john lewis got a skull crack on the edmund pettus bridge in 1965. people say in the march from selma to montgomery. okay. you remember what that was to get people the right to vote. and so anybody who my vote doesn't matter. hey, you're statistically wrong. and it's you're thumbing your nose at people. those three civil rights workers at john lewis at martin luther king. you're that the efforts that they were choosing before and you know the suffragettes you're saying that what they did does not merit honor does not merit support and other thing is that making folks understand that if you're dissatisfied with government and the way and you're apathetic because government is not response if well government's not going to be responsive if you're not a part of the process to change the government, you know, i mean, there are other we see active and the congressman better than me you know people around guns those folks who are second amendment types i guess that's what they call gun supporters. they're they're active. you know, they vote they're single

and that's ultimately decision emma goldman made and it's the decision john lewis made and lewis made it under duress. martin luther king begged him to change his speech and he said no. and martin luther king said, john, it doesn't sound like you and. lewis kind of clapped back at him and said, yeah. martin it sounds like us, meaning the young people who'd really been in the fight. similarly, emma goldman's lawyer quit because was hell bent on, giving a defense of from the courtroom where. she was about to be sentenced to ultimately a year in prison, potentially more years if she had given the speech. you want to give and she decided she would bring more people to her cause by a sympathetic being sent to jail, as opposed to someone who used their last words of freedom before stint in jail to incite people to more, more violence and and lewis ultimately made that decision too, which is rather than confront america with his lived reality, he would explain to america his lived reality and instead say, so if this offends you as much as it has offended me. join us as opposed to wake up. so

and he said to john lewis, young man, i've been waiting for this all of my life.ase, please, do this for me. and lewis relents. but also that energy from lewis also kind of tells a story about what happened during that year. at the beginning of that year, only randolph and rustin really wanted a march. the naacp, the urban league, they did not want anything to do with it. sncc thought it would be like a big show come a march in washington where as they wanted to march on washington. it is really the events in birmingham, alabama, earlier in the year which forced the leadership -- this comes from the grassroots. it forces the leadership to say, well, now we have to have a march. we have to do something. the story of that year is the leaders literally -- figuratively running to catch up which on the day they literally did because they go to meet the people in congress and the march start without them. they have to kind of run to catch up. the picture that looks like they're leading the march, they are near the front but they are not at the front. they just cleared p

figure in american history to have mugshot memorialized from martin luther king jr., rosa parks, john lewisoswald, jeffrey ep sen, o.j. simpson, robert downey jr. tom is with us to walk us through the most noteworthy mugshots. this will be remembered. it's alongside others, too. >> it really is. and you pointed it out there very well. there are at least three categories of mugshots. there are the sure enough criminals, people we all know are there because of serious crimes and get convicted of serious crimes and move on. then there are the celebrity mugshots that would come up, people who in some way or another stumbled no a run-in with the law, maybe public drunkenness, in the case of o.j. simpson, very serious charges. other charges out there. nick nolte, a drug abuse issue, which he said helped drive him into rehab to make things better for him. those often become lesser issues in a way, big celebrity causes but don't have a giant impact on the whole of society. and then those who are people who really have stood for some kind of giant moment in the rights of americans and the fight for

: cox worked alongside then 23-year-old civil rights activist john lewis, who was the chairman of sncc the two men as they re-wrote the speech to tone it down, to make it less critical of the kennedy administration's civil rights bill, which they felt didn't go far enough to protect people from police brutal. >> reporter: john lewis and jim foreman myself were in the back of the lincoln memorial, rechanging john lewis' speech to make sure that while it was critical, it was not negative. >> reporter: that had to be an incredible moment? >> but what was more incredible to me is that john got up after all of that controversy and delivered a fantastic speech. >> it is true that we support the miadministration's civil rights bill. we support it with great reservation, however. >> i have never been here before. >> reporter: this week, flanagan brought his daughters back to the place where history was made. cox prefers to stay away this time, saying that his marching days are behind him. both agree wile much was accomplished that day, the work is not over. >> we are still, while we are in a m

martin luther king junior and the district represented by the late john lewis lewis. am reminded of the seeds planted by dr. king, congressman lewis and those who marched before us and their courage and power in the unwavering fight for freedom, equality and justice. the principle of collective power is part of the black and jewish caucus period and proud to serve as a co-chair with debbie wasserman schultz. i lead in the spirit of congressman john lewis who understood the deeply interconnected fight for justice shared by black and jewish communities. the interconnectedness remains strong as we face rising hate speech and antisemitism, attacks on freedom and attempts to erase our history. we know we fight together, victory is ours. it is a reminder for congress that we are stronger together and stronger when we build bridges to respect one another and take care to one of -- understand one another and stronger when we come together to move our nation forward. the caucused strengthens mutual respect and understanding for the good of the whole, to reflect the light we wi

and he's got john lewis and snick and, all these other people who people who have flown from all over the country taking busses and trains to join this protest. we're expecting to walk across that bridge with him in the lead. and king is trying to figure out what if we just go to the bridge and make a prayer and turn around. he's trying to find a way to please everybody. and you can't. and i think some people view that as one of history. basically he aborted the aborted the march and he went to a certain point and then right. and stopped and a lot of people felt like he he sold out. so what happened in chicago? i mean, it looked like the movement almost turned a made a diversion when he went north, when he went to chicago trying to to work civil rights there. what happened in chicago? why wasn't he well-received king? you know, we often tell the story of king as if in last years of his life, he became more radical. and then he began to focus northern segregation and northern racism. i make the contention others have written this as well, that he was radical all along and. he was calli

we also must pass the john lewis voting rights act. and i think reverend al, in the bible, you know it talks about -- when god says today that after the enemies have taken everything from and burned everything, god says to gain a pursuit. i think we need to have a cover all plan. we need to recover voting rights. we need to recover gun laws that keep our people and our children and our neighbors safe. as we do that, i think we will see a change. we will have confronted and called out the demon of white racism, as you know, it is a mental disease. we will redeem the soul of america. >> thank you so much, always an honor to speak with the bishop frank reid. he is in jacksonville, florida. coming up, as we mark the 16th anniversary of the march on washington, an exclusive look on how vice president kamala harris keeps the dream alive as she works each day. a special item she keeps close to inspire her. first, my colleague jessica layton back in new york with other top news stories. >> thank you reverend al. a lot to get to. thank y>> stor

the youngest speaker at the march on washington and a future congressman, john lewis, who became a friend spoke and prayed that we keep pushing, keep going. set the record straight. this is our charge. keep pushing. keep going. set the record straight. i know we can. just remember who we are. we are the united states of america. there is not a single goal we have ever set that we have failed to accomplish and we did it together area not a single goal. it takes time, a lot of pain, and a lot of work. but think of all the people, all the individuals, all the children you have given hope to. it is not hyperbole, i am being deadly earnest. think about what you have done and what to do. let me conclude by saying this, i think we are at an inflection point in history. not just in the u.s. but the world. things change. in fundamental ways. i had a physics professor is that she said an inflection point is when you are going down a highway at 60 miles per hour and all of a sudden you take a right turn. can never get back on the path you were on. you have a whole new destination. the way i look at

john lewis went from being a troublemaker that cardinal boyle objected to to being a distinguished national leader and member of congress. but voting rights are not secure. i looked at the program from the march 60 years ago and two things struck me. one, it was almost all men. [laughter] women saying. -- women sang. mahalia jackson told martin to tell them about the dream. on saturday, it is not all men anymore. the most important thing for me was dr. king's 15-year-old granddaughter, yolanda renÉe king, who lit up the crowd. so that is different, thank god. the other thing that struck me is most of the speakers -- half of them, in fact -- were religious speakers and there were precious few on saturday, and that says maybe something about the religious community but also about the movement. tonight, we invite religious leaders, we invite women, we invite you in the lot of others to think about what the marks meant and what it calls us to do now. black unemployment, black people twice as likely to be jobless 60 years ago and that is still the case. black poverty was twice what it was for wh

everything we can to make sure we enshrine and codify these protections that you can find in the john lewising rights act, as well as the freedom to vote act. >> all right, congresswoman shontel brown of ohio. i tell you, sweetheart, i will talk to him on monday. he talks almost as good as you. he's almost as good as you. thank you for being with us. >> thank you rev.. >> coming up, my political brando -- panel breaks down how the latest trump indictment could shake up the 2024 presidential race. stay tuned. stay tuned that keeps you dry? all of the things that you're looking for in a pad, that is always discreet. look at how it absorbs all of the liquid. and locking it right on in! you feel no wetness. - oh my gosh! - totally absorbed! i got to get some always discreet!

in the united states of america we went through all of these fights, the march in washington, john lewisof that. and these so-called leaders who are so bold as to unapologetically proposed laws and make it more difficult for the american people vote. the goal! so i do worry that we have to do everything we can to remind people of why it is important, and also fight against those people who are trying to make it difficult. >> one of the things we are doing with the march is that we have -- anti-defamation league. >> yes, that's great. >> and you need those. >> yeah. >> because i think that as you have always had through your career, it's about bringing everyone together. >> a coalition. >> and if there is no coalition, there is no victory. >> that's right. >> and is that, what you hoped that this, despite all of the acrimony we got some circles, despite you being targeted at least politically, is that what you open this hour that we can do? get beyond whatever travel differences and fight for all -- when we look again, as commemorating 60 years ago, and the movement as it was and fueled a

and my ears as harvard president, i got to know john lewis, and at my last commencement, he gave thel seat, and he said, madam president, thank you for making -- he talked about my eisenhower letter that you just quoted, and he set, thank you for making necessary trouble. as i was writing the book in the years after that, i thought about how that phrase, necessary trouble, with such a perfect description of what my growing up had been like, which was that i had to make trouble to escape the constraints and injustices of society in which i was growing up in secretary virginia, a society in which my mother said to me, it's a man's world sweetie. the sooner you learn that, the better off you'll be. i was just in revolt from the time that i was about two years old with the we see clothes that i had to wear until i started writing letters to eisenhower. i came from a very conservative, conventional family, so i had to make trouble. it was necessary to survive. i called the john lewis about two months, three months before she died, and asked him if i could use this title, if i could use hi

>> and when i think about, this is the home state of course, that john lewis represented. u know, i served with mr. lewis in the congress, also in the congressional black caucus. he is one of the reasons why became a voting rights lawyer in the first place. the idea that, in our democracy, every person's voice voice counts. and that we have shed blood, to get to this point, two or we can have a pluralistic democracy, in which everyone can be involved. and you win some, reverent, and you lose some. but you don't question the results, you don't try to overturn the election. certainly in texas, there been elections we didn't agree with. you never see is trying to say well, it shouldn't count, because we don't like how the results came out. and that's why we have to move from a model, reds, of the supreme court being the -- of our rights. to doing this right legislatively. and that's why i've been leading the charge in congress, to have to protect the right to vote and, protect against election subversion, and do everything we can to strengthen our democracy. because i want to

i saw that along with john lewis when he passed away, in the back of the house chamber and said we need to speak out. allow slogan narrative to kill the black lives matter movement the way it did. in the 60s. talking about the student movement. we call it the civil rights movement. and the movement that was in the 1960s for students. in 1909 so all of that, and all of that try to put these in perspective. with proper perspective. in the proper perspective. if it wasn't for them and with all of that not to destroy that. >> the person of the campus chapter of the young democrats, active in young democrats statewide tyler mitchell would like to ask given all the events of the previous year, what are the prospects america can build a strong foundation in the area of socially quality? >> the prospects can be done. there is a lot these days. where there is a will there is a way. what we have to do is develop the will. i don't think enough people develop the will. it is so easy, to pretend -- the hard part is working together and putting aside differences. to talk about that -- i see people a

it really is, young people like john lewis played a critical role in the civil rights movement.in, that we're integrating schools, and taking part in freedom rides. young people today, in 2023, are continuing that work. organizers of the 60th anniversary of the march on washington ensured that the work of today's young activists or a front and center. featuring voices like my next guest. wisdom cole joins me now. he is the national director of the naacp youth and college division. and he spoke at today's march. they people were fired up and ready to go. can you just describe the atmosphere at the march and the importance of young voices like yours and yolanda renee king being at the forefront today? >> this is an opportunity for young people from across the nation to come together and really talk about the issues that are impacting them for today and tomorrow. my message to young people today was that they are the architects. there are going to be picking up the spot, taking the end of it, creating new ways to address the most problems that are impacting our life today. >> i thi

in the current state of affairs with the black lives matter what happened to us in the 1960s and john lewis i were demonstrating, and student non- violence. we were - came by with people with a new slogan, burn baby burn. that undercut and undermine the efforts what we were doing and i saw that predict in just a few months before he passed away the two of us sat in the back of the house chamber and he said that we needed to speak out. we just did not stand by and allow a slogan to kill the black lives matter movement the way that it did in the movement that we were part of back in the 60s and i'm a lawyer and i keep talking about the student movement. you never hear me call it the civil rights movement and is always been a civil rights movement. what was wrong back in the 60s, they were the students of the nonviolence predict the end aa cp, so there's always been it would be the insurrection of 1822 of these things always took place braden i try to put things in the proper perspective so i say to the students keep things in the proper perspective and one of them is he listening. and let's r

john lewis is a researcher with george washington's program on extremism. he's watched his former president trump and other conservative voices take aim at political opponents. you've seen this right-wing media ecosystem kind of turned their attention to a specific individual, a specific group that's always going to have this triple fact. just this week a texas woman was arrested and charged with threatening judge tanya chutkan who's overseeing trump's federal election interference case. lewis says this is an surprising in the current heated political environment, individuals who are feeling increasingly emboldened to again, not just, you know, put a post online, but begin to send targeted french to, you know, swat to dax, too commit, you know, potential acts of violence. and when the former president was indicted in georgia, the names of the grand jurors were made public. they now face threatening and violent post on right-wing social media sites. lewis says much of the anger will remain online, but it has the potential to become dangerous among the few to

what are the young john lewis say?ion that is being proposed is too little, and it's too late. when we begin to think about the context of that march, what happened before, what happened after. we can understand, we've been on a very complex journey until now. >> one of 2%, for sure. kaneisha, let's get to one of the big issues in 1963. it was voting rights. in the 2023 federal government, it's still being pressed into action against efforts to disenfranchise black voters now in alabama. jackson, mississippi's creation of a white voting on cleave in a majority black district, florida, the new restrictions there on voter registration. you have texas, where officials are denying help to spanish language voters. right here in neighboring new jersey, there's a county there which has entered a consent decree to publish voting materials in spanish. why does it feel like it's consistently one step forward, but two steps back? >> it probably feels familiar, because all this harkens back to a historical thing that we know as a
