Assalam alikum I was just wondering how to do we explain the treaty of umar with non muslims like Jews and Christians weren't allowed to walk on the pavement etc

Such a topic is outside the realms of a Quran centric/Quranist viewpoint. There is no mention of Umar in the Quran.

Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe. (21:18)

Although we should remember, that Umar didn't follow the later traditions, as they didn't exist at his time. (-:   A study of his life based on references contemporary to his era would be an interesting exercise in understanding views pre-tradition. For example, references to the sunna of Umar were just as prominent as Muhammad.
