Theres the headlines up front coming up next. When i think of my career i think of potential when i think of potential i think for what it is not i think of young people who need to do to get into the i want something that they come to. Tell me its impossible i think the challenge. Is a challenge theyre going to the. Money is being dismissed and this is my job. My nigeria on aljazeera. Welcome back to front im Richelle Carey today ill talk to the journalist who was suspended from the u. S. Sports network e. S. P. N. For her outspoken political views including calling donald trump a white supremacist ill ask her how she feels now that the u. S. President has refused on Live Television to condemn White Supremacy this weeks headlines are jamail hill. Jamelle hill thank you so much for joining me on front im going to take you back to 2017 right you were at the center of a National Firestorm because you tweeted that donald trump the president of the United States was a white supremacist right so White House Press secretary said you should be fired your employer e. S. P. N. Rebuke you you did not back down you will even further you eventually Police Tweeted rather some political things about a very popular owner of an American Football Team at that point and set it up and they suspended you what was that lake that you know youre getting all of these attacks from the president himself from the white house what was that like it was a little crazy because i would be totally on is i thought. Donald trump was a white supremacist was essentially telling you what it was like i thought we kind of all agree that this was the case particularly after charlottesville and he made the remark about very fine people being on both sides equating white supremacist to people fighting against White Supremacy and racism and so believe it or not i actually didnt expect to get in trouble for that at all and i think maybe sometimes ignorance is bliss had i thought about what might the possible ramifications i may not have tweeted it but you know nevertheless im glad that i did. Not please the fact that i was right just just a few weeks ago in the 1st president ial debate donald trump walked away from the opportunity the challenge to to tell White Supremacists to back down he did not so since this time in these last 3 years the right many other people that have called president on a trump a white supremacist do you feel validated in some way i actually dont i have the opposite feeling i feel frankly very sad about this and kind of heartbroken because i dont want to be right about this i wish i was that wrong i wish that what i said that a few years you know now were looking in hindsight that in 2020 wed be saying like look how wrong that prediction was look how wrong you were and you were just the attack this man and he turned out to be Everything Different from what you said but unfortunately hes only prove to me more right every single day and more people have seen it i mean america does not deserve to have a White Supremacy as president they dont mean we dont i mean i live in this country too i have to live under his authority so no i dont feel validation at all i feel just sad and heartbroken as i said and its unfortunate that the American People are put in this position to have to be subjected to this kind of language that he uses on a on a frequent basis and to know that we have a president that struggles struggles to denounce something as basic and as awful and evil as White Supremacy do you find it i. That this white house attack you for your use of words when this is a white house that has called people animals they have told 3 American Congress women of color to go back to where they came from how do you reconcile the fact that theyre mad a jew about words you use but they use really harsh rhetoric against people all the time unfortunately with this administration this is just how they operate this is how they do business is that they want to police and cancel everybody else but theyre for ever lecturing people about the awfulness of cancel culture and about how they speak to each other to refer to Vice President ial nominee common errors as a monster or not even a monster this monster as if shes a dehumanize thing to call Maxine Waters the congresswoman to question her i. Q. It seems that i when women of color he keeps coming back to certain trucks that are racists and unacceptable and it exposes further just how he really feels about people i mean if you saying this about women who are in a position of authority and leadership what is he saying about the average black person that he comes in contact with if there is one it just is a scary notion to contemplate since you left and its aims that many of the on air talent are much more outspoken and the social media around on air saying things that are similar to what you said do is that correct i mean are we right that it seems that the environment has changed there and that e. S. P. N. Is is not just sticking to sports as some people say you know i think your assessment is accurate i mean theyre talking about social justice issues frequently if not you know frequently may not even be the word i think is probably daily and when youre in sports is almost your job to distract people from some of the things that are happening in Current Events and some of the atrocities and going through a pandemic like its church. That provide a sense of relief to the audience that is watching you but its hard for you to manage because there were days certainly after donald trump was elected and after charlottesville now after a number of other incidents where i went in to work and i just didnt feel like talking about it was all in the a. F. C. East but i didnt care because i have being subjected to all these other things that are happening i mean yes im a journalist yes i work at e. S. P. N. But im also a black woman in america and that is coming before all of those other things and so im just happy that my colleagues are able to discuss these issues openly hopefully without fear of retribution or being you know policed internally is there the difference that there needs to be more diversity in the newsroom so that you feel like you can say what you need to say without fear of retribution without being accused of having a bias because of your race i think e. S. P. N. Has the same blind spot in issues that a lot of Media Outlets have still overwhelmingly white still a lot of people making the content decisions are white and because of that there is a lack of sensibility that is there is that just about r. C. Is that inclusion too so that there is not you know i couldnt help but notice that a lot of these companies were putting out these very flowery print statements about Racial Inclusion and suddenly saying black clouds matter and they considered it occurs where 4 years ago thats all great thats good however what does your organizational chart look like if your organizational chart does not reflect those 3 statements you are putting out that youve got some work to do and hopefully this moment has made a lot of these Decision Makers and corporations understand that they have got to get serious about disrupting dismantling and changing the inside of their organization let me ask you about that specifically what youre talking about that now you know its fine to have all these messages they social justice messages it all the leaks not just the n. B. A. Were going to come back to the n. B. A. But all the links including the n. F. L. But the n. F. L. Is also buffet mylene where collin kaplan it was for. Donnelly a star quarterback does not have a job has not had a job since 2016 when he chose to kneel during the National Anthem as a protest against Racial Injustice and police for talent how do you reconcile the fact that the n. F. L. Now you know kind of gives a green light to their players to talk about social justice but collin kaplan extols doesnt have a job is that it is a type of performative activism definitely you cant reconcile it because no matter what they do no matter what they say they will not be able to atone for that injustice as long as he doesnt have a job in the n. F. L. And i doubt he ever gets one they wont be able to be taken seriously at least not by me i cant speak for everybody obviously but i consider what theyre doing to be performative as you said theyre doing this because this is where the countrys sensibilities are the only thing that change between now and last n. F. L. Season is that Public Opinion shifted what change was george floyd what change was a modern change was Briana Taylor and that they were no longer able to escape what was happening in this country and the players were demanding to be heard but kind of kept it was their glowing example about what can happen to you when you speak out a little too much when you make too many people a little bit too uncomfortable and its not just gonna happen either that they have to its own for if youre putting out these statements about black lives matter naturalistic whats happening inside your organization right now we have a situation where there are 2 black general managers in the n. F. L. They do not have a majority black owner and theyve never had one they have one black Team President 1st one in n. F. L. History they have 3 black coaches these are embarrassing statistics you cant talk about White Supremacy or black labs matter when they dont even matter in your own league so as far as im concerned all of what the n. F. L. Is doing wow i guess its well intentioned its also something i cant take very seriously because their actions have spoken ways. Too loud for me to actually Pay Attention to their words ok lets talk about the election joe biden is the democratic nominee obviously you had some critique some criticisms of him during the democratic primary issue said that at least some of his support was rooted in this is a quote fear that white folks wont vote for anyone else on that stage of course a reference to the fact that there are an extremely diverse array of Democratic Candidates and youre also critical of the 1904 crime bill of which he played a large part in which and carson rated millions of African Americans and he won the democratic nomination so how do you reconcile those criticisms you had with you now supporting him so the reason i thought i think the primary is the appropriate time where you bring up all the issues you have with any potential president ial nominee but joe biden was able to get to the front of the line because we also have to remember that a lot of people especially a lot of black people were very pragmatic voters despite the fact that they keep getting painted as liberals it meant something to them that joe biden was 2nd in command to the 1st black president that he was there at the service of the 1st black president and i think i underestimated what that meant particularly to older black people who are such a reliable voting bloc in the democratic senator let me jump in just a 2nd because i want to get to that reliable voting bloc i mean interrupt you but i think thats key because africanamericans are reliable voting bloc does the Democratic Party go with them more oh no question about it because let me supporting job im it joe biden is not my. You know completely blind support of the Democratic Party as a whole i mean i think they have done a huge disservice to black voters theyre still doing a huge disservice to black voters this is not something that is past tense however agenda items that are specific for black america that will help black america will be respectful and genuinely heard. Which joe biden and camila hares i really do believe that and so you know once the primary has and me bringing up joe biden with the crime bill by the way that was in relationship to how i felt like it was really unfair that comolli hairs was somehow being made the face of mass incarceration by a lot of people in our community when they do the road the crime bill is right next door on the same state and that getting that same smoke and to your point yes shes a former prosecutor she has been criticized by many on the left for being not tough enough on police and and too tough on some defendants do you agree with that criticism and i get your point youre comparing and contrasting it to the way she got criticism for for her record which is fair but compared to the type of criticism that joe biden got you know i will say theres a i think its fair to look at her record the best word that i would come up with it is that i think she had some opportunities that she took advantage of while being eternity attorney general and certainly by being a prosecutor and there were some missed moments for sure but this idea that common here is single handedly like that every black managerial is just wrong and its been debunked many times and i just find it interesting that when she was debating against mike pence that he wanted to point out her record. Of incarcerating black men when he moments before that said that there was no systemic racism in the criminal Justice System so which one is it is it only systemic racism when its a black woman that just so happens to be at that point i think she was the 1st attorney general in the 1st black attorney general in california history so you use it conveniently for that but not you know when you actually have to address this issue within your own administration of talk about common law that thats going to be our final note specifically a black woman being on the ticket just what do you think that that imagery means for for black boys and girls and white boys and girls i think is really significant but i focus for the moment on black women because i am a black. I think whats significant about it especially is that without ever having had a comma a conversational couple of years and ive been fortunate enough to have a few twitter is that you are ready know what she went through to get there and you know what that was like and more importantly what i liked about seeing her on this ticket and why significant for me is that she makes no apologies for seizing her power and a lot of time women but in particular black women we are put in a position where we have to defend our ambition defend seizing our power and she has always carried herself in a way that shes not going to apologize for being great you know when that idea surface that she wouldnt be the Vice President ial nominee because she was too ambitious it was really a conversation that had such broad implications its something that women face all the time where our ambition is used against us where its not the case from in their ambition is highlighted is considered to be a celebrate tillery trait so its just significant to see her there for what it means that just for black women not just what it means you know for multicultural women period now just what it means for historically black colleges and shes a proud graduate of howard but i think it embodies much like it will barack obama the best of what this nation can be eloquently said about multicultural we absolutely would be remiss if we did not acknowledge that her mother was an Indian American youre absolutely right and thats going to be the final blow chameli hill thank you for joining us here on out front always a pleasure thank you really appreciate that and if you. American voters are less than 2 weeks away from what could be the most important election of their lives its a decision that will profoundly alter not only life in the u. S. But also the lives of those around the world for palestinians especially there is hope that if prompt loses abidin ministration would reopen the door to. A pathway to peace or at least negotiations but is biden really that different from trump when it comes to the Israeli Palestinian conflict it doesnt even matter who is in the White House Joining me to debate this are goldenberg Foreign Policy and defense analyst and former chief of staff to the special envoy for Israeli Palestinian negotiations at the u. S. State department or khalidi ever its a professor of modern arab studies at Columbia University he was also an advisor to the palestinian delegation to the majority in washington arab israeli peace negotiations in the 1990 s. Thank you both for joining me here in the arena i appreciate it a lot im going to start with you so just the other week the palestinian Prime Minister mohammad to tie it when talking about the upcoming u. S. Elections that if things are going to change in the United States i think this will reflect itself directly on the palestinian israeli relationship and it will reflect itself also on the bilateral palestinian american relationship lodge you think the Prime Minister is right when he thing actually change you know well i think yes you know maybe not as much as some people would like but i think youre going to see a pretty significant change and then the trumpet ministration has really just entirely torn down the relationship with the palestinians. Basically since the u. S. Decided to move the embassy to jerusalem there really hasnt been a relationship between across the us already in the United States and so i think wed expect to see these buttons talked about you know reopening the p. L. O. Mission in washington reopening the u. S. Consulate in jerusalem that really acts as a as a embassy to the palestinians restarting assistance to unroot the restarting assistance the palestinians i think all of those are included moments on where things have been for the past 4 years or do you agree or think it will be a mercy to not have to deal with the trumpet a strange for. Orse United States and also the palestinians of the punitive indicative nasty narrow minded tactics of that administration is if the palestinians reach the reached a new low and those things will undoubtedly change as it has just described but i think that looking for fundamental change in the american approach is something that were going to continue to have to do even after if a Vice President biden is elected United States is going to have to completely change a lot of basic things if were going to move towards peace and up towards another meaningless process you have to have somebody say occupation is illegal it has to be ended unconditionally you have to have somebody saying settlements are illegal and they will have to be removed you have to have somebody saying the palestinians have an absolute right to selfdetermination irrespective of restrictive conditions that israel might want to impose so long can you see the Biden Administration if there were one to do any of those types of things i mean is it really fair for anyone to label him that honest broker because specifically i mean he has said that he will not move the embassy back to tell of even though he thought it was a bad movie called it for of lists and shortsighted he is a selfproclaimed zionist he has called the u. S. Israeli relationship ironclad and hes completely ruled out the possibility of withdrawing any type of aid from israel to get them to change anything that they do so the types of things that rashid is talking about is there reason to think that by the ministration would would entertain any of the things he just said i dont know i dont speak for them i would say though the. My take is look i mean the u. S. Has had a long strong relationship with israel i dont think you expect it to fundamentally change im not sure that the u. S. Role in the Peace Process ever been one of even broker and im not sure thats exactly what even the palestinian leadership wants what the palestinian leadership wants as an effective broker and ideas that the u. S. Relationship with israel helps to be an effective broker now the reality is thats failed in the. Yes and just rather than going back into a meaningless process again which i would actually advocate against and i dont think that the israeli leadership as it is right now is ready for it i dont think the palestinian leadership and as ready as it is right now so instead i would argue for trying to actually do meaningful substantive things on the ground that include freedom prosperity and security for everyone and that doesnt mean taking a hard line on settlements and trying to discourage settlements it means there are a lot of things you can do theres also things the palestinians need to do in terms of their own governance in terms of trying to get a unified government again in elections and more Responsive Government so theres so much that can be focused on not just quote unquote economic peace which has been tried before the real steps on the ground short of just rushing everybody back into a negotiation that i think will be much more constructive or she will talk about the settlements a little bit more for a moment even in the midst of this coronavirus pandemic israel has continued to approve new settlements and yes this month the Israeli Government actually gave the green light to the construction of 2500 new Housing Units what are your thoughts i see are skeptical to think that the by demonstration would do anything about that well i think i think you have to have a complete not only change in rhetoric where settlements are described as illegal and where occupation is described as an unbigoted evil that has to be ended i think you have to have a change in implementation are you going to have to have some kind of sanctions or have that some kind of pressure you have to tell the israelis american money cannot be used to build settlements United States will protect you in the Security Council if you do this that the other and i hope that an american would do this these are things that the American People want the building of settlements is something that takes place the largest with american money not government money but money thats tax free the bottom astrachan could have the treasury stop people who are building settlements from getting american tax free dollars so that whether it is that sanctions on the postings no i think that in fact the pie. Things are being sanctioned by the u. S. Government by its all our. Their their lead to be stolen and and israeli only supplements built in their place with american taxpayer dollars so thats an example of what i would hope the kind of thing that might happen i really think that there are things that are that is possible to say in the American Public space that you couldnt say 10 years ago. And i think that the by demonstration could i dont know that well i think what happened with the platform is an indication of the limits on their thinking there are things that they could do which i would hope they will im not sure that they will ok so weve had this discussion about what could change or will or wont change be added by the ministration or trumpet ministration but at the end of the day does it really matter arent there just entrenched issues that are more about us and stick to shins regardless of who actually ends up in the white house a lot of your thoughts on that i mean i think what matters more is that theres entrenched israeli and palestinian institutions and views yes the u. S. Has a role to play and we have traditionally been you know the central mediator and actually i would argue that our position has traditionally been to come in and just elbow everybody else out write me like thats kind of what we do and rather than doing that i think we need to be part of a process and i think we do need to be more inclusive and bring in other International Actors and other players who have an interest in the role and so i think we can do all of that but we also have you know 2 leaders and p. B. And its and you and Mahmoud Abbas were both incredibly risk averse you dont trust or like each other at home who are going to Work Together you have an israeli politics that is moving increasingly to the rate and has been stuck in like 4 separate elections over the past 2 years or 3 or 4 i lose count you have palestinian politics that is entirely divided im hasnt had an election in 15 years to be fought off with the mosque so little i think there are and you have societies that are moving in opposite directions and increasingly dont even track with each other so so look there are definitely problems in american power. See in things that the u. S. Is a fix and you better lets also be clear there are only the biggest problems in both right now are with you know leadership in israel and the leadership in palestine those are also huge problems so you need to kind of frankly you need new leadership in our 3 sides if youre going to have any chance of making any progress and so was she what about that a lot is making the point that he thinks there needs to be new leadership on pretty much all sides bit but the question remains if you can move all these pieces and do you think the issue is bigger then jess that because some of these things are deeply systemic and entrenched in these institutions and all in all 3 groups you know i think thats a thats a good point i think that certainly in the United States there are a set of attitudes among the Foreign Policy professionals who pay no attention to poverty and who have a set of assumptions some of which i think are false and which are part of the problem. As our own david miller said the United States has acted as israels lawyer i think thats a problem i think that responding to a certain very vocal set of attitudes in american Public Opinion which no longer i think represent what Many Americans feel about israel and the palestinians as well as the United States to basically disqualify itself from i think is that leader and i certainly agree that theres a need for change leadership house things i mean these people have been there as as as john said since that that the 2006 election. Because of the dire nature of the Current Situation the policies are being forced to finally do the palestinian factions that dominate the government and the moma and the demonstration are being forced to do what they should have long ago done which is trying to come up with a composition to reunify the passing movement and figure out what their strategy is that i fought the palestinian leadership or that the lack of policy lack of Strategic Vision among palestinian leadership for that as far as israel is concerned. Yes they obviously need new leadership and sooner or later theyre going to get it i would guess that changing the United States might persist but it might not ok well it all remains to be seen goldberg thank you very much for this discussion and that is our show up probably back next week. The 1st reaction was shock hush hush across the u. S. Meat packing some coverage 19 hot spots these are people being treated as togs on a machine rather than actually being cared for for clients investigates with a Corporate America thats put profit before the lives of its workers they care more about pieces of meat going in the tray then they care about their team members virus on the poultry line on aljazeera one day i might be covering politics as usual and the next time i get up micro tossing from serbia into hungry whats most important to me is talking to people understanding what they are going through so that i can convey the headlines in the most human way possible. Here and i just see it or we believe everyone has a story worth hearing. Sue down there wanted to do a deal and that was it particularly nice because theyve essentially better war with israel. Donald trump announces a u. S. Brokered deal for sudan and israel to normalize relations palestinians call it a new step in the fact. That im how the more he had seen and this is out to see
