babies were torn from their mothers and given away and fullest adoption i don't know the bottom line it was the other. that i don't grow but there's a feeling that to this day mothers still search for grown children while looking hope for their parents. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person of. the day years thinks. we. ask.

greetings and salutation. guilty guilty guilty guilty guilty guilty guilty by now most of us have heard that most historic of verdicts which was brought down this week and former minneapolis police officer derek shaw yes mr shaaban is now without a shadow of a doubt guilty of murder in george was notorious blue wall of silence could not protect him in fact it crumbled before his very eyes and no matter how much his defense tried to put the victim actions on trial 12 individual jurors saw through the farce and racism of it all and finally brought some much needed accountability to the murder of mr floyd and while the minneapolis community and many others around the country and even the world breathed a sigh of relief and gave a cheer for justice well that didn't seem to stop our wonderful politicians and

civic leaders from excitedly jumping on the history of the moment and in the process. trip and fall over their own idiocy narcissism and yes racism like our good friends in the police officer of speculation of minneapolis who after thanking the jury instead and sending remorse to the community this cited to go on to declare that quote we need the political pandering to stop and the race baiting of elected officials to stop in addition we need to stop the divisive comments and we all need to do better to create a minneapolis we all love. what else needs to stop is you know police killing black folks in minneapolis not be a good thing stop to there but it wasn't just police union representatives who were practicing foot and mouth disease on tuesday and germany after was mayor and a guy who probably owns

a huge j crew credit cards jacob frey who in the aftermath of the murder tweeted george why you came to minneapolis to better his life but ultimately his life will have bettered our city. yes the george floyd died for all of us the wasn't just confined to local politics as united states house leader nancy pelosi told a crowd of people quote thank you george floyd for sacrificing your life for justice. you know i'm sorry george floyd didn't murder him self so that a cop could finally be held accountable he was an innocent man going about his regular life trying to buy a piece of candy when a group of cops led by derek shove and killed him over a bad $20.00 bill. think about that well and start watching the whole. list on

a cd you streets. are so let's see see rises joyce state city police traced this crazy city this sleaze systemic deception is complete show which is some real. world where everybody is watching the hawks. and i'm just across. it astounds me the amount of car cassidy but we are seeing displayed in the wake of all of these people as they go well you know george would die for the city of many hours jacob freier nancy pelosi you know george boy died for justice what are they getting so horribly wrong about this well i think that part of what they're getting wrong is that they are actually listening to the civil rights in the advocacy community because there are also people who are they are also folks who are saying that this is basically you know justice served and civil rights groups advocacy groups bokes have been fighting for police reforms on the ground aren't calling this that at all we're

calling it accountability justice we have get to see accountability that is what we got out of this out of this show the verdict but i think that one of the other things is they're trying to make this a lay down your life situation to change you know race relations to change and bring about reforms and acting as though that is what george boy was out to do he was not this is a man who literally walked into a couple. to buy a small item and he ended up losing his life literally across the street from that from that store this was not someone who was out you know waving a protest banner carrying signs had a long legacy of civil rights movement legislative work and things like that he was not laying down his life or anything his life was snuffed out you know we have to be real that this was a murder and i think that for many black people who were listening and or who watched nancy pelosi specifically get that those comments yesterday because she said them on the heels of the congressional black caucus speaking out about this it

was a real slap in the face it definitely was and i'm just so people understand the gravity of what this decision was the most comprehensive databases on police violence is maintained by getting philip stinson the criminologists of bowling green state university and also former police officer his researchers found the average roughly about a 1000 people were killed by u.s. police mostly by shooting each and every year about a 1000. in his work less than 2 per cent of those 1000 deaths a year result in charges actually being filed against police officers in fact according to his research since 2005. on duty shootings have resulted in $100.00 only $140.00 cases of police being arrested on charges of murder or manslaughter of those $97.00 cases that actually went through it to a full trial only said the since 2005 have resulted in murder convictions more than half were dismissed or resulted in acquittals these are

astounding the tickets and bring all the more reason why this why what we saw yes what we saw happen on tuesday was so important exactly that was a watershed moment in many ways because in the majority of cases like this 99 percent of the 99 percent of these officers never going to be charged anyway but they want to get past that charging stage how many are actually going to go through the court system to go through this entire process and receive any penalty we see that time and time again they either get off completely because it's declared a mistrial or something like that or they you know they had they were acquitted or they get the lowest level charge completely so they may murder somebody am based serve 3 years or less and then in those cases again it's only a handful of people that have actually ever seen these sentences anyway it's powerful powerful decision by the jury that's going to hopefully you know legs so there's a good this is this is the 1st step in a marathon up a mountain there's an example of it still coming in terms of change it but it's a 1st it's a good powerful. black americans have endured literacy tests whole

texas domestic terrorism with the k.k.k. beating burning crosses in their yards bombing their homes and churches and committing murder all in an effort to keep black people from voting. it was the jim crow way the legacy of an era that not only didn't value black lives but didn't count black people as american or worthy of a stake in our democratic system sadly that time didn't in the sixty's the 15th amendment the civil rights act in generations of advocates have yet to in the stronghold jim crow has on our democracy upheld as exceptional across the globe. no right here in america while we advance democratic the ideals abroad republican leaders are destroying them at home. following a record breaking voter turnout in the presidential election of 2020 georgia became a battleground state for jim crow 2.0 where republicans are using every weapon at their disposal to shatter minority voting rights the passing of senate bill 202

made georgia ground 0 for civil rights activism and litigation as its the most far reaching voter suppression legislation of our time. georgia progressive leaders and voting rights advocates have called on businesses and corporations to do more to fight the legislation corporations like facebook google coca-cola delta j.p. morgan and many more have called out georgia's border restrictions but not everyone is on board in fact georgia they've leaders recently called for a nationwide boycott of home depot the construction goods giant is based in georgia and is noticeably been silent on the georgia voter restriction law a coalition of executives from georgia's largest companies and fake leaders from across the state called for a boycott of home depot on tuesday this comes on the heels of a committee hearing in the nation's capital where newly elected georgia senator raphael warnock fair fight bounder stacy abrams and p. president sherrilyn i feel testified against georgia's progressive voter legislation civil rights attorney robert shapiro joins us now.

robert s.b. $20.00 to the voter suppression law that has been making headlines since its passage is just that it's a law what tools are at the disposal of advocates now that the voter suppression and jim crow is the law of the land in georgia and what do you think boycotts will accomplish. well we have to understand that fundamentally speaking georgia. started in 1907 when we passed the 1st voter id bill it was not put into use until the 2002 election forward to the 2002 election very good night. been a republican elected for 130 years in georgia since that 2002 election every single republican every single governor of georgia has been a republican so let me say that these laws are not about voter suppression the math is not on their side so what can be done going forward is similar to what we saw in north carolina when they refuse when they passed

a transgender bathroom bill for years ago and in other states someone what happened in arizona when they refused to pass the king holiday companies and individuals have to divest from the state to make sure they understand the importance of supporting the right to vote and so a lot of performed of justice in 2020 let's all banners and t. shirts will paint sidewalks and streets to say you support black laws but right now is where the rubber hits the road and we need real concentrated legislative action and we need the business community to come together to stop these things from happening in georgia because what happens is it will start in georgia and then it will spread texas is already taking up the legislation $43.00 states have a net lead slate or hope post for legislation that would restrict the right to vote so what we have to do is ensure that we are supporting the rights of the democratic process and supporting the right to vote for every american i want to ask you look at a growing number of c.e.o.'s and corporations we've heard speak out on voting rights most recently linked in co-founder reid hoffman joined the chorus urging business

leaders to back up verbal support with the action i want to ask you know is this the course of action that could change the course for the republican party there see what reid said about that you know protecting voting rights and making voting more accessible as well pro-business and more importantly and pro-american but are these corporations and the pressure and their c.e.o.'s going to actually change the course of action or is this going to just kind of all be noise in the storm. it absolutely can change the course of it and think by what was on south africa during apartheid it wasn't political movements it wasn't the marches it was a mandela going to jail the ended apartheid it was corp's divesting from from south africa the resulted in the end of apartheid so when we talk about the power of corporate leadership on the planet earth in the last 2 years more films have been filmed in the state of georgia than any other single location on the planet earth much of the state's income and comes from the fortune $500.00 companies moved there because the low taxes low look regulation lack of union participation so because of

that they hold the power to hold the state accountable i don't think any major corporation want to be known as the corporation that supports a jim crow jim crow laws and a jim crow state and when you hear these arguments well this should not be compared to jim crow during jim crow there were several race neutral at all nations for the legislative it seems that they made everything from from claiming that literacy tests were needed to ensure you had a educated voter voting groups poll tests and or need to short of property owners had a voice land only restrictions were needed because people who own land had a bigger vote to ensure they had a bigger voice in the community but what they really were intentionally created to prevent african-americans and other marginalized groups from voting there is that same thing that goes on with the voting restrictions where they are based upon the lie that donald trump told which is that they need that there was massive fraud and that they need to find him 12000 votes if the if these laws are able to effect one out of every 200 votes in the state of georgia that will come out to about

$25000.00 votes so it's not about bull connor standing outside the dogs and holds as you just need to skim off one out of every $200.00 votes in can change the presidency you can change the balance of power in the senate from 48 from 5050 to 4052 you can change the composition of the federal judiciary by democrats not having majority you change the every single thing in american politics just by skimming all one out of every 2. and robert how does the potential passage of the john lewis voting rights advancement act affect places like georgia can the federal government should they be doing more to advance voter protections and aren't they already in a race against the clock with the midterms just around the corner they absolutely are let's remember the reason they were in this current posture is because of the shelby versus holder decision 2014 which is all but stripping got at the voting rights that in 1065 these voting changes taking place in georgia and in the other party jurisdictions would have been subject to would come of this was the terms of pre-clearance. pre-clearance such as of the voting rights the john lewis voting

rights bill well would to reinstate those federal protections approved the old secret states from being able to pass new voter restrictions we're not going to say thank you so much for coming on and educate our audience always a pleasure sir. thank you. all right everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the office of the man through the brand new portable t.v. app which is available on all platforms you got no choice. definitely pick it up all right coming up there is a new twist in the world of vaccine distribution and involves a legging vaccine car. that's going to be interesting dr bob arnot joins us next to discuss so stay tuned to watch in the hot.

tub and planning another one time spinnaker on the way to both the food. bank itself moved to see it on the plaza this way got set up so hard not to think i'm going to decide to move them with a plan that i want and i know just how much and i think. this is the only thing that we do is music because everybody fights aimed his way. through and you can defeat all kind of this most recent video that you have given at the moment on the. what i think is this is the fund that is a compliment.

i think that will be an interesting new chapter in all of this is that after all the jobs have been shipped to china the majority of american landlords will be chinese and so most people will have lost their jobs from china they'll be addicted to feds and all chip in probably from china to rent if they can afford a house to someone in china. psychiatric drugs are essential for millions of patients. they want that pill that they hope will take care of their problem thoroughly and rapidly in the short term they really work the problem is in the long term they're mostly disastrous suddenly stopping a drug can cause withdrawal symptoms more serious than the condition it was meant to treat instead of the beneficial effects of these different medicines ending up

to something wonderful very often or in full effects get up to something terrible until solve all ills are always trying to mitigate life itself i just think i was and i was just scared i was a scared little girl i was 24 and like. the didn't have to be so complicated. we've turned a corner in managing the club at 19 threat across america but by the ministry she continues to be diligent in making sure that the vaccine is available without limitation this week in 1000 vaccination appointments became open to every american over the age of 16 regardless of occupational preexisting condition status. but the progress america's made on the coup with exene front hasn't come easily nor has the

road to a community there without its bumps one of the hottest commodities is the vaccine court the paper card given when someone gets vaccinated that card features personal identifiers like your name and birth date as well as the date the covert shot was administered which vaccine brand was given in the site it was received from these cards like the willy wonka golden ticket for things like employers trying to track vaccination of their workforce international travel seekers and the like but not every vaccine card is legit state attorney generals are waving the red flag as fake vaccination cards are popping up all over the place on e bay customers are buying c.d.c. vaccination cards worked in dollars and 99 cents a chicago or pharmacist was behind that listing but he's far from the only one who have vaccine card scams are taking place across the internet and regulators are working on a crackdown the other wrinkle is posted 19 variants even for those vaccinated the

question of whether or not there vaccines provide the protection necessary to fight emerging variance is still murky the bight administration for its part is investing $1700000000.00 in an effort to detect monitor and mitigate the problem. and if there weren't enough problems already the johnson and johnson vaccine pause has only increased vaccine has it had seen a conspiracy theories infectious disease expert dr bob arnot is here to break it all down welcome doctor. great reporting mission thank you dr bob that scene card fraud is growing it was initially planned by the c.d.c. not to use cards for that very reason they wanted a digital tracking system but because vaccinations were passed tracked they didn't have the time to create the system they envisioned do you think the current broadway force different measures and ensuring people are actually backs unaided and what risk are pows when make vaccine cards are used to. associate risk imagine someone you know movie theater on an airplane with a fake vaccine card who might be infected i think the chinese in turn the best over

the last year you know you you have a actual vaccine. on your phone and secure our code and that goes back to a central database the ministry of health that doesn't just have your vaccine it's your p.c.r. so if you've got a test and also see your sorabjee because the other thing is say you've had the vaccine how will the work on you if you the sorabjee so in china you know if you go to a movie theater department building an airplane you travel the country you have those and i think it's going to take that to grieve technology because as you've reported the needs are everywhere so simple piece of paper there are all kinds of blueprints for and you can make them on your own by somebody and so vaccine fraud is going to be huge and dangerous until we have apps that are backed by simple there's no doubt you know i want to i want to also ask you about the latest with the by the administration they're investing 1700000000 to fight covert 19 variants now we know

that the u.k. and africa very were tracked heavily over the past few months what is the predominant strain in america now and what level of protection do the currently available vaccines provide. for those variants and will americans probably need another vaccine before the year is and if even more variance begin to emerge in europe. such great questions you know the b. 17 the u.k. variant has been pretty dominant here in our state of vermont we've now seen a 1st case of p one which is a brazilian a very coarse a south african variant that the 135 want to the one that people sort of fear the most and this virus and he's are any viruses are called the king of errors ever replicating mechanism and when they replicate there's no way to check the errors every 2 weeks to make an error most are nonsense but unfortunately some of them are and those are the ones now in the spike protein of course that's what attaches to

your body in the spike protein is also when you meet the antibodies to with your vaccine so pfizer mcgann are already on the case they already have these very blue series and will be tested out i suspect late summer early fall have those i advised our local school board here to really push for those 2 specifically and we're down in the fives because they're so far ahead of the curve in terms of testing out these very it's so i feel good that in the fall there will be a booster and that bush will be effective he had a great question about you know is there is there breakthrough yes there is breakthrough so far to think out of 75000000 vaccines or less than 6000 breakthrough cases in one study other studies a little bit more perplexing because you don't know how many people actually exposed to a virus will be asking well and that relation you know how many were exposed so you know we don't know what that breakthrough rate is we do know this is that in israel i think it was a time of the south african strain in 2.5 times you know lower end of

a lot of levels for the u.k. strength so there definitely lower levels of the antibodies however still enough that you know people. pretty well with the brain so far but a rising specter here could talk with one of the local state's whistle susceptibility or just pessimistic or assume of israel the tremendous decline in desson hospitalizations like what i'm seeing here but still 20 percent to 2 percent of americans are kids in adolescence that i can have a back seat until fall or winter you have 20 percent of all americans you haven't got the vaccine even jellicoe some of the groups that are there vaccines are not getting the vaccine so it doesn't look like we're going to hit that magic her community number which tony has said is between 70 and 85 percent so i think there's still trouble ahead here. you can ask all the pundit for my next question coming back thing has

a chance the conspiracy theory is spreading appalls information and partisanship are threatening vaccine progress in the us many women believe that the bad thing might make them infertile roomers a bad thing is causing auto immune disorders are plying republicans across the south and in other areas aren't willing to get the vaccine taking some type of republican smog a stance how can we overcome these hurdles what can we expect back seeing progress to do real or plateau. i think is going to plateau i don't think we can overcome a lot of them i certainly think the sounds be very difficult you know many of the left over trump voters now have been left for the sort of it i stand so i think it's very tough i think it means we're not going to be able to that level it's quite interesting i have a patient who's 31 and she refused to get the vaccine was worried about fertility would so interesting is we had a local. chiropractor who are a letter in the paper with the usual anti baxter's response and i was going to write it you know sort of response to it and the whole of

a sudden johnson and johnson comes out of the blue these terrible blood clots they call them rare but let me just one case of this is terrifying and so you know they're not they're not completely wrong there is some cause for concern though. i really think these m. r.n.a. virus you know these non-writer ones that is the m r n e my but pfizer has to check and we really have not seen any of these clearly problems and i i swear by them i've certainly stepped up to the plate for myself and my family so. trying to lead your last question very quickly got about a minute left in the show but i want to ask you do you know do you see is this kind of like hasn't see to get vaccination is this is something that's kind of normal to the human condition over the years from all the other big pandemics and things like that that we've seen throughout history is that kind of has been seed to push back or is that unique to the 21st century. i mean i think it's unique to the to the last administration. backs or states i mean i grew over the polio

vaccine when it came along everybody wanted to get that although you know it's quite interesting because you know right now the number the car theory probably eminently remember either but there was a follow on that we had the birchers and you had these various right wing groups they really did push we couldn't even get fluoride in our water is kids growing up because there's all the conspiracy about it so i think it is new i think it's new it's a whole or from the last the last regime here and i think it's very very troublesome and dangerous here we have victory in our hands and we're basically you know pulling defeat out of the jaws of victory here so it's it's hard to watch that is to thank you as always dr for coming on and educating our audience was always a pleasure as a young to. see any. art of what event is our show for you today remember in this world we are definitely not told that we are love them enough so i tell you all i love you i am
