we understand flint to be a predominantly black city of nearly 100,000 people. story on earlier today, and there were white people featured in that piece. so you have what sounds to be a mostly economically challenged community, and some are calling this, essentially environmental discrimination, and some are going so far as to call it environmental racism. what do you call it? >> i call it a travesty of justice. we're all american citizens whether we're impoverished or a community of colors, but this government in the state of michigan with this egregious law has dismantled black cities all throughout the state of michigan to a tragic nature. there's nowhere in america that has such egregious law as this emergency management law where you have one assigned representative to come to a community and jeopardizes the health and welfare of the citizens. >> you said a lot there, you said that governor sneijder has deconstructed black minority cities, and then there was a reference to emergency merger. explain your critique of the governor. >> his -- his response to t

flint, as you know, is a prominently black city of 100,000 residents, you know the city better than i do. but both blacks and whites there are low income people, and do you accept the critique? i'm asking you to put on your columnist hat for a moment, do you accept that people of flint were basically left to deal with their problem on their own for a year? that this was discrimination based on race and economics? what's your response to that charge? >> people were certainly left alone to deal with this situation. their concerns were ignored, which is a tragedy with serious hik consequences. this sort of situation probably would not have happened in one of the rich detroit suburbs, in ann arbor, where the governor lives. so i don't think that we can talk about this situation without raising the issues of race and poverty. >> so who is calling for the governor to step down, to your knowledge? and is there any snip of a recall movement in that legislature? listening to the applause this evening, i can't imagine that there's any support there for a recall movement. >> reporter: well, he c

black people came to oakland, to many northern cities during what we generally call the second great migration during the onset of world war ii calling for jobs, making a lot of money building ships and other things. most of the blacks who settled here during the early 40s came from louisiana, oklahoma and texas because those at the nearest states where blacks cannot get jobs, brutal forms of segregation, they came and settled here mostly in the west oakland area where demand talks are located and created their own homes and small businesses and the city itself changed almost overnight from a city that was predominantly white to one with a significant black population. win the war was over and whites returned to the city, continued to be denied basic survival needs, civil rights and human needs so that you had a whole population of people to find work but there was no work for us especially once things settle down after world war ii. when you look at the entire country after world war ii the big call for blacks at that time was we want double victory, victory overseas, victory over ji

this majority black city has been in an economic tailspin for decades, ever since general motors cutduction here. 40% of flint's 100,000 residents live in poverty. in 2011, governor rick snyder turned near total control of flint over to a series of emergency managers, and they began major cost cutting, including a decision to try and save $5 million by switching flint's water supply. officials originally said they wanted to get water from lake huron, which is about 80 miles to the east, but that pipeline wasn't going to be finished for two more years, so in the interim, they decided to get their water here: from the flint river. but as soon as the river water began flowing into flint in april of 2014, red flags popped up. the water smelled bad, and it flowed in a startling array of colors. e-coli and other bacteria were discovered, followed by chemicals that can cause liver and kidney problems. in the fall of 2014, the local g.m. plant stopped using flint water because it was corroding their auto parts. >> i mean you can see the particulates in it. see it floating. see the brown stuf

was being treated like a black man, but had nothing whatsoever to do with the black man, so in 1830s and 1840s, new york city is inventing segregation. so, what was it like for this black man to walk the streets of new york and that is the sort of question i strive to get out in the book. all right, i'm actually going to read and inflict my prose upon you for a couple of paragraphs. i try to make that very same point. jeremiah hamilton's unique position in new york, present any writer with an opportunity for coming to a new understanding of the way the 19th century city work. he offers a way to reconsider subjects that are seen without too much sort as being quintessentially white. totally segregated from african-american past. this is the case with wall street, the stock exchange in the great fire, but is also true of that penny press, revolution of 1830s. far too often historian street african-americans if segregation succeeded. as if blacks lived in their own separate world physically and culturally removed from everyone else. in effect, african-americans become segregated for a second time in the telling

to say that prison has become a normal and anticipated marker for young blacks in cities today. jason: it was not for me. what concerns me is not the number of people in prisons, it is whether the incarceration rate is matching the crime rate and i think that should be the focus. new york city homicide rates have been in the multiples for 200 years, criminology wise, new york has been for most of its existence, a very violent place. even if you put aside gun crimes, americans kill each other without guns at higher rates than other industrialized nations, we do not know why that is. there is a lot we do not understand about the cause of crime, demographic, whether it can have an impact on it . but we do know, when you take an individual, put them in prison, you remove that threat from society. most crimes are committed by people who have already committed crimes. it is around 60% so i think that the reentry programs are very important. most people in prison will get out at some point. we need to talk about react when reacclimating them to society, what worries me is this attempt
