but the they're reneging on the promise that we could all live in an unified iraqi state or city and state if we had good governments that would appear on the cultural rights of every group. where they could access isis, their birth right, and to be represented fully. >> going back to the 40's, 50's, and 60's, these states were largely secular. run by strong men, maybe techno contracts. we'll look at whether it was the x factor of religion that under mind the dream of creating states in this part of the world. this is inside story. people of our time. >> talk to al jazeera only on al jazeera america >> welcome bac back to inside story. i'm ray suarez. sunni insurgents in the islamic state in iraq and the levant changed their name to simply the islamic state. they proclaim the news was called the end of sykes picot, the reference of secret agreement between france and britain who cut up the ottoman empire after world war i. derek harvey, when the dust settles, whether it's in a few months or a few years, do you think the lines that currently divide the nation-states of the middle east

city. but as i see it, the truth is , as the black problem today it was yesterday and yesteryear, is not a problem of regions or states or cities or neighborhoods. concern, andem, a a responsibility of this whole nation. [applause] moreover, and we cannot obscure this one fact, the black problem remains what it has always been -- the simple problem of being black in a white society. problem which our efforts have not yet been addressed. believe, to one whatnotlack or brown or is to be proud. [applause] is to be worthy, is to be honorable. but to be black in a white stand on levelto and equal ground. while the races may stand stand onide, whites history's mountain and blacks --nd in history's hauler hollow. and until we overcome unequal history, we cannot overcome unequal opportunity. that is not, nor will it ever be, a very easy goal for us to achieve. individuals in groups who have struggled -- and groups who have struggled along to gain advantages for themselves do not readily yield the gains of their struggles or their achievements so that others may have advantages or opportunities. but that is just the point now

i start my day from home by helping a student from sun set or richmond get to san francisco state or city college or i help someone in my neighborhood get to downtown. over the months i've become friends with a number of repeat passengers. they asked about my riding and i ask about their classes or careers. after my downtown drop off and head back to my neighbors. thanks to lift mid after my morning ride i have time to go home and work on either my writing or attempt to get my short stories published. thanks to lift i can pursue my dreams of becoming a fiction writer and not fear losing my home because i did not choose the 9:00 to 5:00 route. i'd like to let you know they have added so many layers to the people of the city. they are so kinds and caring and 3d and human and live and they have made me a better person. i wake up everyday to hang out with them and i am endlessly fortunate to call that my job. before lift i worked as a bartender and it was impossible to get a cab to take me back to the sun set. it is because i know this personally how difficult it can be to get a ride to this

i started digging after the blast and found no one from our state or city inspects propane tanks on food trucks. so i reached out to the city's new fire commissioner, derek sawyer, to find out why aren't firefighters here in philadelphia inspecting propane tanks? and what will it take to make that happen? >> i think it's important that we do take on the responsibility. >> reporter: commissioner sawyer tells me she's pushing for a task force to bring several groups into the fold. >> it's going to take some legislation. not just from the fire service, but like i said, department of transportation which is federal. license and inspection. it's going to be a collaborative effort. >> reporter: so i reached out to several city council members. how likely is it that there will be legislation to help tighten the reins on it and at least get the fire department to inspect the propane tanks as another city? >> oh, it will happen. the question is to what degree do we implement any regulatory processes? >> reporter: your opinion why this hasn't been done before? >> well, i think it's kind of rare th

is it right to say that the feds can ship children to any state or city in the nation and not tell that city or state that they're coming, where they're from, or who they are? can they do that now? >> well, the answer is they're doing it now. they're meetings with us -- we just had a meeting with homeland security and hhs and they say they don't do that, but the governor of nebraska, which we've been in constant communications, 200 unaccompanied alien children have been delivered to the state of nebraska and nobody knew it. our schools are surprised. the clinics that they're going to to get their immunizations are surprised, so obviously we're not being told the truth. >> your proposal is stop that, stop that now and we want to know who's coming, when, and how. >> just like the governor said, our bill says when an unaccompanied alien minor or even an illegal adult is sent to a particular city or state, they have to notify the governor, that they have to notify congress. we want a state-by-state breakdown, and we want to know what their court date is that they actually show up to their c

things, people who have looked at my books know that i look at all the counties in the united states or all the cities in the united states by year for as many years as that data's available and try to compare how crime rates change over time in places that change their laws relative to ones that don't. well, my concern about government funding is two-fold. one, i don't really see the need. it's not like we're building cyclotron out there. what it is, i would go frequently and have a graduate student and say, look, if you work on this with me, i could pay you but i could save some and i could make you my co-author so why don't we do this. a lot of graduate students want a chance to be able to have their name on an article that's going to be published because they want to get an academic job later on. the problem with government funding research is that politicians cannot keep politics out of who they give the money to. i'm not saying that when they go and give this money they say, and you'll get this conclusion. what happens is they know the politics of different people who apply and the people who ag

city. i'm not a religious person, i'm a spiritual entity experiencing a human experience. people visualize the state of the city or the community and it reflects on how the visitors and citizens see compassion dispensed by the people. and you are the representative of the people. i help dispense wellness to mostly veteran patients and some of them can't be here today because they suffer for such extreme cases of ptsd which includes insomnia, depression, anxiety and panic attacks. regular meds given to them by their -- the federal government or the state government rarely works or it is so strong that they can't function, and which points to its toxicity. a couple veterans tell mel the only way they get sleep is from cannabis. no matter how strong the drugs they're given other than cannabis, none of them seem to work. anyway, i hope you can see yourself to express grace in your decision about 5% compassion in our community because one out of six people living in this city are disabled and a lot more of them need and/or are using marijuana than come to these thing. anyway, thank you for listening and [inaudible]. >>
