Speaker 1 (00:01):
From the Black Information Network. This is the b I M. Dahlia,
I'm Vnesstiler and I'm Mike Stevens on your home for
four seven news the Black Information Networks. It's official, America
has f d a COVID vaccine approval. After a strict process,
(00:22):
FDA is reaffirmed it's finding that the Fiser COVID nineteen
vaccine is safe and effective, and the FDA has given
his full and final approval. President Biden says, this is
what the country has been waiting for, and already it's
made a difference. The markets jumped with news of the
approval three hundred points. Now more businesses most likely will
(00:46):
demand vaccine proof. But the biggest thing this could do
is push the vaccine hesitant. The President had a direct
message to those who use the vaccine's emergency status as
a reason to wait. Now that the vaccine is approved,
the President says, there is no excuse. It's time for
you to go get your vaccination. Get it today. President
(01:08):
Biden says FDA approval is the gold standard that the
vaccine is safe. The process is speeding up, getting the
Americans and Afghan refugees out fast. National security adviser Jake
Sullivan says sixteen thousand and twenty four hours have been
pulled out of Afghanistan. The refugees are being screened. America
(01:29):
has the help of twenty six countries. The US even
recruited commercial airliners to help with the evacuations. American officials
are in daily talks with the Taliban that now controls
the country. The plan is to have everyone who needs
to go out by the end of the month. We
are taking this day by day. We believe we are
(01:50):
making enormous progress. President Biden's eviction ban is back in
the hands of the Supreme Court. A group of landlords
and realtors are looking to the High Court just op
the band which stops people from being kicked out of
their homes after an appeals court refused to do it.
The lawsuit claims the Biden administration ignored her previous Supreme
Court running back in June that said the CDC does
(02:12):
not have the authority to impose an eviction moratorium. Sex
was the price for auditioning, so says an accuser. In
the latest jaw dropping moment in r Kelly's sex trafficking
New York trial, the witness who was identified as Jane
Doe or Zel in the federal courtroom, says she was
seventeen was looking for help with her music career. Instead,
(02:34):
she says what she got was a sexual relationship, a
case of herpes, and beaten with the size twelve sneaker
by the R and B singer. She also says he
rubbed feces in her face for punishment, and she claims
he forced her to have an abortion back in two
thousand seventeen. Kelly's attorneys deny all the allegations, dismissing the
(02:55):
women as eager fans. And a new book is to
earning heads literally. The title My Beautiful Black Hair on
one natural Hair Stories from Sisterhood and it is just
that incredible photos of us and our hair. St Clair
Dietrich jules as a documentary producer director. She was inspired
(03:17):
to create the book because when her little sister was
four years old, she hated her hair after a group
of white classmates teased her. This book is about embracing
the beauty of natural black hair. I'm Vanessa Tyler with

(04:46):
reasons why people refuse to take the COVID vaccine, including
misinformation like what this young person said at a recent
Florida school board meeting. We take of a black light
flashlight and shine it on your vase, and you're now
going to glow in the black light. Becau guess what.
You're no longer human, but no longer can anyone use
the excuse that it's not fully approved. The FDA has
(05:07):
given the full and official thumbs up to getting the
fiser version of the shot, rather than just the emergency
authorization it's been operating under. The full approval is considered
another key milestone in the fight against the virus. Dr
Jesse Goodman is a former FDA scientist. There is no
doubt whatsoever, based on this independent scientific review that the
(05:27):
benefits of the vaccine for outwave risks. President Joe Biden
spoke out to hesitant Americans who have been waiting for
full approval. He said, the moment you've been waiting for
is here. In Orlando, Florida, residents are being told because
of the COVID nineteen surge, they should cut back on
unnecessary water use. The reason many COVID nineteen patients require
(05:48):
liquid oxygen for their treatment to help them breathe easier.
That same liquid oxygen is used to treat the water
supply to take away contaminants. So the more the water
is used for things like lawns, reports are, the less
oxygen is available for suffering COVID patients. With the COVID
vaccine out for a while now, this is the summer
of one, We're supposed to be back to living the
(06:10):
way we used to, like when Will Smith put out
this song thirty years ago, But because of the Delta
variant running rampant and gun violence continuing to take lives
in the black community, this again is anything but a
peaceful summer. In Houston, Texas, two young boys steer or
(06:31):
Carter Is safety after their father was shot and killed
while driving. The brothers, who were eight and six years old,
then jumped out of their suv and ran for help.
Their dad died at the scene, sumped over the wheel.
Investigators just still trying to figure out who fired this
shot and for what reason. It's not just one cop,
but a whole department that's in trouble now. The Bakersfield,
(06:51):
California police Department is accused by the state's attorney general
of failing to adequately enforce the law unreasonable use of force,
unreasonable stops, searches, arrests and seizures, the use of unreasonable
deadly force against those with mental health disabilities. The Bakersfield
Police Department says the accusations are false, but it has
agreed to a five year plan to improve their policies
(07:14):
and practices. An independent monitor will make sure they do
start complying with the law. I want to know why
to buy Black? A website called Revolt gives these reasons
why it helps close the considerable racial wealth gap. White households,
on average bring in about one hundred and sixty thousand
dollars a year more than black homes. Second, supporting black
(07:35):
businesses boost locally economies. In other words, the money you
spend is more likely to stay in your own community. Also,
buying black helps more black entrepreneurs to establish themselves for
the future. And by the way, this is Black Business Month.
