of the 3.3 million new californians who arrived between 1992 and 2012, 3 million were either latinos or asianbecause of their growth, knees new voters have become a larger sector of the state's voters. take a look at this chart. we see latinos going from 9% to 22%. asian-americans, 3% to 11%. quadrupling this voting populations. together, in 1992, these two groups representing 12% of the electorate. for 2012, they were a full third of the electorate. >> that is really an extraordinary change in a fairly short amount of time. one generation. how has that affected the state's politics and who is getting elected into office? >> that's where it gets interesting. these voters have not only become a larger percentage of the electorate but increasingly democratic. in 1992, 58% of latino voters went with the democrats. by 2012, 72% of latinos chose democrats. for asian-americans, it is even more interesting. 42% voted for the democrats in 1992. by 2012, 79%. >> almost double. >> sided with the democrats. we have a confluence trail really here of two major changes. one, more minorities and higher perc

latinos on their board and one of the strategies to do that is to work with african americans who are on corporate boards and women because in reality women of all backgrounds, african americans, asian, latino americans are all underrepresented in the governance in our companies in america. we identified some various companies where there are african american directors and no latinos on those company boards. the reverse is true, where there are latinos on company boards burr no african-americans and if each of us who is in that situation were to recoup someone are the other community for example my case, i joined time warner cable board in 2006. we had no african-american's on that board. today we're the only one of five companies in america that has both african american, lat dean know and asian board members. >> corporate changes must start with board directors before change trickles down. >> it's one of the most segregated places in our society. we have seen huge changes in our country in 40, 50 years. but it is easier to elect a black man president of the united states than it is for about 150 companies to find a black man or woman to sit on their board. >> according to the 2014

as you can see with the chart the psa children -- asian and latino american children represent 61% of our total enrollment and i think you see why this is is because we've had a real emphasis on helping children from low income communities accessing preschool and we started that way rolling out. this next slide which i think is impressive when you compare it to other communities in california and the nation shows that we have increased preschool attendance of four year olds in san francisco and 80% enrollment in san francisco which is really high but we're proud that we have seen an increase in our african-american students from 68% to 79% and for latino students from 54% to 80% . this slide talks about family income. we compared children who are pfa when entering kindergarten compared to non pfa students and you can see these students earn $35,000 per year or less and again that's because we really try to reach out to the low income communities first including all the children in the district and in head start. this slide just gives you a little break down of where our preschool for

and they happen across colleges across the country, in the african-american community, in the latino and asianunities. these are these constant assaults that students are under, right? and many colleges just don't do enough of the work. it's heavy lifting to do social justice work. it's really heavy lifting to do anti-racist work. and i think there's a lot of lip service paid to it. i think there are a lot of apologies made after the fact, and commitments by -- >> i just want to interjects you speak. what we're seeing is new video tonight of protests at the university of oklahoma over this issue. go ahead, professor. >> so yes, their apologies can be accepted by whomever wants to accept it. but let's be very clear, these words carry meaning. for not just the students on the campus who are african-americans but the students who consider themselves allies. it's not just about the two boys who led the chant but the members on the bus that sang along. they need to be held accountable, as well. if you consider yourself an ally, you don't condone that behavior. whether alcohol is consumed or not. le

now, let me explain something in terms of how this great recession hit african-americans, latinos and asian americans particularly hard. millions lost their homes thanks to the predatory lending practices. these homes and what took place has devastated communities and for example, since african-americans especially hold nearly all of their wealth, 92%, quite frankly in home equity, all of this wealth was lost. because of this now african-americans' net worth is about seven cents to a dollar in terms of white americans. and this was all as a result of the greed of wall street. yet it seems that my republican friends are not concerned about another devastating financial crisis, since their budget, this budget threatens the consumer financial protection bureau which we need desperately to make sure that consumers are protected from what took place in terms of the great recession. we need oversight agencies that protect our consumers and their finances. and so we've got to continue to protect consumers through the consumer financial bureau, protection bureau, and support dodd-frank reforms to a
