the recovery from katrina is ongoing.nd some people feel that the aftermath of the storm caused a spike in tourism that has made the rich richer, while leaving the underprivileged - most of whom are african-american - with even fewer resources than before. but new orleanians also know what it means to thrive. because of its waterways, this place was isolated from the mainland for almost 250 years, which made it a cradle for cultural innovation. it's the birthplace of jazz, and boasts a global reputation for producing a unique sound that draws millions of people each year. here, culture and music are synonymous. this is a city that literally marches to the beat of its own drum. hey! chuck! how are you doing? hey mike! how are you doing? good, good. what is the identity of this city? the identity of this city is beautiful, colourful, chaotic. mr. perkins! you rock! hey, my man! what's up, baby? anything but bland. - poet, activist and radio host, chuck perkins is new orlean's man-about-town. after joining the marines to pay

notably time spent in post katrina new orleans as a teenager. can you tell us how those experiences informed our career path and what drew you to places that are suffering from disaster look this? >> yes, thanks for having me, i, as you mentioned, started changing after work in katrina. i grew up in maine, but gone down after the flood to just do volunteer work and when i got there i was completely-- by the scope and scale of destruction there, i'd never seen anything close to it before and i was really struck by how long it seems the recovery would take, how many people would need to be involved in that recovery, how many needs were going unmet in the city, and in the 9th ward so i ended up moving to new orleans doing all kind of recovery work in the city. and i ended up being in new orleans when the bp oil disaster happened and we ended up going down to the coast to help with that response in our recovery as well and to finding these other disasters happening around the country and starting to find a lot of the similarities between the challen

let's go live to katrina. you who's covering the story in beijing. hello there. katrina, these 2 ladies have certainly enjoyed a strong relationship in recent years. that's right, paging says this summit will only serve to enhance the already high level of trust between these 2 countries. and it's true president, she didn't ping and vitamin putin already have a very strong personal report. they've met more than 30 times in the last 7 or so years. and this relationship, the strength is built on to foundations. i think one is economic. these countries do a lot of trade with each other. there's a lot of mutual investment. china relies on russia for a lot of its energy. it's oil and it's gas. and there was a work together in terms of other projects as well. russia participates in china is built in road initiative that you are talking about working on space exploration as well. and other another aspect of this relationship, of course, is also political. this meeting is coming at a time when both countries aren't coming under increasing criticism from the

ok. katrina, you with those updates from across china. thank you. onto the news. the hong kong chief executive kerry lambs defended the raid on a pro democracy media outlets saying that police did act within the law. 7 current and former journalists from strand news were arrested on wednesday to have not been charged with sedition. gamlee tight, i am with hydrogen mer hung donna. it's not like what you said that we're targeting particular media organizations or media organizational certain stands. what we target is activities that contravene the law and the action is taken based on investigation. the decision is made by the department of justice, and then the case will be given to call to make a ruling and impartial ruling. and to that stories all the us secretary of state antony blink and has called on china and hong kong to release the staff, members of that pro democracy media. now jury in new york is on british socialite, gilly maxwell guilty on 5 counts and sex trafficking trial charges against a former associative american finance. yeah, and convicted pedoph

well let's cross to beijing, katrina hughes 20 by the katrina will move you glean from the chinese government. so this was her response. well, not a total surprise from aging. this has been discussed for some weeks now and trying to foreign ministry on monday actually addressed the possibility of the us announcing a diplomatic boy called accusing washington of political grandstanding political manipulation. and they said that this move went against the spirit of the games. chinese state media equally has released some, some articles and statements saying that this is an attempt by the us to contain china's rise. that this was reflective of a cold war mentality. and this will no doubt escalate tensions between the 2 countries which have been frosty for some years. but we did think that this was going to moderately improve. we just had a few weeks ago, a video call between president jer, bud. and she didn't paying where they addressed each other, at least it seemed on friendly terms. now we have begging, promising some some counter measures as a result of this move. although we don't have any d

katrina. hi, adrian. well, it doesn't seem to come as complete surprise. china, the foreign ministry on monday address this issue ahead of the announcement officially being announced. as we had an early report they seem to have some bellicose response. they said that this was political grandstanding on the part of the us. they accuse of, of political provocation and said that the aging would enact some the counter measures. now know what exactly on what those might be. but this is definitely going to escalate tensions between the 2 countries at a time when relation did seem to be improving. we had just a few weeks ago, a video call between president joe biden and she didn't pay, they sat down, they even addressed each other and fairly positive friendly terms. and definitely the business community that works across both countries saw this as a positive side. now that does seem that the relationship might take another frosty turn. i think we need to look at the significance of these olympics for china. now,

instead of katrina, you reporting from beijing. thank you. katrina on a look at india as well where tourism has been hit hard by the army con variance even though cases a lower than in many parts of the world. the government has imposed new restrictions on inbound travelers. just days after fully reopening its borders, poverty metal with more now from new delhi the famous hammerhead was all set for a busy season. it is a favorite among foreign tourists who were expected to throng the storied monuments of rogers pon in western india. but now these rooms and hotel lobbies are empty during peak season. plunging the struggling industry into 4 don certainty and heavy losses the port in dollars me buddhism and the business will be dependent on it will not be copied until foreign thought is gum and immortal. doesn't start to properly even today, the situation is such that the clueless rushes only felt on elkins and the hotels live. you can on the, please enjoy reopened. it borders last week for the for last time since the pandemic began i

thank you so much. katrina. while meanwhile, new zealand is also saying, it won't be attending china's winter olympics at that dramatic level, but says that decision mostly has to do with coven 19 and travel logistics. but the deputy prime minister also says there concerns about human rights still exists and have been raised with beijing. we make very regular statements around our views on human rights issues with respect to china and the prime minister's rise most directly with prisoners g. i'm way it we are already not attending diplomatic level as it were. and so it's a hypothetical from apples because now police in the gambia fight tear gas on monday to disperse supporters of a presidential candidate who's refusing to concede defeat. the electoral commission has declared incumbent adama barrow. the winner of saturday's pole was 53 percent of the vote. i'm an address has the latest now from bundle. this is the moment or position support to see blues, choir t, i guess. as they gathered at the home of acquisiti

let's cross 1000 katrina, you ms. long for us in beijing. katrina, it has been 2 years since that 1st cove and case was officially reported out of town. what would you say has changed and what is the situation now? how would you describe it? well, i guess was changes or 2 years ago, most of china, little in the world, had no idea that we were on the verge of the beginning of a pandemic. people living in the city of hon. the city where this pandemic originated were going about for the most part, the everyday lives. we did have some from the medical community nurses. this illness people reporting flu like symptoms. as you mentioned, it was reported to the w h or at the end of 2019. it's also been 2 years since a chinese doctor. dr. lee, when the young and optimal are just working at the hospital where the outbreak was 1st detected, sounded alarm bells on social media saying that there is more to this outbreak. and as a result, he was silenced and punished and eventually very tragically, he died from the coroner virus hi

let's go live to katrina. you in beijing and there's been a strong response from china hasn't that's right, rob. so on tuesday afternoon, the ton of foreign ministry spokesperson, johnny jen, accuse the us of ideological bias of having sinister intentions and said that this diplomatic boycott was an act of political manipulation. now he did address concerns over alleged human rights abuses in shin john, and he said that these were fabricated. now clearly the u. s. government disagrees, it says the treatments of the week is in change, instant amounts to genocide. now china's repeatedly dismiss these claims and says that its approach to governance in that province is all about stumping out extremism. there are, however, other countries now considering the orange diplomat, a boy called including the u. k, canada and australia. and this will really look bad for china will be quite embarrassing. it was hoping that these beijing winter games would be all about representing china's progress. it's pow, west. it's grow

here. katrina was going to ask you about social media reaction. and usually i'd be referring to the like the twitter and facebook. of course in china it's a, it's a different story. what are people saying on waco? that's right, it's a wave was china's version of twitter we've seen so far, just orvin night, more than 19000000 comments about this. and although beijing itself was very hesitant to mentioned elan, moscow test by name these chinese internet uses were not. they had a lot of critical comments. they accused laska, being shameless and reckless and of his company is causing trouble in space. now this is not the 1st time that you learn must because being and hot water here in china earlier this year. there were a lot of complaints that tesla was offering very poor customer service to its chinese customers here. now they doing has not said that it will make any other action against the law. moscow has companies, apart from this complaint that it's made to the u. n. space agency, but we'll have to wait and see as to whether this these complaint

you and katrina will be hearing from the foreign ministry gayden coming us. what do we expect? how that's right. they're expected to give a briefing sometime this afternoon, paging time, and really were expecting similar comments. they have been repeating the same kind of sentiments over the past few weeks when these 1st rumors came out that the u. s . was mulling over this move. china has acute washington, a political grandstanding, political, political, manipulation of distorting the spirit of the games. and we've had chinese states media similarly expressed the same sentiment, saying that this is the us trying to contain china and reflect a cold war mentality. so this will no doubt escalate tensions just weeks after president jor biden present. she didn't think sat down to a video colon at the time the business community world to mystic that the relationship was at least stabilizing. and now this is against spiked concerns about what this might mean for the 2 countries trade between the 2 countries exchanges between the 2 countries. aging is currently mull

s. president and 3 and katrina you. she's in the chinese capital, katrina, obviously this war of words just seems to continue. that's rightness. does a ton is foreign ministry has been highly critical of this us democracy summit at a press conference today on thursday. they said that this wasn't about international corporation or even global democracy, according to beijing. this summit is about promoting us self interest and making sure that the u. s. stays on top of the world stage. now, china has many reasons to be angry. one of the foremost is that it was not one of the more than 100 countries or regions invited to attend this summit. and they took issue with that. and they were further infuriated by the invitation, extended to taiwan, which china considers a rogue chinese break away province. another participant, they are not happy with is the speaker nathan law. and now he was a former hong kong legislator, a well known activist, and he fled hong kong before the position of the national security law. last year, now

year on august 29th, exactly 16 years after katrina hit new orleans, another storm barreled towardse is intensifying as a category 4 storm. >> it was a devastating storm. fortunately hurricane ida mostly spared new orleans, but there was extensive damage south of the city. >> in most cases, it don't turn out to be as bad as they predict it. but this one was real bad. by the grace of god somebody come in to help. >> the team's been working hard. put tarps on a couple hundred houses, they've cleaned up piles and piles of debris and were preparing to start rebuilding homes. >> they're going to wash everything down and make sure there's no mold and all that stuff. what they're doing is a big plus coming around and herlping people. we are so glad and thankful. >> we're so grateful for the cnn heroes campaign. that award allowed us to help a lot more folks. so thank you. >> in nepal, one of the poorest countries in asia, when parents are sent to prison their young children sometimes end up going with them. since 2005, push pabasnet has worked to make sure no child grows up behind bars. fo

amy: katrina vanden heuvel, you talk about the democracy slipping away.is something also that the russian journalist dmitry muratov is talking about, who will receive the nobel peace prize on friday, along with a filipino journalist maria russ. you have known him for many years. he is warning people about the descent into pacifism around the world. -- fascism around the world. can you talk about his role? >> he founded his newspaper and a cafeteria 30 years ago stuck it has remained the independent voice that has survived, has done some of the most extraordinary investigations into prison conditions come into corruption. it is paper of humanism. that he survives six of his journalists that have been killed is a testament to his strength, his resilience, and his ability to navigate a system that is not ask most as some americans think, but demands a commitment to democracy. gorbachev, the on recipient of a nobel peace prize in the last century, is part supporter of the newspaper. it has trained a new generation of investigative reporters, mostly women, and

a lot of improvements were done to fema after hurricane katrina. -- '17 when we had four hurricanes come in a row, fema got overmatched again. all of that is a result of climate change, those four hurricanes. and we saw this year in hurricane ida, while the response was very targeted, they were still dealing with hurricane laura which hit a year earlier where people had not gotten the resolve from the damages to their homes. they are overwhelmed and they're going to have to add the capacity to fema to deal with recovery. because right now, as you talk to a lot of citizens, recovery is a living hell dealing with fema and insurance companies. we have to find a better way to do that under the "build back better" plan or that concept that president biden speaks of. but fema is slow to respond to those changes. then the congress got to dictate those changes. there are 12 committees in congress that tell fema what to do. that unto itself is complicated. we need to streamline and uber-ize this and get this moving. because we're still using too many last-c

the flood protection system stayed dry after investments after katrina. we have to do better going forward to make sure these communities are weatherproofed for the future. having lived through storms, i have seen recoveries that work on recoveries that don't. the biggest factor is how fast we get money back into pockets and start people getting back to some semblance of normalcy. we need a federal recovery process that recognizes this. far too many of our programs take months to kick in. you instituted several policies and granted waivers for people that mischecked the box and as a result, many people were denied. what can we do to create an appeal process, so a person who made an innocent mistake in the filing are not rejected? ms. criswell: the program you're talking about is our critical needs assistance program, an amazing tool that gets money into the hands of survivors quickly. we were able to get money into the hands of survivors faster than we have in any other disaster. we did hear that some individuals were having difficulties with how they ans

about a 3rd of all short listed sites are in china, but as katrina ye reports are from beijing. the country hasn't always had the best reputation in the industry. there are millions of office buildings in china. but the liter skyscraper in southwest b. jang is unlike any other straddling a major subway station. 2 structures are connected by a soaring atrium that twists towards the sky. here we were faced with her and as you were, to build an office tower, 200 meters tall. with the subway tunnel underneath. how do we create something very elegant? that really will be part of the city. we create her, we call an urban window. so the atrium that's created because of straddling the, the tunnel creates a tower that's creates the tallest atrium in the world. straight lines are hard to find here, but the unseen is equally impressive. integrated smite systems, manage the buildings, temperature and air quality. energy use is minimized. every office is connected with 5 g. these are just some of the reasons it was highly commended at the prestigious world architecture festival taking place

the exchange of business people and industry leaders are now worried that those would be at risk. katrina, you al jazeera aging. jewel vocal is a professor at pacific university in oregon and the author on the lympics. he says the us diplomatic boycott is not a surprise. the olympics have been political since they were founded in the 890 s by a plucky french aristocrat named baron peer to cooper time. and they have remained political ever since, after all, in 1936, hitler hosted the olympics in berlin to great political fact for him and his regime every single olympic as political elements to it. and so when somebody tells you that the olympics are not political, typically they tend to be milking the olympic couch with both hands, meaning they make their living off of the olympic games. and in fact, since the united states has making a diplomatic boycott of the beijing olympics just further proof. in fact, you might think that this could be the death knell of that fable that the olympics are not political. they are definitely political through and through at least 38 people have been kill

officials will not attend the event because of what they call human rights atrocities and genocide. katrina, you reports from beijing off to your don don. yeah, china is winter olympic uniforms already. and thousands for that. staff have been hired, but there will be few guests attending with the games opens and dating in february, the united states has announced a diplomatic boycott, fight and concerns about china's human rights record. only american athletes and not officials will be present. beijing says to move is an act of political manipulation may want over the u. s. approach to seriously violate the principle or political neutrality of sports. established by the olympic tractor, runs counter to the limping motto of more. unity understands on opposite side of the vast number of athletes, london, and sports in few, the asked all over the world, you know, then washington says china's treatment of muslim, weakest sion, janet amounts to genocide, rights groups say, forced labor and sterilization, are rife, accusations repeatedly dismissed by the chinese government, your lead up or down c

. >> i thank you so a good all of these disasters inhabited and talk about katrina and maria and harveyima talk about repetitive settings for main and i talked about my experience in north dakota the flooding and they are all kind of - but many they do have more similarities than differences i think sometimes when you the someplace in your experiences a disaster or urinary of the county has a repetitive type of hazard and again, it is about what is happening in your community, is really unique and you're the only one experiencing this i hope this book what it does is demonstrate that actually these are things that a lot of people are having these experiences we'd on the one hand that is terrible but on the other hand, the means that there are bigger policy changes we can help to shift. and then we can talk about national policy changes to go down and affected the local level we don't need to go to making these individual policy changes, which frankly the situation wherein now, we don't necessarily have time to do that in so hopefully, this demonstrates that and just people that you are

samantha, you or your book draws heavily on you personally experience right, notably time spent in post- katrinatr a teenager can u tell us about how those experiences informed your career path and what drew you to the places that are suffering from disasters like this. >> yeah so think you for having me and as i mentioned a month i did work in post- christina and i grew up in maine but i had gone down to see a disaster of flooding and did just volunteer work when i got there it was completely blown away by the scale of the destruction there and i had never seen anything close to it before. and i was really struck by how many people would need to be involved in the recovery and have any needs are unmet throughout the city and particularly in certain neighborhood this and so i ended up moving to new york lanes doing it all kinds of recovery work in the o city. and then i ended up being there when the disaster happened and so we went to the coast to help with response and recovery in a kind of than a path to finding a these other disasters inhabiting around the country and startinga to find a lot
