one of the first recorded black athlete protests was in the early 1900s by boxer jack johnson who boldly racism by punching white women in the face and dating white women. a trail blazer indeed. sadly, many black athlete protesters don't get the recognition they deserve. for example, we may remember carlos and smith, but at the very next summer, olympic track star cane colette protest bid having a casual conversation during the national anthem, chatting in line like they were at 7-eleven. what are you in line for? justice! that's cool, i was just reading reese's pieces. we all know lebron james fought for "black lives matter," but in 2016 the entire n.b.a. indiana fever people took a knee before a playoff game to protest police brutality. the fever lost that game and i lost $400 betting on them. i know what i owe you, ricky! stop getting my kids involved in this. you will get your money. ( laughter ) and we all hear about collin kaepernick and his protests, but not everyone remembers n.b.a. player mahmoud abdul raoof who refused to stand during the anthem to protest injustice against mus

johnson said, jack, a lot of people who won't vote for you because he said, you are ready for state. you got a population, they vote well, you've got things to support your economy. alaska wants them to. they are not as prepared for statehood. their economy is not as strong, the people up there. if you let alaska in, we could get the votes to get you in. alaska, this was the interesting thing at the time, alaska promises at that time, promises to be a democratic state, you promise to be at him of republican state. that was the perception of the people. sure enough, burns said okay. this was and 58. it's okay. let's do it. sure enough, they kept their word. alaska went in first which caused burns and the democrats because he's allowed that to happen. immediately after that, hawaii passed both houses. the elections were going to be held and burns was immediately, the leader of the party, there was no real question about that. he was going to run for governor. the difficulty was that alaska, he was a lawyer in town, kansas, i think originally. bill was an attractive guy, another catholi

johnson and mcnamara were? >> my assessment, i don't know if i agree with jack here, i don't know if anything could have been done differently. i also think we need to be careful about this argument. my reading of memorandums through pacific command and into the white house, there is really to mcnamara's and to westmoreland. there is a public and private version of each. in those private conversations, they were pretty darn honest -- honest. when they met in the white house, when he comes a number of times, his number -- comments are very different in private. mcnamara i think is the same way. we can find fault with him in terms of being more honest publicly but in private, when you look at some of the memoranda that westmoreland and the secretary to -- of defense were giving the president, they were brutally honest. mcnamara, a number of memoranda as early as 1966, are pretty forthright in terms of the possibility of what was achievable. one of the things we need to consider as citizens is when we try to be engaged with discussions on war is how honest the dialogue that we are hearing is and how that might be di

jack. in terms of turnout and mobilization for turnout, derek johnson, the india -- p president talk to us a little bit about what his organization is doing to get folks out to vote this year. did was naacp, what we invested heavily in data. to really look at what is turnout among african-americans for midterm elections. we recognize there is a dip in turnout compared to presidential elections. we begin to target infrequent african-american voters. those who -- those are voters who vote during presidential elections. we aggressively communicate to those voters to increase turnout . >> what kind of information are you -- >> we're looking at the most recent kavanaugh hearings and what that means to civil rights. we talk about health care, education, all of the bread-and-butter issues that is important. what we really look at is our polling data. african-americans feel disrespected. we talk about earning back our respect for the power of the vote. host: buzz feed has the story. black voters are underrepresented. black people are dramatically underrepresented. analysis by buzz feed is showing

johnson's case was remarkable. he was saved by one vote, right? >> great deal of controversy about bribery and, you know, jackas doing "profiles in courage," there's a reason why there's only one volume which we've seen further evidence of in recent weeks, he sort of made, made the votes to save johnson in a heroic figure. that has not stood the test of time. johnson was a really bad president. he was arguable y the most raci state paper in history. he was leading a campaign against congress and most of the articles in the articles of impeachment were about how he had attacked congress, which gives you some sense of how politically tactile this is and how, if this were to happen in the new year, it will be as political as it is legal. >> all right. the book "impeachment an american history" is on sale tomorrow. john meacham, thank you. >> it will be a best certainly. he's the beyonce of the literary world. everything he touches turns to gold. >> before we go to break i want to put out a few thank us. i had an action-packed weekend. >> talk about on saturday, the kids are still talking about it. >> friday, sat
