dr. marshall? >> welcome, victor, i had the pleasure of working with him at the district attorney office and i know you to be a very ethical, fair committed person, and so i think that this body will benefit from your years of service and your sense integrity and fairness for everyone and so i am excited to work with you again. >> commissioner dejesus? >> i have to say that i did attend the rules committee where commissioner chan and commissioner wang went in front of the rules committee as stated in the charter and i understand that a decision by the rules committee, the three members there including the chair voted for a commissioner chan and put her name forward to the board which is the way that the charter was set up, and the way that they have it has worked in the past. and i understand i was disturbed at what was going on at the rules committee and what i was there and i was present and a lot of the discussion was, having a particular commissioner for a particular community and that is not w

dr. marshall? >> and lastly, i just want to echo commissioner mazzucco statement and this is probably longitudinal of the job that you have done since you have come and you said that the occ was in sham bells and that is an understatement. and the controller report confirmed that and you have done a wonderful job of restoring order and complying with all of the recommendations and given what you have do, and on the budgetary constraints. and in the controller's report. and you are probably a victim of your own success. and you have been forced to, you know, do more with less. and that is probably an issue for me when i hear the board saying something like that and you know, i almost feel like they are taking advantage of you, and i guess what bothers me here is that we convinced the board in the city that the department back up the numbers and 19, and so we will restore the academy and we need do that with you based on the recommendations that the controller made and you have been operating for a l

dr. marshall and dejesus says that when we got in the commission there was a backlog that you would not believe and now that is cleared and it appears that we are waiting for the old he have cases for the decisions from the da's office and i understand that moving faster on this. >> and i am talking to my counter parts over there and trying to parcel out more work and keep it moving. >> all right, commissioner dejesus? >> and that is exactly my question, is moving the backlog like, o7 and i don't know, 7 years ago, and that is 2011. >> okay. >> 2011. okay. >> so. what is the typical amount of time? >> our average is probably by the time that they get it up to review is about 18 months. >> and i guess, is there something like especially with the older cases is there something that we can do or the department can do to help speed up the investigations. >> what they had the policy in the past had been one of the issues was that they were waiting until the criminal case was completely adjudicated and separating the focus on whether the officer had and was there any criminal activity by the officer

dr. jill marshall and angela deserves to be reappointed because of her record and strong commitment to transparenceresponderness to all people who come before the police commission. i want to acknowledge that issues like this can put the different part of the chinese and that community together there was not a division within the community and by continuing to support victor our community can be united in promoting strong women of color and victor as well. i want to say that our public defender mentioned that angela is providing a key voice for the under served and underrepresented voices on the police commission and by not reappointing her we lose the strong voice along with others. i want to say many women's groups are asking for strong representation for gender imbalances in power and i think angela understands that the power on a police commission or within the police and justice system within the city and to lose sentence of women's voices in power will be a great loss to the police commission and city as well. the asian caucus dinner they worked with the gay organizing relationship there is s

they recognized this ultimately meant war. >> this reminded me that early on, thurgood marshall had no sense of who dr. king was. who is this preacher down south? as late as the 1960s the naacp is worried about him and lax collection of money, taking money out of their coffers etcetera but the strategic difference is such that thurgood marshall is of the opinion that dr. king is a great speaker. he is a wonderful speaker. he can change hearts and do this and do that. you walk away from a king speech and are so enthused you go back to segregated neighborhoods, segregated schools, back to racial inequality on the work site and the only place you make concrete change is if you change the law in terms of congress and the courts. >> thanks. all three of your books address in addition to dr. king lesser-known figures. i wonder if you could choose a story you think people should know more about and share it with the audience. >> we talked about this. >> your time, your book. >> i will take one and leave the baltimoree n for you. what i would single out is the conservative republican congressman from west cen
