saturday night, i'm ali velshi. coronavirus cases are continuing to spike, especially in the south and southwest after yesterday saw the single biggest day increase of the pandemic thus far, with the 45,000 new cases reported nationwide. over 2.5 million americans have now been infected. more than 125,000 people have died in america. florida was one of at least four states to post a record increase in cases today, along with south carolina, nevada and georgia. beaches around miami dade county will now be closed ahead of the july 4th holiday, but florida isn't the only state shutting things down. texas governor greg abbott, who back in april moved to reopen the state at the height of pandemic says he'd go back and fix just one thing. >> if i could go back and redo anything, it probably would have been to low down the opening of bars. >> and amid this jump in cases, texas, florida and other southern states have come to embrace the idea that masks are actually necessary and not a political statement, putting governors

rev sharpton, bishop barber, to a person what activists have been saying to me and i'm sure to you, ali, is that what's been remarkable about this 25 days of consecutive protest all over the country, really all over the world, is how diverse it's been. it hasn'tn and indigenous and everybody joining to the -- together to force real change. don't go by what they're saying, go by what's happening. people are actually changing their budgets. people are actually changing the rules, changing the laws. it's happening in new york, happening in california. they're winning black lives matter is winning. it's not the slogans they're choosi choosing, it's that they're persistent and they're winning. >> it's a small window to be on the right side of the window. so i invite all americans to jo join us. always my pleasure to spend a little time with you. good evening to you all. president trump has landed in tulsa, oklahoma. he was set to address the crowd that had gathered outside the bank of oklahoma arena as part of a pre-rally event but according to a member of the trump staff, that is not going

that's absolutely right, ali. what we are all learning is there's this deep fundamental change that has taken place. ever since ferguson, it's been interesting to see how fragmented the police departments across the country they are, how separate they are fromte one another. you can see whether it's food safety -- i was looking this week at the design of play grounds and the national guidelines we have for safe play grounds in this country. there's nothing at a federal level for safety when it comes to w police and the procedures that should be recommended to all police departments. as you say you can make some quick c changes. we saw san francisco make some announcements this week thatme they'res making quick and profound changes to how it runs. these r larger questions, thing like reporting data, which is something that academics wanted to pursue forever, being able to look across all the data we hava in this country and see what are the circumstances that lead to these bad outcomes. what are the racial disparit

there's no question about it, ali. it has to do from everything to employment discrimination to housing discrimination to discrimination with regard to health care and the difficulties that african-american, black people have in creating wealth and this issue, by the way, it's not just 50 years. it's been going on since the founding of the republic. i mean, it's impossible to create wealth if you are systemically discriminated against in terms of housing and every other vehicle for creating wealth. >> so let's say systemic racism, yamiche alcindor yesterday asked the president how he's going to deal with this issue in america we're facing at the moment. his response was the economy. but if as you describe racism is built into the system then the rising of tides is not helping african-americans the same way. so the idea the economy is going to get better and everybody's going to be happy which trump has been carrying on about for 3 1/2 years actually doesn't solve the underlying problem when it comes to african-american

ali? >> my father was an engineer and a builder, and you know, he often used to talk about foundations, and if you leave a foundation that is not properly billed and that is not dealing with all of the aspects of the weight that it has to hold, then it will crumble. we have an opportunity to actually build strong foundations insider country. we have the resources here we have the ingenuity. we have the information that's necessary. what we need to have is the will to prioritize. addressing a path and states. sometimes get anchored to the past, and the egregious things haven't happened. well, yes, we should understand the history but we should also be focused on the moment now and in the future, so we can actually make real change happen. >> well, i'm certain we will hear many good specific solutions this afternoon. on how to instill a criminal justice in covid response and economic recovery packages. so can you provide some perspective on how we should think about environmental justice mor

>> sure, ali. first and foremost the unrest we see in our streets has everything to do with the unrest black americans experience in their lives across every issue every day. disproportionate hurt and harm. black lives have been devalued since the inception of this country. from jim crow to red lining, there's a confluence of dra cone january laws. this is put in a targeted way on black communities. the response must be one that is targeted and precise. if we say that black lives matter, that means justice for black lives matters. that's why i've introduced a bill to end qualified immunity created by the supreme court. these protections have allowed officers to engage in misconduct with brutally who have callus disregard for human life, black lives. there has been no justice. this is one way we become to be precise. what's happening in the streets is not just about police accountability. it's about every issue. if black lives matter, that means black business matters. that means that black scholars

can you hear me, ali? i'm right here. >> yes, thank you, blayne. please let us know what the latest is. i brought the audience up to speed on the resignation of the police officer and the protests that are under way in the area right now. what has happened with the police officers? >> reporter: sure, so i guess the latest we can report right now just confirmed with an atlanta police spokesperson that the officer who fired the shot has been terminated, has been fired from his position. so that's certainly something that's come down new this evening just in the last few minutes or so. you heard atlanta mayor keisha lance bottoms said she did not believe this was a justified use of force and she called for that officer to be fired. we can now confirm that officer has been fired. this of course comes after atlanta police chief erika shields stepped down, resigned from his position and said she believes this is the first step of an important step to make sure the city starts healing. really what we're seeing in all of this is a stunning movement of deve

>>> good evening, i'm ali velshi in new york. unrelenting crowds of people continue to march in protest for a 12th straight night since george floyd's death in the custody of minneapolis police. family gathered for a private memorial service for floyd in rayford, north carolina today. as his coffin arrived, long lines of mourners shouted the chant "no justice, no peace." we saw that replicated throughout the country, even as more videos capture police violence against protesters, the nation's fury for an end to racism and police brutality as a whole has strong stronger. two buffalo police officers were charged with second degree assault after disturbing video showed them shoving a 75-year-old man to the ground and leaving him there as the blood pooled from his head. simply put, the country is fed up. in louisville, kentucky, crowds were out to mourn the death of breonna day lotaylor who would turned 27 years old today. similar pictures were seen in chicago, los angeles, new york city, buffalo and other american cities, including

i'm ali velshi. overnight the department of justice announced the replacement. united states attorney for the southern district of new york, an attorney who led prosecutions against and investigations into several trump associates. but geoffrey berman, the head of new york's southern district, fired back saying contrary to what trump and barr said, he didn't resign and he won't step down until the senate confirms his successor. quote, until then our investigations will move forward without delay or interruption. i'll have much more on that stand-off in just a bit. but we begin this morning in tulsa, oklahoma, where donald j. trump, the 45th president of the united states, finds himself on the wrong side of history once again. trump is simply turning a blind eye to the major events around him. surging coronavirus cases in a handful of states and nationwide protests against racial inequality made even louder by the celebration of juneteenth which marks the end of all slavery in the united states. inste

i'm ali velshi. less than one week after the burial of george floyd another black man has been killed by a police officer after an alleged use of force. when is it going to stop? let's get you up to speed. >>> protesters and mourners gather at the scene where rashard brooks was shot and killed in a wendy's parking lot in atlanta. protesters filled the streets in atlanta demanding justice. the wendy's fast food restaurant was set on fire. a heavy police presence remains in the area. last night the atlanta police chief erica shields resigned and the officer involved in the shooting has been fired. i want to take you back to friday night. mr. brooks fell asleep at the wendy's drive-through when officers were called to the scene because a man was asleep in his car. the police interaction with brooks lasted nearly 30 minutes. it was entirely peaceful until officers tried to handcuff him for alleged being drunk behind the wheel in a car that was stop. brooks is technically resisting arrest. he grabs the of

i think it's both/and, ali. if we look at freedom and liberation as a multiple choice question, it's really all of the above. so you have the completion of black dignity and citizenship is how we're going to end institutional systemic racism and white supremacy. ending racial caste means people who are latinx, people who are asian, people who are indigenous will have citizenship access and without all of us being free, none of us are free. and we're really seeing unprecedented solidarity. and all politics are local. so people are at the local level whether in tulsa or austin or new york city and they're saying we want to both end racist policies, institutionalize anti-racist policies but also institutional racial justice and inequity for all people in all communities. this is a really transformative time. and the fact that we can push juneteenth to be a federal holiday is important because symbols matter, ali. when we think about the confederate flag, when we think about symbols like confederate war memorial, th

i'm ali velshi. the department of justice announced the replacement of the united states attorney for the southern district of new york who led prosecutions against and investigations into several trump associates. that attorney says he isn't actually stepping down just yet. amid the ongoing police reform and equality movement people celebrated juneteenth, the date a u.s. general informed people slaves were free. they were the last enslaved americans to get that message. it was originally scheduled to be the day president trump held his first campaign rally. following major partisan backlash the rally is being held tonight. the location is tulsa, oklahoma. it also fits into trump's desire to play the race game. 99 years ago tulsa was the location of one of america's worst race massacres. tulsa's mayor said the campaign never consulted them about the rally. the mayor imposed a curfew for the area near the rally which caused officers to remove supporters. however, that curfew was lifted yesterday follo

>> well, it's a huge blow to all of that, ali.late friday night said the children who are in family detention centers cannot be held longer than 20 days. it's the judge reinforcing something that's been saying for decades. this is judge dolly jean who says children can't be held in these conditions. the original order had nothing to do with the parents. she can't force i.c.e. to children. right now, they're being held longer than 20 days because i.c.e. says they can release them and they can't release the parents and they did, ali, we reported on this last week, they gave these parents the option. they sent out forms and said, sat everyone down and said you can sign this form to release your child and not one of them understandably so signed that form. so that shows if i.c.e. does decide to take the other route here as you said and not release the children with the parents, they are doing something that every single one of the parents have said they don't want to do. they don't want to be separated from their children even if it m

ali: yeah, it's interesting.ning to you thinking -- talking about college students charting their own path because they cannot rely on their own institutions. he pointed out maybe the u.s. populace as a whole faces the same thing if we cannot rely on our own schools. what i think is great is there such a wealth of online tools. for code.org, even before the covid era, we've had an incredible success in adoption. today, half of all u.s. schools teach computer science, which is mind blowing compared to where it was when code.org started in 2013. it was less than 10% of schools. and most of these schools are teaching computer science on code.org. the feedback from students and teachers has been amazing. and because it is all an online platform, it is already kind of design for remote learning. exact experience that a child in the classroom could be experiencing is something they can log into and continue online at home. even if it was not part of their classroom, any child who is stuck at home during covid-19 can go

joining us now ka leah ali and jacob ali wartheimer. welcome to both of you. young man, jacob, you are a college student. you are the the face of so much of this protest that's going on in the nation right now. tell me what's on your mind. >> what's on my mind is that i really want to make sure that people understand that what happened recently was a horror but make no mistake it's not an aberration, this is part of racial discrimination and hatred that's existed on this land for 400 years. it's time people take a stand and stand up and say enough is enough. i think african-americans in this country b have saying enough is enough for a long time, and i want to call on white america now to do their part too and to really step up and make sure that they're not sitting by and just being bystanders towards injustice. it's not enough anymore to say i'm not racist or just watch from afar. it's time to act. it's time for white america to do their part and address the issues of white supremacy that exist in their own community. that's the horror that's inflicted upon

ali, i have to feel sorry for you.ou were the subject of a tear gas attack in the streets to clear the crowd. you know what it does. tearing eyes. runny nose and coughing. coughing six feet. it could go past that. you are spreading the virus. two things we worry about. people asymptomatic spreaders and people who have a test which is a false negative. they may feel lifine and spread the virus. everyone should have a mask if they go to the mass protests and we should try to keep social distancing if we can. if you are being detained, you can't do that. if you inside a car, you can't do that. if you are with 100,000 people, you can't do that. >> dr. campbell, good to see you. dr. campbell. a professor of surgery at uc san francisco. >>> neither george floyd or breonna taylor or ahmaud arbery were able to get due process and they never will. how their deaths are resonating with youth across america. ♪ young black man ♪ doing all they can ♪ to stand ♪ up and look round ♪ i see what been done ♪ to our kind ♪ every day ♪ i'v

"the 11th hour" with brian williams begins right now. >>> and good evening once again. day 1,133 of the trump administration. 151 days to go until our next presidential election. as we come on the air tonight at the end of this difficult and long and emotional week for our country, marches and protests are under way for the 11th straight night since the death of george floyd. today our president said this was a great day for george floyd because of today's economic numbers. today the city council in minneapolis took a major step toward remaking the police department there, starting with a vote to ban choke holds. in louisville, people remembered breonna taylor, fatally shot as she slept during a police raid on

imran ali. i asked him about the rise of cases across several states and about that harvard doctor's prediction. good morning, dr. ali. thank you for joining us. let's talk about an alarming new warning from a harvard doctor who says we could see 100,000 more lives lost by the end of the summer due to a lack of social distancing and other precautions not being taken. what are your thoughts on that number? >> i think that number of 100,000, 200,000 by september is likely possible because now people are having a lot of fatigue of social distancing and being trapped in their homes, and we can see that by memorial day weekend and how people, you know, they were out and about and some of them did not adhere to the social distancing, and by some estimates the cdc actually states that by the end of this month, we could see anywhere between 118,000 to 143,000 deaths just in the month of june. >> and speaking of rising cases, we're seeing cases increase in 20 states with deaths rising in 14. you mentione

i'm ali velshi. we begin with break news. atlanta's police chief, erica shields, is stepping down after a deadly officer shooting was caught on camera. here is some cell phone video of the incident. it is disturbing. police say they were responding to a report of a man asleep in his car blocking other drivers. atlanta police say brooks failed a sobriety test on the spot, resisted arrest and apparently got hold of an officer's taser. the video shows brooks running away before you can hear shots fired. today the georgia bureau of investigation released surveillance video that continues to show the incident where the video ends. it shows brooks turning toward police, firing the taser before police fire on him and he drops to the ground. here's the mayor reacting earlier. >> while there may be debate as to whether there was an appropriate use of deadly force, i firmly believe there is a clear distinction between what you can do and what you should do. i do not believe that this was a justified use of deadly force and have called

i'm ali velshi. today marking stunning and dramatic milestones. short time ago, the global number of confirmed cases surpassing 10 million according to the latest johns hopkins data. an unimaginable milestone as the spread of the deadly disease has claimed the lives of almost half a million people since first being reported in december. here in the united states, cases of covid-19 top 40,000 for a fifth straight day on saturday. the rapid rise has been most dramatic in southern and western states. florida, georgia, south carolina, and nevada all hitting new daily highs yesterday. on saturday, the florida department of health announced 9585 new cases bringing the total infections recorded in early march to 132,545. with that daily high, that state alone is approaching what the entire nation of italy had at its overall worst. but florida governor still said there are no plans to mandate face masks to help stop the spread. okay. here is what we know from past experience. it's a pattern. first come the confirmed cases, then the increase in hospitaliza

i'm ali velshi. president trump held what could go down as the deadliest political rally in american history last night. as you can see, trump's first campaign event of the covid-19 era was far less popular than expected. the crowd in the 19,000-seat venue was a far cry from jam packed that his campaign was predicting. turnout was so low that trump and mike pence's remarks at an outdoor stage were cancelled minutes before they were set to begin because no one was there. the stage was actually torn down before trump started speaking inside. like any wannabe despot he spent most of his remarks pontificating about the apocalyptic future that he claims will happen if anyone but him is president. but here's what's missing from the speech. no meaningful solutions for the racial tensions. no naming of george floyd or breonna taylor and no mention of black lives matter. he also continued to dismiss the coronavirus pandemic saying we shouldn't even bother with it anymore. >> testing is a double-edged sword. h

brian. >> ali velshi, thanks. as we keep saying separate and apart from the peaceful protesters last night in new york where the looters, laid waste to parts of midtown manhattan, today, we heard from the mayor of new york saying they were not in control last night. short of calling in the 13,000 national guard in the state of new york, the governor seems to have prevailed. the streets seem calmer and more peaceful tonight. our correspondent shaquille brewster is in minneapolis, where we last spoke to him last night, a neighborhood by design is a peaceful place because it is a sacred place. it is the street where george floyd was killed. shaq. >> reporter: brian, we're actually across the street from that exact location where george floyd was killed over a week ago. we know that curfew in effect, plenty of people here, plenty of people protesting and letting their voice be heard. there's a whole ceremony back there. you hear someone speaking, they're talking about george floyd. this is the scene you've been seeing

ali?so the video that we are seeing now, which follows from the video that you were seeing of the tussle on the ground, we now know to be more than 40 minutes into the interaction between the police and mr. brooks. jim, let me ask you this. it's a point that was brought up by roland martin earlier tonight. it was brought up by jelani cobb earlier. it was brought up by marq claxton. and that is after having seen george floyd's video or whatever other videos that you've watched in the last few years, there is a fear amongst some black men about what happens when they go into police custody. so there is an added element here when we're talking about deescalation of the fact that the act of arresting a black man for a non-violent crime has people worried. there may be some instinct there to run, to get away, to say -- i mean, i heard people telling me tonight and today, and i've heard this from others who exist in positions of prominence in society, to say that nothing feels like the feeling o

>> ali velshi, thanks. as we keep saying, separate and apart from the peaceful protesters last night in new york, where the looters laid waste to parts of midtown manhattan, today we heard from the governor of new york say that the mayor and the new york city police department were not in control last night. so short of calling in the 13,000 national guard in the state of new york, the governor seems to have prevailed. the streets seem calmer and more peaceful tonight. our correspondent shaquille brewster is in minneapolis where we last spoke to him last night, a neighborhood which is by design a peaceful place because it is a sacred place. it is the street where george floyd was killed. shaq. >> reporter: and, brian, we're actually right now across the street from that exact location where george floyd was killed over a week ago at this point. we know that here in minneapolis, there's that curfew in place. that curfew went into effect at the top of the hour, and you still see plenty of people here, plenty

ali, i cut you off before we got to the former vice president.hat more can you tell us about how that is being received by faith leaders and protestors? >> reporter: well, of course, ayman, that scene of president trump with the rhetoric that we've seen on his twitter feed starting to match what we saw from law enforcement here yesterday afternoon as they cleared peaceful protestors using tear gas and rubber bullets, all in the name of president trump being able to walk across the park behind me and end up for a photo-op at st. john's church right across the way. that's been a move that's received condemnation widely. as we were talking before, a few dozen members of black clergy gathered condemning president trump. the protest was serious, somber, but it was also really hopeful. watch. ♪ ♪ we shall overcome >> ayman, in terms of what we're seeing here outside the white house, though, overnight we saw that these big fences were put up sort of fortifying the position around the park. this is a place that's seen a lot of the protests here. and we h

this is symbolic of the week he has had. >> yeah, it is, ali. but donald trump has a solution for it. he is going to lie about it. he is going to walk out there and he is going to lie about it and tell you that every seat was full and it doesn't matter what the cameras show. but the reason this location was chosen is because they believed they could get a turnout. at the time they chose it they believed it was a low infection rate area and pure republican area and so of course it will be easy to fill this thing up. donald trump of course is the one who says we are supposed to judge public political events by the turnout. that is his measure. he doesn't say, you should judge it by the quality of the rhetoric. he says you should judge it by the turnout. so he has brought on this judgment on himself and when you have the empty seats up there, you know, that is the problem donald trump has created for himself. >> empty seats up there, empty seats close to where the camera is. there's an entire outside that was supposed to have a second event he shou
