but there's something, the suburbs outside, several suburbs, particularly the northern part of chicago called color county, and they're because of what was happening around the confirmation of clarence thomas, and the outcry from the sexism or accusations of sexism that were going on, many women voters in the color county ran, not because she ran on issues around, the need for gender equality, but she also had the base and a record on the southside of chicago. she's also from the southside of chicago, around issues, and maybe she didn't talk about it as much but, you know, never ran away from issues when it came to racial inequality. so that was pretty much a record. but she built on the coalition that harold washington built on. and so you could see the progression, right. and i hope we get to in a moment, talk about how barack obama sort of build on that tradition and went far beyond what mayor washington, as well as carol moseley braun did in getting white votes. >> let's go there now. so, tell us can put this in context, barack obama, was there during much of this time. you mention
