breaking state law and tradition in the face of george wallace. and so what did dr. king do? he marched halfway. he marched across the pettus bridge and then said, we will go back to the church again. it was the famous turn around march. and on. and judge johnson examined him from the bench about it later. but preserved the fact that judge johnson's order when it came out, ordered protection and for the for the next march and and lyndon johnson called up george wallace. are you going to do it or not? or wallace said, no. so the federal government said, we have to it. and all of this was lined up. this is all about lining up cooperation and consent, all for the federal government to do things that it had never done before. so i agree with you wholeheartedly. you know, just as dr. king's fundamental outlook on the world is grounded in self-governing public trust, grounded in constitutional faith, to move us toward a nonviolent politics are in place of the politics you have today in russia. and most of the countries in the world. just as it was that fundamental, it was also abou

the registration was blocked by the organized hate of george wallace.dent kennedy spoke to the nation warning about a moral crisis of you treat facing the nation. he announced a landmark civil rights bill. late that night, edgar evers -- medgar evers was assassinated. there was a call issued to action for attorneys around the country to fight these injustices. more than 200 of you from different races from all across america came to the white house to strategize in this very room. on that day in june of 1960 three, they established the lawyers many for civil rights under the law. its mission was to mobilize the nation's lawyers as agents of change in the civil rights movement. that is what you are and that is what has happened. it evolved from volunteers representing individual cases to taking high-impact litigation. voting rights, employment, education, and so much more. today you understand civil-rights is not a finished fight. you are leading the fight like you did for the past 60 years. you have been critical partners to this administration. helping

and it was not going into the book thinking that it would necessarily much but it's funny, and george wallacen one of the top eggs, said wallace, that one point he said to pick up moderate vice president kevin on his nominee, because look, we already have all of the nuts in the country have the kkk in the citizens council we have the john birchers and this will be great because of moderate one-sided strength of moderates on the other side, and so even he was kind of lumping them with us. [inaudible].te >> will first, he try to figure moderate he said no and so they picked curtis lemay. and so, there was a lot of for the last thing that i will say about this ifsa that society at times, the police their own rights and for example, there's a letter from a member clearly r anti-semitic on this ranch about, the jewish conspiracy an the root of evil was the jewish and the headquarters, and is a skype anti-semitic or white, somebody else rights these while minute drop him and they had a file heris anti-semitism right d so there were some efforts arguably of the true energy from the date and at first

sway over the emotions of many americans, whether it was huey long in the 1930s in louisiana, george wallace in the 1960s, early 1970s from various parts of the united states, or joseph mccarthy, perhaps the most famous of the three in the 1950s. we are not immune to the subjectiveness of demagogues who appeal to certain emotions, certain prejudices in our society. this is not new. it is not a surprise that millions of americans have an emotional attachment to donald trump who's made them feel they share victimization over him. what is clear is our institutions of justice are moving forward. donald trump may argue that this is political, but if you read this indictment and read the documents in the indictment, you will see that they would have gone forward -- the grand jurys would have gone forward with these indictments regardless of the fact donald trump tried again for the white house. you know, donald trump is the one who made this political by running for office again. i'm not saying he didn't have a right to. of course he had a right to run for office again. these indictments would hav

but he's -- he's saying basically, i want to be like george wallace, southern governors and others whoate. it was the playbook of the southern strategy, richard nixon used it, ronald reagan, bush, trump to a greater degree. whenever this kind of hate and divisive words are the standard, the bible says the power of life and death is in the tongue. so you get the words and then you get the deeds. think about it, the shooter first went to a historically black college university that represents the very thing desantis and others have been saying we have to resist, that is dangerous to us. then he went to a store that targets black communities. we have to look at this and understand that the same thing in the sense was happening in '63. the march on washington was book ended by violence against children in birmingham and killing of children after the march on washington. the sheriff, though, joy, i want to say this, is right to say he hated black people. this man was not an anomaly, not crazy. he was lucid, and that's why yesterday talking with bishop frank reed and others, clergy are plann

he represents the spirit of bull connor and george wallace and we saw what happened to them. the same will be set of cameron sexton and donald trump and ron desantis. those who have been trying to maintain the white power structure, this plantation politics. that is why we're seeing such oppression. this expectation of people is dying and this degeneration is rising up was the today is my birthday. i'm turning 28. i'm so hopeful as to what the station will be. i'm hopeful for what america will be. i say that on this show that democracy now! this democracy forward. we will do whatever we can to make sure that democracy sustains this nation, multiracial democracy based on human rights and dignity. amy: state representative justin jones, repeat your age on your birthday today. >> i turn 28 today. amy: happy, happy birthday. i wanted to end by asking you if this state session was called by the republican governor bill lee who lost dear friends and the covenant school massacre -- this was a conservative christian school -- if you feel that lines are breaking down? you've had peopl

courage of -- who shot down under 11th, right, when we think about that moment and we think about george wallace under 11th standing in front of the university of alabama and declaring his commitment, what we think about the violence that framed the proceeding of the march? when we think about the violence that answered the march? the bombing of september 15th, 1963 that killed four little girls? but also the two boys who were killed? johnny robinson virgil where? johnny robinson was actually shot in the back by police officers. virgil weir was shot on his bicycle by his friend by to quote unquote eagle scouts. the violence of the moment. and if we tell ourselves a better story, a thicker story about how we've never really come to terms with it, then we can understand more fully what we just experienced today. it stings to me. that's a long winded way of pulling the point, but i hope you get it. >> absolutely get it. and you brought a very important point up about the apparatus of hate. and as i mentioned, and as you just said, this falls on the same day as the 16th anniversary of the march on w

when we think about that moment and we think about george wallace on june 11th, standing in front of the university of alabama, declaring his commitment to segregation, when we think about the violence that framed, the violence that preceded the march, and we think about the violence that answered the march, the bombings in 1963 that killed four little girls, but also the two boys that were killed, johnny robinson and -- john robinson was actually shot in the back by police officers. he was shot as he was on a bicycle by two eagle scouts. the violence of the moment. and if we tell ourselves a better story, a -- story, about how we've never really come to terms with it, maybe we can understand more fully what we just experienced today. felt a long winded way of putting the point, but i hope you get. it >> i absolutely got it, and you brought up a very important point about the apparatus of hate. as i mentioned and as you just said, this falls on the same day as the 16th anniversary of the march on washington. reflect on this tragic >> happening on a day that was meant to celebrate civ

george wallace, one of his top aides, said wallace at one point he was he said, you know, you could pick a moderate vice president, right. not as your nominee, because, look, we already have we have the nuts in the country. we have the kkk okay, we have the citizens council and we got the john birchers. this will be great. you pick a moderate, you'll work one side of the street, the moderate or the other side, and and so, you know, even like a wallace aide was kind of lumping them. so it's a little bit curtis lemay. well well, first. well, after he tried to pick a moderate and then the birchers said, no. oh, yeah. so then he picked curtis lemay. so there was a lot of and the last thing i'll say about this is that the person said he did at times try to police their own ranks. and it's really interesting for example. there's a letter from a member clearly anti-semitic. i mean, he's going on this rant about the jewish conspiracy and the root of evil is -- and then a birchers in headquarters is right to each other handwritten. is this guy anti-semitic or what and someone else writes, he's a

it was as george wallace was integrating or was standing the schoolhouse door to prevent the integration of the university of alabama, which was a sequence that led to a speech that president kennedy gave a nationally televised speech. but i came across this in a in a biography of kathleen's father and said on june 10th, the day before, a pair black students were scheduled to illustrate the university of alabama, kennedy had permitted a documentary film crew to record his family breakfast at hickory hill and followed him to work. cameras showed him cheerfully toweling heads and telling his children to finish their milk. do you remember that? yes. just on this, i james meredith said about your father, he was one of the bravest people in history. so i. i just want you to know that because we're so lucky that we have robert, head of aei, and that we really are and that his put her on this meeting today. and i want to thank. i think that's very important. and it's important remember our history and it's it's i've i've got a famous father, you know, and and you've got a wonderful father whose

king used and i have a dream speech, remember, january of 1963, when george wallace was inaugurated.raw a line in the dust. and i tossed the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, of course, federal government intrusion on the states. i tossed the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny. and then he says, segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever. and king is responding to that moment, remember, it's the birmingham movement. that frames this moment. and what is the response to the march in 1963. september 15th, the 60th anniversary of the 16th street bombing. the november jfk is dead. then we have to place this in context if we're to understand the journey to now. >> yeah. one or 2%. so glad your history performance. good heavens. on to you, another professor, keneshia, there is the new cdc report, it shows one in five women feels mistreated during maternity care. 40% of black and multiracial women are reporting discrimination. this is in addition to the stats that show black women in their babies or almost three times more likely to die during pregnancy or childbirth. the

able to use the resentments of the disenfranchised, from huey long from your homestate through george wallaceote against that in the future? >> we've had waves of this in american history. i think one of trump's heros is andrew jackson who was the first great populist to play on resentments. resentments about the bank of america -- i mean america's national bank, those types of things. yes, it's been on the left and the right. there was a progressive populism and then there was sort of an every man is a king populism that you referred to with huey long in louisiana. what is the best alternative to that is politicians that can create a narrative and say i get it. i hear you. that don't look down. that are not looking down on people, but say i get the narrative here. here's the path of the future. here's the way that everybody is going to be included in a more prosperous america. i don't think republicans have done a counter-narrative to trump very well. i think the democrats have to some extent but it's a muddy message on the democratic side. >>> under georgia law, the identities of the 23 gra

george never sold me out. nobody can say that about richard. you never sold out. and that's why i'm here now. so we had henry. wallace was destroyed.mcgovern was destroyed by both parties. remember, it was? a there was a fusion of the democratic party elite in the republican party elite that that coalesced to destroy mcgovern. and then the those senators i mean, i'm very good friends. ralph nader, i was nader's speechwriter and ralph a point where he realized there because he worked with that ralph worked with that liberal wing of the democratic when it existed. i mean, 24 pieces of legislation the, mining safety act. oh, that was all written by ralph and then pushed through. but he watched this largely done. tony coelho and clinton took corporate money and did corporate bidding. i mean, clinton did it as much destruction as ronald reagan, maybe more nafta, fcc, glass-steagall and everything else. so destroying 70% of the original recipients on welfare were children and and and ralph's argued, you know, if we can pull five, ten, 15 million people away, that's the only mechanism we have left to put pressure on the democrats. but of

george russell for £100 million. nice work if you can get it. talking of new jobs, number 10 has appointed grant shapps as the new defence secretary after ben wallace's in 12 months. to remind you, back in september 2022, he was removed as transport secretary. but next month back appoint home secretary. but just for six days and in the same month he became the new business secretary. then fast forward ish to february 2023, made energy security secretary and then today. yes he's the new defence secretary. very well, the former head of the british army, lord dannatt. asserting that mr shapps knows very little about defence. however he has already reaffirmed the mod support for ukraine in their fight against putins barbaric invasion. well, emily. emily thornberry rather, labour's attorney general , the labour's attorney general, the shadow attorney general, spoke to journalists earlier to give us her reaction . us her reaction. >> i think that it doesn't matter how often they reshuffle the jobs or rishi sunak finds another mate to help and to give another mate to help and to give a new job to. the fact is they are just reshuffling the deck chairs. the s
