Human rights watch joins us from walks forward in the u. K. Thanks for your time. But its not getting any. Reports. Well yes theres a lot of the violence in south africa continues to escalate and it comes in waves. Particularly because it is never been resolved they have been no Accountability Police it would take an action to conduct with those who committed the act uses so we continue to hear these problems in the political leaders in south africa also in some cases. It will be violence it is not been dealing with decisively to date. I mean it sounds like a very complicated issue we talk about this ever time theres an incentive now what youve got is the root cause of all this hate against especially other african migrants in south africa well their root causes relates to competition for resources. Over to an informal settlements but also a tree lit to. Mount political leaders to scapegoat in blame foreign nationals for the problems and for lack of Service Delivery insides of the africa which is been buttressed by the Police Looking the other way the police not investigating terribly ensuring successful. Prosecutions and convictions so when people are not punished for these criminal out they then. Boarded to repeat under conditions of impunity and now building out from the point you just made because thats what your report suggests that those suspected of bottom he can fire and as often quickly released and never prosecuted so what is the governments role in all of this. Well the government has a responsibility to. Investigate it is police to maintain law and order in to ensure that there is no violence in the government is dictated when that is fully believed he has not carried it out fully so in a sense you could say the institutionalised in a 4 year because when you look to the almost 50 minutes of africa he is not focused one minute in a 1000000 will instead it is targeted for International Forest for deportations and this is true we see in the nationalist kin regularities there are tens of africa has not been working effectively so they used lot that the government can do use here is since last year in National Action plan to combine to the 4 b.

Show a look at the movie antebellum coming up and later on the show punks and poverty pictures of east germany the countrys dictatorship didnt want you to see a look back on the work of photographer how the white house about. Welcome to arts and culture were starting off the show with a look at ante bellum the new revenge horror movie about racism and slavery in the United States by debut directors bush and rents its the 1st lead role for singer actress Jenelle Monet she plays a 21st century woman whose biggest concerns are her yoga regime and her vegan diet but then something awful happens. There on the campaign is a black woman who has a. Brain on the future. But there are people who want to take it all away from her who are you were. Kidnapped veronica wakes up in a version of a slave plantation of old and and americas racist past is still very much with us. Theres so much distraction so much distraction that we have to keep reminding people that this happened if we if we think again. Were kidding ourselves it absolutely. So we have to tell the truth i think this film is going to be triggering for. That from the produces of global hit get out and she belum uses the central message that being black in america is like living in a horror movie and she fell and had a socially distance jivin premiere in los angeles the movie itself is being released online. Ok too. Whatever you do in iraq it. Just. Came from before he changed the world that is not possible for me. In have 1st leading role singing turned actress Jenelle Monet hopes to have an impact beyond the box office rule change requires recruiting. You know when a proven. Change. Its going to take media its going to take films and its that music art reminder that we have to protect black lines and in particular we have to pretend were. Right here and work. Antebellum and be navy with grand social ambitions. God did over use film expert scott roxboro with me now scott sir answered elam this looks like a seriously work horror movie yeah i can see call that i mean its basically a big horror movie but its got a really Strong Political subtext i mean essentially some taxes that americas original sin of slavery has not gone away but is buried underneath like a like a demon waiting to rain to spring up and wreck havoc right i know one of the producers on this movie has the same her produced jordan peoples movie get out a few years back different story want to really kind of the same themes it works like yeah i think so i mean this is almost a new subject honor of black horror films with social messages which i think people really invented with with with get out and if you member that movie was a black guy who has a white girlfriend and he finds out that his girlfriend supposedly nice white family are secretly slaving black people thats not so nice the the metaphor there is of course underlying racism of supposedly liberal all white people. Feel that a similar thing with his 2nd movie which came out last year called us and they have a very middle class black family and then theyre sort of invaded by a group of double gang which will just like them black people who want to take the life that they have here or the metaphor is the Class Division between black people. With those fields when they work these sort of black or movies theyre great because theyre great horror. Films and they also are really socially relevant and they spark a debate i think particularly right now they reflect the debates that were having in politics and even on the streets of america. Lets talk a little bit about gentleman weve been watching her for years now shes a leading lady yeah exactly i mean norah singer right were young a number of years ago as an actress she really came on the radar for me with the Hidden Figures a few years ago where she plays an engineer who starts to work for nasa is a key figure in the in windows on the 1006 the moon landings and there i mean she just survives off the screen shes really phenomenal since then shes mainly done supporting roles i mean she had a small role in in the moonlight the last 20 years here is a good value half a nominal and and shes going to be a new film of the glorious alongside alicia condor and Julianna Moore but again this film is the 1st leading role i dont think im going to just move i think shes probably the best thing in it but we wouldnt have not seen the end of her not the end of her as a leading lady i mean shes a phenomenal actress a double threat actress singer i think shes going to be have a huge huge future ahead of her i know youre going to be talking about her much more in the years to come thanks scar arcs for.
