Supporters in these. Yeah. Hundreds gather outside of funds, managing based condemning what they called funding interference. The 1st delivery of food aid arrives in west off florida is the conflict. And so don enters its 4 months and supporters of an assassinated ecuadorian president ial candidate together to pay tribute in the capital keeps the were going to begin in hawaii with the search continues for hundreds of people missing off to devastating wildfires ripped through the island of bali at least 55 people have been killed. Officials say that number could rise. The fast moving places are still burning in 3 places to arranging and central and southern parts of the island. Hundreds of buildings have been turned to ash, including a historic tavern advise, were fueled by dry vegetation and find by winds, and product and door. State officials have called the largest Natural Disaster in hawaii as history. Some survivors say theyve lost everything. This is going to go on for a while. This is gonna take years, years to recover and it just breaks my heart. Thats all the history from back in the waiting days. The 1800 us ashton does. This is our 1st time coming back and like actually knowing that our house for now we havent really known anything for the last couple of days because theres no information coming through. We have, since we have no power, no cell service, no. Why fi were getting fits from car radio, but nobody really knows until they can make it in here, whether their houses are standing or not. No, the question on your mind is when can i get back to my home . Just as soon as we can try to provide a certainty that we have recovered those that have perished. And thats really our, our goal right now. Were hoping to find people that might just be injured a lot of time as fast as the incident. So were still in that phase. From on this were going to go to see how the times that hes dining by for us and cali on the affected island of bali and how i have youve arrived on the island just in the last few hours or so. What have you been seeing is youve been after youve arrived toms house and sleeping. We all bought some of the people from our, from authorities to pick up a sponsor back on the table top and they are restricted to behind on the much the fact tabitha. See you can see that again, rest and becoming a bit of as far as the power talk communication. So phone Cell Phone Service is not safe at an efficient. They are still trying to find this thing that we are told some 1000 people were missing as this was the 1st day, which i would love to immediately expect the west. And we see that that number could be just people who havent been able to get in touch. They havent nicole centralized, centralized numbers. But when you look at the language of the officials are using with going to try all very best the bass said to identify those who perished, a match the box with their families. You got a sense of what the alluding to that they think that a lot of human remains, that child human remains recycled. Their houses to discover identified finding the 1st place, especially as teams been broken from california to i used to well size them down about re now on the ground because of adults of enrolls and to, to try and find human remains. So i think thats another reason why they, they want this, the average me, rosalie, im touched right now. I should have, we can hear some of the, the, the wins as youre talking to is there. And we were saying before that part of the problem has been that the flames have been moving so fast because theyve been funded by the wind. Some how to can dora this seems to have caught the whole island by surprise. Is that, was there anything that they could have done to prepare for this of the . Yeah, move start about the fence of desolation and grief. Im sure it could be a new one, which is what happened. The 1st question is all the big ones, because in the in bodies own pilots assessment reports from 2020, they said this is an area that will be particularly susceptible to well, 5, particularly dangerous to keep the local populations that because a lot of other folks that have causal, dont speak english, and may not even be able to hear warnings. But the point is hawaii as often boasted about having the largest. Well, the cool, hows the Public Safety warming system in the world series, all of speakers around the items, despite the sirens and warnings in the event of some sort of Natural Disaster. Because how are you surprised about truth . Because also should all result quakes. Volcanoes, you have a list, the list goes on, it did not go off, theres no evidence about the system was used. Instead, we think authorities to be used. Those emergency messages, youve got on your cell phones and then radio and tv messages. The Communication System has been knocked out, or if youre interested, this is elizabeth and updated with a bit of other people. What able to get those, those messages, not very far the same, but you know, theyve been looking into all of that, but theyre all segments have happened so quickly but comfortable these, this virus is that most part of the reason is as you say, the winds up by this point on, on tuesday, but its still happening that High Pressure system to the north. We have the low pressure system, hundreds of miles that you to the, to the south with the higher come back. But that was enough to actually still be drawing even more moisture out of the ads. But yeah, yeah, much drive the fucking in. Theres windows from the High Pressure system as well. Were caught in the middle officers waiting to come here. I can see how strongly east to west winds are here. Im not sure they blurred directly to that Mountain Range behind me as they hit the Mountain Range favorite williams accelerate. So i got even dry the get even haul. So im on the other side. Its especially scrubbing cold. First thing of the pos thats for a certain drought conditions. Thats the most tangible asset, the prime of change, which, which contributed to this, the drop conditions that we have. So one says ignition you got them from that which will not be burned even further down the hillside towards the top. We still vendor what by point of addition was that speculation it could be a bound paul line is resort in california by one step, but the far hips, the Town Historic of 1718. 00. On the 18th century town, 1819th century town wouldnt structures, it becomes an album. Fireball firestone, effectively much west of the world. Wheres much quicker vegetables .

Tito is your laughter campaign and then on wednesday the 6th suspects of being charged. The governments declared a state of emergency and since the election is going to go ahead as planned in 2 weeks it oh i see. See thats how my father was. He always told me, my only protection is that im not afraid to. So if something has to happen, it will happen. My father never wear a helmet or anything. So, when i live in america, editor lives in humans outside of the cemetery for another view, ever since i was just joining us from the ecuadorian capital at kato, thank you very much and deed for being with us. Its a solemn occasion for friends and families, and supporters, but another indication of the crime that seems to have a hold in ecuador. Absolutely. We are right outside the chapel. You can probably see people still going in the meet, the sense shows, uh task and was just broad and hes going to be coordinated here shortly after the service as part from the family. There are a small number of his closest supporters from the both parties hall to say the outrage. Not only by his death put by they what they called the lack of security provided by the current government for the candidates who apparently had a long list of assassination threats against him over the past few months. But this is, as you say, very much in indication of just how extreme the crime and the murder rate in this country, it has as escalated that we are seeing now people being killed, not people being in the distortion murders every single day this. Um, its in the state of emergency that was just put in place now following the centers. Murder is become a normal thing here and happens almost once a month somewhere in the country, either this in the capital people or in the economic capital. Why . Yeah, so. Ringback that is going to be clear. Ready what are the main challenges of whoever governs this country . Next, we are after all, in a, in a political president ial campaign at this moment. And i wanted to ask you about that because the government, of course, is saying that the i put the elections on going to go ahead in 2 weeks time. This one would imagine is going to have some sort of effect on the elections. Are you seeing any evidence of what kind of impact it might be having we are hearing from whats happening is that this, this assassination is being used politically. There is still no firm indication as to what was behind it, what the real motive was. But his, the opponents of the candidate that is leading with a, with a double digit advantage in the polls are saying that this is the work of her Political Party, of the, of the former president ref, i go to a, a hold of she represents who is now in exile that they are the ones who did this. So it could shift a little bit. The results of the selection in favor of the more conservative candidates and whoever replaces the non the vi sense, which has not been made public yet. But apparently his Political Party will put someone on the ballot to replace him so this could definitely disrupt the results of that election was more certainly make it more difficult for the left when the opposition to when i lived in america, editor this here near my c as always, thank you very much.

What is it about hip hop that has captivated audiences around the world . The way, you know, hip hop is a global phenomena one because it comes from is rooted in black American Music and culture and allows me the musical for all think come from from black folks in america. And it allows people to speak. I mean, imagine the dance everybody dances and wrap everybody talks. And so at one point it was was, was the voice of the voiceless. And now it becomes such an integral part of artistic expression that ive seen people wrapping 50 countries around the world. And everybody is just drawn to it. Were talking about the 50th anniversary and to some degree that makes it sound like something that is open and done with that. It hasnt moved on to us about how hip hop has developed and, and expand and, and changed over the last 50 years. Of hip hop has developed in the sense that there been different sub genres in music that have happened. The dance has expanded in that there are different dance forms that you pop in corporate rates. Now you can see traditional dance forms from south america are from efforts are incorporated. Where is one of the roots of hip hop dance and i know invalid answer. The synagogue that they have their own version, if you copy of the rap folds. What happened in every musical form i watch freestyle with a classroom or band, a chinese orchestra of what from haiti, plains highlight music, so confusing by allowing music. And its accessible to everyone as long as you can for you the be a, you could not your head it is there for you. You know, its a multi 1000000000. 00 industry. And as weve seen in so many of the musical genres, sometimes that that can take the heart and soul, i would have a particular style of music. Is it called at risk of that . And if its not, how does, how does it change . You know, the hip hop is at risk of that you, bob is at risk of that right now. You listen to tv. If you listen to radio, theres a lot of folks who are seeking something deeper, something with more success substance, something with more. So one of the things women complain about is that theres not that whats wrong with the women in the mainstream is just that theres no balance, right . Theres consciously about these backpackers gave up. This is hip hop and there are, theres hip hop for children near all this gospel, hip hop. Theres was no hip hop and what we need to see in the main stream when were talking about the music itself, is more balance of it. And what im hoping in the future is that we get to access it.
