like martin king-- "i will love my way through this darkness by promoting justice not revenge." that's a great legacy of black people that we see brown people trying to do the same thing in arizona in the face of america turning away. now, we have made great progress. barack obama is one example of that. but he's caught in the middle. brother dyson is right about this. he has a p.r. operation on the one hand; not wanting to engage in the other. i would say to my dear brother barack obama, if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. >> schieffer: i want to get back to this case, but before we go too far here, i want to get into this controversy over the administration's decision to drop most of the charges against this fringe group called the new black panther party. the charge is that they intimidated voters in philadelphia. it all got back in the news a couple of weeks ago when a bush appointee to the justice department, jake christian adams, said he had resigned because of the obama administration's reluctance to press charges against african- americans on thes

martin luther king went to the playboy mansion?rry: some say, yes, hef, you supported blacks but you set back the women's movement. >> well, it takes a very curious attitude toward playboy to come up with that conclusion. in other words, the notion that our sexuality, the fact that we're attracted to the opposite sex, that there are two sexes on the planet, is a blessing. and it's something that we ought to celebrate. the fact that there are hangups related to it is reflective of the fact that we are and still remain, essentially, a pure tan people. >> you don't think playboy made women objects rather than equals? >> i think that women in the best sense, and not in an negative sense, are objects of desire. that is a celebration of one's own sexuality and the fact that we are two sexes. and what playboy tried to the, quite frankly is to elevate it to another kind of level, you know, that did celebrate that. and prior to playboy, there were a lot of connections with sexuality in magazineless but they were connected to sin and sensati

martin luther king said don't ever let somebody bring you down so low that you will hate them. we can't afford hate. the only pattern that heals the body is forgiveness and love. it's what? does that not take us into the spiritual realm? because, is forgiveness not that part of us that could connect to the de ivine? i am speaking to you as a psychologist and a scientist. i am telling you forgiveness is good for your heart. it is good for your body. it is good for your mind. because positive thoughts are powerful thoughts. positive thoughts are what? powerful. can you see why? can you see why? if i have a positive thought, i can see possibility. if i can see possibility, what will happen to my vision for life, the contribution i could make? how many of you want your life to have more blessings to count? you know you want it. you must love your body. heal those emotions and resentment using forgiveness. and you have to use love. i invite you every day to repeat these patterns. i love my body, every scel -- cell is getting healthier and healthier. i fill myself with love and forgi

i love martin luther king, but also malcolm x, sometimes you have to really hold your ground.ompassion, kindness, education. rather than more killing. >> when you graduated in 1965, it was the height of the civil- rights movement. you just alluded to the environment that you were growing up in. as a young musician, what was it like for you in san francisco at the time? >> it was heaven on earth. we would go down to the fillmore and see these great band, the doors, and jimi hendrix, cream, and then go down to the grove to see other music. you could go to the mission district to hear mexican. everywhere i went there was this multi dimensional color and i felt like it was on necessary for me to do just one. like baskin-robbins, i want all the flavors. you cannot just be a mexican play music. there is a lot of beauty in that, but it was not for me. i was born without arms around my heart that wants to embrace everything. palestine's, israelis. japanese, apaches. i am more concentrated with life and love than flags, nationality, religion. that stuff gets in the way. one gets in the

that headline, in my opinion, was instrumental in catching martin luther king's eye and making him decidee. >> by the time the civil rights movement got in full motion, the mainstream media were beginning to cover it. television showed those dogs and the fire hoses and "bull" connor and the people who were the arch emblems of segregation abusing protesters, and so that was very vivid. >> narrator: subscriptions to the pittsburgh courier dropped form 280,000 in 1950 to just 100,000 in 1960. advertising revenue alone could not cover the courier's rising cost. >> there was a black page in the morning paper, and it had pictures of black people and some of their activities and that sort of thing. they run one page or two pages, maybe a little more on sunday, and so you could get in the daily press what only, up to that time, the black press would provide. but it was--superficially, it was pretty satisfactory, and therefore, people began to say, "well, i don't need these two newspapers. i can--i don't need the pittsburgh courier anymore. i can just read the daily whatever." >> narrator: the end

martin luther king actually went to the "playboy" -- >> not the club, the mansion. >> jimmy: the mansionyou hung around with, i mean, this is -- i mean, some of the great name -- miles davis and sammy davis jr. and other people named davis. a lot of davises in your life. >> yes, a lot. >> jimmy: and you were -- you were arrested, which i did not know. >> yes. >> jimmy: unfairly arrested. >> yes, well -- they had arrested lenny bruce for his act, quite literally, took him off the stage, and i objected to that in the magazine and suggested some things that were going on at chicago at the time and they arrested me. >> jimmy: and they arrested you -- >> they said it was because of a pictorial that we did on jane mansfield -- >> jimmy: you knew what the real reason was. and they tried to stack the jury somewhat. >> that's true. >> jimmy: and still you wound up with a hung jury. everything i say to you seems dirty. stacked, hung. >> that's the way it is. >> jimmy: and here we are now. >> and having so much fun in the process. >> jimmy: you have having fun. but i'm worried about the fact that y

martin luther king.e was incarcerated and then went on to become the leader of the civil rights movement. granted, before he was arrested, he was already the leader. but there's a comparison to be made there. not a good one, but a comparison. lindsay is in the same jail that paris hilton was in. it's the coolest jail there is. it's like, there's a line down the block, around to get in. i'm -- well, actually, i'm hoping to get my daughter into that jail. but -- because of the overcrowding, lindsay will probably only serve a quarter of her sentence. though they do take good behavior into consideration. so, she could be in there for a couple of years or something. all i know is that she's safer in there than she is with her father and/or mother. cameras and reporters from almost every news organization in the country were there. and none of them seemed embarrassed to have been there. our old friend jake byrd was on the scene now. if you're not familiar with jake, he's on the show from time to time. he's a m

to paraphrase on martin luther king day, the middle east conflict between us and the neighbors is a -the arc of the conflict between us and the middle east neighbors is a long one but it bent toward reconciliation, very slowly but in a direction, and we should not let the opportunity slip out of our hands. but there is an opportunity now. >> charlie: opportunity retire for direct talks with president abbas and prime minister fayyad. >> they have to reach their own -- >> charlie: and you are ok if they reach their own agreement. if the palestinians come to you and say "we have reconciliationed with hamas, you're fine with that? >> it's not that simple, but basically we do not pretend to be able to negotiate the relationship between hamas and the p.a., we feel that the authentic, legitimate representative of the palestinian people is the p.a. and the fatah movement. if we try to meddle, this issue will end up somehow making it worse. i don't think it's our role. they're basically two branches of the same national movement, hamas and fatah, and we prefer, i think, that every normal leade

[applause] and, i want to thank the martin luther king male chorus. break from all these politicians talking up here. [applause] i want to say first that i come here to speak for two members my family. hillary wanted to be here today and she paid her respects to senator byrd as he lay in state in the united states senate before making a trip on behalf of our country to central and eastern europe. i am grateful to bob byrd for many things, but one thing that no one has given enough attention to in my opinion today is that while he always wanted to be the best senator, and he always wanted to be the longest-serving senator, he wanted every other senator to be the best senator that he or she could be and he helped hillary a lot when she came to represent the people of new york. i am forever grateful for that. [applause] now, everybody else has canonizing senator byrd. i would like to humanize him a little bit. because i think it makes it more interesting and makes his service all the more important much. first of alll mt people had to go all the way to w

it is my deepest believe, as martin luther king, jr. if you had to sum up the career and life and legacy of the one person that influenced me, with all due respect to other influences, more than any other person i have ever met, known, and worked with. on the question is how do you get the peace? it seems more clear to me a that you cannot get to peace without a full employment plan, without justice, which includes economic and political justice, and then you can inch toward peace. funny, in these several thousand years, we are still struggling toward that objective. and so, it can be said that a military presence and force is sometimes still required. now, as a legislator, privileged among the 535 men and women in a nation of 350 people to be a part of making laws and guiding the destiny of what i think is unquestionably the greatest government and nation in recorded history, in terms of accomplishments and power, we are in a peculiar and challenging situation. how do we make sure that there were not only no more koreas, , and anyre vi
