more advertisers joining that boycott today.he question that continues to be asked, does mark zuckerberg have too much power? i want to bring in kurt wagner. give us the latest. target added insult to the list, which is a huge advertiser for facebook. >> it is. i believe last year, target was a top 30 advertiser across facebook's companies spending million in0 $7 facebook ads. definitely a notable name. we have seen a number of notable names. but i think really what this comes down to come i have been speaking with a lot of the organizers of this boycott, they keep saying that they want facebook to be accountable and they are saying that mark zuckerberg has too much power. these are issues that cannot be resolved because mark zuckerberg is not going to give up any of that control. that is why am not convinced that this boycott will lead to the middle ground that i am sure some advertisers would like. emily: you wonder how much it will impact the business. you saieh huge drop on friday but the last couple of days, shares have ris

then we have the emmett till, the montgomery bus boycott.y show us both the tragedies of the movement, right? the everyday realities for african-americans, but also the possibilities of a movement. so i think for those young students, they were tired, they were frustrated. i know that the greensboro four mentioned that they were not only motivated the death of -- motivated by the death of emmett till, by the montgomery bus boycott, but also, king had come to speak at their college in 1958. and listening to him speak about nonviolence and listening to him speak about the injustices of the world, really motivated these young men. and they weren't alone. while they are having this conversation at their university, the women at bennett college, which is a historically black women's college, they are having similar conversations. so there is an energy, there is a conversation going on. and this seems to be the moment in which to do it. we are also at a moment whether federal government is arguably more supportive of civil rights than it had been,

do you think they really will want to sustain a boycott for very long?ng? well, look, i think there area long? well, look, i think there are a couple of things to point out. first, this is one of the old est out. first, this is one of the oldest civil rights organisations in the us, and this has been codeveloped by the adl, the naacp, and a range of civil rights groups. number two, we have come together not for a boycott on facebook, but rather, we call for a pause on advertising for the month of july. and why i am so encouraged is that we have had tremendous positive feedback from companies who agree that if facebook does not stand up for racialjustice, if facebook allows h to proliferate on the platform, those not they want their brands associated with any more. “— their brands associated with any more. —— hate. their brands associated with any more. -- hate. you do hear people say that if twitter can at least make some moves against misinformation, why can't facebook? but then, so much of hate speech and fake information on facebook happens in closed

say, when wanted to people did boycotts, like rosa parks and woolworths. when they stop spending their monday, that is what made people change their minds. they do not change their hearts. because the dollar wasn't coming in but it's sad you have to hurt a person in their pocket before they have a change of reaction. i want the people to really think about that. we should not have to boycott and not spend our money for you to change your policies. i want to say thank you. in these last three months, i'm 55 years old, i have learned more about black history than ever. the schools are not teaching it and i hope and pray this will get to the united states government. we need to have black history in every school in the united states of america. it should be mandatory. thank you for your time and god bless you and i appreciate c-span for allowing us to say what we need to say. host: professor parker. guest: thank you. you are right, the story about being fired after an employer learning that one is in fact black was actually quite common. it is something that

governments are saying very little so the indian news media are doing their thing speculating talking boycotts urging their political leaders to wage an economic war against china on the other side of the disputed border the coverage is almost nonexistent this is a story about narratives and 2 governments that in their own ways are out to keep a lid on this conflict before it gets out of hand our starting point this week is the sino indian border. even in the year 2020 with everything that has happened this story is a category of its own a border clash between 2 nuclear powers with a combined population of more than 2700000000 there soldiers in gauged in hand to hand combat at least 20 lives lost a conflict with enormous implications that we know almost nothing about since it happened in the most remote place imaginable and almost unpopulated corner of the himalayans terrain is very. all troops for me this. human habitation the union government has and i'm not pressed to visit the area and the details. trickling from sources in the indian army have been given some information. based but it don

shop owners say they support a boycott of chinese products. we have to offer that people and no longer buy chinese and we'll make an effort to buy indian meal even if we make less profit. but others told us they could make a living if they didn't sell chinese made products but were afraid of saying that in the current climate of anti china sentiment. china isn't just the biggest exporter to india it's also a crucial investor in some of its most successful e-commerce companies but i don't think it's practical because you know the indian economy. is very close to the chinese economy and you know we rely on joe know for a lot of critical products it's not easy to really replace all the boards. because you know you need to invest a $1000000000.00 to. manufacturing and that can't happen in a hurry. so while people destroy chinese products in public and the hash tag boycott chinese products trends on twitter the latest model of chinese smartphone one plus sold out online in minutes elizabeth al-jazeera new delhi. if he is rejecting a push by egypt t

and instagram to show support for a movement called hashtags stop hate for profit groups say the boycott is in response to facebook's long history of allowing racist violent and verifiably false content to run rampant on its platform joining us now to discuss just co-host that investigative journalist. bet i feel like we put you on the facebook be quite often but you're so darn good at what we do here now this boycott is clearly not being started by advertisers so who is behind it yes it's actually a kind of a coalition of groups we're talking about the in double a.c.p. the anti-defamation league but maybe 2 of the more famous and then you have some smaller groups are not not as well known but this is what they primarily do they focus on trying to drive advertisers away from content they don't approve of we're talking about groups like sleeping giants color of change free press and common sense these are groups again as i said really are specifically being created for the purpose of saying how do we get advertise. to stop advertising with content and platforms that we disagree with they'

we received more than 2 million votes, which is absolutely unprecedented. >> the boycotts fulfilled its meaning. it completely exposed the regime. today,y, everyone can see what serbia looks like. with such a turn outcome of this government has no legitimacy. we have been seeing this for a year now. from the day we decided to enter the boycotts. >> prosecutors at the international criminal court trying to return last year's acquittal of former iv ricoh's president on charges of crimes against humanity. werehund's right-hand man accused ofof allegations of -- d the west african nation. around 30001 come people died.d. the -- sees the acquittal of formrmer ivorian president bag o and his former youth m minister was s a blow for the prosecutio. >> the prosecutor hahas failed o satisfy the burden of proof to the requisites as foreseen in article 66 of their own statute. -- examined the icc took place right after the 2010 presidential 11 -- presidential election. between supporters quickly turned to post-electoral violence with brutal clashes and attacks that killed a r route 30 people. accu

this advertising boycott is going to continue. market value dropped yesterday morning as stock prices slid for a second day. it shook off the loss with a 1.2% gain on monday afternoon. >>> the time is 4:58. an african-american brewer is asking others to join him in creating a special dark beer with the label, black is beautiful. this was developed by marcus. he grew up in sacramento. he works in texas. breweries in 17 countries are joining this campaign, including more than 900 breweries in the united states. 19 craft brew companies in the area have signed up, like the black-owned speakeasy in san francisco. there is another one joining in martinez. >> this is one of the cool things about the beer industry, you know? we try to support each other. >> it has been crazy as far as reception has been. it has been an unbelievable experience, for sure. >> he says each beer with the label will lead to a conversation about racial issues and social justice. he is asking breweries to donate proceeds to nonprofit groups that are helpful to mi

that not proving sufficient for these brands no not at all in fact starbucks decided to join this boycott after facebook made this announcement on friday so that shows that it's clearly not enough for a lot of these brands and they're going to continue to face pressure you know if facebook did and they should be given some credit they have taken actually a number of positive steps we look at hate speech and things like that over the past year or 2 years since this issue has been raised and they said they're going to broaden these categories and one of the things that really is interesting here is they're going to try to label statements that would otherwise be prohibited under their rules but are made by political figures of course trump is probably really in the crosshairs here and that's really the most controversial aspect of this whole thing that's really what consumers with these advertisers want to see is is what's going to happen about these political statements made by someone who can be so incendiary and the groups affiliated with him will those be dealt with what happens next in

that's a very good point even if facebook faces a boycott through july it's limited tiech. could this be an opportunity for companies to say we're going to right size our ad spend and add july and might go back in a reduced way. >> yeah, i think more importantly, this is a great opportunity for facebook to really take a stance on compliance i was thinking of other industries around longer than social media, digital advertising, the outdoor industry, television, radio. and there's a lot more compliance that goes into when an ad is submitted thinking through the implications of that ad. so i think this is a great opportunity for the industry, for facebook, to really look at what compliance means in this new age of instant advertising where anyone can go on and create an ad and post it in seconds. i really think that's more of an opportunity to reset, if we're going to reset anything, to reset spending. >> you don't think of this as potentially companies saying we're not going to go back to facebook in the dollar size we were going, we were advertising before this boycott. >>

you know, he brought it on himself, this boycott, brian, when he took an utterly amoral position thatnything goes. well, no society, especially a democracy, can survive with that philosophy of anything goes. and the organizers of the boycott were absolutely right when they argued that facebook allows racist, violent and verifiably false content to run rampant on its platform. and what does zuckerberg do? he gave them months ago the middle finger and went off to have a private dinner with donald trump. look, he is an autocrat. he has one of your own cnn analysts says he has total voting control over facebook. even the shareholders can't fire him. so, if you believe that injustice, when injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty, you have to admit the organizers of the boycott were left no other way to defend democracy against the hate and b bigotry that facebook was dumping like garbage into the public square. >> they're hitting them at the bottom line. that's what's so notable. this is all about profits. they're going after the profits from facebook's ad revenue. let's turn from f

cancelled what we can start from a she always had this problem that you cannot really know whether to boycott the election at the time when they didn't get in the middle of and i mean of course you many people thought what would be too dangerous to go to go but we can't so she didn't know what that's called for boycott or to pull for working for. the majority of the opposition vote especially to go off the largest opposition party. citizens that form and bend venturous cos he can even use force here or at least people thought it would be clear that it would go with no ballot boxes and cost that vote he's up against off the infected when that happens then he started to mobilize by actually he's here he's. so he's so essentially essentially professor. sort interrupted but essentially he benefited from from the krona virus and the previous opposition party leaders in decision is what you're saying i want to ask you this i mean the vote was already postponed due to covert 19 how can we be sure they'll pull it off this time quickly. well we can't actually be conned because there are big. and often
