but it is stokely carmichael. when we think about stokely carmichael and what he represents and why he is so important -- he is not just appear activist for radical democracy. after becoming a black power activist he is a full blown revolutionary being an anti-war activist and critic of the system. he provides a context for the black panther party. 1965-1966 it is carmichael who goes to lions, county alabama the buckle of the black belt and helping local people and others organize for democracy in this county that is 80% african-american and no black public officials. 50 years later we have similar instances now. but in 1965 trying to organize there was hugely dangerous. they organized a freedom organization whose nickname is the black panther party. and that symbol travels all the way to oakland, california when we think about the black panther party for self-defense. so when we think about stokely carmichael who is going to be named honorary prime minister he is going to provide a platform for the anti-war movem

stokely carmichael was an atheist.how did that happen or how did he become to be of that persuasion and how did that play out in the otherwise fairly christian civil rights movement? >> guest: that's a great question. i think stokely, his people were methodist and he did grow up going to church but his own personal beliefs were probably atheist agnostic. it didn't affect him in a negative way of the reason was because stokely is a very savvy rag medical organizer. he had read that bible multiple times. he could quote from the bible. when he was in church he saying church songs in hymns so he used that christian ethic that was a part of the civil rights movement for his organizing. interestingly by the time he was a black power epic if he goes to multiple churches in washington d.c. and other places as well so he has a great relationship with the black church and understands that the black church is really the root in the seabed for black political activism in united united states. both then and now i would argue. it di

. >> what's interesting about stokely carmichael is that stokely finds his vocation as an organizer. he finds his vocation as an organizer. he visits mississippi for the first time at the age of 19 in 1961, and it's going to be the first time that he's also arrested. he's arrested as a freedom rider june 8, 1961. and he's going to spend not just time in a hines county jail in jackson, mississippi, but he's going to spend over 30 days in parchman penitentiary, parch man farm, one of mississippi's -- or the state of mississippi's worst prison farm. and it's really in parchman, and people like john lewis are are there, there's so many different -- jim farmer's there, there's so many different activists who are spending time in jail. but what's interesting is that carmichael's experience in jail is going to galvanize his political activism. so rather than be discouraged by that time period in jail, he calls up his mother before he's going to new orleans and they're going to get to mississippi by way of new orleans, and tells his mother that there's going to be media and journalists who a

stood up end of white folks was save the day then you could say then at two years later stoically carmichael shouted black power and destroyed the movement of love. but this oversimplification is what i am struggling to deal with at the heart of this book is to convey what movement people thought. people did more than act but they acted for reason those students did so because they were thinking how to challenge segregation. the people in mississippi that movement was mostly led by mississippi not charlie cobb for moses or anybody who came from the outside but to hollis watkins and sam bloch who worked this city and will not take off all those names but mississippi is led the seveners lead the southern movement and they were thinking about what kind of society they wanted to live than what kinds of action they should take to get that kind of society they saw and that point is missed i even read history books sometimes about the freedom school that tells me what i thought that they try to say charlie cobb wrote the proposal but nobody asked me. so is it is an old problem. i can find it withou
