>> well, the organization was born out of being on the south side of chicago, seeing so much violencemany young african-american males who were gunned down and victimized and also the poverty that was all around us. a lot of people don't realize but on the south side of chicago a lot of the businesses that are there are not owned by african-americans. we wanted to make sure to start to stabilize the community and thought of starting an organization that focused on of education would be a great opportunity to do that. we started project hood, the hood stands for helping others obtain destiny. that's what we're trying to do every single day, make life better for our community, those that live in our community. we believe we can make america a better place and that's our goal. gillian: i was reading that your next big project coming up in the pike this month is going to be a food drive. tell us about that. tell us how viewers at home who are interested can pitch in and help if they want, whatever you got. >> so two weeks ago we did a food drive for 5,000 families and it was so successful

but the real toll was on the civilians in north and south korea, and it's believed that probably a million on each sidenorth and south, were killed during that war. so it's one of the, i think it is still considered the war with the most costly casualty toll of any that america has fought. in other words, the portion of the total death toll. >> we are looking back at the start of the korean war in 1950, 70 years ago on c-span and c-span3's american history tv. sam is up from hillsdale, michigan. good morning. >> caller: hi. i was reading and i got so mad toward the end of it that i had to quit reading it because it seemed to me that the truman administration was just clicking its tongue and shaking its head watching mcarthur's crazy behavior over there. why didn't somebody do something about that man? >> thank you, sam. to his point, maybe a broader question, too, some of the key players involved in this conflict. charles hanley? >> yes. the key player, you are asking, i am sorry, steve, the key players? >> he mentioned general mcarthur. i was going to mention him and some of the other key figures in t

south thought we hope this is just another skirmish. it turned out to be a full scale invasion and actually, on the northern side, north cranes were told that south korea had attacked. this fiction that is still maintained by the north koreans officially and their museums and such, but it was a surprise attack and there was a failure on the south korean and american side, and intelligence failure, do not detect these movements of troops across the north of the 38th parallel in preparation for an invasion. the north koreans had very cleverly staged a so-called maneuver which was actually a hoax. it was not a practice movements but rather a full scale invasion maneuver. >> let's get to phone calls. bo is joining us from sylvester georgia. good morning and welcome to the conversation. >> thank you. i had a relative that served on, during the battle of busan which is the longest battle enable history with an opposing force. they called it a police action even though it was undeclared. the second question i have is the armistice ended the fighting on the peninsula in 1953 but there has been no formal treaty. too many of the north koreans, th

voodoo and then they said it were shipping at a church called stone street baptist church on the south side of town. and then they moved here, and established discharge. the first two churches faced the east, the third churches expanded the highway in from some other engineering purposes, they had to face the south. and i've neglected to point out to you in the cemetery, in the new cemetery, all the headstones face the west. and the all cemetery, they face the east. so, symbolically, all of they ever want to do was to get back home to africa, and he would go east. what they were in charge, or whether they had passed on, they want to get back home. so it's just interesting that is the way that is done. >> when dora wrote the script for this, she wrote the history of the church, some of the previous pastors and how the church involved from stone street baptist carriage to this location. and on the other side, what she did was, when she initially started this, these were some of the descendants of the clotilda. and what she did in the first column was put their america name, like cudjo lewis.

embassy on the south side of the river thames all the way on the other side of the river. in the evening on saturday and sunday, they're on downing street on the seat of the prime minister. it's on the other side of the headquarters and it was at that time when these crowds began to converge and remains there as the day was coming to an end, both on saturday and on sunday that we saw skirmishes, skirmishes that saw the police put on their riot deer on sunday evening, which is quite unusual in this country, and arrest about a dozen people. these scenes are being condemned by boris johnson who's accused, quote, thugs of having hijacked what was otherwise a peaceful protest. overall the government is concerned about the lack of sougsal distancing. this is a country that is about to reopen its economy. they want to desperately kick the wheels in motion in just a few days' time. they are very concerned about the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. for that reason they are appealing to people reminding them it is technically illegal to gather in large numbers. having said t

paul, the bloods on the south side, disciples on the south and on the north side, psalms 27. the lord is my light and my salvation. whom shall i fear? the lord is the strength of my life would whom shall i be afraid? when the wicked mind came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell and my heart shall not fear, the war should rise against me and this will i be confident. one thing have i desired, that will i seek after that i may dwell in the house of the lord all the days of my life to behold the beauty of the lord and to inquire in his temple, for in the time of trouble, he shall hide me in his pavilion and the secret, he shall set me up upon a rock. [applause] >> just once again on behalf of north central university, i want to welcome the floyd family to our campus. this is truly an undeserved honor for a university. i've been praying all week that this sacred space would become a table of healing for the floyd family, the city of minneapolis, and for the world that is grieving beyond these walls. in just a moment, i want to offer a brief prayer, but before i off

it will no longer accept unreasonable behavior from its neighbor brian as the latest from the south korean side of the border. of more concern in the south will be this possible plan to set up guard posts while smaller inside the demilitarized zone this strip of no man's land that separates north and south they as part of a 2018 agreement at the height of the reconciliation both sides agreed to dismantle these very confrontational symbolic border posts and bring that troops back so that will be a concern especially as this whole agreement that was agreed back in the heady days of 2018 now seems to be in tatters indian and chinese officials are blaming each other for a deadly border brolan a disputed region of the himalayas 20 indian soldiers were killed the indian army says there were also casualties in the chinese side but there's been no official confirmation from beijing. turkey has launched another military offensive against the kurdish group the p.k. k. in northern iraq troops were deployed to a region near the turkish border and jets targeting p k k positions as the 2nd offensive against
