inten the big geo political beef then are picking their teams and taking signs into why am sure. just some news coming into us on the program the area surrounding the u.s. capitol building in washington d.c. is under lock down over what's being described as an external security threat the d.c. fire service said it's responding to a shooting there are reports that several people are injured including 2 police officers but i must stress that's not been officially confirmed there is though as you may just be able to make out in the background a heavy security presence a police helicopter as well was seen touching down at the east entrance several. at the scene as well we will of course keep you updated on this story of a reported shooting at the u.s. capitol building which of course all riots in january and has been very much in the news of late. the history of african americans is

a well documented subject but what about the experiences of non whites in the soviet union a fascinating insight next into that period on people in our documentary block in the u.s.s.r. stay with us you. know what started my interest i should say black americans in the soviet union in the thirty's was finding this portrait even though i'd gone to grad school for the master's degree in russian literature speak russian and i had lived over there in the late eighties finding this portrait was was a stunning development for me how did i not know about this. i didn't know that this was a phenomenon that there were many. african-americans who went to russia in the in

the thirty's. in the 1920 s. and thirty's several 100 african-americans moved to the soviet union and many of their descendants still live in russia. the name at the mosque and on the west but also up out of stock yes you've got. russians that i meet here the 1st they're like hey you're part of that i want to speak russian and then like wait wait wait. they mash it all. back home black american suffered from racism and a complete lack of prospects. now as the. news that the lump us love the deal not be a losing still remain. as my 3 of them below see issue and one by else. but by doing. so they decided to leave everything behind and start

a new life in the country about which they knew almost nothing at all some of the or ask your troops who are workers who really do need to know to clear the ground grid. to move a few you're going to school. you. go as much in a significant crossing on a from the court of appeal as you grew up and now almost a 100 years later the history is repeating itself my great grandfather george time went to russia. on probable worst time to go anywhere why not mean. when i come here. to. my above as well it be at that exxon that lick od oil you've got to pull them.

off and i'm like i need some of them up by somebody in the addition of my about bush which is much of this is i suppose. dealing deal with this. i need a gun so pulling a slick on the team i don't wish to win it was thing at the boucher misled by me a ticket mixed race couples or such an issue in the united states i think rarely because of all of the jim crow laws of that intense. hatred of african-americans so this notion that you could mix. was was absolutely. you know impossible for many whites to accept that it was illegal in many states but you all my. know what benefit the most on your children needing is not. so much of

a thought or. bullshits that i knew. or i see as much below which in particular this is a very new country being since it has a constitution they're actually. close to racial and gender and all this return to discrimination my grandfather george times. is from. virginia. and he ended up in russia in the most peculiar way he was able to land an amazing contract with the ministry of agriculture in russia and he. got in a boat and then in the soviet union in 1930 s. it's important to remember that this was the period of the great depression and it was also a period in which the soviet government was during

a massive recruitment people with turkey because. he graduated university as agriculturist there is no career moves there's no jobs and there's so much discrimination what he's supposed to do he went to a country where. key had no clue what was going on and you watch russia on the news soviet union communism why would you want to go there george times had a dream. and he found a solution and. history for some of the african-americans who went to the union in the 1930 s. . look at. cern james crabbers. james patterson became

a national icon. famous circuits. at. the movies circus as an extraordinary story behind it i think it was said to be stalin's favorite. as you see in the opening scene there's a woman running from a an angry crowd and threatening her and throwing rocks at her and at the bundle says been carrying is her black child. this german impresario at the climax of the film reveals the truth to the audience in the

circus that she has a black child and of course the soviet response is so what do we care we don't care if he's purple polka dotted. and then he goes yearly is passed. to various members of the audience policing him a lawyer by one of the languages of research. i mean it couldn't be more. saccharine and more propaganda stick by it but it hit all the right nerves at the time as explained credibly popular even the song should have. should have that on them. was even a sort of a defacto anthem of the soviet union.

it's definitely fear to say that those who appeared yunior were the crown and leader and anti-racism. government. if you. think. you're. right think michael we. all know. that little black boy from the circus movie is now $87.00 he was born and raised in the soviet union he served in the navy as a submarine and he became an also he went short stories in the early 1990 s. after the soviet union collapsed. to the usa to his father. who lent to translate his work into english in our lives alone in

a social apartment in washington. or mina. moon they. want to go all. valuable. through all do you. through their. baby boom the. now so real do. they believe there. could be. jim's father going to patterson like many other african-americans moved to the u.s.s.r. to work on a contract basis but he loved the country so much he stayed and started a family here he travelled in circles in the soviet union and moscow there he would not have in the united states had a wife. 3 son this career he was busy all the time his wife with.

she was. fairly well known designer stage designer what he saw at that time and 132. in stalin's moscow however strange it might sound now he saw lots of opportunity there. were tears. in the big guns the. more eyes he has girl of the. old souls. that only got the. dog but it the middle and the medication owns the mall so she. must fit in the studio going yeltsin's cooking us to our good. eskin to just said.

i was a little dog let me know what you will probably i sure will mr shelby i mean you mustn't be doctor nobody ever spoke to middling at. good odor. at the. los angeles. nestle ross the daughter of servia attacked a robot ross was born and raised in russia and now lives with her son james near moscow in a big country house. james was a talented athlete as a boy. in the late 1980 s. he played for the reserve team of one of the country's leading football clubs spacek moscow could anybody come. to little.

me. so this point. so did racism exist in the sort of youth union. with the mildest of my own what are you on your body in the ib at this level promotes reporter would team up ask them what happened after the iron curtain fell when the descendants of those african americans could return to america their ancestral homeland. to deal with and why now 100 years later is russia again attracting african-americans for skin. tone of the kind of war the proud. ethical idea. l. look forward to talking to. that technology should work for people. must

obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders that conflict with the 1st law show your identification for should be very careful about artificial intelligence and the point is to trace trast. 3 areas with artificial intelligence will something different. for the obama's protect its own existence is. historically speaking the cold war was a great ideological confrontation western liberalism versus soviet communism according to joe biden the great geo political struggle of our time is democracy versus autocracy for biden we are in another great ideological struggle but there

is a difference the west particularly the united states is the only ideological actor . the wall street frauds going all the way back to the twenty's they're not different they're repackaged rebranded and sold again it's the same wine it is a bottle so the smack frog is just a variation on the dot com frog which is a variation of the mortgage sub prime fraud if you will fraud the g.d.p. would be it would be negative 20 percent. that's just the special is so cool so yes that ice is mum says. the tiniest most felt. in modern russia or it would be hard to find anyone who hasn't heard of hunger she's worked on television since the late 1990 s. boosting several popular talk shows including russia's 1st t.v.

show to discuss sex. the british and despite that question especially because the christian agnostic osho did a very very good or show i have he is 6. the question. i mean yeah just especially i should. include some of those to note that a deal less must be hooliganism or there's nothing below that at the movie. but does that mean you know which the that nico when you were going in there was a. 1000000 times his father george times moved to pursuit of you to union in the 1930 s. along with many other african-americans and settled in the big sort of youth republic where he helps develop cattle breeding on collective farms that swear in millions spent childhood some of us losing their. nest in the really good.

news she knew that i was. the most the deal is loyal to them my 50 years of must prove. he said stuart the. that. was big here was the good sound then the city is here illusion i get it that i don't sneer that ice is known by medicare of things it is by me to get the bogus alleged in that i see isn't the total bill chest of the source of the system i will say this is it the bill with. the new disco will give it a golden you my your mama can trust me. when you will you probably but i wish i knew i made a consummate my dear with you did that when you published when you print a little but it's. very new. there was racism throughout europe. where they work or london or paris or if you read and

there. were doubts now we're going to experience your. daily life for an african-american in the thirty's was. you know frustrating there would be parts of town that you would not be able to go through or you would only be. allowed to go to certain stores there were accommodations were black there would be separate correlates for example of why it would be separate water fountains. and they were usually of the lower quality i've thought about this many times i don't even i don't know why more african americans didn't. try to go. there his other places maybe it doesn't occur to them. to comb their will to cease to be sniffling meeting to push their nationalists. in the wind in europe that has been this team i was because i still would duck stop with the cup the polio in them i was freezing yet i'm slow about that sally is

a toy it still to be done deal it's got to be natural it started. when the soviet union collapsed the descendants of those african americans had the chance to travel and to see their ancestral homeland for the 1st time george tines his grandson you'll be times was one of the few from whence to be lynched in the early 1990 s. my approach to both the coil would be a terrific strain but it's your 1st sos call so you should look down cooked of still some was a boy does not have been his will on the. air we did see in the dust bowl. in the east more than that i'm not sure but you could be forgiven that says consumers are born to. college determine the course of the boy in your eyes or the you know we do a story nobody short enough to do the is that the mushroom you know we do it the most for short of time what your stocks customers who gave it to adore and keep going to work when i was told to do it but chose to put the work was what they

studied there so that they would be with me while you were going to take that little dust up with that they would seem to doubt although what are all the more you know with them yes that is it's yet i'm just also required to preach in the new porno soaps not store at them but doc watson. as a will to deal with it sure i deal with an issue as with the interior with the tomato and supporter of kirk story shows i should think you know what i've seen the show so stood me gotta go out at. you can either stay you of course but i mean a q when you sent the curtis machine lean more towards it is their business so perfect it sees them. in tediously of us we're going to be able to just close them there said dick you know to. me what i see as sober. unlike you don't you tines his own to be a 1000000 times moved to the usa and became an american citizen. she's lived there for the last 10 years. was she will do that loses is

a good idea. what should you do admit a sears and use the you know what i see often i mean the consequence to you would simply be my. thought of what you can discuss bus leave new board the old yes we should leave usual and use the d.v.d. in your store with that you see it would be nice to. have. a familiar conflict at the other it does there's a. real. b. in the sim you can use the windows themes or there's a no will do would at the dock teachers can you was was there. those doubles the value maze disputes you know because i were in their system so use it to show sport not. such a waste of my school's commenced which will probably. be as a korn show it would be or she could even out of milk resist rubberstamp as i know

for her to school. with the. company of qatar agave they said in the story of this president about this article. from the city of new business stuff that's neither of them or both of them are and have never really got into. motion and the thing is to compress through emotion the cut of the period and you gore. only know most christians he's premier and it's a from seeing that it is not on that show are now going to do us must be we'll horseless way mom we said no to the stuff of the person or purpose of school to force as much as you would chose not to show you the source you. why did i make up my mind to move to russia i wanted to leave a country where i was spayed. nation racism.

have we are all the racial problems from like you know not at all if you look at the recent events. it's all too frustratingly similar to. decades past. a situation i remember it was yesterday i x. for help from the police where i was like an emergency and then i became the victim i had 3 police officers. grabbed me and just throw me down on the ground. and i had a bruise on my hand crews on my arms. i thought they were going to kill me. that they were going to shoot me and it was by because peace in the series was the worst experience of my life that i do not want to ever ever live again.

because i grew up in a normal or orthodox family you know we're not gangsters. you know no one has a we don't have any hoodies at the police was there to help me why aren't they helping me. and it's history that's repeated over and over and over again and it hasn't been fixed my great grandfather george time staring. you know in the great depression so rights movement it's the same thing just a different version. of what. i've been living in moscow for one year exactly i teach english i'm a teacher. i feel free and living in russia. because in a rush the matter what time it is i can walk outside and i'm say.

we're standing outside the metro area and then with the police officers too close ups is walking towards us and my heart's beating fast like. why because no living in america. you're traumatized and i was like talk i'm scared and then my friend just moved here from america and she's russian he's like really just 5 minutes later that same police opera comes back with the biggest bouquet of flowers a stranger and tells me welcome to russia you belong here. i do belong here it's a piece of me and the more i had the more i'm here the more it i see that i'm not going anywhere and the russians that i meet here 1st they're like ok you're foreigner that i have when i speak russian and then wait we wait on the national at

least. no. more. of the scene will just a single speech at the close of the deal with this way you. know. would you go into the water with the seal of. the a little bit below. the cup with them which is a better deal less money which is pretty vicious to get the ball of things on the field always to get jelly in your. local ideally to do the skills and much of. what you buy. which is. why you. use it. new york and the other sin is national useless it just published because

the. i knew watching got it out for. the mom operationalize raising me as leisure will sit by in the more talk about my yeah. with this it's the. second skin steiner's than. just leave it to him. with us. rose in the new bin it's a new zealand on the bridge at the noon eastern us promise and discuss. in the. end to see. mused it's not. so i will do. this a believe me did it says no no no don't. think it's.

so it's crystal clear. same wrong all just don't all. get to shape out just a. ticket and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground.

as an individual committed a crime so nice to international community crime trying to. retrieve years later when not individuals for leave are you still auditioning the person who committed the crime or is the person being punished for something that they were a completely different person at the time one doesn't expire one is a person's actions no longer what we need to judge them for an everyday basis. problem drugs don't always come from unscrupulous dealers but from pharmacies to in every state in the united states we see me very sharp increase in the number of people seeking treatment for addiction to prescription opioids oids invented america under the banner of medicine persisted with the pain but instead of trying to wean him off though she just goes after dose after dose after dose and really became his drug dealer so who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers all the

governments. breaking news on. our injured be u.s. capitol building. shooting suspect is in custody in the area as. we go to a u.s. correspondent in moments for the latest. coming up the program this hour and germany say it's ready to go it alone with vaccine procurement if he fails the fake said sluggish program those concerns were shared by the world health organization's executive director for europe in an exclusive interview with r.t. .
