Ramy no their encio has more. What are you seeing now . Reporter good morning. 400 to 500 antigovernment demonstrators are barricaded in the red brick building behind me. They have been in the standoff for the past few days. As you said, they are encircled by police. Looking ahead, these protesters say they dont want to leave in part because they want to keep fighting, and theyre also afraid of getting arrested. Police pushed past student barricades and into hong kongs prestigious polytechnic university. Early monday, the universitys president appealed to protesters to abandon violence. But as some students attempted to leave the campus, they were threatened by approaching law enforcement. The culmination of a days long standoff. Police armed with riot gear, teargas, and Water Cannons. Students stationed behind homemade barricades, equipped with makeshift catapults, slingshots, and petrol bombs. At one point, protesters forced a Police Vehicle to turn back after hitting it with a flurry of explosive fire. Some were even seen with bows and arrows and photos show an arrow piercing an officers leg. These protesters attacked an ambulance in an effort to free an injured woman who was also under arrest. And this protester, identified only as matthew, said, i do want to leave, but i wont because there are still a lot of people here, and it is not safe. Now, in a press conference earlier, police said that protesters targeting officers are committing murderous act. So far, about 40 people have already been arrested in the standoff that has been going on if more than 24 hours. Looking ahead, this campus, this university along with universities across the territory are set to close for tomorrow and possibly for the rest of this week. Jericka . Continues to escalate there.

Eight witnesses are expected to speak publicly from tomorrow through thursday. The witness list tomorrow includes former ukraine envoy kurt volker and three people know who heard frond the july 25th phone call that led to the impeachment inquiry. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the new developments. Good morning. Reporter we learned a lot of new information over the weekend including from two white house advisers who described their distress when the president pushed his ukrainian counterpart to investigate joe biden. All of this comes as the man who is emerging as the real linchpin in this case, Gordon Sondland, is set to testify. Democrats are predicting another good week in washington as the republicans downplay the evidence gathered so far. Shouldnt it be based on something that actually happened versus one persons opinion of a thirdhand conversation . Reporter in testimony friday, diplomatic aid david holmes told aide david homemade told lawmakers he was with Gordon Sondland when sondland called the president. Holmes says he could hear President Trump say, so hes going to do the investigation . Ambassador sondland replied that the ukrainian president would do anything you ask him to. Holmes said sondland added that mr. Trump only cares about big stuff that benefits the president like the biden investigation that mr. Giuliani was pushing. The president had no interest in the defense of the ukraine. He had one thing in mind. He wanted to shake down president zelensky. Reporter over the weekend, white house budget official mark sandy reportedly told lawmakers in private system that the president s decision to freeze aid to ukraine this summer was highly irregular and that he could never get an explanation for it. Wisconsin republican ron johnson argued it would have been better if none of this had been exposed. Funding would have been restored, and our relationship with ukraine would be better after than it is today. Reporter House Speaker nancy pelosi said theres one witness who could clear things up. The president could speak before the committee or he could do it in writing. He has every opportunity to present his case. Reporter the Intelligence Committee also released a transcript of its interview over the weekend with jennifer williams, shes a state Department Employee who was detailed to Vice President mike pences office.

Norah odonnell will anchor to reports from washington, tomorrow, wednesday, and thursday. Prince andrew is reportedly standing by his decision to do what turned out to be a widely criticized interview about his friendship with convicted sex offender jeffrey epstein. The prince sat down for a rare interview for the News Night Program at the bbc. The prince denied allegations he had sex with a 17yearold girl who says she was trafficked by epstein. He discussed his friendship with epstein who died in august in a jail in new york city. Do i regret the fact that he has quite obviously conducted himself in a manner unbecoming, yes. Reporter unbecoming. He was a sex offender. Yeah, im being polite. That he was a sex offender. But no, was i right in having him as a friend . At the time, bearing in mind this was some years before he was accused of being a sex offender, i there wasnt anything wrong then. The problem was once he had been convicted reporter you stayed with him. I stayed with him. Thats the bit that that as it were i kick myself for on a daily basis because it was not something that was becoming of a member of the royal family. We have more on the interview with Prince Andrew that aired sunday. Good morning. Thanks for being with us. My pleasure. In the headlines in the british press, this interview is being called a train wreck and a catastrophic error. Why do you think the prince agreed to do it . Well, i think to be fair that what we got from Prince Andrew was authenticity. And there were many figures that come on to the television or give interviews to the press who tend to be p. R. d to distraction, everything is very carefully worded, and there is no wiggle room with anything they say to ask anything else. This was a different kind of interview. We saw an authentic side to the duke of york. There were words that im guessing he might want to have rephrased. You heard some of them in the clip you just played. This was essentially a man who was engaging with every single question that we put to him from these nights. And my sense of why he did it was because the question surrounding his friendship and, indeed, his own conduct, sexual conduct, had intensified following the death of epstein in august. The princes p. R. Adviser reportedly quit over his decision to do this. You say Prince Andrew sought approval from the queen. Do we know whether the queen was actually on board with this . What we know is he sought approval from higher up shall we say. He didnt say to me directly that that was the queen, you but its hard to think of who else is higher up whose approval he would need. What i can tell you is we filmed the interview in the quarters of Buckingham Palace at the queens entrance, south drawing room, the marble hall where they do the investtures. If he hadnt had the approval of the palace, im imagining it would have been done in a board boardroom of a london hotel. Virgin ya roberts dufrey accused him of having sex with her when she was underage. He doesnt recall meeting her. Lets listen. I have no recollection of ever meeting this lady. You dont remember meeting her . No. Reporter she says she met you in 2001. She dined with you, she danced with you. Bought her drinks. Youre in nightclub in london. She went on to have sex with you in a house belonging to kellan maxwell. Didnt happen. Reporter she was very specific about that night. She described dancing with you, and you profusely sweating. That she went on to have theres a slight problem with with the sweating because i i have a peculiar male condition which is that i dont sweat i didnt sweat at the time. And that was yes, i didnt sweat at the time because i had suffered what i would describe as an overdose of adrenaline in the war when was shot at. And i simply it was almost impossible for me to sweat. Emily, how is that explanation being received . Well, with a certain amount of interest. There was no short of detail in the princes answers. I think thats what comes forward. We were hearing things for the very first time. I dont know of that medical condition. I dont have a medical background. I havent researched into it. But certainly from Prince Andrews perspective, he was telling us things that he hoped would make sense of what wed seen, of what wed heard, of the allegations. A lawyer for epsteins victims is calling for the prince to answer questions under oath in the u. S. Do you think its likely that he could get drawn into a criminal investigation . I did put to him, i asked him if hed be willing to answer questions under oath. And he said hed be willing to do whatever anyone else should do. He would take i think his words were very serious legal advice on it. It wasnt something hed avoid if he had on this do it. Thank you for being with us this morning. My pleasure. In this country, one of Jeffrey Epsteins accusers is providing chilling new insight into his alleged sex trafficking operation. Maria farmer says epstein sexually assaulted her more than 20 years ago. She filed a lawsuit against the epstein estate just six days ago. In her first tv interview, she alleged that epstein had extensive surveillance inside his home, including tiny pinhole cameras. He showed you cameras throughout the house . Uhhuh. Uhhuh. The main thing he did when i walked in, which i thought was interesting, he showed me where the men monitoring everything were. So if youre facing the house, theres a window on the right thats barred. Thats the thats the room, the media room is what he called it. And so there was a door that looked like an invisible door with all this limestone and everything. You push it and you go in. And i saw all the cameras. What it was was like old televisions, basically, like stacked. Monitors. Monitors inside this cabinet. And there were men sitting here. I looked on the cameras, and i say toilet, toilet, bed, bed, toilet, bed. Im like, i am never going to use the restroom here, and im never going to sleep here. You know what i mean, it was very obvious they were monitoring private moments. She believes there are tapes. The question is, who has them . Tomorrow well have much more of my interview with maria farmer including how she is continuing the fight for justice even after epsteins death in jail. Thats right here on cbs this morning. Are some prestigious diplomat jobs pay for play .

A cbs news investigation uncovers a possible payforplay scheme including President Trumps ambassador nominee to the bahamas. It raises questions about whether diplomatic posts are for sale. The impeachment inquiry has shed new light on how big political donors can receive ambassadorships. Gordon sondland donated 1 million to President Trumps inaugurati inauguration. They have appointed political posts to keep posts abroad in higher numbers than previous administrations. Jim axelrod has been investigating. Good morning. What did you learn . Emails received by cbs news showed Republican National committee asked the nominee to ambassador to bahamas, developer Doug Manchester, to donate 500, 000 as his confirmation in the state hung in the balance. When Hurricane Dorian ravaged the bahamas in september, Doug Manchester wanted to help. Ive had a home there, and i love the water and the boating and the people. Reporter so the san diego real estate developer, who prefers the nickname papa doug, loaded up his private jet with supplies and headed for the hardhit caribbean country where he hoped to soon be serving as u. S. Ambassador. You know who papa doug is. Hes your big guy in town, folks. Hes great. Reporter following the win, manchester donated 1 million to trumps inauguration fund. He was offered the bahamas post the day after mr. Trump was sworn in. As a matter of fact, he said, papa doug, i should probably be the ambassador and you should be the president. Reporter for 2 1 2 years his part stalled. The president tweeted, i would also like to thank papa Doug Manchester. Hopefully the next ambassador to bahamas. You must have loved reading that tweet . I did. Reporter it wasnt only the bahamians who sought his generosity, Ronna Mcdaniel hit up a donation . Did you feel they were putting an arm on you . No, i didnt. Thats part of politics. You give and you give and you give some more and more and more. Reporter it was no small sum. In an email obtained exclusively by cbs news, mcdaniel asked manchester, would you consider putting together 500,000 worth of contributions from your family to ensure we hit our ambitious fundraising goal . Does anybody part of you feel if you had cut the check for 500,000 that you would be the ambassador to the bahamas . No. Because, first of all, you have to get out of committee and be voted on the floor. Its a big process. Reporter a process that he quickly addressed. He wrote back to mcdaniels request and said, you know im not supposed to do any. My wife is sending a contribution for 100,000. Assuming i get voted out of the Foreign Relations committee on wednesday to the floor, we need you to have the majority leader bring it to a majority vote. Once confirmed, i, our family, will respond. You know what this looks like. Well, it looks like it to you, but my wife gave out of separate funds and she, in fact, loves donald trump. The suggestion a nominee needs to donate in order to be confirmed, is that something youve encountered over the course of your career before . I have not. Reporter former ambassador Barbara Stephenson served president s of both parties for more than three decades. We showed her the email exchange between manchester and mcdaniel. What do you make of it . Serious erosion of the concept that my country doesnt sell public office. Reporter it is a bipartisan tradition for president s to give about a third of ambassadorships to political supporters. But our investigation found they make up nearly half of mr. Trumps picks. Do you solemnly swear Reporter City sitting ambassador to the uk, woody johnson, and ambassador to france, jamie mccourt, have given hundreds of thousands to the president s 2020 reelection fund. Robin bernstein who serves in the dominican republic, alana marks in south africa i started a collection reporter both members of mr. Trumps Maralago Club where it costs 200,000 just to join. I really thank you for considering my nomination. We had concerns of just about judgment, about demeanor. Reporter bob corker was the chair of the senate Foreign Relations committee. And before he retired in january, held up manchesters nomination. We told him about mcdaniels half Million Dollar fundraising pitch. The timing of that request obviously was not appropriate. Reporter even worse, he says, was manchesters response. His big mistake was copying staffers of two senators who controlled his nomination. Kentuckys rand paul and idahos jim risch, the chairman of the committee, and alerting them of his willingness to donate more after his confirmation. I can only tell you that if i had received an email like it, there would have been a fivebell alarm that had that went off. Reporter that is exactly what happened. Senator risch notified the white house, which then asked manchester to withdraw. He officially pulled out last month citing personal reasons. I love our president. I love our country. Reporter how painful was it to have to withdraw . Hey, listen, politics is politics. Reporter Ronna Mcdaniel declined our interview request, but in a statement the rnc told us the chairwoman did not suggest to mr. Manchester in any way that it would more quickly advance his confirmation if members of his family made a political contribution. The rnc says mr. Manchesters decision to link future contributions to an official action was totally inappropriate. They said they have cut ties with him and returned the money his family donated earlier this year. You wonder if the mistake was putting it in an email or if it was an actual violation of policy and what people think as you point out, theres a history of, you know, particular benefactors getting ambassadorships. Democrats, republicans. Its usually been about 35 . Now its closer to half. It doesnt sound like draining the swamp when you hear that particular side say they want it to be different than it has been. Sounds like more of the same. Filling up. Thank you.

Supporters of rodney reed are hoping the texas death row inmate will avoid execution for good. Reed was granted a stay of execution on friday. He was scheduled to die this wednesday. Reed has been in prison for more than 20 years after being convicted of the 1996 rape and murder of stacey stites. His mother, sandra, spoke to our austin affiliate keyetv by phone shortly after learning her son would not be put to death. Take a listen. I am so happy. I am one happy, happy mother. Yesterday rallies supporting reed were held in several parts of the united states. Reeds lawyer told us new evidence will be presented during the next hearing. We need listen to people, look at the evidence, and when you look at the evidence in this case, its apparent that rodney reed did not commit the crime. All of the evidence points to somebody else. Reepsd lawyer also says reeds lawyer also says theyre expecting an appeal in the Supreme Court very soon. Clearly a lot of people were behind this. Kim kardashian, Bernie Sanders said his execution shower canceled. Oprah should be canceled. Oprah was here on the 7th and called out to the governor for another look. The Innocence Project that supports it was his legal support. 120day stay. Thats very soon. The new trial will be interesting, the evidence presented in the case will be interesting. A lot of people are hoping this will not go through. All right. Remember that ecigarette ban . Remember i do. President trump in the oval office saying that melania was behind the push hes got a son. Hes got a son. It appears he had an abrupt change of course earlier in month. The Washington Post reported yesterday the president is not supporting the ban over fears it could hurt the economy and potentially his reelection. A trump advise said the epidemic would lead to job losses. It would have been halted the sales of candy, fruit, and mint flavors. It had been cleared by federal regulators. A white house spokesperson said the Trump Administration remains committed to protecting Childrens Health and is in the middle of an ongoing rulemaking process. Interesting. Seems like its impacted so many young people. Yeah. Then you have people that were, you know so many adults are big fans. There was a campaign called i vape, i vote, which may have sent the chill up the spine of the trump campaign. A lot of people did. They were a lot of protesters. His advisers told him he was facing a tough reelection uphill battle in the states where people say they vape and they vote. This is a pattern in the trump white house.

Trulicity is for people with type 2 diabetes. Its not insulin. I take it once a week. It starts acting in my body from the first dose. Trulicity isnt for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Dont take trulicity if youre allergic to it, you or your family have medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. Stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have an allergic reaction, a lump or swelling in your neck, or severe stomach pain. Serious side effects may include pancreatitis. Taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. Side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, belly pain, and decreased appetite, which lead to dehydration and may worsen kidney problems. I have it within me to lower my a1c.

Welcome back to cbs this morning. Hong kong police and protesters are facing off on the campus of a local university. Antigovernment demonstrators are trying to break free after barricading themselves for several days on the campus of hong kong polytechnic university. Police are using rubber bullets, Water Cannons, and tear gas, and are threatening to use live bullets. Some protesters are setting fires, molotov iing arrows. Many tried unsuccessfully to storm the barricades. A new cbs Battleground Tracker poll has south bend, indiana, mayor Pete Buttigieg surging in key states like iowa. Hes tied with top tier candidates there. A new poll has him leading in iowa with 25 support. According to that poll, hes overtaken his three closest rivals. Ed okeeffe joins us from washington where he has been following the 2020 race. Ed, what do you make of the new numbers . Good morning. It is all about this, mayor pete spent a lot of time and money in iowa, and it is paying off. Iowans find buttigieg exciting and down to earth. 25 think hed be a risky choice. In new hampshire, senator warren is solidly leading with 31 , but buttigieg climbed nine points since the last poll. Many are spectacle of warrens medicaid for all idea than before. Many democrats are pleased with the candidates already running and not looking for other options. That isnt stopping former new york city mayor bloomberg, thinking about jumping in. Yesterday, he spoke at an ev Evangelical Church in brooklyn, where he apologized for the controversial stop and frisk policing policy. During his 12 years as mayor, the program diskproportionately targeted black people across the city. He called it a mistake. Bloomberg is days away from deciding whether to run for president.

Closing arguments are set to begin today in the case of a colorado man accused of killing his fiance. Patrick frazee is on trial for the murder of kelsey berreth. She was last seen in public thanksgiving day a year ago. Her body has still not been found. Testimony wrapped up on friday with claims that frazee also tried to have the star witness, his former lover, killed. Nikki has been following this story and is outside the courthouse in colorado. Good morning. Reporter tony, good morning. The yojury of seven women and fe men is expected to deliberate today. The defense called no witnesses, and Patrick Frazee declined to testify. Cameras were not allowed in the courtroom, but our affiliate reporter was inside for the latest twist in this trial. I think the evidence theyve presented and some of the testimony weve heard has been almost a bombshell. Reporter in this rural colorado town, kktv reporter Ashley Franco has listened to every detail in Patrick Frazees murder trial. The prosecution believes Patrick Frazee is a cold, calculated, manipulative murderer. Reporter a fellow prisoner became a surprise witness when he testified that he received 16 notes from frazee with instructions to use his prison gang connections to have several of the witnesses testifying against frazee killed, including berreths mother. People who testified against Patrick Frazee in the trial, a lot of them were on the hit list. Reporter the list also included the prosecutions star witness and frazees secret girlfriend, idaho nurse lee, who testified he beat his fiance to death with a baseball bat on thanksgiving day. After the murder, she asaid frazee called her saying she had a mess to clean up. She cleaned up the crime scene. She said she did what she did for frazee because she loved him. Reporter berreths remains have not been found, neither has a murder weapon. Frazees weapon, investigators say, was custody of the couples 2yearold daughter. With the evidence theyve presented, with the testimony, especially with the last witness on the prosecution side, i think a lot of us are thinking a day or two. Until we have a verdict . Until we have a verdict. Reporter Patrick Frazee faces life in prison if convicted. In exchange for her testimony, krystal lee agreed to plead guilty to evidence tampering. Shell be sentenced after frazees case wraps up, and she faces a maximum of three years in prison. Frazee and berreths daughter is now with berreths parents. Thats good to hear. Well see what the jury makes of this. Thank you. New research could lead to major changes in the way blocked coronary arteries are treated. Ahead, why many patients may ahead, how some of the ahead, how some of the worlds oldest trees may be hurt by Climate Change. We climbed a giant sequoia in california to find out. Youre watching cbs this morning. Oh, come on. Flo dont worry. Youre covered. dramatic music and youre saving money, because you bundled home and auto. Sarah, get in the house. Were all here for you. All all day, all night. dramatic music great job speaking calmly and clearly everyone. Thats how you put a customer at ease. Hey, did anyone else hear weird voices while they were in the corn . No. No. Me either. Whispering voice jamie. What . The beat goes onp for Heart Failure look like . It looks like emily cooking dinner for ten. The beat goes on it looks like jonathan on a date with his wife. Ladiladidi entresto is a Heart Failure medicine that helps your heart, so you can keep on doing what you love. Entresto helped people stay alive and he hospital. Heart failure can change the structure of your heart, so it may not work as well. Entresto helps improve your hearts ability to pump blood to the body. Dont take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. Dont take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if youve had angioedema with an ace or arb. The most serious side effects are angioedema, low Blood Pressure, kidney problems, or high blood potassium. The beat goes on ask your doctor about entresto for Heart Failure. Ask your doctor about entresto for Heart Failure yeah entrust your heart to entresto. The beat goes on in our morning rounds, new research that could slash the number of people getting stents or bypass surgery for coronary artery disease. The study looked at more than 5,000 people with blocked arteries but without severe symptoms, like extreme pain or heart attack. It found that regularly taking medications along with Lifestyle Changes was just as effective at preventing heart attacks and premature deaths as the more invasive procedures. Those medications include statins, Blood Pressure drugs, and aspirin therapy. Our doctor is a cardiology at north well health. Good morning. Good morning. This blows my mind, to be honest with you. Why is this research so important . This was a blockbuster trial that was just presented at the American Heart Association meeting. Hotly anticipated by ca cardiologi cardiologists. Millions of americans have chest pain usually caused by a blocked coronary artery. Many have a stress test, and itll come back positive, showishow ing low blood flow. Do we treat them with optimal medical therapy, like statins, Lifestyle Changes, medicines, or therapy and send them to the cath lab for potentially a stent procedure to open the artery or bypass surgery. We didnt know the answer. We have had data from previous years that had suggested what this trial showed, which is that when you compare the two groups, there was no difference in terms of things like heart attack or death over the course of followup between the conservative group of medical therapy and the Invasive Group. What the Invasive Group did have in terms of a benefit was less symptoms and improved quality of life. So when you talk about making patients feel better and live longer, this showed they may not live longer with a stent or bypass surgery, but they will feel better potentially. Now, this trial only followed patients out on a median of 3. 3 years. We definitely need a longer term followup to see what happens at 10 years, 15 years, 20 years. Do we have different data at that point . 1. 8 Million People are getting stents every year. Can this deskrecrease the numbe operations we see . It can make cardiologists take a step back, and patients, too, and ask the question, do i fit the criteria of the trial, and should i be getting a stent or cathization or bypass surgery . It will make us question it. There are certainly patients who still will get stents, those who are unstable, where the chest pain is worse and more severe, or theyve had a heart attack or severe disease in their arteries. For the other patient, certainly those with no symptoms, there may be no benefit. If you have mild symptoms, itll be a shared Decision Making strategy. You talk to your doctor and say, am i optimized on my medical therapy, statins, Blood Pressure medicines, lifestyle, or can i do better . Doctor, thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you, doctor. Cell phones and surveillance cameras have captured Student Resource officers and teachers using violence often against black girls. Ahead, hear from a teenager who is bringing National Attention to this disturbing issue. Youre watching cbs this morning. How do i use better than bouillon . I just add a spoonful to my marinades.

To take care of yourself. But natures bounty has innovative ways to help you maintain balance and help keep you active and wellrested. Because hey, tomorrows coming up fast. Natures bounty. Because youre better off healthy. Startling Research Shows black girls are much more likely to be punished in school than white girls. Time and time again, weve seen disturbing videos of School Resource officers and teachers using violence to punish young black girls. As part of our School Matters series, we spoke to a 13yearold who says she was dragged outside and left in the cold by her teacher in the second grade. Shes featured in a new documentary, trying to ensure this does not happen to anyone else. Extreme punishment of black girls in schools is more common than you may think. According to a 2017 study by the National Womens law center, black girls are more than five times more likely to be suspended than white girls and are six times more likely to be exp expelled. Me getting into big trouble. 13yearold Samaya Dillard and her family are not surprised by those numbers. Samayas story was in a documentary called pushout, the criminalization of black girls in schools. In your own words, what happened in the second grade . I was basically bullied or felt bullied by my teacher. She said in second grade, an argument with another student led to her teacher dragging samaya outside. She then grabbed my chair that i was sitting in and dragged me across the room to the door. Sat me outside. Outside, outside, like outside in the cold . Yes. This was the day before christmas break. Then what happened . I just decided to leave. Their story made the local news in sacramento. A second grade girl walk aed away from her school and no one you where she was for more than two hours. You were near a freeway. In the documentary, you say everything could be easier if i just jumped. Yeah. You thought about ending your life at the age of 7. Yes. I was feeling confused and helpless. Samayas parents settled a lawsuit against the school and the teacher. The School District issued a statement saying, in part, we hope that her story and the stories of others will help other districts as it continues to help us. Its stories like samayas that pushed educator and author, morris, to raise awareness through the documentary. You really begin to pick up on the stories across the country. You recognize this is a pattern of violence against black girls. What do you think is at the heart of the disparities that we see with young black girls . Black girlhood and womanhood is constructed by these ideas in our society, of them being hypersexual, of them being loud and angry. Women who lead the filmwas streamed at the metropolitan museum of art. They say my life is not a success. They say im problematic because im bold. I want people to walk away from this documentary understanding, number one, that our girls are not disposable, and to really think about how we can shift our understanding of what constitutes a bad attitude or sassiness or combativeness. Mo canady from the National Association of School Resource officers acknowledges there is a problem. Were training officers to go into the School Environment and to realize that implicit bias exists, even their own, and how to combat that. In the day, a good sro should want to have positive impact on the lives of students. Psychologist tiffany dent hopes to make the positive impact. School systems need to begin to identify Prevention Strategies and actually buy into them. Having worked in juvenile correctional facilities, she now organized inschool therapy sessions for girls outside of cleveland, ohio. We also need to show black and brown kids that we care about them being here. That the goal is not to push you out of the school system. We have to repair the relationship between schools and black communities. I fundamentally believe schools need to be locations for healing, so that they can be the locations for learning. What are you hoping people take away from this film . We are people, too. We want to be heard. Black girls are loved and sacred. Morris has interviewed more than 150 girls, educators, and justice professionals, and visited more than 30 communities throughout her career doing this research. It started off with her book, and she really talks a lot about black feminine identity and how it has been constructed in a way that, you know, youre not surprised that theyre treated differently. Black girls are treated differently. Way differently according to the numbers. Weve seen the videos and cover them on the air. You think, i wonder if there is a trend here. There is. Exposing that in her pbs documentary, shes hitting all platforms. The conversation is really important. Everything starts with a conversation. Everyone seems to be on board now, so maybe a followup to see if things change. Thank you very much. Actor Tobias Menzies is taking over the role of Prince Phillip in the third season of the crown.

Its time to bring some of the stories that are the talk of the table. We each pick a story to share. Jericka . Ill go first today. Little Plastic Army Men are officially getting some female reinforcements. Back in september the ceo of bmc toys announced they were designing plastic army women. Thats after a little girl wrote the company a letter, there you see it, saying, for army girls. She wrote, why do you not make girl army men . I love that. A friend of mine is in the army, too. Bmc toys launched a Kickstarter Campaign on thursday to raise money for the women told soldiers. In one day it more than doubled its goal of fundraising 1,400. The army women will be available for christmas next year. Next year . Wait. Wait. It was a great story until you said next year. I know. Youve got to wait. I believe the young girl was vivian lord. Shout out to her for girl army men. I love it. Writing letters matters. Ill write a letter saying can you come up with some new poses. They only have three moves. Thats true. You got to start somewhere. It is amazing its taken this long. All right. Im talking about a deer spotted in michigan. This is no regular deer. It is a one in a million threeantlered deer. Take a very close look at this. It is not photoshopped. If you zoom in, its not a branch, its got two the regular antlers and then theres a third antler coming out of the top of its head. A photo taken by a retired rep steve lindbergh. He stepped out of his front door last week, snapped a picture. He uploaded it. He uploads a picture every single day, a wildlife picture from michigan. He decided to keep the exact location of the deer a secret to protect it from hunters. I dont know, it is deer season in michigan. And the quote that the lindbergh gave to one paper was, he came back to see the deer, and the deer was in the same spot, a couple hours later, the next day the deer was nowhere to be seen. He says cryptically, hes going on to greener pastures. I dont know what that means. I dont know. Thats some impressive headgear. Hopefully shes still alive. I hope so. Anthony . I want to continue on our somewhat royal theme in this show since were talking about Prince Andrew earlier and we have the crown coming up. Were going to talk about Princess Diana here who wore an iconic dress, the late Princess Diana, at the white house in 1985. Its going up for auction just in time for the holidays. Its that Midnight Blue velvet evening gown she wore when she danced with actor john that doelt volta at the white house in 1985. The presale price estimate is 450,000. The auction takes place december 9th. Anybody who was around remembers that moment right there. Its she wore the dress three more times including in a portrait by lord snowden in 1997. She auctioned it off actually for charity in 97 and raised 100,000. I think there have been a couple of owners since. Obviously its more valuable now. Theyre estimating it will get the dance number, John Travolta said later on he was asked by nancy reagan to dance with with diana. He said, is that appropriate . She said, oh, yes, she actually requested it. Ooh. Thats how that happened. A lot of money for a dress you dont wear. Hey, olivia newtonjohns pants were they went big. Well have to fact check that one. Continuing with our royal theme, actor Tobias Menzies is no stranger to success. In the crown, he pleaded the groom at the famous red wedding. His dual roles as frank and black jack randall in outlander earned him an award. And now plays for instance phillip in the crown. Look at the resemblance. In this scene his character signs up for a documentary film. A film . Yes. Its a documentary film. Tell me, do you want to it means no, no artifice, just the real thing. Like one of those wildlife films. Oh, li like this. Yes, except this time we are the endangered species. Exactly. It will follow all of us to prove to everyone who we in here already know. Whats that . How hard we all work and what good value we represent. How much we deserve the taxpayertaxpayer taxpaye taxpayers money. Tobias menzies, good morning. Thanks for being here. Thank you so much. This is an interesting role because season three of the crown is a continuation of a story people have been watching for two prior seasons, but its a whole new cast. You are prince fill nip middle age. Thats right. Yes. An almost theatrical gesture for a wellknown tv show, highly acclaimed, to change everyone in the cast. Was it appealing to you . Say again why was it appealing to you to take it on . Peters writing is fantastic. That really is the sort of bedrock of i think the success of the show. I think its a very hes a very interesting man, phillip. Theres a lot of complexity. So it purely is a sort of acting challenge. Its rich. Theres also the sort of the technical challenge of the voice and, you know, how he moves everyone, hes been, you know, famous for you do quite a lot of studying to get into the role. As i understand it, you despite growing up in the uk were not a fan of the royals. Sorry to out you here. Yeah. Im afraid. I hope i dont get fired. Yes. My family werent, you know, that way inclined. My mom would not be a big fan of watching the queens speech on a christmas morning. Yeah, i had to learn quite a bit when i started working on the role. Did your respect for them increase as you learned more . Absolutely, yeah. I think whatever your political stripe, you cant question the dedication and service that they have given to our country. I talked to matt smith who, of course, played the younger prince harry in the first two seasons. Prince philip in the first two seasons. He grew sympathetic to the character. And then theres also this challenge of playing someone whos alive and could call you up one day. I know. Imagine him sitting and watching me doing him. I mean, your brain starts to fizz a got. I think the technical challenge is big. I do have i did come to have sympathy for that life. I think it must be challenging. Its highly ceremonial. Youre walking into a lot of rooms where people are nervous and tonguetied, and, you know, its a high quality of sort of small talk. Something i would be bad at. The actual royal family is facing a lot of media scrutiny, especially these days, as you know that Prince Andrew just spoke out. When you look at the idea of addressing that even in this new season and the medias role and how the royal family is portrayed, what are your thoughts i guess as youre watching someone from the royal family actually speak out in realtime . Yes. It about the controversial the relevance of it is striking. I mean, we have an episode in season three, episode four, which is an absolutely about the familys relationship with the media. And Prince Philip attempting to open it out and engage with the media more. Thats obviously been continuing all these years with, you know, mixed results. Its been a real challenge to that family. Obviously this most recent version of it with andrews interview which, you know, is feels like problematic at best. Problematic at best. Thats a nice, diplomatic way of putting it. There was a small controversy last season that i think points to a bigger issue. Id love your thoughts. Claire foye, the queen, was paid less than matt smith, Prince Philip. I think that was corrected by the end. Now in this season, as i understand it, youre being paid less than the queen. This is true. Yeah. The bigger issue is about pay equity in hollywood and in these sorts of roles. Do you think enough is being done is there enough transparency . Can we see the problem, wrap our arms around is in is it being fixed . The honest answer is i dont know in terms of its being fixed. Its quite hard for it to be a very open conversation. Theres obviously complexity because people bring different experiences, different audiences to a show. That is partly reflected in pay. But i feel like weve still got some way to go in terms of addressing, you know, the gender pay gap. The rule is on the crown no one makes more than the queen. No one makes more than the queen. All right. Were very excited the crown is back. Tobias menzies, thank you so much for being with us this morning. You can stream season three of fothe crown on netflix now. Coming up, we take you to the top of one of the largest trees in the world or viggy does, anyway, on our series on Climate Change taking a toll on welcome to the carnival 30 minute tour. Hey, shaq. Its a 30 second tour. No man its like. Now its 26. Welcome aboard. Ocean skyride. Mini golf. Relax relax relax you take this man to be your husband . I do. Married. No time for basketball. Pool. Carnival. Choose fun. This morning in our eye on earth series, were walking among giants. Not the mythical creatures but ancient trees. The huge sequoia groves of california draw millions of tourists a year. These forests are more than photo opportunities. Theyre longtime warriors in the battle against Climate Change. Jonathan vigliotti climbed with scientists to dizzying heights to see how the changing climate may be taking its toll. Reporter good morning, were here in the sequoia National Park perched upon one of the largest trees in the world which just so happens to be a cloudhugging laboratory for scientists studying the impacts of Climate Change. From the air, the breathtaking beauty of the sierranevada covers up an ugly statistic. The Forest Service estimates about 130 Million Trees died in the state of california during this drought. 130 million. Reporter from a lack of water . Yeah. Reporter tree ecologists have been working throughout that drought which lasted from late 2010 to earlier this year. Its not much further. Reporter they havent been studying the pine firs and cedars that died, theyve been analyzing the worldfamous monsters that survived, the giant sequoias, the largest living creatures on earth. Theyve been living and growing in the same place, some of them for thousands of years. Reporter but even these giants have an achilles heel. Yeah, their demand for water. Were measured that an individual tree uses up to 1,000 gallons of water in a single day. If the water satellite diminishes, theres going supply diminishes, theres going to be an impact. Really puts everything into perspective. Reporter doing science way out here means more than just a strenuous hike. In fact, thats just the beginning. Most of the action is happening up in the canopies. Thats where all of the leaves are. Reporter you had to go up. I had to go up. Reporter since 2015, theyve been scaling trees like this, 250feet high in order to record the droughts impact on their health and growth. On this day, they brought me along for the climb. Up we go. Up we go. Reporter how many times at your peak were you climbing up a tree . So i think my record for one day was seven climbs. Reporter seven climbs . Yeah. Reporter im already exhausted. I always love being up here. Address one reporter high above, ambrose got to work, downloading data from a science station they previously installed. The sad branches need to be cut fairly close. Reporter wendy gathered branch samples to be examined back in the lab. This is my jack and the beanstalk moment for real. Itting too a little over an it took a little over an hour, but i eventually joined the pair in the deceptive safety of the trees canopy. Quite a terrifying place to be doing some science. What has your data that youve collected so far, what has the data told you . They are really good at minimizing how much water they lose under Drought Conditions by shutting down the little tiny pores in their leaves. It allows them to absorb Carbon Dioxide from the sphere. Reporter it sounds the atmosphere. Reporter it sounds like they shut down for business. Yeah. They dont take up as much Carbon Dioxide. Reporter thats troubling for two reasons. The less Carbon Dioxide trees capture and store, the more of the heattrapping gas that stays in the atmosphere fueling global warming. Also, the trees use Carbon Dioxide as food to grow. Ambrose and baxter have also taken from the sequoias core samples, basically long, thin streps of wood from deep inside the tree they can use to determine the age and growth. You can see it goes all the way back 1900, 1300 reporter labs are still analyzing them, but some of the cores are already telling the story. These three lines very close together indicate not a lot of growth in that period of time . Exactly. Yes. Reporter because of the drought. Exactly. Reporter climate is changing, so what does that mean for a tree like the sequoia that has very specific needs in order to survive the way that itse ha for so long. Every organism has thresholds that they cant survive. As it gets hotter, snow is going to melt earlier, and theres going to be less water available for these trees. It may not be a place that they can continue to grow into the future. Reporter many of these trees have been alive since before the roman empire which means civilization literally grew up around them. Ambrose and baxter are now studying the impacts that civilization is having on these trees very existence. What a great piece. Amazing concept when you think about that. Pretty good interview location. The deceptive safety of the canopy. The fact that those trees know how to shut themselves down in order to survive. Then the people that are doing the work, the passion that they have to have to do that kind of stuff. They need up to 1,000 gallons of water a day. Wow. One tree.
