we did you also know the nepali g. on its own is not sufficient philadelphia inquirer editor in chief stan which nowitzki steam won a pulitzer prize back in the day is not the only one to recently resign the new standards of journalism are forcing others out the door 'd as well for example james bennett editor of the new york times he was forced out the door after

staffers opposed his publication of an op ed by u.s. sen tom cotton that advised the use of the army against rioters last week we saw a significant breakdown in the editing processes of the 1st we've experienced in recent years both of us concluded that james would not be able to lead the team to the next leg of change that is required so where does all of this lead it's not only watch what you write but also watch who you know as you can no longer be associated with anyone who is not actively involved in supporting these protests. sent texts to relatives and loved ones telling them you will not be visiting them or answering phone calls until we take significant action in supporting black lives either through protests or financial contributions and now it's watch what you read stop studying books that might reinforce your prejudices have you considered that

if you identify as white and read only the work of white authors you are in some ways listening to an extension of your own voice and repeat while the details and depth of experience may differ white horses have dominated what has been considered canon for eons that means nonwhite readers have had to process stories and historical events through a white author's lens to some these new standards of journalism controlling thought and action might come across as more dangerous than state censorship but those promoting them make no apologies ylem oppen artsy new york legal i'm a danise lionel believes that this event show that the public itself is not limiting free speech since when is journalism determined by consensus since when do you poll your employees to make sure that not only do you have to gear your message to comport with the world view of your subscribers but then you have to

tweak it and make sure it fits to what your employees feel what we're seeing right now as we're seen citizen. vigilantism it's not the thought police but the side vigilantes people individual citizens who want to limit opinion is through newspapers social media name it and again my beloved constitution has nothing to say about it because this only limits the government from limiting it. and what's happening is the bigger problem americans are becoming so used to so conditions so habituated to this kind of limitation of speech they don't notice it anymore he was. so what if they want to limit it that's the problem . of black lives matter protests have also been held in the k. some of the demonstrations turn violent stench is becoming something of a target in parliamentary square in central london protesters graffiti statues of

abraham lincoln and winston churchill branding that racists but in bristol demonstrators went even further. to the lead. the protesters there pulled down a statue of 17th century slave trade edward colston to stood there since $895.00 demonstrators then threw it into a nearby harbor with hundreds of people chanting blood lives much slogans it's a move though that was condemned by the government. is no justification for buyers at all and when it comes to exercise in people's voices and off to see their particular issues and concerns there are many avenues through which those voices and concerns can be raised and i made earlier on the home secretary there also claim that people are distracted now from the cause of the protest several of the

politicians called for criminal charges against those responsible for many activists claim the statue was inappropriate and that it should have been removed a long time ago it's an issue we put up for debate. why people should want to defend having a statue of a man who represents the genocide of my ancestors and i would ask and i would ask your next speak would she defend having for example the commandant of the japanese prison camp who had been responsible for $20000.00 plus english deaths what do you defend the statue being kept up there no that's not the point the point is we have to be actually sane to have justice for all people wherever they are and i think many people have heard of it what caused them before is that she came down in bristol yesterday look i understand the strong feelings around that he was

a slave trader in the 17th century 300 years ago because of what he did tens of thousands of people were brutalized and tortured and their lives are made a living hell i understand that absolutely but there are democratic means to putting up statues and taking down statues and it shouldn't have been done in that way you can go to a statue you can shout into the air all you like you can say whatever you want but it's against the law to vandalize stop using buildings and it's against the law to tear things down if you want to tear something down if you want to remove something you do with the democratic process because otherwise where is this going to end what are the protesting bristol that's going from the past and look towards the future that was in the process to bristol have been a great opportunity to force a concession to get it removed without what's going to be seen as not just as for instance people have been campaigning for decades to have that statue removed they have no want suddenly today a skull and

a concert hall have decided to remove both the name and a memorial isolation of this match into the genocide we have campaigned face years for that to her. but now you should be asking why people have the know it the reasonable request of people of color and their supporters to have such a racist abuse removed in terms of public space that it had to respond to that i mentioned was that ed wood coaster was responsible for tens of thousands of 90000 yeah you needn't now think one man with colston was work for the royal africa company and that when he was there he was responsible for exams of thousands of people being enslaved which is what i said which is not hard to say that one man actually came with the fact that joe of course of 12000000 people being taken into slavery in total in the in the whole sort of 300 year

period so that is not what i am i don't disagree with you on that but you just need to understand what i'm saying but i think the focus of what these protests need to be doing today is not bringing up you know some strange outrage over what happened 200 years you know it's a day when i say are you people are slaves today mainly in north african countries such as libya and look. french police will no longer be allowed to use chokeholds the interior minister made the announcement highlighting that officers in france are not want police in america. i mean the chokehold method known as the strangulation method will be abandoned and will no longer be taught in police schools it was a method that had its dangers in addition if a police officer has to keep someone on the ground during their arrest they will now be prohibited from leaning on their head or neck said the minister also added that 0 tolerance for racism should be applied in law enforcement and that police

will be equipped with body cameras and comes after black lives matter protests were held across the country. monday several 1000 to part of the demonstration the former police chief and french politician told us he has personally dealt with the racist offices in the country. of the police as a former chief of police i can assure you that i've investigated cases of racist police officers racist in every aspect by the way there were cases of violence of theft and others all the proceedings resulted in penalties for the perpetrators but a policeman should get used to the public having sudden changes of heart one day all citizens applaud because a policeman saved it was just when people were in danger and then on another day the same policeman is insulted by a raging crowd that want to harm him you can see. hundreds of palestinians have gathered in the city of ramallah to protest the israeli plan to extend sovereignty over the others would call it an x.

part of the west bank if implemented the plan would bring 30 percent of the west bank and permanent israeli control the move follows donald trump's so-called peace plan for the region that recognizes israeli settlement offering a path for palestinian statehood albeit with severe restrictions but now it seems some israeli settlers are just as unhappy with the plan as the palestinians falsely explains. and here in the west bank in the israeli settlement of a lot more where where you'd expect most of the settlers to be enthusiastic about prime minister benjamin netanyahu is plan to annex such areas to part of israel proper. but surprisingly more and more of them are speaking out against such a move yell as per trump's peace plan all settlement will be turned into an enclave a jewish settlement hundreds really sovereignty situated at the heart of the palestinian state now it's clear that life would become impossible in such enclaves . in me fall settlement is turned into an enclave we won't be able to leave without

a military escort there will be more bones more shootings the ones north of cocktails palestinian police will not even take us into account while the annexation would still be hugely symbolic as sick as here enjoy the same rights and privileges of people living inside israel which is why some argue that the territory has a way to defect to beam and next the israeli government enjoys the full support of the united states with the american president donald trump's backing of an expression part of the so-called deal of the century by palestinians trumps planning visions millions of them living in demilitarized enclaves mostly surrounded by israel the plan office the potential for palestinian self rule but only off to strict conditions are met setlist though israel should unilaterally annex territory without agreeing to any of the clauses in trump's plan that they see as concessions to the palestinians until now this plan is not

a good choice and i hope. will. reconsider this plan because this is a very bad plan for us is sober n.t. is our goal but if this. act come with the price of giving 70 percent of the area in order to get a permit it by united states for a 70 over 30 percent of the area no thanks i don't want to give most of the land. in order to get legitimized by the americans for the minority of the land more and more settlers are claiming that trumps no good for israel and that this plan endangers the very existence of the state of israel and that n.x. sation although it looks good for the settlements in the long run could be something bad closure from things he's a friend and he really advanced

a lot compared to the europeans but still he's not conscious that actually he's giving us more danger than good things so i tell him thank you very much for your willingness we are happy that you begin to understand the reality of the all this nation in the world who it turns to its homeland after 2000 years but still this is not enough because this is destroying our whole existence both the moral and physical sides netanyahu meanwhile is pushing to bring the topic of an exception to the cabinet for discussion as early as the beginning of next month he says annexation is another glorious chapter in the history of zionism the irony is that many ardent design is disagree policia in the short run west bank. alberta promise in canada's past a 3rd reading of a controversial bill that could see indigenous protesters find even arrested if they demonstrate close to essential of the structure coming up after this break we will look at how the story is playing out alongside the black blogs matter movement in neighboring america.

join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see if. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the jerry thinks. we are here to ask.

is it real or is that they should stay or should i go now is it real or is it fake that's the question of our age. racism protests have been raging in the united states and neighboring canada a 3rd reading of a controversial infrastructure. whose indigenous name is slave believes that the country is on the edge of real civil unrest. we would fight it on the ground you can keep indigenous people out their territory i think that you it's. huge civil unrest opposition. there and jeff not legal action.

by many indigenous peoples there would definitely be protests this is unacceptable or even the idea of going through or it being asked or brought. to consider. it's unconstitutional and so it would be in stark contrast and a violation of. every level. the bill named as the critical infrastructure defense act or bill long is designed to protect essential infrastructure from damage caused by protests and implies large penalties for blocking or damaging property and a potential 6 month prison sentence if passed the bill would protect the pipelines among other things it was the construction of one particular pipeline in fact that triggered large scale protests for indigenous rights.

on both us justice minister of the bill was brought in when there was quote lawlessness across canada he also added that the rule of law must be upheld the law but as energy minister is equally optimistic. now a great time to be building a pipeline because you can't have protests of more than 15 people if you need government claims. they want to move forward with reconciliation between indigenous peoples and the federal government that all of their actions to date in terms of. oil and gas industry and projects moving forward they are showing that they

actually want to move forward with reconciliation so their actions are in conflict with what they're saying that they'd like to do and it's just the government's been very good at rhetoric they've been talking about a right to solution approach and they should have a sure relationship but in reality what they've been doing that much saying one thing and doing another and what they've been doing on the ground is trying to promote that are rewarding agreements that basically terminate the preexisting right so conditions peoples and to a lesser newer formal right but given the you know carried out more control over the lads in resources to to hand them over to the corporations they could just can't unilaterally act as if they could do things would the layout's territories resources with corporations without including additions people should territory it is. moscow has today lifted itself isolation bills

brought in at the end of march to combat coronavirus and now an all muscovites including those over $65.00 can freely travel around the city without needing an electronic pass also from today everyone can visit ahead dressing solemn in a week's time everybody will be able to enjoy a summer drink at an outside cafe than in 2 weeks time gyms and swimming pools will be allowed to reopen and so it seems life in the russian capital is slowly returning to normal. but that is not the case in one of the hardest hit regions of russia where the situation has been compared to italy at its peak the number of infections in dagestan currently stands at more than 6000 we took a look at why the virus has been such a problem in the small region which is still under lockdown. the. only thing you can ask the big of the bunch demick was in april here in the middle of may the number of infections started to decline we usually

had around a 1000 new cases a day in much go in the surrounding areas $1000.00 per day yep the load was enormous just like a talent's would like making visits until the end we celebrated everything and that's how it has played out understanding each image up so in reality it's no different from the north of italy people just live together so there's even no need to make visits because everything is just a big home for everyone when you when you go i can understand a covert 1900 captain who lives alone all his skepticism is just for himself but in our country it has become the property of entire families there is no such perfect medical system that would have dealt with that. the holstein wished us justice the 2nd you did of course i perfectly understand that if a person doesn't believe in the existence and the danger of this infection if a person doesn't sell fine and if traditions are like that i'm surprised the situation has been relatively calm here he could have indeed been a bug in my likes and would just. let it go.

when it says once you can see that's why i'm helping her around who was the 1st one to get sick me i got sick at home and we were taken here in a gray you are brave what's most important is that you are together and you're supporting each other it is the doctor brave. here which provided the goalie sick. how old are you 8 in the middle of the what you see she's just 8 and she already has shortness of breath. i wish you good luck on looking at these numbers and you're fine and will be just charge suit.

the in. 'd the. head and unity because people didn't believe in the need to stay in quarantine at the beginning only when the 1st person died they started to be afraid of a virus and they've kerridge look i was among those who didn't believe we needed it what did you think what did you think you bring light to look at it i thought it was a flu until i got infected myself. the child reportedly has the virus this is a special box for transportation. that
