same thing with jesse jackson thing. but julian bond, all these who were proteges of martin luther king jr actually continue to carry his legacy in politics or philanthropy or civic duty. you know, john lewis, for example, john lewis was, another nashville student. john lewis went on to become a congressman for 33 years, you know, and john lewis talk specifically about fact that martin luther king jr. brought him from nashville to atlanta on a bus because john lewis having trouble in school and invited him to atlanta. so in 1963, john lewis, the youngest person to speak at the march on washington. and ten years later, he's in congress. so these are kind of things that kind of that legacy that carries on. rodney king got at the age of 39. so he lived a very relatively young life. but his legacy and the people that worked with him and followed him continues now until this day. and it continues through to the young. and as i mentioned, james orange was james orange. his daughter just passed away today. so that's kind of ano

jesse jackson was running in 1984, he didn't specifically go after walter mondale who is from minnesota who was the front runner but was talking about hubert humphrey, former vice president karen for president in 1968 and 52 as well and 1972 and hubert humphrey was the only real progressive leader who ever came out of minnesota, put 2 and 2 together, he's trying to go after walter mondale and he thought that was a great line. insults, no matter what side you' re on is something you can appreciate the way politicians are able to insult, sometimes it can be an impish first grade sophomore insult, other times can be something really creative and you say wow. >> host: the great american political trivia challenge available online. thank you for spending a few minutes with us on about books >> great to be on thstion i dedicated the book t >> reporter: listen to full episodes of about books on the c-span or when or wherever you get your podcasts or watch online, booktv.org. >> weekends on c-span2 are an intellectual feast. every saturday american history tv documents america's story and on su
