and, of course, we've added the martin luther king memorial as well. another memorial less known is the african-american civil war memorial dedicated in 1998, which is in the shaw neighborhood. but you can see what's happening is the monuments are proving not case of ugh in the civil rights, based on the remembrance of civil war, we're seeing that our memory of the civil war is no longer simply the preservation of the union as enshrined on the mall and the actual battle scenes but instead civil right movement adopted the lincoln memorial and once it took on this new level, we also had the call for additional monuments as civil rights becomes a more important theme and now shoals up throughout the city. and so when we look at our commemorations, we're seeing both the original and we're seeing a growing desire, a growing need to supplement the original story as told in 198 -- 1902 by adding appreciations and commemorations of those who were an integral part but were not figured, were not pictured, were not part of the commemorative landscape. we've also

the civil rights movement you think that they pass the civil rights laws on their own martin luther king went to see john kennedy and kennedy he left the white house and he said kennedy didn't care. he was really upset about it. what happened over time because of king and some of the people i mentioned people began to see we needed justice. the pressure came from the bottom up. the marches, the gassing the dog biting the jailing it did not square with us. we wanted justice. and the politicians ultimately after a decade long struggle began to pass the laws. women suffrage. >> do you think the guys wanted to give you your power they didn't. you think about how long it took for women to get the right to vote. if you are an african-american and you have to wait even longer to get the right to vote because you weren't favored. we demanded it from the bottom up. i'm convinced that if we have not have the protest on our college campuses we would still be in vietnam today. they would have some reason as to why we would still be there. they got ended by the students and the adults that finally sa

and martin luther king knew this. once again, there is documentary evidence if you look at king's writings, you'll find an early one. he wrote it in high school called the negro and the constitution. in which he prefigures a lot of what he says in the i have a dream speech but he talks about reconstruction. not the declaration, not the founder's constitution. he switches at some point. he switches the focus of his rhetoric. why does he do this? well, as i've suggested before, it's strategic. right? is it the declaration is something that all americans subscribe to. of the call to live up to the declaration means something to everyone. the call to live up to the reconstruction amendments, well not so much. in 1963, even now, reconstruction is divisive. and can you see this, i think, by asking yourself a simple question. who won the civil war? most people will say the north. i think maybe they say that even more consistently if they're from the south. that is clearly not right answer. the north is not even fighting in th

there is a promissory note that the nation is dishonoring in --3 that it is not the martin luther king knew this. there is documentary evidence if you look at king's writings you will find an early one. he wrote it in high school in which he prefigures a lot of what he says in the i have a dream speech but he talks about reconstruction, not the declaration, not the founders constitution. heswitches at some point, switches the focus of his rhetoric. why does he do this? it is a strategic. the declaration is something all americans subscribe to, the call to live up to the declaration means something to everyone. thecall to live up to reconstruction amendments, not so much. reconstruction is divisive and you can see this by asking yourself a simple question -- who won the civil war? north.ople will say the i think they say that may be more consistently if they are from the south. [laughter] prof. roosevelt: that is clearly not the right answer because the north was not fighting in the civil war. from one perspective it is a war between two nations -- the u.s.a . into the confederate state

in 1963, martin luther king makes his i have a dream speech. it starts by echoing the gettysburg address rhetorically. it is given from the steps of the lincoln memorial and king starts out by saying "five score years ago. " lincoln's counting back to the declaration but king is counting back to the emancipation proclamation. then he goes back farther. he talks about the architects of our republic. the people who read the constitution and the declaration of independence. they promised, he said, that all men would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. well, both lincoln and king are wrong. i have said both lincoln and king are wrong about this. as i've said already the declaration do not have the values that link win and king are trying to put their. the mistake is a little bit more severe even than that. think about it, for a second in the civil war, whose side is the declaration on. the answer is pretty clear it is side of the rebels who marched on washington and 63? the civil rights movement did i

you should, some of you have probably heard martin luther king's riverside drive speech . in which he comes out against the vietnam war. that and many of king's other speeches were written by my mentor and friend and teacher vincent harding so vincent was somebody who was very close to me. it really helped me understand. it was an eminent black historian and a teacher of people like henry louis gates at harvard. i have a wonderful opportunity to be a student of his when i took time off from wesleyan university to go to the king center at atlanta and i help because we took over some buildings at wesley and, ended up getting money out of the university to help set up the first part of the martin luther king jr. center which was an educational center of the institute for the black world . vincent was there and another wonderful person was there, very formative to my character was levon bennett, eminent historian. wrote before the mayflower, the shaping of black america and was an editor for ebony magazine back in the days when avenue was publishing some of these wonderful inf

president, your crowd size is as big as martin luther king's crowd size back in 1963. you just -- where does it come from? and at this stage i think we should be less concerned about that and more concerned about whether or not we are stemming the tide of deaths and infection rates in this country and that the leadership of the governors right now more than anything else matters, particularly as some governors are moving to open up their states. if the folks in georgia don't think that some fella out of north carolina or some of other part of the region comes into their back yard carrying that virus is not a risk to them, get ready. because that's going to be a new reality for them in 14 days. >> on that note our thanks to our friends. peter baker, ashley parker, michael steele, for helping us kick off the broadcast tonight. coming up for us an e.r. doc who helped keep ebola from spreading in this country says testing is just one of the things we've got to master. he'll tell us about the others. >>> and later, michael moore on the chaos management he sees in washington

certainly african americans did that under the leadership of martin luther king during the civil rightsent. nobody said it was their fault. but they took -- he encouraged to take responsibility to fight for change. >> yeah. but he also encouraged them to stand up and to march and to good out there and call out those very specific things that were oppressive against their community. and in this particular case, he will say that to support i thin the spirit and letter of what people who celebrate martin luther king have done, it's important for us not just to call out racism when it occurs to us, but when it occurs to other people as well. that's the best way of proving. >> a collective solution is standing up together. i want to turn to cynthia che, chinese for affirmative action. your organization has been fighting for equal opportunity for chinese americans for some 50 years. which approach is most effective, when you look at the history of chinese americans here, to sort of be mad and stand up and fight, or is it to be helpful, put our heads down and work? >> well, one of the reasons

martin luther king was not obama. gloria steinem was not a boomer. a lot of the things boomers take credit for like peace and love, they didn't start that. they just kind of enjoyed it.

[laughing] >> but one thing that boomers really threw themselves wholeheartedly enters raising your kids and the truly intense and sort of intentional way. so that's why, like the word parenting it and even really a thing until the late '80s and '90s. all of this idea, all these ideas about enrichment and your kid has to have piano lessons and they have to -- this number of words before they are three and that you like go through 1000 books or they will be a literate. all those things are part of the boomer preoccupation with parroting. if a look of the culture of the time, it's like parenthood, three men at a baby, mrs. doubtfire, the genes that they were were called mom jeans. they were really into being parents, and so they raised these kids that were super, it's what people think of millennials as snowflakes sometimes becaus

the first one we have is from president kennedy's proclamation that in light of martin luther king's march on washington that it's time for the nation, a century after the american pharoah -- american civil war, to fulfill its promise. as you can see, he is a strong supporter of that. he shows kennedy on top of the white house proudly waving his proclamation as if it were a banner rather than a speech. the next drawing is very famous. it is something a cartoonist can do and a newspaper reporter cannot. the united states has really strong libel laws. woodward and bernstein had to spend months and find a source to link nixon to the watergate break-in. mr. bloch true footsteps leading directly to the white house. other scandals were originated. it is careful not to draw nixon. this cartoon said you are not really going to run that by you. when he said yes, she went ok. she was prepared for the call she was going to get the next morning when that paper landed on people's front porches. involved in treating negotiations. if you know your constitution you know it's not the president who ge

what happened after martin luther king was assassinated, i could smell the smoke, and once in awhile i would be playing baseball, and you could see the black smoke and you could almost see the flames. if you ever went down madison avenue, which i didn't too many times, but his house was there, the housing projects, there was civil unrest going on. i personally, not to ramble here, i was radicalized when i was like ten. i was arrested 26 times before i was 17 years old. we were used to credit civil unrest during the war. and a lot of these things fester and there are people who are naive out there that may think this guy was after killing babies and all that. that is only my opinion, that's what i got. >> neil, thank you for the call. >> any response kerri watkins? >> i'm a big proponent of the first amendment and the right to attemptable, but you to do it civilly. constitutional rights are important, and your duty as a citizen to do that with suspere to the laws in place. one of the things we teach here is about service, honor, and kindness. we want people to step up and be kind and
