we know that l g, b, t, q activists. they have been trying for years to get what, but we saw today inside the german parliament, it talked to me about the importance of including people in this ceremony today. at 1st of all, it's dr. hi, glen, not miss heigl. i am an academic, it's incredibly important to include long marginalized groups because values are changing. and now the no longer can exclude people on basis of the color or sexual orientation. this is a history of people who were sent to the concentration camps because to the marginalized as different who, while the way in the concentration camps were treated even by the fellow prisoners as deviant as somebody who deserve to be there. and if they were extremely lucky and survived, they were barred from varying system one and this marginalization took such a long time. that today there is no longer anyone alive who could testify in the understand that is a shame. and yet i'm extremely proud and happy that yes, it has happened today. it's too late, but still it's ve

we know that l g, b, t, q activists. they have been trying for years to get what, but we saw today inside the german parliament, it talk to me about the importance of including people in this ceremony today. at 1st of all, it's dr. hi, glen, not miss cycle. i am an academic, it's incredibly important to include long marginalized groups because values are changing and know the no longer can exclude people on basis of the color or sexual orientation. this is a history of people who were sent to the concentration camps because to the marginalized as different who, while the way in the concentration camps were treated even by the fellow prisoners as deviant as somebody who deserve to be there. and if they were extremely lucky and survived, they were barred from varying system one and this marginalization took such a long time. that today there is no longer anyone alive who could testify in the understand that is a shame. and yet i'm extremely proud and happy that yes, it has happened today. it's too late, but still it's very

i am certain that the barbs of that that he get out of pocket on the t t b were behind it's a deck as you're mentioning commanders, some important leaders of the d. d b, clean this attack initially. and later we got a denial from the central leadership of the d. b that was not behind the attack. and that suggested 3 possibilities. i think one possibility that this targeting was a case of the centralized targeting and in particular faction, which it initially came, be attacked, broke from the guidance of the central leadership. another possibility is that even, even though the central leadership signed off on the attack, there's a lot of backlash from pakistan as well as perhaps from the taliban in afghanistan due to which they have disowned this attack. a 3rd possibility that this is all their drama should aid the central leadership of the d, d b, just using digital faction to conduct such mascot attacks and then ultimately dissociating themselves after seeing how, how people react to it. why would they want to disassociate themselves from this attack? you know, as i mentioned, it is

because the d t b, all were there. when the t, well, i'm in 2007 by missile was killed in don't fight in the 9 since been under now the p. p. b. consider declared illegal to the alarm that they consider the banding. you want to do today? the goal, the handle, yvonne chief, he issued an audio message again, is august 20 judicial system and then audio was released by the p p, p from the official government. so it means there still how the similarity in thinking and the, when i want valuable, what ahead in pakistan in the america started was going to palate on. so they came here and there will be of the, just like a sunday that event. nope, i just sunday live, i'm not here there and i guess so i don't think the battle and despite but it shows despite by the standard the demand a medical statement, i don't think that one valuable. take any action again the p t p. you've got a bill all association submitted in or because you had the pinkies. so in progress i did, i would say it's probably in today. you want this thing happen

we can protect ourselves by a fast understanding what caused this t b. that is staying at somebody who is infected, who has not gone for treatment, living in congested places, having a poor nutrition, and not seeking and stay with somebody who is infected and has not sought treat to me. so if we landed those things that we avoid in being in congested places, opening windows and doors, wherever we can, whenever we include the closest angles we infected to seek alley treatments. that way we can keep away from we can reduce the chances of getting infect, you know that we can keep a week. okay. evelyn can bocce, she's national coordinator, stop tv partnership. thanks for sharing your expertise with us. thank you. ah, political campaigns are already kicked into gear nigeria, the head of next month's general infrastructure elections. voter apathy has always been a concern in previous elections, especially among young people. but that now seems to be changing. many are talking about to get in the permanent voting carts, pvcs so they can help decide lee, this of

g b t q rights activist. kevin, what 0. kevin. good have you on the program are gay rights activists. one of arise in gender based an intimate partner violence within the l g b t q. community. what do you think could have led to this trend? i think what we're seeing right now, tommy, is the fact that there has been no support from, from state factors from a government that protect members of the algebra q. community. so, and we've already had actually this one politician. one actually said this a few hours ago, but algebra to q activists should be arrested, you know, those a video going round over the, over the weekend of, from one of the governors in can. yeah, you know, chris being critical of the community. so they have, i mean, the career community and the movement have, have warned, against facts attacks have been such, such, such hate speech. you know, all such insidious statements because they could lead to, they could lead to people being attacked that couldn't lead to, to more cases or people experiencing various forms of

in fact, being vaccinated against t b provides partial protection against contracting, leprosy, like other bacterial infections. it can be treated with antibiotics, a multi drug therapy of 3 different medications, cures it and individuals. but the disease remains endemic in some countries. though the disease has grown rare in europe and the middle east, around $20000.00 people, every year still contracted and both the americas most in brazil and africa. but the lion's share of new cases now occur in southeast asia, particularly in india. most of the infections that you now see globally are largely from 3 countries, brazil, indian, indonesia. what happens is that leprosy is always clustered in certain communities or certain vulnerable groups, or even certain geography groups. these are very remotely located populations in remote geographies, and so on. who have less access to treatment, et cetera. so, ah, so it's in those mean the you, that the infection continues to try while though the bacteria that cause leprosy, aren't really highly infectious. untreated people can spread it and c

and important leaders of the t d. b claimed to set attack initially . and later we got a denial from the central leadership of the t d b, that it was not behind the attack. and that suggested 3 possibilities. i think one possibility that this targeting was a case of decentralized targeting and a particular faction which, which was it initially came, be attacked, broke from the guidance of the central leadership. another possibility is that even, even though the central leadership signed off on the attack, there's a lot of backlash from pakistan as well as perhaps from the taliban in afghanistan . you to see this on the deck. a 3rd possibility that this is all a drama shit aid. the central leadership of the g d p is just using this at all faction to conduct such mass gathered your tax and then ultimately dissociating them. says, you know, after seeing how, how people react to it, that is a code of conduct some guidance that the central leadership of the t d, b has provided its commanders on the kinds of targets. dad permitted that guidance is a clear that

b t q. community ah, i'm told me or lady boy, it's good to have you with us. climate change continues to make, it's mark in africa disrupting weather patterns, and in some cases, making them more extreme. the horn of africa is facing the threat of a 5th consecutive failed rainy season, and that's brought with it frequent devastating droughts. but a solution could be much closer than many realize. it turns out that beneath the regions dry planes, there's an increasing amount of ground water enough to make droughts. a thing of the past, it's the worst drought in 40 years here in somalia. makeshift camps like this one near the town of by dora, has sprung up on mass as hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to flee bone dry conditions. many a herders whose lifeline is their animals. they totally depend on regular rainfalls . really of the we will come here above the list i think is becoming really difficult for liberal to sustain the lives them having the room turned droughts in the ho

the l g b t. community is persecuted, is condemned. there's violence against the community, there's draconian, horrible laws you know, criminalizing almost a tragedy. and so it's important that the pope makes the statement, and that other public figures, politicians, other faith leaders, bishops, and cardinals follow, follow his teaching. and it's simple, it's important because he wants the church in africa to thrive. but at the same time, this is a dilemma, isn't it? you've got growing congregations that have hot politicians in them that support putting game in lesbians, transgender people in prison, or maybe even putting them to death for being homosexuals. he knows that he's got to that's got to be stopped in order for the church to maintain its legitimacy. i would go even further. you're absolutely right, but i would go even further. there's even church leaders that support at the passing of laws that criminalize in some way that the l g b t. community that definitely has to stock. and the silence of that higher key sometimes leads

six to eight inches of rain looks more likely for the ls arnot t. b chce oftobegin the day tomorrow. 20 to 30 mile-an-hour gusts. 40 mile-an-hour gusts along the coast. and then most intense winds are going to ramp up as that most intense rain band move ins. early afternoon, forecast model data indicating some 60 plus mile an hour gusts. 30 to 40. 40 to 50 mile-an-hour gusts possible to do plenty of wind damage. it is going to be blustery out there through early thursday morning. on our atmospheric river scale, you can see we are not done. the one we had over the weekend was a moderate to strong atmospheric river. this one is stronger but not as long-lived. another one is going to head our way this weekend with another moderate to strong atmospheric river in store as we head into early next week. right now, well, we are still waiting for everything to arrive. temperatures in the 40s and the 50s . we will track down to the 40s area wide. in the break in the action, temperatures will warm up in the mid to upper 50s and low 6 0z. that is not going to be

but the mean group d, t b has distance itself from the attack, but d t p has been attacking akani, security officials are in federal, dedicated incidents. and they have claimed responsibility of these attacks. believe that the fear that us last year, more than 100 police officials were killed arm, but it's not only t t p that's operating in the region. last year there was a suicide bombing in a mosque claimed, and the, and an affiliate of the for called a slam. instead, cook came responsibility for that, a dog in that, and i got out 60 people were killed. 4 different groups are operating in the region, but ttp boys is the most threat to the state when it comes to terrorism. when we talk about that threat more broadly speaking, um, why has the government been unable to deal with the insurgency? the government did carry out multiple military operations against insurgents, especially after 2014. when in a school a been a school was attacked by d t p. and more than $120.00 children were killed at that time. there was a consensus among the government and multiple milton. my military operations w

but the mean group d, t b has a distance itself from the attack, but d t p has been attacking back if any states specially security officials in the border region of pakistan and afghanistan. i think last 2 years and their attacks on security officials has significantly increased beliefs that affects sure that more than 100 police officials were killed just last year instead of related incidence. but they're also other groups such as the so called islam extend an affiliate of the islamic state. claim responsibility offer attack in a mosque in the theme city of fish our last year in which more than 60 people were killed. so there are many don't like different drops operating in the region, but ttp is one of the most like the strongest enemy that barcus and state is fair thing when it comes to desert of them, right? a white house, the government been unable to crush this insurgency. ah, that have been military at that they have been military operations to trust insurgency, especially after 2014. when a school was attacked by d. d. p in which more than 120 children were killed. and after

g b t q activist. india's top cord, only decriminalized homosexuality in 2018. that's quite recent. but why hasn't it come to gay marriage in your opinion? well, i think there is of progress that always happens or, you know, abuse started in 2018, but something as minimal as decriminalize ation of homosexuality. that in itself seemed like a big step. so it takes time for society and law to catch up. i think that's probably why india sounds like a land of contradictions such a colorful country. and yet speaking openly about homosexuality is to pu for many, isn't it? it is. i think her back was part of the problem of i would hold palmer sexuality, it was just under ground. but as a country we're very traditional. i think gotten even about sex is something that takes people a lot of garage to do. so it's not surprising that they're reluctant to speak about homosexuality, but it's part of the maturation process, i think for our, for our country. and we are on the spot. i hope. can you tell us a bit about your path about your experience? well i identify as a, as a gay man. i started brea
