brown's statement after the release of the video.o. sterling brown, only 22 years old, one thing he realizes is cicely because he is an athlete, people will notice what happened to him. this is something that happens the black community every day, every week and he is saying it should not happen just because of an athlete that we notice but since i do have this platform, let's talk about eric garner and stephane clark a and look one mcdonald. this is in such stark contrast to the football league. his team the milwaukee bucks issued their own statement, which i thought was remarkable. i've never seen a major process towards team say something like this. they said "the abuse and intimidation that sterling experienced at the hands of milwaukee police was shameful and inexcusable." they go on to excoriate the milwaukee police and speak about racism in their community. i've never seen a team do that before from the top level. it only sticks to the gap between how the nba has managed this growing black lives matter movement and the way it in

in most cases, writers at least follow brown's suggestion with minimal changes. still, brown is often frustrated with state officials let him to pursue a project focused entirely on african-americans under federal writers project auspices. brown and his colleagues collected materials between 1937 and 1940, for an ambitious broad study entitled the portrait of a knee grow as an american. which included sketches, studies, folklore studies and materials on slavery. research conducted largely by african-american writers with a guidebook also contribute to important study of black culture. former illinois writers and the use of their findings in the work of black folk traditions called a secrecy. one wrote on the new york federal register project used his guidebook research in his influential book, new world coming. the need for auxiliary projects raises the question of whether the federal writers project could create an integrated program that could thoroughly incorporate african-americans and meet the expectation of african-american intellectuals. although brown ini

he's willie brown one of the great politicians ever in this country democrat of california he served as speaker of the california state assembly and was the forty first mayor of san francisco and he joins me from that beautiful city right. you said it's time for democrats to stop bashing donald trump why he seems so bashful well that and it's almost natural that's what you want to do but you could become awfully lazy and ultimately not victorious if you stay only what the bastion i think you have to call him out when it's appropriate to so do i think you have to nail him and that gives you lots of he gives you lots of opportunities but i think you have to address the needs of the american people whom hillary clinton did not address when she sought the presidency if we're going to win this time around congressman al green a democrat of texas recently told c.-span there's a good likelihood that articles of impeachment will be brought against president trump if democrats win the house is that wrong just do that to say that no not at all but you've got to be very careful to make sure you

i studied sheriff brown like a prized fighter.s raised by a uaw factory worker who happened to be a republican and grew up very blue-collar. so sheriff brown has really gained a strong hold and had been able to create himself as this character who can somehow relate to the middle class. and i have news for the republicans. a multimillion-dollar candidate representing himself under the trump agenda whether we like senator brown or not, it's not going to work to get him out of office. liz: melissa atkinson, great to see you. good luck. appreciate it. >> always good to see you. god bless you. liz: same here. next, former details on former wall street trump anti-trumper democrat hero eric schneider man. a bombshell report. resigns after he has been accused of being a serial abuser of women. punching, slapping, spitting and choking women. two of them needed medical help. that's according to the allegation. one of them racially attacked as well and now the word coming in that schneiderman's accusers were not good for the democrat party.
