it will be the jamaican musicians, the peter toshes and bob marleys -- the people -- the politicians had to be responsive to what people were saying and doing because there was a movement around these high- profile folks. they cannot just represent the movement. they have to come out of the movement. it has to be present in our communities and schools and prisons even for that to happen. otherwise, we end up with the tail wagging the dog. these boats we have artificially created to be our saviors, and we need to be our own saviors. [applause] >> how do you see -- and this is to either one of you -- do you see the new disciplinary action, the prison system at this point, and where do we go? because you are doing wonderful work in the system. where we go to make that not happen anymore? >> i also want to throw out because sister davis is here and working with restorative justice for youth, to invite her voice into that question as well. >> what we are doing in oakland is to try to break the school to prison pipeline by coming up with alternatives to incarceration. in this case, restora

because it was so obvious -- it may have been so clear back then zblsh well, bob marley said itself veryte yourself from mental slavery. when you're born, you're light in love. later on they convince you you're black, or yellow, or mexican or this. one of the quantum leaps in consciousness for me was when i saw the movie "guess who's coming to dinner," when mr. sidney poitier looked at his dad and said, dad, when you look in the mirror you look at a black man in the mirror. when i look in the mirror, i just see a man, period. now that's a quantum leap. >> that's a big difference. >> in america, especially america, america brainwashes a lot of their children into minority. just even the word alone -- it is a minority. how can you be a minority when you're a child of god? you must be out of your damn mind. >> t.j., i took some kids to see the jackie robinson play in chicago. young kids. and they had no idea about anything that jackie had done. none. so that's what you're talking about. a young generatijegeneration, w that, they don't understand any of that. they would ask me about it, what

obviously that's a bob marley song, but they were trying to give the uplifting message that everythingg to be all right, as the song goes. let's lisp. listen. >> there's nothing more beautiful, i think, than seeing people rally together and support each other and help each other. and i truly think that something positive can come out of something like this. and that's a unified community, a unified country, you know, as all of us all over the country and all over the world could give if you feel led to. i think it can be a very unifying thing. >> reporter: and by the way, if you missed the telethon last night, carol, cnn's sister network, "hln," will replay is on sunday night at 9:00 p.m. eastern because the need, as i said, continues to grow. and if you feel so moved right now, you can still go to cnn.com/robin, and we'll hook you up on how to donate right now to the red cross. and they do everything from making sure people have shelter, to making sure they have a blanket for the night. the very basics that people are now missing. >> okay. robin, thank you so much. i know it was a lon
