the sea food that may be red or orange yellow. maybe we assume that they going to be on the sweet side of things and received around the softer making, making tissue. and again, they're going to be sweeter. and suddenly the me started my interest, i should say, in black americans in the soviet union, the theories was finding this portrait, even though i've gone to grad school and the master's degree in russian literature . i speak russian and i had lived over there in the late eighty's finding this portrait was, was a stunning development for me. how did i not know about this? i didn't know that this is a phenomenon that there were many african americans who went to russia in the,

in the thirty's, in the 19 twenties and several 100 african americans moved to the soviet union. and many of their descendants still live in russia. and you know, no rush, presto, yes. you choose to nice things. richard lum. the issue of the russians that i meet here, they 1st like pay your partner, that when i speak russian and then wait, wait, wait, the nation that was go back home. black american, something from racism, and a complete lack of prospects. a just the news or come up with some of the deal dealers, ancient to migrate them, be asian one by one for by doing so. so they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in

a country about which they knew almost nothing at all. some of the african americans who went to soviet union in 1930, found great success monet. deb won't you go for me to go as much less than that? you go now almost a 100 years later, a history is repeating itself. my great grandfather george times went to russia on part of the worst time to go anywhere. why not mean when i come here? ah, ah, my son to school oil is all

them. just go pull up and i made a gun and i'm what i'm but somebody me and i'm in my bubble skin, which is more should it is i suppose the others could be really deal is short. i made a gun, some bullying slips on my bumps. kavinski don't malicious when you proceed to shiver. accept me as me to get mixed race. couple who are such an issue in the united states. i think primarily because of, of the jim crow laws of that, that intense hatred of african americans. so this notion that you can mix was, was absolutely impossible for many whites to accept that it was illegal in many states. but you know, my bumps convince google bruce service because so you know what they are for the most on your job and they deem it come when use my my status and

let them store that. i knew near the door i see is much below it. but if you look at it, and this is a new country being she, since it has the constitution that actually says that they're opposed to racial and gender and all different kinds of discrimination. my grandfather george time is from us mitchell in virginia. and he ended up in rush, in the most peculiar way. she was a friend, an amazing contract with the ministry of culture room in russia. and he pretty much got in a boat and ended up in the soviet union in 1930. it's important to remember that this was the period of the great depression, and it was also a period in which shall be a government was doing massive recruitment people with technical skills.

ah, he graduated university of agriculture. if there is no career moves, there's no jobs and there's so much discrimination. what are you supposed to do? he went to a country where she had no clue what was going on. you watch rush on the news, soviet union communism. why would you want to go there? george times had a dream. and he found a solution. and seen he made history for some of the african americans who went to soviet union in 18. thirty's, found great success. you look at lloyd patterson and his son, james patterson. james patterson became

a national icon. the baby in the same as film circuits. the rare, you know, be released the movie circuit as an extraordinary story behind it. i think it was said to be stolen. favorite in the opening scene as a woman running from an angry crowd, threatening her and throwing rocks at her. realize that the bundle she's been carrying is her black child. this german impresario, as the climax of the film, revealed the truth to the audience in the circus that she has a black child. and of course, the soviet responses. so what do we care?

we don't care if he's purple or pocket out it. and then he, those jeremy is passed to various members of the audience, coey thing, him a lullaby. and one of the languages are the, the, me, me, i mean, it couldn't be more sac or in and more propagandistic by 2. but it hit all the right nerves at the time is incredibly popular. even the song, unless it should have gotten should have that on my head. and i was even a sort of a de facto anthem of the soviet union. i

it's definitely fair to say that the soviet union where the prominent leader and anti racism at the government level is not just to try. yes, it's the kitchen again. i think what, hello. what was it? what was that little black boy from the sac? his movie is now 87. he was born and raised in the soviet union. he served in the navy as a sub mariner, and he became an author. he wrote short stories in the early 19 ninety's after the soviet union collapsed. jim patterson moved to the usa to his father lloyd patterson's homeland to translate his work into english. you now lives alone in a social apartment in washington. the fin jill me,

monday though is sheila, they're going to go through new belin lo mein. but then we'll all new bill through together. we shall be very boone, the well to read new say that that really we will news categories, mood, jim's father patterson, like many other african americans move to the ussr to work on a contract basis. but he loved the country so much. he stayed and started a family here. he travelled in circles and the soviet union in moscow that he would not have in the united states. he had a wife. ready 3 sons, career, he was busy all the time. his wife was vera. at allah, she was

a fairly well known designer station designer. what he saw at that time in 1932 in stollins moscow. however, the stranger might sound now he saw us of opportunity there. oh, oh. oh oh. hello. megan the home for the godaddy. also hosted out good. good politics on dominican owns demo solution logo soon. i'm assuming for you good car. yelton's quick enough to go into said

dawn. good mister shelby. i me to go over to him. spoke with a middleman you some nice good start the la bama it to start with in this a ross, the daughter is to be an actor robot ross was born and raised in russia and now lives with her son james near moscow in a big country house james was a talented athlete as a boy, me in the late 19 eighties. he played for the reserve team, one of the country's leading football clubs, spartak moscow. daniel critical, the petosi discovered was too liberal. us no

little loop to my question lunch. so this boy, so did racism exist in the soviet union? when you mileage of my own, what are you on your business level? promote order, watching up what happened after the iron curtain fell, when the descendants of those african americans could return to america, their ancestral homeland. geothermal importance subs marshburn them with the sizable to deal with. and why now a 100 years later, is russia again, attracting african americans look wish bomb to put the show me kind of puts, it could have long distance away. you've got to go out of western civilization and culture have been infected by a mindset that prizes ideology over confident virtue over reason. and democracy is only a good idea if and when it's a lead interest. then there's the issue of competent competence used to be rewarded

. now, incompetent is overlooked. when serving ideology i have often said transparency for the pal fold, for the kids about privacy. what people care about is power. juliana sons is become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on and a huge struggle with governments and corporations who want to keep information secret and others who democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people have a right to know what they're going to do. watch how help shifts the conversation around transparency. see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the largest and most powerful employer in such

a situation. it's remarkable. it's alive. look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where the shorter the conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck rather than fear take on various jobs with the artificial intelligence real summoning the theme in a robot must protect this phone existence was exist. ah, we are just especially those tools that i see. so it's not unusual in

modern russian, it would be hard to find anyone who hasn't heard of you know, in a hunger she's worked on television since the late 19 eighties, hosting. so real popular talk shows, including russia's 1st tv show to discuss sex. this is this for the question quickly, but we can also see where, where the initial i v is media observe wiley's the see at the course or me abs. well, when you get my link, just especially i took the children i did to me up up please fix it or do less clear all the more doesn't up would be and lose at the moody me because you can. i mean yeah. which been have nika when you go to me and asked him, of course, a 1000000 times his father george times moved to the soviet union in the 1930s,

along with many other african americans. and settled in the back soviet republic where he helps develop cattle breeding on collective farms. that's where amelia spent her early childhood summer 1st and they're really didn't know when they knew what union that i was. the deal is look at them. i must school, she just just says ga ga. the downside here, so she will in the loop with him. yeah, it was the resume found that needs to be the trends that i see on my medical seals as well. so if you want me to get the book so that in that i, susan got a chance to go with us and this is similar to so i can say, is it the book that i need to go? a little golden. you my, your mama, roughly crushed into, i mean, you start cooking brilliant mother. she is my, when you will probably, i'm with,

but most on your, i mean it comes to me what you did when you, when you bring it back to service because they knew that there was racism throughout europe. ah. but if they went to london or paris, they could stay in the very best hotel was that's not what they experience in america. ah, they live for an african american in the 30s was frustrating. there would be parts of town that you would not be able to go through or you would only be allowed to go to a certain stores. if there were accommodations for black, there would be separate toilets, for example, for white, it would be separate water fountains and they will usually be lower quality. i've thought about this many times. i don't even, i don't know why more african americans didn't try to go to other places. maybe it just occurred of them

for go to patient for me to patients. you know, when you're dressed in as junior i was because i still would still be kept on the machine without the jelly is still in the deal. would you prefer to match with the drum unit? ah, when the union collapsed, the defendants and those african americans had a chance to travel and to see their ancestral homeland for the 1st time. george times his grandson yogi, at times was one of the few who went to the us in the early 1919. which didn't about acoya with theory, pitched to south coast of shore for most boys will not be unusual and dot org you are all she gets in the full you down more than that. i'm not sure. right. you could be you should let me know says

concerns you born. yeah, no, i don't the college for my course and yes in the here we do still know, but sure enough to do that i get the machine of the school children. i'm already stocks because i'm sure david, though in the morning on thursday, when i took the spanish shows to the court the what was, what are the stage screwed and that they wouldn't mind with that with the tape and little dash with it, with the internet or all the way, get with them. yes. yes. yes. so she had to preach and get fornia focused on what, what sizable deal, which is what i do with michelle with a tear with the to mandolin support you folks to wish to show us what she showed us did make arthur go ahead, but it was kick rich, can you give me a call when you got this machine? me wish i could talk to a business back to susan. i mean, it is possible in the morning. yeah. but your system,

your ticket door to door shooting me what i see. so the unlike guild you times, his aunt to amelia times moved to the usa and became an american citizen. she's lived there for the last 10 years. do of those visit, which it will do, lou, this is good. you'll do ms. simpson can use the yeah, but i see what i'm going to re annual, which has been my thought of near what you list bus leave new war. the solution is usually what you leave it in. your still with that fear would be for me to come to maybe come pick a gun. i mean, who's ill family? a few years when it seems to me, would teachers give us a new way to do both

elaborate though, and if they can still use a push. i'm not a clue as morrison it much always. yo, yo, for me of course, chemistry to probably let me go and show him be that she cook. i do mean i don't know. i just don't know if i wish i know who wishes to come for a new country. you know, any gentleman from a company from that street in your business, if it's something that we have probably mission with and it's a good price, you mentioned that you owe me almost krisha. his plan is for francine. it is not that she must clear. we're hoarsely, mom, we still young. this started as

a lot of to just keeps your place. i mean, you want to just financially and from what i see why it's that i'd make up my mind to move to russia. i want to leave a country where i was misinformation racism. have we overcome all the racial problems for the 1930. no. not at all. if you look at the recent events, all too frustrating, similar to decades past. the situation, i remember it was yesterday and i asked for help from the police where it was like an emergency. and then i became the victims ad, 3 police officers grabbed me and just throwing me down on the ground. and i had a bruise in my hand through my arm. i thought they were going to kill me,

that they were going to shoot me and little by 3 congregation officers. it was the worst experience of my life that i probably not want to ever, ever lived again. i was so sick and because i, i grew up in a normal 4th orthodox family. you know, we're not getting there is, you know, no one has a guy, and we don't have any hoodie, i thought the police go to help me. why aren't they helping me? it's history that's repeating itself over and over and over again. and it hasn't been fixed. my great grandfather george times, bearing that combination 1900, you know, didn't the great depression, the rights move and it's the same thing. just a different version. when india was the

only one i been living in moscow for one year. exactly. i teach english, i'm a teacher, i feel free and it's living in russia. in rush, no matter what time it is, i can walk outside and they were sitting outside the metro livable bench area. i remember the police officers officers walking towards us and my heart speeding fast like why? because you know, living in america, the police yellow truck, you're traumatized, and i was like, well talk, i'm scared. and then like all my friends just moved here from america, she rushed it like really 5 minutes later that same police officer comes back with the biggest bouquet of flowers, a stranger and tells me welcome to russia. you belong here.

me. i do believe there is a piece of me and the more the more i am here, the more i see that i'm not going anywhere. the lessons that i meet here. first they're like okay, you're for i know that when a depression and then wait, wait, wait, national, look, the more did she said they will start symbols be the social really lose lose weight. so say yes. and you should be on that feel still, boom would be on the doors with feel of your total billing for them with dish. so yes, the look at that a village. my yeah. gotten here. you're sitting at the bill of things on the secret jelly and you're doing your job. it is not sure

if you will just lose a gun. the social is when you create your burning, you can say you sellable new york and the additional lashley such as barbara because the small i knew what she got a job. glad to talk at mama brazil as reason. it took me a sledge also into movies or she chose my yeah, me. i know, and i don't i just because she's living gym start me literally literally in the new them it's saying, you know, just if i knew i used enough person in the push

to resist rumbled, just let me know. and i i ah, me the civic leg around the world expedition 5000 miles round the clock and give it

a dead calm as every country close by it like the crew, gavin's food and water. and to check those for sure. the little blue thing is got everybody locked down or almost no food. no. what about the really i'm not sure. somebody stuck up in the cove. it you're living like the female of own. but in the 21st century, i see

food that are maybe red or orange, always yellow. maybe we assume that they going to be on the sweet side of things and procedures around and soft and soon again, they're going to be sweet from like ah, working room or should she popped in? she said, well, i'm getting ready to go shopping for christmas and we, we simplify. there was a good divide to another, shooting another safe part of american life shattered by violence. the gunman was armed with an a r 1570 automatic rifle. when the issue comes home, it's time to act. when we're filing on this issue, the other side, when by default the lady that lived over there. i was walking one of the dogs. she said, why do you wear again? were you scared? nothing. i took it off and i think the people need to take responsibility in their

own hands and be prepared if those kinds of weapons were less available. we wouldn't have a lot of shootings and we certainly wouldn't have the number that i use . good evening and welcome to our coverage of the 2021 russian state tumor elections were up in our rooftop location, which is well it really having a se tack killer view is also very appropriate today. we're focusing of how these elections are being overseen and finding out the measures taken to ensure the integrity of the voting process. thanks so much for joining me for what his day. one of the 3 in which the electorate can cast folks will focus on what's happening in the, posing just a few minutes from now. the 1st concert on today's will use headlines.
