them across the presidential candidate joe biden has donald trump's response to nationwide protests over racism and police brutality he is accuse the president of funny the flames of hate. for president trump has pose for photographs at a shrine honoring the late roman catholic pope the archbishop of washington d.c. has condemned his visit saying listen warship should not allow themselves to be used in such a way. and thousands of protesters across the united states meanwhile are continuing their demonstrations a week after the death of george floyd in police custody a curfew in washington d.c. is due to be enforced in just under half an hour. on my phone bride is a pastor and the rector of the live free campaign at the group faith in action he also worked to win the white house on the president barack obama and joins us now live from oakland sir thank you so much for joining us here on out. first of all as
1:37 am
a pastor i'd like to get your reaction to the images that we've seen of president trump both on monday evening when he came out of the white house and posed in front of a church with a bible after having made sure that riot police. dispersed protesters with with tear gas and rubber bullets and then also what we saw on tuesday when it went to the shrine dedicated to pope john paul the 2nd what do you make of this use of religion at such a specific time. 1st i'm glad to be here with your partner i will say i am outreach donald trump is that democrats are. engaging in blasphemy is acts by politicizing the holy and sacred spaces of people of faith of christians to cover his immoral and we get a political agenda and i join with millions of christians in this country who find donald trump to be the exact opposite of everything jesus stood for and certainly
1:38 am
we in our churches stand for white evangelicals and filed this foolishness will be left to carry the shame for years to come it is an outrage it is an outrage you call it an outrage does it surprise you though i wonder and i'm thinking you know the president for example and his anti immigration rhetoric has often used a lot of islam sentiments so maybe in that context one might expect him to fall back on his version of christianity but in this particular case when it comes to the issue of black lives matter and police brutality doesn't surprise you that he's using religion in christianity as a sort of perhaps fig leaf some might say. it's not about being surprised it's about being outraged and we should remain outraged at this christoph bashes approach of attempting to politicize. religious spaces and believes
1:39 am
even the very group of people who are being abused by this particular leader in his policies lack wise matter is an extension of the civil rights movement was in his extension of the longstanding struggle for black liberation coming out of the black church in other sacred spaces in allegiance donald trump is the exact opposite of anything that is legitimate and moral and whether he does it with our muslim brothers once whether he uses atheist or agnostic troops donald trump does not deserve the benefit of the doubt to use that which we find to help us make meaning in this world to cover his diabolical agenda and we will continue to be outraged about it surprised maybe not outraged until he's out of office we will continue to be outraised and call it out unfortunately an incident like the killing of george floyd is far from the isolated and there of being the various cases before that and
1:40 am
i suppose the difference though is that a lot of them are caught on video which obviously makes a difference when it comes to perhaps turning this into a turning point in race relations in the u.s. you think that perhaps having a divisive president like donald trump may help to galvanize that change and that movement behind the black lives matter and not just from the african-american community but also from white americans as well. well i'll say it like this donald trump is not cool matt meehan but we must appreciate that right now in progressive cities where democrats governor we still are seen to tally not because of damage but because of the inability of local leaders to rein in their police departments and that is why we are launching an initiative that was to have mayors police chiefs police union presidents in shares make a public place which you cannot be a racist and be
1:41 am
a cop in 300 years of law enforcement in this country we've not even made that commitment that if you are a racist if you identify with the ku klux klan with the right with white supremacist groups with neo nazis you cannot be a cop and right now we believe it is not up to donald trump to decide it it is up to all of us in our cities and communities make the play it public you cannot be a racist and be a cop in list if you're donald trump in november but right now we could be encouraging our police departments of races right now to day make the plant is what we're going to be calling on elected officials to do democrat republican independent libertarian make the glitch and do you think that because of what's happened not obviously the tragic not just the tragic killing of george floyd but what's happened to same sex the country are you perhaps optimistic now that a pledge like you describe will happen sooner rather than later. i hope so but you
