ah, they started to sexually take advantage of me and abuse me, not one, not too many, many people for a very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years. on the canadian prime ministers called the discoveries, a shameful reminder of systemic racism in coverage and others in the country to learn from past mistakes. cabins to alarm says it was genocide against indigenous canadians with residential schools, brain washing, his people for decades. this is genocide. my ancestors had a beautiful way of life here. we accepted and agreed to a treaty relationship with the crown. we did not ask for all of this to happen for 5 generation residential school had one goal. and that was to brainwash my people
8:05 am
to stop in our life of how we had it for many generations to accept a life that we didn't know based on the canadian way at one time. and so now today as a leader where the colonizing and where strengthening our self and genocide is where you try to eliminate and mentally we were, they tried to eliminate us. and today we are still resilient. we're still here and we are getting stronger one day at a time. police in paris has cleared a makeshift migrant camp in the center of the city, which was set up in protest against the lack of accommodation provided for refugees . human rights group, safe thousands of people still live on the streets after a huge camp in cali was closed in 2016 activists demanding permanent housing solutions from the government. but it seems that the message still isn't getting through to the authorities. a shall do. ben ski reports next from paris in this latest sped,
8:06 am
to draw attention to that play around 300 migrant. and they support as of set up campaign. right in front of paris is historic and real. they say they all fed up with inaction on the part of the authorities to find a solution to that housing crisis. only people, the more this is a problem of the french studied have any repeat problem. perhaps there is no european country that would really like to receive refugees. we had to demand shelter for all those remain of the street. most families with children, including babies, and accompanied miners from other countries. they don't belong on the street. many of those have all mothers with young children because it's not after you good. pregnant. i called the emergency house several times until i gave birth and done every week i was put somewhere on the table. always switching my children out site . i'm tired. does there isn't a king ok, playing public areas like this has become
8:07 am
a strategy employed by groups like maybe do me make sure camps like this effect off and then are often brutally cleared away by the authorities. amount of force used in doing so has come under severe criticism. the earlier this year around 500 migrants were taken in by the state. the authorities here in paris have also apparently cooled on the state for more action. fearful that the launch skills comes to one play, the city will return. all of this comes, of course, as european new leaders have been meeting in brussels with migration being
8:08 am
a small issue for them. the president of the parliament says the current situation is scandalous, concealing, but people added it. every time a boat arrives, what happens in brussels? i don't know. the commission starts making phone calls, asking who can take a 100 migrants who can take 50? who can take mine is in, i mean, the situation. how can it be subject to this volunteer based mechanism? it's scandalous, but again, there was no big breakthrough. and as the number of people trying to reach your fees on the rise again, it seems that they could soon be even more arriving on european shoes. and just like the people here finding themselves homeless, charlotte, even sky, all see paris, the days of billionaires paying next to no tax in the united states may be numbered . there's now a proposal to severely limit tax free retirement accounts where the super rich hold
8:09 am
vast amounts of cash and trouble by levies. it was revealed this month in the countries wealthiest people can legally pay little or even no income tax. the debate was additionally fueled by the recent prison cell, death of anti virus software. pioneer joe mcafee. it was wanted by the us for tax evasion, or he wants described america system as unconstitutional alia. been trying to follow the money trial this weekend. what would make you bear to have the slightest of thoughts about skipping on paying taxes, which would automatically make a person criminal maybe out or unfairness of the tax system when the rich and powerful pay the government close to nothing. while the poor are burdened with agonizing percentages, surely that cannot be the reality in a country as exceptional. and a good way they say as the united states, bernie sanders, who twice ran for us president isn't so sure. we have a tax code in this country that allows multi billionaires to pay nothing and
8:10 am
federal income tax that is outrageous. it is time for them to pay their fair share . voices calling the american tax system. unfair, flawed or outright rigged, grew louder this month after league files of the us tax authority. the rest showed some billionaires were turned laughable. shares of their income to the government. some of the more extravagant components of the tax code like anti virus pioneer, john mcafee, had been sounding the alarm or even waging war on the system. for a long time. this week, he was found dead in spanish prison after his extradition to america was approved. the official cause of death is suicide. the i r. ash was after mcafee, for big bucks. i have not filed a tax return for 8 years. why taxation is illegal. i pay tens of millions already and receive jack in services. i'm done making money. i leave off of cash for mcafee
8:11 am
incorporated. my net income is negative, but i am a prime target for the iris. here i am. it called taxation theft and unconstitutional, went as far as comparing the i r. s with nazi germany's part military. s. s. organisation probably a bit too far indeed. but has death will definitely aggravate the debate on how fair the system is. again, with people who are even considered part of the establishment, speaking out aggressively. a fundamentally broken system rewards jeff pays off the world's richest guy with another 78000000000 more money than any one person could ever need. while amazon workers work at breakneck pace and get no paid sick leave, our tech system is rigged for millionaires who don't make their fortune settle income like working families to the evidence is abundantly clear. it's time for a wealth texts in america to make the alter reach,
8:12 am
finally pay their fair share. on the current sex go jim basis will probably be on the moon before he bays and federal texas tech code is fundamentally broken. it is more a when the wealthiest in this country based 0 in texas, is stand, the reach pay their fair share. right. this brings me back to the i r. s, leeks, and some of the highlight in the math done by the journalist. there is no need to introduce guys like towards source healing mosque, jeff bezos right. in the years 2014 to 2018. the head of amazon paid less than one percent of acquired wealth and taxes toward sora paid no income tax at all for 3 years. in a row, you and musk who true champion if we take this company with a bit more than 3 percent in the years that i mentioned. so how do they get away with it? fully, legally, capital gains is not considered income. so capital gains when you have an asset and that asset increases in value. and if you don't sell the stock or usa of
8:13 am
a stock in the stock increase in value, you don't sell the stock, then you don't really have any cash. i mean, it would be a little bit absurd to, to tax the change in value that hasn't been turned into any kind of into any kind of money. will lead to be absurd to turn to, to treat that as income just to compare the median american household earned about $70000.00 in a year and paid 14 percent in federal taxes. people who are making $70000.00 a year should also be paying 0 taxes. the fact that billionaires are not paying taxes, that's a good thing. the middle class should also not be paying income taxes. the fact is, if the united states could just cut spending $992.00 levels, we could eliminate the income tax for everybody. we don't need an income tax in the united states at all. we have many other sources of income for whatever bare necessities we need. and most of the things that the, that the government spends money on our luxury freeze or nonsense. we can get rid
8:14 am
of all that spending and then make the tax rate 0 for everybody. and so the growing numbers really think this is absolutely unacceptable. do you get the frustration to when it comes to trust in the media, it seems the united states is falling way behind. there's also been a chart for the number of years and readers, according to a major study by britain's oxford university. the annual poll of almost 800000 people covers news consumption in 46 markets around the globe. this time it also includes india, indonesia, nigeria, and columbia for the 1st time. and the u. s. is the lowest of any of those countries that will hold it down at 29 percent. the united states is one of the few countries not to have seen an increase in trust recently. about collapse. mark's a massive drop that in just a few years. take a look at this just 4 years ago. almost 4 in 10 americans still had trust and then
8:15 am
use organizations. research say that the decline now is related to coverage of the pandemic during donald trump's presidency. when outlets was sharply divided over the government's actions, journalist and r t, how is chris hedges? says the us media now puts pleasing its audience above telling the truth. the commercial model of the us media is to cater to a specific demographic with the rise of the internet and all turn it is sources. these traditional news outlets could no longer reach abroad audience because they didn't have a monopoly. and therefore they decided to go after a particular demographics. and now what you've done is pit demographic against demographic. whether it's m s, nbc fox news, cnn. they become partisan catering to their particular demographic and what it wants to hear, but often at the expense of the truth. the oxford university findings confirm that
8:16 am
americans are deeply divided about each media outlet. for instance, almost as many distrust cnn as much as trust the left leaning network. the figures are almost identical for its rival, and that's nbc fox news stuff is one of the worst trust ratings of them all. chris hedges accuses all of them being a sham of journalism, driven by business interests. it's going to get worse because the commercial model . and these are commercial enterprises depends on not only catering to that a particular demographic, but also demonizing the other demographic. while these media outlets are designed to polarize the public, because commercially, they're designed to loop back to feedback to their viewers, or listeners or readers what it is they want to hear their own proclivities, their own prejudices. and that's the commercial model it's been created.
8:17 am
it's kind of, you know, hate versus hate. whether that's sean hannity, one side, or rachel, matto and the other. they all do the same thing. but it's not journalism. it's just, you know, per last or vaudeville masquerading. his journalism still planning ahead for this weekend on the way r t gets rare access to a military base in garza where millison of bracing for another potential flare up with israel. it's our next story when we come back. oh, what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk
8:18 am
8:19 am
urging the new coalition government to immediately hold its building initiatives. it comes after israel to prove the construction of more than 30 new buildings in the occupied territory. its long denied its settlements are illegal. meantime the you and also stressed the seats. 5 between israel and goth, is still remains very fragile. palestinian politicians are saying the new government's actions are any different from those on the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu. i've got a president ibis said, we're ready to work positively with this government on the basis that we're looking at its actions and not its words. unfortunately, its actions are still escalate and aggressive. they are just an extension of the previous israeli government, as well as it prevailed that some lessons and guards are already getting equipped for another potential flare up with israel. this channels gained exclusive video fighters of the national resistance brigade scene ramping up. the rocket supplies
8:20 am
with the focus being on long range and remote control, missiles, talking to r t. the battalion commanders say the launch is ready for immediate action and that they are well prepared for any confrontation. though, when we're talking about rockets, one 0725, some 7. see. we mean the replenishment of miss house that were released and used in the last conflict. as for miss south of the range of more than 70 kilometers, used a lot of glass. this is more widely. i'll plan for the future all in order to have something to respond to a surprise design and a name with me as in the little want. all the, all right positions is long range missiles to attack the vine. this enemy, we are ready to fully make up for what we lost in the last encounter. we've provided ammunition for mortars and long range, missiles strike, distance settlements. these are the rocket, cast them 70 and cast them 25 and we are ready to respond to any fully from our
8:21 am
enemy. despite the term goals and militants, israel maintains that it's hannah, that's igniting the conflicts between the 2 sides. last ones, major armed confrontation. so the idea of targeting residential buildings in gaza citing terrorist aggression of the medicines fired rockets at israel. the israeli operation left over $200.00 palestinians that many of them children the $22.00 and a half year prison sentence awaits the former minneapolis police officer who murdered georgia floyd more than the minnesota state minimum guidelines. however, the judge who handed down the conviction says he made the decision with a cool head what the sentence is not based on his emotion or sympathy. but at the same time, i want to acknowledge the deep and tremendous pain that all the families are feeling,
8:22 am
especially the void family. that sentences roughly 10 years longer than those usually give them for similar crimes. that's down to what the judge said was the cruelty of the murder and the former police officers abuse of power and trust. president biden shipping in saying in his view the verdict seemed suitable. however, black lives matter, tweet declared that justice had not been served. some have gathered outside the court share that view to i think anything under this current prison industrial complex is not going to feel like i was expecting a minimum of 30 years, which has been at least a decade when i now go to bed knowing that a man is going to get out of here because my daughter graduates in high school and i hope america knows that we're not done. i hope america knows not the end of this that kevin was swiftly sacked after killing george floyd a year ago when he now on his neck for over 9 minutes while making an arrest on suspicion that floyd had used a counterfeit. $20.00 bill was that spot protest across the united states and
8:24 am
the day me i and getting some immediate reaction to that sentencing. we spoke to political analyst and talk radio host, dave perkins, and also the founder of the black lives matter movement in sacramento. and tanya phase on we asked them, was the courts, the verdict impartial? if this is working the way that it usually does, if, if b l m had made any type of influence on the judgment, then it would be there would be a longer sentence be a longer sentence than 22 years unless the judge is of course it would be 11 then that would be a different story. i believe in this case, the court is someone illogically who agrees with b l. m, and essentially works from their position alongside b, l. m to make changes in society that day and be both believe need to be made.
8:25 am
whether they're correct or not is subject to discussion. i don't think they are. what i do believe that the justice system in minnesota is completely on the same side as b l. m, not because of anything b, l m says or does. but because that side is the side that they are both on politically. and it's also been revealed that america is becoming more and more segregated compared to what it looked like 30 years ago. a reason analysis is found the most economic and social divisions can be seen in the countries metropolitan areas which it's fed could further fuel public unrest. kind of more things covering that side of the story for us from new york. the united states is moving toward a place of greater healing and the unity country is horrified by racism and hate crimes and ready to move on. well, that's the party line. at least a recent report shows that it's actually kind of the opposite. there's more segregation than ever before. is every metropolitan region in the united states with more than 200000 residents,
8:26 am
81 percent 169 out of toner 9 were more segregated as of 2019 than they were in 1990. the new report from the other ng and belonging institute says that those who say segregation is over are just wrong. neighborhoods are more segregated than ever before with some for just whites and some for people of color . if you live in a white neighborhood, statistically your income is roughly twice as high as if you live in a segregated mostly non white neighborhood. for white neighborhoods, the rate of home ownership is roughly 77 percent. for integrated neighborhoods, it's roughly 59 percent. but for those living in segregated mostly non white neighborhoods, it's only 46 percent. the conclusions of the report are not pretty. the u. s. continues to be a place of segregation, not integration. now some may blame coven 19, but it's pretty clear that the united states has some rather long standing historic injustices. so will the country be able to just move on? well,
8:27 am
the report is not too pleasant on that question. either. it is unlikely that we can ever close racial disparities. let's alone significantly improve life outcomes for racially marginalized people in a racially segregated society, racial, residential, segregation. so effectively sorts people across space and bundles vitalize in resources. but no redistribution plan can ever match the swift efficacy of the underlying mechanism report does not offer any possible solutions. in fact, it actually hints that any possible effort to resolve the issue and tackle it may not be enough as the problems are so deeply entrenched. most people think that racism is just an issue in people's head, the problem of bigotry. but this report indicates that in america it's something much more than that and solving it is going to be a lot harder. caleb mop and archie, new york, one republican candidates, a new york state governance says the agenda being pushed by the american mainstream
8:28 am
and social media is only fueling the country's division trends. it's larger in 1990 because in 1909, we had a democratic part, a republican party that welcome real like it. and the media wasn't pushing on narrative for one of the all the now that the media and we have posted media and the media, the mainstream media portion are one of the other is divided by some black go raise in my neighborhood of every view. but for the most part, we are separated from the now that we had to put a mirror on, on each and i hate one another and that one group is present. now i'll be at the math, which make note that, that mean we are teaching take, we are going back with the 70 years back. but then what we are doing today, but to use it pandemic in a sense to separate and divide, to divide and hype the rates about. so fighting is to use conceptual
8:29 am
erase because at work and that's where we're at this hour. thanks for watching more grey r t programs on the way in your part of the world. i'll be back here with you next saturday afternoon update from moscow. oh, i use ah, for the 1st 9 months there was no improvement in the virus. it jumped out fully made. now that is a real sign of what's called, again, a function we're putting in a function where you take a virus, you want to make it more lethal. so exposed to unionized mice. it makes many, many, many, many, many cycles. and in just a few months, you can get something that appears to have evolved over years. and the fact that this, when this came out,
