[00:00:56] of
[00:01:15] Hello, I'm lara
[00:01:17] culturasan and this is new speed, your dose of what people are talking about
[00:01:20] online.
[00:01:25] in
[00:01:44] the 87 year old became the face of nation's housing
[00:01:48] crisis, after being evicted from the apartment she's lived
[00:01:51] in for over
[00:01:53] of seven decades, investment firm had bought Maria's
[00:01:56] property and raised her monthly rent by a whopping to... than
[00:02:00] 30%. On September 23rd, she was carried
[00:02:04] out a stretcher as police confronted protesters
[00:02:08] trying to stop the eviction. She spent her final two weeks in
[00:02:11] hospital. An agreement was reached allowing her to live in
[00:02:15] her flat, but she died in hospital before she could go
[00:02:19] home. This is social
[00:02:22] murder. The the owner of that building who
[00:02:26] chose to evict her at 87 years old on her medical stretcher is guilty.
[00:02:30] the police who executed this are guilty of murdering this
[00:02:34] woman, we have to fight like our lives depend on
[00:02:38] it because they do. she has always paid her rent and which at this
[00:02:41] time had been €500 for where she lives
[00:02:44] nowadays that's like insane if you
[00:02:48] got that place in the 1950s that's what you pay and that's
[00:02:52] what she deserves to pay. a company called Urba Hestion took over
[00:02:56] of her building and they wanted to increase her rent from €500
[00:03:00] eur a month to €2,600 a month.
[00:03:04] minimum wage, which is what i've been making these past couple years, it's
[00:03:08] a, eur a month,
[00:03:11] of of which now it's that's like unlivable, and i've always had second job, i've had a third job, you
[00:03:15] know, but for someone like Marty Carnman who is living off of a
[00:03:18] pension, she couldn't even afford, like it's
[00:03:22] a,0 more than her pension is, basically, it's literally
[00:03:25] impossible on the salary that you make here ever live
[00:03:29] alone. It's usually almost impossible even live with
[00:03:33] roommates, but if you do live with roommates and you have your
[00:03:36] one room, it's going to be more than half of your salary. The
[00:03:40] prime minister of Spain introduced two emergency decrees, both of which
[00:03:44] were rejected by parliament. The first was to stop land lords increasing rent by
[00:03:48] more than 2% until 2027, and it also blocked the
[00:03:52] eviction of vulnerable tenants with nowhere else to go until
[00:03:55] 2030. The second one said that once lease hit five years, it
[00:03:59] a renewed or... dramatically and landowed who wants out without a legal
[00:04:02] reason would owe the tenant a year's worth of rent. Pedro sanchez's government is a
[00:04:06] minority in Spain's congress and the key swing vote here argued that these
[00:04:10] restrictions would actually make
[00:04:12] of Spain's housing crisis tighter rather than making homes more
[00:04:15] affordable. Spain has built fewer homes per capita than basically any
[00:04:19] other high-income country over the last 10 years and that house building crunch has
[00:04:23] been met by a population boom alongside that population boom
[00:04:27] mass tourism and demand from digital nomads. are adding to the pressure
[00:04:31] on housing in Spain. In cities such as
[00:04:34] of Barcelona, apartments rented to holiday makers can earn landlords more than
[00:04:38] long-term tenants. Immigration has also contributed to
[00:04:42] population growth and increase
[00:04:44] of demand for homes, particularly in cities where jobs are
[00:04:47] concentrated. Spain's main trade unions have called
[00:04:51] a general strike in November, demanding affordable housing,
[00:04:55] better wages and action on rising prices. The
[00:04:58] strike will take place. Ahead of a snap election on November
[00:05:02] 29th, call by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, after the
[00:05:05] Conservative Popular Party, far
[00:05:08] of right in walks and katalan separatist party hunts rejected two
[00:05:11] emergency. housing decrease. Sanchez has been running
[00:05:15] Spain since 2018 and during that time things have been going well up
[00:05:19] until recently where the parliament has been increasingly divided.
[00:05:23] Mr. Sanchez realizes that there's no reason to keep going back to parliament and try
[00:05:27] to vote on these measures when he knows they're going to fail, so he's decided to have
[00:05:31] snap elections, which is major gamble. And that's mostly because
[00:05:35] it's not really looking good for him right now. With this party currently polling at
[00:05:39] 27.4%, he's actually in second place meaning. that it's
[00:05:42] quite possible he may not get enough votes to stay in
[00:05:46] power.
[00:05:50] france will employ 3,00
[00:05:52] more substitute teachers as student let protests continue. young
[00:05:56] people are demanding changes to an education system they say is
[00:06:00] on the resource and failing to meet their needs.
[00:06:03] demonstrations began in september and quickly spread across the
[00:06:07] country. many them turned violent as police use tear gas
[00:06:11] and forced to dis'. the protesters, the use of stun
[00:06:15] grenades was suspended after a 15-year-old boy lost a hand
[00:06:19] earlier this week. rights groups and unions have criticized
[00:06:23] what they describe as excessive police force. in this
[00:06:26] video, the mayor of S Pali Bagayoko
[00:06:30] stands between police and student
[00:06:32] protesters. ages 15 to 18 have
[00:06:36] been blocking their school since mid-September a protest movement that is spread across the
[00:06:40] country. students say classes are over. with 32 to
[00:06:43] 36 puples in some rooms and that absent teachers often go
[00:06:47] unreplaced. one 15-year-old in Paris that his school went a whole year without a
[00:06:51] science teacher. the high schoolers also cite deteriorating buildings,
[00:06:55] overheated classrooms, long school days and pressures tied to pakusu, the
[00:06:59] national college admissions platform. students from poor suburbs argue
[00:07:03] that where a child lives should not determine the quality their education, well teachers
[00:07:07] and researchers say that schools have taken on more responsibilities even as
[00:07:10] per student funding has failed. roughly flat over the past decade, the
[00:07:14] interior ministry reported 1,949 arrests on October
[00:07:18] 1st and the Education Ministry said dozens of staff members and more than 100
[00:07:22] students have been injured since the movement began. Education Minister
[00:07:26] Edward Jeffrey has said that the ultraviolent fringe groups are holding the
[00:07:29] student movement hostage. Competition for university
[00:07:33] places is another concern. Generally, more than 90%
[00:07:37] of students passed the bacalaret in France, but few get to
[00:07:41] study courses. most want to. This is because of a
[00:07:44] platform called Paasuku. It uses a vague algorithm
[00:07:48] to filter students for specific courses. Demonstrators
[00:07:52] say the system is confusing and kills their dreams. The
[00:07:56] unrest has quickly become political and left-wing politicians have
[00:08:00] joined demonstrations. With a presidential election due next
[00:08:03] year, the state of education is becoming major campaign
[00:08:07] issue. The Cornel
[00:08:10] University's sexual assault case. continues to draw intense
[00:08:14] scrutiny, the lawyer, representing Jane Dose says she's
[00:08:17] received death threats. Scrutiny is also growing over
[00:08:21] Cornel's handling the case. One the accused, Gilia
[00:08:25] Lopez, has filed the petition seeking to remove New York attorney general
[00:08:29] Leticia James as special prosecutor. His lawyer
[00:08:32] argues James cannot be impartial because she previously
[00:08:36] committed on the case on social media. Jaindough filed the civil
[00:08:40] lawsuit in September alleged. that she was sexually
[00:08:43] assaulted by seven flat members in 2024.
[00:08:47] the case has sparked anger online with many accusing cornel,
[00:08:51] police and the district attorney of failing to protect the
[00:08:55] survivor and attempting a massive cover
[00:08:57] up. mister, didn't know about the transcripts,
[00:09:01] district attorney, let's start with you. so the cornel police come to you and they're like,
[00:09:05] hey, we have this really horrific, terrible situation, a student
[00:09:09] says she
[00:09:10] was gang, you know what, and we have six-page. statement, can you read this and see if we
[00:09:13] can potentially press charges? what questions did you ask or now police?
[00:09:17] here we go, did you tell the district attorney that you conducted two-day
[00:09:21] interview and that there was a 120 page long transcript the
[00:09:24] interview and that little six-page statement that you submitted was nowhere near the entire case
[00:09:28] file, but the district attorney came out and said actually no you did not. so after
[00:09:32] the DA declined to press charges, cornell, the university, they still went ahead and
[00:09:36] they did their own separate investigation, they interviewed over 30 witnesses
[00:09:40] collected interviews and they decided to try to...
[00:09:42] handle it in house
[00:09:46] one so the fraternity was banned from campus and then word got around that the punishments for the students who were investigated was for the individuals named
[00:09:50] in the civil lawsuit to write essays to try to lessen their punishment.
[00:09:54] Cornell has confirmed that two the seven were expelled, two were
[00:09:58] suspended for at least two semesters, one graduated before Cornel could do
[00:10:02] anything and two were found not responsible for the misconduct, but the
[00:10:06] governor of New York was like, yeah that's not enough, so Mr. I didn't read the transcript da,
[00:10:09] your services are no longer needed, so now the... original district attorney is
[00:10:13] out and
[00:10:14] this Cornel really put it into perspective, we know that a
[00:10:18] frat there are probably seven men that would rape women as crazy as that
[00:10:21] is. There were over 50 men in that group chat. not a
[00:10:25] single call to the police, that's the issue. not a single one thought that
[00:10:29] it was more important to protect her than it was to protect their friends who are
[00:10:33] rapists. jane do in the cornel 7 case is now receiving
[00:10:37] death threats. this is text message she received saying if you care about your
[00:10:40] family withdraw the case, you're accusing my cousin of something he didn't do.
[00:10:44] would you like to see blank's brains in front of blank blank blank? if
[00:10:48] so don't withdraw the case. the sender claimed to be related to
[00:10:52] Jonathan Newel, one these seven accuse in the lawsuit. and also said that she was
[00:10:56] spreading lies about something he didn't do. meanwhile,
[00:10:59] aidaho, a group chat allegedly involving high school football
[00:11:03] players is raising similar concerns. screenshots shared
[00:11:07] on snapchat appear to show threats to rape and kill female
[00:11:11] student. one message also references the coronel
[00:11:14] case. idaho high school football team
[00:11:18] trying to won up the cornel 7. cornell was bad, just wait for
[00:11:22] us. that was a really an actual message it was sent in a group. chat between a bunch of high
[00:11:25] school football players a private school and boysy and not only did that message leak
[00:11:29] online but also
[00:11:30] you had others like quote letter hang from light post and let the birds pick it her
[00:11:34] brains for days and the conversation for if she deserves to die is there and tonight you have
[00:11:38] the cops opening investigation of this team at timberland high school over alleged death threats
[00:11:42] and sexual violence all reportedly aimed at one girl and apparently the only reason
[00:11:46] that any of this made it to the cops it might actually be because of math teacher at the same school
[00:11:49] who got fired the years ago when other students confided in her because this is Laura
[00:11:53] Bolton and she's since become an activist for survivors of assault and guiding them through the
[00:11:57] reporting process if they choose to go that route and while when she was fired idah law allowed a
[00:12:01] school to choose to do its own internal investigation instead of reporting to the cops. earlier this
[00:12:05] year she actually helped pass a new law requiring school districts to report incidents like this to the
[00:12:09] cops.
[00:12:14] imagine buying whatever you want, but your bank balance never
[00:12:17] changes. it sounds like a dream, but some south koreans are trying
[00:12:21] the next best thing, retail therapy minus the...
[00:12:25] iceeback: so-called dopamine sites recreate the thiral of online
[00:12:28] shopping, letting users fill their cards and check
[00:12:32] out, but without spending a single cent. in
[00:12:36] Korea right now, there's people ordering food cards at 2 a.m. and
[00:12:40] they're actually not putting in real money, they're filling up the carts and never
[00:12:44] ordering anything, and this is all on purpose. this is the rise of something called
[00:12:48] dopamine sites in korea. so you browse the menus, you add the
[00:12:51] food, and you actually add it to your car, minus the food at the end. another one that's
[00:12:55] built like smoke break, you go on your smoke break, you can see how many strangers are on
[00:12:59] break with you, people can leave each other little notes. here's what's happening right
[00:13:03] now, i think that these apps are actually just people trying to
[00:13:06] regulate themselves through these apps, so they're less looking
[00:13:10] for function, they're more looking for connection and more looking for uh
[00:13:14] to fulfill the sense of need for lot belonging,
[00:13:18] their need for validation or think in the case the food
[00:13:22] delivery app, it's just to numb themselves from the... pain or
[00:13:26] discomfort of having to deal with the problems, the whole phenomena can
[00:13:29] showcase like how society is feeling and the fact that this is on the
[00:13:33] rise mean people are longing for something and that they need these sites
[00:13:37] to fill it and that maybe doom scrolling or playing video games are just not it anymore and people
[00:13:41] want to feel that sense of familiarity and comfort
