the jefferson's, the cosby's, good times, all that, tell me about the rolled up active has had on allor the series to celebrate? >> the thing about television is that it's an intimate art form. it's an intimate form of cinema. when you go to the movies, you're expecting a spectacle, to be blown away, on the edge of your seats. when you watch a tv show, we are expecting to be brought into the interior world of a character, almost like hanging out with friends or with a group of people that don't know all but want to know. i think that brings the lives of black people into people's homes, and what they're your a puck person and go, oh, my god, their lives are just like mine, or you're not a person and go, oh, my god, those peoples lives are just like mine. it creates a sense of empathy for black people that i think is unique to television or form. >> yeah, that's interesting. so your show, they are what people, was part of this way for black tv shows like atlanta or insecure, and a featured a new generation of black creators and characters and stories. what was your vision for your show

television was the '90s where you had shows like "living single" and "a different world" and "the cosbyce of bellaire" which were so uniquely different in representation of black life. as a comedian, we haven't really gotten the opportunity to see black women comedians really given star status in the same way that we've seen black male comedians. but black women comedic actresses during the '90s, especially on shows like "living single" were thriving and really served as great influences for someone like me. >> and what else are you watching these days? what would you like to lift up as a show that this is what you're into right now? how would you like to see the industry change? >> oh, i'd love to see the industry be representative of the nation. i'd love there to be an opportunity for black creatives to be supported in telling their own stories versus just telling stories that make white executives feel seen. i think that for those of us that in america who fall into the quote, unquote people of color or minority category, especially as creatives, so much of our ability to navigate ha

those first person really detect novels that has, you know your essay cosby's alongside the maltese falcon alongside chester himes. and so we started from this idea and at this point we've done 90 libraries across 23 prisons and in eight states. and was fascinating as we went from like people telling me, you can't convince the d.o.c. to do this to two prisons called in. they're saying, you know, we really those libraries on the housing because they recognize that it brings some it brings huge opportunity ease and it's just a moment a woman you know a guy wrote me a sit in a 25 years i've been locked up i've never seen anything. this this impact will happen. and when we was in his women's prison, california, this woman came up to me and said, you did this. i was like i mean, i didn't do it by myself. i mean, that i did drive an 18 wheeler from connecticut to get here at the library as well, and a handmade shell was most of it. i was like, now, of course, i didn't do those things. i was like, but i've run it. and i mean, i'm making a joke. you and she's weeping and she's trying to talk. she'

the cosby is not -- now .8%. samsung is losing against sk hynek's.is is reporting better-than-expected revenue. >> bloomberg intelligence expects asian-pacific airlines to extend their strong rebound in the second half as post-pandemic travel kicks into full swing. joining us now is the association asia-pacific headlines. as i was saying, i think last time we had you here was actually during the pandemic so much has changed since. we are still not full capacity and there are concerns that some airlines are not in a rush to add that capacity. through staffing, equipment or otherwise. how close are we to a full recovery? >> recovery as a whole is almost 95%. the asian-pacific is lagging a little bit. the asian-pacific words only open six months after the rest of the world. it probably takes another six months for the asian-pacific to be back to the 2019 levels. in this industry, it is a very difficult industry. it is like driving a car by looking in the rearview mirror. there will be a lot of traffic growth. then something like covid happens. when bord

look at with the cosby is doing at the moment. this after we saw the korean one declining.data declining. wraps more downside for economic growth and south korea. -- perhaps more downside for economic growth in south korea. we will be watching those kapok stocks. cracks are big earnings week i had. a big week when it comes to central-bank decisions. the rba is really one we are watching very keenly in terms of the directional sense we get for risk assets here in australia as well. it is the aussie dollar and the bond markets in the wake of the fed last week. this is the staggered up and looking pretty flat at the moment. following that broader trend higher for the rest of the region. we are also watching the aussie dollar at 66.60. whether they choose to stay on hold but higher for longer, there are political applications into their decision as well given the changeover when it comes to the new rba governor. we are also watching the strength of the labor market as well as the consumer. all of this will play into what the rba decides given that inflation numbers have come do

perhaps we will see stronger tech moves, keeping in mind what we are seeing with the cosby at the startand we are also seeing still that korean won. it's fairly steady but around the five month high. let's change on because the session also underway with australia, the asx 200 coming online and we are seeing it here at the start of the day, trending a little bit higher. key details that we are watching in particular will be those materials names. we have the likes of rio tinto, woodside as well putting out their production targets, seeing a bit of softness coming through from the chinese economy and that is really the key one to watch as well not just for metals, broader commodities, but the asian equity benchmark because yesterday in the session , it really was that story of the policies coming out to boost consumption. a lot of concerns around the property sector as well. it's the two stage divergence we are seeing between the u.s. economy and what is going on in china. >> let's bring in our next guest his has a key risk will come from a lack of positive news flow. with us is the dire
