Amanpour: Tzipi Livni, Jaime Harrison, Dave Zirin, Michael Bennett and Jacob Collier

After years of security cooperation, Israel and the United Arab Emirates have signed a peace deal which sees Israel suspend it’s plans to annex parts of the West Bank. Former Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni joins Christiane Amanpour to discuss the historic agreement. Then, for the past 17 years South Carolina has been a Republican stronghold, and the home state of Republican Senator Lindsey Graham. Jamie Harrison is the first African American Chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party, and is standing toe to toe with Graham this year. He speaks to Christiane about the presidential race and his ambitions to forge a “new South”. The coronavirus pandemic has had a devastating effect on American sport and is now threatening the upcoming college football season. Our Hari Sreenivasan speaks to sportswriter Dave Zirin and retired NFL defensive end Michael Bennett, about their book “Things That Makes White People Uncomfortable” and how the Black Lives Matter movement has been empowering athletes both on and off the field. And musician Jacob Collier exploded onto the music scenes in 2016 with his album “In My Room”, recorded almost single-handedly in his bedroom. Much of his latest album, “Djesse Vol.3” was recorded from his home during lockdown and he reflects on finding inspiration in isolation.
