Reggie Yates: Race Riots USA and Stacey Dooley Investigates: Saving the Cyber Sex Girls

Reggie Yates documentary takes place in Ferguson, Missouri following the death of Black teenager Michael Brown by a police officer. Yates follows the story of police brutality vs race. Yates talks to a range of people both White and Black and of all ages and learns what they believe. All the Black people Yates talks to say they want peace, they don't want to walk down the street afraid they might get shot. Just from hearing them say this it emphasises how afraid the Black people of America are becoming in fear the might not live through the day.
When Yates when to a police training day he watched how they dealt with situations and what they did when threatened. I understand that because everyone in America has the right to keep and bear arms the police need to be prepared for the worst of situations but it seems during their training the only thing they are teaching the officers is to shoot. It amazed me that the only scenario they carried out was a traffic stop, they aren't dealing with high profile crimes just a traffic stop. The whole documentary really showed how the gun laws in America need to be changed because it seems everyone including the police are afraid on the guns.
Racial profiling is obviously a huge problem in america, I specifically noticed this when Yates spoke to a group of peaceful protesters supporting Darren Wilson (The officer who shot Brown) although they also claim to want peace between everyone in the community they all carried guns in case like before protesters were yelling at them and pushing them; hardly a reason to pull a gun on someone.
Seeing the abuse of police officers on the civilians is upsetting because so many of them abuse their right and do things that should never be done to people.
I thoroughly enjoyed this documentary because it was incredibly informative and I could hear so many different peoples point of views. It was good how Yates went in with an unbiased opinion to interact with everybody.

The Stacey Dooley documentary was shocking because here in England I don't think about these terrible things happening to other young girls around the world many of whom are younger than me. The first girl she spoke to had a terrible start to her life online with predators constantly pestering her for things no 14 year old should be doing. It's saddening to here how she was with a man for the first time because he offered her £30, and that's what she feels she needs to do to get money. To us in the UK that is nothing but that must amount to a lot in the Philippines. It's interesting that easy internet access in the Philippines practically ensures that young girls will be approached by older men.
Things like trafficking we very rarely hear about but it's obviously a huge problem all over the Philippines and many other poor countries. I am not so aware of things like this which should change, the media should have more coverage on the terrible things happening in other countries.  
The age of consent in the Philippines is 12 years old which is unbelievably young.
The emotional therapy session was particularly upsetting because it made me realise how bad the abuse was there. They anger they were showing was nothing like I'd ever seen before and I realise how lucky I am to have the life I live.
I really enjoyed this documentary because it informed me on something I didn't know much about and you don't hear much about in the media. It's shocking how these things happen all over the world and yet it's hard to get justice and protect these young girls being abused.
