Family of George Floyd get $27M settlement

City of Minneapolis settle Floyd lawsuit; thousands trapped by militants in Mozambique

The family of George Floyd receive $27M from the city of Minnesota in one the biggest-ever such settlements.

Also, we hear from Mozambique where thousands of civilians are trapped by Islamist militants in the town of Palma in the northern province of Cabo Delgado.

Plus, the US will grant temporary humanitarian protection to Burmese citizens in America as violence grows following last month's military coup.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Samira Rafaele, a Dutch Member of the European Parliament for the social-liberal political party, D66; and Helen Scales, a British marine biologist and writer.
