heather heyer was the one who died in that crash, when that car crashed. i spoke with her mother about the state of race relations in the country and what her message specifically is for unity. >> sometimes if someone is so adamantly opposed to what you have to say, you simply make your point by linking arms with that person of color who is with you. or it could be a visual statement, as much as a verbal statement. sometimes people aren't ready to hear what you have to say. but they can't help but see what you're doing. >> what do you want to say? >> i want to say snap out of it. white privilege is a very real thing. you know, i struggled a lot in my life. i was a single mom with two kids. my parents provided for me. i have, you know, i was not struggling as a child. my grandparents were co-miners and farmers and i live in a single wide trailer. i get that demographic and i get the mindset. but, it's not mandatory that you think a certain way just because you live a certain way. you have the ability to still think for yourself. i often say, don't drink the

one person died in charlottesville, heather heyer. never really talked about her, never discussed her. steve bannon still trying to equate antefa with the people who came in, announced the whole thing, announced over and over statements like "jews will not replace us," racist, virulently anti-semitic advice. still steve bannon, advisor to the president, probably fueled his racist remarks at the time, i believe it is racist to equate these groups. has the ear of the president. i will also make a side note which is, on the mueller investigation, donald trump -- sorry, steve bannon said at the time that there's no way donald trump didn't tell -- donald trump jr. didn't tell donald trump, his dad, about that meeting. now when he's trying to raise money from millions of people to support donald trump, he's basically saying, oh, yeah, no, donald trump never did that, or i don't know that that happened, or he denied it. we should take his statements at the time, not his statements today. >> all this week we've been having these conversations

forhe mother of heather heyer, the past year has brought her pain a purpose. what would you like her legacy to be? >> a personal call to action. that's what heather would want, is for peoe to stand up and pay attention. >> reporter: this as she picks uphere her daughter left off in crusading for social justice. >> it's truly a heart movement. it has to start from inside the heart, and that takes having difficultconversations. >> the robert e. lee statue that was thef focal point this last year, tell stay in the park in charlottesville? >> reporter: right now it'smi d in a legal tug-of-war, and it has been for the last couple of years. i part of theue is that there's a state law preventing the removal of confederate monuments. for now that statue is goi to stay right where it is in the park. >> thank you. >>> also this morning, president trump's former aide and "apprentice" star omarosa is making explosive claims in her tell-all book about her time with the president. omartia w that mr. trump used the d "n" word while aroun the set of "the apprentice," a claim

>> well, there is obviously the memory of heather heyer who stood throughout the long and tragic jim crow era stood for what we should be and not necessarily of what we are all the time. and so i think that's the most perhaps one of the most important things to take a moment and realize that someone gave her life and trying to protest against the neo-nazis and the clans man wen who gathe there a year ago. the event of august 11th and 12th will loom very large. that was the first momen moment -- maybe not the first but a significant moment where the president seemed to have a hard time figuring out whether he stood with people like heather heyer argued that we had to be apart and aside with our better angels or did he stand with david dukes and others? >> david dukes said a year ago that is why we elected donald trump was to protect statues like the robert e. lee statue and protest the way they protested. when the president of the united states advocated his moral leadership decisively and decidedly then that set a tone for t for the year and we are still living with those after shock

i think there is blame on both sides. >> heather heyer -- >> they showed up at charlottesville -- >> excuse me, you had some very bad people in that group. but you also had people that were very fine people on both sides. >> reporter: the images seem to tell a different story. randi kaye, cnn, new york. >> it was such a horrible day for our country. and so far president trump is ignoring the charlottesville anniversary, at least on twitter. he is actually tweeting criticism of some athletes who are making a quiet protest about race relations in this country. on friday mr. trump condemned a small group of u.s. football players who kneeled during the national anthem. >> the president accuse us them of showing fake outrage for something they can't define, but the athletes are explicitly calling attention to racial injustice an inequality in the united states. they say the way mr. trump is handling it is making the whole problem worse. now, from dog whis i will statements to comments that seem to give the racist groups a pass, it seems that white nationalists are now emboldened to spread

( chanting ) >> sreenivasan: the protestsci began after th announced plans to remove a statue of confederate general robert e. lee. lawsuits over the statue continue, and it remains in a downtown park. last year, president trump drew criticism for not initially condemning the white supremacists. >> i think there's blame on both sides. >> sreenivasan: this morning, the president tweeted, "i condemn all types of racism and acts of violence. peace to all americans!" the organizer of last year's rally, jason kessler, was denied a permit to protest in charlottesville this year. as a result, he will be in washington d.c. tomorrow for a ."white civil rights" ral counr-protesters are also planning rallies there. we're joined now from charlottesville , n
