gandhi himself was influenced, believe it or not, by islam. he cited the prophet muhammad as a role model, he cited his attempts to build an ideal society as a role model, cited the martyrdom of hussein. and it's interesting, i found an iraqi parliament of government citing gandhi citing hussein. i don't know how they came to know about this, but remarkable story. from the 1930s and '40s, we come to the 1990s and much more recent examples. does anyone know who -- well, does anyone know about him at all? be the balkans, he was in albania, built a remarkable movement that lasted for almost a decade of parallel society of civil disobedience, mass civil disobedience, mass boycott of serb institutions. let me explain. kosovo, t so -- it's so complicated. kosovo wanted to be at least autonomous, if not independent. mill so slip, who many of you may know, cracked down very heavily. in response, the albanians built this remarkable parallel society of schools, colleges, hospitals. i mean, and very pluralistic. named, for example, one of the main instit

trying to get over twenty million unemployed americans back to work unreasonable and many years ago gandhi had a message for his army of peaceful protestors in dealey take i'll explain how it is words are more relevant than ever today's occupy wall street protests. republican house majority leader eric cantor stuck to the shoe of the president obama's americans jobs act yesterday saying there's no chance that the house of representatives will even bring the bill to the floor for consideration let alone hassett as a majority of americans want so at the fact that numerous economists and so that the american jobs act will create millions of new american jobs eric cantor called the legislation unreasonable and so the house republicans instead will chop the president's proposal as in the past just. the cuts to federal programs the support for middle income people or cut taxes on rich people and nothing else in response president obama said this. american people don't have the luxury of laden thirteen months while the folks who live and work to make some are living paycheck to paycheck some folk

sour and it's a poison how what is being done you know assuming that you share that promise with gandhi what is being done by the groups in zuccotti park to prevent the crazies among them to prevent or or not crazies just people who think that they righteously have a. reason to respond to violence with violence. well they've had nonviolence trainings i mean part of what made such a graph such an effective tool and part of what made snick and the s.e.a.l. see such effective organizations in the civil rights movement is that they took time to very diligently ensure that anything that could interrupt the group's message was provided against right if the sit ins woolworth counters had turned violent it would that would have been the headline right and then the civil rights message and the equality message would have been completely lost now today we had a really interesting illustration of this because mayor bloomberg was on the radio this morning and he said that sure protesters have a right to protest but we also have a right to make sure that people can walk down the street unmolested wh

back in the early days of mahatma gandhi's protests protest is not anywhere near a strong enough word but you know his taking on the machine of the british government. he he made it very clear to the people who were with him that even when they were being whipped from horseback even when they were being beaten and those things happened as you well know that if if they respond if they lifted a hand in response he said one i'm paraphrasing here but basically he said one one violent response to their violence one small but violent response their violence is the equivalent of a drop of arsenic in a glass of water it turns a sour and it's a poison how what is being done you know assuming that you share that promise with gandhi what is being done by the groups in zuccotti park to prove it's. crazy. these among them to prevent or not crazies just people who think that they righteously have a. reason to respond to violence with violence. well they've had nonviolence trainings i mean part of what made such a such an effective tool and part of what made snick and the s.d.l.c. such effective org

you know, gandhi said it and i will paraphrase it, first they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win. and we are moving forward in that process. >> there is no way to vote against the interest of goldman sachs, and so when you shut at safety valve off, you crte movements that seek to tear down a monolithic and tone-deaf and callous power structure and that is what happened. >> paul volcker, chris hedges and amy goodman when we contue. >> funding for charlie rose was provided by the following. captioning sponsored by rose communications from our studios in new york city, this is charlie rose. >> rose: volcker is here chairman of the federal reserve from 1979 to987, he remained influential in the range of economic issues, in 2009 president obama apinted him chairman of the economic recovery board, gulation bill is called the vehicler rule, wall street banks lobbied heavily against it. there is growing speculation the final product will include provisions to substantially dilute its intent. >> emerged with public comment, i am pleased to have paul volcker ba

king had learned from perrault and gandhi.reau this creates ambivalence on the part of white americans. it gave local government the opportunity to skew the news and crushed coverage their way. does this not sound familiar? the lifters such as dr. king must have felt the weight of a million in justices but hewn like this strong -- storm like this, he was able to carry the weight. for every lifter there are hundreds of leaners but on this day standing in front of the statue of american hero,icon, and legend, we are reminded that we must all be lifter's now. we cannot wait for others to carry our message is and lift our share of the load. although dr. king's legacy can never be summed up in a few minutes, let me leave you with this -- there is heavy lifting to be done again and in the spirit of dr. king's lasting legacy, we need to start now. thank you very much.

indira gandhi, was in the a post-gender when bolivia elected its first working class president, where the post-class? i mean, it is a reflection of the dichotomy. the movement -- you cannot deny the accomplishments of the movement. the human rights movement, which we need to begin talking about more, and malcolm x began to increasingly before he was assassinated, but the thing is, these smokescreens get thrown at us, and we fall over and over again. happen with clarence thomas in a certain way, right, you know? in a more evil way, many of us have gotten comfortable because rock is in the white house, but he cannot be most effective unless we are on his ass, right? we voted, so i will go home now, and see you in four years. the republicans, the tea party, all these folks, they are on his ass, so if you believe that all that there is power in that position, and there are folks that make convincing arguments about a black face on white supremacy, so there is complications, but can progress be made? can progress be made with that position? absolutely. but while we honor and acknowledge th

you know, gandhi said it and i will paraphrase it, first they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win. and we are ming rward in that process. >> rose: and what do you expect of president obama? >> what do i expect? how do i respond to this? for me, looking at this as a journalist, i am much more interested in movements, and how movements respond. i don't think anof this is about one person. you know, i think the world heaved a sh of relief when he was elected, so many years people felt they were hiing their head against a brick wall and would the door be old or slammed shut, but that kicking open is the responsibility of movemes, not one person, you know, if you are sitting in the oval office an those who are used to having the ear of the most powerful person on earth are whispering in his ear if he can't point ou the oice window of the oval office and say, if i do that, they will storm the bastille, if there is no one out there he is in big trouble and sometimes he may not want anyone out there but it sure looks like the crowds are gathering. her informed

understand it but you know it's faced with a similar circumstance as the past for example let's say gandhi in india you know classically taking the poverty stricken indians who had no money but he figured out that if you could sort of boycott and do is to keep your plate you could take down an empire and mar luther king similarly if you're going off the bosses you change the dynamic of the political and economic and what's going on in that region so that boycotters have no money then the house but the psychopaths that run the show have no morals and i would also posit that they border on suicide banking where they are willing to kill themselves with their practices they can't even rely on them being rational in any sense of the word so what can the occupy movement do taking. advantage of the economies of their size of their movement something along that boycott path that's going to push back in some meaningful way if you have any thoughts on this john i don't think we know that yet i mean one of the things that the occupy movement is being wise in doing is not suddenly grabbing on to some

keep anyone away or no first they ignore you then they laugh at you then they fight you then you win gandhi. you think the poll will be open until tomorrow. coming up four hundred americans own more wealth than one hundred fifty million other americans combined so how did we get to this point it's one that. drives the world the fear mongering used by politicians who makes decisions to prove it through if you've made who can you trust no one who is you know you with the global machinery see where we had a state controlled capitalism is called sessions when nobody dares to ask we do our tea question more. you know there used to be a time in america when as the country got wealthier everyone got wealthy by world war two as president roosevelt franklin roosevelt's new deal was taken ill and a third of the workforce was unionized and we protected our domestic manufacturing industries and corporate monopolies were illegal everyone got wealthier in america and then something happened but wasn't reagan. and as this chart shows since nineteen eighty as the nation got wealthier only the top one perce

discussing this story he went on and compared obama or said that playing golf with obama would be like gandhi playing golf with hitler then e.s.p.n. kicked him off and now he's really angry and so he's released a new song getting back at fox and now who can i say wrong getting back and fox and and yes ma'am. but. you know. don't tread on me i just love got to be in every country song it's my favorite you know ok so change is also a very popular part of the discussion you know on one hand there are a lot of people who go out there and say a lot of crazy stuff all the time and hank williams thing was by far not the worst of it but i wouldn't really say that fox news twisted his words i mean they just played exactly what he said on camera yeah i mean i asked him what he thinks about president obama and he brought up the entire banner obama golfing incident entirely brought up there weren't you know there were two missing at all and he was clearly in repentant he apologized but this song is not a man sorry. i'm a little bothered by all of this because in the beginning i said you know it what he s

you're on the right side of history and cause and they're on the wrong side you're on the side that gandhi was on the side that martin luther king was on the side that will eventually write tomorrow's history books this isn't the first time there's been conflict in the streets of america it happened in the one nine hundred sixty s. too i was there i was beaten by cops i was gassed out on the streets with thousands of other kids we knew something was wrong with this country and that something needed to change and we fought the suits and we ended the vietnam war and we brought about the at least the beginning of civil rights and women's rights and in the one nine hundred sixty s. we cut poverty in half in this country but all of them only the old forces of royalty and power and money were relentless and kept pushing forward creating think tanks and media and buying politicians left and right putting their shills on radio stations in every city in america and then creating their own cable t.v. network they even created alec the american a legislative exchange council or corporations write law

liberation in so many ways that this think different campaigns using imagery of of martin luther king and gandhi and it's really a double edged sword because of course these technologies have helped the protesters and i mean the fact that so many of us are on twitter and and and that we have this ease of communication is has helped us come together but once we're together what what is most meaningful to people is the fact that they are really connecting you hear stat words so much when you're down and occupied wall street. is is is people are people say that they finally feel connected to each other they realize that they're not isolated and they're not just communicating with their friends on facebook or on twitter they're having these face to face exchanges that they've never had before in a really liberated space so it the technology in some ways allowed us to come together but once we're together what's what's so liberating is being free of the technology which kind of brings us back to the part where it's culture conversation where we begin we have about a minute i have to wonder what do yo

describes as his supporters and those ranged from musicians and bloggers to the hads of such companies as gandhi called quiver representatives from oil and gas companies those who support change supports me this was the key message of the president and the change according to dmitry medvedev is modernisation these informal meeting with journalists and interpret nos was actually the first step up to dmitry medvedev announced at the united russia party congress that he would not be running for a second presidential term if it so either way it was deemed place and the time to cross the t.'s and dot the i's so why would a politician whose popularity ratings with the voters are still so high you have the country's top job. i don't want to underestimate my own potential which is not yours i believe in realized to the full actually i can trust rate of millions of people who do voted for the weekend hopes of change on me as well as those people who believed in the need for our country's modernization of our economies modernization and our societies modernization i feel that i'm responsible for it and i

it was like gandhi playing golf with hitler right. yeah yeah yeah and so crazy from being outside the hot sun today and that was the monday night football game we're never going to see again are you sad because my dreams is all about this is. like that's what you grow up watching football and you think of are you ready for some football i mean my detroit lions are playing this monday night and we're having a great season for like the first time in our history and we're going to you know we're not going to do that you know i mean i you know yes. i mean pregnancy when the lions don't do good it has nothing to do with that because even if you're not played maybe the fact that he's not playing but actually that's the point you know no i actually i think with this is really sad i don't agree with what he said but i think this is a continuation of something we talk about a lot in the show where people say something that other people don't agree with and then they have consequences in the professional i think e.s.p.n. has every right to fire

week three zero is because gandhi said her speak nor you then they laugh at you and it's like you they will. and i was raised against the machine guitarist tom morello taking questions from a lot of different journalists including our tease lucy half an off who's been on the ground for us day and night bringing us the latest pictures and interviews from occupy wall street lucy is also a master tweeter with so many updates throughout the day about what she's seeing and hearing at occupy wall street if you want to keep an eye on it you should definitely follow her on twitter at wusa cafe. and with this group of people a loud and angry making demands i didn't take long before the comparisons began between the occupiers and the tea party and we've been comparing and contrasting for a few days now on r.t. and bill maher makes an interesting point the other night on rachel maddow show check this out the tea party movement let's remember story sort of started out as protesting some of the same things met with the bailouts of the banks they didn't like the big banks it just shows how easily th

die in the congress so that's why they've chosen to embrace the legacy of martin luther king jr of gandhi and taking their message directly to the public good feeling directly to the ninety nine percent and that's really what occupy wall street is all about but so then we have this poll that came out today right there's one poll that says that a large part of americans actually agree with them which i guess is good news for the occupiers in the same time we have another poll that says that more americans you know almost two to one would say that they blame the government more than the last three for this financial mess and so i'm just wondering what your take is on that do you think you know you say that they're really because they realize that nothing is going to be done legislatively but is anything going to be done from occupying wall street either it's not like the bankers are come out and say we're sorry. right exactly you know remains to be seen we never know who or how or will look after a revolution you know lined up. and everybody is saying right now that they are one hundred per
