it is easy to focus on the kkk. but you can avoid the kkk. but the police?ing to eventually have to deal with the police. a 2018 rutgers university study showed negative media portrayals which foster fear of black men were a significant factor in a five times higher rate of unarmed black men being shot by police than unarmed white men. that fear has justified not only excessive force, but also claims of self-defense. >> i think a lot of that has to do with you see us in mainstream media, we are dehumanized. so when antoine gets killed, it is like oh, that's a young black dude. >> reporter: you know how it goes. a black 17-year-old named antoine rose is shot and killed by a police officer, michael rossfeld who had been fired from a previous post for misconduct. antoine's community focused on the fact he volunteered, was an honor roll student. never been in trouble with the law. many outside his community focused on a drive by shooting he was allegedly involved in. his community finds it hard to focus on that since the officer shot antoine in the back. as he w

they are not the kkk yet but -- in its heyday, but, boy, do they want to be.e was a group called vanguard america that marched at unite the right and yo remember james fields who murdered heather heyer. she marched with that group. they kind of rebranded under this veil of patriotism and kind of to try to pull from the republican party schtick and make a more marketable version of what is essentially young nazi-ism -- neo-naziism. they have been successful in doing these marches where there are anywhere between 30 and 100 people marching on the street. they did something also july 4 last year or the july 4 weekend regarding, in philadelphia for example, they are picking these places that have historical importance in the united states. their slogan is "reclaim america." it is this idea of restoring amica to their imagined past. well, certainly america does have a deeply racist past, but they envision it as perfect version of united states that is going to come from their activism that is going to be essentially a white supremacist ethno-state stop amy: how do

you're the kkk guy. why would you film with the kkk? america doesn't even have that type of racism anymore. hmm. you're right. it's gotten way worse. >> jews will not replace us! >> and that was all before covid-19 and before four cops in minneapolis killed george floyd. rather than just treat him like a human. before protests, a police station burning to the ground. >> i'm in trouble, there's an african american man threatening my life. >> before too many karens, before flattening the curve. and through it all -- a president incapable of handling any of it at all. oh, look, baby's first bible! america is finally ready to get real about white supremacy. so, let's start super easy and basic. these are white supremacists. 44 white presidents out of 45 in a land originally 100% native american is white supremacy. white supremacy is a big complicated web of systems and institutions set up to keep power and privilege with one race. guess which one? ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >>> pittsburgh is a paradox. it's known as steel town, usa, but the factories that

the same year he was hired to carve the front of the mountain the kkk was reborn in a ceremony on top of the mountain. the same people were involved in the confederate memorial project and in the reborn kkk and he himself joined the klan and played a role in trying to bring it into national politics. because of the controversy, the monument was paused for a few decades and nothing happened until brown versus board of education in 1954. georgia's new governor put the confederate flag on the georgia state flag and bought stone mountain to make into a state park and finish the monument as a rallying point for those who wanted to uphold the ideals of the confederacy. klansmen continued to burn crosses on top of the stone mountain into the 70's when georgia finally prohibited them from using the state park. they just basically moved downhill onto private land. the klan was reborn yet again in 1963 on stone mountain in yet another ceremony. so i really want us to wonder how often does a site need to be used as a means of encouraging hateful ideology before we say, this isn't working, let's

so, the kkk trials were really a high water mark for republicans and for the federal government. during reconstruction, and during the 19th century, in asserting federal supremacy to really protect the rights of the nation's most vulnerable citizens. black americans wore could not receive this kind of protection from the federal government again until the 1960s. in the west, ely parker and sort of an interesting vision for the native citizenship and representation that he shared with grant and sort of pushed him to embrace, and grant was pretty amenable. parker was an asimilationist which meant that he argued for the abandonment of indigenous traditions and the embrace of christianity, english language, individual land ownership and other markers of american civilization. but he also imagined gathering indigenous peoples into one or two large reservations that would become territories and is then admitted to the union as states so that indigenous peoples would have consistent representation in congress. this was a completely novel idea at the time and i think in the years since t

it is during the kkk's work for them. it hurts working-class people of color.up but it makes them feel so good about themselves and holier than that because they don't have to worry about crime because they live in these upscale neighborhoods. the war in ukraine. let's fund that. gas is going up. it makes them feel good. they are taking uberse, they don't care. they don't feel it like the working class. the agenda built around flattering the vanity of liberal elites. i totally love what you said. this is an opportunity for republicans not to squander it, not to just use it to win these cultural battles but to make the lives of working-class and middle-class americans better. see the excellent point. and she watches "the five." that is my warm-up show. it's kind of fun. we do our best with what we have. up next, will john bolton have regrets for exposing a stash? for strong protection, that's always discreet. question your protection. try always discreet. this is john. he hasn't worked this hard to only get this far with his cholesterol. taken with a statin, leq

same it was rule for for white men, and i've actually identified about i think a few more than a dozen kkk assaults on chinese immigrants in california during this period and they very self-consciously mimic the rhetoric and they mimic the strategies of the clan in the south because they knew that those terrorists tactics inspired terror and they knew that they were effective. so whether or not there was any coordination between klansman and the south and klansmen in california. i don't think there's clear evidence for that, but it is very clear. that white california's knew what worked in the south and they very readily employed those tactics in their own state. i mean, they they beat back republican rule sooner than most southern states did. interesting and neil's has another question. this one is if in your research on enslaved african-americans in california, have you come across a a man named john wesley newsome? it was from north carolina originally ended up in california during the gold rush. and owned property that is now camp. twanaga near groveland and they're wondering the camp

they built a popular resort in 1912 and faced harassment from white neighbors and the kkk for years beforeity took the land through eminent domain in 1924. now the deed is back in the family's hands. >> this transfer of land will not reverse an injustice that took place almost 100 years ago but it represents a bold step in the right direction. >> my family declared this was sacred land and i was going to do everything i could to get it back. jobina: the county will now lease a lifeguard station on bruce's beach and they will eventually be able to sell for $20 million. reggie: political commentator is tackling racism had on out with a new book, an antiracist activity book called "do the work." he talked about it on our show. >> at some point i realized i'm saying the same things over and over again. i need to figure out new things because they have not solved the problem. it should be an antiracist activity book for adults. when we go to the dentist, every parent picks up highlights magazine. this is highlights magazine about racism. reggie: he started his tour earlier in san francisco and

now, you successfully prosecuted to kkk members for their roles in the 1963 birmingham church bombing place. talk to me about why it is so important that justice be served in these cases, even so many years later. >> justice should never be denied. it can be delayed, but it should never be denied. and i think the finding of this warrant is a really important development. i have for a long time felt that it would be very difficult to prosecute that woman for murder, with away it turned out. she had made certain admissions, but the murder case, there is no statute of limitations. it is tough. right now, with this warrant, what you have is that authorities felt at the time, in the 1950s, there was enough evidence to charge her with kidnapping. later mississippi laws, there's no statute of limitations for kidnapping. that is a very different crime that you could possibly prove, given her testimony, that she lied to authorities, dealing with the fact that she talked to her husband and the other man, who has admitted that they killed emmett till. the earliest opportunity -- whether or not a
