A Strict Lockdown in the capital. Part of chinas capital is sealed off and its just a food market shut down after fears of a new coronaVirus Outbreak. Nearly 3 weeks after George Floyds death sparked mass demonstrations across america the Police Killing of another black man has triggered demonstrations anger and condemnation just in the past couple of hours atlantas police chief has resigned after a video of the fatal incident to managed police a racial brooks whod fallen asleep in his car at a Fast Food Restaurant failed a breath test and resisted arrest the officers then tried using a taser on him but a fight broke out brooks is seen taking the taser before hes facially shot. When they went to effect a rest on the individual struggle ensued between the parties officer was able to cool his taser out in the attempt to tase a suspect but the suspect ended up taking the taser from the officer and at some point it was later that the suspect was dean using a taser against the officer at this particular point in time weve called him because the officer did these charges weapon striking the suspect in the suspect was transported from the singing to Grady Memorial Hospital well thats not been on the gallagher hes in miami and he obviously this is a really highly charged time and there are now videos of that incident that have been released what more do we know about exactly what happened today well we know that the police were called on friday night to a Fast Food Restaurant after reports a customer was asleep in his car causing other customers to drive around it now when those 2 Police Officers arrived on the scene they carried out to sobriety test on racial brooks and said that he failed that test then you can see the video there is a struggle between racial brooks and these 2 Police Officers punches are thrown by mr brooks he then reportedly grabs one of the offices taser weapons and runs away with it and its alleged that he then turned on one of the officers who opened fire ive watched the video now are all seeing it ive heard at least 3 shots and racial brooks later died in hospital now the question here is what would the police have done it for a shot brooks was not an africanamerican what would they have done if it was any of the situation in which they did not have to use deadly force now the chief of police of Atlanta Erica shields has offered her resignation the mayor of atlanta accepted lets hear what kesha lon spotted had to say. While there may be debate as to whether this was an appropriate use of deadly force i firmly believe that there is a clear distinction between what you can do and what you should do i do not believe that this was a justified use of deadly force and have called for the immediate term a nation of the officer and were already seeing some of the political fallout here i see protesters already back in the streets in georgia over this incident its now been nearly 3 weeks we were saying since george freud was killed whats the state of process around the country now. Well the protests are continuing theyre not abating and i think this latest incident in which you hear the maire of a major city in this country saying that was an excessive use of deadly force will just fuel what is a long burning fire the timing of this really couldnt be worse for the people arguing against Police Reform because that is the major call of protests around the nation you hear this phrase Police Defunding which is broadly misunderstood i think a president from that meeting thinks that means getting rid of the police what it actually means is changing their practices on the ground and also taking their budgets and using some of the money for social programs which would benefit colors communities of color i should say but i think the fact that a police chief of a major city in this country has resigned over the shooting of a africanamerican man is pretty significant remember this all comes less than 2 weeks after 6 atlanta Police Officers violently dragged 2 students from their cars using tasers they slashed the tires they smashed the windows those 2 students were charged with absolutely nothing they both happened to be africanamerican as well 4 of those officers have now been charged initially the chief of police was praised for swift action over that particular event but this seems to be one a vent and one death of an africanamerican to far and again and yet again there for us in miami thank you very much well we can now speak to jason hes a senior lecturer in the africanamerican studies department at the university of Maryland College park he joins us now on skype from washington d. C. Thank you for being with us jason just picking up what andy was saying there police chief eric shields was very quick to act when those 6 Police Officers took on the 2 black students a couple of weeks ago but now shes been forced to resign over this whats your take on that. And while i think that you know people are looking for Police Accountability theyre looking for strong leadership theyre looking for change and i think erica shields did the right thing by stepping down saying that the city needs new leadership particularly when it comes to policing so i think its actually a very responsible act on her on her part i think that this city has done a good job in terms of transparency which in many cases we dont see any footage for months on end in this case it was probably less egregious than other cases weve seen in recent months but still it was i agree with mayor bottoms that this was not a situation that had to end in a mans death and we need to rethink policing overall in this country and cities like atlanta can take the lead on this and it starts with accountability so i think what eric has shields and mayor bottoms did was the correct thing and well speaking of them and i say that madisons of the frontrunner and tens of a. Potential and she acted very rapidly here how do you regard have response is this a success of the movement. Yes i think you know were there not had there not been the outcry that weve seen over the past couple of weeks you would not see the level of accountability or transparency that youre seeing right now and i think parched partly whether we like to admit it or not it was a large scale rebellion that included destruction of property that i think is pushing people towards making the right decisions and not trying to cover things up and trying to keep the population more in line and let them know that change is coming so i think that they are bottom says done a decent job. However i dont think that she with some of the controversies that weve seen in her city that she would be the best choice for joe biden as a running mate i think that there are better choices available who are also africanamerican women so i dont necessarily think that she needs to make the leap from Atlanta Mayor to Vice President ial nominee but i do think that shes doing a good job and she can still serve her city well youre talking about the change that we have seen so if a sense this Movement Began weve seen pace reform legislation for instance right after new york state what do you think needs to happen specifically in atlanta. Well i think her across the nation i think what we need is in terms of accountability is when you have an active force and its going to lead to a lawsuit you Better Believe that mr brooks is spam and we is going to sue. The city of atlanta who are this incident and so what they need to do is make sure that when they get a judgment that that judgment doesnt come out of the taxpayers pockets it comes out of Police Pensions they are the ones who are responsible for these acts of violence so they need to be the one that puts the bill and i think you will see more Police Officers intervening around the country when did they know that they are personally impacted by these payouts for example the city of chicago paid 113000000. 00 in one ear in settlements for Excessive Force so with that money that money coming out of Police Pensions i think you will see radical change amongst Police Departments and i dont believe in defunding the police because i think that there are things that we can do that wont overburden Police Officers we have Police Officers who are having to respond to Mental Health crises and thats not their job their job is to do other things so i think defunding the police putting that funding in some places that actually prevent the root causes of crime will really help us. In that trend africanamerican studies at the end of us have merit and thank you for joining us on out of there. Thank you. Well violence broke out in Central London between anti racism and far right Groups Holding rival demonstrations now some of the far right crowd attacked Police Officers trying to keep both sides apart Prime Minister Barak Johnson described the events as racist thuggery so were going to get reports.

Scores of Police Officers moved into position to stop further breakouts of violence theres already been scenes of tension between those far right organizations and the police that protest itself meanwhile what the black wives Matter Movement here wants to do is focus on the issues rather than any possible eruptions between them and the far right organizations the. One way the black lives movement did that organizing smaller marches across the country. But even in those marches such as this one in the Northern City of new castle the far right also issued out their own calls looking for confrontation throwing flares and taunting the police the events in the us have triggered debates about the state of Race Relations in britain but there are elements of society who violently resent that. By far right leaders under the guise of patriotism they would rather provoke the needing fully engage. So neither you will aljazeera london.

You can see thousands of people defied a ban to join the march in central paris the rally was led by supporters of adama tro or a french black man who died in Police Custody in 2060 and under unclear circumstances no one has been charged to fight multiple autopsies and as those crowds marched on the streets below counterdemonstrators climbed a building and hung a banner denouncing what they called anti white racism where residents in the building then took matters into their own hands and told part of the ballot down while the french government spokeswoman is calling for the collection of ethnicity base to to sticks in a bid to monitor the extent of discrimination then to bethen diane who is of senegalese heritage says not being able to measure and see reality as it is has allowed fantasies to prosper her proposal comes as ethnic statistics in the u.

Canadas National Police force said officers used reasonable force when adams resisted arrest but after the video surfaced a senior official made an abrupt about face earlier this week i made the statement that i did not believe there was systemic racism within the r. C. M. P. Or canadian policing. I expressed my belief that racism is found in all aspects of our society in our institutions and in our Police Services chief adam is an outspoken indigenous leader known internationally for his work against Oil Sands Projects near his community but while his fame has focused public attention on discrimination and abuse of people of indigenous descent his experiences are all too common and bitterness people make up less than 5 percent of canadas population but they account for around a 3rd of the prison population and 30 percent of death in Police Custody the question is now what authorities will do about a system that many here say is racist david mercer aljazeera in calgary canada.
