one is mobilizing eligible latinos to ledgister because there are latino voters and eligible latino voters in absolutely every district in america. and sectly, and this one is actually more important, is creating really broadening out that coalition to include a lot of the people who are right now completely terrified of illegal immigrants, calling them illegals, for example, you know, classifying any kind of a comprehensive immigration reform as amnesty. i think, joy, about the 50-year anniversary of the civil rights act, and last summer, we were tu talking about the march on washington. the reason we were able to move forward on this historic legislation was not just because of the heroics and the leadership in the african-american community, but because 25% of the people who marched on washington were white. were people who said, i completely believe in this. this is not america to have two types of people, and i'm going to march and let my voice be heard. >> yeah, and you know, we were talking in the previous segment to the co-producer of harvest of empire. dr. king at a certain point

latino legislators would like it restored to increase the number of admissions.earlier this year, now it gets really interesting. the legislature came close to placing a constitutional amendment on the november ballot. what would that have done? it would have reinstate d affirmative action. then asian-americans after a huge public outcry in the asian-american community, especially in southern california. they reversed the vote. they asked the proposed amendment to be left off the ballot. is it as simple as saying latino lawmakers would like to say affirmative action reaffirmed, brought back, reinstated and on the other side, the asian lawmakers would like things to stay the way they are. one raised reports based on how the race is index fld the uc system. is it that simple? >> we always want to avoid the word simple. but it gets down to the two groups. each one wants what they think is their fair share. what does it means in terms of the future? >> short-term, this issue is under study, by the way. it's under examination, according to the speaker's office. that's

for starters this was a study that was done of latinos and patriotism, and 76% of latinos believe americas the number one country in the world, so there is a strong feeling of patriotism, as far as military is concerned, in my family multiple generations have served in the military, and that's true for a lot of -- i think we have 17% of all people in the -- for me it isn't about rubber stamping the u.s.' policies. i don't really support most of the u.s. military efforts, but it is about really engaging in the opportunity that the u.s. offs. as an ethnic minority, you do more bagger cues talk more football, and have the biggest u.s. flag to show you are a #patriotism. >> jorge says my ethnicity makes me who i am, the flag and the country is what i represent, and in the united states, i follow the melting pot, or tossed salad philosophy. i can speak to myself, often times in order to improve our patism, we have to go ten beyond to prove to this jury that we are american illic enough. where is the tension here, in this country will it be like that in 20 years in where for an ethnic minority,

i am the head of the house of latino labor. [applause] and also the chair of the national hispanic leadership agenda. to have aare here very important conversation addressing action, how failure to pass immigration reform harms workers. we want to be very strategic answer -- and concise, and we want to look at it from a more holistic effective, like the long-term impacts that enforcement only policies are having on the working class. to put two elements on the table. on the one hand, we have all of these republican anti-immigrant pieces of legislation, and a number of states have a devastating impact on the quality of life, in particular of the latino community, and on the other hand, we also have the highest levels of deportation that we have ever seen in the nation, so we asked the question policies, andese what is the impact that these policies are having on the ground, not only on immigrant communities, but in particular the latino community. panel, experts, leaders, organizers, and we're really excited to be here. let's st

that if you were african-american or latino you are more likely to receive the court order than other prevailing demographics. and this despite the fact we see there is a history of discriminatory practices, disparities in the mental health services associated with these communities, that african-americans are more likely to receive poorer prognosis, diagnosis of more severe condition, lower quality and more sedating drug prescriptions and higher levels of long-term institutionalization than their white peers. so, my concern is not, you know, although i am very concerned about the number of mental health cases we see in all of our communities, my concern is there may be a disproportionate impact on communities of color, but also immigrant communities where english is not their first language. which is why i propose the concept of a pilot, b, the outside evaluator. make sure those disparities are not happening here in san francisco as well. i do think an outside evaluator can ensure that, that when we run this program, that we are able to look at race, ethnicity and language and make s

there on the left and right, the left is african american suspensions remaining steady at 50% and latino remaining steady at 30%. just to reemphasize, the number of students of color that have been suspended has dropped by half, but the disproportionalty is still a huge issue. we have -- my predecessor had the thought to put in out of school office referrals, when you send a kid to a counseling office. and we set up a robust simple system to use. we have enhanced that system and this year for the first time we are seeing it very widely used. nevertheless, some schools are using it and some aren't, and through the resolution we're going to be asking schools next year for everyone, whenever a kid is sent out of the classroom that it's reported to the system. when you look at the thousands of referrals that we received, all the referrals for the kids being put out of class for discipline, you see a mass for disproportionalty again. you know, so we can see that there's a lot of support needed here. i wanted to give you that picture before moving on. so some other good news. the biggest umbre

voters and young latinos.mentioned, the republican party, and particularly speaker boehner and the extremers in his caucus need to understand that for us in the latino community, we're a voting bloc and a growing voting bloc and denying aid to these children is not going to get our vote and denying and repealing doca is not going to get our vote. blocking immigration reform is not going to get our vote. so they need to decide how are they going to include the latino voters out there in this country who care about all of these issues. so far, we have seen no effort and if anything, the way they have handled it has been to send a signal that they don't really care much about being an inclusive party or building their base. >> yeah, but it's fair to say as you pointed out, both parties are imp indicated in this, "washington post" abc poll that was released last week shows that hispanic voers are not happy about the border crisis. 54% disapprove, 40% approve. the dhs had in its possession last summer, given where
