it's just 2 days before the base, the inside the c bed, lynch's co defended the us fraud trial. steven chamberlain was hit by a car while out for a room near his home in england. he was taken to a hospital and put on life support. but he died there on monday the same day as lynch's yacht site gets even creepy. here when you read the names of those who went down with the both jonathan bloomer, a senior us banker from the financial joint. morgan stanley, hey, it'd be the star witness for an inch. chris, maurice little american prominent lawyer who defended lynch during his trial, but also was on board the do me off. and here's what he wrote right after the acquittal verdict 2 months ago. i am so glad to be home and i live happily ever off. well, little did he know there's no doubt this string of incredible coincidence as leaves more questions than answers. why wasn't mike lynch, the owner and most familiar with the, amongst a survivors?
8:31 am
how could to the statistically most try men alive, both meet tragic ends within days of each other in the most improbable ways. in any case, it looks like we may never know how to the luckiest man alive, seemingly became the luckiest in the blink of an eye. well that rosa, this is all i know is this other company with us here on, on, on the internet. so let me take a break right now. we'll be back in about 30 minutes. the i met representative sites at a rally in washington, d. c. t introduced his dentist while i do a gathering of mississippians who had travelled there to demand a new state flag by lawrence that as i love this because and the thing is, you know, we had a discussion about that. i saw this flag and fell in love with this,
8:32 am
and i really liked it when i found out that the design of the lord has been is lauren is the granddaughter of sent it to johnston. he represented during the time of jim crow where they thought that separate but equal was okay. is just so important to me to accept that overtime and through the generations of people change on the hip hop already are you still pops when light in and inspires us. i respect honoring your ancestors ion or mine. and that's kind of, i feel where the clash happens because no one's going to back down from that. but i need you to acknowledge the brutality that was carried out under that banner. and once you can do that, then hopefully a dialogue can begin. and we can come to some sort of agreement because i'd rather
8:33 am
have you as my neighbor then my enemy, we value the land of mine. and it's nothing more to say to my guy is the one the the in the, it's pretty flag that's about the extent of it. it does not replace what we have. i understand, you know, the 20 stars or the significance and what the meaning of that supposed to be,
8:34 am
but nothing about it. honors confederate, veterans of the soldiers. nothing. the cemetery that we're going to say cemetery, it's not much of a cemetery, is just a few graves. but to me this is what our state flag is a file. this is why our flagship remind beside the this was originally just a small family cemetery. bell railroad tracks are in the same place. those are and they ran from meridian to jackson, around the vicksburg. soldiers died on the train right up here.
8:35 am
they didn't even know the names of a so just these are some of the files and who fall and and their families never heard from them again to know where they were buried. what happened to them? this one right here, it says a 6 brave soldier sleep here. so that's kind of feel about it. they were brave. they're honorable. by didn't fight to preserve slavery like fault because their home is invited. because their, their stake. ask them to and it was honorable thing that the, the, or
8:36 am
the how can you say that when, when that cause that you say that they fall so lovely for was girded up by slavery. and then you know, the whole reason for mississippi getting into the civil war, they say very plainly, it's about preserving slavery, this stuff that it goes back almost to i found it in this country that the belief that america is white. and anybody else in the country it has to back down to the white race route. so it's about white supremacy. it's about power and control. it's about maintaining the status. and any kind of change occurs in
8:37 am
this country, where there's progress made towards diversity. is responded to as it is a threat to the white if we're going to change this flag in some ways white going to have to stand step up. and it's got to happen in the midst of the legislation. the last legislative session, there were 19 bills related to the flag the session there 22. all of those bills related to change or means by which we could change the flag has been introduced by african american legislators. the bills in support of the current state fired have all been introduced by white male, conservative legislators of the 2001 the people of mississippi voted on a flag and 65 percent of the people voted to keep the current flag. well,
8:38 am
i don't think we as elected representatives, have the right to overturn their decision. now, whether you like it or not, we can argue about that. but the decision was made by the people of mississippi to keep the current flag. so do you have a personal feeling about the flag? i personally believe that we should keep the flag. i think that the narrative that any little maurine being there that harkens back to the civil war is somehow racist or in support of slavery is just wrong. what we have to do is spend the time to educate every one of the what's the real history of the, the belief that the flag issue will be settled when we all understand the real
8:39 am
history of the civil war is attractive. but which part of the history considered a heritage supporters argue that the civil war was not fought to free the slaves because abraham lincoln himself said, so it is original inaugural address. he said, if i could preserve the union for free and all the slaves, i do that i can preserve the union, but for some slight sense, if i can preserve the bedframe those keywords so you can build, lincoln was morally opposed to slavery. he helped common racist leaks and then there's the core when amendment the amendment was proposed to actually legalize. and i tried to propose it to the southern people to get them to not to get back in the union, but they did not. i didn't, they didn't want to have any part of it all, hit a, been a mile with slavery in the core and amendment with a fix that because it stated that the south to perpetuate keep,
8:40 am
is peculiar institution which referred to slavery. if they would not succeed from the core, one amendment passed both houses of congress and $1861.00 lincoln. and his 1st and all girl address said he would not interfere with it. had the car when amendment been adopted before the civil war began, it would have provided a constitutional protection for slavery in the united states. and it would have been the 13th amendment, the mississippi made it clear that they seceded to protect slavery, in part because they believed that black people were better suited to work in the oppressive heat or requirement for picking cotton. and some white mississippians feared that emancipation wouldn't just mean economic ruin. it would lead to something they fear, even more racial equality. this was made clear when a commissioner named william l. a harris was sent to georgia to persuade them to
8:41 am
join mississippi in seceding from the union and form a southern confederacy of slaveholding states, and an address to the georgia general assembly. he said, our fathers made this a government for the white man projecting for west ignorant, inferior barbarian race, incapable of self government. he considered his speech, saying, mississippi would rather see the last of her race. men, women, and children, emulate in one common funeral pyre, can see them subjugated to the deck, redemption of civil, political, and social equality within the race. georgia joined the confederacy. 3 months later with our previous president, there was nothing but a big, hey. and it seemed like there was more of a, a war of a race war, more space on the was really what it was. this isn't a rational thing,
8:42 am
not by any means. and we don't say for anything. rifle at all. we were out here. we're staying for southern pride. the news, the february with this prize very populated that we're going to be able me to tom. it's set out and everybody finally uses wrist it because it's like, don't stand for racism is just our heritage. let's sit down and a table in hash as it comes to understanding that this is the way that we feel, regardless how you feel, you know, the way you feel is why you feel we can't change. so we're not asking you to change that. we're asking you to come to of a place in your life where you can, except what we do as we say of what you, what the odds of that happening are slim. and i honestly believe it freedoms style is going to allow us, i believe people will relax
8:43 am
a little more and that's all racy religions. the 3rd state flag, the flag of 18. $94.00 is the symbol of the mississippi that adopted the constitution of 18. 90 mississippi's governor at that time, james argument unabashedly stated mississippi's constitutional convention of 1890 was held for no other purpose than to eliminate her from politics. let the world know it just as it is. governor of argument also said, if it is necessary and every 0 in the state will be lips and it will be done to maintain white supremacy. sometimes your people say, oh is it is such a bad place or not? quite frankly, they think that that's fine. we can stay wherever they are and why this was,
8:44 am
if i didn't like this, if you don't like mississippi, find a place where you can be a great mistake and then say, if you don't like it, you can go somewhere else. my family has been here for more than a century in the flag is still what it is to me. no, i wanna take the flag away and you can try me on your car. you were talking about these days flags i represent all mississippi in the oliver, the boy. the lease of the russian states never is as tight as one of the most sense community best in most,
8:45 am
all sun set up the same assistance must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will fan in the european union, the kremlin media mission the state on rush has proved inc, and split the ortiz net keeping our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. for what question did you say they replaced? the
8:46 am
8:48 am
noon i met race stores once before and he said something to me in that conversation i'd heard from other confederate heritage supporters. but ray was the only one who set it on camera. you'd said that slavery was, it was a natural condition. i don't know exactly what i said back then. but i remember the energy, the relationship between the slave and the master was in except the thing and a, it was there was a love between i want to sure i understand what you're saying here. that, that, that the natural range. and you're saying that in united states in mississippi, that it was a natural fit. slaver was natural and that means the relationship could be a natural thing, could be yes, it could be now that could be people who felt like it was on that type of slaves. some of them perhaps. so you think we just, i'm?
8:49 am
yeah, don't think of majority frames for okay with the position. yes. i just accepted it as a as their station in law. do you see a situation where blacks could be masters to wines? would that be that? would that be now? um yeah, i think in some cases, you know, i had a, a, a supervisor when i work at a department store one time that was black and lots of orders from here did what he told me to do. yeah. but you have your freedom piece. do you have your liberty? could you imagine a situation where you were at the slave of a black mass for the? well, let me just say that that's not something that i can just fully comprehend. and imagine right here here and your questions that i'd be happy to think about. okay. yeah, i'm just curious on one of those new ways,
