We just seem laid out a lot of bills lots of. Losing muscle from native people using. The piano to. Let them have anything you can hold up. To the who thinks. That all of the war. Or the. Only dealing in the muslim world as a full book you can sit around and stuff it and ship them through that is a room is the meat of. Human activity has brought us to the brink of the worlds 6th major extinction of it and the people in this film just come take it anymore. Greetings and sally you take the yes way hawk watchers what and what time we are living in to welcome you all back yes my friends we are back with new shows right in time for the true coronavirus chaos to begin here in the United States of america at least thats what the white house and Trump Administration are finally admitting after weeks and weeks of really bad really no no no its really bad you know easter is going to be you know big league open for business but but seriously its really bad state home button. And staying at home is exactly what many of us across the country are doing staying at home and going on strike yes in recent days weve seen average u. S. Citizens from all walks of life suddenly spring to life as they are rising up against the many forms of financial oppression they face in these very oppressive times across the country from california to new york city and a great many cities in between on april 1st many of them more than 40000000. 00 who wrote rent homes and apartments the United States are taking part in rent strikes with hashtag rent strike trending social media pages have been filled with pictures of strikers hanging white sheets from their windows and showing their neighborhood then the world that they will not be paying rent during this time of crisis casey james out of atlanta who is advocating and organizing that no 1. 00 pay rent until the pandemic ends somethings up pretty simply to the Washington Post stating its not fair everything is shut down you cant work our mayor says stay home dont go outside but were expected were expected to pay the cost of subsidizing landlords if were really in this disaster everything should be frozen. Meanwhile things are not well on the good ship amazon his employees are staging walkouts and strikes at warehouses in chicago Staten Island and beyond in response to not only the companys allegedly sub par coronavirus Safety Measures but also for their brutal treatment and public slandering of any worker who calls attention to it. The trumpet ministration says this week will be like pearl harbor and 911. 00 of the death and tragedy front but could this week also bring us a new generations of battle of Cripple Creek or mickeys rock strike lets find out as we start watching. Whats going on a cd. Player so you. See that this is joyce state. Great city this ladys systemic deception is so but shes. So pretty so youll. Want to watch a. Little girl and i think its a cross boy oh boy i mean not only are we seeing this kind of oppressive time and were seeing people staying indoors but were also seeing people rise up we absolutely are and i dont think that there could be a better time because amid all of this disaster we also solve the white house and a lot of the Congress Members go back and forth about what a relief package what a stimulus package would look like and now weve seen at least the 1st round or the 3rd let them tell it of the stimulus package nobody has seen a chick yet and the majority of folks who actually saw all the relief are going to be these major corporations we also saw that with the airlines got billions of dollars in terms of a bailout it leaves one of them has already laid off hundreds of thousands of employees its only expected something that congress should have actually put into into the stimulus package before they handed over that cash because one of the issues we always see is that. The government likes to bail out big business and those bailouts dont necessarily help the people who work for those businesses or the people who lives those services and i think that right now were seeing a lot of businesses taking advantage of workers particularly those essential workers that are working in your Grocery Stores the folks who are driving your the folks who are working in amazon and other other factory related businesses and arent really thinking about their health or their safety so it is high time that people take the streets will get it will take to the internet to get as much attention around this as possible i saw the great meme kind of come out of all this where you know it had a play on bruce willis and armageddon where its kind of like hey essential workers we never want to pay taxes again ever with you know the pledge because you know there are that needed but this is insane and you know what the demands of like lets say the chicago look at chicago Amazon Warehouse workers went on strike their demands are not terribly aggressive they say basic simple demand says cover medical bills for employees or family members who contract the coronavirus as a result of exposure at this warehouse suspend write ups based on the rate at which workers package and sort deliveries to ensure workers have enough time to actually practice safety precautions at the end maintain transparency about all the coronavirus cases that are out there where how that happened at the warehouse and soon as managers know about them thats pretty easy simple the measure to nestle theyre not asking for anything pie in the sky theyre not asking for anything theyre honestly not ask me for any extra free stuff either what they are asking for is. Basic access which youre talking about those who work for amazon what people have to realize is that over 70 percent of their workers are low wage workers or part to part time workers or contractors these are individuals who do not qualify for Health Insurance under amazon and these are the individuals who are making sure that everything you and anybody else across the globe is ordering gets to this because they have to be in those factories and theyre not getting their basic necessities and no theyre not and then when you go over to the rent side of this thing were seeing people said i cant pay rent people 1st and weve just passed up with it people start up saying what i got no job i got furloughed home are supposed to pay rent this is ridiculous and its not about like paying rent to somebody who owns a condo whos you know rents out to a few people you know these are big corporate landownership big corporate groups that own these apartments this is about saying standing up to a corporation saying im not just going to hand you money when i have them give exactly and in most of our Major Urban Centers the chicago the d. C. The l. A. Is what you do see is that a lot of these are a lot of runners are paying their cash to very large groups that multiple buildings in many cases across multiple cities at the same time these are individuals who are going to totally fall apart should they create some sort of relief for people who honestly can not come up with the money right now and not all of them are asking to not pay anything at all a lot of them are asking just for a little bit of extra time because they simply do not know what next week is going to look like what next month is going to look like and they know that they. Are still do but right now theyre making some really intense decisions a lot of that is whether you know the lights are going to stay on keeping food on the table their kids are at home and again a lot of these individuals do not have Health Insurance so theyre also trying to come up with the cost of those medical bills and that and that level of care i say i applaud them for standing up and saying no were not going to take this and just to quickly before we move on to the next subject of 34 states have actually issued extensive moratorium sort of actions but that still means they have to pay the backgrounds. That doesnt mean ok we wont get evicted but then you know 8 months from now theyre going to have like 2 months where they got to make up for and no one can afford about at the end of the day come on. Mandatory quarantine shelter in place stay at home however you phrase it the meaning is the same stay home save lives as the world continues to grapple with the realities of its latest invader at 19 the safest place should be your home but if you are a victim of Domestic Violence coronavirus the cautions put you directly in the crosshairs across the United States reports of Domestic Violence skyrocketed in the month of march in conjunction with the growing list of cities and acting stay at home wards Domestic Violence calls are increasing to Law Enforcement agencies are seeing double digit cases in calls across cities like houston charlotte chicago in phoenix the national Domestic Violence hotline a Lifeline Call Center averages 1800. 00 to 2000 calls per day. A perfect storm of desperation is growing for people rapid job loss job uncertainty for those still employed housing insecurity and rent pylons it just keeps getting worse and worse the Financial Stress alone creates an unhealthy environment leaving families with a history of Domestic Violence on the brink of disaster with many kids being home from school and college during the coronavirus pandemic young people have a lot to the abuse and assault as well to top it all what is being called pearl harbor week as the coronavirus backdrop consumes every part of our daily life Domestic Violence shelters are fighting to keep their doors open there has been no Government Stimulus Program despite our nations shelters at capacity and their fundraising capabilities. This is personal to my best friend and Sorority SisterMegan Montgomery was shot and killed by her estranged husband just a few months ago and my own little sister right now is fleeing Domestic Violence with my 4 year old nephew and 2 year old niece into as we battle coronavirus we have to also think about those fighting for their lives at home where shelter in place is no shelter at all. This is a great a great story a great subject matter that you brought you brought up today and we should because its one of those things i think we forget too quickly these are those things that slide through the cracks were saying oh i want to stay at home be safe from the virus will like as you pointed out what if theres potentially more dangerous or equal to the billions of catching the virus absolutely in a think but it poses so many issues because the whole meteorology around Domestic Abuse and abusers is that they want to path to isolate the people they have this gives them the perfect way to do so these individuals arent visiting family because they cant they arent interacting with friends they have no real escape and now they are cooped up in a home with this abuser 24 sevenths and what do you do where do you go how do you escape key. And you even call is that even safe because now this person is here watching you all day all day and then when you add when you add in those were talking earlier today when you add in the dangerous mix you know there mentioning you know the loss of wages the pressures of being under the you know idea of what any minute if i go outside and talk to the wrong person i could get sick and go you know good all that when you add to the mix to an already volatile situation the Domestic Abuse is this is this is something that we have to kind of figure out an answer for real quick because we cant keep going on like this we cant keep putting these people in danger like this absolutely and one of the other things we also know is that a lot of people who suffer from Domestic Violence of Domestic Abuse are also folks who have symptoms of depression anxiety and all of these other Mental Health issues that come from living a life of constant fear we also know that those individuals and the support that they need from Mental Health centers and theyre not getting were talking about the lack of money and the lack of attention paid to these the method violence shelters those Mental Health clinics and that support has all but been eradicated over the past 4 or 5 years and a lot of cities across the country where a lot of those places have completely shut down and right now the phone is ringing off the hook to get some type of assistance to those in need and you know and whenever you talk about these cases to you also talk about like a lot of the victims of Domestic Abuse are world one point able to use hotels air b. N. B. Places like that to run to your lease like hey can you give me some but i got to get out of their situation they get picked up drive already or be in the road so now thats not an option really its not there at all and weve seen air b. N. B. Extend itself to a lot of our frontline workers a lot of our nurses because they recognize that those people cant come in contact with their kids when they go home but we havent seen that sort of outreach to Domestic Violence victims so they dont have any place else to go except the home to stay in the home where theyre being abused every day and the standing of the even more saddening part is that many of those individuals who express who. Violence my sister being included 8 do their best to shelter their kids from it even when theyre in the same place either you know they will have somebody come pick them up they put them in daycare they put them in after School Programs all of these things to try to mitigate them actually seeing it live right now none of that is possible what what is the what is the way that you see someone not only who started this many years but also someone whos mentioned some of the family do it what is the way out what to do what can government do how can people help these people right now i think that they do and its tough because were seeing so its an Election Year and Election Year politics are always very wonky and difficult the reauthorizing the violence against womens act we need to do what we needed to do and yesterday i dont care who the president is what we know is that Domestic Violence is not respected blue or red it doesnt care what region of the country youre in and what region of the world youre in we need to get to a point where we are sounding the alarm where those people arent able to get guns right now that more we need to get to a point where we are providing a safe haven we need to increase the amount of funding to those Domestic Violence shelters particularly to organizations who help to how those individuals who are basically on the run from these abusive situations and fully recognize it and i say this because my dear for in last her life 2 days after thanksgiving she had in her possession a in order to keep him away from her he came 2 weeks later pulled her out of a restaurant and shot her in the back 3 times so its a problem for me when people think that you just going to the police and then giving you a restraining order is going to protect you because that does not work its a great thing to do but it doesnt mean that your life is going to everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand to brand new portable t.
