i hadn't seen my mother since i was seven i hadn't seen my mother since i was seve n years i hadn't seenout i even had a little brother who i had never met. that day was so surreal. almost like a met. that day was so surreal. almost likea dream. now that i'm older, ifeel now that i'm older, i feel ready to explore the cultural background of trokosi. it is practised in parts of ghana, togo and benin, by various ethnic groups, one of which is a ewe. iam ethnic groups, one of which is a ewe. i am driving into ghana's volta region and —— a large area of leaks and rivers where trokosi is most prevalent. right now we are following richard who i met the first day of the journey. after our chat in the taxi, richard invited us into his community to speak with a group of ewe elders. to mark our arrival, they were saying prayers and boring libation to their gods. —— pouring. they believe if you offend the gods are they can bring misfortune. i would like to know if there has ever been human sacrifice. he is talking about trokosi, where you are banished from the community to pay for the crimes of you

i felt my life was in a mess. i felt sorry for myself and what i yearned for that evening was for my mother to show a little bit of sympathy for the predicament i was in. but all i received was condemnation and a type of cease and desist message. this was the beginning of a life pretending to be something i really wasn't. i had always dated throughout high school. i continued to date in college. it was part of fitting in that became a part of my life. when i was 23, i was teaching high school and in odessa which is out in west haven and one day i simply said to myself luanne, you are not going to ever fall in love with a man. quit waiting for that to happen. but you do need to get married. so just find a nice fellow, marry him and get it over with. it wasn't long after i made that decision to marry without love that a friend arranged a blind date for me. he was a nice fellow, a schoolteacher with aspirations to be a school administrator.and this appealed to me because my dad was a school administrator. his dad was

i was fortunate when i left vietnam. i went to europe for 4 1/2 years. i was at nato. then i came to for the leavenworth. and resigned my commission to stay on the faculty at the command staff college and spent four years on the faculty there. thoroughly enjoyed it. glad to be here with you tonight. with that, i'll turn it over to my friend. >> crosby, kerry, all the staff of the library, this has been an incredible series. thank you for enlightening the whole kansas city area on all these variable topics on vietnam and thank you for allowing me to participate in this tonight. i'm rich kiper. i graduated from west point in 1967. and served 26 years active duty. was commissioned infantry. after commissioning, i went to complete the army ranger course, airborne course. the military special qualifications course. went to germany. at the age of 23, as a 1st lieutenant, i was commanding an airborne infantry company. which happened to be during the time the russians invaded czechoslovakia. we had a little excitement. i left there. went to vietnam. where i commanded an infantr

that was it. i didn't know in six months he was convicted of raping a woman in carson city and would be incarcerated for the crime. they did not process the dna for 20 years despite knowing that the timeframe would expire in 2004. in 1993 my case was closed and my rape kit unprocessed. i went on with my life but the effects were tremendous. i don't remember a year of my life since the rape. i have strucked with ptsd. when i walk into a building or elevator his face flashes before me. in november of 2016. this is why i'm reading this story. in november 2016 i received a call from sfpd that would begin a whole new traumatic experience and violation. i was you wili was called by sey bear. she left a message with my husband who later she said she thought may have been the perpetrator because there was another dna hit in another story. i asked her why she thought i would be in a relationship with the rapeth when she said it was a stranger rape? she said we lost your rape file she said she had a list of r

there was a time i think when we. felt it was time to draw. each one of us had drawing blocks and i remember that. and my sister and i were just not interested but my brother just picked. me. something you know he was not like war he didn't do well in school you know who would. say i don't need to study i. don't need to. tell him. he was very lucky when he went. there was. rather than fine. because. you know. i think you might not make money the intention was always you know after the foundation cause to go into fine arts because that's what i wanted to be you know. but then again you know there's voices from my sister and my mother saying you know you're going to you know it's really becoming. their job or what do you think design and. i went into design. school i went into the commission. i was working as a street. as a designer. and i was working on a lot of big up lines you know like singapore airlines so what the response we shouldn't go for. every week i'll make maybe two or three trips to singapore to get briefed. but i didn't like the n

i was senior director of equipment. i had a great thing. credit marine corps with that can do attitude. it was great. always kept in touch with my marine corps buddies and attended reunion. sometimes i organize them. >> was something you got from their marine corps service that you consider valuable? >> you get knocked down six times get up seven. just never give up. speak the truth and people will respect you for that. >> how important was it involving yourself with the veteran community following your service? >> it's very important to me. i volunteered at v.a. now. i have since i retired. i don't want these young veterans to suffer what i suffered. just kind of indifference. i want them to know that we appreciate what they are doing. maybe i didn't like the tactics in iraq. maybe i didn't like the tactics in afghanistan. fast not their fault. here it is again we wasting all this blood and treasure. to what end. we have to support these guys. i worked with veterans from national military medical center and take them out on hikes hunts, fis

and i think it was. of course it is a difficult climate to be controversial in this country because. you know that i feel that the controversies attacks are really generated for political reasons. that's a political project in terms of wanting the country to remain. and the middle east in particular in the muslims in particular to be a certain kind. really a certain kind of muslim you know conservative tradition no. i think with all fundamentalists and conservatives is a is about control conformity power and the having the sole power and authority to decide this is how you should think this is how you should act this is you should change. i first came to london in mind made forcefully. when you live in the militia you don't go to secret. the office to get my or you see the books magazine. what are you looking for i see a piece of art. from where i don't look or feel you know it's more a bar to the piece makes your hearts skips a bit they're not so orthodox they're i'm interested to know if i look at it an

i was glad to say that. and then but as i heard -- when i got home later and there was audio of it, which i hadn't really realized. and brian -- >> oh, there's always audio. >> there's audio of this thing. >> everything is recorded. >> yeah. and then the washington post said shouting erupts and it said i was in tears. this was ridiculous. i heard the audio. i was shouting. i was shouting. everything i wanted -- everything i imagined i would say, everything i thought i could never say, like all of it just came flying out of my mouth. and i was -- my voice was shaking. i was crying. i was a mess. it was like i was super ungracious and i cried. and i was like i don't care. i just don't care. and that night i thought i don't care. and the next morning i woke up and i thought i still don't care. . [ applause ] >> it was -- i felt -- i'm not full of it when i say you should cry. i cried in a really public way with a really difficult subject. and the next week i had a meeting with the lawyer in town who was like, oh

i was self medicating you know i was trying to trying to get away from the emotional distress what i put it down is something that changes your state so whether i win it i lose it game whatever there is something in me mine because it's all very personal mine was based around. a fear and a lack of self-worth so when whenever i felt frightened or whenever i felt invalidated or that i wasn't worth anything there were discussed in feelings about your mic and i wanted to get away from it and what i found was it was drinking. and . when i drunk i don't want to stop you know it wasn't that it took my cares away it was that i gave zero k. about it took over you know it went from just saturday to sunday sunday monday tuesday. and it got to a point in two thousand and three where. i went into rehab and it was only because i was a keeper of the time and in holloway fantastic man really really really good man and it was going to set me. and then i went out to come in and train with the kids keep me off the books because our stinking abuse tom strain of the case but i didn't come in just went

to i was a student protester. so go figure. something is odd. >> host: i don't know if you saw recently that reed college in portland, oregon, i dropping a lot of their year-long humanities classics course because it's too focused on white men. >> guest: yes, i know. it's awful. , los angeles not far from where we're sitting right now, you no longer have to read shakespeare or milton to get a degree in english. >> host: why is that a bad thing. >> guest: because there is such a thing as good and bad work. i hate to say it. the politically correct people don't agree but i would say that william shakespeare is probably the most talent human being whoer lived. i'm a writer and a little prejudiced and if you study literature and leave not read shakespeare, nor a nincompoop. it's like studying religion and not reading the bible. it's about that extreme. and i don't know. i mean, because he was a white man so what? i don't care. i think it's very interesting to read eugene -- written by a black russian. so i don't care whether they're

>> yes, i was. i was about to fail out of the place. i graduated with honors from vanderbilt university and i was going to flunk out a four months at ocs and i do not know how to cry. men don't. i just went down to the shore and there was a lot of wind and the waves were coming in splashing on the shore and i opened my mouth and yelled. and somehow i got rid of whatever and i knew it was going to be all right. it would be all right. >> you pass the test. >> united. yes. thank god. >> [inaudible] said weakness is not weakness but power under control. >> power under control. >> i thought of that when i was reading this chapter when you had to fire someone for the very first time. >> yes. yes. >> i remember having to fire someone the first time it was harder on them that it was me. they said get it over with i want to get out of here and i was blubbering -- tell that story of firing the guy for the first time. >> that was the toughest decision of my life. i knew that it would be a complete split of the family and of the company. >> that was

my was did i miss you say it was my best day. because i remember something maybe after two days or one day my memory given back to my sibling and then there was that she was too sure as to not feeling well with that baby as well and so. then. i remember she wanted to throw the baby and then i had to then move to so she threw how about take the time i kept running with that baby. yeah and then i think it was the next day but we slept in some. reason to live in the following day yeah wake up check the. to say i was. i remember i was his favorite chain. there used to be like we used to comin to fit in say the two men that i know also remember on dead due in may when i lost my sister that i remember what happened to us when showing something like that and then. the airplanes came and if you had gone to the bathroom i just saw him running with this towel that's all it was a lesson to me so you take that. to me he was a good father because he didn't do anything bad to me so personally i would not go again his team because he has never d

i was writing the next book. and not being the best lawyer i could be and understanding that. >> host: jennifer is in richmond, david baldacci's hometown. >> caller: i was actually calling, i love the amos decker series, loved how you brought melvyn mars back into the fix. i was shocked, i didn't think you would carry on the character but i was calling, what advice do you have about a 13-year-old who wants to be a lawyer but also a writer? >> guest: i was listening to the same situation. reading a lot is great, playing with words is great, that is what lawyers and writers do. i just say join a book club and you will find a lot of people with similar interests, there are a lot of organizations around, legal organizations, law firms, to encourage people to go into law, some summer camp deal with that as well. the true discipline shares a lot of commonality so she goes and does this she might find people there have the same dreams. i would say open up a blank page journal and start writing stuff down, doesn't have to

was guarded and it was when i realized that something was off that i felt extra bad but i think what it became torture was about four months and when i had one of the symptoms which the doctors cry because hypersomnia our our all i wanted to do was sleep but i definitely i was acting like a different person and i it wasn't getting through the day that was difficult was getting through moments in the day and i think that was when it became what you called tortures because every minute was. it was difficult to get through but i want to touch on real quick three things that the doctor said that were really important one is that the difference between the baby blues and postpartum depression i think a lot of people a lot of moms told me oh yeah you know it's normal or i felt sad too and i think they were referring to the baby blues. which wasn't what i had and so i was kind of in this gray area where i wasn't sure whether it was normal or not and of course because i was embarrassed to talk about it. i wasn't really able to articulate what i was feeling and a lot of people were telling me

i. did was japanese i might have given yeah but what was. i to judge what i did was. i. going. to mug situated on colombia's southern border is a real test about a trade for the peace treaty. most of the countries cocaine hails from here. from a tub of smugglers have no difficulty shipping deliveries of the drug to neighboring ecuador or even further afield. us. to mark was in the region of to moscow is plagued with various problems with all of twenty two thousand hectares of land are used for coca cultivation is a harbor is used as a drug trafficking route to mexico and central america when i was the author it is a week and there's a substantial informal economy as a result of drug trafficking has taken over the region in a way not. just you know as we found in the barra trees and trafficking routes are all in the same small area. when the state was unable to take control of the region off to the funk left the state failed either because of corruption oil inadequate planning and so criminal anarchy has prevailed. and that's obviously been done in the region surrounding to mosc

i know it you thinking. that was my way to show that this guy may have changed but is still human being and he can still feel and be vulnerable. i don't necessarily plotted all out. i'm so immersed in it, it just feels right when i'm writing it. in college spontaneous but it just came to the surface and i used it when i was supposed to. so for me i knew i wanted more emotion out of him and his relationship was a critical way to do it. >> host: one relationship is -- who starts out annoying him as a journalist. how does she evolve? >> guest: it's like watson and sherlock holmes. she keeps him somewhat normal and kick some of the but when he goes too far. she is a steady influence but it's frustrating. she's good at her job and wants to be better. she understands his issues and it's important when you have a dual that they have to be complementary. together there better than they would be if they were separate. i don't think a mistake or could be decker without her. >> host: they work for the fbi and the fbi has been i

i was aware of none." you seen press reports about various meetings such as with ambassador kislyak?" "if i could scratch my last statement, yes i did read about that after the fact." "were you aware of those at the time they occurred? "i knew something, i believe there was a meeting there. i wasn't part of the meeting, but yeah, i believe i was aware that it occurred." i didn't know about it. i knew about it after the fact. i knew about it when it happened. man, trump nailed it when he named this one. he looks like someone who can't keep his stories straight. let's also call him donald. and then -- [ cheers and applause ] then there's the fact that the official story from the trump camp has always been that trump himself was unaware of the meeting with the russians. but then last week trump's lawyer, rudy giuliani, seemed to admit that he might have been aware at the time and just forgot about it. giuliani said he would be surprised if the president knew at the time of the controversial june 2016 trump tow

i thought it was, but it's not. e, i started by going to this "business" in brooklyn called stein meats. wow. a legendary meat house in new york, they would supply people like peter lugers and wolfgang's -- some of the best steakhouses in america. walk me through the process of how it works. howard: this is the receiving area. we get all out fresh meat through here. owners alan buxbaum and howard mora had taken over "a. stein" from their fathers who founded the company. and their hamburger, the brooklyn burger, was the staple at new york's three biggest sporting venues. good burger. it's the best. it was a $50 million business, but something didn't smell right. so the money that the customers owe us -- those are the receivables. correct. how much is our total receivables right now? couple hundred thousand? almost $4 million on the street. are you kidding me? so, based on that information, the offer i made was to put $1 million in and own 50% of the business. and the way i arrived at the $1 million offer was the recei

i went into rehab and it was only because i was a q.p.r. the time and in holloway fantastic really really really good man and it was going to suck me. and then i went out to come. in a train with the kids keep me off the bus because our stinking abuse some strain of the kids but i didn't come in just one hour in the last obviously because i've been invalidated and i was scared and then i called in the next day when i was what chain. result come in and i thought what am i do it so i rang ali and i said look. i've got a problem and i don't know what to do about it and it was such a magnanimous man because he said i don't know what to do but i'll find someone who does so i went into a clinic but won't go to understand his i went in for alcohol rehab and i came out for two years which is wonderful you know it totally changed my relationship with alcohol but it didn't die even knows. exactly you know what i didn't know much they didn't realise a time was the drinking was a symptom of my problem you know and we didn't get to that so once i was sob

i was on facebook. t hadn't quite made it to facebook that i called my daughter and asked to find #metoo on twitter because i don't see it. so it was set up i could watch the hashed out. i sat up all night obsessively. don't tell nobody else, obsessively watching this hashtag. and i was calling friends and consulting people. what am i going to do? who's going to believe this for deferral black woman is the one who started this thing 12 years ago. who is going to believe that? and then the really interesting thing happened. somebody tweeted #metoo with the link. i clicked the link ended up enough to this woman's story, her full story of what happened and it was god wrenching. you know, i'm a christian woman in the bapti church we say we can't convict did. i was convict did in that moment. i read myself, i spent this ente day trying to figure out how to save my work in my work was happening right in front of me all day. i remember sitting up in my bed and saying exactly that to myself. you know how you get

it was drinking. and when i drank and then wanted to stop you know it wasn't that it took my cares away it was that i gave zero about it took over you know it went from two saturday to sunday sunday monday tuesday. and it got to a point in two thousand and three where. i went into rehab and it was only because i was a keeper of the time and in holloway fantastic really really really good man and it was going to set me. and then i went out to come in and train with the kids keep me off the books because i was thinking abuse stream of the kids but i didn't come in . i just went out in the last obviously because i've been invalidated and i was scared and then i called in the next day when i was what chain keep ya's result come in and i thought what am i doing so i rang dolly and i said look. i've got a problem and i don't know what to do about it and they were such a magnanimous man because he said i don't know what to do but i'll find someone who does so i went into a clinic but what we got to understand is i went

most times, i was counted out. i was counted out even for our was considered in. kick in.elman lessons keep yourd to myself head down, do the work must day on the plan. sometimes, i would even swallow my commentary. that was hard. but i have never held myself back. fly,no matter how high we we still hit the glass dome constructed by our biased culture. sadly, i am still just one of a handful of black female executives in corporate america and it is now 2018. we see each other. we embrace and sometimes we run and hug each other, but we are black women, still in a white, male world. the women of generation p have always had to show exceptional performance well in during sub optimal circumstances. we broke into the top ranks while enduring the indignities of being ourselves. when you are a black woman, you get mistaken a lot. you get mistaken as someone who could actually not have that top job. sometimes you are is taken for kitchen help. sometime people assume you are in the wrong place. all i can think, in the back of my head, is no, you are in the wrong place. the

and i was like, "no, they were asleep." lling a ball around." cut two, take a second different ghost tour, 'cause this is all i do. [ laughter ] and this guy's -- >> jimmy: second different ghost tour? >> yeah, a different -- a a walking ghost tour this time. and we're on -- down the street from where we're staying and he's like, "well in this house, traditionally there was a a young -- you know, a child named anna who was known to roll the ball around and sometimes people would see a a ball roll down the stairs." and i was like, "do ghosts ever travel from house to house?" [ laughter ] yes! >> jimmy: "because that just happened to me!" oh, my god. >> again, happened before. >> jimmy: see, this is bizarre, man. oh, my gosh. >> this is how i relax. >> jimmy: well see, no because -- something spooky about it, i believe in that stuff, man. last time you were here, you left a letter for your future self -- >> oh, yeah. >> jimmy: 'cause you were here just 29 days ago. >> 29 days ago i was here. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: we're bookin

i was a sophomore in college that year. moment when i decided i would leave this country after i graduated. i did. i came to the united states in the summer of 1991. brian: when you went to school, you are in beijing? yunte: yes. brian: were you there in tenements where -- tiananmen square? yunte: the protests went all the way to joan -- june. during those two months most students would go every day. we were on strike and there were no classes. we were very engaged in the demands on the government. government started the martial law in beijing. things were getting pretty tense. 4, i days before june got a telegram from my family. ill,said mother is gravely return immediately. when i saw that i thought -- mother is fine, i will pack up right away. i will jump on the train. at the time, there was no speed rail in china. today, if you go there, everything is so convenient. i wasn't impressed. at that time, it took me three days and nights. --ad to ride the train force 427 hours. i took a boat at a bus -- 27d to ride the train f

so i was really struggling. one of the things i struggled with was, how am i going to contain my work? how am i not going to get lost in the spiral moment -- viral moment? an interesting thing happened to it i did not tweet at the time. i'm 44. [laughter] a: you all know what i mean. i was on facebook. it hadn't quite made it to facebook. so i called my daughter and i asked her to find #metoo on twitter because i didn't see it here it. so when it was set up, i could what the hashtag. so i sat up all night obsessively watching this hashtag. i was calling friends and consulting people and saying what am i going to do? that thisg to believe 44 euros woman started this thing? in an interesting thing happened. somebody tweeted #metoo with a link. i clicked the link and when i clicked the link it opened up to this woman's story. her full story of what happened to her. it was wrenching. i'm a christian woman. in a baptist church, we say we get convicted. i was convict did in that moment. i read that story and i thought

>> i think it was -- oh, man. >> you know, like you start to name stuff and it turns into like "hit your mark," "follow your fuse," know what i mean? so, can you just call it "barry" and we can make posters and get this ball rolling? >> jimmy: naming your character barry, thinking about it, no one i know has named their child barry in a really long time. >> yes, it's not a name -- even the doctors, if you said put barry, they'll be you want to take a minute? [ laughter ] no, we like barry. >> jimmy: you have a very strong supporting cast on the show, including henry winkler. >> yeah, the best. >> jimmy: for me, henry winkler, he was on my lunch box going to school every day. you're younger than i am so you probably didn't have that. >> way, way younger. [ laughter ] no, i remember him on television. >> jimmy: no, i'm sure you remember him. but it was reruns. >> yeah, way younger. >> jimmy: henry's a very, very nice guy. >> yes. >> jimmy: and almost too nice. >> yes. >> jimmy: and he seems to love being on the show

i wouldn't be as happen like i would feel like same day why was i put in this progression position that was like regular, normal. >> open this trip i potentially discovered most about myself was my roots tide to african or africa. >> some of us don't want to talk about that. >> we talk about the seniors activities involved some this is complex story that africans are telling to get sympathy not true that was real it happened it happened. >> but how are we able to get us to easily it was because there was - in africa that we call the domestic living the only time was exist and existers see what happens here and see how we have perhaps a river that our for bears was built in before they walked from here to the castle. >> i remember there were no shoes at that time, they came here barefooted all them was on barefoot and being out of respect you have the experience of having to walk bare footdz. >> we're first hit with the last bath. >> come with me, please. >> going to the center for the last bath and knowing what those people went through they're walking hundreds of miles across african c

i was like thank you. lm, but i think she would have liked the film as it was accurate portrayal of what life was like. host: i will ask my producer to put that one picture of the men with a checkered shirt back on the screen. guest: that was my grandfather who passed away before i was boring. anyone who reads my book will see on the copyright page, copyright whatever the year by the name of my grandfather. my other grandfather, he was six for-eric rudolph valentino looking guy that died before i was born as well. no one in richmond could pronounce any of his names, so they just called him mike. host: what generation was he in the us? guest: he was the immigrant that came across from italy the turn-of-the-century through ellis island. for a lot of italians new york was to fall so they got on the train and got off at the first stop in the south and that was richmond, virginia. so there is a huge italian community in richmond, virginia, because of that. host: we will take more calls and then learn about how "

a physician and i was making diagnoses. but there were no prescriptions for actually what was going on in keeping my patients from being successful. and so, i saw the flipside of the same problem, but still hopeless. that is what really prompted me to try to take a step up from the frontline to think about how we should be doing work differently on the systems level to make sure these great public systems that serve our underserved children are actually doing their job. [applause] >> well, yes. so part of your experience was to keep learning. you just have to learn a man that has been such an important driver for you. part of our topic today is about the importance of that sensibility for kids. like what it means to become a lifelong learner. tell us a little bit about what skills are what you think is most important for kids today as they are looking forward. >> so, this is not going to sound humble and i also think it is true of all of you in this room. i was a really good student. were you pretty good students? but what t

it was religious at the time. i thought that it was more a message just to give the background of how serious man's first departure from his home planet was for humankind, and frank's friends and frank's choice was particularly appropriate for that. >> it was -- from my standpoint is was perfectly appropriate for that reason. >> very appropriate but a scriptwriter could not have done a better job preparing for this flight, the sequence of events that occurred with all the troubles and the turmoil that the country was having at the time to end up with a flying to the moon that everybody favored, that was positive, and that we could read something that was relating to creation of what we were now looking at and to come back on just about the end of the year. thought -- >> frank equipped later that one of the biggest accomplishments of apollo 8 was getting anders to great catholic to read from the king james version of the bible. >> that's right. i brought him along. >> chris kraft told me that transearth injection, re

david: you were the babysitter for your three -- ginni: i was. i was. een to pta meetings, you know, bugle lessons. all sorts of things. david: did you get paid anything for the babysitting? ginni: no, no, i did not get paid. i probably should go sum that up. david: you had a scholarship to go to northwestern? ginni: i did. i did. actually, i'm proud of my brothers and sisters all. we always said -- my mom never complained. she never said much, but we all watched by what she did. and they sometimes say i am the underachiever. my brothers and sisters have been incredibly successful, and that really is that work ethic my mom instilled in us. and so, that to me is -- so when i went to northwestern that -- and i did have a scholarship, because we all looked for ways to do that and put ourselves through school. david: now your mother is still alive. does she call you and tell you how great you're doing, or does she say your other siblings are doing just as well? [laughter] ginni: actually, she calls and talks about all things normal mothers talk about, right?

i was looking through the website. ss, but does it deserve a stamp? would flan even make the list of top 30 desserts in the world? how does flan have a stamp and pizza doesn't have a stamp? [ cheers and applause ] guillermo, did you -- are you a fan of flan? >> guillermo: no, i don't like it, i like ice cream. >> jimmy: isn't flan really creme brulee without the good part on the top? all right. the post office, they're trying to find new ways to make money. they're not doing well. so not only are they selling scratch and sniff stamps, starting next month, they're teaming up with a popular restaurant chain to try to make a full meal out of mail. >> dig into kfc's most finger-licking meal deal yet. introducing our new partnership with the u.s. postal service, crispy envelopes. made from premium 24-pound white pulp paper you've never been more excited to open the mail. >> i got an electricity bill! >> i think mine has a credit card in it! >> don't forget the rain-soaked amazon packet bucket smothered in our signature gravy

>> i was part of a big coalition. my role was getting on the phone with legislatures and convincing them that what they are, the scare tactics of groups in their district were not true. so i worked the phones for quite a long time last summer to help get these two bills passed. i planned to work the phones for quite a long time this summer because we've got some great reform proposals that are up in front of the state legislature. a number of them are having to do with police accountability, as a matter of fact. one of them that i am working really hard to support his by assemblywoman, dr weber, that will limit the instances where it is lawful for a police officer to use lethal force. she drafted this in the wake of a tragedy. and other by senator bradford that deals with data. it has been so hard -- what is happening here is happening in the state level. it has been so hard to get police departments to agree to collect data, just information. there are actually two bills that will hopefully make it easier for us to ca

>> i did. it was the craziest, now when i reflect back on it, i'm, like, what was i thinking?me out here to new york. it was the winter, i was super depressed, i didn't know what i was going to do with my life. and she was the one that kind of put together that really what i loved about dance was storytelling. and, so, she was like, "you should try the movies." like, we knew nothing. she's, like, "i hear they make them in hollywood." ( laughter ) she's like, "you don't want to be 80 and on your death bed and always think about, you know, i should have given that thing a shot." and so she bought me-- because i had no money-- she bought me a one-way ticket. and the travel agent sent us the ticket and it said, los angeles, and she was, like, "ah, ( bleep )!" ( laughter ) she's like, "i told them hollywood! ( laughter ) and i was, like, "mom, fix this!" we knew nothing! i tell that to my kids today and it's, like, are you crazy? >> stephen: well, now you are a movie star. it worked out, it worked out. many fans, of which i am one. for people who don't know, you grew up in south af

during that time, i was young. i was wild. i was angry. sn't something i didn't expect. so, you know, at that time, and point, i wanted the death penalty, to be honest with you. because i wanted to come up here and, you know, hang out until i was executed. but then that changed as time went on. death row was the worsest place on the planet. i mean, it's -- you've been sentenced to die. extinction, it's over with. the finality. you stay in your cell for orientation for several days until you meet the committee. then you go meet the committee. that's when the process really starts. from that point forward, then that's when you start to realize you're really on death row. a lot of people can't deal with it so they commit suicide. or they become introverts. and they start to go crazy. my case was overturned in 2003 for a violation. so i was sent back to the county jail to have a new trial. i lost the trial again and they hung on the death penalty. so they decided after about several months not to refile the death penalty. so they sent me back t

the day this video was shot was the last time i felt well. this was my greatest passion. i dreamt of a life of dance, but it wasn't meant to be. when i was 17, i was diagnosed with glandular fever. it then turned into something called post—viralfatigue, which, because at the time i kept pushing and pushing my body, it eventually led to something called me. the way i describe it to my friends use, imagine you had the flu, and then imagine you had the worst hangover of your life at the same time. for me at the worst, i had crippling muscle pain in my legs, i had such a dull ache in my body, i was always so tired and fatigued, i would sleep most of the day, and the worst part was no one could tell me why my body was broken. over the years i have started to get better, but because when i had me it was such a dark time in my life, i never wanted to think about it ever again. but as i have been getting better, i have started to wonder what life is like for other young sufferers of me, you know, and ultimately i'd like to find out, is there hope? i am on my way to meet sophie, wh

having too much fun there you know i was talking to all things i was having too much fun and then i went out after meeting everybody tom styer jimmy hoffa who who i know for ever and i was actually reporting for jimmy door at the same time i had a camera in my pocket and we were doing a live stream where jimmy door show so now i go into the main room alley vashti he's talking to me everybody is talking to me and like i sit down i have dinner steak in and great they have wine everything and i felt really bad i went to the c.n.n. table and i talked to that guy mani raw who called pronounce my name like i was a russian agent like they're rascality you know. and then i'm talking to joe johns kate baldwin chrysalis i'm sitting at their table and they're about to get the big award and i just couldn't you know take it anymore you know. julian assange is sitting in a little place he's like it's eighty degrees or no air conditioning he can't communicate only isolated his mother i spoke to the night before and i felt so guilty i had to take a bath so i stood up in a room that included rod r

was doing? at the time, it wasn't clear. i think in retrospect, it was probably a bit of both. >> why are you banned from russia? >> well, after russia annexed territory in ukraine and supported separatists in eastern ukraine, the obama administration put on a series of sanctions against russian individuals and some russian business people, so they responded. and they put some american officials and americans -- non-officials like myself, because i was already a professor at stanford. so that's why i'm on the sanctions list. the last ambassador, by the way, to be on that sanctions list was a man by the name of george kennen, so i'm in good company, but it's tragic company, because for most of my adult life, i've been going back and forth to the soviet union and russia. i've lived there many times. i used to do research there. so it was important for me to go there. and now i've been out of the country for four years. that's the longest i've been outside of russia since 1983. >> former u.s. ambassador to russia michael mcfaul w

i know your sleep. was you know you know i think he had a happy childhood it was. an unusual one with his parents and this love triangle and jim that all of this is the story that inspired the film jewel is him and it all adds up to an unusual childhood while he was growing up he had a lot of contact to artists and ways he lived between two dads and among it's quite an amazing story for that time the one nine hundred twenty s. and nine hundred thirty s. . of our youth i think it on what it book alloyed and they have. to me it's a bit strange for me and at times even a bit embarrassing that people always confuse me with the true form movie a.g.m. they meet me and say oh the little girl from you will asia i'm main fatter. and my father a german writer had a very dear french friend and on air heist asha's name was in fact he had met my father in paris before world war one and they became such good friends line that whenever they met a woman they wondered which one of them would fall in love with her and possib

initially when i was at "the wall street journal" and i was a reporter i did have friendships and we traveled all over the country together and then it was a change but then they traveled on the same bus as the press so it was hard not to establish some friendships. can you talk about how her campaign and the relationship in the press versus the campaign? >> i always think she was a better candidate in 2008 but had a bitter campaign in 2016. when she ran for president she had been a senator and was involved in always in touch with her constituents said she was connected to the problems people were having in pennsylvania, indiana but then the other aspect she had the new york press corps. should comshe would come back we and crack jokes and she called us significant others because she felt bad for keeping us away so she was more comfortable with the press because she was used to these reporters but she was losing and she shut down her guard. they are always running better as the underdog and then when we got 2016, she thought she was going to win and she was very cautious. she also lik

funny what i was doing, i was getting laughs and got cast in a play. and i fell in love with the play and theater, and you know, i was struggling in school, so i was having a hard time in school, and yet i found this thing they could do, and that i really enjoyed doing. so from that moment on, i wanted to be in plays all the time. and i auditioned and i was playing music and get in the plays, and after high school, incidentally i didn't have enough credits to graduate with my class. i had to go back to high school and graduate with the following class because i wasn't doing well, but i was good at acting. and when i got out of high school, i started a theater company with some of the kids there. it's called steppen wolf theater, it's been around almost 35 years now. it's grown into something that's like a chicago institution, and we've been all over the world. we've had a lot of success and it all started with kids, you know, in highland park who wanted to do plays. >> when was the first break? when did that come? >> you know, it depends. there were a s

time for me to be sickly talk about where your job was i want it when i was a young man. well i want to bring up this jimi that is referencing something you said before your election this is katie she says this is beautiful hash tag you can rest assured that whenever you feel scared or in secure or you don't understand anything about this community that doesn't speak english coming off on the door at the city council meeting i'll be there to open it see him elect jimmy and this as i've several people have noted online was after eight pretty harsh election and there were epithets and there were racial undertones to a lot of this campaign talk to us about that campaign and then how important that was for you to then when you know my daughter and i have to admit we're not going to go to. city council and i was pretty excited like ok what can i do to represent you what he can serve as a as a member of the community has to do one of his i want these mexicans are out here in the woods and i want them to speak english so you know i said a lot of things are changing our country a

however, by the time i was shot, shifa was thoroughly overloaded. there's a kind of ron rober -- round-robin disaster system. even though i might have received better care at shifa, there was no way i deserved to go there. so i was sent to a different hospital, which provided me great care and did everything that was needed. but it was completely overwhelmed as well. every hospital here is overwhelmed. i work at shifa. i work in that emergency room with the one you showed. really, the situation is very dire in normal times. in normal times, i don't have to freeze people when i sew them. in normal times i can't give them pain medication like morphine. in normal times it is hard to find gloves or gauze. so the situation is terrible in normal times. now that there is this disaster that is happening, this disaster unfolding all over gaza, it has been even worse. it has got to the point where in fact, i have to very carefully pick who it was that i use gloves on in the field because we have a shortage of gloves. i would use bandage on because we have a sh

i was a correctional officer for eight years. i worked at san quentin prison, where i was promoted to sergeant there. >> supervisor cohen: and maybe you can speak to what you see, 'cause i, too, have seen you at the police commission meetings at an active participant. speak to the neighborhood level needs: things that you've seen, things that you've experienced. i've seen you on marchs, rallies. i've heard you articulate concerns in public comment. talk to me a little bit about how you believe that serving on this policy body would help bridge the cap gaps from you a both have heard crying out for reform. >> well, that's very significant to me because when we have these town halls, police commissions, protests, or whatnot, it's -- it's apparent that there's a problem. for that many people to show up, to stand in those long lines. to say what they have to say, it's obvious there is ha problem. it connects with my experience with law enforcement, because i had the same problems. i've seen the side, what they're saying exists, but th

was i became aware of how bad the damage was to me, i had to make a choice. the going to be a victim or was i going to focus on the great things that were happening and the people that were coming towards me to help me in my recovery? what is important in life? ultimately, i was able to keep the focus on getting better. i had to relearn how to walk. a had to relearn how to do so many other things, but i had so much great support from so many wonderful people. one of the things i had great support from was the lsu community. i had one call me in the hospital and i think broughton in ours to translate, as you can imagine. tigers. well, invited me to his office to cook some gumbo for me, invited me to an lsu football game and then said go tigers. . that was really neat. the lsu baseball too much to the college world series. the coach dedicated the first pitch of the first game in the college world series to my recovery. that is part of what this lsu family is all about. we stick together. and as part of your legacy now. we always a stick together as lsu tigers. a
