Thousand. D. H. L. Welcomes a global story thousand today were off to the rain forests of paris where the trade and local wildlife is pushing some species to the brink of extinction. In the democratic republic of congo a swiss director has provided a platform for people to talk about their suffering. But first we head to the United States where the far right is also becoming increasingly vocal which is deeply affecting many communities. There are more than three hundred twenty six Million People living in the usa and the far right violence is on the rise that was clear even before the horrors of charlottesville according to recent f. B. I. Statistic. Seven thousand six hundred fifteen people were the victims of hate crimes in two thousand and sixteen thats four hundred more than the Previous Year and those are only official figures. People are often victimized because of their skin color Sexual Orientation or religious affiliation this kind of prejudice is something a Muslim Community close to hang calk in the state of new york is more than familiar with. Punk rock is a small town in the state of new york its surrounded by a deal it country side fall month or its on the Delaware River a favorite hold a fishing enthuse yes. And this summer a rallying point for the new far right movement. This video is from the socalled proud boys organization. The convoy is headed for the small Muslim Community of. Not far from hancock this is a problem yeah the fact that there are places in the United States that are nobodys home where yeah thats why there was that was just like they did in europe you know go zones and then they take over and then it becomes a problem that. Theyre talking about the muslims of america the organization the founded the home that just twenty kilometers northwest of hancock. The proud boys believe the people here are a threat to america. Whole basilica tended the rally we met him in new york city in the editing suite way puts together the proud boys videos the reason why were singling out. Muslims in american is in burgas because theyre connected with. They seem to be law abiding citizens theyre not outwardly doing anything illegal but when you are a Front Organization for Something Else you dont necessarily youre not murdering people on the streets every day. Nancy fertile feels enraged by activists like paul bazil she says theyre upsetting the peace and hancock Everybody Knows everybody its like a family really. Moved here twenty years ago and works in local tourism. But since ferrite media link hancock to islam which they allege is a terrorist Training Camp shes received some unpleasant feedback like this we were going to come for vacation but now im not going to bring my kids to a terrorist community why are you supporting. This long but it was founded in the one nine hundred eighty s. By predominately africanamerican muslims its one of twenty two communities run by muslims of america follow the teachings of pakistani sufi cleric mubarak. Its members have turned their backs on the crime poverty and racism of American Cities to raise their children in a more stable and religious environment. Tahira clark has lived in islam burke since she was twelve. She studied law at the university of albany and hes now the communitys legal counsel. Fear no. Concern yes because the attention that they bring to our community and the statements the false accusations that they level against our community can incite others to violence i mean. Just a neighborhood get together in hancock organized by nancy and to here or on behalf of the local religious community. Its a little slow yet because people are still getting there this perceptions that theyre sequestered and locked in gated in armed guards at the gates and nobody is allowed in or out its completely false theyre just like you and me theyre just theyre just normal people trying to live their lies the educate their kids keep them away from harm. To the far right its a completely different picture right welcome to for the record by millions of donor dollars the clarion project produces films about the perceived threat from muslims including those in his number one the messianic cult like leader is the founder of john mott. And its american front group the muslims of america or am away as they are referred to in f. B. I. Documents jemaah is an International Terrorist organization with operations in the United States that predate nine eleven by more than twenty years that is completely false. Major james bonds from the new York State Police works in antiterrorism and is in close contact with the f. B. I. Hes frustrated by the follow up propaganda targeting the residents of. Three my interaction with them throughout the last fifteen years and my experience in Law Enforcement and the colleagues that i have throughout the state and the federal government i am very confident and i have not concerned in the least. Ok about them being portrayed theyre nothing like theyre being portrayed there has been no cause for any terrorism cases for the folks in islam burg and recent history. His words fall on deaf ears when it comes to people like paul bazil. They believe what they find on the internet. Its not that i have evidence personally of wrongdoing but ive read about accounts and things like the cloud and project and other books people whove researched this much further than i have that this is a place of interest that might arise suspicion on some far right extremists go much further. Rob a dog got a former tennessee congressional candidate actually planned an attack on the community this is an f. B. I. Recording of his voice we are not muslims shall be cruel to them and through our cruelty they shall know who we are they will not defeat us and they appear to us and every night when they close their eyes for sleep they will be tortured. Dog got was arrested in twenty fifteen and sentenced in april this year to twenty years in jail for plotting an austin attack on a mosque in islam bug. He said the sound of the explosion what caused people to get up and to run out of the building and then they would meet them with gunfire. Back in hancock and the neighborhood party. This was the day after hundreds of white nationalists marched in Charlottesville Virginia one person was killed and nine hundred injured when a car drove into a group of counterdemonstrators to hear a clock and not feel any message has never been more important than. Just think about what happened yesterday in charlottesville right that is not my america this is mine learn about their neighborhoods learn about he. He may be different from them but its the same america that nancy wants to live in to. Our unified vision of what america should be and and there is. Smart phones tablets and p. C. s all contain rare metals metals like lithium coltan and cobalt devices simply wouldnt work without them in just a single smart phone there are over thirty different kinds and they come from all over the world from the Central African republic me and afghanistan and the democratic republic of congo where in the east of the country two million miners extract the precious metals. Thirty percent of them are children under the age of fourteen its estimated that the democratic republic of congo is sitting on an incredible twenty four trillion us dollars worth of metals. Yet the average salary there is just two hundred fifty dollars a year. The country might be commodity rich but its people a desperately poor. Swiss stated direct to me or how was here in the eastern democratic republic of congo researching a project three years ago when a massacre took place in a village. And. This is more. Thirty six people were killed the youngest victim was a two month old baby. Who. Lost my children. The country has long been mired in violence the civil war which ended in two thousand and three claimed six million lives one in three women here have been raped the country has enjoyed horror upon horror all because of its vast natural wealth tin. Coltan copper without these Natural Resources there would be no Computers Mobile phones and electric cars these Mineral Deposits are at the heart of the conflict between armed forces and rebels the corrupt government grants mining licenses to international companies. But the atrocities are never ending why is there no International Court nobody cares whats happening here. Thousands of crimes have been committed here with impunity as the government looks on and the west profits from low cost Natural Resources mean or how passionately believes that theater should address real world issues to him the point of art is to galvanize people to take a stand against injustice if politicians are failing in their judis its up to artists to pick up the slack. As provide me joy for money of his life have a basically dark character but i can free myself of it by working in a sort of frenzy i channel whats on my mind into a project my mind doesnt remember thats my approach in life all artists do is. They work in order to work things out in their heads its. Just filtered through well. The congo tribe you know is minogue hours most ambitious project to date in twenty fifteen he staged a symbolic tribunals in eastern democratic republic of congo and shot a film about it three genuine cases are investigated the judge prosecutor and forty witnesses who testified from gold prospectus to government ministers all real too only the judgment isnt and its not the first time that means or how his stage to tribunals it should have but hasnt taken place he spends months badgering the various parties to get involved then he hands over the stage to them justice its a good twenty minutes to talk about their village its destruction about injustice about their business that was ruined. Of about people they knew to flee if you give people twenty minutes theyll use them indeed in just. In some a twenty seventeen meal clown returned to the country to show his film. Hes meeting a village minister who testified at the tribunals he talked about an issue that affects everyone here. A few years ago africas biggest gold deposit was discovered here a multinational Gold Mining Company relocated the entire village from the first whole valley to a site high up in mountainous territory without asking the inhabitants without compensating them a perfectly Legal Practice in the democratic republic of congo. And you know whats life like in the village you know you work its more there are no streets no Drinking Water but its hard to get. The audiences electrified for decades people have been seeking justice and had all but given up hope now theyre seeing someone on the screen whos giving a voice to their suffering it doesnt matter that its just a film its message is that justice can be done. A revolutionary message. But it generally could do so as it would be needed i would like to see the culture of impunity tackled and the perpetrators arrested and put on trial most isnt as however colorful they are. Sensible matters because even if its the president. Of the discipline its marketed. In cities in villages the film makes everyone think from people who cant read to University Scholars it makes everyone feel they can change things motivates them to push for real tribunals thats exactly what meals. To show that what seems impossible is possible. So i want to go to the congo tribunal declares the provincial government and the Multinational Companies equally guilty. The film lays bare the connection between the suffering in the democratic republic of congo and western affluence. To me look how that recognition is a vital part of democracy. Its like were having an adolescent crisis moral and political sensibilities are being overwhelmed. So we need to educate ourselves. We must keep in mind that globalization is complicated its a dangerous system capitalism is part of tree and we need to stop it all to you if you missed the skin mines on its breaking to.
