from that, i worked backwards to the mid-1960s, when the black jewish alliance of the dr. kingears split up. i was raised believing that that was a horrible terrible time of discord and it was at this appointment that it dissolved and that i read the primary sources and found that jewish leadership saw it coming and understood it and appreciated it. the discounted the impact of black anti-semitism because he understood that jews were white and privilege and a joint middle-class status. just push the thesis, move back into the 1950s to see how much of what happened in the 1960s and 1970s that the jewish leadership was aware of even before. i found out 10 years before, even 50 years before, they understood fundamental differences between what it meant to be white and a jewish and what it meant to be african- american. they were predicting, not only a nice interfaith alliance, but that it would have to split up. there is no way that this alliance could survive, given the different american experiences between the groups. >> when you say they within a jewish leadership context, who

i think the larger view, at least my opinion, is that the soul of the country has room for both dr. king has also been home to the ku klux klan, and the way the soul, the way the country moves forward is can the dr. king side win just enough of the time to make us move forward. and it's always going to be a close run thing. the idea that somehow or another there's a magic bullet or that there's, you know, the kingdom of heaven is at hand if only a senator voted this way or that way just is ahistorical. one hopes for this. one hopes we'll have a margaret chase smith moment today. i feel compelled to mention a republican senator from maine, who happened to be a woman, i don't know if you can see the relevance there or not, but margaret chase smith in 1950, just a few months after joe mccarthy started his reign of terror, laid out a speech which she called the declaration of conscien conscience, the direct case against joe mccarthy. only six senators joined senator smith in denouncing mccarthy on the early side, and mccarthy dismissed them as snow white and the six dwar fs, but we got to a

dr. martin luther king jr. was unveiled today at a school in the east bay. it took 6 years, but the principles of dream for the statue finally became a reality. the inspiration for this new statue came from principal angela stephenson's desire to show her students the likeness of a man who did so much to change this nation as he fought for civil rights. >> one of the things i would like to say is that the fight is not over. there is still a lot of work to be done to ensure that we are providing equitable access to education, that everyone of all races and creeds feel accepted, that everyone of all religious beliefs feel accepted, and that they understand that america is a place of equality. >> dr. king was an american baptist minister, and also an activist who led the charge of the civil rights movement from the mid-1950s until his assassination in 1968. >>> monday is the deadline to register to vote in california for the november 6 midterm elections. the secretary of state reports more than 19 million people are now on the voting rolls. that is 75% of eligi

when kennedy was killed, when jack was killed, when bobby was killed, when dr. king was killed, there was a national silence like there was after 9/11. people pulled back. they felt the need for some kind of reverence. you can't go too far in your politics. i don't see the president pulling back. >> not at all. i think you're right. it's okay to disagree with somebody. that doesn't mean that turns into some sort of political discourse that should tear this country apart or engage somebody to go out and harm someone. our tradition has been political discourse or we debate it. we disagree with somebody. we debate it or go to the ballot box and vote them out of office or vote them into office. at the end of the day it's toning down that political rhetoric. we can disagree but that doesn't mean we dislike or want to harm one another. >> the president knows how to turn the eat. he's turned it on this so called caravan, he calls it. these migrants coming up from central america. they're not the usual person coming up from mexico out of ni economic need. what do you make of

. >> i always say that dr. king his statement was when someone was doing something wrong, the silence of good people is worse than the actions of bad people. and so if you're a leader then you have to step up. i think that's what we have do do democrats and republicans left and right. we should have the political debate. the political debate, you know, you different issues. it should be the political debate chl debate. >> i hear you. it's not about putting rocks on different parts of the scale and see what part is higher. think it all has to go. we are not going to mover past the place we are at right now. i have seen a lot of things. i spent most of my time going around the world to the situations humanity has to offer. i did not expect that and i don't think it's because of the death penalty which exists on the federal level. i am just shook. we want to see better from our leaders. i understand what you're saying as well. i appreciate you coming here to have the conversation. >> thank you. >>> all right. we'll tur

dr. king has some thoughts on this in his prophetic "beyond vietnam" speech, dismissive attitudes for vulnerable people is possible when machines and computers profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people. he called for a revolution of values to save the soul of our country. and he was assassinated one year to the day after he offered that speech. so passing these amendments is an imperative. it's not revolutionary. but it does indicate that san francisco leaders haven't lost touch with their souls. thank you. >> denise with the living wage coalition. the amendments to the ordinance are important to me because as a non-profit worker, i used to be a cal works program participant where i work providing valuable services to our community. i am a single mother of three children. and being paid just $15 an hour is not enough to survive in san francisco. i support increasing the wage rate and the living wage law to $2 above the minimum wage. and i wouldn't settle for

dr. king's house, almost killing his wife and his child.t stimulated solutions where the civil rights movement engaged in debate within itself. the d movement, there was a lotf debate as to what is the way forward? and it caused infraction and that's movement. more organizations developed. we did not demonize the political party. we didn't look for villains and victims. we came to gather on solutions. and that is what -- it was backed by a spirited debate. the debate is missing out. the issues today, the lonelines loneliness, the lack of meaning in people's lives. leading to suicide and record number. violence. isolation. and so right now, for anyone to speak up to address that problem, they are being vilified because you either have to declare yourself as being on one side of it or the other. but the answer, though, is to give the people something, their own voice. right now, people on the political left and right, extremes, they presume to speak for whites on the right and others who presume to speak for authorities on the left. i believe
