in the position of being too much of an accommodationist - an uncle tom. - and muhammad ali and jim brown are representing the militancy of the time, and jackie robinson is being criticized for not being sufficiently an advocate for this position. - and he had been the most radical - how could you have been more radical? - exactly. there's a wonderful historian, yura williams, who says the definition in the 1940s of black masculinity is jackie robinson, but by the 1960s that has tired, and so you have a muhammad ali and a jim brown, and carlos smith at the olympics. - at the olympics, right, fist in the air. - that becomes and some of the more radical folks, at the same time our laws are being transformed in civil rights acts by lyndon johnson. there's a kind of impatience that it's not really working, and it's not happening fast enough. there are a lot of people who migrate to a more violent posture, a more militant posture, and so we're trying to understand it, and jackie got caught up in that, just as dr. king did. he was often there's some very pointed comments by malcolm x talking ab

elected sheriff lee baca and nfl hall of famer jim brown have started an intensive self-improvement trainingunty jail. the course was originally designed to help reduce the racially motivated violence that was occurring daily within the walls of the jail. >> we needed to take that environment and make it a productive one where people could actually reflect on their problems, get involved in our programs, and leave this jail better than they were when they came in. >> the program is called amer-i-can and it's a 60-hour program that takes 42 days to complete. amer-i-can accepts any inmate regardless of their arrest charge and past criminal history. >> it teaches an individual to take control of their own lives. it gives them life skills ab fundamentals that allows them to take control of their own life. you need an investment in education. a real investment in it. you'll need strong, fair, just law enforcement. what i'm saying here is you need a balance. you must put it into the education but you also must deal with the situations. that's a fair way of putting it. >> the rate of racially based

jack hamper, dick but cuss, jim brown, you know, those guys were tough and they played to play the gamewant to see them play for years, you know. i hate to see guy get hurt today and play with that broken leg or whatever broken back, whatever and then we don't have him in couple of years he's already played out. he's all right burn out because he played with those injuries. >> steve, you're an out of towner i'll give you a pass here. all right. so just understand that part of it. i want to see tough guys. that's all. i just want to see tough guys and today because of the union, because players aren't as tough as they used to be, because they're worried about their money, and that's why they want to play a lot of years. judgment understand this, steve, i know you're in savannah, georgia they're not as sharp down there as they are up here. guys in the nfl the average lifespan of a player is 4.5 years any way. so just give it everything you got. that's all. not big deal. it's not hard. right? it's not hard. and say hello to the people in savannah g good for me, will you, because i'm sure t

she makes comparison to jim crow, brown v. board of education. is she right? >> she is right.we think about brown v. board of education, the courts said separation and segregation does something to the inside of a child. there are ways in which we set people aside, we separate them, we segment them, treat them differently, we do something to their dignity, it's an assault on their dignity as well as an assault on their rights. so the attorney general is doing the tough, smart attorney general is supposed to do, which is to enforce the law fairly. she did what she had to do. >> another issue close to your heart, ferguson, missouri, today, swore in its first african-american police chief today. have they moved on? are things in ferguson moving in the right direction right now? all of us remember what happened a year ago. >> i'm not sure if ferguson has moved on, but they've certainly moved forward. and the fact that they have a police chief that reflects the community, not in terms of skin color but in terms of policy, in terms of policing that is responsive to the needs of the

united states to do something about jim crowe and it's not surprising that if you look at the brief, particularly brief filed by the u.s. state department in the brown versus board of education decision, which reverse it is ferguson decision of the 1890's, jim crowe was legal and constitutional, brown versus board of education, decades later reverses that particular charge. you cannot begin to understand why brown versus board of education took place without understanding the international situation, without understanding the role of the left which has international alliances because i dare say that if you look at the history of colonialism and the united states is exhibit a in terms of colonial regimes, what's striking about the colonial regimes those in north america and south africa, if you look at the devolution of regimes of oppression being jim crowe and slavery in the united states are apartheid, you cannot begin to understand them without understanding the external pressure. for example, you cannot understand the democratic elections in south africa in april 1984, but understand the role of cuban troops who defeat it had apartheid military i

we saw it in the jim crow laws that followed the emancipation proclamation. we saw it in brown v.f education and we saw it in the ban of same-sex marriages to stop any hope that gays and lesbians could have the right to be married. that right is now a guaranty embedded in our constitution. in the wake of that triumph, we have seen bill after bill in state after state taking aim at the lbgt community. let me speak directly to the people of the great state, the beautiful state, my home state of north carolina, you have been told that this law protects vulnerable populations from harm. but that is just not the case. instead, what this law does is inflict further indignity on a population that's already suffered far more than its fair share. this law provides no benefit to society, and all it does is harm innocent americans. let us reflect on the obvious but often neglected lesson that state sanctioned discrimination never looks good and never works in hindsight. it was not long ago that states, including north carolina, had other signs above restrooms, water fountains and on public a

brown mobilizes people. throughout the primary season, carol, endorsements have come with or without a little extra gas. a little extra push. way become in the south carolina primary jimyburn's endorsement meant a lot because he had an organization on the ground. we are remains to be seen what jerry brown has that he can mobilize. and it especially matters in california not just because it's a huge state that takes up half of the west coast, but because the primaries actually decided congressional district by congressional district. so it's not enough to be hugely popular in berkeley or in los angeles. you've got to sort of spread the activity around quite a lot and it's quite an organizational feat. >> with the interesting thing about this is you would think that governor brown might endorse bernie sanders because they have similar messages, right? >> well, it's certainly was possible. and he makes -- he takes pain, i think, if you read between the lines, of his letter of endorsement to say that bernie sanders has run a great race. bernie sanders is a very nice guy. and that's in order to, i think, you know, sort of make clear to his liberal base that he hasn't compl
