lived on the south side of chicago, a lot of people know the south and west side of chicago is usually the height of the crime in the city. when you move to downtown chicagoved to downtown chicago when i was 24 years old, it was such a big deal, like you made it. now throughout the entire city of chicago the violence is completely and totally out of control to the point that folks can't really move because there is no employment. now you have a mayor who is not really listening to the residents of chicago because she is more concerned about fighting trump than she is about the fighting violence and putting people in jail. so there has to be change. there has to be change. we do have opportunity to do something really big here in this environment. if the mayors will listen. charles: well, you know, to your point, the photo that grabbed my attention earlier in the week, all the bridges drawn, so no one can get to downtown. >> i lived in that area. charles: that was scary. that was the ultimate sign of surrender right there. >> yeah. charles: when do people vote them out? we'll see. we're out of time. always great catching up to you, even if it is as somethi

chicago, you got an m.a. and a ph.d. at the university of chicago -- >> guest: yes, library school. c-span: what was your dissertation about? >> guest: it was about serving young people in museums. i was working at the museum of science and industry in chicago, and i was working to open the first public service library and a science museum in the country. and that was really interesting because most museum/libraries aren't open to the public. they're for the curators and the educator es. and -- educators. and here you're going to open up a library. it wasn't a lending library, but you're going to let these visitors come in and what are you going to do. that got me really interested in not only at a special library, but also museums. and so i took some courses and things and really started visiting museums. basically, what i was saying at that time in the '80s is that libraries, public if libraries in particular, needed to use some of the methods that museums used to engage young people. the boston children's museum, all of these museums. and now you can go into public libraries all over the country and see play areas and see not just books, but things as well. c-span: all right. a baltimore resident said to me this day, when i said i was co

chicago, my own neighborhood where i live downtown chicago, it's become a target and i've just got to tell you what i just heard about seattle is delusional, if you think that's going to change what's happening here, because we are looking at lawlessness and that lawlessness is rooted in so many different factors. it starts with hundreds of years of racial discrimination in this country which has to be recognized if we are going to move forward. it has to be a reasonable conversation about the fact we can't fix what happened in the past but we can work on it moving forward. you know, i have been saying for probably five years now since ferguson, missouri, that we [ inaudible ] with criminals while at the same time answering police. law enforcement has to look at a number of factors, not just what the police do. if the police are to be the forward point of the spear in the war on crime, there's different things that are causing this. i was happy to see mayor lightfoot say that's enough, this is criminal activity and it's got to stop. i think this is an opportunity for her to hopefully turn the tide that's been going on for a long time. i ran for political office here, i'm certainly not a politician, but at the end of the day, what i said was first thing we have to do is make people feel safe in this city. that's going to stop people from leaving the city which is going to stop eroding our tax base which is going to bring business, tourism and everything else. this is very clearly not working, what we are doing. we got to stop doing it. neil: but they're not. as you know, chief, you have the seattle police chief announcing she's quitting because of the defunding efforts going on. i'm sure chicagos frustrated. we already know what's happening in new york, where a record number of officers who want to retire right now are crowding the books. it's not a good time to be a cop. >> no, it's a very difficult time. you know, these things come in waves. i'm fortunate enough to be at the world trade center and the support we got after 9/11 in new york city was overwhelming, across the country, across the world. this is going to pass eventually. but nobody is coming up with solutions. we are identifying criminal activity as demonstrations, we are calling rioters protesters. we've got to draw the line somewhere. it should start now. i'm absolutely, the overwhelming optimist and my expectation is we can turn this around certainly here in chicago. i know what we can do in new york because i was there for 25 years. i'm really sad to hear what's happening in seattle. i'm sorry that the policing in this country is so under attack right now but it started after ferguson, missouri after the stat

chicago for instance chicago public schools has over 60 percent of its young people living below the poverty line these are students who qualify for free or reduced lunch these are students who had to have a meal since of them after you know covert hit and they were no longer in the classroom because there was no food in their homes so when we talk about this we also also have to take into consideration what's happening in the united states because our child poverty rate isn't getting any smaller despite a lot of the argument we've heard from president trump prior to 1000 about how great our economy is and to be honest a lot of the a lot of information that america and american media happens to project towards other nations that our country is so rich that our country is doing so well and if you come from minority background you live in an underprivileged community you're an immigrant you know that that story is not the story that you your family or those neighborhood actually live at all and even those coming from rural communities i mean those major food doesn't sell their you know it's you know so. i'm actually going to help i mean it is a $1000000.00 seems like a low number to me it doesn't i think it's extraordinarily low i'm also interested in why the cities got chosen that didn't and what that what their framework was but i do think we have to start somewhere because from what i've been researching what unicef is trying to do is to help to bolster state and local governments to actually not only pay attention to these issues but to also recognize that what poverty actually means for young people it's not just about families not being able to pay their bills though that's extremely important what it also means is that students young people they lack the social skills they end up not being able to be a part of certain groups in many cases they're disadvantaged at levels in their education they don't have the early childhood education experiences that other students do they lose out when it comes to health outcomes a lot of them will have shorter lifespans than people who didn't grow up in poverty and that creates that kind of cyclical nature of what poverty constantly creating more poverty because of as you laid out if you're if you're facing that just trying to get out of being a child you know just trying to go from childhood to adult you're never going to do that it just creates a never ending cycle but then spreads like a disease like tragically like a disease because we don't have the infrastructure we don't have the money going into those poor communities and investment real investment going into those areas to build wealth and you're right because it is something that you hit on earlier it's not just urban areas and people think about your detroit your chicago's this and things like that it's also happening in a lot of rule country areas around the country so you have the black gap the white gap and we're talking about rule areas you also have it with latinos the immigrant community i grew up in poverty had a very high aces it's the score it's the adverse childhood experience of schools do it across the country and they basically mark your child. to make sure you know they are on the right track based on the types of environments they grew up in and if you are a student who is low income and your student a single parent household someone who has an incarcerated parent things like that your scores tend to grow go up because they predict whether or not you're going to potentially have a harder time. as you reach adulthood i. definitely got to get on that because the last thing i want to see right now is a tori amos video with the kid you know making me say. in the. pope at 19 is changing business as we know it with over 30000000 americans unemp

chicago in the 1890's and moves up through the political system d becomes a chicago city 1900's n in the mid and his career has peaks and valleys. part of the he's republican political machine in chicago. as an alderman. a ward alderman. in 1928 when the sitting ngressman from chicago, very powerful republican named martin maddon on the appropriations committee passes away mid congress in the fall elections depriest runs for the seat and wins. in 1929 he comes to the house of representatives. sarah: one of my favorite things about his career is this little tiny button we have in the collection is from his career. it's really small and says depriest for congress with a picture of him. one of the things i love most about it is they're very rare and probably weren't that many of them around initially and very few survived. i think i've seen maybe one other or two others in existence. if you think of this tiny little button worn on someone's pel looking like any other button, this actually represents a revolution, the attempt to elect a african-american to congress for the first time in decades. an inch of a quarter diameter of metal would have been a real statement on the part of hoever

chicago. i was born and raised in chicago. my dad is from the southside of chicago, my mom is from chicago. if you put the question to the children they will tell you freedom and i will tell you i am an economic refugee from chicago. we moved to national with have a balanced budget, running a surplus and there's no state income tax. they have great schools, low property taxes, very low regulation. we are back to being a fiscal guy and having a a responsible government is important to me. i was paying higher and higher property taxes and income taxes and things like this in chicago, and i and i was getting less and less enjoyment out of my city because the pilots was getting to where had to tell the babysitter don't take the kids to the beach for the park or the zoo. and i thought this is kind of like when i was a kid and of watch a cartoon of two characters stranded on a deserted island and it would be starving. one look at the other end of the one side and looked like a pork chop. i think all the politicians in annoy look like and 18. the answer to all the families wasn't to change what was

different kind i guess you could say getting back to coronavirus, montrose beach in chicago on saturday, the mayor of chicagoppears to have shut down the park where this happened. we can probably put up the picture when we can. a big gathering that was found. what do you think when you see pictures like this? >> what i think of is first and foremost people need to recognize this covid-19 pandemic is still going on, it is not gone anywhere, and people need to take it very seriously. the governor has made it very clear that we would always follow the data and the science here in illinois, that's what we have done. we were able to get our positivity rate down to sort of a steady 2.7%, but that has increased by more than a percentage point over the last few weeks and certainly over this last week as we have seen a spike in cases. we are going to continue to follow the data, but as our governor has indicated in the event that we do find that the numbers have gotten to a place where it's dangerous for people to continue engaging in the activity that we have now have at phase four, then we will have to put those re

chicago, and this is the end result. i'll get out of the way, this is the entrance to the apple store in downtown chicago, overlooking the chicago river and cleanup is certainly under way. at one point looters basically shattering this thick glass, making their way inside the store, then stealing some of the goods inside. i just watched thlked that icon magnificent mile, home to retail stores and restaurants and these scenes are repeating themselves every other storefront. as we take the pictures we are left with the key question what could have caused this, what triggered this? at this point authorities cannot say for sure, but we also have to look back at the recent wave of civil unrest that we saw not just here in chicago but american cities across the country in response to a series of police shootings. we do know that there was a police-involved shooting here over the weekend, that left one individual injured. police do expect to tell us a little bit more about what took place during the early morning hours here, in a couple of hours so we could potentially learn more about what could be behind this, but in the meantime for

chicago in terms of reparations, in terms of previous crimes that were done at the hands of chicago police officers. this is what they are saying, but we have heard from the mayor that is encouraging the cook county state attorney's office to charge the people that have looted and destroyed the businesses for the second time around. we have to make sure that is known, but this is not the first time that this has happened in the city of chicago at the end of may, we had severe looting throughout the city, not just downtown, also widespread in the city of chicago, many of those people were released withoutti being charged, so this time around, believing that many of those people did not learn a lesson and came back again for a second time last night. widespread destruction throughout the city and again, over 100 people arrested in all of this chaos in terms of the chicago police department, roughly 13 officers have been injured and even more people arrested with all of this said and done. live from the city of chicago for you to my tia ewing, fox 32r news. d i'll send it back to you. >> sean: stay safe out there, thank you. we will have more in a moment. first running a swift reaction for our top story, fox news contributor dan bongino, fox news s correspondent at lar, geraldo rivera. let's go to what the attorney general called it this weekend, urban guerrilla warfare drivenen by the lust for power d these riots are organize

chicago them in the 1890s and he moves up through the political system. he becomes a chicago city councilman in the mid 19 teens. and his career has some peaks and valleys. by the 1920s, he is part of the republican political machine in chicago. i'm as an alderman. in 1928, when the sitting congressman from chicago, a very powerful republican who is on the appropriations committee, passes away mid congress in the fall elections, the priest runs for the seat and he wins, so 1929 he comes to the house of representatives. >> one of my favorite things about depries career. is this little tiny button. it is really small. it says depries for congress. one of the things i love most about it is that they are very rare. there probably weren't that many of them around initially. very few survive. i think i've only seen one other two other in existence. if you think about this, this tiny little button worn on somebody's lapel, looking for all the world like any other button, this actually represents a revolution. the attempt to elect a african american to congress in decades. the presence of this little inch and a quarter diameter piece of metal, that would have been a real statement on the part of whomever was wearing it. i love that

issues of violence in this city of chicago. >> some people in chicago say a police shooting in your neighborhood is what sparked the looting we saw in downtown chicagosomething that was probably going to happen with or without a shooting. what did you mean? >> absolutely. absolutely. you know, you have black lives matter, and let me say this. i understand the message, black lives matter, but the movement is so different than what we want in our community, and they are calling for things to be done that most of the people in our community, especially the leaders in our community, we don't want to happen. we do not believe that looting is the solution. we do not believe that looting is reparations. we do not believe that looting is the way to solve the problem. and so those are things they are promoting and those are things that people that they are listening to, especially the millennials, some of the younger people. so black lives matter has a lot to say about the movement and about the -- what's going on in our community, but i say that we cannot tolerate that. we cannot allow that because that is not the chicago way and it's definitely not the ame

chicago law enforcement is dealing with a staggering amount of violence. >> so far this year in july of 2020, we have more murders in the city of chicago than in all of 2014. it's staggering. >> reporter: over the last 28 days, murders in chicagop 152%. and shootings are up 62% in chicago compared to last year. the gun violence here, cruel. through july 26th, 212 of these shooting victims have been kids. 36 kids have lost their lives due to violence. they've made several arrests so far, but each day, the stakes seem to be getting higher. >> there's never going to be a mission accomplished as long as there are people who are being killed in the streets of chicago. >> reporter: the number was 36. now it's 37. so you have jenari ricks that was killed. that was the 9-year-old across the street. the reason i keep talking about his case, it's because you think about such a young man who had his life cut short for no reason. and right now police are still searching for his killer. there were cameras in the area. a lot of the family members are hoping police will be able to pull that evidence to find the shooter. but you have many stories like that across the city. more shootings on another hot weekend. people are bracing themselves f

chicago. let's go chicago where the white house that's threatened to veto a proposed house bill that would provide $25 billion to the u.s. postal service. >> it would block changes to the service. critics say could endanger the move to election. here's pamela brown. >> reporter: today house is bringing members back amid criticism that democrats weren't doing a lot surrounding this postal controversy. one thing democrats will be voting on is this bill that would restrict any axes that could hamper election mail. there's been a lot of criticism that action that post master general put in place was slowing down mail. earlier this week the post master general put a halt to that and said he would wait until after the election. but democrats want it in writing. they are looking for $25 billion in funding for the postal service. all of this comes as louis dejoy was the for the first time before senators. during that hearing he distanced himself from president trump. he said he's a big believer in mail in ballots. he said every american should be able to do so. the postal service can handle the demand. he

chicago white sox. >> chicago was a very good team, and he helped them win a world series in the 1917 season. >> they may have been good, but they were not happy. >> charles comiskey, who was the owner of the white sox at the time, was known as being extremely frugal. >> in 1919, the sox again capture the american league pennant and are favored to beat the cincinnati reds in the world series. but many players feel comiskey is cheating them of their bonuses. the friction creates an opportunity for a new york gangster named arnold rothstein, who runs a sports-betting racket. >> arnold rothstein got to some of the players of the chicagoox and gave them a little bit of money under the table to supposedly throw the series. >> when the sox lose the series 5 games to 3, rothstein makes a bundle. the "black sox" scandal erupts. a grand jury indicts shoeless joe and seven other players for conspiracy. >> several of those teammates confessed that they were part of fixing the series and implicated joe jackson. >> testimony of pitcher edward cicotte is said to have been most incriminating evidence. >> prompted by comiskey's lawyer, jackson admits taking $5,000 from teammate lefty williams, but he denies throwing the series. outside the courtroom, a young sox fan supposedly confronts his hero. "say it ain't so, joe!" he says. but was it so? why would a player like shoeless joe throw a game, a world series game? >> well, the reality is that you and i will never know, with 100% certainty, the truth. joe jackson was virtually illiterate, so when he was confessing, did he comprehend what he was doing? >> based on the stats, it did
