i remember clearly when the black house came out, worrying how it would be received on the islands.eive it, never mind the critics. there is a sequence that happens, involving ten men from the northern part of the island that go out to a rock in the atlantic and fish and i had done research with them and written of the experience and literally after the book came out i got an e—mail from the head of that group, i saw it was from him, dodds, mcfarlane, and i opened it up. he said that he and the boys had read the book and that they loved it. it was a big sigh of relief. and when people begin this book, they should make an effort with the gaelic glossary at the beginning of it will make all the difference. indeed. peter may, author of i'll keep you safe, thank you very much. thank you,jim. something marred on the way over the next few days. the way things feel at the moment, you may need some convincing. —— something mild on the way. the cold is in place over the country. the mild air is on its way. before it arrives we have one problem to deal with, a band of wet weather sliding in.

more black families have houses than ever before certainly during the obama presidency who was supposed to be the so-called black president because he likes to chop people up and divide of that way this president is the president of all people he said he wants all people to be as rich as him and yet where is they heralding of that in the media he is that these declare january human trafficking month is slavery not an issue we can all agree on where is that. the media i mean you can see the bias written all over them and for anyone who wants to argue that his tweets are somehow not presidential that's how he communicates his message because he has no other way since the press won't do it and we know that he's the counter puncher and you know what americans laid out here we are so tired of having a president that you know their hand up for us to the rest of the world and put america first this is not only this is not only not diminishing the presidency this is the president going forward steve you want to jump in there before we go to the break they. just they're putting this wolf charact

away from tables where black students are sitting, and any studies in that regard in respect to black housing or the so-called black dorms and how will minors get black dorms without the participation of the college of the -- are the colleges steering black students to black dorms or rejecting the whites who want to live in the black dorm, and so my question is a larger culture, andchool d editor of the schools who are rejecting integration, and who are rejecting the blacks on campus?e >> yes. i am trying to dig the negative of the question out there. and i am not saying this to be tongue and cheek. so, like every dorm at penn is the white dorm except for the black excone, right? i mean, the country that we livo in is segregated, so, like,rk n york city which per capita should have the most integrated schools in the galaxy has the most segregated schools, because there are other factors at play. so i just want to -- i totally don't want to answer the question. what i do want to do is just offer that there are other factors at playy around like tribalism and saying that you can assign a benevo

>> republican congresswoman diane black, house budget committee chair, member of the house ways and means committee, a tennessee gubernatorial candidate we'll talk in a moment. was with the president on his way to tennessee. congressman, let's first talk about what happened today because in 55 minutes, what the president did with that open meeting, opening it to the entire world, letting them see exactly what was being discussed with the ins and outs, democrats, republicans, both having a chance to push back equally, he was clearly the chair of the meeting. as melissa just said, this totally disarmed and is crazy and can't run meets like this. he did a brilliant job doing so, more than that in 5 a minutes, got more done bringing congress together on daca decision and immigration reform than probably days of arguments in either chamber of house. >> of course i was not in that room but i will tell you what i saw watching on tv, is the president, that i known over last year, i worked with him on repeal and replace of obamacare, tax reform on the budget issue, this is a president that engaged

about where whites are turned away from tables where black students are sitting --with respect to black housing, so-called black dorms, how can minority students get black dorms without the participation of the colleges. my question is the larger culture, the attitude of the white school who rejects integration and blacks on ca mpus. derrel: i am trying to dig out the nugget if the question. whitedorm at penn is a dorm except the black one. we live in a country that is segregated. new york city, which per capita should have the most integrated schools in the galaxy is segregated. i do not want to answer your question. i want to offer that there are other factors at play --tribalism. you can assign a benevolent ord or a malicious one -- at the beginning you spoke about the decision that showed great progress for the black community as a whiole until 1960's. what would you attribute to the turnaround in the direction of black communities in america? i was talking about the world home -- wartime economy that was lifting all folks, including blacks. there was a great migration to take advantage of

blacks are now going to count 5/5 rather than 3/5 for purposes of apportioning the house and electoral college. republicans need to guarantee suffrage for southern blacks but imposing black suffrage in the north runs the risk of alienating their constituents, who of repeatedly made it clear that they do not think african-americans in the north need to be voting. the first shot at solving the dilemma was section two of the 14th amendment which seem like med like the ideal answer to their problems. it creates a powerful inducement for southern states to enfranchise lacks by threatening to reduce their congressional representation if they continue to disenfranchise adult male citizens. that would place pressure on northern states less because there are so few blacks living in the north. the black population in the north very from less than 1% in or 2% in states like indiana or illinois. republicans adopted the circuitous route rather than simply maintaining black suffrage in the 14th amendment because they were frankly scared to go back to their constituents in the congressional election

i haven't heard anything about black unemployment being at a historic low and black housing being at gh -- >> i don't remember the president talking about that either. >> gina, gina, gina -- >> go ahead. >> i heard that statistic. i heard that statistic about black unemployment being at a historic low, four times yesterday on the media. and remember -- >> well, that's good! i'm glad you're hearing it. >> it's a question of his stability -- [ everyone talking at once ] >> let the governor speak. >> sure. >> listen, on the issue of stability, which is what we're discussing, it's not the media that brought up the issue of his stability. it was fellow republicans. it was friends of his. it was personal friends who questioned whether he was melancholy, questioned whether he was engaged. it was bob corker saying he questioned his stability. it was rex tillerson saying he was a moron. it was general mcmaster saying he doesn't listen. >> first of all -- >> that they have to defend by putting his name in stuff. it's not the media. >> do you just not believe it, gi gina? is that what it is? the

and black americans in general always have had access to the white house regardless of the administrationparticular to this election cycle you saw for the first time black republicans and black democrats actually come together under the the joint center and gather thousands of black resumes to present to either administration to be prepared. the scenario we came across over the last year is that we had a black democrat in omarosa blocking qualified black republicans from administration posts. >> hm. >> maurice. >> well, i mean i think it's not so much the pool of talent that's available. we know that there are strong black candidates for every position. the problem is we're having is the rhetoric and the outreach and the actions that are being directed towards the african-american community. this administration has in an historic wave has worked against and spoken ill of black people. we do not feel comfortable with this administration and he's gone out of his way to push african-americans away. >> when you say spoken ill of black americans. >> when you talk about when you try to rational

there had been a peek of 64 blacks in the mississippi legislature in 1873. in south carolina's lower house, which had a black majority during reconstruction, a single black representative remained in 1896. the last black southern congressman until the 1970's relinquished his seat in north carolina in 1901. sheriffs, justices of the peace, school board members, those were the most important governmental actors in the late 19th century. the preferred method of southern whites to deny constitutional rights to blacks was to administer broad discretion in a discriminatory way. disfranchisement was essential to the success of that strategy. it has to be the case that blacks are no longer voting for these local officials if they are to be trusted to administer their discretion in a way that will enforce white supremacy. once blacks were not voting it made it possible to exclude blacks from juries, to divert the share of african-american school funds to white schools, and finally the dramatic number of unpunished black lynchings. while blacks were voting for sheriffs, sheriffs had adequate incenti

black. i mean, you can't dance around that. but what i will say is, this white houset this issue wrong and there is collateral damage, as it was said before. i talked to some of the presidents of historically black colleges and universities, they are very upset, and one of the reasons is because they have an international component of students that come from africa and the caribbean and they're now going back to their student body to assure them that they're safe and everything is fine and we welcome them. once again, just like with the nfl, when the president got into that taking the knee stand, they lost money. the hbcus that are still trying to survive after meeting with the president last year, they're still trying to financially make sure they're stable, this could impact their dollars and students. like, you know, i talked to the president of tennessee state university, dr. glinda glover and she says 10% of her student body come from africa, international students. she says they come to study engineering, medicine, all sorts of programs that really would propel

he started his career discriminating against black people in housing. he called for the execution of the central park five. he started his political career being a birther. there are a myriad of examples where donald trump either espoused racist beliefs or did racist things through policy. and so it wasn't surprising, but it was so unfortunate on a week when we were honoring the legacy of dr. martin luther king jr. that the president would, with no sense of irony, stand there after saying racist things in the white house. >> how about from a republican perspective, joe is? what was your reaction? do you make any fact that ben carson, the only member of the president's cabinet attending that event? >> yeah. well, there continues to be a lack of diversity at the white house and the administration. it is just painfully obvious. you see the same people over and over at these functions. there should be african-americans on the single most levels of the white house. how african-americans feel about his policies. it's important for a president to hear what peo

19th deadline looms to keep the government open and moving, let's bring in house budget committee chair congressman diane black, and a member of the house ways and means committee, and i should point out, tennessee gubernatorial candidate. we wish you luck in that. got to talk about keeping the federal government open, congressman. okay. we have until a week from this friday. you can get it done? >> i believe we can get it done. ashley, it is so important for the american keep to keep the new year and economic development and enthusiasm with the upcoming year, with the tax reform, we see the economy is starting to move and don't need a little time into the new year to close down the government. it does not do anybody any good. need to get our work done and move to other things after that. >> are you concerned the daca agreement can be a stumbling block in getting a plan in place? the democrats say we want assurances for the dreamers, then we can go along with a spending bill. would that be a major stumbling block? >> the american people should be encouraged, we saw a president open to democrats and republicans

announcer: members of the all black caucus spoke on the house for about the legacy of martin luther king jr.. there were marks are just about an hour. is truly an opportunity for the young man who comes from ae city of philadelphia, product of the public school system and the product of community college. here today, in the city of many of my predecessors, our theme tonight is the history of the cbc and the legacy of martin luther king. week, we begin a celebration. a great man and patriot who loved america and the ideas of our democracy. up with dr. king comics that i cap -- comments that capture our political comment -- climate and what is at stake. "of all forms and inequality and justice and health care, the most shocking and inhumane" -- greate think about the leaders in our nation before us who came about to lay a great framework for equal pay, equality and housing, we are reminded of what is at stake and how much we have to lose in this current political climate. we have a lot to lose under the current administration's destructive policies. dr. king would be greatly disappointed a

the leading journalist of the day, and other black media outlets, turned on dr. king. so, the white house has turned on him. the media has turned on him. white folk turned on him. black folk have turned on him. and if that is not enough, inside his own organization, he could not get a consensus to support him on his opposition to the vietnam war. him to give want that speech in the first place. as a matter of fact if you read the story, his own organization, -- dr. king founded the organization. his board of directors passed a resolution to condemn him over his stance on the vietnam war. his organization. writes a resolution to condemn him. i would hate for them to come after me. -- i willrow -- negro start signing the checks around here. here is your pink slip. goodbye. don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you. but dr. king was so loving and so kind, he was going to adam's house for dinner. his organization is voting to condemn him, and he still got the same vote on the board, having dinner with them and trying to understand why they feel this way. this is what you call r

house and the senate have been silent on this. they need to grow a pair and speak up. why does it take the only black republican member in the house in the senate, mia love, and tim scott to come out and say something. donald trump and the republican leadership needs to read what love wrote because what she said was excellent. good for her. it is a shame that we are here now and shame on the republicans for being silent and someone in that room should come out and admit that this is what the president of the united states said and put an end to this speculation whether he did or did not >> we'll have haitian american assembly woman from new york to have her response to all of this. >> simone, the sad irony, this comes less than 24 hours before the president will sign this proclamation of martin luther king day and all that it means and all that he meant for this country. >> donald trump has no real understanding of, in my opinion of the legacy and the work of martin luther king. what's so problematic, donald trump quote on quote, explanation via twitter, he reenforces idea that haiti is just poor bec

skin color that you don't have the capacity to advise or to give or care about the black community in the white house. when you look back at president obama's term in office and the black people he had surrounding him, there was some decisions that many in the african-american community said how could we do that? you look at the change he did to the loans that affected the black community and the education space or what he did with cutting edge funding or the things he did not do in terms of funding. it doesn't have anything to do with skin color. jack kemp was somebody who cared about our community. and he was not black. if you look at the people that are in this cabinet, just because they are black doesn't mean they don't have the capacity to give solid advice to the president as it relates to our community is absolutely false. >> i see it differently and i'll tell you why. i think skin color can sometimes be a proxy for a certain set of experiences. maybe we should be more accurate about what e we mean. i don't see anybody in the cabinet who has deep ties with the african-american community or the

and let me first congratulate congressman richmond on his leadership of the congressional black caucus. the house judiciary democrats will also be joining the congressional black caucus in introducing that censure resolution. and look, what makes america great is that we don't judge you based on your bloodline or your skin color or where you came from. we judge you based on the content of your character. the president of the united states does not understand that. and that is why i join with congressman mamir love, a republican, to apologize. >> do you think the president is a racist? >> it is my common experience that a person who makes repeated racist statements is a racist. >> so you think he's a racist? >> absolutely. >> house speaker paul ryan called his comments unfortunate and unhelpful. republican senators tom cotton and david perdue who were in the meeting in the oval office say they don't recall the president specifically making those offensive comments. what does that tell you? >> it tells me that senators cotton and perdue are lying. if the president of the united states said the word

if you go back, president trump was discriminating against black people with housing units 40 years ago>> so you think he has a pattern of racism. >> i don't think there's any question about it. i don't take any joy in saying it. it is sad that he is the president of the united states. four years ago he was discriminating against people. he has a pattern of screwing workers, not paying them, waitress, waiters, electrical workers, small business people. over the years he just destroys people, insults people, screws them financially, over his entire life. so we're just seeing that pattern continuing. >> you hear supporters. they say, oh, no, this is about the president wanting this to be a merit-based system. do you see any other way than these being racist comments that we don't want people from africa, el salvador and haiti. >> of course we want people to come to the united states. we want to create businesses, innovate. they are small business people in the united states. of course they want to keep that. but there's also room in the united states from people who are coming from countr

to southern voters and saying you know if you vote for this person he'll basically let black people into your house essentially and so what i think you're seeing is this resuscitation of this southern strategy but it's being used that on steroids it's being used in this brand new way because for a lot of these voters they believed we were told you know african-americans are victims and then donald trump is telling them no no you're the victim and that's all you know this is all someone out i get i get the relation between trump and the voters and what i selling them what i'm also interested in what does what does everyone else do what all of us do who are watching this spectacle and say oh we are we in danger of unwittingly even normalizing if we just kind of get but down by the repetition of awful stuff and i think that you know i think there is an idea that i think some people had that trump would change or that could be influenced and i think you know trump in some ways it's a lost cause like i you know me writing about african-americans and their interest their dealings with this kind of trump
