Live from cnn center, this is Cnn Newsroom with Robyn Curnow. Thanks for joining me this hour. So, we know that afghan women are defiant, despite growing signs that the taliban government is sidelining them. A group of activists protested outside what used to be the Womens Ministry on sunday of the the taliban closed that ministry, and replaced it with their ministry which is called the ministry for promotion of Virtue And Prevention of vice. The protests came after concerns were raised about girls being allowed to attend secondary school. Translator you cannot suppress The Voice of afghan women by keeping girls at home and restricting them, as well as by not allowing them to go to school. You cannot suppress The Voice of afghanistans women. Well, the taliban have claimed they will not rule as they did during the 90s but they have done little else to calm fears that women will be denied basic freedoms or be shut out of jobs and schools.

To help estimate a number. Many times throughout american history the question of how many jellybeans are in a jar has been a racist tool of oppression.

And The Simpsons i think in some senses was inspired by not necessarily hatred of television, but a distrust of a lot of the ways in which television was talking to us. Tv respects me. It laughs with me. Not at me. Youre stupid. Doh i think the Sitcoms Of The 80s were such a warm, safe, humor. I love you guys. The kids, they listen to the Rap Music which gives them the brain damage. And i think there was a real yearning for another type of humor. We were able to Spoof Fatherhood what a bad father. Which at the time, and i stress at the time, was Bill Cosby as the shining example. Did you ever know that youre My Hero the stuff they got away with because its a cartoon. The father strangling the child. Why you little we are going to k
Flights. This is all part of an allofgovernment effort. Not only are we obtaining resources from the department of defense, but we brought in a person from the Department Of Health And Human Services to address the medical needs of anyone who needs that type of attention. Not only do we rely on the resources and capabilities of the department of homeland security, but we look across the federal government and in partnership with Civil Society to see what resources and capabilities we can bring to bear to meet the challenge, and that is indeed what we are doing here. And how can you be assured that when they go back theyre not dealing with very difficult conditions . Much more difficult than what theyre dealing with right now . Why not allow them to come into the country . So let me take both those questions, jim. Were working very closely with the government of haiti to ensure that the Individuals Return is accomplished as safely and humanely as possible. We are working with the Depart
