this was not going to threaten john mercer or hart as lyric writing but if indicated what that audience thought about black issues at that time. one had to conclude that mrs. roosevelt approved of leech since she invited her in the first place and asked her back to render it a second time. mrs. roosevelt was deeply involved in the selection of artists and what they sang and how they performed. so, i -- this was another evidence in a certain direction. by now, i had a sense of where i was going with this. but other than the letter to dawson, i had few actual quotations from mrs. roosevelt about racial issues. then the generosity of a friend helped me more to learn about her. of her five children by theodore, edith roosevelt was closest to her second son, kermit roosevelt. he was in his teens during the presidency and she wrote him several letters a week when he was attending the groton school, a place that he did not like. the roosevelt boys did not like where their father and mother had sent them. i think the cold showers in the morning was probably one deterrent. but she wrote him as a

our correspondent in sydney, phil mercer, has been listening to the inquiry.australian state of victoria could be linked to breaches in that hotel quarantine system. now, this programme was set up for returning australian citizens and permanent residents. they are allowed to return to australia, despite the fact that this country's international borders have been closed to foreign nationals. those citizens and permanent residents face a two—week mandatory period in a hotel, in isolation. and there is lots of speculation that somehow, infected passengers have been allowed either to leave hotel quarantine or have somehow been responsible for spreading the disease into the general community. and that's why this judicial inquiry, set up by the victorian state government, is investigating the hotel quarantine system. because, as we say, it could well be responsible for this spike in cases in australia's second most populous state. the headlines on bbc news... the uk government has signed deals for 90 million doses of coronavirus vaccines being developed overseas —

the master of ceremonies was don mercer langston. douglass was order of the day. amy bishop gave the opening. but i think that ground, in the rarest of cases are monuments rendered important by speech at its unveiling. most unveiling speeches are either forgettable or repulsive. in this case, douglass gave the second greatest speech of his life, the first being the fourth of july speech. but his freed men's memorial speech was a masterpiece. in the first part, he took on lincoln directly, honestly. he said abraham lincoln was a white man's president, he was a white man and not a black person's president. that he was not our president. then came the famous line, might white fellow citizens, you are abraham lincoln's children, i and my people are his stepchildren. an incredible metaphor, stepchildren by adopting. by necessity and circumstance. in the middle of the speech comes a pause and he shifts, not to celebrating lincoln, but he says with a refrain three times, under his rule and in due time, under his rule and in due time, lincoln found the method, the way to

from sydney, phil mercer reports. covid—19 has turned australia into a fortress. helping to contain the disease, but inflicting enormous economic harm. last year, almost 9 million overseas travellers arrived in australia. the biggest group was from china. during the pandemic, that lucrative trade has dried up, leaving businesses on the brink of collapse. travel agents worry that even when the borders are reopened, tourists might still stay away. our income has been stopped since maybe february. as you can see, many people are out of a job, maybe people with income reductions. sol out of a job, maybe people with income reductions. so i don't think people have enough confidence to spend their funds on travel, on a leisure trip. many hostels that rely on international backpackers are hanging on, but onlyjust. this is the toughest it has ever been for the industry, so of course we have slashed prices, which everybody has had to do. we will survive, but it's sad that other businesses won't survive copy the new's international airport has been the gateway to australia,
