disturbed homeless man illegally camping in the hills of albuquerque new mexico will soon fall victim to police bullets i don't know you would be my honor to mourn to know almost every day that goes by in the media you hear about education. jobs and health care you never hear about affordable housing. are you doing ok medically. when i started i was actually really shocked how they will be. or on the street it was like going to a 3rd world country. and this is a map that shows you the foreclosures initiated over the last 2 years every single one has for. the record i do know it's pretty well that i do know the name of the person archer. say was assaulted last tuesday he may have some booze or broken ribs . it is estimated the poverty rate for kids in this country will soon hit

in the. night as before some of the family homes to go through with. this is my last stop here and i don't know what i would do if i don't give up on the most ethical. 'd people people still have the belief that this is the law. and of opportunity that you can go out and get a minimum wage job and then you get another job pays more than minimum wage and screwed yourself up when i when i was growing up there was absolutely you know. you want to be a construction guy 2. took you dad's hammer. threw through your belt loop walked in the construction site and you told the foreman that you could you could swing

a phrase and named it homelessness you know and now it's become ingrained in our society but we know that if we can get the attention the american people and if they can really understand. this one thing that you can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing. if we can get them to understand that and we can bring the solution because everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it is. we're not. it's grew out of your.

'd all of the years. she's gone all of us we go to have her son. paul make you feel alone make you. learn you got

a daughter have to learn. a new book commuter from older. how to live kind of a light. sometimes. sky on a good have a light. cloud by a man as kind of like a school you go blank that's it's all blank as does my colt. i mean has been winner dude it's been. freeze to death. i came close once the 1st storm that came through. and i woke up under 2 or 4 inches of snow and.

was no no crowd. no shots. back she felt. no extra. point she your thirst for action. one else chose seemed wrong why don't y'all just don't call. me. yet to shape out just to become educated and in gaining strength because of the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for

common ground. illustrations but it's sports it's messed up not just what the style of speech that i. eat eat eat was the 1st year i marched or i'm going to purchase local one. for the. post but it was about. this because. of the push too much to take on most part of them or some.

from. the 1st night i was almost. jerry. first. up i didn't have the. right like. there's old kinds of scary people out here. carol you know i mean there's all kinds of scary people right and i'm from the mountains i'm from up in the mountains and then i get dropped down out here. in the middle of the

book down there you've got bugs. rog just. where do you get any worse thing you can imagine. you'd. seen it watched it. and they heard. i was a girl stabbed. it was on the news there i was right there i would like. you know i'd seen it norton. and right next to it everything else was cut next to dead guys of the drunk tank of . the sea we have heard right through you know. they're all gone. past where much. my

mom might well my father killed himself when i was 5 so. then my step dad it was my dad because i didn't even know my dad really. here he was a lumberjack up there and careless of them can set a tree fall on. him cut down a tree last thing he remembered was the tree hitting the ground so you got parallel . he died i was in prison he. was to see. my mom she died 6 a double pneumonia in 2005. but 2. thank you lord for being my friend says he holds near again in love your brother. thank you for helping me thank you for being one. and i will get by another day i will

get by another day because i will. if you had a magic wand waving giving everyone would you get. my family back. to my grandma's. or have it that. you want you know i just looked. at my grandma back you may be right that. you. don't. really think. i didn't mean it but. i know you know i did i know it. might you wanted to know.

so i said that. magic. has 0 if. you want to know what the right. chord beautician over mr uma fus says nothing because the affairs of a sad life is a graphic view of the boy in the psychological sense especially to people that would be deprived early. well then create conditions for themselves. depression growing. because the way to cope with emotions that are ition for example might. be to be get very hostile. you're going to be rejected.

and that's going to reinforce your sense of being rejected in the 1st place. or you're my to do with the pain that some variable turn to addictions and all the additions are always about. my mantra is not why the addition. and i'm sure that others do physiologically psychologically spiritually. so then people started engaging additions as a way of dealing with their pain but that addiction with the 1st. because the inner is going to deal with an addict reasonably so very difficult and painful but for the addict is reinforces that i'm all alone in order for me which makes them further. inclined to engage in behavior to do that. especially work or 27 year old said to me when i asked her what her own did for the 1st time i did her on it. and when she sings she experiences sense of love and connection.

with the endorphins doing a very. detox fusible. something muscles to scars hearing everything that it was walking towards me in an alley i'd run the other way when i asked him whether they're into for you and said i don't tell you this dog is like when you're 3 years old and you're sharing because you're sick as a kid and your mother actually no one blanket put general i don't want chicken soup with their own. love. then you ask why can't people give it up they can't give it up because the only way they found that they can have pain relief and pleasure and delight and reward and a sense of connection. so homelessness in the chronically homeless may be seen as a coping mechanism.

thank you sir. it's a hell of a charity there is day and. there was. a surprise not coming here we have a lot of that. the arts facility is what we call a low demand shelter they're very low demand is that we don't ask you to do anything it's just that they've been ordered to walk through the door other than

their security and behavior guidelines for us the definition of loaded been sheltering fluids that we're not requiring any partizan patient in a program or service in order to be in the building and there's not going to be a requirement for you to be sober to be in the building you can come in and under the influence of drugs or alcohol we just can't have you bringing it in with you so it's an opportunity to work with our clientele on sobriety issues and we'd much rather have them inside the building and under the influence than in the safety concern on the all salvageable. what we've got right now is welcome to our 3rd floor this is our dormitory floor here at the arch we were originally constructed on this property is

a 100 bed facility and they knew when they built that it was under built probably didn't know that it was in those under built as it actually is today we sleep 230 min in this facility every night versus the 100 beds that we were created with but we're going to take a look at the dormitories themselves during the nicely we're going to sleep 100 minutes here there are case management clients there in a plan they're in a program they're working on some goals that they step through their program it may be in comes to build the it may be sobriety there's a lot of different kinds of things that case management will address but every night they get to sleep in our dormitories. which are bunk beds style we have in storage and underneath each bed they love being able to store their own stuff and because they're in our shelter program in our case management program each bed is assigned overnight to a specific individual so we'll have on this floor there are 100 beds and then

overnight the way we get to the 230 is we also have the mats that go down the floors and we're sleeping in places in this building that we were never really intended sleep including our lobby our 2 conference rooms as well as our dining rooms. in our overall population profile is a 35 to 45 year old caucasian male struggling with mental health drug and alcohol addiction we see a lot of veterans in that mix too and then we've got a lot of women and children although this is i'm in the overnight shelter the demographic for homelessness. across the nation has changed in austin so different and i think that's one of the things that we as a community have got to address is the systemic generalization of homelessness and

the regenerations of homeless people walking through our doors sometimes during the day and it's just kind of something that we've got to get on. so prince this is a shelter provider but we're also a housing provider we recognize the necessity of shelter but we do look at shelter as a band aid to the issue of almost is really the solution for homelessness is housing if you've got limited housing opportunities you've got limited opportunities to house the homeless so it's really been a push in our community to get more housing stock on the ground so that we can solve homelessness and not just band-aid it was shelter. and without housing report was we put it out in 2006 we formed rat. and made 2005 and immediately started. funding trends

and affordable housing and both were all through the u.s.d.a. u.s. department of agriculture and urban through housing and urban development and because we wanted to look at it we know the shelter system started in the late 82 early 83 and by mid 1983 was across the country by 1987 the federal government had passed almost as a major program of their. what the hell happened right before that jointly everything on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to yes of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you that. during that. here we talk about all those crazy problems out there and then during the summer we have you with solutions that's right so lucian's and today we're going to be talking with oh be no sue of calling floor.

mass arrests in bella ruse the nest center of a campus and is locked down by police as minsk bracing itself for a 2nd day of protests over the presidential election results will be getting a live update from our correspondent later in the program. lebanon one time a cabinet resigned long months following ever increasing pressure of a last week's devastating blast in beirut. and france reportedly tells the u.k. it's happy trying to help to stop the increasing flow of migrants crossing the english channel as long as london stumps up 38000000 pounds. very well malcolm you're watching r t international with me and here and now our top story right now lebanon's anti

company including the prime minister has resigned following last week's devastating explosion in beirut protests have been held every day since people have been demanding accountability for the 150 plus deaths and utter destruction caused by the blast we can go live to irish now in our correspondent there paula paula good to see you could you give us the latest please. well the mood here in the last hour has become extremely volatile i am in front of the parliament building where a group of protesters are gathering in the numbers continue to climb and the police have been firing tear gas and that's why we hear with our tear gas masks now this follows as you say the raziq mation of the lebanese. havenot and the lebanese prime minister has sunday but within the last hour and a half that resignation is something that the protesters here have been calling for and they've been gathered here since saturday night now we haven't seen yet today

the kind of numbers that we saw over the past 2 nights but certainly be crowd is growing and it's likely that we'll see those kind of numbers only a 6 in or make has resigned they were under pressure the prime minister did propose is calling for 30 elections as a way out of the crisis he also suggested he could remain in government for 2 months until the major parties come to agreement but that was not enough for the protesters here are the mood is quite angry tensions are running high so for mainz to be seen whether or not the resignation of the prime minister is actually going to calm the disquiet that we've seen on the streets here since saturday night take a look at what's been happening over the past 2 days.

now it's quite difficult to hear over the loud explosions of tear gas and there is the smell of tear gas in the air this comes in what protesters are calling judgment day and i've been speaking to some of the protesters calling this a revolution but it seems that this revolution is not yet finished as protesters remain angry they remain out on the streets and we see the same kind of scenes with tear gas and live bullets or mind you that the rocky camera man was hit by tear gas yesterday. just from the tickets myself but we'll bring you live updates as and when they develop paula thank you for the update us policy ally from beirut a beirut based investment banker colors the down believes the resignations will eventually lead to positive changes in the country. i think the majority of those

that are for testing today like myself are angry. they are angry because obviously all of the $92.00 of this catastrophe and they're also angry at the magnitude of their incompetence on dealing with this as it is and it's as if the government is on its axis creates an opening for you know a new manson and new dynamic which can potentially need to a a more stable and acceptable strange way to run or to basically be able to undertake this huge. explosion in beirut has changed many lives in the city forever for one family is sunny added to their heartache they were in hospital dealing with their daughter's cancer when the blast struck the father was killed. forgive me if i did anything for me to carry or if i hurt you forgive me i love you i know of you i love you i love you for 2 hours i used to

tell him i love you oh you know you are you know i love 6 you i love you these summer months have always been synonymous with joy and celebration for sue his family the birthdays of the children and husband the anniversary of their wedding all of which falls during the sunny season but this year trouble started to loom on the horizon early when her daughter was diagnosed with cancer they called me in the morning they confirmed that it's classical heart i knew that it was informed by that time gemma's immune system had been shot to pieces but hodgkin lymphoma is not a sentence for children it's curable and doctors have been reassuring sue her husband jihad was called by the news abroad in nigeria but couldn't stay away in a crisis like this so several dozen covert tests later he came to lebanon to be with his family we slept in the hospital the same bed the same everything me her

and her gemma's hospital room was where the port explosion called the 3 of them the windows of the buildings in front of me crashing and then one by the like this. like this i didn't see if fair i didn't see my daughter i didn't see and anything but i wanted to put his head like this i felt that all smashed all all all all so much that i was not sure that he was alive i saw his soul living his body i saw it but i've answered i want to move on to another hospital jihad died right before his daughter's eyes at only 6 gemma faces 2 battles most adults would struggle to win cancer and coping with her father's death she drew for me and around. it's circle she she color that was red i knew it's her bed.

she told them who was listening he heard her and i prefer can i not i'm not i'm not able to give details because they are killing me from inside me. so can you imagine herself can you imagine the images in her a passing whenever she closes her eyes. suah finds redemption and relief in family pictures now as she relives the fondest of memories this is how we're so slow playing our head on each other because you know whenever i put my head on his saw that i feel secured even when he's around i don't go so far marcus i don't do anything for the house to fix care of everything everything yes i think a lot of clothes from my shoulder now this is the last photo of their family

those taken into custody this comes after protests on sunday saw thousands of people arrested including journalists after long time president alexander lukashenko claimed he'd won a landslide election victory. ok well we can go live to our correspondent remind closer of now for money if you give the latest developments please. ok we seem to be having some technical difficulties will try to cross live to our correspondent later in the program but for now let's go to our guest mara marine a professor of politics of eastern europe of eastern europe at the university of genoa welcome to the program it's a great to have you with islam are in the arena now see i russian union of journalists is calling on bellerose to release all the reporters detained is it likely to listen and what strain will this put on relations with russia. well i

think that there are differences between the situation of the electricity rationing below russia and the rational other countries. weakness so with this last election so was the death of for the 1st time after 1900 or looking to was not able to get the majority of the electricity or to earn the trust of people so this is very important for leadership to get so sick or so to get legitimacy from the election so this is the 1st step and the 1st problem debtor lucas chink had to face. probably he had made some mistakes also considering day he decided to implement early elections as so probably the electoral environment and especially the reactions from the civil society after some. uprising naris and some reaction so towards the reversal of the main blog gary indiana russia provoked every

action and this sort of action collective action and want people and saw these is it was a real and concrete challenge for lucas probably he didn't realize how important it was of these elections to create a more quiet and quiet environment for a result especially that he didn't take it isn't close consideration he cleaned his victory and that's the end of the story so it was and natural reaction from civil society he had to expect it because i think i was also a case poll in britain in the czech republic of trying to influence the voters how likely is that how likely is it that those countries try to cause trouble for the election. here so you know it's very important for leaders us and the leaders such as the like and look ashamed go to. to rely on informal and formal communication says so also to take into consideration the fact identity he considered himself and about. the father of the russian people saw it has to

change of their trust the 2 words he met and he described a. situation if he had and when he hadn't won this election so it's right to the money believe what to think we can consider of son that traditional values the. problems concerning the economic and also social reactions we doubt its leadership so he try to make a few fool of and idea of and in the future of the a russian without his leadership so it's not the 1st time deadly statens in such kind of a political regime so the question eases that sometimes it's so successful but this time it wasn't the end just sort of the shango as i said before didn't take into consideration these concrete reactions and it wasn't enough he's attempted to manipulate it to convince people to have trust in him again because he didn't

straight. ahead repressive reactions and it represents if this is not to the right we to convince people and especially the joy of the ball who asked for it it change the political change in their country a little signpost challenger has already had to be oppositions ready to protest for the long haul how likely is it their protests the biscoe will endure. well i think that today within jewry and in the mid term i mean it's i don't think that there was the short protestant short time reaction so i think we are the beginning of the process of the i don't know if we can still define it as a democratization but of course a long process of the reactions from civil society and of course of this is very important because. i think it also the international community has to realize that

the process the political process nowadays in the a rash is very interesting and is very important and it must be supported in different ways of course the so i don't think that that to do strategists will stop that you know sure in a couple of days but i think that it's a beginning of the new step of the the a russian politics. do you think it might be possible we say a repeat of what happened in ukraine in 2014 when the government was brought down by popular protest yes some political analysts make comparisons with might and the sphere of course in ukraine 2014 and also in the previous years is it is it possible of course it depends on the reaction of the lucas schenkel i think to history should learn that due to leaders who want to avoid and what changes such kind of reactions yes there are so many similar every tuesday could. develop in that in such a way and that's why probably the international community for instance the head of

the european commission immediately expressed their feeling sergey is about to. not transparent electric prosecutor and the need to stop the violence saw yes there are some of them got his own so some similarities with the might and and these obviously it's quite 10 feet it's a problem of course marini professor plum politics service in europe a bit about your general thank you for your time. thank you. 30000000 pounds that's the price france is reportedly demanding to up its efforts to stop migrants trying to reach the u.k. the news has not gone down well in downing street which is there to be drawing up plans to deploy the navy to help shore the do both ski reports from paris. well the clash over migrants between the u.k. and france seems to be escalating and that comes as there has been in recent arrivals from france to the u.k. which has put the 2 countries that owns the number of illegal smuggled crossings is

appalling and unacceptably high the figures are shameful france and other e.u. states are safe countries genuine refugees should claim asylum they're not reach their life's and break the law by coming to the u.k. france is apparently demanding some. pounds from the u.k. government before it says it will deal with the issue of these illegal crossings promptly on the aids now that's left apparently westminster pretty scathing this shut down those proposal saying it won't hand any will cash and less it has a hand in how the money is spent now there are also accusations that paris is trying to milk the u.k. all while these number of illegal crossings are increasing day by day let's have a look at some of the figures now so just a few days ago on august 6th 235 people made it across from

france to the shoes of england now in 2020 so far move than 4000 people have succeeded in making that crossing that's double the number in 2019 so real increase that we've seen now french patrols are trying to stop some of those migrants leaving french coastal shores and we know that the french interior minister has sort of back saying you since january its operations have stopped 5 times as many people as they did in 2019 in the same period but with the u.k. it's just north and nothing so much so you can check to predict. has announced a new appointment this is the appointment of contest dining channel direct command of the somebody who is going to be monitoring all the agencies that watch the english channel for things like illegal migration somebody who should be able to

sort the problem out and you take up with this evil suggested that it may have to use its maritime assets to deal with this we determined to stop this illegal reach into receipt for humanitarian reasons as much as anything else we're talking to our french counterparts and we in order to find a solution using maritime assets as they call it to try and return votes to france trying to prevent people from leaving france in the 1st place while talks between the 2 countries are due to continue this week but the call is taking up the moment the u.k. has the right and of the doctor who rules to said that the asylum seekers back to france but that will end at the end of the break that transition period which will finish in december 2020 so only a few months away that's of course unless the 2 countries reach a new deal something at the moment that seems highly unlikely given that the 2

countries are not seeing eye to eye on this issue. pandemic knock down some varies from country to country with some of the world's poorest facing the toughest restrictions documentary makers redfish have been following migrants in west africa here's some of what they found. as i would have been the whole month on. monday to fill. in for now that i'm to see this woman. in october offical you don't really know if you don't know people but a feel of the whole of africa today will. look for the most. worst them this. might want to add. to this is if you offer any to any arm up i'm going to then after seeing.
