lives and property in america's black cities.". welcome to the program. guest: thanks for having me. host: jackson, mississippi in the water problem. talk about the actual problem and what you think of the causes. guest: there is flooding throughout the south over the last few weeks during the summer and one of the incidents was acutely related to the flooding of the main water system there. water coming in from the pearl river. it overwhelmed it. the plant was already compromised. we kind of used deferred maintenance and it disabled the pumps and filtration systems and 150,000 residents were not able to get clean water for a week. now, this was one of several over the last year and a half. many people may remember during the winter last year when about one quarter of the residents had clean water. it is clearly an issue around a broken system, broken infrastructure, at least from the water system there has been in a lot of talk in the media that one of the actual cost because this issue is years in the making, no one denies that.

in a democracy that works for black america, and works for all of america.t be through voter suppression, whether that would be through the january 6th insurrection. whether that be through police or state violence, or through white supremacy, which drives a lot of what we're seeing. so alarming with the president is there, what we need to do is use political muscle in the civil rights community, and also, among elected officials, to push this agenda forward. >> that's what civil rights attorney damon hewitt, who along with leaders of seven other black-led civil rights organizations declared a state of emergency for democracy earlier this week. those leaders met with president biden today on the heels of the presidents own stark warning last night, about the growing threat to democracy from authoritarian and white supremacist voices in the republican party. joining us now is a damon hewitt, the president and executive director of the lawyers committee for civil rights under law. mr. hewitt, thank you for being here tonight. >> thanks for having me, alex. >>

. >> i need to ask this question, i think, what does it mean to be black in america? >> well, i'm an african person, i'm a black person. i didn't know that the first 18 years of my life, and this is one reason why the work of miss hubbard and brother kendi and brother but maurice ruffin is so important i. i didn't even know it existed and until i got to college. i went to school, in my home state of new jersey. my first generation -- subtly i knew i was back because my mother, single mothers raised me, culturally. , she sent me to school to get an education. she didn't know that going through schools would actually brainwash me to hate myself, to my skin, my nose, my lips, everything. literally, 13 years of education is part of being a student, k-12, all i learned is that black folks were slaves. that was one paragraph or two. and that dr. king had a dream, and both parties didn't even proceed. when we talk about racism, the great term that you make, made popular and necessarily popular, anti-racism, for many, the first thing of being black is actually knowing that you

and, you know, to this question, karen, the i think this is a question that i think black america fans, you know, in particular have always struggled with because you really asking a question about and and black americans in particular have never truly felt home, you know, in the united states. you know, even when we go back to, let's say in west africa, we may not even necessarily we feel completely home and so in many ways, black americans don't even feel like they have nation. but then other scholars, you know, starting with people like dubois, have argued, we do have a nation. black america is our nation, right? we have a nation within nation. and, you know, it sort of reminds of even langston hughes when he wrote, of course, in his poem, too, am an american. but then 40 years later, malcolm x said in a famous speech that i'm i'm not a republican. i'm not a democrat. i'm not even american and got sense enough to know it. you know, one of the 22 million black victims of the democrats of the republic kids, you know, of the americans. and so in many ways, i think there isn't necessari

the first thing that comes to mind is the shooting of rihanna taylor being a black person in america. we are not given the same rights as as others. and you know, we see black death day in and day out on our show. we talk about black death every single day. this is a shooting. that was, of course unnecessary. this was a shooting that could have been done could have been handed handled so many different ways. you know, a lot of people on our show and online wondering what made this cop shoot this man within not a nanosecond. games of opening the door and like you said in the opening, he was unarmed. it was a vape pen that was found next to him. and i just wonder, you know, when is there going to be a day where black death is not going to be so popular to talk about every single day in america? that detail of why did officers opened fire? hasn't been answered either by the officers or the police chief of the columbus police department. we know the mayor of columbus is calling for patients and in his words grace as the ohio bureau of investigation is doing an independent review of the sh

honoring those who fought and died to keep black america, like my ancestors, in bondage. so i drove down there to learn for myself just how deep these roots are buried. i'm looking for understanding. for something that will make sense in this moment. along the way, i visited monuments. those are that are not so easily removed. artifacts, small enough for some to ignore. landmarks, too big to take down. that reside in our memory, and in our blood. because the fight was always more than just a statue. beautiful morning in frederick ville, virginia. i didn't want to take this journey alone, so i asked my friend, a reporter from the new york times to join me. to help me process what it all means. >> what is going on? or >> good to see you. >> we talked about race in history, how his people came from trinidad. and mine from the slave trade. in 2017, the city council of fredericksburg, took out the question whether to remove a slave auction block that stands in the corner of downtown. >> where about to see an auction block where people were sold. what's crazy is we look at the

and black america are looking references for tools, for items that might depict their experience and giving them a secondary life, a secondary meaning. moniz: artists are starting to use the material from the streets, but they're also starting to see how important the language that they're using in their worin terms of both assemblage but also, you know, metal work that comes out, and there's so much to be said. there are so many stories to tell, and the language that they're giving to the community and then broadcaststing out into larger communities, it was really a pivotaloment that, i think, you know, a lot of people, particularly lots of larg institutions, didn't necessilpick up on, but, you know, it didn't matter. that wasn't the goa that wa't the audience. the audience was the communities that these artists lived in and supplying them with language that would support them, sustain them, and give them opportunities to grow. greenfield: sometimes i look at, you know, institutions, some institutions, as positio

and the national review looked at the state of black america.s edited by alan, who is ceo of the center for urban renewal and education. the conservative magazine describes the essays in this book as offering a, quote, empowering message of individual responsibility, inspired by black men and women of astounding ability. >> and finally, when it comes to new books, the wall street journal recently reviewed the study of the federal reserve. the fed unbound is described in paper, as a nuanced volume that will help you understand what the fed is up to. each month, book tv has a program called in-depth. we bring on one author for a deep dive in his or her body of work. recently, talk show host, author, and gubernatorial candidate, larry elder, was our guest. here is how he responded to one call. >> you're quite right. this is the wealthiest country in the world, and there is no reason why we should have this kind of problem. but mostly, people who are homeless, they have other problems, mental problems, they're alcoholics, or they're addicted to drug

i think this is a moment for black america to come out of the blm era and say we will not embrace defeatictory that is inherent to the idea that america was built upon. that -- people like booker t. washington and other black entrepreneurs throw out history. worse than black americans had today that managed to do that. that is an idea, we have to get back that idea to state the effects of this. will: you said you actually didn't disconnect, you connected the idea from the organization. there will be those, thinking of mark cuban of the dallas mavericks. the organization itself had communist underpinnings, communist ideology, and donators, and the organization, and stands for progress. black lives matter. and the ideas give rise to the organization. >> when you assign it that is not valuable. not as a black man but as an individual and especially as an american, and and can't control their skin color, and put emphasis on that. there are racial problems in america, who don't address that and bigger emphasis on waste, deemphasizing rates, embracing colorblindness and proceeding from that pr

and you don't get to steal the name black lives matter. >> jesse: $10 million goes missing and the irs is nowhere to be found. corporate americaver made it to the pockets of black victims, do they? the democrats favorite charity looks more crooked than the clinton administration? where is the congressional black caucus? i haven't heard a word from them. have you? the people in the streets want to know where the money is. dr. bob goodson is a former civil rights leader and founder of the woodson center. it's a real tragedy here, dr. woodson. >> it really is. they have exploited the goodwill of the ones you saw there. they have also sacrificed the well-being of thousands of blacks over 20,000 blacks are killed by other blacks since -- when black lives started in 2014, there were 14,000 deaths. that number has now risen to 20,020,000 blacks. they claim it's a legacy of slavery and institutional racism. and this is patently untrue in fact, i was born in 1937 in auto low income black neighborhood. we were low income segregated and black but we were also safe elderly people could walk safely without fear of being assaulted by grand

which means at the convention he said, we are not red america, we are not blue america, we are not black americaamerica, we are the united states of america in english this is played out uardo united will take place america yes. and of course he said i would the most unifying president when he stepped down from power. in 1916, it was called the most device by the president himself, who pushed the split apart in general and aggravated the conflict and contradiction, and so on. biden is his main slogan, when he came to power i will be the unifying president. wow, a unifying president that half the country calls fascists, but excuse that. this is very irresponsible. i'm surprised. he has been in the senate for 50 years and held very important posts. and this man is playing with fire. and of course, i'm watching with great concern because i want to finish with what trump somehow warned. you know, my supporters live in the outback, and they are all armed, and if i call out. and they actually react accordingly. it was a not-very-veiled threat not to play with fire. here we mentioned the neuron today,

black. >> america has a pre-existing condition called racism. >> senator warnock believes america is a badntry full of racist people. i believe we are a great country full of generous people. warnock wants to divide us. i want to bring us together. i'm herschel walker. i approve this message. >> sean: i guess the polls are bringing out the senate candidates for the democrats because it pennsylvania tonight, john fetterman is now agreed to debate dr. mehmet oz. will the phony spoiled socialist trust fund brat in a hoodie, is he going to follow through? from both states, debates need to take place before a single vote is even cast. that's only fair for voters. here now is georgia senate candidate herschel rocker. before i get to one change in the dynamics, raphael warnock supports court packing, and into cash bail. he was involved in the youth camp kid abuse scandal. didn't want the police to interview the people involved. he has praised louis farrakhan, reverend jeremiah right, he's compared the police to thugs and gangsters. he wants a grid of fossil fuels. he wants crt in our schools. he

but i realized, actually, no, there's a bigger beast in america that i'm not free, which is race. i became blackamerica and that it was a that was another lord that i didn't know. there's no way i can crack this open. so definitely it was as a choosing to be black america and of course what the what comes with that and i saw what with that or went back to my and not being able to love the way i want to love and also oh by the way to being looked down upon as this working class girl company. i told kingston so it was it was that when i when i stumbled upon that that black i realized i'm not really free but the only way i found freedom was through my writing i wrote my way out. i'm most free when i'm writing. and as soon as that sounds it's i almost free when i'm writing. so right now i'm speaking you. i'm not free. but when i'm my work, i am free. and that's where find my freedom, right? i yeah, i, it's really interesting when we think about this idea of freedom because you, you up that question of can you connect harriet jacobs to someone like beyoncÉ. right and i think about one of the earlier

through what they are right now, but we absolutely need to show the american public, particularly black america, that this legislation that was passed is going to address this issue, and ask the black voters to remember who voted for the bipartisan infrastructure bill, and who did not vote for it, come this november. >> and we must make sure local officials bring that infrastructure bill money back into those communities that have been disproportionately impacted but you're right, if it wasn't for president biden and the democrats in congress, we wouldn't even have that. thank you thank you very much, congressman marc veasey. >>> joining me now is fema administrator, deann chriswell. administrator chriswell, thank you for joining us tonight. and of course, i have to start with the situation in jackson, mississippi, where now roughly 150,000, mostly black residents, are headed into their second week without clean water after a crucial treatment plant failed last month. >>> president biden has since issued an emergency declaration. and is meeting with civil rights leaders on friday, and we talked

community's needs. >> black america and its allies rushed to the doors of one united bank. >> if youfor generations and not just for a moment in time >> the phrase here, kevin, is, using innovative technology to help close the racial wealth gap. that sounds good, but how does it work? we lost the answer to that question but our thanks to him. interesting to hear yet another bank seater, david, talk relatively optimistically about the consumer in the face of all the negative news the market is getting hammered with. >> without a doubt we see many other data points that continue to indicate the consumer spend is strong if you listen to the ceo of fedex, for example >>> we're going to let you check out the biggest laggards on the s&p for the week ceos which have been with us on cnbc in the last 24 or so hours. w with that surprising deal at a very high price, and the orenon fexafemtieded this tiny payment thing- is a giant pain! hi ladies! alex from u.s. bank! can she help? how about a comprehensive point of sale system... that can track inventory, manage schedules- and customize orders

racism has been the norm in the us since the advent of the first black slaves. in americaer the civil war between south and north, when the last southerners won the veterans created the ku klux klan, not everyone knows that there are three periods in the history of this organization and at first everything was not as scary as one might imagine. at first it was such a club of interests. yes, and the club, where, in general, well, still quite active people tried to somehow have fun there and forgot to spend time. they didn't have any specific goals. moreover, for some political purposes , moreover, this is the ideology of racial intolerance. it wasn't there in the first place either. well it wasn't like uh as an important element, yes, which united all members of this organization, whites, hoods and robes, members of the ku klux klan used to scare people, including blacks, as the organization expanded as it parted with you, well, members are considered, which is at the peak of its existence. first doll. he included about half a million six hundred thousand, the maximum figur

sonnie: i got called out that i was watching the irish do it but i'm not going to say how much black americaorrible and if this is the worst what trudeau has compared to what she went through on twitter that was a piece of cake because it was terrible in the twitter verse. >> greg: yeah. dr. drew, is there one likeable thing you can find about this clown? i can't. >> dr. drew: the heir. >> greg: oh, his heir's nice the hair's suffice you have great heir. don't put yourself down. >> dr. drew: i have different kind of heir. >> greg: it's really well manicured like a beautiful lawn. >> tyrus: it's almost not real. >> dr. drew: i didn't expect. >> tyrus: too perfect. >> greg: and arian lawn. white makes right on your head, only on your head. . >> tyrus: i don't know what -- cuss now, doc. >> sonnie: yes, yes, good time >> dr. drew: too easy. >> greg: dripping out of all my orifices. >> tyrus: wow >> greg: now i have allergies my eyes are leaking, my nose is running >> kat: allergies don't do that. >> tyrus: they really don't. >> greg: i'm falling apart doctor. is this a live intervention? >> dr.

but as you know, it is one of the oldest summer resorts for black america in this country.me ring and living at martha's vineyard in large numbers for well over 100 years and have been there for hundreds of years. it is an integrated community before that plane arrived. absolutely. >> and it's a diverse community. you mentioned the wampanoag tribe -- native americans who, of course, have been in massachusetts and in this country for centuries. and african americans, the same on the island, have been part of the fabric of the island for a long time. but what was so beautiful about the response was, everyone mobilized, regardless of the demographic, regardless of the political affiliation, to do what was right in to do what was necessary, to help folks in a time of need and to really demonstrate the values, not only of this country but of massachusetts. and i'm really proud of that, it's an example that massachusetts continues to set, that we are about helping people doing the work, not political stunts and not wasting peoples time. and being, frankly, non compassionate in th

host: evaluate black lives matter property in america's black cities. indiana, go ahead.ler: i think when he is talking about investment, the gentle man is referring to an investment by the federal government or the state. a lot of cities, when they look to investment and rebuilding infrastructure, they look to the capital system to try to bring in businesses to do that. i can see that in louisville in particular where there have been several businesses that wanted to open and the community itself stop that. also, an analogy that may fit this gentleman's criteria a little bit better. i live in a rural area and our infrastructure is shared, our water company is a rural water company that was started by our town. we voted on things and established that and then our fire department is also a volunteer fire department, and we pay for that with our taxes. we actually just -- i think it was a couple years ago, within our township and our county, we actually have our own taxes to buy better equipment and things like that. you know, i would like people to take a more realistic ap

and, you know, to this question, karen, the i think this is a question that i think black america fans, you know, in particular have always struggled with because you really asking a question about and and black americans in particular have never truly felt home, you know, in the united states. you know, even when we go back to, let's say in west africa, we may not even necessarily we feel completely home and so in many ways, black americans don't even feel like they have nation. but then other scholars, you know, starting with people like dubois, have argued, we do have a nation. black america is our nation, right? we have a nation within nation. and, you know, it sort of reminds of even langston hughes when he wrote, of course, in his poem, too, am an american. but then 40 years later, malcolm x said in a famous speech that i'm i'm not a republican. i'm not a democrat. i'm not even american and got sense enough to know it. you know, one of the 22 million black victims of the democrats of the republic kids, you know, of the americans. and so in many ways, i think there isn't necessari

difference. >>> welcome back the our report tracking the playbook used against dissent and black art in americat now atlanta prosecutors are treating poetry as criminal evidence against two black artists who are legally presumed innocent. but they're in prison right now tonight. that's before their trial. the case cites their lyrics 11 time as supposed criminal evidence. now, that's striking. because white artists on trial for violence don't ever see their art held against them in court, from johnny cash, who had several arrests back in the day, to just this year, johnny depp. all of that brings us back to jay-z, tackling injustice in this new song we reported on as well as history in this new interview. >> you got to remember, hip-hop was demonized when he first came out. after they couldn't get rid of us, they demonized us and started driing tractors over our cds. this is all history. >> history, as we showed you. people are listening right now. that drug war song is the title track of what is right now the number one album in the country. news. if you want the know what people are listening

. >> but just like if you want to build anything, buil beck amd black america, etc., however you wantr to call it, the blueprint needs to be solid. we need to hear plans.don't do h the republicans, if they get in and don't do anything, thenht nw they're no better than wha.t we're dealing with right now. so we need plans to people tor o get in, forget the lip servicek start, tell me how we're going to do it and get this country back on track.e wa stupidhink i know what hillary was doing here. she either fell for her and too at the stupid to realize no one was she doing that at the trump rally ors that i she knows it's bs, be just wants to say trump hitler b , salute, because then the media is going to writerump, stories and say, trump, hitler,i salute, that's the move. >> i don't i don't i don't know the move, ardino. >> the move. i know it better than she did. >> and in fairness, i don't i don't know what she's talking aboutt u fully, but i did seell somethin going around on twitter where there was this picture to look that they said was at a trump rally. >> i don't know if it wa know

i don't know that there's going to be an end, partly because life, partly because of black life in america and the amount of trauma inflicted upon us as well as as human beings that, you know, the desperate leanness in us. i bit what i was what i wanted to do in that was sort of just show these women kind of coming together through art through tamra's art. and that's actually something i must thank morrison for the notion our art, when i'm mildred he has the fall in love with you. jacob lawrence. and he has these paintings that she that was very much inspired by sula in and to misquote it. but the phrase we all know about a black woman not having art form but my other sort of theme in that the notion of a kind of art longing to do it but not being free to do it. angela trying be successful in a business that was just a mass and then and then. tamara, a filmmaker, is sort of a way of expressing that process. it's sort and they making a film about tulsa sort of an arc of trying to with that. so that's one way i've tried to deal with it in my work. it's but it's ongoing, you know, it's ongoin

it was to refute the shorthand narrative that the black experience in america was blacks emancipated,along aimlessly in in the face of severe obstacles and along came the civil rights movement in martin luther king. blacks have voting ri ri rightsd other rights, they're battled and mired in a country. after slavery the majority of black people could not read or write. in a relatively short period of time, they could. and in 1940, 80 some percent of blacks lived below the level of poverty and 20 years later that number had fallen to 47%. a 40 point drop in 20 years and greatest 20 year period of economic expansion for blacks in american history. why? reliance on family. many instances a black kid was more likely to be born to a mother and father married to each other than a white kid. reliance on american values. look at speeches by frederick douglas, replete with references to american values and judiah christian prin principles and bf in entrepreneur ship and a book called up from sheriff reigns leading, a man born a slave talks about working hard and learning a skill of value to the

in england, the first female prime minister, the first black president in america.o, the development of the world wide web, which had a huge impact on society. >> the queen announced technology, fully behind launching the website for the british monarchy. in recent years we saw her get behind a facebook page for the monarchy in 2010 and all these things were sent right to the top. she oversaw all those developments in technology. >> as head of state she was all too aware of a new kind of national threat. >> we in the u.k. have been dealing with terrorism for a long time, particularly after the second world war. a new wave of terrorism, islamic terrorism, had hit london. she observed a two minute silence. she was defiance, you can bomb us, but we will not falter. >> as britain became a more multicultural society, more accepting of divorce, the queen's family adopted when prince harry married meghan markle, a biracial american actress who had been married before. differences began to emerge and the couple made allegations of racism against members of the royal househo

black folks do to free themselves? i want to find that out. so i chose a title for that first one from langston hughes, and it was we too sing america. black people, as well as anybody else, worked hard to make america what it is. just saying, this is the fact, and you didn't learn it in school because it wasn't taught to us. i can't do the work as fast as i used to, but i have a lot of ideas that i would like to try out and i'm sure i won't be around long enough to try them all, but i hope that my quilts will serve as a way to say that there are no parameters to what a black quilter can do. but they encompass all different styles and techniques. and i think you can see all the different styles and techniques, if you look at my spectrum of quilts. they're parallel, the activism and the quilting, because both of them have always been a part of my life. because if you don't do anything while you are here you can't , expect society to improve. i am vera hall and this is my brief but spectacular take on piecing the past to the future. william: you can watch more brief but spectacular videos at pbs. org/newshour/ brief. and that is newshou
