you know you will going to have to sort of anything humiliation he learned to cry anymore. get harder. and yet you learn to shut down. oh, in the i couldn't talk a word of english. i talked creek 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. i used to him, i tried to change the principle to take him to the hospital. he didn't, after about 2 weeks, my brother was in so much pain. he was going out his mind. i pleaded with the principal for days to take him to the doctor. ah, they started to sexually take advantage me and abuse me, not one, not too many, many people for
10:04 am
a very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years. the canadian prime minister, called the discovery, is a shameful reminder of a systemic racism and encourage the country to learn from past mistakes. the 1st nation chief, again says residential school with wanted to wipe out indigenous culture and heritage. this is genocide. my, 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 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
10:05 am
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. if our it is imperative, cleared a make shift migrant camp in the city center, which was set up to protest. the lack of accommodation for refugees. human rights group save thousands of people still live on the streets. after a huge campaign, kelly was closed in 2016 activists demanding permanent housing solutions from the government. but it seems the message still isn't getting through. shall do bend ski reports from the french capital. in this latest sped to draw attention to that fly around 300 migraine. and they supposed to have set up campaign. right in front of paris is historic. and real. they said they all fed up with inaction on the part of
10:06 am
the authorities to find a solution to that housing crisis. when the people move, this is a problem of the french state, have any retain 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 after you good pregnant? i called emergency. so i was just several times i to i gave birth and done every week. i was put somewhere in the table. always watching my children outside. i'm tired. those theories and 18. okay, playing public areas like this has become 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. you mounted for used in doing so,
10:07 am
has come under the via criticism the earlier this year, around 500 migrants were taken in by the state. the authorities here in paris also apparently cooled on the state for more action. fearful that the log scale comes that one can play, the city will return. all of this comes, of course, as european new leaders have been meeting in brussels with migration being a whole issue of them. the president of the parliament says the current situation is scandalous. concealing particularly that every time a boat arrives,
10:08 am
what happens in brussels? i don't know for 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, 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 billiard as paying next to no tax in the united states may be done. but there's now a proposal to severely limit tax free retirement accounts where the super rich horde vast amounts of the cash, untroubled by levies. it was revealed this month, the country's wealthiest can pay little or even no income tax. the debate was additionally fueled by the recent prison cell,
10:09 am
death of anti virus software pioneer john mcafee. it was wanted by the us for tax evasion. he described america system as unconstitutional. healy drank a full as the money trail this weekend. what would make you bear to have the slightest 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 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,
10:10 am
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, so ready and receive jack in services. i'm done making money. i leave off of cash for mcafee incorporated. my net income is negative, but i am a prime target for the iris. here i am. it called taxation stepped and unconstitutional went as far as comparing the i r. s,
10:11 am
with nazi germany's part of military as an organization. probably a bit too far indeed, but has death will definitely aggravate the debate on how fair the system is. again, with or even considered part of the establishment, speaking out aggressively. a fundamentally broken system rewards jeff pays off the world's richest guy with another 70, a 1000000000 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 billionaires who don't make their fortune settle income like working families to the evidence is abundantly clear. it's time for wealth texts in america to make the alter reach. finally pay their fair share on the current sex go jim basis will probably be on the moon before you base. and if federal texas outside code is fundamentally broken, it is more a when the wealthiest in this country based 0 in texas, is stand,
10:12 am
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 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,
10:13 am
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 luxuries or nonsense. we can get rid of all of 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
10:14 am
to russia's latest, mig interceptor jets have been deployed to syria as part of an ongoing security and aid package? the russian navy and air force have also been holding exercises in the eastern mediterranean, among a host of other war plains. at the drills the mix. 30 ones are equipped to carry brushes, state of the art hypersonic, ballistic missiles, which can travel 10 times the speed of sound with a range of almost 2000 kilometers. of course, syria remains in a humanitarian crisis and is still fighting terrorists in the northwest and in the province. there are also disagreements over 8 supplies. the human and western countries maintain that the bob i'll holler crossing from turkey is the best way to get a more than a 1000000 syrians living in the north west. while moscow notes are alternative routes including through the capital, damascus, these issues are expected to be addressed in peace talks in catholics down next month, i spoke to serious foreign minister at length earlier. he says the crisis could be resolved if western sanction lifted and syrians not foreign powers,
10:15 am
decide the future. i think this is appealed here for chrissy. this is another attempt to help terrorist groups and to provide them with all necessary materials to prolong the terrorists war against syria. we believe that the, the, these cross border activities are direct violation of the sovereignty of our country. an attempt to send with the so called the monetary and assistance arms and all supplies to the tutors, to groups and you know, and live there is just not a designated organization on the list of killers to groups by the united nations security council. we are opposed to such a thing and we have told all these countries directly or indirectly,
10:16 am
that syria will know. when to go to an assistance to go to the people who need. he want to do it and assistance, but not to the people who are described as tutors. if the wisdom counselors are really careful about syrian citizens, they should lift their sanctions. because these sanctions and what we call you in a lifetime, of course of measures adopted by wisdom countries and by the united states are killing the sudan people. they are not allowing us even to import medical instruments, not to mention foods and other necessary materials for the protection of the laws of the lives of innocent syrians. the only solution is to withdraw turkish troops from lit and to combat
10:17 am
tutors to groups and to allow the city and also that is to control to provide the people there with the provisions they deserve, with food, with other materials to make their life more humane. so i think what the united states is campaigning for the last 5 months, at least, to allow this cross border point to remain open is to violate the sovereignty of syria to prolong the war, the terrors war against syria to stop and the movement towards achieving the unity and territorial integrity of the country are still plenty ahead for you. this bulletin r t gets rare access to a military base and java when militant bracing for another potential flare up with
10:18 am
israel is just one of our stories account off of it. i is your media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safe relation for community you going the right way? where are you being somewhere which direction? what is truth? what is in a world corrupted? you need to defend the join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation,
10:19 am
let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. developments only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time time to sit down and talk the although again, more of a headline news. now, when it comes to trust in the media, it seems the united states is falling way behind. there's also been a sharp fall in the number of viewers and readers of american news, according to a major study by britain's oxford university. the annual paul of almost 800000 people covers news consumption in 46 markets around the globe. it also includes india, indonesia, nigeria, and columbia for the 1st time. but it's the us that's called the lowest levels of trust of any country, just 29 percent. what's more americans?
10:20 am
one of the few countries not to have seen an increase in trust recently. like collapse mark's a massive drop that in just a few years. there's just 4 years ago, almost 4 and 10 americans still had trust in the news organizations. researchers say that that decline is related to coverage of the pandemic during donald trump presidency. when outlets were divided sharply over government actions, journalist and asi house chris hedges says the us media now pleasing their 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,
10:21 am
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 confirmed that americans are deeply divided about each media outlet. for instance, almost as many distrust cnn as much as trust the left leaning network and the figures almost identical for it. rival m s nbc fox news stuff is one of the worst trust ratings of the role of chris hedges. again, says media profits are getting in the way of journalism. 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,
10:22 am
their own prejudices. and that's the commercial model it's been created. 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. is journalism. a flagrant violation of international law, the united nations of slammed israel fresh construction projects for the west bank, urging the new coalition government to immediately hold its building. initiatives becomes after israel approve the construction of more than 30 new buildings in the occupied territory. it's always denied such settlements are illegal. meantime, the un also stressed that the sci fi between israel and gas is how mass remains very fragile, or palestinian politicians war, and israel's new government has the same old policies. i've got a president ibis said,
10:23 am
we're ready to work positively with this government on the basis that we're looking at its actions and not its word. and fortunately, its actions are still escalate through an aggressive. they are just an extension of the previous israeli government. and prevailed, golf medicine saw already preparing for another potential flare up with israel. fish channel has exclusive footage of fighters from the national resistance brigades ramping up. rockets applied for the focus on long range remote control. missiles, talking to r, t battalion commanders say the launches are ready for action and that they're prepared for any fight. when we talk about truck, it's one 0725. cuz some 7 see. we mean the replenishment of missiles that were released and used in the last conflict. i spun this out of the range of more than 70 on the to see is that a lot of glass. this is more widely. i'll plan for the future and all in order to have something to respond to the surprise design and, and
10:24 am
a lot in the know the little want. all the, all right positions is long range missile to attack the vine enemy. we are ready to fully make up for what we lost in the last encounter. we've provided ammunition for motors and long range missiles strike this settlement. these are the rockets cast them 70 and cast them 25. and we are ready to respond to any falling from our enemy . let's look israel maintains the palestinian militants and driving the conflict last month's major armed confrontation. so israel defense force is targeting residential buildings in gaza fighting terrorist aggression after militants fired rockets at israel. the israeli operation left more than $200.00 palestinians dead. many of them children 22 and a half years in prison lies ahead for the former minneapolis police officer who murdered jord floyd. the judge handed down a sentence significantly higher than the states and minimum guidelines, but said that he did so with
10:25 am
a cool head for 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, especially the floyd family. the sentence is roughly 10 years longer than those usually given for similar crimes. that's down to what the judge said was the cruelty of the murder and the former officers abuse of power. you trust the president biden shipping in? i did that in his view, the sentence seemed suitable. however, black lives matter, tweet declared that justice had not been served, and some of those who gathered outside the court shared that view. i think anything under this current prison industrial complex is not going to be like john. expected 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 i
10:26 am
hope america knows that we're not done. i hope america knows, not the end of this very kevin was swiftly sacked off to killing george floyd a year ago when he knelt on his neck of all the 9 minutes while making an arrest on suspicion that floated used account of a $20.00 bill. that spoke protest across the united states and also demands for police reform the mm hm. the, the i,
10:27 am
the the day me i lot of the sentencing we spoke to political analyst day perkins and also the founder of black lives matter in sacramento, tonya 5 on. we asked them, was the court impartial? if this is working the way that it usually does, if, if the alarm 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 believed in this case. the court is someone illogically who
10:28 am
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. 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 site is the site that they are both on politically and not the way it looks from the moscow due to him so far this saturday, thanks very much for watching on call him back with the next update and just have a half an hour to see you, then i

the the, the, the news i'm action returns, we're going underground on earth. the stories buried in the circle, mainstream media coming up in the show as the china and russia snubbing g 7. summit continues in cornwall and k. we speak legendary author, historian and activists. tar golly, about the meeting of the liberal leaders and ask how hope can be grasped from the jaws of despair when it comes to palestine and demick protests and the police. all the more coming up in today's going underground is after repeated threats against china and russia. so cool g 7 leaders in england continue to talk about the future
10:30 am
of human kind from the economy to cove. it to climate catastrophe. the summit, guarded by thousands of extra members of the u. k. security forces is facing massive protests including from groups like extinction, rebellion used by birth johnson to justify new, arguably draconian, anti protest legislation. so how can protested descent really make any difference when power more and more lives in the hands of the one percent? joining me now is the original rolling stones street fighting man, author an activist carrie gully, who has been at the heart of civil protest for decades. tag. thanks so much for coming back. gone. i should say it's been a week where there's been bombing across syria linked to these very g 7 powers, obviously, following on from may's 11 day war against garza and jerusalem, you will take 1st of all on the g 7 meeting in england during
