walter was on the team with jim brown that won the championship in 1964 that shut down johnny unitas and by 27, he was the quarterback who was the quarterback but walter is still alive and walter and i have probably taught 25, 30 times about all of this. when he was going through his life as an nfl player, he was from detroit and he met malcom x and went to his speech in detroit, the one we listened to the segment on. but he also will be one of the last guys talk for the shooting starts so he's a very important guy. he's a wonderful human being. most of our television conversations and with him saying peace and love, jim. and that's appropriate ithink . that's his big tagline. so stokes is running and you won't see king with him but king was there, very much and when he came to cleveland, he met with pastors but he made sure to include ahmed evans who was the militant national at the time so this is a picture of them. this is also that picture, this is the day before carl stokes is elected. and so king, and to me, i love this part of the story. i don't know if you know this but after

but i interviewed jim brown, i did a show with him for five years. i interviewed him tuesday.and he said yeah, we came from slavery but look how far we've come.and he says when it comes to back then, no one ever justified slavery but in 2018, he says if a white person in manhasset didn't pay for my school without telling me, i wouldn't have become the running back for syracuse. a lot of white people died because slavery was so wrong and they wanted to fix it. - - said it back to me so we can take the statues and put it separate. from past. if you are confederate general, if i'm black and i looked at that everyday. i'd have a problem with that. but if you look at jefferson, washington, madison, monroe i believe. everyone except adams and our first eight presidents, they had slaves. i can't rationalize that. i can say they were genius bar for them to make sense of that, i can't do it. i would say this, i thought the 60 minutes special was great. can we put a plaque next to the statue that says, they also said they had 26 slaves or rationalize slavery. somehow put that along with
