edmund said covid travel restrictions had made "working together quite difficult".end, that will have given lewis hamilton a bit of time to catch his breath, take stock and hopefully celebrate a little. in his first uk tv interview since becoming world champion for a record equalling seventh time he told sally nugent about his hunger to win more in the sport and also the responsibility he feels, in trying to make f1 more diverse. i've definitely not got used to it. i've had more messages than i've ever had in my entire life, some of them from some incredible people. go on, drop me some names. tell me who has sent you messages. the royal family posted a message, which was, i mean, wow! i was just, to see the royal family do a personal post, i think that was, for me, that was the most, that was one of the biggest honours i feel like i've experienced. how important is it to get that recognition, when you've worked so hard for so many years? in all honesty, i don't do it for recognition, you know? i've trained my whole life, i think the most important people when i got

yeah, my name's edmund, edmund chang, yeah -- in japantown area. we have, like, the 10 karaoke room. it's a private room, yeah. we [indiscernible] and then, yeah, any -- we try getting small entertainment business over there. any question on my application? >> so the location is an existing location, right? you're just taking over? >> yes. >> is that the one on gary between laguna and webster? >> yeah. >> it's that one, right? >> on gary. >> and you have experience running karaoke bar before? >> i doing, like, entertainment, yeah, before, yeah. i doing the safe entertainment running, you know, hosting the concerts like within, like, 5,000 people. >> so kind of promoter, right? >> promoter, yeah. >> okay. yeah, i've been to that karaoke bar before. it's had many owners. a lot of people like to go there, unfortunately can't go there now, but -- so you're just kind of wanting just to take over the existing business and running it the same way? >> even before i don't know what they do before, but now we going to do karaoke only, no alcohol. just for fu

edmund won the new york open in february alongside franco davin.n just one of his seven matches. edmund said covid travel restrictions had made "working together quite difficult", with davin living in the united states. and, before i go, it's that time of the year when the top basketball stars are picked by the teams in the nba, and it was an emotional moment, when anthony edwards paid tribute to his late mother and grandmother, as he was named the number one draft pick, with a move to minnesota timberwolves. both family members died of cancer and the georgia guard, 19, sat next to paintings of the pair as the announcement was made. a very moving moment for the player. that's all the sport for now. more on all those stories and build—up to the atp finals on our website, with rafael nadal taking on defending champion stefanos tsitsipas tonight for a place in the semis. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. i will be back with another update at around i will be back with another update ataround 2:30pm. thank you very much. good afternoon, you are watching bbc news

another plan, edmund randolph of virginia says how about having three presidents at once. he's talking about three regional presidents, and then you have alexander hamilton of new york who wants a very strong executive, so he says how about president for lifetime which needless to say having gotten rid of king a few years ago was not overly popular to these men so eventually they settle on the president for four years at a time, but then they have that level of electoral college, and we get a lot of questions about that here. why, why would they do that electoral college? there's probably several reasons. one of them is simple distance, the idea of having states that are days and days and weeks apart of each other from georgia to new hampshire with not a lot of great roads and travels can be difficult, so -- so having this notion of sending people together to vote makes a lot of sense mechanically and then also you have this idea that with the electoral college you're making sure the smaller states have a certain amount of say, so you're trying to balance a lot of differen

it is what he walked across the edmund pettus bridge for, got on head bashed in, not just that occasion but on numerous occasions. it is what we need to pass in the house to restore the voting rights act. we passed it in the house. we need to pass it in the senate and we need a president who will sign it. that's why i'm so happy about the prospects for georgia being twoe -- being able to elect georgia senators who will be partners as opposed to obstructionists of georgia's sordid past. we need two senators that will work toward this new south ideal that was expressed by georgians on november 3 in voting for the democrats. i think we are going to measure up and i believe we will win these two senate seats in georgia and thus change the nation. north, southn carolina, democratic caller. caller: hello, sir. like they are charted black votes to be discarded, so how do you feel about basically what the republican party is saying is they do not respect the black vote? guest: this has been the history of georgia. it has been the history of the south, and frankly the nation has not been exempt

and we can talk an attitude to make as tourism minister edmund bartlett. mr.bartlett, welcome to the program. tourism is a hugely important industry in your country. how badly have people's livelihoods been affected by the pandemic? by the, by then, it has literally devastated over tourism armies have more than 65 percent for the year. so far. the economy said has shrunk between 11 purposes and the jobs of also been reduced from 170000 down to or level 59000. so it has been a tremendous impact on her part of me. and it has brought much of the economic activity in jamaica. and so many people of life affected there that we had honor, of course, by the so-called, resilient card or us. what are they exactly, and how do they work? where there isn't part, or is a geographical area between the established there isn't said as of jamaica. and the good news is that oil is said as are on the coastline in the north side of the country. and it's both it by us in the highway. so all the areas from the ports and told you that have some of it in the 85 percent of all the gold

that's where fort wagner was and where edmund ruffin was, but that has changed a lot due to the tides and there's nothing out there and there are no monuments or markers like that and they're only accessible by boat so it's difficult to get out there. you have multiple sites to check out there, but charleston overall is a beautiful city and a lot of people associate it at the initial war, and even before the revolutionary war and a lot of the original buildings and sites still exist. it's a wonderful place to visit and to involve yourself in a lot of history there, but yes, thank you very much. oh, if you want to read more about these. if you want to read about the initial battle i definitely recommend "allegiance" by david detzer. if you want to know about the siege of charleston that happened from '63 and '64 read "gate of hell" by stephen weiss, and the former historian, rick hatch who had the privilege of working at fort sumter will have a book called "thunder in the harboret harbor" and cover all of this and hopefully include the sites you can visit. thank you very much, and i ap

british tennis number two kyle edmund has split with his coach afterjust one season together.st, has won just one of his seven matches. edmund said covid travel restrictions had made "working together quite difficult" with davin living in the united states. and before i go, it's that time of the year when the top basketball stars are picked by the teams in the nba, and it was an emotional moment when anthony edwards paid tribute to his late mother and grandmother, as he was named the number one draft pick, with a move to minnesota timberwolves. both family members died of cancer and the georgia guard, 19, sat next to paintings of the pair as the announcement was made. that's all the sport for now. more on all those stories and latest from the atp finals on our website. i will be back with another update later on. we will take a couple of minutes now to talk about the us election. it's been 16 days since voters went to the polls across the united states, but there's still no concession from president trump afterjoe biden's victory. let's take a look at what we know so far. the

so we just made our way from brown chapel a & e church to the edmund pettus bridge which is a movementrotesters in selma during the voting rights movement would have made three separate times. the first that we know of bloody sunday. on sunday, march 7, 1965, protesters gathered at brown chapel a & e church in the playground area to get their wits about them and be prepared to go from selma to montgomery. how did they get the dwrod have a march from here in selma all of the way to montgomery? it was actually the direct action that they wanted to take in response to the death of jimmy lee jackson. jimmy lee jackson was a 26-year-old veteran who lived in marion, alabama and during a night march in february 18, 1965 in that city he was shot by an alabama state trooper while protecting his mother and grandfather from being assaulted and the marchers in selma wanted to do something that was in honor of jimmy lee jackson and they decided that taking his body all of the way to the state capital and laying it on the state capitol to show george wallace how important voting rights were to them

and what we know he did in shedding blood on that edmund pettus bridge -- he got arrested 40 times.ot in good trouble, told us to get in good trouble. you know, the thing about john -- and lucy knows this -- he was an extraordinary human being. john also understood that the fight for voting rights is an extension of our fight for civil rights. john was front and center on the fight for marriage equality, john was front and center fighting for daca and fairness. that is the reason to vote. this is a moment to honor the ancestors. to honor -- we just celebrated the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment. [cheers and applause] all those suffragettes in their rights, marching and shouting for a woman's right to vote. of course, while we remember history, you must remember it accurately. black women could not vote until 1965. so, we still have work to do. reason number one, honor the ancestors. reason number two, everything is at stake. everything is at stake. we have talked about so many issues. let's talk about a woman's right to make decisions about her own body. let's talk about ren

so we have made our way from brown chapel ame church over here to the edmund pettus bridge, which is a movement that african-american protesters here in selma during the voting rights movement would have made three separate times. the first is what we know as bloody sunday. on sunday, march 7, 1965, about 600 protesters actually gathered at brown chapel ame church in the playground area in order to get their wits about them and get prepared to go all the way from selma to montgomery. how did they get the idea to have a march from here in selma all the way to montgomery? it was actually the direct action they wanted to take in response to the death of jimmy lee jackson. jimmie lee jackson was a 26-year-old veteran who lived in marion, alabama, and during the night march on february 18, 1965 in that city, he was actually shot by an alabama state trooper of while trying to protect his mother and grandfather from being assaulted, and about eight days later, he died. the march was really in honor of jimmy lee jackson, and they decided by taking his body all the way to the alabama state ca

edmund randolph won't sign it but he's always one of those guys who like to hedge his bets. he ends up supporting it when virginia is voting on it but would not actually sign it in this room because he's afraid guys at home like patrick henry will go against him because he knows patrick henry is one of those guys that doesn't think this is a good idea. the other one, george mason is looking at the idea of a bill of rights. he kind of wants to see that, so he is not crazy about parts of it. a lot of guys in the big states like the senate. there are all kinds of issues but most men put aside their doubts and sign their names. september 17, 1787. franklin looks at the chair where washington sits and looks behind washington's head, this carving of a half sun on the back of the chair and says all summer i've been trying to decide whether that is a half sun, is it supposed to be rising or setting and i could not make up my mind util now. now, at length, i have the happiness to know that is a rising and not a setting sun. and he felt good. he had been working on this since the 1750

did and shedding blood on the edmund pettus times, got arrested 40 told us to get into trouble.hing about john, and lucy knows this, he was an extraordinary human being. john also understood the fight for voting rights is an extension, obviously, of our fight for voting rights. he was front and center on the fight for marriage equality, john was on the front and center of the fight for dreamers and daca and fairness and justice for all people. this is a moment to honor the ancestors. that is the reason to vote. honor the fact we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment. [cheering and applause] all of those suffragettes shouting for women's rights. we must remember it accurately. black women could not vote until 1965. we still have work to do. reason number one, honor the ancestors. reason number two, everything is at stake. everything is at stake. we have talked about so many issues. let us talk about a woman's right to make a decision about her own body. [cheering] let us talk about renewing protections for daca. let us talk about pay equity and making sure all pe

john lewis, who shed his blood on that edmund pettus bridge for the right for us to vote -- in particularthe right of black folks to vote. john lewis, who understood that the piper people's right to vote was a civil rights fight which lifey in the course of his john lewis was also front and center in the fight for marriage equality, why john lewis was front and center in the fight for dreamers. because john lewis understood that all of these issues are connected. let's honor the ancestors. let's remember this year, we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th amendment, which gave women the right to vote. so let's honor all those suffragettes who in their right would march and shout for a woman's right to vote. and while we remember history, we must also speak truth that not until 1965 could black women vote, so we've got to deal with that, too. but let's honor the ancestors. that's a reason to vote. reason number 2 -- everything is at stake. everything is at stake. we have talked about the health -- literally the health and well-being of the american people. we have tal

was this central animating event and it reminds me john lewis and others getting attacked on the edmundtus bridge and that's providing the impetus for the voting rights act a similar kind of event. 200 lack people maimed and dead and that helps the radical republicans cast reconstruction over andrew johnson's veto and i did not feel coble bowl for the mechanics institute massacre or the roll in it however i feel vindicated. why don't you talk about that decodes you are yourself, your family, on your child you claim that whites are my tribe. is it family shame you feel? >> well, so many of the disastrous sub flocks of our national history is hidden behind a curtain and this is one of many and here's the crux of it. it is not an overstatement to say that the rampages of the ku klux klan and the mechanics institute massacre in some distant unmediated way have cleared further space for white life throughout the succeeding generations down to our own. it is not a falsehood to state that the night riding and torment that people like my corn and his gangs perpetrated gibbs ordinary white folks

the people doing them did not separate just wake up people like edmund talley working out the math newton himself writing about how interest rates were. they quantify how important things work. people who had interest were a normatively broad in their interest. but anyway, the stock market existed. there is a place originally stock brokers worked in this building called the royal exchange. and they got booted out for basically being too loud and obnoxious. and they moved more or less about wondered yard yards to this little alleyway called exchange allie which had for five copies of drink coffee shops set up in the coffee rooms and started trading there. the most important of those was jonathan's which became the center of was increasingly understood as the london stock exchange. there's nothing left of that no now. start to walk down it it is a horrible post blitz bland building in one of those little blue oval plaques it says this is where jonathan's wants. the thing about the bubble itself the key thing is how you design the deal. this is the first time in the thing to remember about t

and this guy is edmund ruffin, who is a really fascinating historical figure. he was very much a fire eater. he actually gained national fame for being an agriculturalist before the civil war. he was from virginia. from 1855 on, he devoted himself to nothing but preaching secession, sometimes known as the father of secession. he traveled all across the country, giving speeches. he writes pamphlets, always looking to provoke secession. he actually snuck in and was able to witness the hanging of john brown. and he went down to charleston to watch the secession of south carolina. and he goes out to morris island, and here he is almost 70 years old, and the palmetto guards allow him into their company. you can see he's wearing the uniform of palmetto guards. and they're going to give him the opportunity to fire the first shot after the signal went off. he's at the iron battery in morris island. he yanks the battery. this shot is the first one that's going to hit fort sumter. he fires and hits the fort. abner doubleday was in the fort, actually remembers hearing tha

it reminds me, john lewis and others getting attacked of the edmund pettus bridge, and that providing the impetus for the voting rights act, right? it's a similar kind of event, 200 black people maimed and dead and that helps the radical republicans passed reconstruction over andrew johnson's veto. and you are right, i do not feel culpable for the mechanics' institute massacre, or your ancestors role in it. however, as a matter of conscience i feel implicated. i have a feeling of shame. i want you to talk about that because you are really hard i feel like on yourself, your family, on your tribe. you claim you say whites are my tribe. is this family shame you feel? >> guest: well, so many of the disastrous subplots of our national history are hidden behind curtains, and this is one of many. here's the crux of it. it is not an overstatement to say that the rampages of the ku klux and assaults like the mechanics' institute massacre, in some distant and mediated way have cleared further space for white life throughout the succeeding generations down to our own. it is not a falsehood to st

really cool, that's where ford wagner was and edmund rough and was. that has changed a lot due to the tides, so there is nothing out there. all the earthworks have been washed away, no monuments or markers, it is only accessible -- you have multiple sites to check out, but charleston overall is a beautiful city. a lot of people associated with this initial story of what happened there during the civil war. the history goes all the way back, even before the revolutionary war. a lot of the original buildings insight still exist. it is a wonderful place to visit and to involve yourself in a lot of history. thank you very much. if you want to read more about these. about the initial value. i recommend allegiance, it's an overview the first battle. if you want to know the siege of charleston from 63 to 65, read get a foul by stephen wise. by next year, the former historian for the national park service, rick catcher, who had the privilege of working with will have an emerging civil war series book called thunder at the harbor, that should cover all of this

both modern liberism and modern conservatism, edmund burke, both smh and burke when they wrote their wds they were responding to the british east india company. so both of them said this is an evil use of power the other thing they would have said is how we allow corporations to rule us i cannot believe these people, these citizens. dyou describ how bipartisan this was but yes it began under reagan and with republins. but democrats embraced it every bit as much. >> as radical as what reagan did and bill cnton was even more radical . we have these antitrust laws it's at thdepartment of justice that ishen it's ghting anti-monoly, fighting monopoly and federal trade communication, the commission. they have specific types of laws, antitrust laws but we have all these other types. we have those that regulate the banks and the defense industrl se, laws and policies to regulate energy. clinton and his team went to all of these and subverted them and said the people's power, no more. are going to give pow to the corpora masters. so the reaganeople started and the clinn people actually accele

martin luther king, starting with the beating on the edmund pettus bridge with john lewis and boykin. one of the things we are pushing, we had a huge march in august, a lot of people, not like what we saw last night, calling for the john lewis voting bill to pass the senate. it's passed the house. the george floyd policing injustice act. don't we need lawes in order to make this healing become more than just something that goes with the mood of the time, but we need to really have bedrock law, at least to protect people's right to vote in the name of john lewis, what happened right there in your state in alabama with that march to montgomery? don't we need to deal with policing to give equal protection under the law? don't we need to be specific if we're serious about healing? >> well, you just rattled off a number of things and you're right, we need them all. we need voting protections, we need easy access to the ballot box. in alabama we had 300,000 people that voted early not just because of the pandemic, but because they had an opportunity to vote at their leisure and not just whe

most people who do they think about, lincoln and douglas but you can't forget thomas paine and edmund burke. i also want to mention doctor ross who was on a few minutes ago. he's a very well-educated man and i enjoyed his presentation. charlotte simmons i thought that book was fascinating. tom is an interesting guy i think that you enjoyed him. he brought up an interesting subject to kind of observe the behavior of what's going on on college campuses today and it was back in the 70s things have changed and it was interesting hearingnc the view f tom wolfe he is fascinating and a wonderful writer. >> host: what do you do in massachusetts? >> guest: i would be sure glad to answer that question. after college, i ended up getting a degree in sociology and i worked for the commonwealth of massachusetts for years and i also got involved my family has a small business and i did some retail work with them. i lectured at a college campus and the house of corrections. i've been involved in some community service andn, that's y some of this information gives me great background when i talk to ot

and we can talk to make as tourism minister edmund bartlett. mr. bartlett, welcome to the program. tourism is a hugely important industry in your country. how badly have people's livelihoods been affected by the pandemic? by the, by then it has literally devastated or tourism. our earnings have more than 65 percent for the year. so far the economy, he said has shrunken but between 11 per cent. and the jobs also been reduced from $170000.00 gone to or label $50000000.00. so it has been a tremendous impact on our economy and it has brought much of the economic activity in jamaica. and so many people's lives are affected there. and we had an hour, of course, by the so-called resilient car doors. what are they exactly, and how did they, where but there is a corridor is a geographical area between the established there isn't centers of jamaica. and the good news is that oil is said as are on the coastline and the north side of the coach. and his boat, it bias in the highway. so all the areas from the ports and told him that have some of it in the 85 percent of all the hotels and other t

done this, offered these to john lewis and purported to understand the sacrifice that he made on the edmund pettis bridge throughout his career, and yet, they have stood by and allowed this terrible casting of black votes with this imprimatur of fraudulence that is so dangerous. so we think that is part of the reason why we have to pursue this as well. it's important. it's not nothing, and it's not just about the outcome, it's about the full citizenship of black people, the right to participate in the political process and have our votes cast and counted and have our votes have the same value as the votes cast by anybody else in our society. >> that's exactly right and so well put. it's about accountability and consequences. for these tactics built on the kind of foundation that you're describing. sherrilyn ifill, president and director counsel of the naacp legal defense and educational fund, our country is lucky to have you fighting these fights. thank you for being here tonight. really appreciate it. >> thank you so much, rachel. i appreciate it. >>> we'll be right back. >>> we'll be righ

we lost this year john lewis who was beaten on the edmund pes bridge in selma, alabama, to secure our protection of the right to vote. we lost elijah cummings. i think a lot of us by the millions had in mind that we owed it to john lewis and elijah cummings, we owed it to shirley chisholm who's the first black woman to be elected to congress. i was 18. i was a youth director when she ran for president, and talked to kamala harris she -- and all of that i think drove a lot of people that were the bedrock voters that joe just talked about that brought this victory to joe biden. we went in there knowing we were voting against one of the most racist, xenophobic and most misogynist president we've seen in our lifetime. so we had a reason to vote. but because of the john lewises we had the capacity to vote. we stood in long lines in those places, but it wasn't as long as it was to get the protected in the first place. and that's why everybody's in the streets celebrating because they're celebrating not only a man and woman that won but celebrating an america that may get closer back to the

but john lewis walked across the edmund pettis bridge in 1965. a year later we got the voting rights act that. a year after that, john lewis was ousted as chair of the student nonviolent coordinating committee. we saw the same thing happening here. i spoke about against that and i feel very strongly, we can't pick up these things just because it makes a good headline. it sometimes destroys -- we need to work on what makes headway rather than what makes headlines. >> imagine chip james clyburn and the most powerful african-american in the united states government, until january 20th, we should note, when vice president-elect kamala harris takes office. it's been an honor having you on the show. thanks so much. >> thank you very much for having me. >>> president trump yet to call or concede this race to president-elect biden. my next guest knows about displaying class and humility in a concession speech to a divided nation. joining me now, is republican senator mitt romney of utah. senator romney, thank you so much for joining us. it's much appreci

and we can talk an attitude to make us tourism minister edmund bartlett. mr. bartlett, welcome to the program. tourism is a hugely important industry in your country. how badly have people's livelihoods been affected by the pandemic? by the, by then, it has literally devastated your tourism. our innings have more than 65 percent for the year. so far. the economy, he said has shrunk and read between 11 and the jobs of also been reduced from 170-0012 or level 50000. so it has been a tremendous impact on her part of me. and it has brought much of the economic activity in jamaica. and so many people's lives are affected there. now we have general poor as a by these so-called resilient car doors. what are they exactly, and how do they work? but there isn't part or is a geographical area between the established there isn't said as of jamaica. and the good news is that oil is said as are on the coastline and the north side of the coach and his boat. it bias in the highway. so all the areas from the great ports and told you that have some of it in the 85 percent award

but john lewis walked across the edmund pettis bridge in 1965. a year ago later we got the voting rights act that. six months later, and it was not a year after that john lewis was ousted as a chair of the student nonviolent coordinating committee. so we saw the same thing happening here. i spoke about against that and i feel very strongly, we can't pick up these things just because it makes a good headline. it sometimes destroys -- we need to work on what makes headway rather than what makes headlines. >> majority whip james clyburn and the most african-american in the united states government until january 20th when kamala harris vice president president-elect takes office. it's been an honor having you on the show. thanks so much. >> thank you very much for having me. >>> president trump yet to call or concede this race to president-elect biden. my next guest knows about displaying class and humility in a concession speech to a divided nation. joining me now, is republican senator mitt romney of utah. senator romney, thank you so much for join

. >> the presenter is edmund lee. >> good morning. good morning, members of the committee and congratulations to the new chair and vice chair. i'm a project manager for the department of public works and i will be presenting a bit on our 2011 repaving street safety bond. this should be familiar to most of the committee. the first slide we have is an overview of the original budget approved from the 2011 ballot. we have $248 million general obligation bond that was distributed amongst six different programs within our department. we have the street repaving and reconstruction, streetscape, bicycle pedestrian safety, material fact signal and street improvements, sidewalk accessibility improvements, curb ramps, and improvements with sidewalk repairs, and also our street structures. on the right we have a couple pictures from some of our more recently completed streetscape project projects. next slide we have an executive summary. one thing to mention is the majority of the scope that was within our bond has already reached substantial co

edmund burke was one of the key figures in conservatism in the 18th century from england.e was born in ireland. politicalink tribalism that we have today is explained primarily by the parties. what the parties have become as an outgrowth of this tribalism driven by other things. if you consider the history of the united states and its falls -- flaws and glories, the united states has been by large a force for good in the world with some problematic times. malevolent of our failures. if you believe the has been the, it's a country that is product of political parties. if you are a democrat or republican, they have impressed some impressive people. democrats can go to john kennedy and frankland roosevelt. -- franklin roosevelt. ronald reagan among republicans. the political parties can function. our friend jonathan rauch made an interesting critique, the gatekeepers of the party, ones that used to control the party cap people like bernie sanders and donald trump from gaining power. have grown. the primary system has opened up. with trump it turned out to be a wild west show.

we can get reaction to that plan now from edmund king, the president of the aa foundation. you say this 2030 target is incredibly ambitious, is it achievable? yes, it is ambitious, pretty radical, and it is new cars and vans. i think the vans is more ofa and vans. i think the vans is more of a challenge than cars ever stop with cars, we are already seeing some really good electric vehicles on the market. with vans, the adaptation to electrics being a lot slower. but i think the government has put forward a package here, if they gave that date in 2030, ten yea rs they gave that date in 2030, ten years earlier than we first thought, they were first talking about 20110, but alongside that date, they have committed to more investment in charging infrastructure, more research and development investment around batteries and, indeed, incentives for drivers who are buying evs. so i think as a package, it actually works. and do you think the other side of that, if we look at, you just mentioned about the drivers' point of view, if we look at the manufacturing point of view, is there

professorjohn edmunds is from the london school of hygiene & tropical medicine and a member of sage. group of scientists advising the government. hello, good afternoon. you will be aware that there is quite a political row at there is quite a political row at the moment as to whether the tiers are right, whether they are too wide ranging, the ones that come to england next week. as a scientist, do you feel that there was any alternative than to do what has been announced 7 alternative than to do what has been announced? we have to have restrictions in place, u nfortu nately. restrictions in place, unfortunately. the numbers of infections in the population is still relatively high, actually very high, about one in 85 of us in england are infected with the virus. that is a very high number. and so we do need to take quite stringent action to bring infection it down, so we do need restrictions, u nfortu nately. so we do need restrictions, unfortunately. and the fact that some of these that cover a very wide geographical areas, some of these that cover a very wide geographicalareas, cert

they've chosen waterfront property in the city of edmunds, presumably so they don't have to deal withbvious concern when someone's just knocking on your door and making these demands because it is kind of creepy and it can be kind of scary. jedediah: yeah. obviously, the fear here, someone knocks on your door and says, oh, by the e way, your home is mine, the fear is that could's escalate into violence and suddenly someone feels like they need to defend themselves. obvious question, are people turning their homes over? are people who are saying you've got the paperwork, let me just pack up, give me a few minutes? >> no, so far that's not happened. these are squatters, and what they've been successful doing in the past is they try to find new homes or homes that are el empty, so they end up breaking into homes that no one is in or is in the transition of going from a new homeowner from the old homeowner. so they've got that sort of leeway to go in before other people get in there. so far at least in the last 30 days they've made contact with, i believe, at least four homeowners, and th

it is the reason that he crossed the edmund pettus bridge and faced violence just for our right to voted we need to make sure we lift up his legacy, but we also need to make sure we further the legacy of people like latasha, people like my grandmother and mother, people like black women who are staying up late at night trying to make ends meet and trying to make sure we can pursue our dreams at the same time. i hope what happens in this nation from this point forward is that black women get a chance to pursue our dreams in the daylight. that is why we are standing in lines for four and five and six hours to make sure that our voices are heard. so everybody who's listening right now, keep going. you're doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing. and frankly we're not going to stop until we get it done. take it from me, take it from our ancestors, we are sick and tired of being sick and tired and we're not going to stop until we reach freedom. >> pursuing your dreams in the daylight, alicia garza. it is always a pressure to talk to you. your new book "the purpose of power" is out. and

most people think of the great debate with lincoln and douglas but you can't forget thomas paine and edmund burke and also i want to mention doctor ross a few minutes agoor i really wantd to talk to him i think that he is a well educated man. i thought that book was fascinating. he really brought up an interesting subject to observe the behavior of students and what's going on on collegele campuses today. it was back in the 70s and things have changed. it was interesting hearing the view of commonwealth. i think that he is very fascinating and a wonderful writer. >> host: what do you do in massachusetts? >> caller: sure, i'd be glad to answer that question. after college, i ended up getting a degree in sociology and worked for the commonwealth of massachusetts as an employment counselor for years and got involved my family has a small business and i did some retail work with them and lectured at college campuses and to clergy and different, the llhouse of correction. i've been involved in some community service, and that's why some information gives me current background when i talk to peop

most people think about lincoln and douglass, but also you can't forget thomas paine and edmund burke. and i also want to mention that dr. ross, who was on just a few minutes ago, i really wanted to talk to him. i think he's a very well-we well-educated man, and i really enjoyed his presentation of some of the thoughts that he wanted to convey to us. i also like tom wolfe and charlotte simmons. i thought that book was fascinating. tom is an interesting guy, i'm sure you'd agree with me. i think that you enjoyed having him as his guest. he went on these college campuses to kind of observe the behavior of students and whats' going on on college campuses today which, unfortunately -- [inaudible] to alliance college, and it was back in the '70s and, boy, things have changed. it was the really interesting hearing the view of tom wolfe. i think he's very fascinating and a wonderful writer. >> host: and what do you do in pittsfield, massachusetts? >> caller: what do i do here? okay, sure. i'd be glad to answer that question. after college i ended up getting a degree in sociology, and i worke

edmund burke was one of the key figures in conservatism in the 18th century from england.e was born in ireland. politicalink tribalism that we have today is explained primarily by the parties. what the parties have become as an outgrowth of this tribalism driven by other things. if you consider the history of the united states and its falls -- flaws and glories, the united states has been by large a force for good in the world with some problematic times. malevolent of our failures. if you believe the has been the, it's a country that is product of political parties. if you are a democrat or republican, they have impressed some impressive people. democrats can go to john kennedy and frankland roosevelt. -- franklin roosevelt. ronald reagan among republicans. the political parties can function. our friend jonathan rauch made an interesting critique, the gatekeepers of the party, ones that used to control the party cap people like bernie sanders and donald trump from gaining power. have grown. the primary system has opened up. with trump it turned out to be a wild west show.

it is what he walked across the edmund pettus bridge for, got on head bashed in, not just that occasionn numerous occasions. it is what we need to pass in the house to restore the voting rights act. we passed it in the house. we need to pass it in the senate and we need a president who will sign it. that's why i'm so happy about the prospects for georgia being twoe -- being able to elect georgia senators who will be partners as opposed to obstructionists of georgia's sordid past. we need two senators that will work toward this new south ideal that was expressed by georgians on november 3 in voting for the democrats. i think we are going to measure up and i believe we will win these two senate seats in georgia and thus change the nation. north, southn carolina, democratic caller. caller: hello, sir. like they are charted black votes to be discarded, so how do you feel about basically what the republican party is saying is they do not respect the black vote? guest: this has been the history of georgia. it has been the history of the south, and frankly the nation has not been exempt from i

unfortunately, edmund, washington falls in that land. instances of this in north carolina, even here on the east coast and maryland. what is this? aside from it sounding like pretty much every american's worst nightmare what are we dealing with? >> it does really sound like it is coming from a horror movie. they're an extremist squatters group. they go in and generally target homes recently sold with the intent of squatting. now obviously when they knock on someone's door and someone's answer they have the intent of conning their way in to take over the land they believe that they settled in this land prior to this government being established, thus none of the laws actually apply to them. now, the weird thing about this here at least in the seattle area is that they aren't actually breaking any laws. they are polite, forceful but polite when they are having conversations with the homeowners three trying to dupe. when they're told to leave they leave the property. and so the police are basically just keeping an eye on them. the f.b.i. is
