18 injured in. southern rushes crimea province already declare the state of the city ah lie from the rushing capital. this is alrighty! thanks for choosing us for your news update. let's get straight to it. america is celebrating. it's new june 18th holiday, marking the end of slavery in 18. 65. but the supreme court has also just rule that force, child labor in africa, is not something us. food giants are culpable for elia. katrinka takes up the story for us. the question is, slavery still something that troubles america today? well, here comes the answer from the president. remember, the moral stain,

the terrible toll. this slavery took on the country and continues to take. so what's there to be done about that? as an athlete, you can take the knee and the name of black lives matter. as an activist, you can campaign for the reparations, for the ancestors of those who suffered or were killed as president. you can declare, june the 19th or june kings as federal holiday. that's exactly what the president did earlier this week. as the supreme court, you know, what else happened at the same time? the u. s. supreme court ruled american food giants best play usa and car gill can't be food for child slavery. this ruling has disturbing implications for future victims of human rights abuses, seeking justice against businesses in u. s. cords. this ruling also sets a dangerous precedence, giving corporations impunity for profiting from human rights abuses. it's an old and disturbing story that we've already reported on

a group of african men demanded compensation from us corporations that get their cocoa in africa. they claimed they've been trafficked from one country to another as children, and forced to work as slaves and horrendous conditions on coca farms. the activists are sounding the alarm over the ivory coast effect to think of the country exports more cocoa than anyone else on the planet now providing about 2 thirds of the world's supply, which makes it very likely that the regular chocolate bar you eat taste of illegal child labor, but what if these accounts are fake? well, only recently the u. s. department of labor funded a report which found that the cocoa industry in west africa was exploiting $1600000.00 charged laborers. i. e slaves without going into too many legalistic details. the nation's highest court pulled the brakes on the case pretty much because companies outside the us bear the responsibility for mass abuse. you

might want to ask why not at least look into the case? well, that's how things are. that's how the law works. the big businesses will probably keep repeating things like or i'm 99 percent. sure they will. child labor isn't acceptable. that is why we are working so hard to prevent it. cargoes work to keep child labor out of the cocoa supply chain isn't wavering. we do not tolerate the use of child labor in our operations or supply chains and we're working every day to prevent it expects even more emotional words from them, from the athletes, the activists and the president on june 13th. but those who have been following this particular case won't stand the hypocrisy. we are celebrating the end of slavery, but american companies still profit in off of slave labor. so it's up to you to celebrate or to reflect on the toll that joe biden mentioned. it needs to be

illegal for american corporations to do business with anyone who uses child labor because they always say, well, they didn't work for us. it was in our farm. you can't blame us. this has to be tackled legislatively, other corporations to do great harm to people. they will, especially in the past year, they'll say black lives matter or someone will take a need or they claim that they have an anti racist workplace when they don't. and this is one of many ways in which the u. s. is hypocritical on the issue of human rights by allowing corporations have carte blanche to practice all kinds of terrible things all over the world. but money talks and the big corporations get the ear of politicians, so they're never held to account the way they should be. the british

government ministers have described a decline and rape conviction rates as shameful. after a review saw that thousands of victims been denied. justice officials have apologized, but activists say that's not enough. and it's unusual for government to express this kind of shame and admit and recognize the deep failings in the criminal justice system. but no, i don't think an apology alone is enough to heal the hurt of the victims and survivors who have been so terribly let down. and i think that, you know, the real proof of the pudding will be in the eating, you know, the real difference to victims and survivors will come if and when the proper measures are taken to improve the situation for the future. the long awaited review reveal more than half of rape victims drop. there are cases and only one and a half percent of them see their suspected attacker charged the prob,

blamed intrusive police questioning. on an excessively long court process. the governments now introduce the score card system to assess the speed with which the cases get to court and whether victims are satisfied with the outcome. the 1st results will be published in december, or at least by the date. the new plans have been criticized by many, however, who say it may simply lead to quotas being filled on potentially innocent meals. defendants being prosecuted, katie russell, again say short term measures are not going to solve the issue. other victims and survivors are likely to feel quite angry actually as if an apology is too little too late. because for them, of course, they haven't got criminal justice. they can't potentially been re traumatized by the system. we know we talking about a long term systemic structural issue, a wholesale issue so, so small individual measures are going to,

on their own be able to solve the situation. nobody doubts that very, very many lives have been seriously impacted, negatively, impacted by sexual violence and abuse. in recent years and, and the apology in this recognition and this review comes after very many years of campaigning. the russian region of crimea has declared a state of emergency amid severe flooding which has left at least one person dead, and 18 others injured. almost 2000 people have been evacuated from their homes as well. are tease acreage, adama reports not from crimea. despite all efforts to this city of y'all say he's taking baby steps towards containing the consequences of the flood. there's only so much that can be done. but having said that, the progress is still evidence. yes, this is supposed to be

a street. yes. houses up the street. people can't live in them any more, but literally hours ago, or rather a couple of days ago. cause we're floating here as if they were both, but the situation here is critical. the governor of the crime in peninsula has been in this city throughout the whole day. this is how he has described the situation here. and the efforts that the government is taking to contain the consequences of the flood traffic of the situation is disastrous. in many homes, those that are on the low lands have been flooded by water from almost the entire city of touch. and unfortunately, the water is still up to the waist. for now, our goal is to help everyone so that no one is left to faces. crisis alone. the situation is very serious, both emergency ministry workers and the army right now helping out taking part in relief efforts. but the situation is made even worse by the fact that this city and

this region, it has lately suffered from a shortage of clean water of drink. about possible water, and this is how the ukrainian side coleman said. this is what they had to say one. this city was overcome by a downfall night. sure. you know that the crime in peninsula has been asking for water for a very long time. and there's so much water there today that they don't even know what to do with it. and yesterday, encouraging today in yalta. unfortunately, this happened there. the lord god gave them too much water in one goal. yeah, some bitter sac isn't here at the expense of the people that tragedy him. they by the way, have been telling me that they don't remember anything of this scale not even close by the way, compared to what is happening right now. and the city is also bracing for more just in case more rain is to come to another story we want to bring you to a indigenous canadians have been given the right to use their traditional names on

official documents. it's part of a government effort to atone for decades of forced assimilation. we spoke to indigenous human rights activists, lauraly williams, who told us that in no way mix up for the atrocities the state has committed. i've been trying to get my own inventions name, but yeah, it hasn't happened yet. i was supposed to get when my mom passed away. but you know, in that moment it was just too hard for me. i had to leave my moms as or when the kids were taken to residential school. they actually were numbered. they, they had to go by numbers just why a small small staff that the government taking the government. oh, oh, much, you know, it was the government who made the decision to take the kids to take her languages to take our culture, to take our name, to try to kill our candidates genocide against her people. with the discovery of

the 215 children class, they can't hide the truth any more. so i guess they're trying to make up for what they did. but this is a small, small step. you know, a lot of her languages are actually dying. last monday, the canadian government and 9 star indigenous names can be used in their original spelling for identity and immigration documents. that's 6 years after a report by the truth and reconciliation commission condemned so name, cultural genocide, that schools will. the move also comes after the grim discovery of hundreds of on mark raves at the sight of a former residential school. of those institutions were a part of a country wide network aimed at assimilating 1st nations children by removing them from their communities. 2 8 on. 8 8

the. 8 8 day you will see it was good. it wasn't you today. it was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to suffer anything humiliation. he learned to cry anymore . get harder. and yet you learn to shut down. oh, the, i couldn't talk a word of english. i talked cree and i was abused for that hit and made to try to talk english. i lost my language. they threatened us with a strapping. you spoke it. within a year, i lost all of it. so i. 8 used to him i tried to trying a night. 2 the principal to take him to the hospital. he didn't, after about 2 weeks,

my brother was in so much pain. he was going out of his mind. i pleaded with the principal for days to take him to the doctor. ah, they started to sexually take advantage of me and abuse me. not one. not too many, many people for very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years. laura lee williams again said little as changed with indigenous people still exposed to what she said is systemic racism in canada. this one school has definitely caught a lot of attention around the world. there's so many vision leaders that pass, woke up about this. i find when we, we speak up about their we have to repeat herself over and over and over again. and it gets tiring. it's hard, work grateful that these children are being found. we always knew that they were

there and it's not just those children. so this is lawana can start to seek grades . there's so much systemic racism against ash del to be and this is exactly why our women and girls are indigenous women and girls are going cmc murdered at a high rate. you know, as an in business woman, we're still at the bottom here in canada, and these are our own lands. so the systemic racism has to stop. illegal raven fronts ended in horror on friday night to revelers reportedly held. their hands partially blew off when the picked up police stung grenades as officers tripped in on the curfew defying party. the. 7 7

the event took place in the field in northwest france, with some 1500 people in attendance, at least fired tear gas while party goers through missiles and petrol bombs. several officer, sustained injuries authority say an investigation is underway into what happened will despite a 7 hour long operation to disperse the crowd, there. busy were still reports of police flashes on sunday morning with a die hard group of attendees, apparently, still partying in the afternoon. so at this hour, all our teams are still a u. s. senate prob concludes that the f b i had advanced warning up the capitol hill, riots back in january, but failed to that story. and more few of the brick ah, ah,

ah ah ah, i use join me every thursday on the alex salmon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business, i'm sure business. i'll see you then. in

the news, ah. 18 minutes into the program. welcome back. a major fire has been put out in central law school. it's raged for several hours at a pyrotechnics warehouse and several exclusions were heard. police 4 people were injured in the blaze which is believed to have been caused by an electrical short circuit. saskia taylor was near the scene for his earlier was a huge plume of smoke, seemingly emanating from the center of moscow. the just a couple of 100 meters away from loosen key station,

which one of the biggest port stadium in the capitol around 81000 seats. that was a conflicting report as to what was actually happening. once all said. c that it was a warehouse that caught fire from a firewall shop nearby, but then it turns out that it was indeed a pi were tech next warehouse with apparently 15 tons of inflammable. but then that 5 jumped on to the neighboring buildings to we also didn't really understand how serious, serious it was until the emergency status that they lifted the danger rating from 2 to 3, which is actually the maximum. what i can tell you is from the time that i've been here, i can see that all the way down. you can see all the way down. got fly runjun. we've got police cars, the stretch, also not direction towards the bridge, but there are also a number of ambulances to the all confirmed reports from the mayor's office. i believe saying that 4 people about 3 firemen and one employee of the warehouse have been injured. they, of course,

immediately the medical personnel responded to that the site has apparently been contained. we are looking at around 500 square meters. at least 3 helicopters have been saw putting over had that come. you can see that that bringing water to try and dump and the flames, and they don't look like a lot, but i'll tell you i was talking about they make ahead of the noise, but they also carry around 5 tons of water. so they have been sought calling for a couple of hours and doing everything that they can to bring those up flames down . what i'll also say is that the smoke is actually behind these trees to my left. you can't see it, they've done considerable, make considerable progress since i've been here. but when i 1st arrived at the scene, it was honestly blowing every all the way down to the street level. and it was such a strong smell. i was standing that was basically and gulped in it almost felt a bit like i was in the middle of a san so i could feel it in my hat and in my clothes, this mobiles also quite specific. it wasn't like the smell of

a bomb thought you could tell that there was also the smell that you got from spot clothes. you could tell, but that was something from the fireworks. so that's the way it's looking at the moment. still a lot of activity out the site more and more information coming out, but i can tell you that they pushed everyone back, but there was a crowd behind the camera that still gathering still taking photos. people stopping, trying to get home at the moment. everything is still shut off, the emergency service is watching the fire and all that you're watching at toil asleep so that people are just stepping back and letting people do that. walk right now. okay, let's turn attention stateside where us police along with the f b, i apparently had prior warning of the capital riots in january, but failed to take preemptive action. that's the dummy conclusion of a senate inquiry scale up open takes us through has been 6 months, spent a mob storm the u. s. capital on january 6th. and while the investigation is ongoing, some politicians say they want answers and they have some interesting ways of

saying it. and i certainly hope that our premier law enforcement organization is not actually working to violate federal law. so why bring the f b i into this? well, there's a theory floating around that the f, b, i infiltrated the protesters and basically arranged the whole thing and then shifted the blame on to donald trump and his supporters. is there any possible truth in this? so let's dig deeper. it's certainly worth finding out why this has become a popular explanation of events. earlier this week, the u. s. senate just published a big report on the riots. here is some of what they found. need of the f b. i know the u. s. department of homeland security deemed online posts calling for violence of the capital is credible in testimony before the committee's representatives from both agencies noted that much of the rhetoric online prior to january. the 6th with 1st amendments, protected speech of limited credibility and acknowledge areas for improvement. in handling and dissemination of threats, information from social media and online message boards to enhance law enforcement

and intelligence agencies abilities to counter the threats. now we find out they did indeed have lots of information. they just didn't think it was relevant. the report goes on the united states, capital police, again, gathering information about the events plan for jenny, the 6 in mid december 2020, through open source collection tips from the public and other sources. the u. s. c . p. intelligence and in agency coordination division. knew about social media posts calling for violence of the capital and journey of the 6, including a plot to breach the capital, the online sharing of maps of the capital complex, this tunnel systems, and other specific threats of violence. yet the i, c, d, did not convey the full scope of known information to us. c, p, leadership rank and file offices or law enforcement partners. so the secret service and police intelligence were aware of a possible but did not do anything and did not share this information. how could one be aware of the fact that a group of people was planning on storming the u. s. capital building and do

nothing. looks like this report raises more questions than answers, kaleb mop and r t new york. the american flag is supposed to be a symbol of freedom and justice, but it's falling out of grace with the wolf brigade. r and b singer macy gray wants it to be redesigned to be more inclusive in opposite gray objects to the stars and stripes being white and proposes a low turn. it aversion with off white stripes on colored stars representing different skin tone. the singer calls the flag, tottered dated, divisive and incorrect, and she said that i was capitol hill writers were waiving it in january. it's not become a replacement for the confederate flag or idea of a redesign as far quite the reaction piece. next we're going to here they are replacing our flag was the b l m flag is just a matter of time until they renamed the white house. funny use

a flag that freed the slaves. she would rather stars and bars. the stars don't represent the color of people. they represent misstates. our flag is a symbol of freedom and a beacon of hope for many. if she doesn't like it, i suggest she moved to a country where she likes their flag. mesa gra, herself, is started torn and divisive. should we get rid of her to? she took issue in her office that she wrote about this with the fact that one of the stripe is white and that's supposed to signify purity and she wants to make that off. why? because america is not here. she is right about that american does have a troubled history when it concerns rate. however, what she's missing is that these are the values upon which the nation was founded in these were never meant to describe a nation as it is. these are a value that we must continually ascribe to, so we have to always push forward to attain those values. america was founded on values that were essentially impossible for any nation to reach. but the idea is that we continue forward to get closer and closer to realizing those those,

those values. so no, it's not tattered, it's not device of it's not outdated. yes, there are people who are wave the flag and use it for bad purposes. you can say that about any flag, you can say that about any symbol her position on this is quite absurd. well, that wraps up the newscast for no, but our programs, they are only just beginning find out what's being served up in moments. district the in the one of the worst ever mess shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy a close a little of the real last vegas. where many say elected officials are controlled by casino knows the dangerous shooting. revealed what the l. v m p

d really is and now it's part of the spin machine. most of the american public barely remembers that it happened, but just shows you the power of money and las vegas. the powerful showed that true colors when the pandemic heard the most contagious contagion that we've seen in decades. and then you have a mayor who doesn't care. so here's caroline goodman, offering the lives of the biggest residents to be the control group. to the shiny facades conceal a deep indifference to the people by it's going to be saved if they were to take an action. absolutely, keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing. this is a money machine. it's a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost. talk a lot about wild quino energy and also use all k as a metaphor to elucidate so many of the big trends happening in geo politics and

finance. if we look at this panel, you can see a lot of the old places crews that were done by your previous surgeons and they did a great job, really, your bits, naval bones are in the right place. and as just left over titanium plates will put the dental implants in take out the titanium mesh. and then when we uncover the implants that will do the last one that will be created vestibule, okay, you come along life, you've got a lot of surgery. yeah. there's still another one to go after this, just for me at least i'll be happy with your smile with teeth back at me till you take good care of her until then remember not the anything after midnight. right. okay. yeah. pizza and beer up to midnight. but night after that. okay. the

what i got locked up last year for the times it's pretty she had the baby boy. like kind of like our hard man when i got home father.

hello my dad very much. like i'm trying to see news. a lot of people out of the windows and every time i'm in public, a lot of tv. shake my head, my dad. the bro definitely sees well as his role model wants to be like him in myers everything about his day. they're fine is really strong. the i know that will has been through a lot of things in the years. i think he probably just said that he went to jail. he did senior.
