they have a testimony of violence in the south, of contention in the south from free people, etc.. they are trying to come up with some plan that johnson could agree with, that he could be on board with. these are the moderates, not the radicals. they put together two bills. they want to extend its life, this will continue to try to maintain sums him was of order and peace and give some relief to southerners. and, they enact the civil rights of 1866. for the first time, this defined national citizenship in american history. what does it mean to be a citizen of the united states. before the civil war, each state decided who was and he was not. most northern states that -- did not. you can decide as a state what might to give a person. is only during reconstruction that you have a national idea of citizenship. yes, federal laws regulated only whitesbut could enter this country. it was a racial law. here you have a very different view of civil rights. thes to give black people right to sue and hold properties and enter the contracts. these are important. you think of them as minor rig

operation in south vietnam.s is not an invasion of cambodia. >> nixon's conviction is that what you've got to do is cut off the supplies that the north vietnamese are funneling into the south to the viet cong, and the way to do it is to take out the ho chi minh trail, the route they're using through cambodia. >> they don't quite realize that cambodia is its own country, in fact a country that has always had tenuous relationships with vietnam. and once they destabilize cambodia, you really just have all hell breaking out. >> the cambodian operation will continue during the coming days. american units searching for north vietnamese troops and installations, but what they will find or how long they will be here, no one say for sure. >> the active, large-scale american and south vietnamese participation in the fighting in cambodia has brought a cry of anger from many college campuses. at kent state university in ohio, the protest turned into a riot with thousands of demonstrators facing national guardsmen and police

trade and investment in south africa. >> look at black people dying and suffering in south africa.sk why. drop bombs on no one. for some reason, black people have suffered at an extraordinary level all ovever e world. at this point, it is heightened in its intensity and south africa. i offer a proposal today, in no particular stick fashion, becaususe i am not doing it outf a missionary spirit, because i believe taking a stand against is as important to the healing and well-being of this country as it is to the healing and well-being of people in south africa. in 1986, congress passed his comprehensive anti-apartheid act but president ronald reagan the road the bill. then in a historic move, the house and senate overrode the veto. it was the first override of a presidential foreign policy veto in the 20th century. four years later nelson mandela was released from prison in south africa and soon traveled to the united states. dellums introduced mandela at the oakland coliseum. >> we made history. we went to make history, not to make headlines. we want nelson mandela and the people of

the continent all of a south africa have had a really. amazing education i can vote. and i can use this we can use the same bathrooms you know assists definitely the struggle for freedom is definitely paid off in my life. i mean lives in south africa's most expensive city cape town it's a magnet for tourists anyone who can afford to live here in the center of the city has made it in south africa but even here the legacy of apartheid can still be felt . so lonnie is married to nicholas even twenty four years after the end of apartheid that mixed race couples are still unusual and they often turn heads. but that's also because people recognize the lani and start singing her songs. that the whole object of my day was to people separated and also to give us some misinformation really about about other races you know it wasn't just like you say you see it is also like you're better than them. much worse than you don't don't mix you actually actively encouraged not to mix so it's only been a couple of decades and you know i mean that's going to take a long time of edmonton

many of south africa's white farmers now live in fear fear of being attacked by black people. men from neighboring farms near pretoria have joined forces to patrol the area at night it's a practice now operating on farms across the country. the farmers say the change in political tone has meant they're now increasingly becoming the target of attacks. because the police anymore region i mean vehicles. suddenly there's a noise perhaps it's an intruder this time it turns out to be nothing just the wind or a small animal. ordinary farmers are now patrolling their land with bullet proof vests and guns this neighborhood project was set up by after form an association that represents the white minority. farms in south africa are often in remote locations making them easy targets for criminals so it's not clear to what extent the attacks on farmers are politically motivated. but they're making white farmers feel increasingly on edge farmers like baird is henrico and his wife is still. they say some of their friends are black and skin color is not normally an issue for them but earlier

a lot of black south africans has not. at all underlined that the public wanted out today and he say to that it's quite astonishing that this day and age he has to stand up an ace say and i think he meant this to both the united states and south africa that people of all equal and that they have same in a deal of rights when they are all and that this does not seem to be accepted yet in south africa certainly we have that undercurrents the off racism we still have whites dominance of many industries and many professions that we have a land question that which is being fiercely debated at the moment because land reform has not be nearly fussed enough since the advent of democracy and these phony problems that seem to have no immediate solution. so by mr obama himself what is his appeal have what sort of appeal does he have amongst south africans. he is an extremely popular figure an absolute populist figure in a way that not even nelson mandela is anyone else in mandela now is seen by some and sold out didn't push the films

the south—westerly breeze continues. north and west a good deal more fresh as we start monday morning. the breeze not as strong as it was today. a blustery day. lines of showers through east anglia and the south—east. some for the south west, the midlands and yorkshire. and a scattering across scotland. a lot of sunshine between the showers on monday afternoon. winds lighter than today. temperatures back on the up, widely in the 20s. 25 degrees in the south—eastern corner. and confirmation that the wins will not be as strong, and they get lighter through the coming week, a few showers here and there but if anything, temperatures will be creeping up. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... geraint thomas crosses the finish line in paris to become the first welshman to win the tour de france. it looks like it's gone crazy back home. so i'm looking forward to getting back and celebrating with everyone, but at the same time looking forward to a bit of normality as well, watching breakfast tv in bed with coffee. five people

we applaud this evidence of determination on the part of south vietnam. our first priority will be to support their effort. we shall accelerate the reequipment of south vietnam's armed forces in order to meet the enemy's increased fire power. and this will enable them progressively to undertake a larger share of combat operations against the communist invaders. on many occasions, i have told the american people that we would send to vietnam those forces that are required to accomplish our mission there. so with that as our guide, we have previously authorized a force level of approximately 525,000. some weeks ago to help meet the enemy's new offensive, we sent to vietnam about 11,000 addition a.m. marine and airborne crew -- additional marine and airborne crews. they were deployed on a 478 hour basis. -- 48 hour basis. but other units that were needed to work with and support these infantry crews in combat could not then accompany them by air on that short notice. in order that these forces will reach maximum combat effectiveness, the joint chiefs of staf

it says we seek an independent non-communist south vietnam, one where the south vietnamese must be free and can get out as -- get outside assistance as required. that first sentence is so significant. also is the idea that in september 1963, when it is being written, the administration is problematic. it is corrupt. it is focusing more on consolidating power than fighting the communists. the other term you see often when someone talks about the war and our objective, they always throw in we are seeking a stable theyroductive government always throw in stable, a stable and productive government. they bring with them what mcnamara president johnson , before is bringing, the idea that this is definitely within the cold war. it's containment. they buy into the theory -- the domino very. >> up until that point, was this before then codified? you put emphasis on independent non-communist. was that codified? >> that is why people grasped this document, because before hand it is a little more gooey , in the language of what we trying to do. you use a good word there, codified. this is what our

many south africans say the ideal of a multicultural rainbow nation has failed. and the country was at a turning point. tide officially ended in south africa in one thousand nine hundred four but still today most of the country's black population lives in poverty though celebrating freedom here belongs to the young black middle class here the ideals that nelson mandela fought for are alive and well. looking at it. but those calling themselves the economic freedom fighters with their red shirts take a very different view they see the white minority as a problem and are calling for their land to be taken away. many of south africa's white farmers now live in fear fear of being attacked by black people. men from neighboring farms near pretoria have joined forces to patrol the area at night it's a practice now operating on farms across the country. but if. the farmers say the change in political tone has meant they're now in closing. suddenly there's a noise perhaps it's an intruder. this time it turns out to be nothing just the wind or a small animal. to find they'v

well it's been a century since south africa's anti apartheid icon nelson mandela was born a ceremony is taking place in johannesburg to honor his vision for democracy and social inclusion barack obama america's first black president is delivering the annual lecture to mark the occasion it's to his heart most high profile speech since leaving office. let's go over to the task and of course politicians of good and great past and present turned some very influential members of civil society all taking to the stage who's been speaking so far and what they've been saying. well we've heard from nelson mandela's wife aggression michelle and i listen if we can south africans have been speaking and the theme today seems to be that over leadership everyone who's spoken so far has said nelson mandela was a great leader they said when he became president his priority was focusing on his people he wanted each and every south african regardless of race to have a good life into a place within a unified country they also say that he stayed down after his first term something with some presidents pas

north to south. we need some symbols to signify north and south. how about a u.s. flag and a confederate flag? not the stars and bars, not the national flag of the confederacy, but a battle flag of some description. that tells me by 1900, this one of theings -- principles of my talk today is about tracing the pattern of this flag's history. we have to trace its entire history to understand why there are battles over the battle flag today. the meaning has evolved over time. it has not been one meaning replacing another. it is an accretion of new levels of meaning. these meetings derive from use. use leads to perception which leads to meaning. it went from being a flag of the confederate soldier to the flag of the confederacy. by the turn-of-the-century, beyond the confederacy to the flag of the white south. abouts talking earlier "gone with the wind" and the inularity of southern chic the 1930's, that included the confederate auto flag. it was becoming part of american popular culture in a special way, in a favorable way among white americans. it was assembled not j

they hear testimony of violence in the south, of contention in the south, etc. and they are trying to come up with some plan that johnson could agree with, could be on board with. these are the moderates, not the radicals. they put together two bills. the freedman's bureau bill, to extend the bureau so it can continue to try and maintain some semblance of order and peace and give some relief to southerners. also in the aftermath of war. and they enact the civil rights of 1866, which for the first time defines national citizenship in american history. what does it mean to be a citizen of united states? before the civil rights, pretty much each state decided who was a citizen and who was not. you could pretty much decide as a state what rights to give a person. it is only during reconstruction you have a national idea of citizenship. there were federal laws that regulated immigration, but only whites could enter the country. here you have a very different view of civil rights and national citizenship. it is to give black people basic rights, the right to sue, hold

it would be this massive of people in the south -- this massive upheaval in the south. on all of these counts le duan miscalculated. ande was no mass upheaval, despite the quick and initial successes, the americans in the south vietnamese counterattacked and the whole campaign ends up a disaster. ilitarily, the tet offensive is a disaster. something like 30,000 troops are killed. the whole war the u.s. loses 58,000 soldiers and marines. hanoi losesign 40,000 north vietnamese and viet congress. tens of thousands more are wounded. total military disaster. 's great surprise, psychologically, it is a huge victory over the united states. because of the way the american people will respond to the tet offensive, this dramatic military defeat the comes a critical victory for hanoi. what is interesting is le duan never thought that would happen. accident thatan americans responded the way they did. they responded that way because of certain images that i will share with you in a moment. america gets hit really hard psychologically, that is not lost on johnson. within a few weeks

to reconstruct the south. what is interesting about johnson is he is a staunch racist. this comes out during his presidency. he cannot even contemplate black people as equals. he is southern, he is white. he hates the planter class, but he hates black people even more. during reconstruction when you look at the policies of his presidential reconstruction, you can see this. at one point, he meets a delegation led by frederick douglas, who has been received politely by lincoln. johnson meets him and calls it the darkie delegation. when they leave, nowadays we have hot mike's, we catch politicians sometimes saying things that are crude and awful. sometimes they say it openly. his secretary recorded this. johnson said about the black delegation who had come to plead with him for black rights, he said, these are his exact words, and pardon my french, he was a crude guy. one of the crudest presidents. "those dammed sons of bitches thought they had me in a trap. douglas, he is just like any other he would . sooner sl

south vietnam. up to this point, communist forces have operated primarily in remote jungle, rural areas. cities have been spared the horrors of war. le duan figures that by now, the americans probably do not expect attacks on cities, so he orders an attack on every major town and city in southern vietnam. and he decides to enhance the element of surprise. he decides to order the launching of the attack for tet, which is the coming of the lunar new year for the vietnamese or the chinese, for east asians. at that time in vietnam there had been no fighting. it was not official, but there was informally a truce observed. there was no fighting around tet. tet is basically christmas, new year, easter, take all of the american holidays together and it does not come close to what tet represents for the vietnamese. people take off for weeks and they go to see their families. it is huge. so le duan figures the americans will never expect it. the south vietnamese rivals will never expect it, and when we strike

the leaders of brazil russia india china and south africa have gathered in johannesburg for the annual summit of the so-called brics nations trade and tariffs of course on top of the agenda as donald trump's continuous assault on free trade is giving the loose bloc a fresh impetus the leader of the biggest brics economy is also using the run up to the summit to further its own trade agenda on the continent. the chinese president xi jinping is traveling through africa and he's bought china's checkbook with him he has a little something for each country he visits on tuesday it was south africa's turn where she promised fifteen billion dollars in investments many companies are hoping they'll get a piece of the pie and that's boosting investor confidence. south african president so real ramaphosa has also been currying favor with investors since his swearing in in february. including china's pledge he secured thirty five billion dollars altogether. the bric summit is ramaphosa his first appearance on the international stage he's joined by the leaders of china russia india and brazil in joh

to 25 in south—east england.n across northern ireland and western scotland continues to track its way northwards overnight, leaving northern ireland, england and wales mainly dry and eastern parts of scotland. temperatures between 11 and ia celsius. not such a contrast as we saw last night between north and south. tomorrow, for much of the country, mainly dry. again, good spells of sunshine. the cloud will be increasing through the day for northern ireland and parts of scotland, rain here through the afternoon, a bit of rain first thing through the morning. the best of the sunshine the further south and east you are. temperatures getting close to 26 or 27 celsius, always cooler north and west. this high pressure will be developing, and extending further northwards to bring dry conditions. complicated on thursday by this frontal system. that will introduce more cloud, more moisture. it will increase humidity as well. it will increase humidity as well. it will increase humidity as well. it will become quite misty a

and south korea. in very concrete terms, do you think there is a baseline in terms of what denuclearization would mean. >> i don't think the parties are near reaching any consensus and probably will not be able to achieve that. the only way to think about this that makes sense is for every passing month there will be something dramatic done on the question of denuclearizing north korea. if you build on steps one more dramatic each time that we can move closer and closer to a day when the peninsula will be free of nuclear weapons. a timeline is wholly unrealistic. i have heard from some north koreans that the next presidential election may be a good time to make some serious , building on some confidence building measures, steps of denuclearization, and something dramatic on the eve of the next presidential election, which is the way north korea usually conducts business. >> thank you very much. >> a lot of the discussion seems to focus on how the different players will come to the table. i'm wondering

for the south—east, though, again mid to high 20s celsius. some spells of warm sunshine. i'm kasia madera with bbc news. our top story: the thai cave boys have paid a moving tribute to the team who rescued them. they said they thought it was a miracle when the divers found them. and they honoured saman kunan, the former thai navy seal who died while taking part in the rescue. president trump has again reiterated that russia did interfere in the 2016 us election. in an interview with cbs news, mr trump was asked if he held the russian leader personally responsible. and this story is trending on bbc.com it's what happened to this stretch of canal in western england, when someone left all of the gates open at a lock. as you can see, all the water drained away. they've since been put back to normal. that's all. stay with bbc news. and the top story in the uk: sir cliff richard says that senior bbc managers have to "carry the can",

whereas to the south—east, remember the hot air wafting up from the south, 33 degrees in london, butmber the swell of cloud i showed you, the area of low pressure, on friday that will drift to the north—west of the uk. frontal systems coming from the west, some rain is moving into western scotland, the fringes of england and wales but at the same time we look late we will bring thunderstorms from the south, quite hit and miss. if you catch one of these it will really fill up the rain gauges. a lot of rain in a short space of time. perhaps enough to cause some disruption. if you have travel plans late on friday it is worth keeping tuned to the forecast. however, watch how the systems sweep to the east on saturday. and that will allow us to bring in some fresh air. we tap into the green and blue colours in the atlantic. that fresh air racing across the country. today morning. still be some sunshine around and main left behind. just the odd shower here and there. but the odd shower here and there. but the temperature is 19— 26 degrees. i think that will feel very pleasant. and a lot of

and wales, certainly in the south and south—east.oud and cool conditions. south and east of that, we tap into some very warm, hot and humid air moving from a southerly direction from the near continent. 0ne direction from the near continent. one or two places in the south—east could reach 32 or 33 degrees. that's your forecast. welcome to newsday. i'm mariko 0i in singapore. the headlines: south korea's foreign minister tells newsday she still believes north korea will denuclearise given time, but she's not yet prepared to put all herfaith in kimjong—un. trust is a tricky word. we go by action. president trump invites russia's leader to washington later this year, but tensions remain between moscow and the us. getting along with president putin, getting along with russia is a positive, not a negative. with that being said, if that doesn't work

i've come to merida, some 200 miles south west of madrid. on one of the last key players in the suspected terror network which spanned three continents. officers from the national police force's investigation unit made their move 7 arresting ataul haque after an 18—month operation. the police inspector investigating haque agreed to speak to me about the case for the first time 7 on condition of anonymity due to the nature of his work. haque had lived in south wales for a number of years 7 at the same time as his brother, siful sujan. but when sujan went to syria to join the so—called islamic state, haque ended up here with his spanish wife. neighbours i spoke to here remembered the large police operation last september 7 but very few people knew haque or his family, and they say haque hardly ever left his flat. the spanish police case against haque is that he effectively carried on his brother's terrorism network. using the new company isynctel, it's alleged haque continued to fund isis terrorists. spanish police say haque had also been foll
