that is a whole nuther matter that actually gets us closer to where we want to be, knowing how freddy gray was handcuffed in the back of the police van, knowing how they treated him, knowing how baltimore cops have planted drugs on black people, knowing those things are one thing. another thing is to join an organization to contribute to a campaign, with your time or your money. right? one to show up to the city council meetings or school board meetings. so we need both things. they're bowling -- both valuable. i trained by organizers in the linsky tradition. i'm from chicago and grew nip back of the yard us but didn't know a lick about him. i was not one hover those kid -- i know teenagers who know more but politic at their age than i did when i was their age. was not conscious. i know them, though. so i was trained by folks in that tradition, and what they taught me was that some much of what can drive people to show up and do organizing work is angst. angst about something. something that in your gut, in your stomach, and turning that angst, the root of anger, and i'm angry about a lot

>> the freddie gray incident three years ago wasn't about -- wasn't just about police brutality.t was about decades of assumption. as mr. simon just said, unfortunately, senator cardin has been elected and 1966. it is not all senator cardin's fault. you want to u.s. senator who is going to speak up and say enough is enough. we need to do something else. i will be there on the streets of baltimore to help fix it. >> senator cardin, on too many days we are reporting on mass shootings that have occurred across the country and sadly right here in maryland. the most recent the shooting at the rite aid distribution center in hartford county. coworkerslled three and herself using a gun she purchased legally. she had previously been diagnosed with a mental illness. too often mental illness is the common denominator we see in these mass shootings. do you believe laws need to be changed to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill? if so, how do that in keeping with the second amendment? >> absolutely i think we need stronger laws and they are consistent with the second amendment. the

three years ago when the freddie gray incident happened and the riots after that, i found a voice thatas missing from the debate and unfortunately it was senator cardin. we need people to stand up and say what is right and wrong in its decades of assumption, education failing our children. when you don't have any hope for opportunity, it's no wonder why people take action on their own just to get by. i'm frustrated and upset because we have the best state in this country but all the news talks about his how many people have been murdered in baltimore city. >> mr. simon, your rebuttal? >> the role model for what should happen is probably what's happened in detroit where there's been a constructive partnership between the private sector, nonprofit and government, strong government leaders who care a lot about what's happening. my question for the people of baltimore is if we keep doing the same things and electing the same leaders in expecting different results, it's the definition of insanity and they represented him for 52 years and i think the only way that they will change things is

able to see these, to go on these tours and people take me around to see the neighborhood where freddy gray was killed versus the downtown harbor area. california, los angeles, andy detroit access to democracy and educational local levels. the disparities that exist. poverty of local levels. some of these issues really comment that i am noticing with certain themes that definitely come up. access to water. i know in michigan we have the floodwater crisis. people in flint still do not have clean water. in detroit we have water shut off for residence. that issue, for example has -- people like to exceptional eyes it at that it is tied to this area but the more we look at it, the more environmental issues are all across the country with excess -- access to something as fundamental as the water. similar themes. i love that people are experts in their localities but you do see similar trends and themes. i do think that each region, each locality, whether it is a neighborhood or as big as a city or metro detroit area, should focus on what is our us that are here year-round. what is our culture fo

races they are in some way but there was a black police chief in cleveland in baltimore where freddie gray was killed the guy who heads up that unit the police chief was black the city government was black go to philadelphia where the black man was arrested for being in starbucks in fact, talking about baltimore even in chicago so if you look at these incidents. >> i'm glad that we did touch on that but it isn't called the black and the white but it's a black and the blue it cannot be us versus them and us versus black-and-white because many of the cities have black chiefs but we need the black chiefs and executives and supervisors to level the playing field so number one the department looks like the areas that they serve and then you also bring a different perspective but in many cases it just isn't workin working. i think that is culture look at baltimore last month. with the officer who beat up the young man while on duty not only did he beat up a young man but his partner stood by while this happened and did nothing. so we still have a culture now some departments are doing a very goo

when freddie gray was killed in baltimore and taken on a rough ride and died from injuries. then rothere were protests afte his death. all the news reports erratic times of violence began war protesters threw rocks. and that was my aha moment. the actual violence of the man being police. the powerful violence was actually indiscernible as violence. because that is how power works. but when someone threw a rock in the opposite direction, that was the chaotic disruption that becomes menacing because it might interfere with the way power works. [applause] and once you start to hear the way it works -- i went back, i feel like i'm getting far off of your question but i read a story about harvey weinstein once called me horrible names and pushed me down steps and it was assault but not assault he literally put my colleague in a head lock and pushed me, called me words i will not say. [laughter] and the new york times covered it the next day.they described us, i was a 25-year-old report at the time i recall equals 27. we had been asking questions about a movie for a story were rep

black male civilians who were unarmed and killed by law enforcement, including individuals such as freddie gray, tamir rice, michael brown, and many other individuals. when we take a look at the criminal case dispositions of these 17 black male victims who were unarmed, we can see some frightening results. the chart on the left shows the cases in which an officer was not criminally charged for murder or manslaughter. we can see indicated in green that one out of these eight cases is still pending, relatively new from 2018. the rest, seven out of eight, notes criminal charges were brought against -- no criminal charges were brought against the police officers. on the right we can see cases where officers were indicted or criminally charge. in two of those cases, the officer was charged in a case still pending. five have been criminally charged and not convicted indicated in black, and three have been criminally charged leading to no conviction, as indicated in red. the cases in which an officer was not charged or not convicted far outweigh the cases in which an officer was criminally charged and

when freddie gray was killed in baltimore, he was taken and died from his injuries. there were protest after his death. all of these reports that i said at the time, it began with the protesters threw rocks. that was my off moment. wait, the actual violence of the man being killed by the police, the powerful doing violence to the less powerful, was actually indiscernible as violence. because that's how power works. but when somebody threw a rock in the opposite direction, that was the chaotic disruption that becomes because in my interview with the way power works. once you start to hear the way that works, i went back and -- getting far from your question but -- i read a story, this is not assault or sexual -- it was assault but not sexual. he literally put my colleague in a headlock and pushed me, called me, words i will say on c-span. the new york times covered it the next day. they described, i was 27 -- i was 25. the new york times the next day, described us as pushy reporters. there's another example. in response to actually being physically pushed by a powerfu

freddie were bigger even at the peak of the pls market. the rest of the market that would be represented in the gray area at the top are portfolio loans held on the books of banks, fhs, va and rural housing loans and as aaron said the va and the fha loans are a very small part of the market once you get to the cusp of the crisis. one thing to point out is that the entire analysis is about loans, acquisitions of whole loans, it is not about the purchases of security. fannie and freddie became in the 2000s very large purchasers of private label securities. this was a lot of the risks they ultimately bore. we're not covering any of that here because this is about the direct acquisitions, but it's important to keep in mind that the actual credit exposure that fannie and freddie had was significantly greater than what i'll be showing here. i know that ed in his comments this afternoon will touch on those purchases by fannie and freddie. the data are on first leaiens t purchase one to four unit homes from 1990 to 2007. we use the data as i mentioned for the gses loans and core logic data for the private label security loans. the core logic data
