i'm a big ken burns van, but ava duvernay has really figured out a way to match justice and entertainmentes with selma and also with 13th and this. so she has figured out a way to take a very difficult, thorny and sad case, and turn it into something to get people fired up and talking about it and now this prosecutor finds out there's consequences for this. i think that, you know, we all know this case was a mischaracterization of justice. it's been talked about for years. donald trump took out full page ads calling for the death penalty. these people have not suffered the consequences. she's a best-selling author for her work in this case. she's had to resign from boards and step down from these, i'm sure. these are the consequences. >> she was a prosecutor. we should make the people aware of this. she was a prosecutor in new york city during that time. >>> i want to talk about now your show. this episode was inspired, i should say, by the flint water crisis and as you started looking into it you found toxic communities like flint all over. let's look at a clip and then we'll talk. >> pe

i love can burns's -- ken burns 's series. more people watched it than the population of the union and confederacy combined. one of those people was me. i was a freshman home from college. in my clueless way, i had gone to college to answer one simple question -- how can i be a good man in a bad world? 'n the soft glow of my parents television, i found an answer at the end of that first night with the narrator read a letter by a young major to his wife. sarah, my love for you is deathless. nothing but omnipotence could break it. yet, my love of country comes over me like a strong wind and dares me on with all these chains to the battlefield. i do notreturn -- if return, never forget how much i love you. when my last breath escapes me, it will whisper your name. i remember this moment distinctly because it was the moment i became a civil war historian. to my young brain, everything that was honorable in this world , everything i wanted to be, was love of country and love of family, this swelling strings served back to me as tru

. >> there is a terrific documentary by sarah and ken burns that explored the case chronicled the legalspects of the case. i was very interested in the boys. the boys who had become men, their families, the affect of the incarceration of one boy on a whole community, and so what i really wanted to look at this case from the space of the legalities, yes, but also the humanity that we don't talk about hardly enough. >> let's talk more about the netflix series and the case it highlights with areva martin, a legal analyst and civil rights attorney. good to have you with us. >> thank you, george. >> i have to readily admit this was hard to watch as a parent of a little boy myself. this is the type of story that strikes to a fear that is always in the back of your mind and there is never a certain or easy answer to that fear. what was your take on this series? >> yeah, i think you're right, george. this is the kind of story that many -- i would venture to say most african-american families are, you know, we heard so much about these central park five. we know about the injustices that exist i

it was ken burns who said this is america's best idea. we don't want millions of americans to show up at our national parks and not be able to use the bathroom, sleep in the campgrounds, walk on the trails, enjoy the great outdoors that we have. all of our -- every one so far as i can tell of our environmental and outdoors organizations are busily supporting this effort. the administration is supporting it. it has bipartisan leadership in the senate and i thank the chairman for her focus on it and i hope that we can mark it up, put it on the floor, pass it, turn it into law and get the parks -- get the deferred maintenance at least cut in half as the bill would do. i thank the chairman and that concludes my questions. >> senator cantwell. >> thank you, mr. chairman. thank you for the witnesses and for the hearing today. the outdoor recreation economy is booming in my state, $26 billion in spending supporting over 200,000 direct jobs and provides the state with about $2.3 billion in annual revenue. so, yes, i'm for anything that's going to

just seen ken burns and an stror documentary on vietnam. we've had presidents who have lied before. john kennedy in 1963, ken burns picked up on a tape talking about vietnam saying we could neff win there, the peep hate us there but we can't pull out until after l.b.j. in '64 right after he got in there saying there's no no way. 57% -- i'm not defending donald trump here. i am just saying that presidents have lied and the impact has been deadly and some would say far more extreme of course he'll probably launch a huge attack tonight, but we can at least be grateful when it comes to war is less, not more. >> and i'm grateful for that and so i'll join the or what happens next? the demands that secretary of state pompeo are making is an announcement complete and other capitulation on all the issues. so there has to be a position of what we're willing to accept, what we're willing o live how we're willing to governor some car ots to the iranians. in order to, you know, to move forward from here. it just doesn't seem to me that is worked out. so what happens pt next time if, you know, if

hree years ago i went to a graduation of a friend of mine stanford and ken burns gave it commencement speech and was a 45-minute all-out attack and erything republican, specifically donald trump. he the then-president mr. nas y was applauding as if he and i have not given money to stanford since. inappropriate. it is as if all republicans are scum. and, mr. burns, i of love his movies, but he needs to rethink going.e is the graduation should be about the students. to ou have some whiches.com give -- wisdom to give them, fine.s pence's speech went up to the line in my opinion also. about some life wisdom, not about your political positions and the entire speech politics. be about you don't know what the audience came there for. they came there to celebrate the academic achievements of the students. host: thank you. luis is in maine. louise is in maine. i graduated undergrad bob and our speaker was hope. on the hope focused students. he was a very, very good speaker. not at all political. all, it id anything at was satire, you know, poking fun bad situations. defaming you know, other pe
