In a national address, President Trump vows to use the military to stop the protests as several cities, including New York, Minneapolis and Washington DC, are put under curfew. What has been the reaction to the protests from business, and corporate America? The BBC's Michelle Fleury brings us up to date from New York. Many clothes shops are opening again as lockdowns are eased around the world. What has their closure meant for Bangladesh's huge garment industry? We hear from Rubana Huq of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association. And alcohol goes back on sale in South Africa, after it was banned during lockdown. For the first time in two months, liquor stores are open. Our reporter Vumani Mkhize joined the long queue to get in.
