As unrest continues in the US after the death of George Floyd, talk show diva-producer-philanthropist Oprah Winfrey feels people in the US are not only fighting police violence against black people but with systemic racism as well. Winfrey said, "So the question that's been on my mind is are we willing to finally face at this moment, the reality and step into what can be a watershed moment and also what exactly will we do? Where do we go from here?," she added. This question led her towards the two-hour special "OWN Spotlight: Where Do We Go From Here?", in which she discusses systemic racism in the US. In the special, Winfrey speaks with a range of Black thought leaders, activists, and artists about systematic racism and the current state of the US. "I've been having private conversations with friends and thought leaders about what's next and where we go from here. I thought it would be both of interest and service to bring their ideas, concerns and comments into a national spotlight." The special was planned in the wake of African American man Floyd's death in police custody which has led to mass protests across the US against systemic racism and police brutality and reignited the Black Lives Matter movement.
Rich Hall sets his keen eye and acerbic wit on his homeland once again as he sifts truth from fiction in Hollywood's version of the southern states of the USA. Using specially shot interviews and featuring archive footage from classic movies such as Gone With The Wind, A Streetcar Named Desire and Deliverance, Rich discovers a South that is about so much more than just rednecks, racism and hillbillies.
English Translation:
Noble Souls are gone in the wind
To those who are killed in the labor camp---
There is a big chimney in Sujatun.
The smoke is rising slowly into the sky.
Have you seen the noble souls, streaming in the wind.
The hands with the knives are trembling.
Keeping silent with their masks on.
However,their eyes still show the evil that threatened and lured them.
These incisions covered their hands with blood which can never be washed away.
They have fallen into bottomless pit.
Underneath the azure sky.
Please do not torture the kindness
Underneath the azure sky
Please do not torture the kindness
Reach out your hands!
We don’t want to keep silent anymore
Reach out your hands
We can’t keep silent anymore
The noble souls are gone with the wind.

Strange object found by chance in google street view. We were watching with a friend and suddenly wonder: What is it? And we began to imvestigate. The address is : 262 W 168th St, Gardena, CA, United States (We believe that not being a blimp do not know what will)

In this game-changing, inspiring book, Ibram X. Kendi, founding director of the Antiracism Research and Policy Center, offers a radical new understanding of racism, showing that we are all part of the problem until we become part of the solution.No one considers themselves to be a racist. We all know it's wrong. Yet the divisions and inequalities of racism are all around us. Why?Racism is so engrained in our world that we often fail to recognise it, especially in ourselves. It is also so taboo that we are afraid to acknowledge it when we do. Until we are genuinely capable of both, Kendi argues, racism will continue.Using his extraordinary gifts as a teacher and story-teller, Kendi helps us break the cycle by describing with moving humility his own journey from racism to antiracism, providing a comprehensive account of the misconceptions that so often cloud our understanding, from arguments about what race is and whether racial differences exist to the complications that arise when race intersects with ethnicity, class, gender and sexuality.In the process he demolishes the myth of the post-racial society and builds from the ground up a vital new understanding of racism ? what it is, where it is hidden, how to identify it and what to do about it.

“Oh, ” sighs the Parson,
and sits upon a stump.
“They are gone. The stars are gone.”
“Gone, ” says the creek.
“Gone, ” says the bird.
“Gone, ” says the wind.
“Oh! ” cries the Parson, “this will not do! ”
and rises from his stump.
“We must bless this dawn with song! ”
“With song! ” cries the creek.
“With song! ” cries the bird.

“Écumeux, ” says the bird.
“Écumeux, ” says the wind.
“Non! ” scolds the Parson,
“sing écumuex! ”
conducting from his stump.
“Écumeux! ” sings the creek.
“Écumeux! ” sings the bird.
“Écumeux! ” sings the wind.
“Oui! ” lauds the Parson. “Écumeux! ”
and leaps into the air,
singing,
“Oui, écumeux, écumeux, écumeux! ”
and leaves this earthen world.
“Écumeux! ”
“Goodbye, ” sings the creek.
“Goodbye, ” sings the bird.
“Goodbye, ” sings the wind.

I am the rain that greens this blesséd place.
I am the meadow.
I am the wildflower.
I am the song of ecstasy! ”

“Oui! ” says the wind. “He is the song of ecstasy! ”

Vivien Leigh became famous overnight in the role of "Scarlett". But the actress, unfortunately, led a life just as tragic as that of her character in 'Gone with the Wind'. We remember the moving life of the Hollywood star.
