For more were joined by Georgia State lawmaker erika thomas and former Georgia State lawmaker dee Hawkins Hagler. Thank you so much for joining me today d. A lot of unrest it doesnt look like its going anywhere lets start with you Many Companies are coming out with the white text on a black background showing support for this racial inequality amazon was one of them they tweeted out the following on sunday they may say they stand in solidarity with the black community but the ecommerce giant has 0 black executives they also have a secret deal with more than 400. 00 Police Departments there with Home Security brand ring that essentially allows Law Enforcement officials to access a portal asking owners to provide footage thats relevant to a criminal investigation not to mention they did fire an africanamerican last month a warehouse worker who reported Health Concerns over the chrono virus is about a bit hypocritical. Thank you for having us today so yes i think the amazon has to rise to the occasion they not only have to talk the talk with they have to walk the walk it is very disingenuous to say that you are in the fight against racial oppression or suppression or equality and then you only have very minimal people in the leadership in your company but amazon however they have none of them really Senior Management so they have to do a better job with that so amazon i see even though they did put out a statement which is more than most companies do they still have a lot of work to do especially when africanamericans use amazon and presumes levels because im one of those people who sit at home as use amazon specially doing coke with my team because i didnt have anything else to do but to shop and although i think i think amazon has to do a better job with their well and they definitely need to come forward and raise their standards with obsolete erica prior to the pandemic minority communities that were doing better economically this was compared to previous years but they were still struggling to see significant gains and Household Income savings and even credit worthiness there is that theyve been more likely to hold many office or many of the public facing jobs as well that are on hold now due to the coronavirus will occur pandemic in this Political Climate is it just going to further illustrate this current divide that were seeing or world will we see some sort of shift where public facing workers begin to to seek other forms of remote work. Youre so right about those numbers and of course the africanamericans are experiencing larger numbers that are at risk higher jobs that are at risk to this pandemic and i dont think that as of right now or in the near future that were seeing any of those numbers start to go down i mean look at what is going on in the last couple of days we went from a pandemic to pandemonium and it has shallow shined a light that 40 percent africanamericans are less. Likely to own a home you know even in our in where we live now in atlanta the average Household Income for a White American is over 84000 and the average Household Income for an African American is 26000. 00 and so we have to make sure that with these protesters and with us standing out and letting our voices be heard that we are screaming these numbers from the right rooftops and people need to get upset and angry so that we can change this because in till we change structural inequality there will still be riots for years to come and i believe this is a an issue that the both sides both the black community and the White Community and you know a lot of other communities are part of that see this this criminal Justice Reform a much needed erica were all in this together has become a popular slogan during the pandemic however we can all say were on different boats here were all experiencing this very differently a new report by the Economic Policy institute on Race Ethnicity and the economy showed the black Community Like you said experiences some of the highest rates of unemployment yet they also make up most of these front line workers that consist of one in 6 this is a pretty complex issue were looking at here but how did we get to this point and what should happen moving forward. Well just like you said we are the ones that are on the front lines and with that being said we are there pay needs to show that it needs to reflect that these africanamericans are on different lives and maybe that would help with some of these inequalities i mean if theyre going to risk their lives to make sure that they are Grocery Store workers that theyre firefighters that there are people that are making sure that we get what we need to in this pandemic then we need to show that and how do we show that by paying them what they deserve another reason why so many of them are are getting sick now the black Unemployment Rate was 5. 8 percent in february thats near a 50 year low but its still higher than the white Unemployment Rate its now after the pandemic at 16. 7 percent this is compared to the white Unemployment Rate at 14. 2 percent what needs to change here well maybe things need to change 1st of all lets go back one step one step back the reason why many africanamericans take Service Related jobs is because they have not been afforded the same opportunities as many. As it relates to education and funding for school and so that almost all of them towns put africanamericans in positions where the only job they have to take of those in the Service Industry then lets look at unemployment many africanamericans dont have the luxury of working for jobs when theyre able to work from home i mean thats a disparity even in that in the south because many of the people who have the education who are the have the wherewithal of the connections theyre able to work from home because of the type of jobs that they have and so that only leaves those who are service workers. On the front line to be able to get covered nights or to be able have to go we are lose your job because the type of job that you have does not afford you the opportunity to work from home but there is so much that we have to talk about it regards to Racial Disparities in income disparity that just look at it from the beginning of time many black people from the time they brought to this country work for free you have free slave labor and we have never leveled the playing. And so when you want somebody to start all from not even ground 0 but mega to 20 negative 30 it is very hard to overcome but it takes generation after generation numerous generations to try to over. To overcome that disparity and we have were nowhere close with the policies that we currently have here in that school in america its been decades of seeing the same thing over and over again i do want to get one more question erica i want to show you some figures here you mentioned the some of the wages and the wage gap now black families in liquid assets have much more much less the white families and 20000 median Household Income for white households 70 percent higher than for black households look at those numbers 70642 versus 41062 what are some of the biggest causes of this divide we have about a minute left. Again just like the honorable the doc is he said we are start starting from the ground in negative 0 and so with that being said we have to hole sir ourselves just to even be able to get some of these jobs some of these higher c. E. O. Jobs in the Senior Management jobs and so i would definitely say is that is starts even from the education in these black communities that is being given to us and so we have to make sure that our Education System in the black communities is just as well as when you turn on the other side of the town in these White Communities and thats where it starts if we have the best of the best in education then we we can we can go to the next and mc and make sure that we have the best jobs but it starts from the education level absolutely the education level the resources that are provided to both. Communities as well so hopefully we see some change its taken too long and not not enough change has happened or changes happened were looking for that change and hopefully these these peaceful protests can call for that Hawkins Hagler and erica thomas thank you so much for making time for us today thank you for having us here. Time now for a quick break but stay here because when we return investors often buy a gold for safe keeping during times of recession and unaddressed but well tell you why so many people may now be turning to silver as we go to break here the numbers at the club. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation little community. Are you going the right way or are you being led. Directly to what is true whats his face. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Or a maid in the shallows. Of no wants a clip of she will be no use to you. I will scatter money my its always ok it was a story or more one of the late. Not something. Youd see in the media this type of they take you with us the at the close to that. Specific question here in the capital thank you that at the way i. See the. Yes. Yes. 54 jets and more than 1300 military personnel are headed to heal some air force base in alaska where is that to say come on ill show you whats the reason for any type of enhanced u. S. Military presence in this area rush up. What is it suddenly about the South China Sea that makes it so of it 11000000000 barrels of oil. Take a look at this map who really owns what chinas says no it belongs to us india says no we claim that that belongs to us both of these countries have Nuclear Weapons capabilities there is reason for concern so thats why were going to drill down on this story for you today right here on the news with rick sanchez where you know as we always like to say we do believe by golly its time to do news again. The past few months have proven to be unpredictable well weve seen record volatility in the markets thanks to the pandemic and an Unemployment Rate of 14. 7 percent and now out in mass demonstrations and wall street is still gaining back from march lows well joining me now for the best cohost Christine Christie despite the unrest across america and every major city the equities market is. Up once again well this is very different than how the Hong Kong Market behaved during their protests whats going on in the market. Well thoughts are flat as a reopening bounces kind of losing steam and there is again that rotation that weve been seeing as laggers are coming back into line so that we might have largely ignored the unrest and said the focus is on the progress of the economic reopening so you have names like the airlines retailers and cruise lines getting bid up and i dont want to sound heartless but the market is blind to social justice because the bottom line of these publicly traded companies is not being affected most of the companies that are being looted most of the businesses that are being destroyed and damaged they are mom and pop shops not the publicly traded names so therefore the equities market is completely blind to all the rest so at the end of the day investors are simply trying to make money so once again theyre crowding into the stay at home economy and Consumer Staples names but right now the problem is that the divergence between stoc
