MPR News learned that the Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot Amir Locke during a no-knock raid in 2022 is responsible for leading the police department's use of force training.The head of the police department said he understands why the choice of Sgt. Mark Hanneman to do this type of training will concern some people - but said Hanneman is the right person for the job.However, the decision to put Hanneman in that position upset members of Locke's family and others who say it hurts MPD's efforts to reform police culture and repair community relations.Cari Spencer reported the story and joined Minnesota Now to share about her reporting.

Interview with Christopher Taylor, Chairman, and Claudia Tornquist, President & CEO ,of Kodiak Copper Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/kodiak-copper-tsxvkdk-bc-porphyry-explorer-advances-from-discovery-to-resource-stage-in-2025-6573Recording date: 25th June 2025Kodiak Copper Corp (TSXV: KDK) has announced a significant milestone with its maiden mineral resource estimate for the MPD copper-gold project in British Columbia, marking the culmination of six years of systematic exploration. The resource encompasses four of seven identified mineralized zones, revealing 300 million tons of mineralization grading 0.42% copper equivalent for indicated resources and 0.33% for inferred resources.The scale of the discovery positions MPD among British Columbia's significant copper deposits. Founder and Chairman Christopher Taylor noted that using equivalent cutoff grades to nearby mines, the project contains "between 2 and 3 billion pounds of copper equivalent roughly, and that's worth more than $10 billion in the ground in resource." This substantial resource base provides the foundation for what could become a major mining operation in the region.Despite the impressive resource scale, Kodiak trades at approximately $50 million market capitalization, presenting what management views as a significant valuation disconnect. President and CEO Claudia Tornquist highlighted this opportunity, noting that comparable British Columbia copper companies with established resources "trade at 150 million, 200 million or more."The timing appears strategically advantageous given the global copper supply shortage. Tornquist emphasized that "the pipeline of projects, of exploration projects, development projects in the copper sector are at an all-time low," while demand accelerates from AI infrastructure and renewable energy transitions.Looking ahead, Kodiak expects to complete its full seven-zone resource estimate by year-end, with the remaining southern zones containing significant near-surface, high-grade mineralization. The company has secured funding for 5,500 meters of additional drilling, with results expected through autumn.Given the project's scale and characteristics, management anticipates eventual acquisition by a major mining company, as porphyry projects of this magnitude typically require major company involvement for development. The maiden resource provides the concrete numbers necessary for institutional evaluation and potential merger and acquisition discussions.View Kodiak Copper's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/kodiak-copper-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Nos 50 anos da independência de Cabo Verde, a RFI publica uma série de reportagens sobre este tema. Neste 12° e último episódio, fomos perguntar a antigos combatentes e também aos filhos e netos da independência como está Cabo Verde e se a luta valeu a pena. “Claro que valeu a pena”, respondem muitos, de imediato, mas há reservas e alertas de que se podia "estar muito melhor”. Cinquenta anos depois da proclamação da independência, como está Cabo Verde? Fomos perguntar a quem lutou pela libertação nacional, como Pedro Pires, Silvino da Luz, Osvaldo Lopes da Silva, Amâncio Lopes, Maria Ilídia Évora, Josefina Chantre, Marline Barbosa Almeida, Alcides Évora, Manuel Boal, Óscar Duarte. Mas também quisemos saber a opinião dos filhos e netos da revolução, como a historiadora Iva Cabral, o rapper Hélio Batalha e os sociólogos  Redy Wilson Lima e Roselma Évora. “Não se pode negar que Cabo Verde cresceu em várias áreas”, considera Pedro Pires, o comandante que foi alto dirigente do PAIGC durante a luta de libertação e que depois ascendeu a primeiro-ministro e a Presidente da República. Mas é preciso continuar a trabalhar neste que é um “desafio permanente” de desenvolver o país, alerta. “Valeu a pena” é uma frase que se repete em muitos dos antigos combatentes. Comecemos por Silvino da Luz, que foi combatente e ministro nos primeiros governos de Cabo Verde, lembrando que o país é considerado um exemplo. “Fomos um exemplo nos países que acabavam de chegar à independência e, sobretudo, nas nossas condições. Fomos um exemplo a destacar e temos orgulho nisso.” Josefina Chantre, que tinha como frente de batalha a comunicação social quando trabalhava no secretariado do PAIGC em Conacri, também sublinha que valeu a pena, que voltaria a fazer “a mesma coisa de novo”, que foram feitas várias conquistas em todos os quadrantes, nomeadamente no estatuto da mulher. Mas ainda há desafios. “É gratificante comemorar os 50 anos. Os desafios mantêm-se, sobretudo a nível de mudança de mentalidade, para conseguirmos chegar a um patamar maior, porque estamos sempre a querer mais e melhor para as nossas populações, para as nossas crianças. É um desafio que eu faço aqui: que os nossos jovens realmente se apropriem da nossa história e que continuem o legado de Amílcar Cabral.” Iva Cabral, filha de Amílcar Cabral, o líder da luta de libertação, sublinha que a independência cumpriu o desejo essencial do pai: que o povo cabo-verdiano decida a sua história. “Eu acho que cumpriu muito. Estruturou-se um Estado, a educação para todos, saúde e uma sociedade que está avançando, apesar de todos os males. Mas, principalmente, o meu pai lutou por isso: o poder de construção da sua história e que o povo cabo-verdiano decida qual é a história futura dele. Isso era o principal que o meu pai queria, que os africanos tivessem o direito de construir a sua história.” A maior conquista é a auto-estima do povo cabo-verdiano, avalia outro comandante que foi ministro na primeira República de Cabo Verde, Osvaldo Lopes da Silva, apontando outras conquistas alcançadas em 50 anos. “Haverá sempre motivos de queixa. Haverá sempre razões para dizer que podíamos ter feito mais. Mas a verdade é que Cabo Verde era considerado um país inviável. Hoje em dia, ninguém tem dúvidas de que Cabo Verde é um país viável. Para mim, essa é a maior conquista. A autoestima do cabo-verdiano e a convicção de que podemos ir longe." “Claro que valeu a pena” porque de "ilhas esquecidas" se fez um povo, considera Amâncio Lopes, um dos antigos combatentes que lutou na Guiné pela independência da Guiné e Cabo Verde. “Eu considero que valeu a pena porque Cabo Verde eram umas ilhas pura e simplesmente esquecidas. Tornámo-nos um povo e isso vale a pena ou não vale? Vale." Ver as crianças a saírem alegres e numerosas da escola é a maior vitoria de Maria Ilídia Évora, que durante a luta, depois da formação militar, recebeu formação na área de enfermagem e obstetrícia para poder ajudar as mulheres e as crianças no país independente. “Valeu e muito. Uma coisa que preocupava muito o nosso líder em Cabo Verde e na Guiné era a educação, toda a gente ir para a escola, meninas e rapazes. A preocupação principal dele era ver o povo a desenvolver. Ele dizia: ‘Não há nenhum país no mundo que desenvolve com analfabetos, para o país desenvolver, tem que ter quadros.' Fico radiante quando vejo os alunos a saírem da escola e que não tinham essa possibilidade no tempo colonial. Quando eu vejo as crianças a sairem da escola com aquela alegria toda, eu também fico alegre porque eu digo sacrifiquei-me, mas valeu a pena.” Também o médico Manuel Boal, cuja frente de batalha era a saúde, faz um balanço positivo porque apesar dos parcos recursos, Cabo Verde consegue ser um exemplo em África. “Não há dúvida nenhuma que, 50 anos depois, Cabo Verde é um país que, apesar de pobre em recursos materiais, Cabo Verde consegue ter uma política e um programa de desenvolvimento que é considerado exemplar na região africana. Isso para nós, mostra que a luta valeu a pena.” “Evidentemente que a luta valeu a pena”, resume Alcides Évora que também foi treinado com armas mas acabou por fazer a maior parte da luta ao serviço do secretariado do PAIGC em Conacri. Para ele, Cabo Verde vingou-se de todos os que consideravam que seria um país inviável.“Evidentemente que a luta valeu a pena. Nós quando chegámos a Cabo Verde, os cofres do Estado não tinham absolutamente nada lá dentro. Muitos acharam que Cabo Verde era inviável, dada a sua escassez de chuva e falta de quadros. Muitos estrangeiros que chegavam cá diziam: ‘Vocês estão a tentar o impossível'. Mas esse impossível, tornou-se possível.” A luta também valeu a pena para Óscar Duarte, um dos cabo-verdianos que combatia na clandestinidade e que foi preso no campo de São Nicolau, em Angola, conhecido como "o Tarrafal angolano", mas onde as condições de sobrevivência eram bem piores. Meio século depois, admite que “Cabo Verde deu um pulo grande” e vai continuar a crescer.  “Bem, eu penso que Cabo Verde deu um pulo grande porque, como é sabido, Cabo Verde não tem nada em termos de recursos naturais. Na altura, quando nos tornámos independentes, os bancos não tinham dinheiro, portanto não havia praticamente nada. As ajudas começaram a aparecer e foram muito bem empregues. Eu estou contente, a evolução não irá parar e daqui a mais alguns anitos, Cabo Verde vai estar muito melhor ainda." Outra pessoa que tinha estado na clandestinidade em Cabo Verde, mas que não escapou aos temíveis interrogatórios da polícia política, foi Marline Barbosa Almeida. Para ela, 50 anos depois o balanço é também positivo. “Valeu a pena. Claro que valeu a pena. Cabo Verde podia estar melhor, sem dúvida, nós sempre ambicionamos por melhor. Mas eu acho que estamos muito bem e estamos a caminhar para uma vida melhor para todos. Há altos e baixos, como na vida." Os jovens são mais críticos e dizem que “a luta continua”. Claro que o país está melhor, mas é preciso o salto qualitativo para se cumprir Cabral, comenta o sociólogo Redy Wilson Lima. “Falta essa parte qualitativa. Cabo Verde deu um salto enorme, claramente, eu fui crescendo aqui, dá para perceber o progresso que nós fizemos em todos os aspectos. Agora, falta é qualificar este progresso. É isto que falta para realmente realizarmos o sonho de Cabral, que é ter uma terra diferente dentro da nossa terra, que infelizmente ainda não temos. Está melhor, mas ainda faltam desafios. Claro que não se compara com há 50 anos, mas podíamos estar muito, mas muito melhor.” Os ideais dos que lutaram pela libertação dos povos africanos em geral foram traídos, adverte o rapper Hélio Batalha que diz que “o futuro é longe e há que lutar hoje”.  “O legado de Amílcar Cabral, 50 anos depois da independência e 52 anos depois da sua morte, eu acho que deixa muito a desejar. Eu acho que o jovem cabo-verdiano conhece muito pouco a história, o legado e todo o projecto que Amílcar Cabral tinha para Cabo Verde, Guiné-Bissau e para a África no geral. Politicamente, há uma dicotomia de visão, o que atrapalha muito a imersão da juventude, o conhecer da juventude. Eu acho que se precisa fazer mais a nível de a nível dos sucessivos governos do PAICV e do MpD para impulsionar ainda mais o que é a nossa história.” Ainda há grandes desafios, mas também houve muitas conquistas a nível social, económico e político, avalia Roselma Evora, pesquisadora em ciência política e sociologia. Uma das principais é ter ultrapassado o problema histórico das fomes. “Cabo Verde é um país que por causa das secas, sofreu muito com a fome. É um país que teve sempre grandes quantidades de gente a morrer por causa de fome, por causa da seca. Teve alturas em que um terço da população morreu. Eu não digo que não continuemos a ter desafios e famílias a passarem por grandes necessidades de colocar comida à mesa, mas foi ultrapassada a questão da segurança alimentar. É uma conquista deste país.”     Se não for para beneficiar a população, não vale a pena lutar, considerava Amílcar Cabral. Muito se pode fazer ainda, mas muito também já foi feito. Basta olhar para alguns indicadores. Cinquenta anos depois, Cabo Verde está entre os países africanos com melhor classificação no Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano do Programa das Nações Unidas para o Desenvolvimento, que mede três dimensões básicas do desenvolvimento humano: renda, educação e saúde, encontrando-se, em 2025, na posição 135 de 193 países.            Em 1975, Cabo Verde tinha uma economia muito frágil e uma população de cerca de 270 mil habitantes. A esperança média de vida era de aproximadamente 63 anos. De acordo com o Instituto Nacional de Estatísticas, em 2023, a população é de 509 mil habitantes, a esperança média de vida, segundo o Banco Mundial, é de 74 anos. No início dos anos 80, o desemprego era massivo e generalizado, em 2025, a taxa de desemprego é de 10,3%, de acordo com o INE. Na altura da independência, a taxa de analfabetismo era de 70%. Em 2023, esse valor era de 11,2%. Hoje em dia, a economia de Cabo Verde é impulsionada pelo turismo, que representa 25% do seu PIB, e o crescimento económico tem sido robusto, com 7,3% em 2024 (INE). Ainda de acordo com o Instituto Nacional de Estatísticas, a taxa de pobreza absoluta em Cabo Verde foi de 24,75% em 2023 e a pobreza extrema, segundo o limiar internacional de 2,15 dólares por dia e por pessoa, era de 2,28% em 2023. Cabo Verde é ainda reconhecido pela sua estabilidade democrática, com transições pacíficas entre os dois principais partidos políticos desde a introdução do multipartidarismo em 1991. Por tudo isto, “valeu a pena”, mas “a luta continua”.   Pode ouvir aqui as entrevistas integrais:

Minneapolis police are still looking for a suspect in the deadly shooting of an 11-year-old boy at a park in north Minneapolis. MPD says the shooting happened at Folwell Park Monday afternoon. First responders tried to save his life, but the boy, Amir, died from his injuries. It's the second deadly shooting at a Minneapolis park this month. In early June, one person died, and five others were injured after a shooting at Boom Island Park in northeast Minneapolis. Minneapolis Parks Police Chief Jason Ohotto joined Minnesota Now to talk about park safety.

This week, Virginia Democrats went to the polls for primaries, choosing state Senator Ghazala Hashmi as their candidate for Lieutenant Governor this fall. Sen. Hashmi joined the show to discuss her primary win, what it means for Northern Virginia residents, and how she will approach November's general election, where she will face Republican radio talk show host John Reid.Virginia voters selected Jay Jones as the Democratic nominee for Attorney General; he'll go up against incumbent Republican Jason Miyares in November. WAMU's Northern Virginia reporter Margaret Barthel got behind the mic to break down the results. Plus, she set the stage for the widely-anticipated governor's race in the fall. Margaret also previewed the Democratic firehouse primary set for later this month to fill Virginia's 11th Congressional District seat after the death of longtime Congressman Gerry Connolly.The D.C. Council is deep into budget hearings, with hundreds of residents coming out to express their views on proposed cuts, the deal to build a new football stadium, and a pitch to repeal the tipped minimum wage increase. Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen joined Kojo and Tom to discuss his priorities in a tight budget year. Plus, Allen weighs in on D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser's push for stricter youth curfew laws.The bill calls for an 11 p.m. citywide summer curfew for 17-year-olds or younger. Currently, the curfew starts at midnight and applies to those 16 or younger. The proposal also would allow D.C. police to create special zones where the curfew could be set as early as 7 p.m. for 15 consecutive days. However, Councilmember Allen questioned the strategy."Are we pulling away MPD resources to go enforce a curfew that we need them in other places,?" he asked.Allen also said a tougher curfew shouldn't be passed as emergency legislation and without public hearings. The Council is expected to consider it early next month.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

On Wednesday, June 18th, one day before Gus T. was scheduled to fly back to Seattle, Milwaukee's Equal Rights Commission held a meeting to discuss a proposed "trade" that would allow the Milwaukee Police Department to acquire free Facial Recognition Technology (FRT) cameras from the company Biometrica. In the proposed swap, Biometrica receives 2.5 million mugshots of people arrested by MPD. The demographic most likely to be arrested in Milwaukee is black males. Gus sat front row for this fascinating and informative discussion. Mostly people classified as White were in attendance - although there were a substantial number of non-white people present. None of the MPD representatives were classified as black even though the city of Milwaukee has a majority black population. All of the alleged criminals who were shown to be nabbed with the assistance of FRT were privileged black males. Gus was forced to leave this important discussion early because of a 7pm commitment in WhiteFolks' Bay. #ForSade INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

The Minneapolis Police Department has spent a lot of time in the national spotlight for all the wrong reasons.It's operating under a court-ordered agreement with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights after investigators in 2022 found a pattern of racism in Minneapolis policing that violated the Minnesota Human Rights Act.In late December, MPD and the U.S. Justice Department reached an agreement on a federal consent decree that would mandate additional changes. It still needs the approval of a federal judge, who has not set a timeline for considering it.Going forward, how can Minneapolis build trust between police and community members?MPR News host Angela Davis presents an audio documentary about her experiences traveling to Montgomery, Ala., with a group of Minneapolis police officers and Black community members working to bridge the divide.They're part of an ambitious effort called the Police and Black Men Project. Eight years ago, following the police killing of Philando Castile in a Twin Cities suburb, the group started meeting regularly to talk about repairing and building relationships between police and the people they serve.On the Alabama trip, they toured museums and historical sites telling the story of slavery, racial segregation and mass incarceration in America. Then they sat down in small groups and talked about what they'd seen and heard.The goal was to connect the past to the present, create a better understanding of the distrust that exists today and learn how to talk about it. They invited Angela and producer Stephen Smith to tag along, observe and record their intimate discussions.Listen to Angela's Alabama scrapbook and check out her reporter's notebook story online that's filled with insights and photos from the trip.Subscribe to the MPR News with Angela Davis podcast on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or RSS.Use the audio player above to listen to the full audio documentary.
