and the black calhouns of atlanta. who are the black calhouns? they were an extended atypical african-american family for through 1865 to 1965, north and south, they're all so typically america in their dreams and aspirations. they were typically america because the founding brother, cal hup, he believed in the american dream. although he was a slave until he was 35 he was lucky because despite laws mandating literary for blacks, he had been educated by his owner. the first man to sign georgia's article of succession and the cousin that cool hewn was a powerful literal butler. moses was geographically lucky because he lived there. >> it gave him everything he needed for luck and freedom. bee site the 13th amendment which made him truly free. the 14th gave him equality under the law and the 15th gave him the vote. he was therefore an american citizen with all the rights of every other american citizen. as an enterprising an and intelligent man, moses took advantage of everything that reconstruction had to offer. i don't know what would have happen

we the masses, black lives matter, black panthers, etc.axine waters and barbara lee, they left with us. we just don't have enough of them. >> next question. i would like to have a sister as a question if possible. >> high -- hi, thank you so much. it is a pleasure. i wanted to know how were you all able to overcome and mobilize unsuccessfully for such a long time despite the initial resistance amongst our people and black people. how did you do it? i see no today with the whole colin kaepernick situation, he is taking a knee. there were a lot of black people supporting him. we had at least that were black -- we you had athletes that were black in the nfl who were highly against him that were retired and still playing. how do you all successfully make that happen with so much going on at that time? stephen: one of the things that the panthers did is that they had committed the problem -- community programs. that is one of the things that i hope black lives matter will start doing. because protest is great but it is not enough to know they m

they entered into black communities trying to develop black people because black people were inferior but since they are biologically equal they can be developed, they can be civilized, they can be improved. i show in the book that is a racist idea too. >> d. watkins, what would you like readers to think about? >> three things. i would like every reader to think more critically about race in society after reading the book. it doesn't ask you to change your perspectives what to think about these things. the traditions and information given to you versus your own thoughts and opinions of how these systems came about and how you can interpret them. humanity, we are humans, people, these people who die and who go through these things are people. you can be a ku klux klan member from mississippi or gangbanger from california, but put two of those guys in a room with free ice cream they are both going to take it. who is too racist for ice cream or too gangster for ice cream? we are taught we are so different but we have so much in common. and another thing, something i live by, the ethiopia

the nba was predominantly black. it was mostly black. most of the roster spots were taken up by african-americans. remember, basketball is an urban sport. basketball was created to fill the sporting needs for urban americans, the people living in cities beginning with the great migration during world war i, the northern urban cities were becoming more and more black, increasingly populated with african-american families. their children played basketball. and basketball was becoming an urban -- was an urban. therefore, basketball was more and more a black sport. by the 1970s, most of the nba players were black, and this caused a major public relations problem for the nba. as you know, and as we have discussed, people like seeing representations of themselves on the field of play. in the sporting arena. so for many white americans, the bulk of the paying customers for the nba at this time, they no longer felt like they were being represented in the nba. white americans lost interest in the national basketball association. so here is the in

men or old black men who looked like my father or young black women. and i think that that, i think sometimes we lie to ourselves when we believe that there is some type of objective neutral that exists.yp as reporters, as journalists, we all bring our life experiences into the stories we cover. when that's what stories we believe are worthy of our coverage or not, whether it's how hard we work to get that extra interview or how sympathetically we frame someone.ex so i think it's important to be up front and acknowledge who we are, and i think that helps us tell the stories more accurately. >> from they can't kill us all, between january and august '15, 24 unarmed black people have been shot by police while black men and women make up just 12% of the nation's population, they accounted for nearly 25 president of those being shot and killed by the police.. ken in southfield, michigan, you're on with wesley lowery, author of they can't kill us all. >> caller: yes, mr. lowery, i take a different view on all of this. why are young black men constantly invo

save white women, black women, black men, everybody from themselves. they tried, but were not successful. in closing, when i was in city hall, a kid came up to me, a student, and said, mayor, can the election.ter h make hillaryyou clinton the president? i said, i tried that yesterday. i was honest. it did not work. because in this country, the popular vote does not mean you become the president. and that is how we have to start explaining it. we do not have a democracy in america. [applause] mayor baraka: we do not have one person, one vote in america. republicans are clear, they call it a republic. it is not a democracy. we have to continue the fight for a democracy. all of us have to fight together in our individual organizations. if you are not in an organization, you have a problem. you have to be organized. once you get into an organization, you have to unite your organizations together around a common interest and you fight with other people who may not think exactly like you to begin to push the country further to become more progressive, more d

hen black lives matter and i want to say when black lives matter talk about black lives matter, what they mean is that black lives really do matter. long as we treat black lives dissupposable,r, we have not grown as a society. in 1999u begin the book in an episode in new york city, hat very well known, the killing. events as kindling for what is going on today. us more. a black man who stepped out on his back porch to go get something to eat after a long day a worth. this is regular. the four officers from the new upk police department pulled in front of him, guns blazing and fired 41 bullets at him. down.t 19 bullets hit. , no criminal nothing, but being a black man in new york city. at the time, have you broken policing theory governing the way the nypd worked. the ad hyper policing in black community. ight after that killing, rudy giuliani, who was mayor at the was talking to ted coppell. my way is working. had the show "crime going down," and i'm thinking, your policies are worked. on have an unarmed dead man a porch, hit 19 times with 41 bullets shot at him. your policies are wo

it is a black and blue issue begotten by our historic black and white issue. we know this is a country that has president obama was describe it was described by an original sin, racial inequity into the fabric of the nation, that is something we spent hundreds of years, some would argue we didn't spent most of the first you doing anything about it, we were happy the way we had it but since then spends time trying to undo that and make up for that but i do think because of that there is a historic relationship between black communities and law enforcement that dates back to the days police officers were slave catchers. there has been a historic relationship. the former chicago police superintendent gave a speech recently where he talked about so many policies, during jim crow or people leading the lynch mobs or enforcing housing or school segregation historically have been police officers. police for all of american history been the face of physical oppression from black and brown americans so sometimes we talk about how we can rebuild the relationship or resto

she became the first black member of the board of the screen actors' guild and the first black personppear on the cover of a movie magazine. despite allies of color, however, her scenes were always isolated from the main portion of the movie so that they could easily be cut out of the picture when-shown in the south. in fact -- when it was shown in the south. in fact, she was cut out of every picture she ever made in hollywood except for two when they were shown in the south. unless the cast was all black, the southern rules stipulated that blacks in movies could only be shown as servant types. nightclubs continued to be hugely theatrical venues for lena, from harlem's cotton club to boston's ritz carlton to greenwich village's cafÉ society to hollywood's little trock. and now in 1942, while she was waiting for her first movie to be released, she became the first black entertainer to appear at manhattan's very elegant savoy plaza hotel. once again, she was an overnight sensation, so well noticed that she was features in time, life and "newsweek" all in the same february 1943 week. nig

to testify against other blacks. that would be another situation where we actually are able to get blacks' own accounts of what happened. >> i remember at the time of the publication of sirens novel, it was a great critical and commercial success. it also prompted several black critics to speak out, and there was a book about that called "10 black writers respond." what was the nature of their criticism? professor breen: it was a cap i for about five years. one of the reason why there has not been as much work done on nat turner is because so much of -- everyone was upset, no one wanted to touch it. i came up after that, so i missed the first hand experience. there was this huge fight, and i think that there is two problems. the easy one, which i think it was too easy and too cheap, it did not work well, but the easy was he made mistakes. there was some things he got wrong, and the most important of those is that nat turner had a wife. he missed the source that said nat turner had a wife. he got some things wrong, bu

unemployment rate is twice as high as the black because black people are lazy don't want to work, or qualify, you're going to see discrimination. because again you believe racial groups are equal. so i am hoping that people really understand theve differences between antiracist and racist ideas. it's a simple difference. antiracist. antiracist believe racial groups are equal. racist ideas note that in some ways ofou certain groups is inferior or superior. and then i'll say also that as i stated with my opening talk,he when we are trying to confront these producers of racist ideas, again differentiating them from uni, the consumers what we're trying to confront them and their ideas education and persuasion is not going to work so it could work with us but if you are creating ideas to justify existing policy see are not creating those ideas because your some how ignorant hateful. you recognize the ways in which those ideas benefit, enrich you, manipulate others you recognize that. when we go to those people and persuade them otherwise that will not work, slick select trying to convince

is to shoot a black man. trevor: here is the thing. so let me ask you this then. if you say as you said when you walked out, i'm not as mean as people think i am. i am not the person people think i am, what do you wish people would understand about you in another bubble. what do you wish. >> i wish that we could disagree with each other without thinking that we are bad people or il intentioned folks. so because i criticize a black person or i criticize the black lives matter move, that doesn't mean i'm antiblack. it does not mean that i don't like black people or that i am a racist, it means i'm criticizing a move. i criminal sighted kol inkaepernick t doesn't mean i don't believe in his first amendment rights it means i believe in my pirs rights to criticize him. it it doesn't make me a bads person or racist so point out. i never used racial slurs to address people, i never looked down on people because of their skin color. to me true diversity is diversity of thought, not diversity of color. i don't see col

his blackness. is very blackness. ofcreated this kind of sense this domain of the white house, pinnacle of power, was now -- as i by someone ind, the penultimate aspiration and achievement, and you have little black boys and girls thinking, i too could be president of the united states. that is terrifying. theseis is why you see levels of policies come up, beginning with voter suppression. >> we have about 15 minutes with our guest. democratic collar, high helen. .> good morning good morning, professor anderson. of victims and victimization as per that last i think of the war on drugs as in the 90's. against african-americans, targeted as the -- and demonized compared to the $1 billion, the recent bill passed and pushed by the senate to help the victims of the latest opioid epidemic in a lot of states, and a lot of the people who are victims of the opioid epidemic are white. this is being pushed by the senate. they have approved it, and they are waiting for the funding i believe. but, can you compare and people whoe w

if anything, black achievement, black aspiration, and black success are construed as direct threats. obama's presidency made that clear. aspirations and their achievement provide no protection, not even. [inaudible] on june 17, 2015, south carolinian dylan roof, a white unemployed 21-year-old high school dropout was on a mission to take his country back. ever since george zimmerman had walked out of the courthouse a free man after killing trade on martin in a racially polarized motion in the verdict, dylan roof roof had the to understand the history of america, trolling through the internet he stumbled across a council of conservative citizens, try see. the progeny of the 1950s white citizens council that had terrorized black people, closed schools and worked hand-in-hand with state government to defy federal civil rights while. despite the groups avowed racist belief system, in in the mid-to-late 1990s, as the southern poverty law center reports, the group boasted of having 34 members who were in the mississippi legislature and had powerful republican party allies including senate m

there simply are more black mayors; there simply are more black representatives in the u.s. house; there... depending on how you measure the senate, there have been more black senators, and now there's been a black president. which means that we will have to not always think of ourselves as the outsiders, but sometimes as the insiders who are controlling the access, and we'll have to necessarily shed out own privileges in ways that we have often asked white americans to do. >> hinojosa: do you think that there is that kind of conscious understanding of "we have privilege and we have to share"? >> oh, no, because i think at this point, the focus group is still always white americans who have just vastly more resources and privileges, that it feels as though what we're doing is simply competing. you know, that there's just one piece of pie for all the blacks and browns, and all the blacks and browns must compete for that piece of pie. and what we have to recognize is, one, that the pie, like love, can grow. it is expansive; we can... >> hinojosa: oh, i love that! "the pie, lik

it looks like it's all black holes.we're talking in the community, it's all black holes, we're excited. the answers are much more freakily than we thought. you can't see black holes, and the reason we think they exist is because we see them cannibalizing a neighbor and we see what they're doing in their environment. we doesn't see them there. the two black holes are very dark, they're not doing anything to the environment, not tearing apart stars. there are no other ways to detect them. they're more populous than we thought and it might be that we detect black holes colliding every month that ligo is operational. >> and there's unknowable versus what is unknown. when einstein first envisioned those, a lot of this was unthinkable and not known and experiment is how we begin to see that we'll have to keep looking. astro physics to me is just so fascinating because it arises from the most elemental nature of reality, but it's no ripe with metaphor for so much. >> and i think we did evolve under a sky that we can see. it's

consistently publishes black resilience and black resolve. how else can we reasonably explain why government after government.. hard to keep black children from getting an education. we sought after the civil war. we thought all the way through the brown decision. we see it now. why is it so difficult to educate black children? educ why do we have this even when at least since 1957 when the us said we have a national security crisis, we must educate as many of our citizens as we can to be able to effectively wage the cold war, but brown was not going to get implemented, so even in the face of a national secured a crisis, even in the face when we say this is what our nation needs, white rage says i don't think so. why would this nation design a war on drugs that incarcerates those who sell and do drugs the least, why? y, particularly with the tribes and successes of the civil rights movement, the civil rights act of 1964 in the voting rights act of 1965, why would we incarcerate? why would we overwhelm state budget? why would we destabilize fa

so my trifecta was red, black and brown. i mean, red, black and white. and all of them kind of confirmed what the other was saying. you would have thought that, you know, coach anderson, did he -- was he home? was he listening in last night? or was coach bell listening in last night? my father was saying the same thing they were saying, and they were saying the same thing my father was saying. but they talked about principles and hard work and sacrifice and commitment. and, you know, coach anderson and coach bell, i mean, when your high school basketball and football coach tell you something, i mean, they're the high priest. [laughter] so if they say it, it's the gospel. >> host: yeah. >> guest: so truth, i think we've gotten away from truth. we lean more to our biases, our opinions. you know, you can go because of social media, you can go for months not talking to anybody that disagrees with you. i mean, i've been in quarterback meetings, the offensive coordinator and i and other quarterbacks, that offensive staff would come to blows almost on what shou

farmhouses, black schools and once thriving black churches.can now see my long silence on the subject wasn't respectful or polite as i used to pretend. instead, i was being woefully dangerously incurious about the real history of my home. it took decades before i finally woke up and began asking the right questions and is difficult and painful as it was to learn what the refugees of forsyth endured writing the book gave me an unexpected glimmer of hope that should then reconciliation might still be possible in america even in places like forsyth where prosperity rests on a foundation of arson expulsion and theft. to begin healing the ancient ones i believe white americans must finally turn and face are profound involvement in the struggle for equality and cultivated deep curiosity about what really happened in the 20th century in a seemingly innocent places where we live. james baldwin said the architects of injustice cannot also be innocent. it is the innocent that constitutes the crime. in 2016 with racial strife threatening to tear apart co

but these folks who ventured into this county encountered an environment where black mobility, black mobilization from voter registration to boycotts, to headstart preschools provoked fierce resistance from whites. up to and including violence. august 1966, just a few weeks later, local police, highway patrolman and dozens of white attacked a small group of marchers and these were marchers who were rallying support for an economic boycott of white merchants and of the real economic leverage behind us boycott was that headstart would contract for food and supplies and the workers would stop cashing their federally funded paychecks. and in the wake of this even more effective than the violence were the other strategies that whites used two and the threat, to curtail the threat they saw as the social status quo, economic status quo in the small town. from mississippi across the south but this range of options, defunding headstart, railroading a local young civil rights worker, sending him off to vietnam, terrorism, intimidation, police harassment. these tools had always been on the tabl

hen black lives matter and i want to say when black lives matter talk about black lives matter, what they mean is that black lives really do matter. long as we treat black lives dissupposable,r, we have not grown as a society. in 1999u begin the book in an episode in new york city, hat very well known, the killing. events as kindling for what is going on today. us more. a black man who stepped out on his back porch to go get something to eat after a long day a worth. this is regular. the four officers from the new upk police department pulled in front of him, guns blazing and fired 41 bullets at him. down.t 19 bullets hit. , no criminal nothing, but being a black man in new york city. at the time, have you broken policing theory governing the way the nypd worked. the ad hyper policing in black community. ight after that killing, rudy giuliani, who was mayor at the was talking to ted coppell. my way is working. had the show "crime going down," and i'm thinking, your policies are worked. on have an unarmed dead man a porch, hit 19 times with 41 bullets shot at him. your policies are wo

why had more black women showed up? this is what one local black woman said, you know how they are. they remember things, she told of a hanging bridge where two boys had been lynched in 1942 and four young adults, two men and two women rumored to be pregnant were lynched in 1918, she continued, people said they went to look at the bodies and still see those babies wiggling around in the babies after those mothers were dead. the following summer, 1966, a white college student from wisconsin stepped off the bus, was a summer volunteer and a local civil rights worker wrote into his car, drove south, turning off the highway off of a small town. and the rusty river bridge. and this is where they hang the negroes would i read about a bridge, and landmarks and racial violence in american history, and extends beyond the jim crow era. and two lynching six victims. memories and mobs diehard. and i wanted to learn more about 1942. and the effective process, what patrick described, there's a lot of amazing discoveries along the way. both of those can be a book in and of themselves. in the 60s t

there were no black people anywhere. kids tole me what they heard from their parents and grandparents. a long time ago they said, this white girl got raped and killed by a black man and her body was found in the woods just a few miles from the house where i grew up. this why it was all white and according to my classmates, it always would be. is that up to me? hey. yes, you may. the world learned that there was a place in north georgia where segregation was alive and well and white people lived like if there had been in brown versus education, no selma march, no montgomery busboy cot.boycott. it kept all country all white from 1912 to 1987. easy to forget now that the king day was actually rather controversial and a guy name chuck blackburn who had moved to the county from california and been shocked that none of his friends from north could visit him came up with a modest plan was to march 2 miles along bethelview road. the brotherhood march. the idea was to speak out against all intimidation fear that had reined. afric

among those nominated are black filmmakers, actors and films dealing with issues facing the black community. director barry jenkins' film" moonlight," actor denzel washington in "fences," and the historical film "loving" about an interracial couple to name a few. these films are part of a lineage that's largely unknown, dating back 100 years ago, to the beginning of american cinema. special correspondent karla murthy reports on the effort to bring that history to light. >> reporter: in the early part of 20th century, with racial segregation still in place in much of the u.s., black filmmakers made movies for black audiences, outside the white hollywood mainstream. they produced around 500 so- called "race films," but most are lost to history. to preserve america's first" independent" cinema, this year, the company kino lorber released a five disc collection combining 20 hours of these films called the pioneers of african-american cinema. the collection of 16 feature films and shorts-- mainly from the 1920s and 30s-- includes comedies, dramas, and documentaries. they not only starred black a

black americans are proud of him.popular president and a very effective president. i think what i like about barack obama is the fact that he had the courage to go for it. other black americans have run for president, but they didn't have it together in realistic terms. but obama knew what he had to do to get elected and did it. i know that president obama has broken down barriers because so many black people did not think that he could achieve what he achieved. so many white people thought that he would be a complete failure as the commander in chief and the chief executive of the united states and he's done an admirable job and no one can deny that. >> kareem particularly admires barack obama for his efforts to shake up u.s. health care. >> what i hope people appreciate what barack obama tried to do. of course he wasn't able to do it because of the resistance that he received from the republican establishment, they decided that they with respeere to let him do anything and it was very difficult for him to get his ag
