dr. martin luther king, he was dr. king's personal attorney and then lieutenant governor newsom spoke about how so many people were touched by mayor brown in terms of his getting them involved in political leadership and where many of them ended up and it was sort of a full circle for me because my father was also one of dr. king's attorneys and clarence jones remembered when my father was a young attorney and then it was willie brown who appointed me to the board of supervisors many years ago so it complete like a complete swinging of the pendulum too. and executive director moyer moyer was there as well. >> i just want to say i want to congratulate you on being the new president and willie, the vice president and i want to say thank you to my two mentors for my first year here, former president doreen and kimberlee helped me a lot when i first came here, sort of pointed me in the right direction and i appreciate that. i don't have any transfer going down to the majority, i have a lot to do right here in san francisco

dr. martin luther king , jr., speak. >> a great privilege of a young woman was going to hear dr. martin luther king speak. as this preacher challenged us to the participate in the cause of justice, not to slumber while the world changed around us. that made such an impression on me. jon: joining us now, angela mcglowan, fox news political analyst. angela, did you hear anything in this speech that sounded like a predentialal speech, or is this a former first lady and former secretary of state kind of making the round? >> it is no question in my mind hillary does not want to add president to her resume' but the bottom line is this, jon. i believe she wants to be president she is not a sure win for the democratic party. there are two things that stand in her way. benghazi, and maybe biden. inside the beltway the scuttlebutt if biden announces he is running president obama will endorse him. jon: oh, okay. and he is obviously been making some noises. that appearance on "the tonight show." >> yes. jon: that was pretty suggestive of a presidential ambition in our vice president's head. >

what else he is he's a prophet in the best of traditions and the reason i say that is because dr martin luther king jr one of my favorite prophets who was similarly killed a similarly put away when he was demonstrating for garbage collectors in in the city of memphis and what he said the pit of my says it all he said you know like a boil that can never be cured unless it is opened up and exposed to the natural medicines of air and light so to injustice and lies will never be exposed unless they are held up to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion only then can the be solved can they be addressed can they be can they be resolved and that's what we have here we have not only hero in my view in the view of my colleagues we have a prophet and let's not shy before that label not hero not not hero not traitor but patriot to the constitution and profit and the best of the biblical tradition but just funny martin luther king made a difference. do you think the likes of manning snowden really will make a difference to the future. well snowden has already made an incredible diffe

dr. king's nobel peace prize. his sons, martin luther iii and dexter king want bernice king to happened them over. on paper this is the estate versus bernice king, but it's really brothers versus sister. today bernice king made it clear she wants nothing to do with anything to do with selling these precious pieces of history. >> these are items my father would not sell. he gave away every dime of the nobel peace prize money. i believe he would feel that way if he were here today. i can't speak to what went wrong and why my brothers have voted to sell those two items. i just know that i am absolutely opposed to them. i know without a shadow of a doubt my father would be opposed. >> victor blackwell just came back from the news conference. we will get to that in a minute. we were talking about this and this was sad to see this happening. oar it's tough for people who idolize the family. it's not the first time a king family member sued another over money or holdings. she said this is different. this is about her daddy's bible as he travele

the daughter of martin luther king, and why she is dissociating herself from her >>> an ongoing dispute between dr. martin luther king's children played out again today. bernice king was at ebenezer baptist church, where her father was a minister, and she criticized her brothers for filing a lawsuit against her. and the courts want to force bernice to turn over the traveling bible and the nobel peace prize, and she says that she wants to sell them. >> with this historic plea, i believe negligent action of my brothers to usher in what is perceived to be the latest round of a family conflict, but my reality is that if i willingly sold my father's bible and nobel prize, my conscience would haunt me for the rest of my life. >> bernice king said that her father would not want those items sold, and the king children have been in and out of court for a number of years over a variety of disputes involving their father's estate. >>> 2013 was a record year for the hotel estate. it totaled over $6 billion in the year, and the city took in over $232,000 in room sales tax, and last year's presidential inaugura

dr. martin luther king is picked up in an fbi wiretap, telling the associate is going to endorse president 1968. he basically tips the election for next into john kennedy in a skin tight race. so i suspect that is also a factor in his birders. i am deeply interested in the robert kennedy murder. that definitive story has not yet been told either. yes, sir. >> could you describe to us this past november 22nd? >> surreal. first of all, much, much smaller. there was literally -- first of all, it's important to city close to the site down to the average citizen for a long period of time. they did so to control the messaging of the commemorative service. they did not want this to be about questions regarding the assassination. it is built as a celebration of john kennedy's life. indeed, people who were eyewitnesses to the actual assassination were not invited to partake paid. it is very interesting to walk through. it is important to recognize the case of the man named james k. another is coming immediately after the murder, jay edgar hoover within days issues his report, which says lee harvey

dr. martin luther king is buried baptist church is not the same neighborhood i grew up in. >> i think it takes a much bigger movement. i don't think that president obama can do it alone. coach dungy has been canceling young men coming in sports. he was here last night. i mean it really does take a huge number of people to do this because these are horrible statistics. >> is he a start point. >> is he a start point i agree because is he president. >> is he president, and he is supposedly this role model and he has to do more than speeches. he has to make a determined effort. it is about his policies. i think that what you saw in the state of the union address, what you saw in his interview with bill o'reilly, he just is a bystander to everything. he keeps talking about the economy and this, and that. he is the cause of this. this his economy. these are his policies. he needs to take ownership. >> i guess i always go back to the question what do you do? i guess to the extent i guess if you are president then your policies are such that they are not advancing unemployment in certain areas.

dr. martin luther king, junior who leads the masses of african americans from racial oppression. this notion that rosa sat and martin could do this stuff and jesse could run and barack can fly, all these things, they they simplify a much more complicated history. that history involves so many african-americans, women and men who proactively dismantled racial segregation including rosa parks. she was an activist. she did not just refuse to give up her seat by accident. there was a concerted, strategic effort to transform democratic institutions.

dr. martin luther king jr.urage fathers to stick around and remove the barriers to marriage, and talk openly about things like responsibility and faith and community. in the words of dr. king, it is not either or, it is both/and. >> it is not either/or, it is both. it was an event where the parents of trayvon martin and jordan davis were in attendance. this was not a partisan event, nonprofit groups, business leaders, and civil rights leaders. and bill o'reilly was there. the president mentioned both of us. >> if i can persuade, you know, sharpton and o'reilly to be in the same meeting -- [ laughter ] -- then it means that -- then it means that there are people of good faith who want to get some stuff done, even if we don't agree on everything. and that's our focus. >> i sat there with the parents of jordan davis and trayvon martin thinking of their pain. we sat in front of john lewis, who had been beaten to open up america. but then i thought about the pain of many parents who are the parents of children victi

dr. martin luther king talked about a promissory note. that promissory note was predicated on justice.out putting black people above white people. it was about equality. and our country is predicated on justice. clayton is right. there's still white privilege. racism is still a very real part of this country. that affects our black brothers and sisters most acutely, but it affects the white people in my generation as well. i think, you know, the first action we need to take together, hand in hand, is to repeal these laws that essentially codify racial demarcation in this country. that privilege some people over others. because i think we can all be equally skeptical of the fact that these are two cases in which self-identifying white men kill self-identifying black boys. it is a problem. >> you know, collin, a lot of people get upset when you say white privilege. say, what are you talking about? there is no such thing as white privilege. >> i think if they want to deny there's no such thing as white privilege, they need to look at the history of the united states of america. that's pat
