here in jackson mississippi. [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] [inaudible backround conversations] the mississippi book festival now in its 50 year another year in jackson as Ãbhere's a look at what's happening outside the law merely books tent where attendees can purchase the book. [inaudible background conversations] while we wait for the next author discussion from mississippi to start, we want to show you a little bit of a program from last year with rachel devlin on the desegregation of american public schools through the actions of young women throughout the country. >> "a girl stands at the door" is a retelling of brown board of education. it's a retelling that situates the story with the young girls and women who were plaintiff in desegregation lawsuits in the late 1940s and leading up to brown v board and by telling the stories of the woman who volunteered to desegregate the schools especially in the deep south. these young women took grace book risks and filing lawsuits especially in

let's speak to cliffjohnson whojoins us from oxford, mississippi. he's from the macarthur justice centre, which is a civil rights law firm. do we know what's happened to the people who been released? duncan, some of them are finding their way back home, they are attempting to reunite with children from whom they then separated. 0thers reunite with children from whom they then separated. others we think are basically underground, concerned about what's going to happen going forward and many of them will ultimately be required to show up in immigration courts and defend themselves against ice in the united states government. let's be clear, these are people who been in the united states a very long time and had children there and really set up roots in their communities. you are absolutely right, duncan. these are people who we've known in these small towns for years and years, they've had these jobs for a very long time, they are children in our public schools, they coached baseball teams and soccer clubs. these are our neighbours and friends so thes

mississippi more than alabama. louisiana and mississippi. these plantations don't ever change the fact that virginia is the largest slaveholding state in the country in 1860. virginia has a norma's sleigh popular -- enormous slave populations. if you're going to start a rebellion, you need to know the demographics. what are they in virginia? in virginia, whites outnumber propitiou county? southampton county has more slaves than whites. i also want to go back to this map of cotton production. production extends into southampton county. when we see where it is going, we know where sleigh production is going. the black belt, the mississippi river. this will also play an important role in the revolt. why? we see the shift of the slave population from the coast, which is where it is in the 1830 map, to the mississippi river area. without taking the slave population away from virginia. virginia still has a slave population, it is just the growth in slave population happens in the west. slaves ine number of the country in 1830? 2 million. in 1860?

anywhere from 40 to 100 miles outside of jackson, mississippi. mostly in small towns. 80 unauthorized 6 workers and brought them to a air national guard hangar next to the jackson airport where they processed them, fingerprinted them, and the next day they ended up releasing workers, andthose turned them back to the communities. 400 that wille to be moved to a federal facility in louisiana and processed and eventually deported. >> what has the reaction been throughout mississippi including the p no community, and what response are you expecting? it depends on the perspective. for the latino community it has been devastating. adding insult to injury for them, these raids happened on the first day of school. employees were ,hipped off from the children the children did not know where their parents were. it was a bit of outrage from that perspective. a lot of people are heartbroken by what happened. politically it has been divisive. supporter,r, a trump has supported the raids as has the u.s. attorney who was appointed by trump. they call it a matte

here in mississippi. and it's kind of difficult for me to understand why. >> julia, let's go to those work sites. those food processing plants. has anyone there been charged? >> we have no verification that they have or will be, stephanie. the u.s. attorney for the southern district of mississippi yesterday said, this should send a clear message to employers that if you hire illegal workers we will come after you. then right after that, the logical followup question was, well what about these employers of these six food processing plants? they declined to say whether they will be charged at all. one thing to remember here is that a lot of times employers and not saying this happened in this case, but in past cases, an employer can cooperate with i.c.e. in order to bring about a large scale raid like this and in return they could get some kind of immunity. or certain people may be punished or it might be a fine but not a criminal penalty. so, you know, there are a lot of questions here about who is at faul

but the mayor of mississippi's state capital, jackson, has called the raids dehumanising. chris buckler, bbc news, washington. the indian prime minister, narendra modi, has defended his government's decision to remove kashmir‘s special status. he said its removal would benefit not only the people of kashmir — but all of india. india and pakistan claim kashmir in its entirety, but each controls part of the territory. pakistan has said the removal of special status breaches international law, but its foreign minister said they are not looking at a military response. 0ur correspondent yogita limaye, is one of the few international journalists in kashmir. she sent this report from srinagar, which has been in lockdown since sunday. kashmir is a fortress. tens of thousands of indian soldiers line its streets and highways. police vans announcing there is a curfew in place do the rounds. boys raising anti—india slogans are chased away. and there are checkpoints everywhere. we're asked for ids and curfew passes, and after some convincing, we're allowed to go ahead. because of

undertook in mississippi. is there an example that stands out in your mind where that was undertaken and it was done well and they were able to yaoffset what we've seen with the children now coming home to no parents? >> i.c.e. raids are always going to be chaotic. the difference we've seen is in this administration really the scale of the i.c.e. raids that we're seeing are something that we did not see under the obama administration. there were a number of deportations, but not these mass roundups that we saw. this is part and parcel of the larger m.o. of the trump administration. the zero tolerance policy. the administration puts these hard line immigration policies into place. cruelty may be a factor but it's also a complete lack and knowledge of the logistics that go into policy implementation. you can have a policy output of we'll do mass deportations, zero tolerance, but there's a lot of steps that have to be put in place before them. in this case one of those steps should have been let's have a centrali

i'll tell you, that's one of the problems in mississippi. mississippi won't pass laws to that effect. we have state laws in effect. we have a democratic attorney general that has refused like many national democrats to enforce the laws. that's the reason that was trump and the federal government did what they had to do. jim hood has ignored his responsibility to enforce mississippi laws. >> shannon: the feds are involved now. we'll see who pays the price and the various people involved on both sides, the employer and employees. lieutenant governor, thank you for being with us. >> thanks for having me on. >> shannon: a fox news alert. north korea firing projectiles. this after the president says he got a new leader from the hermit leader. this as president trump plays not so nice with china and one of their big tech companies. gillian turner reports. >> it's much simpler not to do any business with huawei. so we're not. >> president trump announced this afternoon the u.s. washing its hands of any and all dealings with the chinese telecom gian

the raids fell on the first day of school in mississippi. here's the heartbreaking part -- it left some children, among them, kindergartners, alone after school without a family to go home to. congressman joaquin castro condemned the raid saying "let's be clear -- i.c.e. raids of this scale are not conducted for the purpose of imgraction enforcement. they are to strike fear in our communities in a time when latinos are already living in terror." the mass arrests of latino workers happened as the country reels from the deadliest attack on hispanics in this country's history. >>> and on this same day, president trump traveled to el paso amid questions about whether his own rhetoric may have influenced at least in part that terrorist attack. >> i think we have toned it down. these are people that are looking for political gain. i don't think they're getting it. and as much as possible, i've tried to stay out of that. i think my rhetoric is a very -- it brings people together. >>> all right, the u.s. attorneys for the southern district of missis

. >> he's being held at a mississippi detention center. jorge is expected to appear before a judge later this week. cnn has learned he does not have a prior criminal conviction even though the acting commissioner of customs and border protection told cnn on sunday that he had committed a crime. it's still unclear if charges will be brought against owners and management who hired undocumented workers at the mississippi plants that authorities had raided. >>> the fbi is investigating shooting incidents targeting two buildings in san antonio. buildings where connections to immigration and customs enforcement or i.c.e. shots were fired early tuesday morning into one building housing i.c.e. offices and another nearby where an i.c.e. contractor was located. the fbi says an unknown number of people in cars pulled up and started firing. there's no question the suspects knew exactly which floors the i.c.e. offices were on. federal employees were inside one of the facilities when shots were fired. nobody was hurt. authorities have not linked the san

it was a pirate victory as the upper mississippi mineral agency had effectively closed shop. from that point, we move a little bit further north into michigan, that is specifically the peninsula, while various attempts were made to revive the system in the upper mississippi, especially after the united states, it moved to lake superior in the 1840s, the copper deposits entered into u.s. ownership in 1842 and like the upper mississippi minds before them, quickly attracted the attention of minors. given the issues in the upper mississippi, however, the ordnance bureau changed tactics in an attempt to establish and maintain control over the copper region. among the offices first decisions was to issue permits for much larger areas, initially nine square miles. in an effort to keep the number of lessie's manageable. they also named a civilian agent to superintend the open minds, cunningham was an employee of the revived upper mississippi agency. most important, they concluded the counter of potential squatters and unlicensed miners with a permanent military force. in the summer o
