City on edge again a washington d. C. Capitol Police Officer is killed after a man rammed his car into a barricade. Pulling your nguyen and. For that amount of. That amount of time. Is just. Uncalled for a senior Police Officer gives his assessment of the force used against george floyd before he died saying it was totally unnecessary. And im sorry to the latest sports including Major League Baseball strike that trantor the allstar game because of new controversial vote signals in the state of georgia. Hello welcome to the news hour at least 5 more people have been killed in myanmar in the latest crackdown on anti cooper testers more than 2 months since the military deposed the civilian. Leadership Security Forces shot and killed protesters in 3 different cities on saturday and despite that demonstrations are continuing in major cities including mandalay the military has also issued arrest warrants against 18 prominent online critics tony chang going to an update hes joining us from bangkok in neighboring thailand as were saying protests going on for 2 months now in spite of the military crackdown how much momentum do they continue to have tony. A lot again once again they were ousted in the Early Morning we understand there have been violent crackdowns with the Security Services using live rounds again tear gas rubber bullets in months states in money while in bugaboo we understand there have been fatalities 5 people reported to have been killed so far today in mandalay in. The famous bridge the protesters came out early this morning a couple of hours later the Security Forces were out on the streets we understand theyve now dispersed those protesters. But they also used live fire we havent heard of any fatalities yet but information is much harder to get now in the last couple of days wireless Internet Access has been cut off some people still able to use the internet they have fiber connections but it is very noticeable in the amount of information coming out has been vastly reduced but everything we are seeing is pointing to the fact that those protesters are going out all across the country despite the threat theyve seen despite the casualty theres the growing list of fatalities which is now over 550. 00 dead including 46. 00 children that hasnt deterred people they are still determined to show their disapproval of the military coup and their determination to bring back a civilian government yet only so on the note of the Wireless Internet Services being cut i mean what do we think the strategy is behind that. What weve seen since the coup the military government trying to slowly strangle off information thats been leaking out. I mean there has been an awful lot of stuff coming out on social media with the easy availability of camera phones a lot of abuses of the Security Services have been filmed and theyre still coming out we were just looking at some footage from sun chung district in yangon coming overnight of an inert body being carried out by the Security Services from a house that they had just raided weve seen police kicking beating protesters when they found them dragging away dead bodies as well. Clearly those images the Security Services doesnt want to be getting out of the country there has been increasing condemnation increasingly also from countries neighboring. Like india and even china which has been relatively silent since the coup the messages coming from the Foreign Ministry there has been increasingly critical but as that has come out weve also seen the secure the military government trying to strangle off the information thats coming out indeed some people are suggesting that may also be an effort to try and control the amount of information thats getting through to the troops themselves the military live very much inside a bubble of their own making inside myanmar and there is known to be concern amongst the higher ranks that if all of this information is out there on facebook and on twitter soldiers themselves could access it and they say that may also be why the Internet Service is being cut so the troops cant find out whats going on and what people are thinking of the crackdown nonetheless it is very disturbing many people inside myanmar now feeling very deserted and feeling that their access to the outside world is cant off the fear that theyre facing as this crackdown continues the fears that theyll have to face alone turn chang thank you so much for that update from bangkok. Well prosecutors in taiwan have questioned the driver and owner for construction truck that rolled onto the rail tracks just as a train was approaching at these 50 people were killed when the train hit the truck in the railroad friday its taiwans worst rail disaster in recent history nearly 500 people were on board taiwans president visited the injured in hospital. This distressing accident caused heavy casualties i came to while again today to visit our wounded and express my sympathy to the families of the victims we will definitely do our best to help deal with the funeral issues at present the hospitals are also doing made based and will give the based care to the Wounded Soldiers there as Florence Louis is following the story for us from kuala lumpur and we just saw the president visiting the hospital shes also promised a thorough investigation so this really underscores just how serious the government is taking this accident florence. Yes well this is a very serious accident and officials have warned that the death toll could rise there are still parts of the train severely mangled twisted wreckage that still rammed into the walls of the top of the tunnel and that hasnt been that those sections of the train havent yet been removed and workers rescue officials have warned that more bodies could be found so theyre saying the death toll could rise now and the this is not the worst train accident in on the Island History but it is the worst in recent memory the worst was in 1948 when a train caught fire at an estimated 64. 00 people were killed but the last derailment was only 3 years ago and it also happened on the same eastern line 18 people were killed and investigators later found that that accident happened because the driver had manually disabled the speed of the system and had been going too fast and from what officials have been saying so far it sounds like fridays accident could also have been caused by human negligence so authorities are keen to show that they do take Transportation Safety issues and transportation very seriously the transportation minister has said that hes very sorry and he takes full responsibility for the accident and the president has not only promised Government Support for families of the victims and survivors but also a thorough investigation into the accident ok florence thank you for that update from kuala lumpur. Military says its pushed back an attack by also rob slaters witnesses say 2 army bases were hit about 100 kilometers from the capital mogadishu while the government says most of the attackers were killed the armed group was also claiming victory as it captured the bases and dozens of somalis soldiers were killed in the fighting. A Police Officer has been killed and another injured when a man round his car into a barricade just outside the u. S. Capitol building in washington d. C. The attacker was shot and died in hospital the area was immediately put into lockdown 3 months after congress was raided by Donald Trumps supporters article hain reports in washington d. C. Its happened again. Another attack on the u. S. Capitol suspect ran his car into tomorrow by officers and then hit the north barricade barrier assets time the suspect exit the vehicle with a knife and hand the suspect is believed to be 25 year old noah Greene Police say he lunged at the officers and they shot him dead before his car rammed the steel barricade police say he ran over 2 officers William Evans an 18 year veteran of the force was killed his body escorted to the morgue by a long line of police cars the other officer was seriously injured i just asked that the public continue to keep u. S. Capitol police and their families and in your prayers. This is been an extremely difficult time for u. S. Capitol police less than 3 months ago another member of the Capitol Police force died after trying to battle back a pro trump mob attempting to stop the election in that case reinforcements took hours but those ins of National Guard troops have been here since just after the january 6th attack and they quickly surrounded the building alert for a follow up attack that didnt come congress is not in session right now and police say they had no intelligence on the south bank before this happened so now they start looking for a motive. Most of the fences that have surrounded the capitol since the attempted insurrection have been taken down there were thousands fewer soldiers walking the grounds there was a sense that life here was going back to something approaching normal not now not after another deadly day in front of the symbol of american democracy. Aljazeera washington. Its been a dramatic week of testimony in the trial of a former Police Officer charged with killing george floyd a senior Police Officer testified derrick chauvinist decision to kneel on floyds neck was a totally unnecessary acts of deadly force gabriel these are reports from minneapolis. The end of the 1st week of the derricks jovan murder trial may have lacked the tearful emotion of the previous days but for the defense team it was perhaps the most devastating the jury heard from one of the highest ranking members of the Minneapolis Police force lieutenant Richard Zimmerman a nearly 40 year veteran and a homicide detective he was called on to the scene in the aftermath of floyds arrest and subsequent death to investigate in no Uncertain Terms he condemned show vns use of his knee choke hold on george floyd. What is your. You know your view of that use of force during that time for totally unnecessary what do you mean. Well 1st of all. Pulling him down to the ground face down and putting your knee on a knack for that amount of that amount of time its just. Uncalled for. I saw no reason why the officers felt they were in danger if thats what they felt. And thats what they would have to feel to be able to use a kind of force. In an exclusive interview without his ear after the Court Proceedings had been adjourned for the week George Floyds uncle selwyn jones told me the family just wants justice all im doing is setting back just waiting you know just waiting for that day that killed when i hear guilty i dont get to see him at thanksgiving or christmas or hollowing i dont get the city more he dont get to see his baby he dont get me there were any other things hes supposed to be doing because somebody decided that that day he would be judge jury and executioner its extremely rare for Police Officers to testify against one of their own and the dramatic testimony caps a week that saw several witnesses break down in tears in front of the jury while recounting what it was like to watch george floyd. Who do you think is winning this case in the 1st week. Theres no doubt in the 1st week that the government put its best foot forward in one of the things that they did is used video repeatedly and in different ways to emphasize their point because video has that objectivity that no eyewitness is going to have however for many people here in the Africanamerican Community theres still a long way to go in this trial they have control right now were just theyre just whats in their opinion we dont have no control he cant see this jerk kill filter they said not guilty he can walk away scot free before the trial will continue on monday and its expected prosecutors will continue to call more witnesses perhaps even the chief of police gabriels on dough aljazeera and yeah pulis and seymour had on the outs there. News hour including iran says its ready to meet World Leaders next week to save the 2050 nuclear deal and find out why the u. S. Will not hold direct talks with the wrong music as a new president will look at the major challenges he faces as he tries to unite a divided nation and in sport the teenager whos following in the footsteps of some the biggest stars in tennis history. The 1st frances 3rd nation wide lockdown comes into force in a few hours time as the government tries to stop a new wave of infections persons have been leaving the capital ahead of the new restrictions it includes an overnight curfew closure of schools on nonessential shops as well as a ban on travel between regions for 4 weeks and the babo will give us latest developments so talk to us about the scale of the latest lockdown in france and. Well it is it is a big change thats happening on such a day in france from 7 pm until 6 am this curfew people called you out on the streets thats being extended nation why age now president mike kong has said that there will be some tolerance his words for people who do venture beyond the allowed limits of 10 kilometers from peoples home over the Easter Holiday through to the end of monday which is a Public Holiday in france but after that the police will then be checking that people are making essential journeys. People are still being urged not to go and meet family members that they dont live with over easter in france which is still battling with its covered 90 you know infection rates but the message is that there will be some common sense by the author of these people have had these curfews in different parts of france for a long time now as long as well as the obligation to actually have an artist thats your own piece of paper saying that youre traveling for a valid reason its a lot tougher really than what you see right now in the u. K. Prime minister Boris Johnson has urged people to only meet others outdoors not indoors because he stressed thats where the greater risk is of infection but right now people can meet in groups of up up to 6 at the moment in the u. K. And then on april the 12th businesses will start to open the Prime Minister urging people to be sensible the police saying the same thing but theyre trying at the moment to take a commonsense approach when it came and i know youre also keeping an eye out on other countries in europe like italy because there are reports not confirmed reports in fact that at least is going into lockdown over easter weekend how strict is that lockdown going to. On paper fairly strict of course its always one of the hardest hit countries in europe by the pandemic the whole country now entering a red zone situation that means theres a ban on people traveling outside their hometown or their home region but theres a controversy because people can still take foreign holidays they can fly to other countries in there have been busy scenes in airports in italy some criticism of fact although these are stressing that still are quarantine measures in place for people arriving back into the country people can now exercise near their homes so they can go out but. The other new thing is that people a maximum of 2 people can actually go to somebody elses home over the easter break so thats again showing you how different the messages from places like here in the u. K. Where some countries are saying its ok to meet in small groups indoors others are saying thats where the real risk is but if you meet in larger groups outdoors then really were not going to worry ok nancy and thank you so much for that update from london coronavirus restrictions consume be tightened in some of indias biggest cities if the number of cases continues to rise daily new infections are at a 6 month high with a month long service reaching a peak of around 80000. 00 on monday indias written statement accounted for more than half of the new in fact zones with officials there warning of lockdown may be necessary. Well india is in the spotlight as demands for covert 1000. 00 vaccines grow its home to the Serum Institute thats the Worlds Largest producer which is supplying astra zeneca doses to 60 for poor and middle Income Countries through the u. S. Backed kovacs program but about 19000000 jobs are being delayed india is holding them back to help deal with soaring infections at home disappointed African Union says this will mean its target to vaccinate 35 percent of the continents population this year will be missed by the e. U. Is said to be after a 10000000. 00 astra zeneca vaccines from india Serum Institutes and the u. K. Has ordered 5000000. 00 krishna Mars Associate director for innovation ado Global Health institute thats in the us he says that india Serum Institute is under pressure to balance both domestic as well as international demands. India really has become though workhorse of manufacturing for vaccines largely through the Serum Institute of india kodaks facility is expecting to reach 2000000000 doses it through the kovacs mechanism this year and fully half of that more than a 1000000000 doses would come from the Serum Institute in india of both the astra zeneca as well as novaks and trying to balance that against the needs domestically with a population of 1300000000 and trying to make doses available to other countries around the world puts india and certainly institute in a very difficult position to try to balance all of those needs we need to see more vaccines actually become available with less reliance and whats a really concentrated market right now so some of the good news is that were starting to see increases in manufacturing capacity of some of the m. R. I. On a platform vaccine so with pfizer and by antec now saying they can get to 2500000000 doses this year hopefully that opens up the possibility of a significant uptick through kovacs where right now its a fairly small commitment of 40000000 doses that could potentially increase significantly and trying to understand how we can ramp up manufacturing capacity in other low and middle Income Countries is also going to be important in the coming months. The country is counting on the kovacs Vaccine Alliance is iraq on thursday it receives more than a quarter of a 1000000 astra zeneca vaccines through the un back scheme the government aims to inoculate 20 percent of the population of 40000000. 00 by the end of the year a gut goal could prove difficult holton reports from baghdad. After months of delay at contradictory messages from the ministry of health iraqs covert 19 Vaccination Campaign has begun. With no received 336000 vaccines in the being distributed according to plan to Health Clinics across iraq the Priority Health workers Security Forces the elderly and people with immunity disorders. That prioritize ation plan has yet to be implemented this family doesnt meet any of the criteria but got it turned just by dropping and. I came in Early Morning put my name down and the health stuff told me to come back after 2 hours so i did the government 1st asked people to register online but because of limited uptake it then opened the doors to everyone including young people like myself there isnt enough in courtrooms from the government to take the vaccine so i dont have the priority to take the vaccine but i know if i dont come and take it maybe it will get expired and nobody is going to take it indeed this batch of vaccines expires at the end of may. Off already s. Race against time to mobilize a reluctant public the distrustful of the government and science 65 year old man should be a priority candidate he suffers from hypertension diabetes and had one of his kidneys removed but he has no intention of getting the vaccine. And people are scared especially the elderly vaccines contain cortisol which can stop a lot. So if you also are elderly about taking the vaccine they on so will be no. Such beliefs based on identified sources are not uncommon in iraq where rumors often spread through social media are quickly accepted as facts iraqs government is facing a dual challenge when it comes to inoculating the population on the one hand must come in people to get the scene at the same time if struggling to secure those us from global fire. The astra zeneca inoculations iraq has received are part of 16000000 those is it has been allocated under kovacs the global Vaccine Alliance to ensure equitable distribution of vaccines but a World Health Organization top official in iraq says delivering on those commitments has been a challenge as producing countries prioritize their own needs. Have have had some delays because the manufacturers did not produce as much. To honor. The estimated doses to be distributed now. Theres more vaccines coming on the platform. Trying to speed up while both the scenes are pending delivery you covered 1000 cases are hovering above 5000 daily as the country experiences its highest levels of infection since the onset of the pandemic seen one awful teen aljazeera. Argentinas president Alberto Fernandez who has been vaccinated against coburn 1000 has tested positive for the virus and its when he was waiting for the result to be confirmed as a good spirits despite having a light fever government sources say fernandez was an ocular lated with a russian sputnik vaccine and had his 2nd last month.

Iran says its optimistic about the course of negotiations to save the 2050 nuclear deal the countries would sign the according quoting china france and britain are expected to meet in vienna next week and for the 1st time since donald trump would drew from agreements and 28000 u. S. Delegation will be present although it Wont Take Part directly in the talks we are very clear eyed about the hurdles that remain these talks will be structured around working groups that the e. U. Is going to form with the remaining partners in the j c p a way including iran and the primary issues that will be discussed at the nuclear steps that iran would need to take in order to return to compliance with the j c p a way and the sanctions relief steps the United States would need to take in order to return to compliance as well we dont anticipate presently that there will be direct talks between the United States and iran through the process that we certainly remain open to them and just a moment as a bag will bring us the view from to han but 1st alan fischer is in washington and he looks at the us his approach to these talks. We know that joe biden when he was campaigning to become president said it was his intention to go back into the Iran Nuclear Deal certainly over the last couple of months there have been talks between the american side and the iranians through intermediaries including the europeans trying to see if there is some way they could come to an agreement with neither side ready to make the 1st step to really and were to stop the enrichment of uranium the said they would consider that if the United States lift sanctions or perhaps even gave them the 130000000000. 00 worth of oil sales cash that was frozen abroad neither side ready to make that 1st step so there have been discussions in appears theres no been a breakthrough its getting both sides together in the same city of perhaps not in the same room perhaps not face to face talks but certainly this is something that the United States and looking forward to from the state Department Just in the last 10 minutes have had this statement where they see that it is early days and while there is no signs of an immediate breakthrough in the dont anticipate an immediate breakthrough and there will be difficult discussions ahead we believe that this is a healthy step forward you have to remember a couple of things 1st of all that the iranians have a president ial election in june so the United States would be keen to at least get the workings of a new deal under way before then the other thing is that they want to talk about things outside the nuclear deal they dont just want to talk about and richmond and the process that was there before they also want to talk about missile testing and also whether or not iran will look at how it influences other countries in the region. Well the news was welcomed by Irans Nuclear chief he said that it was good news in the fight over who should take the 1st step in terms of the 2015 nuclear deal had now passed he also said that he was optimistic that the deal could be revived now farm is to develop 3 1st tweeted he said that the aim is to get those sanctions lifted and then iran would return to its commitments but he also said that there will not be a face to face meeting between iran and the United States he said that it was unnecessary now one of the chief negotiators for iran abbas iraq she now what he has said is that there wont be any direct in direct talks between the United States and iran however if the europeans want to go and speak to the United States well thats a matter for them now what hes essentially saying is that iran will not acknowledge any form of direct or director in direct talks with the United States but those are possibly take place because the europeans will be talking to the United States now the reason he said that is because of the domestic politics inside the country nothing has affected that to more than the nuclear deal and those sanctions every day life is affected the banking sector. The economy has suffered but irans irans position still remains the same they dont want to step by step process to this they want all the sanctions lifted that were imposed by former President Donald Trump and then iran will start returning to its commitments in terms of the 2015 nuclear deal leading human Rights Groups and russia have released a rare report condemning moscows involvement in this syrian conflict it was released to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the war it includes interviews with survivors and says most syrians view russia as a destructive Foreign Force the authors also criticize Russian Media for failing to report on attacks against civilians. The International Criminal court says it welcomes the decision by the u. S. To lift sanctions on visa restrictions on its employees imposed by the trumpet ministration the i. C. C. Chief prosecutor and another top official were among those targeted as the court began to investigate american troops for a potential war crimes in afghanistan secretary of state Anthony Blinken says washington still disagrees with that as well as other investigations Steven Rattner is a professor of law at the university of michigan he says its another strong message from the Biden Administration to its international partners. Well its a very significant move for the United States and i think its part of the basically 180 degree we are in taishan of u. S. Foreign policy under the new by administration that said follows along with many other initiatives like rejoining the paris accord i think the u. S. Is trying to send a signal to 3 audiences here and i think 1st and most importantly perhaps our u. S. Allies many of whom are parties to the i. C. C. Statute and who saw this move as complete sort of overkill in response to an investigation it would almost be like putting sanctions on the u. N. Secretary general for just doing his job but secondly i think the u. S. Is trying to send a signal more positive relationship with the i. C. C. That it treats the i. C. C. Is a serious mechanism for accountability and its going to begin to engage and cooperate with the i. C. C. And then i think it sends a message to all other states of the u. S. Now trying to work with International Organizations and not go unilateral on all important issues so i think it means that i. C. C. Officials are now going to come to the United States i think you know i think may share information with them in their profit in the potential investigation of the taliban which will be very very helpful for bringing justice. For the taliban who committed war crimes and i think the u. S. Is going to be trying to explain to the i. C. C. Officials why charges should not be brought against any u. S. Forces either because no crimes were committed or because theyve been investigated whether they will succeed or not its way too early to see but it will be a dialogue and the u. S. I think figured that it was much more likely to meet its policy goals if they talk to the i. C. C. Than if it just rebuffed it. Police in the democratic republic of congo broke up a protest in the eastern city of goma on friday there is anger about the attacks by rebel groups that have killed at least 200 people in recent weeks the u. N. Says around 100 different rebel groups are operating in the eastern. Charles stratford reports and just a warning you may find some of the images disturbing. They hold up photographs of some of the dead victims of the latest mass killing in eastern democratic republic of congo activists with a group called fight for change are demanding the government and un do more to stop the bloodshed at least 123 people reported killed in numerous attacks during the last 3 weeks we dont know you know when youve got there. We denounce the ineffectiveness of the u. N. Force minister which has an offensive mission which for years has failed to do anything. If it acts. We want to mobilize the national and International Opinion in the face of this tragedy. A rebel group called the allied Democratic Forces or i. D. F. This is speculative carrying out the latest attack 23 people shot and many hacked with machetes in a village in the remote forests of the beni region in the northeast of the country problem is. The i. D. F. Originated in neighboring uganda in the 1990 s. With the aim of setting up a socalled Islamic State it is one of more than 100 rebel groups fighting for control of territory in the resource rich region. The un says a recent surge in attacks by the i. D. F. Has killed nearly 200 people and forced 40000 others to flee their homes it says the attacks could constitute crimes against humanity. So very much. We must no longer continue to count deaths we do not know if we are really in a country where there is a government because a responsible government must not allow people to keep being committed if the government feels incapable i believe the government should go and cooperate with other states to help. One of the uns mission in eastern democratic republic of congo was set up in 2010 and includes thousands of military personnel and police a Mission Statement says must go is authorized to use all necessary means to protect civilians aid and human rights workers on the threat of violence.

Something for a long time the criminals of the Islamic State in the greatest heart who are affiliated to dosh almost exclusively attack the defense and Security Forces but for some time theyve begun to attack a village chiefs and then progressively civilians in an indiscriminate manner since last january theyve been carrying out massacres of innocent civilians on a large scale and thereby committing war crimes terrorism is a misfortune for our country.

In northeast asia Cherry Blossoms blooming as a surf sign that spring has sprung this year is the earliest record so the season has started and scientists are pointing at Climate Change public bribe reports from seoul. Its an annual event in northeast asia that heralds the coming of spring and thats been getting earlier each year in tokyo the traditional viewing of the Cherry Blossom coincides with the lifting of pandemic state of emergency restrictions allowing people to take full advantage of the spectacle coming i think that last year i couldnt come here due to the state of emergency so here i am its the earliest that blossom has bloomed here since official records began 70 years ago and historians delving into archives from the ancient capital of kyoto believe its the earliest the bloom has appeared for at least 1200 years of course and i took on you when i was a High School StudentCherry Blossoms were still blooming around the start of the Academic Year in april i think the timing is getting earlier. The colder Korean Peninsula witness says its blossoming just after japan but not by much a rolling wave of color moving south to north as temperatures climb its the earliest that sol has seen Cherry Blossom since records began 1009 years ago and its 3 days sooner than the previous record that was set only last year it coincides with higher than average temperatures and more hours of sunshine the same apparent result of a changing climate is being felt across south korea only the most southerly island of jeju was warm enough to support the growing of subtropical fruit but not any more species like passionfruit are now grown in greenhouses much further north and areas in which subbed. Topical fruits can be grown or expanding towards the southern central and northern parts of the country in japan in recent years the warming climate has meant more devastating summer rains and floods while the Korean Peninsula has suffered from more destructive typhoons the early blossom may portend a change in climate that will bring more extreme weather come the summer months but for now and appearing all the more beautiful given the fragility and transience of its existence the blossom is here to be cherished Robert Bright aljazeera so well stephan is a professor at the Australian National university and he says the early blossoms are a dire warning. There are many other examples of course we could go back to using tree rings a coral reef sections and so on but i think the Cherry Blossoms are particularly striking one because they are valued by many people here a tradition of springtime arriving in eastern asia and so on when it gets remarkable that we can go back 1200 years at least and see nothing close to the Early Arrival of the blossoms that were starting to see now its a very very good long term wrecked one that shows just how fast the comet is now shifting and of course this is a fairly innocuous and indeed rather beautiful warning that things are changing but other ecosystems are experiencing the same sort of changes driven by Climate Change a good example of that is that forests that normally burn only very small amounts of war or only every every few years and now burning at much higher rates good examples being the north american fires in california oregon of a year ago and the massive bushfires and yes eastern australia those ecosystems are also being influenced by Climate Change but in a much more dangerous way than the Cherry Blossoms still had on the officer in our plants stripped off one of the biggest events seem us for several of the details right after the break.

Sports thank you terry or yours President Joe Biden says he supports Major League Baseballs decision to strip atlanta of the prestigious all star game its a protest against a new voting nor in the state of georgia critics say the new measure signed off by georgias republican governor jim access to the ballot box especially for people of color and the all star game was originally jutes take place on july 13th but baseballs bosses are now searching for a new venue b. O. And ill be commissioner old man friend said Major League Baseball fundamentally supports Voting Rights for all americans and opposes restrictions to the ballot box we proudly use our platform to encourage baseball fans and communities throughout our country to perform their civic duty and actively participate in the voting process he says fair access to voting continues to have a games on wavering support now this move has put pressure. On the sports event the masters Golf Tournament in augusta which starts on thursday one Civil Rights Group one schools governing body to cancel the event and is calling on plays to boycott until the voting law is repealed earlier we spoke to a sports broadcaster michael colson. If the masters were the face of white kind it would have to come from the players themselves the Augusta National golf club isnt going to move to another venue the 1st black player didnt play in the masters to 176 that was lee elder and the Augusta National golf club didnt have any black members until 992 and under pressure from the professional golfers they finally integrated so its an interesting question for them as to what they can they will do but they wont have to do anything unless the professional Golf Association the p. G. A. Begins to put pressure on them so i doubt that anything is going to change there but you know i sort of doubted that Major League Baseball would move its offer game i think the quickness of the decision really surprised everybody rob manfred said a few days ago that they were considering it and then they went ahead and did it because i think theres so much more Awareness Among people about the way Voting Rights impact civil rights and given the black lives Matter Movement and the cullen capper nick boycott around that with with the n. F. L. I think baseball wanted to be on the right side and getting ahead of the argument because what has happened in georgia which is the 1st major state to pass legislation restricting voting ability really really say stinks i would say of jim crow legislation which was the legislation that from the end of the civil war up until 965 when the Voting Rights act was passed kept people from voting predominately black people as who it was aimed at in the in the south and so this is really a major move by Major League Baseball its particularly significant this year because it was going to be staged lanta and the theme of the the game and the Major League Baseball amateur player drafted and all the other stuff that goes on around it was going to be to honor henry aaron who was the. The home run king both broke babe ruths record for the Atlanta Braves was an executive to the at the braves and detail going in with very moving way in his biography of the some of the prejudice he faced when he was a young player in the Minor Leagues in Jacksonville Florida when he was an executive with the braves or Turner Turner broadcasting so this will take that focus on henry aaron out of the city where he lived and played and i think thats quite a big thing for Major League Baseball to do.
