and of course, across the bay area, people also celebrated doctor martin luther king jr, including in oakland, where several gatherings were held to remember king's legacy. nbc bay area velena jones is in oakland for us. from a day of service to a day of action, community members across oakland are remembering doctor martin luther king's legacy. it's so important that we honor doctor martin luther king jr. and those that stood beside him to really recognize their work and to take what they've done, to take what they've done and take it to the next level. volunteers at higher ground development organized several cleanups and beautification projects, including one at brookfield elementary. this is the group's 14th year working to enhance east oakland communities. what you see here used to be concrete, sunken in four feet of water. kids would play in it and we realized it was not safe. so over the years, it turned into a trickle effect, bringing both neighborhoods to brown and brookfield together, keeping the environment in mind. volunteers with california climate action spent the day wo

they felt strongly that today was about martin luther king jr. and they felt that having the inauguration today kind of diluted the celebration of doctor king. and i spoke with one woman who was 75 years old, and she said that she was on the celebration train as a form of protest against the inauguration. all right, marianne, thank you for that preview. i know we're going to be seeing your full report later on this evening. looking forward to it. thank you. the norcal mlk foundation and the san francisco labor council paid tribute to the civil rights leader today as well, with a labor and community breakfast. community leaders gathered at the intercontinental hotel in san francisco to mark the holiday and stand together in the ongoing fight for civil rights and workers rights. doctor martin luther king felt very strongly about the community and labor. he also felt that they could one could succeed without the other. and we must make sure that our bonds with the community and labor grows stronger than they've ever been before. every year, the event

happy martin luther king day.t is a great day for a lot of people, but there is a lot of different comments and a lot of vitriol coming from other lines. to address a comment about separation of church and state, i want to remind everyone, separation of church and state was put into protect the church and the people to make them able to freely praise and worship who they choose. to protect them from the government, that's what that's for. otherwise, i am very excited to see the department of government efficiency. the money spent in this country is out of control. it needs to be fixed. donald trump and the people he is putting in his cabinets are the only people to people of doing that. take a look outside, you do not have to watching the news every day, you do not have to let them tell you what to think. go outside and touch some grass. host: members of the president's hopeful cabinet, once they get confirmations, making their way into the ceremony as well. vivek ramaswamy and others, getting their seats. kevin h

tomorrow is martin luther king jr., day. one of the civil rights movement's most influential leaders. as the nation considers how close it is to achieving dr. king's dream, let's turn back to 1967 when he shared his hopes for solving a racial divide right here on "meet the press." >> dr. king, do you believe that the american racial problem can be solved? >> yes, i do. i refuse to give up. i refuse to despair in this moment. i refuse to allow myself to fall into the dark chambers of pessimism because i think in any social revolution the one thing that keeps it going is hope, and when the hope dies somehow the revolution degenerates into a kind of annihlstiic, and i believe that the forces of good will, white and black in this country, can work together to bring about a resolution of this problem. >> when we come back, our "meet >> when we come back, our "meet if you have heart failure or chronic kidney disease, farxiga can help you keep living life, because there are places you'd like to be.

it's an appropriate state to go to celebrate martin luther king jr. you see this in the pardons that he's issuing. these are tend to be these are pardons that have some personal resonance with him. you know, the sense i got in the interview i did with him in the oval office was that he wasn't ready to leave. of course, we know he didn't want to leave. he wanted to run. he wanted to win. he ended up doing neither of those things. and he's you know, i actually i did the last print interview with george w bush when he left the white house. he was a guy ready to go home. he was ready to move out of the white house. you do not get that sense with president joe biden. he is a guy who wants to stay and i think wants to continue to speak out on the issues that matter most to him. >> you know, susan is someone who's also interviewed president biden twice. that man loves that job. susan page, jon meacham, thank you both very much for coming to the sunday show. and coming up, president biden spent the final full day of his presidency in south carolina, the state

trump's inauguration will happen on the same day as the holiday celebrating the reverend doctor martin luther king to imagine how different that coincidence would feel if we were watching the first black woman president take the oath of office on king day. kamala harris came really close. she flourished as vice president and then went from loyal number two to top of the ticket. harris triumphed in the only presidential debate and raised more than $1 billion. yet for a host of reasons, she lost. but i must shine a spotlight on one of them. harris's mother, who immigrated from india, understood a lamentable truth about america that her adopted homeland would see kamala and her sister maya as black girls, so she raised them to be, quote, proud black women. i'm sure her mother delivered the same mantra mine delivered to me growing up. you have to work twice as hard to be considered just as good as anyone white. there's no room for error because the benefit of the doubt is not ours to have. so harris worked twice as hard, and she had to play by rule set, and constantly shifted by those trying to blunt

the kind fund does have a personal linkage to martin luther king. of mine who was a dear friend of doctor king, it was doctor king's friend, nba legend bill russell, who inspired the work i do in africa that so many of you have generously supported through your contributions. i got to call bill russell a friend and accompanied him to the white house when president obama gave him the presidential medal of freedom, thanks entirely to my long friendship with his daughter, karen russell, who bill russell always introduced as my daughter the harvard law school graduate. bill wasn't saying that to boast the way some parents might. he said it to honor the road, the russell family traveled to harvard law school, beginning with bill russell's grandfather, who was not allowed to spend one day of his life in school because there was no school for black children. then in monroe, louisiana, and bill's father, who only made it to sixth grade but watched his son bill graduate from college and become an nba champion. and so when bill russell told you that his daught

liz: kongman, it's interesting that president trump was inaugurated on martin luther king day and martinr. said it's about the content of our character, not the color of our skin. >> that's right. liz: rutgers university found dei is poisonous and divisive and fake perceptions of racism does not exist and you have that and they have target and target, the company just got rid of dei policies and what do you make of this? the senate will take up the vote for pete hegseth as pentagon chief. where is that heading? >> well, look, pete is the most qualified for this job right now. he's exactly what the president thinks he needs in order to drive the agenda forward and focused on war fighter efforts and not on big defense industry. remember, the people trying to vote against him like colins and murkowski approved the waiver for lloyd austin coming off the defense industry board and the same ones that approved him to go forward, which led to the botched afghan withdraw. and so the fact that they're trying to say they won't vote for pete hegseth, i encourage every american to stand up, make a ca
