Transcripts For RT Watching The Hawks 20240713

The private economy generates 150000000000. 00 in u. S. Dollars in illegal profits per year about 3 times more than was previously estimated 150000000000 dollar industry and thats numbers from 6 years ago but the industry of human servitude is not just limited to the violent extremes of Human Trafficking no no no if this new millennium has taught us anything its that indentured servitude and slavery can take many different forms just as the 45000000 u. S. Citizens suffering under the crippling 1. 5 trillion in Student Loan Debt or the millions upon millions who are working more than one job just to make ends meet put food on the table keep put a roof over their heads so today my friends lets break down this centurys new slave trade as we start. Watching the whole mess. In the city streets. There so you can see the. Joy. Grace suggests ladies systemic deception. But she. Joins us. On the watching the dark side. Wow wow wow this is this is really bad when you see these numbers of this many people youre talking for you know 4xw1c5xw you know 1000000000 dollar industry this is a massive industry and its only getting worse absolutely and i think that contextually its very important to note that this isnt just something when people think of sex trafficking they always think of issues abroad this is something that is actually going on right here in the United States and in fact a lot of our major cities are ports and hubs of entry for for access to a lot of these very young girls starting in some cases as young as 11 or 12 youre exactly right in fact i think it was the average age right now for a young for a young woman sold for sex is about 13 years old as an average you know when you add it all ages to give us the media thats frightening and tragic thats a child and we should question when when young girls go missing particularly young girls of color because they dont get the same News Coverage they dont get the same the same amount of focus and resources thrown to actually finding them when these young girls are going missing across the country in large part of the industry that they are being driven into is this section. You know its interesting because national the National Center for missing and exploited children which i believe was created back in the eightys if im not mistaken they compiled the f. B. I. Data on their own of the nearly 24000 runaways that reported that was reported to the southern just 2019 out of 24001 in 6 were likely victims of child sex trafficking one in 6 and all of those of that one in 688 percent were in the. Social services when they were missing thats a big problem in this country when you have the government run like what the government designed to hopefully help children is now a pipeline into slavery and thats the scary part of this because a lot of these young women have been women who have gone through the foster care system or women who have been have been removed from the homes of their parents either because their parents were incarcerated they werent able to take care of them their Mental Health issues they were Substance Abuse issues and now theyre entering into it in underworld where in many cases these kids will never come back and when in the rare cases where they do they are never the same they have been passed along through through the sex trafficking industry through several different people they have been documentaries about sometimes them having to sleep with 20 people a day like this is a very tragic thing for a lot of these young girls and then theyre you know theyre pumped with drugs and all these other things to perform before these you know very elderly in some cases minn and its very sad because those far we have not seen the amount of attention nationally that i think that this type of issue deserves no we have and then there are but then the other thing that i brought up to that i thought was interesting is we talk you know this extreme form of Human Trafficking and that and that needs to be dealt with right away thats number one but theres also this other idea of slavery in the 21st century thats the slave to debt so thats frightening to me i mean one of the 5 americans now work in whats called no under no complete clauses meaning that they only can work for the business the spreading them you know you got how many people in the student you dont mention these numbers earlier the debt slavery isnt going on right now absolutely in the not compete clause used to only be one that was utilized very strongly in the private sector today were seeing non compete clause has actually come across Nonprofit Sector and public sectors as well in addition to that there are limits that are associated with jobs you can get after you leave that position so i think that thats a very important thing to bring up because in the context of. Being a day. We have to remember that that is a very that is a structural issue that a lot of people are talking about but its also one in which young people specifically those who are recent grads sign into these contracts for employment honestly because there isnt a ton of jobs out there that are going to be able to provide them Health Insurance coverage and these other things that they need but then theyre chemists strapped to not being able to go anyplace else. Regardless of how theyre being treated on that job if theyre not getting paid a wage that is that is equivalent to their male counterparts view to their female or if theyre racial issues and tensions there theres so many things that keep them locked in and i think that you know bringing something up like this is extremely important especially in this day and age where were seeing more and more businesses utilize this as a means to keeping their keeping their employees outside of taking on any other type of work yeah which is which is sad because look if you want to do that in the old days it was just pay them more exactly you know that was an older more money and you keep the best talent that way but now you dont see that now its like no no we want you sign this and you want your site in this noncompeting its crazy and theres a server too and we all know that you know study after study has shown that the majority of millennial am people outside of the millennial i age group have to work beside hustles if you will just to be able to make ends meet so i think that any any Employment Opportunity that limits what you can do outside of that is going to be problematic because you never know what types of debt these folks are in a lot of it is Student Loan Debt some is hospital bills and other and other things many young people are taking care of taking care of elderly people theyre taking care of younger siblings they have responsibilities that are beyond their years in many senses so maybe that one job is not providing them enough to be able to take care of everything including the rising housing costs its a great point very important point. For all the details of criminal Justice Reform reentry and rehabilitation americas bassed Prison Industrial Complex still finds ways to dehumanise. Limit opportunity for those in custody book clubs and access to prison libraries are commonly used assets for inmates books are often donated from Public Libraries nonprofits and private entities but places like California State Prison in sacramento are restricting their use from banning specific titles and genres of books many of which are American Classics to charging him mates who read them yes charging inmates as they read these Books Research point for the importance of reading and developing empathy reducing stress and anxiety finding a source of motivation and the development and sharpening of analytical skills all things everyone could use but especially important for those cut off from the rest of the world and distance from their loved ones the cry for more books is coming from inmates themselves who write letters pleading for volunteer groups to donate books like an easy task but wardens often circumvent these very small requests prison systems argue that contraband concerns are one of the reasons for ratcheting up restrictions on what gets into prison libraries for a growing prison censors has raised concerns from prison advocacy groups here to tell us more about book bans in americas prisons its watching the hawks on social media producer and journalist devin springer. Always a pleasure having you on the show thank you very much definitely so we know that these restrictions exists across the country in prisons but they dont exist at the same level so in some cases were seeing most of our modern books be restricted specifically those that are that question criminal justice and theres some of them as it stands and but beyond that were also seeing some American Classics beyond that restricted list things that are in the American Literary canon and it seems like prisons are deciding that they want to restrict willy nilly different types of books is there something that or is there a mechanism around that is uniform why are they restricting some books and not at me and thats a good question with a complex sort of multilayered answer so essentially books in prisons are state regulated to an extent but in reality each prison when it comes to state and federal facilities tend to create their own list of books that are not allowed and so when we talk about specific titles you can even go online and a lot of state and federal facilities and find a list of books and like you said is usually like the new jim crow by Michelle Alexander our prisons obsolete by angela davis these are the kind of books that youll find on those a list including some very harmless books like drawing 101. 00 in yoga but essentially theres no sort of National Standard for books in prisons that prisons must follow so you can have one more than one person who shrugs and says i dont care which in the us we dont have that kind of word and over and then others you can have the ones that say youre only read and i dont know the bible and related concepts. Of thing you know means you brought up the idea that theyre charging these inmates now to read basically every 0. 03 a minute because they usually have the books on some kind of one of those kind of. You want to read whos profiting from movies like this because to me this is absolutely despicable you go charge someone to read a book while theyre in jail yeah that is a great question so essentially about a year ago to 2 years ago they started transitioning to using tablets inside many prisons and jails as well the tablets can be used. Video calls so and some facilities are actually eliminating family like visits and switching to video chats which you can imagine that Human Interaction is really great for Mental Health for an incarcerated person so theres a lot of Health Concerns that come with that but part of that is also getting rid of prison libraries and transferring them on to these tablet devices where theyre actually using online databases now that are regulated by the prison so the people profiting from it are those who make the tablets who are doing these multimillion dollar contracts with prison facilities in this specific instance in West Virginia its global telling. Are making millions of dollars they made 9000000. 00 on video visits alone and 2018 thats just in video visits so you can imagine if theyre charging 0. 03 a minute to read a book if you read a book for 11 hours thats almost 20. 00 but if youre only making 0. 20 an hour working then youre going to spend all your money just to read 1. 00 book no thats ridiculous and if the goal is to decrease recidivism its to rehabilitate and we know what the value of reading what the value of being able to have that escape actually is for people who dont have regular Human Interaction but also for those of us who do how is this book restriction going to help people with life post incarceration well its essentially not i mean we saw in the mid eightys they started to get rid of g. D. In College Programs and they started to get rid of extracurriculars like frivolous things like yoga classes and even now in some states theyve even cracked down on like religious events such as sunday services right so this is sort of in that directory and its not going to help them at all the numbers show that prisoners who read more books have a lower chance of reentering a prison or jail and this is actually does not even have to be scientific this is common sense right if you allow someone to read and educate themselves while theyre in a confined space theyre just gaining knowledge they have nothing else to do with their time most of the time and so for do labor for almost no money right remember some of the. The more people read the smarter they get the more independent they get the more they think for themselves the more they realize that theyve got in the wrong with a stick and should because they want to keep people in idiotic because there is there to control exactly and remember when it comes to slavery in the us for example one of the 1st laws that came about around slavery is that they were not allowed to read and write so i think this is an irony exactly as in a very similar vein ill say that always great work thank you so much for coming on today always a pleasure.

In the troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage through parts of Northern Ireland that was coordinated loyalist attacks on the population tens of thousands were forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was a p. R. You see the Police Actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing it they were active participants in the burning of full streets in belfast at the time more than a 100 innocent civilians were. As the review can seniors and we found out more i was surprised about the extent of the crates which the killers and was involved in some of those cases that killers would later be named into the now were getting i think it went to the very very top i think its the. The water where all the patients you. Gave the go ahead. President trump continues to redefine what it means to be an american and if youre poor in trucks america it doesnt include you in fact the Us Government now has the legal right to deny residency to people who might use or have used public assistance in the past legal immigrants who have use food stamps or medicaid for Long Term Care can be denied a green card in a win for the immigrant hating and welfare demonizing Top Administration the u. S. Supreme Court Granted their work with to stay an injunction in illinois case about the public charge will immigration the bow came with the. Strong dissent from the lone Latina Justice on the high court sort of mayor it appears president tropp rallied his troops on the bench in a 54 vote breaking along partisan lines the conservative judges dealt a blow to immigrant rights thought of my or accused her colleagues in the majority of undermining fairness and process by continually granting the trumpet ministrations request she delivered a sharp rebuke on how the court is favoring trump over all other litigants officially putting politics and partisanship above the law needless to say didnt take the criticism sitting down and today in a tweet call for both female liberal justices to recuse themselves from cases involving him. Yes trumps in fear lee believes he controls all branches of government and if you disagree with him you should be removed problem is unlike career Civil Servants fired or reassigned over the course of his impeachment hearings in the lead up to the Supreme Court justices serve life long terms as trump continues to ratchet up for his november Reelection Campaign unfair immigrants than it grows with the conservative majority beckoning to his will whats next for the 3900000 immigrants affected under this new law here to answer that question and tell us more if immigration attorney alan or to you and i have always a pleasure having you on the show thank you how does this go to this decision now reshape and allow what kind of put forth what is ministrations put forth in terms of Legal Immigration right so theres 2 things in the legal world we should always talk about one is process and one is that actual substance so tomorrow was addressed in the process so generally things star in a lower court they were going through the Appellate Court and then they go to the Supreme Court the Trump Administration skipped the Appellate Court and went right to the Supreme Court that was a claim that had nothing to do with underlying policy it was just you didnt follow the procedure because they were judges at the lower level and there was no real reason why does he go in effect immediately because it hasnt been in effect in the past and theyre already safeguards to sort of address this so thats the procedural answer so the thing 1st. Sort of out of place you can tell truly its really not so much about the rule as it is a Chilling Effect around the world to tell people we dont want you here because you dont actually have to be poor it just tells you that we dont want you if you think you might be poor who wants to go through a process paper that these and then be denied a visa throughout the process and for black and brown people it is a curse and also for poor people around the world it becomes extremely problematic to meet those levels because what it gives the opposite of the ability to say is i think you might need public assistance in the future right and as we know today you can have a 1000000 dollars today and no money tomorrow its just youre Just One Health go away or just one bad luck in your business so all those things and sort of change the trajectory so if someone were to come in a nonimmigrant visa now with thousands of dollars they get in a car accident here something happens they lose their money they can go on public assistance and theres no problem with that but if someone were to come here who won lets say not one of the countries that have a limited diversity visa study here had no money at a very modest background for some tribe in some area then became a doctor made a lot of financial and here and then started paying taxes that person would be prohibited from coming here so its actually that message that continues to be through the system that we dont want you because we think youre going to take something from us and what it helps is the Political Campaign this is how the election was won last time on the concept that the reason americans are poor or they dont have a job is not because of the government not because of the billionaires but because of the immigrants that are at the southern border that walk thousands of miles to get here who dont have cars because theyre coming in and theyre taking their jobs although there are also lazy. A point that just seems to keep hammering home and one that is actually sadly resonating with a lot of people across this country when we talk about trumps reimagining and reinventing what immigration means the United States in particular when hes speaking towards black and brown immigrants to your point earlier there is this idea that they have nothing to offer that youre coming here because youre taking something from us as that narrative continues to play out and were seeing the real tangible efforts that hes making. Here what do you think is going to be the outcome i think the outcome is going to be just another smaller base for him right you see this sort of change back to the earlier ways when immigration 1st started where they had this sort of preference for people who were of a certain way of a certain religion from a certain background so what is sort of happens is the Chilling Effect is that people who are muslim dont come here anymore they dont come to our schools anymore they go to canada people who are wealthy nigerians for example where you just put a travel ban in effect are now picking other countries to go africa is a huge continent bigger than most of the other continents combined a leading tech continent and now china is going to move in because america has said to that continent we dont want you here to the leading industrial pulls there so its very chilling all of our Economic Projections actually point to the exact opposite of what they show how the strength of our immigration and the strength of the immigrants who live here and make america home actually helps build our economy by excluding them we stand to lose billions of dollars of thats not the argument that this administration is carrying and i think that its something that we need to hone in on as well that theres a concept in immigration that for whatever reason that were the worlds richest country which were not anymore and then when people show up theres a law where we just give it up to us that we dont give americans and anyone should have the concept to know that that just doesnt happen no one comes here and gets anything people see tons of there were communities here in d. C. Where you see the community and used to work hard together 3 to 4 jobs in the next generation moves up it is the American Dream and work and you see that most in communities of color thats what happened the reverse the rebirth of chicago right was all of it were going to be nice a lot of new york is all of our communities those most popular is california the most profitable states that we have right now are because of immigrants and those states that are dying because if were going to come there any more when you look at maine vermont right places where people dont want to live where theres nothing for them to do theres no sort of because the immigrant they need a Political Community is in the billionaires the side of minneapolis and minnesota is really all about the American Media that has moved there to sort of build up that foundation its very true the small Immigration Group in minneapolis minnesota is a fantastic part of the culture there and. Added so much to that city as someone who grew up there and its its sad that we see this because its i mean its absolute because nowhere in our history if you really look back was immigrants ever handed anything in fact a lot of them got off the boats and were immediately sent into the military to go by in the civil war and there was a bit you know they were never given a free ride and this is just ridiculous that even today were still fighting that caricature it makes it makes the base feel better to your point earlier spiels like america if they lead driving away from them and theyre blaming it on black and brown people and it gives the officer too much discretion thats the real problem is i get to look at you when you walk in and make a decision about the future about your life about your needs and we know that theres a lot of biases in those officers who are sort of making those decisions and thats the problem theres no uniformity among it and when you sort of look at the travel ban and you look at this Immigration Reform and these policies its really hurting ilLegal Immigration and its not and that issue at this immigration is supposed to be about people who are undocumented and its consistent about people ducking people who are undocumented does it really i mean at this point theyre hard to sort of say that theyre not planning permission at this point well right i got to say thank you so much you know how much i love having you on the bridges down for the great job thank you so much for always thank you for having me. Sometimes youve got to fight fire with fire and that is exactly what scientists are doing after working to create a new virus in the brain of cowpox that actually attacks cancer and destroys cancer who at least a dozen a petri dish in new york city are to america is true the chavez has more. Scientists that australian Biotech Company imogene may have found a way to kill all types of cancer cells and shrink the tumors thats promising results not providing new hope as scientists look to begin human trials. By mixing cowpox a virus that was proven to successfully protect people from smallpox some 200 years ago and is known to be harmless to humans and mixing it with other viruses scientists created the c f 33 we basically picked it because it was so good it. In cancer the virus proves not only to be a powerful killer of several strains of cancer in a petri dish but also shrink tumors in mice we picked a virus that killed everything that. N. C. I. 60 to 60 different clinton kinds of cancers at the National Cancer institute screens for new agents and then we found the one that was really very very well tolerated dr fox started the research by deciding to restart the entire process of how to design viruses so he took 9 different vaccines strains that werent toxic to man and by mixing them with other cancer cells he found a c 33. 00 whole ideas that imuss love trading Genetic Information so instead of trying to be really smart and designing the virus to do what we think it should do to kill cancer i said well well just let him go and trade pieces of the d. N. A. Inside a cancer cell and if it bend really well in the cancer cells and it might become we might be able to find that one combination that is the best for killing cancer now dr fung is planning human trials for potentially life saving treatment most viruses and most cancer agents that weve designed only concerted types of cancer this particular virus seems to be like infecting and killing any cancer but this isnt the 1st time that cancer killing viruses have proven to be effective there was evidence that viruses could kill cancer from the early 1900 when people vaccinated against rabies and their cancer disappeared and went into remission and in 2015 a genetically engineered version of the herpes virus has been tested and approved to treat moma a type of skin cancer that iris pro to help the bodys immune system recognize and destroy tumors and melanoma cells in the body now dr fong says that the 1st phase of human trials will focus on triple negative Breast Cancer patients which will hopefully begin this summer reporting in new york tradition all of us are taking. Oboyle. All right that is our show for you today what a way to end it ever remember everybody in this world were not told really loved enough so i tell you all i love you i am tired robot and i mean keep on watching all those hawks out there and have a great day and night.
