tv Watching the Hawks RT February 26, 2021 8:30am-9:00am EST
8:30 am
chicago but smaller cities like lubbock texas and shreveport louisiana also recorded their highest murder counts in decades. now of course the question is what what would cause this terrible rise in violence while some point to the strain of living under the pandemic or the rise of police violence and the national questioning of law enforcement legitimacy as factors others point to the massive surge in gun buying at the beginning of the year when the threat of lockdowns and pandemic was prevalent but thomas abbott director of the national commission on covert 19 and criminal justice bill he observes it lightly it likely takes more than one factor to create a spike of this size that means it wasn't just the pandemic or police violence or more guns it was all of these things happening simultaneously and perhaps more. so what does the violence of 2020 mean as we now start the year of 2021 well the only way to find out is when we start watching all this. on
8:31 am
a cd you want to. see this is joyce. gray's. slaves systemic deception. which. brings the old. world order and watching the hawks roll or i'm an. incredible rise in homicides and violent assaults and things of that nature across the board from small towns to large towns what do you think is the role the where why how do you think that these things have risen so dramatically what do you what's your take on this well i think we've watched a precipitous fall in people's financial safety and security particularly around jobs more and more people have been laid off some people don't know if their jobs are coming back and industries collapse but in addition to that you know we have
8:32 am
these high stress areas and high stress concerns and you're right whether you're in large cities suburban areas rule areas it seems to have touched a lot of people and irrespective to you know what certain parties would like us to believe that it's only the big cities and only the urban areas i think the data shows that a lot of people are affected right now and honestly the only thing that can really point to in terms of a direct impact is what we've seen with job crises that's true true you know when people are unemployed when people are pushed against the wall financially and they're stressed out you know tragically that is a perfect potion for violence it's interesting when you mention that some of the numbers i just want to point this out it has been a half a century since the country saw a year to your murder rate jumped nearly 13 percent in fact at the end of 2020 chicago police reported more than $750.00 murders a jump more than 50 percent compared to 2002. when you jump over to los angeles just some of the bigger cities 30 percent increase in los angeles new york city saw a 437 saw 437 homicides nearly
8:33 am
a 40 percent increase than in the previous year but having said all that. it's still a downward trend because in 2020 the homicide rate was $11.00 deaths per 100000 residents in these like 3435 sample cities 25 years earlier in 1999 when i was in the middle high school that all the rate was 19.4 percent per $100000.00 residents so we're still seeing a drop in violent crime universally but 2020 was this like weird year where it just shot up now i want to ask you this because a lot of people are kind of pointing towards well you know you see a lot on the conservative side of the argument because you know they'll kind of point and say well it's you know the lack of policing and you know the whole you know the protests we saw over the summer and i'm going to pull back from being able to prove police correctly but it's not really that is it it's not that at all and what we know what the data points to is that it wasn't necessarily a summarize that all of these these instances were happening before the summer
8:34 am
protest ever started also this summer protests largely war in a lot of the major cities the fact that some a lot of these murder increases we've seen have been outside of major cities as well point to something else and i do think that it's important to overall note as you did that murders have grossly or you know incidents of violence at that level have grossly declined over the past 15 years so yes there is an uptick you know a now versus what we had a year ago but overall we've seen decreases across the country we've seen that new york and a lot of other places too in fact many you know when those people kind of make that challenge that well we change the way police procedures due to the b.l.m. marchers and things like that and george floyd you know that's why we're suddenly seeing this rise in violence that's actually not true because. you know while arrests fell 39 percent in the summer relative to the 1st 3 months of 2020 arrests in new york have been falling for the pad this in new york they've been falling for over a decade and these big drops and arrests previous to this last year have not resulted
8:35 am
that they can. pattern that they suddenly result in more violent crime i mean i think a lot of people really they really look at it and say this is an issue of you have pandemics you have economic depression and then you combine that with tension because you saw 3 big spikes you saw one in the early spring then you saw one over the summer and then you saw one in the fall and i think that all contributes to that now moving forward how we deal with that i don't know i mean i will say this there was a hill harris poll the hill and harris poll found that 50 percent of registered voters so the u.s. government spends too little on antipoverty property measures 56 percent of those responses so there's been too little on health care another $56.00 that they spent too little. education i don't know about you measure but those 3 things that we spend so little much money on those to me would bring down the murder rate no you're absolutely correct and ironically these are things that people often throw
8:36 am
tomatoes towards when they talk about socialism but it looks like the majority of americans actually want to see policies that are more progressive that actually do alleviate some of these some of these poverty situations that lead to some of the violence that we've been seen to true true true. the volunteer state tennessee has been in the news a lot lately and it hasn't been positive this week republicans the party of free speech and individual rights it's what's more working against their own spouse beliefs tennessee republican lawmakers what university athletes to be punished for protesting at sporting events after the wave of summer protests in the wake of the george boyd murder students in particular are organizing in protesting in solidarity with black lives matter college athletes are no exception particularly in sports that both large amounts of black participation like but ball in basketball. every single g.o.p. member of the tennessee senate signed a letter after the men's basketball team at east tennessee state university milt
8:37 am
during the national anthem the republican delegation the state senate is asking the university to implement policy banning athletes from protesting at all. e.t.a.'s you coach jason say defending his team said many of us don't know the same sacrifice fear pain and loss that people of color have had to endure over 400 years he said his team is a daily reminder to me that some things are bigger than basketball. and turning to professional sports golf in p.g.a. champion tiger woods is no longer fighting for his life following a car accident that led to his body being removed with the jaws of life new information released shows the 45 year old golf giant suffers from serious leg injuries including open fractures that required emergency surgery considering tiger's past 5 back surgeries the road to recovery will be long in our interests without them urgency medical treatment he received tiger could have been at risk for amputation here to tell us more is our sports producer for gina hamm welcome
8:38 am
regina. well regina we've heard this back and forth time and time again when it comes to the fight between athletes who are protesting and what those protests right should they actually have them and it's all think you're disrespecting the flag or disrespecting those who have served our country valiantly in terms of soldiers and things like that you should not be protesting tennessee has taken this a step further they've decided that they want bees to actually be punished what do you think what should a response be and low and why are we seeing this up to these students have a voice it is the are you out there trying to make is that this is violating some free speech and it's not the 1st amendment is protecting your freedom your right to protest your free speech you can say whatever you want they are protesting because they are in their communities men of color women of color are being murdered attacked by police etc they are standing up for what they personally believe now what they're saying is these are universal looking at u.t.
8:39 am
martin you teach at new austin peay other schools in tennessee they're they're asking these schools hey you shouldn't let your athletes be allowed to do this now . the argument he made there is no case for this to stand up because these are not employees yes there are kids on scholarship but they are not employees now it's kind of like when you have employees like you should have political views fine that's all right so that's why people you know saying my retreat of whatever is not endorsement these are not playstation i mean these are employees you write say whatever they want they're not employed by these universities and the fact you're telling them well we need to find a way for you to restrict that is restricting their 1st amendment rights by the party who supposedly wants to protect them interesting isn't it but it's also a reflection of what we're seeing happen in the professional sports where you see you know we saw the reaction to collin capper nick and now we're seeing a similar type of thing happen at the college sports level where all of these colleges are making major money off of these athletes so the idea that she would have to show your responsibility to your community specifically if you're a young black person you're seeing what's going on many of these individuals come
8:40 am
from impoverished communities have had their own episodic relationships with police officers some of them even while they are playing making money in the names it seems completely ridiculous that they would now be punished for simply having their voices heard and that's the thing is these are these are people who are allowed to have opinions you are allowed to have opinion they're not saying i as a member of the eastern tennessee or you know i i as a vassal team this is my opinion and the coach going up told them say that yet totally endorse that these are athletes who are making their choices to protest on their own and good for their coach for supporting him you don't see a lot of coaches in college sports you know nick saban i'm sure would never support of his players this year like they should not done it so it's good to see that their coach is backing them up and at the end of the day it is their opinion is not their opinion of the university or speaking for the university and they say well when you put that uniform on you represent us here they do but they also still can represent themselves it is a kind of interesting dynamic but i want to actually get to this before we go because we really talk about good things on this show and i think that the recovery
8:41 am
you and the fact that tiger woods made it through all of this is pretty incredible . you know what does it look like for him right now and what will. you know we can't really predict what the future's going to hold for him he's accomplished enough at this point but you know where were things looking with tiger and his recovery i mean things will look good i mean he's going to have to learn pretty much how to walk again the injuries sustained his right leg compound fracture is very your bone is sticking out through your skin it is he's going to have to learn how walking is rods in his ankles he has pins these are not things you can see in back of the masters in or what a little over 2 months ago he might be there he might not be playing and i think you know if tiger decided this was it after again numerous back surgeries he's had a distinguished career he won the masters in 2001000 that was impressive enough if this was to be you know i'm done i think it's ok and we're grateful and we have to focus on the fact he made it out alive we need to ignore all the other things that's not what matters back that he's alive and it's kids have their father and
8:42 am
he's breathing and we should be grateful we definitely should be grateful especially if they're living through last year with what happened to kobe bryant and his family the fact that tiger made it through this regardless of what your opinion is of him as a person or as a player or if you're a fan or you're not a plan just be thankful that this guy made it through at the end of the day absolutely. be grateful after all the hardship we've been in the past year most definitely would you know always a pleasure having you on with your wonderful insights into the world of sports a little nice reprieve from all the politics of it all thank you so much all right as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on the man to the brand new portable t.v. up which is available on all platforms coming up we delve into the latest revelations regarding the united states government's involvement in the assassination of civil rights icon the malcolm x. you don't want to miss this they told me to watch the whole.

8:46 am
in the depths. or a made in the shallowness. you can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom wise words from civil rights leader malcolm x. no gimmicks this footprint on civil rights advocacy policy and organizing is undeniable his story is nothing short of amazing malcolm went from a young boy who witnessed his father's murder at the hands of white supremacists to petty feet incarcerated and turning his life around through the nation of islam
8:47 am
there he became a minister in icon and a leader that will become a world renowned for his voice and power. knuckle mex let the black live matter movement before it ever had a name. it has been a long held belief in the black community that because of the connections ability to reimagine in america stand white supremacy and tear government leaders themselves responsible for his death as we know nothing that was assassinated on february 21st $1065.00 it was widely reported that his death came at the hands and command of the nation of islam but new evidence indicates a coordinated effort to eliminate malcolm x. and the threat of his pro black message by none other than the n.y.p.d. and it be a. family members of the slain civil rights leader revealed a letter written by a new york police officer that they believe shows that my p.d. and f.b.i. were ultimately behind the 165 assassination the letter by then officer raymond wood stated that wood was compelled by supervisors at the n.y.p.d. to coax members of malcolm x.'s security team into committing crimes that led to
8:48 am
their wrists just days before spirity by the n.y.p.d. and f.b.i. to murder malcolm x. who recently left the nation of islam creating some bad blood in a timely for oil for his murder was concerned it that him and other officers were hired by the n.y.p.d. to will treat civil rights groups and find criminal evidence so the f.b.i. could discredit and arrest them but it was later evidence of an actual government cover up or is it just adding fuel to the fire for conspiracy theorists joining us now is civil rights activist and the author of at the condition of your freedom guy to sell or dimension from societal oppression spirit well comparing. perry we're going to get straight to the point here what do you make of this newly released letter and does this offer credible information of a potential government orchestrated assassination of the comics. well this is a 2 sided coin this revelation. one side. of
8:49 am
the letter cell. a surprising unmasking of our government. and the other side of the leaders no surprise here the black conscious. ego who all believe that j. edgar hoover who led the f.b.i. at the time had conspired with superman black. principals in actives they conspired to murder malcolm x. so it's a give and take in this case. i want to it's long been known that the f.b.i. and war you know n.y.p.d. and cia tracked civil rights leaders like malcolm x. and dr martin luther king throughout the civil rights era and they also targeted the black panthers and we you know recently black lives matter the black lives matter moment why did these government agencies use their full force of their
8:50 am
investigative power in labeling and treating civil rights leaders and groups you know as terrorists enterprises and getting the public to buy into some of those myths. down around the bottom line lays in the region and of america's sordid history power dominance and control. and if we go back to the best known of a stranger vote in america better. turner . gave your process we know when you've been to 2 times when america seeks to assassinate one if that leader can move people to action into it leading does not renounce violence and in my book as a condition of your freedom the fun japhet says that as a condition of your freedom you can that is now to violence and that is what made
8:51 am
malcolm x. in heat to the very country they sought to meet better to make great. temporary thing hollywood drives a lot of the interest or the newfound interest into the murders of people like malcolm x. fred hampton and others we know netflix has produced several docu series on these murders over the past year the film judas in the black messiah has provided a window into the inner workings of government orchestrated murder plots against brad hampton do you think overall these types of films make people want more answers and question government. simply this that is our hope is that cinema even though sometimes you'll do drama times can bring a kernel of truth to the american conscious of the 1992 bill malcolm x. because spike lee 1 did just that and there have been many many depictions of factual principles which in our american story. have driven people
8:52 am
to take a view back into history and really examine the stories we have been distorted we have been told and hopefully with the younger generations it will allow them and prompt them to dig deeper into america's history in order to make the country's future not the same as. you know it's interesting i read last per for a 2nd they're all poor going to back but i think what he said had a lot of power and meaning to it when he talked about the reasons as to why malcolm x. percent of such a real threat to this country you know and why you couldn't see the n.y.p.d. the f.b.i. saying maybe we need to take him out but absolutely i think that you know part of that is because they were already a little bit nervous more than a little bit nervous about black muslims in general in the nation of islam but also because not the barack megamix commanded hundreds of thousands of people this man
8:53 am
is our leadership was really strong i want to bring back to perry and ask him perry racism and white supremacy in the ranks of the police have led to the ultimate character assassination and as we're learning throughout history actual sasa nations with many civil rights leaders why do you think that this cycle continues even today and what can be done in today's cycle to stop it you know when we spread the leaders like b o m or groups rise up and then you see that propaganda machine start working against them how can we fight back against that debate. it was. i was it became of that very. paradigm of american history and. we saw from the ceiling at the capitol back to the tea party movement the white. america. a little and small. as it is
8:54 am
diminished the need to resume the old power structure in america becomes more. and sadly enough people so joe dumars who moved to a social change are sas native. and inhumane. quickly we have the spot a minute left i want to ask you parry to do you think that this kind of rise in the pooh poohing of conspiracy theorists and that kind of attack on anybody and using about a label is a negative doesn't that ultimately hurt in the long run when we're looking for truth about our history and about moving forward that there are true actual conspiracies like we saw with dr king like we saw with malcolm x. j.f.k. but then get you know hurt by everyone who immediately lays something a conspiracy theory and says you're cooked to believe that kind of thing. sadly and . that is that it is harmful that it's intense so it
8:55 am
is imperative that leaders of those who is stepping up and standing up like rhonda hamilton jet lindsay in buffalo 'd here in the district of columbia who is standing up of the residents of a village apartments or we have so many fights with must continue to be consistent because we got those governments need to the people. from the. only need to tell them. well pair i got thank you very much for all the good work that you do and getting truth out there and really enlightening people on what's going on in the civil rights movement thank you as always for coming on the show mr perry red. and that everybody is our show for you today powerful stuff whatever of the powerful stuff remember in this world it's very important to remember we're not always told that we're loved enough so that's why i tell you every week every day i love you i am tire over the world and i'm
