the claims of the king of the belgians leopold the 2nd to the congo where finally authorized by the leading european countries in 1885, in the very heart of the african continent. a state under the rule of the belgian monarch was declared since the beginning, the congo free state was total, may him for the local population and functioned as a universal concentration camp. the majority of the population, including women and children, were forced to work on the rubber plantations. those who failed to fulfill their quota were beaten and mutilated to keep the congolese people under control. the king set up the so called forest bleak which were punitive detachments that cast terror on the captured country and its inhabitants. fearing that their subordinates would simply waste bullets hunting for wild animals. the officers demanded that the soldiers gave an answer for every bullet used, and as proof presented

a chop hand of an african, it was not uncommon when trying to justify the use of the ammunition. the colonist amputated the hands of not only those who were dead, but also of those who were kept alive. the atrocious exploitation of the congo turned into a real genocide. in only 20 years, the policy of the belgians led to the death of nearly 10000000 people alongside the holocaust. that genocide of the congo population is considered to be one of the grimmest pages in the history of mankind. with who is the aggressor today?

i'm authorizing the additional strong sanctions today. russia is the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. and number those constantly growing. i figure which of the problem was to call sure, as we speak on the bill in your senior, mostly mine or wish you were banding all imports of russian oil and gas new g i g with the little, you know, we're going to go to joe biden, imposing these sanctions on russia has destroyed the american economy. you so there's your boomerang. oh been known as 20 some years on the street up here trying to make

i don't know too much about my dad. never seen. i see his mom and i grew up into like really bad situation. a little rundown poor. look, you're really no fool. probably that. ah, it is basically raising his self. that's where we came in, where we was picking him up. keep him out us. so on the ropes who somehow to run the street lava. lou crystal. oh just i hey, got hers. is your pistol and you got your pistol keep it on you.

oh no. as a sand, no love among bees or we are leveling out the we all out each other will adapt for each other. no one, all i lot of people make it up to be oh there was just a group of our guys who let you hang around. and i almost kind of treated you like a peer of theirs. if they was smoking cigarettes, they would hand you a cigarette. when i was drinking alcohol, they were let you ship awesome alcohol. they paid attention. i, they, they really kind of genuinely care and they may have been in subtle ways, like penny you, a few dollars given you a nickname, so to speak. but, you know, i think the for young kids, those are meaningful moments. we want it to be like the all, jeez, who'd been the prison came home. they got to respect because they went to prison. darcy and went to prison and we want to be like them.

all my friends is either in prison, nan forever or day. and so i dug this all relic out, i wasn't certain, i could find it and it was accidental. dfi a off say dug it out of their missing. it's got to be back to $8889.00. we were educating ourselves nerves. so many kids out here run and his gang members and we started keeping a notebook on him and mr. and getting pictures and they found out we had it and they all wanted to see someone come up and say my, my face isn't in there. it goes for a photograph. those are all the original kids that were recruited and ta to be gang members by the ela gangs. they were smart, they were natural leaders, the other kids looked up to him and listened to him. they all do math and they're

good, you know, they all thought they were stupid layer because in the new school, but they knew how many ounces or in a pound, how many a balls you could get an out how much money they should get back. how much they were owed. they were sharp little guys. they had to be 10 or 12 now. when the 1st time that i've ever encountered law enforcement, i was young. i was a kid. i'm running away from home. and i was basically living in this abandoned house with all of these other teenagers and kids . one more than i was ride my bike and i was cut into the house because the house you're kind of like a, a shortcut, you know, to the next block. i've seen some police in the backyard

this morning. the police officer who drew down on them telling me don't move. she was going shoot. that's a for some other that a rest santa taken me home and sent me to juvenile. i was 11. i guess they kind of charge us with burglary for those kids at home when i kind of played them as my family when not and, and no home. that's what was there for me. every single time i what did you will always met somebody who did something different. i never met none of you kids before my life. but all of a sudden i me was say it say if i, while he's in here for possession of crack cocaine, you know,

dan and he was making 2 or 300. all that paperwork no longer. i'm on jet or selling arms. now would you rather when you, you just fuel the mom as a nation? because you guys all i a, had a, we was shut out economically, who is still shut out economically. the institutional racism that we have around economic steel persists the underlying issues m. j disparities with education, with employment, with health care, with transportation, with housing. oh, let's look at drugs. let's look again, let us look about the outcome those a night input. the inputs are the disparities that lead to that

then america, money, speech, money makes policy. money decides who makes money off of drugs and who's communities are devastated. it is systemic. are we really saying to ourselves in this that money is more upon any other thing? and how to get it and who you get it from an injustice and all that other stuff is just the system is a fund henry. yes. if that's all you leave for me to l, i will make it work. when i was killed in the hopes for white books, you know, while i'm your slave aid,

older he went to been swept into that lifestyle. but he was just a prime age for what they were looking for. he was 11 and they were already starting to recruiting process to get willie and many other young ones. so rock cocaine in powder cocaine. one time he told me that he wasn't going to go to school and i told him, oh you're going to school today. and he made a phone call in 10 minutes later there was 3 cars in the alley, gang members sitting on the hood of the car as they were drenching guns. and they told me, he says, i'm going to school today. can he's coming with us. they took him, i felt so helpless like what, how do i fight this? calling the police? they didn't care. i said it was his choice, not when it took off in mass when it got so violent. lot of kids went

around while i last about like 30 brands at this time, what we will it in a know how many license back and how bad it would end up being it just got worse. and then finally, one day i was at work and my husband at the time told me i need to get home kaiser police or go into your house for search warrants. and when i got home, they said, your son crossed the line this time, and we got him for murder. this when, when he was 17 and 18 sentenced him to 100 years impress. ah ah, ah, a
