the united states on the same day of remembrance, to honor the life and legacy of doctor martin luther king, jr. in my capacity as president of the national action network, i will lead a rally in washington, dc tomorrow to affirm the dream of doctor king. and you all have been all over the country with the dream institute and the beloved community. so i want to ask you, as my first question to both of you is, can you speak to the contrast between trump's inauguration falling on the holiday of doctor martin luther king? first, you, martin, as his oldest living child and bearer of the legacy, and you, andrea, who has come in the spirit of coretta and has really championed the beloved community concept. >> so, rev, thank you for the opportunity. >> and when we think about the comparing and contrasting, you know, dad was about building coalitions, was about lifting people up. you know, if we go on the past of what president elect right now trump has done, it really has been creating a lot of division. we have to challenge him, though, to really do what he said he was going to do, which is represent

trump's inauguration will happen on the same day as the holiday celebrating the reverend doctor martin luther king jr's easy 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

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

we condemned martin luther king jr. as a communist and somebody that was trying to overthrow us, change the basic structure of the government, of the u.s. government. for a hundred years, we had illegal discrimination against black people. from 1865 almost to 1965 it was a combined commitment of churches and in the u.s. congress the u.s. supreme court. they all said it is ok to discriminate against african-americans and considered whites superior. that was a major accomplishment for him and those heroes in the civil rights movement. georgia was one of the few southern states that did not oppose the change in -- the change in integration after the supreme court ruled they could not be separate but equal. in some cases, the u.s. had to send troops to get states to comply. and recently, with the lgbt legislation passed by the legislator and the governor vetoed. now we distinguish against north carolina who in the past has been quite enlightened on civil rights. but it shows we have another battle to fight after the race is
