Importance of juneteenth and what that means for the u. S. As we start watching the hawks. Get the. Real deal its. Like you know that i got. To. Welcome on the watch of the hawks i am a robot and im tapped. To help us better understand the importance and what it has to offer us education is the president the National Chain type Observance Foundation state blame thank you so much for joining us today steve good evening thank you very much for having us be with you its a great pleasure to have you on your special for all the good work that you guys are the true been out there doing in trying to get you know juneteenth recognized i want to start by asking you what is the historical significance of juneteenth as the day that celebrated or the bay thats remembered of africanamerican slavery ending in the United States i think many in history classes across the country you know we kind of believe that it was always the emancipation proclamation when lincoln did that actually and of slavery but juneteenth is an important day for the celebration because it really recognized when slavery truly under correct well. Its phrase correctly juneteenth is puerto rico a combination of june and and a several days to happen during june 13th the day that most commonly recognized is the day when general Major GeneralGordon Granger was issued general order number 3 and texas in Galveston Texas and that was after they were sent there to reinforce the border shore force from the french army which was coming back from mexico at the bow deployable. And when they were forced by storm to land in galveston the soldiers there knows that slavery hadnt really taken effect the freedom nose had been issued and general granger issued an order journal number 3 theres a lot of. Things around how that exactly happened but june when he issued the order and the relevance of juneteenth is that it completes the cycle of freedom the celebrations of freedom in 776. 00 black people even though we fought in the revolutionary war where he was in a revolutionary war we were still slaves it took 88 years you lived months in about 22 days before granger issued general order number 3 and still that wasnt june 14th 1966 when the treaty was sorry with the 5 tribes to release to slaves and make them part of the nation so june to the combination of things to happen on june 10th its more than just texas it always has been its been to texas. If one of the things that we forgot is that there is this idea of a one c. Emancipation proclamation happened just the whole United States got the text and then everything was fine it was a very different world down there not just from people deciding they werent going to listen to the emancipation proclamation but quite literally information getting around well now were in this age where information is very quickly you know moved around for activism purposes you know we get information very quickly and things happen and yet here we are june teen and that seems a very important part of our American History of a very you know. Critical role its still not a National Holiday its not a major day where we take that time you know its still something that feels like its its its sort of brought up on their side 46 states do have it as a holiday. Why why do you how many sorry about observance there are about 7 actually already for 2 of them its a holiday as of today the state of pennsylvania with our regional directed their assigned to be 0. Brain and make it into a holiday from Different Service thats right why and as i said look this slow work to get it in here. You are thats great one want to say why is that important that its a national day of observance why is it important for our as a nation that we actually look at you and to you. As i stated before it closes the cycle the celebration of freedom ok. Everybody is not free. To everybody is free none are free until everybody is free and so juneteenth commemorates that time for did indeed slavery in america and start a new chapter which every day that you call it or so its there for closure we need to have in order to go forward. In america ok to bring everybody together to bring the unity together to bring peace in coordination between all the different fashions you have to address the issue of when mark time in america that in the slavery is not saying everything was fixed everything was good Going Forward but its a starting point and. I was it to say its sort of what you said its like the thing of its a process theres this idea i mean you see a huge. There is there is the time when you know america became a sort of you know we 1st landed here we have slavery then theres a huge chunk of time when you look at a timeline of what happened and you see that theres also you know the jim crow era segregation all of these things do you feel like weve made it to that point or is this a journey that were still on as americans going toward freedom what we are or the journey were still war we have to be able to let every american have liberty the 13 to 14 to 15 to minute the civil rights of them Voting Rights of all being said upon so that we can have the same course of action to everyone else but the real problem is that we dont have the liberty to exercise the freedoms that we have been legislated so thats you know the freedom to walk down the street without be. Salted by Law Enforcement is a serious encroachments upon our liberty and wanted to keep things to america was Patrick Henry give me liberty give me death that we need when we need and in celebration a juneteenth will help bring about that liberty this is because you know when you look at Something Like this i think its easy for us to kind of forget the importance of you know days you know holidays not just its not about you know where we go and celebrate but its also just remembering the meaning of the holiday and the meaning behind it and why were there and i think its easy for us because you see you know arguments going on capitol hill this week and things like that over even like reparations things like that but i think a lot of that comes because people forget their own history very quickly of this country or at least power in this country for gets its own history and wants to move on does juneteenth with that help us if wed like you say as a you know National Holiday thats observed its talked about that we celebrate every year does that help remind us of this history so that we dont repeat it so that we can move beyond that destiny as. Purpose for having a national day of observance in the in the in the legislation its called flag day and we are understand what the flag code is we understand how to treat American Flag juneteenth with that type of push behind it can help educate america about the status of black people in america the contributions that we made and hopefully bring us closer together oh how tough is that fight back for you i mean its great to hear that 46 states you know at least observe it but we still have that next level of the federal government how tough was the fight to try to get the observers the holiday state to state and do all of those what we saw abraded our 25th anniversary just friday in new orleans and it was. A fabulous man by the name of reverend ronald b. Myers senior m. D. Who led the charge here he was did an issue of their 1st apology in 1990 right he worked on legislation the 1st date was delaware Bernie Wilkins and we just finished montana up this past year to defy has been difficult at times but were not going to give up because of your portions of america to understand the relevance of juneteenth and its history is just as an important day as a force to do why. Do you feel that you know where when you talk to people every day americans you know theyre sort of split one half is this you know were past racism where past all of us you know we we dont need to keep remembering or you know this idea that we have moved past this idea of race and were opposed to racial country and you have the other half or says nothing has changed and that were still in that what is it what are the things that you know educators parents you know people can do whats the best way to observe june 10th what are the things that we should make say as educators as journalists or anybody what are the the points that we should be making and how best do we do that. Well the best way to observe the juneteenth is as we quest for people to learn about our history learn about your history in action because education is the 1st key thing and. Dave the conversations with people in america varies really upon the demographics younger people are less or concerned about more of these things but its still relevant to not we did not aware of the relevant set of plates in their day to day interactions and as you move up the scale you find more attention is paid towards it. So its very we need to address the problem in a systematic way and by observation juneteenth and developing a program that everybody can get to know and understand and recognize the contributions of africanamericans people are american descent former slaves that work here in america the better well be off as a country i think its incredible i think its on my part now one of the things we always talk about a michaud is understanding your own history even if its uncomfortable like thats not thats the stuff you should be learning if it makes you uncomfortable thats probably what you should be reading and probably what you should be paying attention to engine teams as one of those that i wish was much more mainstream and as we see it but its become so much more over the last few years so youre 5 you guys are fighting really hard and its working because its getting out there on a theyve had a record year this year we really appreciate i think in june to nation everyone got out raised their flags did Education Programs worked of all the people in your community to explain to him about the true essence of the meaning the juneteenth all the nation i really appreciate you all god bless you we appreciate the work that you and everyone else is doing thank you so much our Steve Williams president of the National Surveys and foundation thank you so much for coming out with a certain educating the audience on that important day. Thank you very much all right as we go to break watchers dont forget to let us know what you think about topics weve covered up facebook and twitter and see our poll shows at our t. V. Dot com coming up we delve into the latest on venezuela with r. T. Americas drug hobby but 1st washington d. C. Is apparently a wash with spies according to the international 5 museum a lot of this there stay tuned to watch it. Why a paradise with some around turned into a round the experimentation field but agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major here tends theres no question otherwise why would that the Chemical Company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in day you have many of these people where one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of Environmental Research going on in hawaii whether these Companies Feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. Sometimes osho as well like a honey pot and everyone believed that it was all on stable and on the reliability of russia but they thought that everyone was great over their russian businessman they want to do business in the west because they feel that some could take everything away from them in russia its now its the opposite dave business is outside of russia was snatched less has frozen the old log and now the student whine about. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy from day shouldnt let it be an arms race is also a scary Dramatic Development the only really im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful ready to kill daryn time to sit down and. Join me every socially on the elec simon show and ill be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. Here in washington d. C. There are 177 Foreign Diplomatic Missions or embassies within the city limits in greater d. C. We have over 400 International Associations about 100 academic institutions and just over 1000 Foreign Companies and every one of those foreign nationals foreign born or foreign employed people at those places could be a spy thats right according to the International Spy museum there are at any one time 10000. 00 spies in the u. S. Capitol however these arent your grandmas shaking their martinis and hiding in shadows bra and theyre going to system special agent in charge of counterintelligence for the f. B. I. s Washington Field office told w t o p news a spy is nondescript a spy is going to be someone thats going to be a student in school a visiting professor your neighbor it could be a colleague or someone that shares the soccer field with you. Are a lot of. Probably isnt this cloak and dagger some would have you believe in fact most of these guys arent the 7 of your dreams and nightmares they are hiding in your bushes or tapping your phone thats the n. S. A. Was reading made a fairly important point when spies tell you how many spies there are coming to get you that the russians and the chinese are up to steal our American Dreams from our slumbering bodies try to remember too little important one everyone spies on our allies just as much as their enemies and to those telling you theres a spy under every bed are the very people spying on you in the 1st thing that is true that is incredibly true all the spies are gonna getcha. The United States government more spying on the American People than any foreign born and embedded here working. In fact the cia and the f. B. I. Have somewhere estimated around the United States i mean one time as over a 100000 people worldwide operating as. Spies. People get a better understanding. By segment were doing today just so people get a better understanding of spying i would like to go over the most common types of spies here. Species of spies currently. Exist that could be. A researcher fellow at the Heritage Foundation and a former special Army Special Forces officer told Popular Mechanics but you speak about embassy spies in particular when these embassy spies are. Jobs the rest of their time they spend wandering around washington d. C. Trying to make contact with people who they can get to share information these are the people that work at embassies that also try to go out and get obviously just wandering about going up to people going do you have information either information was worthless you could have information. During about the survey i had no idea they were just wandering about i thought those were scoring goals that are all secret agents more rare kinds of spies on the spy spectrum are knox and o. C. Used for not official cover a list of anyone watching Mission Impossible these are spies posing as businessmen journalists students things like that then of course you have sleeper cells these are you know spies with Fake Identities like they show the americans yes like this the americans yes yes and then lastly you have you know done. Traitor the american traitor the Benedict Arnold yes the u. S. Citizen who is. Another country the rosenberg. Going back to all the famous spies of that day you know theres your model haris and then you have your rosenberg see you some people are just selling things so you know another people are trying to get it some people are putting on this whole thing and i think theres a us idea that spies are glamorous and sexy but scary like its all double a 7 is great the fact that he steals and kills for a foreign empire that doesnt stop any of those we let it go its entertaining if it looks like sean connery or Pierce Brosnan when its all right in our book yeah not very much honestly those are probably right here favorite by michael the book hero here is the thing that gets me is that you know if were really worried about the estimate of what like 10000 of them live and yeah within here if were really worried about people getting hold of like top secret documents will meet with the u. S. Shouldnt make everything top secret i mean. It was like 60 some odd 1000000 documents are considered top secret 90 may be right and ill tell you why thats fine number so high if we have so if theres all those documents and all those all those documents are considered top secret or classified. You need a lot of people to process those documents you do and thats how we end up with a huge amount of people who have top secret clearance so you have what if that was the estimated one point i mean we went from 800000 even a 1000000 people a 1000000 different Government Employees or people back to the contractors are the top secret security clearances thats incredible but the fact is there are a 1000000 contractors out there with all of this that we may or may not know and fact that every week if youre so concerned about these leaks and National Security well you keep getting things like by contractors that you hire or people that are working for you that have this clearance and maybe dont have a 1000000 people with clarence keep your secrets a little more maybe a little loopy goldberg im not saying you cant take naked pictures of yourself im just saying maybe dont put them on the cloud so part of it is this idea of not having you know as many. You know options also theres a huge we have such technology but we dont have to use it so you know hiring people and so they have access to things are going to get lead to things are going to happen i think part of the reason why this whole spy thing as become very sexy again im very big is the memory of a teen ok and to me shes always going to be the spy who was she was never you know ok she was charge of the crime of conspiring 1st of all the sounds hilarious and conspiring to infiltrate conservative us political groups without proper registration that wasnt a crime by the way she didnt steal top secret blueprints or bribe elected officials she did 2 things and heres the world the spying when you start looking at especially the women all the famous female spies that are supposed to scare us the model is all about its the. Right red sparrow theres this whole thing there are 2 things that maria bertino dead that made her easy target for freemont verse one she was pro gun and 2 she had sex with high level republican operatives thats the only reason she was important she didnt do anything she didnt sell anything so my whole thing is if youre going to throw a spy at me at least they did something other than she was. Activist at the end of the bay right right has really not understanding of the difference between 5 and ask and 4 and lobbying and all of these. Are not by. The great real life political thriller taking place and but as we will just add one more twist to its already labyrinth being plucked it appears that one weibo the United States and horse leader seeking to depose the colonel at the president of venezuela that was with him so when a sticky situation involving embezzle yes the scandal involving the misuse of aid money by his subordinates for more on this past moving stories our 2 americas john harvey. This story is certainly gaining traction and some say a black eye for one why dont know the report was published in the panam post its a publication here in miami that reports on latin and south american issues and the story alleges that 2 of one white house senior Staff Members resign over a white house chief of staff and kevin rojas the regional coordinator for why does popular will party blue upwards of 125 1000. 00 on lavish parties rental cars Shopping Trips alcohol and nightclubs and the money they allegedly embezzled according to the report was supposed to help pay for housing for the Venezuelan Army soldiers and their families defected from Nicolas Maduro his government to why dos side somewhere reportedly claimed to have spent the money on 7. 00 hotels to house over 1200. 00 defectors but only 2 hotels were paid for one of the hotels even ended up even getting 65. 00 of the defectors and their families because of more than 20000. 00 in unpaid bills the money that rojas number allegedly took came from funds that were raised during the live aid style concert back in february organized by billionaire philanthropist Richard Branson of the virgin group along the columbia border with venezuela colombia to coincide with the humanitarian aid shipments that were suppose. To flow into venezuela why dole has since fired both pereira and rojas and has called for an investigation reportedly saying quote we will investigate this deeply every center of public funds should be sacred and that is something we have to learn as a society the United States has recognized white oh as venezuelas interim president and later and supported his efforts to oust Nicolas Maduro madero has called white oh a puppet for the United States and said this about the ensuing scandal. Humanitarian aid it is more a humanitarian robbery all the money from the famous humanitarian aid fund was stolen take note to washington not only are the opposition liars but they are thieves too who stole sounds of dollars from each other despite the ongoing scandal busy the u. S.

And. Democracies do not deport human rights defenders over their peaceful expression democracies do not rule over millions of people for another people you know for decades on there is a larger context here in that context starts with the fact that israel has been occupying palestinians for 52 years and that occupation itself has deteriorated the most basic ideas of what a legitimate democratic government looks like inside of israel. We came here where did you work before you came here when you live well. In many us States Capital punishment is still practiced convicted prisoners can spend years waiting for execution but most of the time the victims families they are very much in favor of the Death Penalty there are some people because of what they did have given up the right to live among us somebody even proven innocent years on death row and how many more exonerations is it going to take before we as a society realize that this is not working and we actually do something about.
