i think the killing of aragon a in new york and michael brown by police there's the slogan the hashtag that laughing matter literally started at 3 very young women the night that we saw the. acquittal of george zimmerman for killing trayvon martin in sanford florida so it started there but unlike the obama administration trump has not responded them the bombing ministration came in and had federal investigations federal involvement and advocated against it even the president himself barack obama address trayvon martin said there could have been me at one point he said he could have been my son trump has denied that any of the. these issues events episodes were racist that there was any systemic racism still present and with drew in the justice department from things like consent to creese which is when the federal government says that police departments would have a pattern of inequality unfairness harassment or killings could no longer operate on their own that they must be under the supervision of the justice department from suspended a trance suspended lawsuits by the obama administ

the front lines of that from the beginning as well as the ferguson killing in ferguson missouri michael brown and aragon all of that have been doing the obama era what i'm saying is that we could do even more and i think that that's what i challenge us that we should never even modify what we do and i think we were very active but i think we could. and been more active while everyone knows you did you did a lot because we had we had one of the top trumps pastas a guy called darrell scott he said that trump has been the most pro black president ever and of course he reminded us how black lies might have began under the a bamma presidency when those horrific police killings across the world on t.v. screens. the killing of aragon a in new york and michael brown by police there's the slogan the hashtag that laughing matter literally started but 3 very young women the night that we saw the . acquittal of george zimmerman for killing trayvon martin in sanford florida so it started there but unlike the obama administration trump has not responded them the bomb administration came in and had federal

the body of michael brown lying in the street for four hours and his mom not able to go to him.have this black man in the white house trying to figure out what to say. >> tensions are boiling over in the st. louis suburb of ferguson, missouri -- >> you were seeing black americans saying, there's something happening here. and we are demanding better. >> i've said this before. in too many countries around the country a gulf of mistrust exists between local residents and law enforcement. >> obama may have been a bit tone deaf. >> there are young black men that commit crime. >> he said there are some black people who do commit crimes and if they do they must be held to account. right after mike brown? right after the disconsolation that black people feel in the face of the fact that police people seem to be out of control and kill black people without legal redress. >> while i understand the passions and the anger that arise over the death of michael brown, giving in to that anger by looting or carrying guns and even attacking the police only serves to raise tensions and stir chaos.

it was after michael brown was murdered. know, i was working as a nurse at the time. i was-- i'm clergy, you know, so i felt i could go to the streets and just, you know, be a medic and pray with people. and during the protests. but as i was out there and i'm just seeing the devastation in my own community, i just couldn't-- you know, i couldn't sit any longer. and so i just had to step up. i was asked to step up by the community, and i did. but the thing is, when i-- what really made me say yes was the idea that my own son, who was 14 at the time, could be the next hash tag, that my daughter to be a hash tag oh, that another loved one. and that was too much to bear, not when i know i could lend my mouth, my feet, and my hands to it. >> stephen: when you went down to washington for your first orientation, you-- you wore a breonna taylor mask when you were down there. and i understand that there was a reaction by some of the legislators who were already there to your mask, that you did not expect. share with the audience what

on the executive branch along with jay michael brown. the top appointed official. we had the speaker -- we had speaker osborne. as well.tice john m., i want to thank all these individuals. this is putting any and all politics aside and setting the right example for the people of kentucky that these are safe. there is no divide between any of us. the science is there. this is a miracle. this is michelle, who is a nurse at the frankfurt health department. she's been incredible. throughout this pandemic. it's been a friendship. vaccine everyone else a and then was vaccinated herself. about 7000 people in the commonwealth were vaccinated before we were. it was pursuant to the direct request made over the phone to me and other governors by the head of the cdc, dr. redfield. best tone our follow cdc guidance the entire time. he told us it would help build confidence. he wanted is done -- he wanted it done as early as possible. i feel absolutely fine. there's just a little bit of soreness in my arm. less than the flu shot. report six or seven hours after it that all is we

with all due respect mr president let's talk about losing people well most michael brown june at last briana tayla we are losing our loved ones to police violence it's not a slogan it's a mandate for keeping our people alive the farm the police the party's radical elements were definitely helpful to the elites when they had a common enemy but now former allies are turning on one another for 2 weeks liberal activists in los angeles have been protesting a potential biden and ministration appointment it's the city's democratic mayor and he's less than popular with black lives matter it's a damn shame sound one has felt the heiress of transportation and house listeners and now they think of putting him on a national level to be in charge of any of that liberal activists across the u.s. are sending a clear message to the democratic leadership don't forget who put you in power but say they don't get what they want out of a biden presidency perhaps they'll take the same direct action that we're still seeing at the close of a trump presidency well what could that mean for the future of the de

want to know if this moment feels different to you than it did in the wakede of the fergusoh of michael brown. and if you feel that something is cnged in terms of how the country has responded to that death. that i'm extremely hopeful a lot of that has to do with my maturation and having twins now and a 15-year-old daughter and wanting to have a better america for them than the one we have currently. and so that's where my hope resides. however, we've been here before, margaret. we, in 1955, with the death of emmett till, the country stopped and mourned and saw what racism and bigotry had done to this young bck boy in mississippi. we saw it on the edmund pettus bridge, when we had the dogs and we had the water hoses that were used again people like john lewis when they were marching for freedom in selma. we saw it, a moment like this, just recently,go five yearsn charleston, after the death of my good friend clementa pinckney and eight others. again, and where the country, the world is watching. however, my fear is that we'll miss this moment. we've missed that moment before. and my feais tha

shelby is a senior fellow at hoover institution and documentary what killed michael brown.nks for coming on. >> thanks for having me. >> what do you think at a time when americans don't trust each other what do you think a policy like this has on the country? >> i think it has a terrible effect. what were policies like this basically where you are using racism in order to somehow cure or repair the damage done by historical racism. so it's the same precise sin being used over and over again and it begins to corrode the values and principles that made america strong as time goes on. it breaks our faith with our principles. >> so you're saying you cannot? >> it can be corrupted by race. >> you can't repair the damage done by historic race and committing new acts of racism? >> that's right. it's a futility, even on its face. but again, it's like any -- the bad racial habit that we have in america and have always had in one form or another is to picke pick up race and use it as a means to power. it has no other function whatsoever. you can't work hard and become a race. it is s

we lost michael brown jr. and we lost breonna taylor. we losing our loved ones to police violence.ing about it. >> that's right, brianna, because talking to democratic strategists and republican strategists about this, republicans thought this was their most effective attack on those members of congress who ended up winning this year. it became a huge issue to fund the police because it doesn't sound like there is a lot of gray area in that slogan, even though many of the republican attacks on democrats were false and democrats had positions that were more in the middle saying, when you think about police reform this ended up being really effective for republicans. i think that part of what is at issue here, it's still a live issue in the georgia runoff race. we'll probably hear about it in the debate between senator loeffler and reverend warnock. she said how the call to defund the police would put atlanta at risk where there is a rising murder rate. this is something democrats have to think through the language really carefully and that's the point the president was making, was t

senior fellow at the hoover institution and writer of the documentary "what killed michael brown."ou so much for coming on. >> think of for having me. >> tucker: what you think, at a time when americans really don't trust each other, what do you think the effect of articulating policies like this out loud has on a the country. >> i think it has a terrible effect. i mean, policies like this are basically where you are using racism in order to somehow cure or repair the damage done by historical racism. and so it is the same, precise sin being used over and over again. and it begins to corrode. the values and principles that made america strong as time goes on, it breaks our faith with our principles. >> tucker: so you are saying that you cannot >> they can be corrupted by race. >> tucker: you can't repair the damage done by historical racism by committing new acts of racism. >> that is right. it is a futility, even on its face. but again, it's like -- the bad racial habit that we have in america is -- and have always had -- in one form or another, is to pick a brace and use it as a

. >> michael brown. >> eric garner's death at the hands of a new york police officer. >> a cop did wronge." >> what do we want? >> justice. >> when do we want it? >> now! >> the road ahead is not going to be easy. it never is, especially for folks like you and me. >> after the 2012 election, the kind of caution that really defined the obamas during the first administration, some of that goes by the wayside. >> no matter how far you rise in life, how hard you work to be a good person, a good parent, a good citizen, for some folks, it will never be enough. >> and we see a michelle obama that is less coy about race. >> it can make you feel like your life somehow doesn't matter. and those feelings are playing out in communities like baltimore and ferguson and so many others across this country. >> you can say it would have been a massive opportunity to really say something transformative, but at the same time, she's still operating within the boundaries of the white house. >> black lives matter! >> today i want to be very clear that those feelings are not an excuse just throw up our hands an

in places like ferguson, missouri, which, as you know, erupted in violence after the death of michael brown. my question is this, i wonder if the biden government will offer the same protection to police officers when they are under violent attack while trying to keep the peace during anti-police protests, like they were here in new york city. literally being violently attacked, which is the exact reason these thugs here in new york city, teenagers, that was okay to attack a car for absolutely no reason, because the cops had literally been stripped of their power, and they think, "there's no deterrent, i'm going to do whatever the hell i want." >> kat: joe biden is going to do whatever he thinks is politically popular, because that's what he's done his entire career. in the '80s and the '90s he was leading the charge for locking people, nonviolent, imprisoned, disproportionately black men, because that was popular then. now we have a criminal justice guy, you hear in the leaked audio, "we should cool it on the defund the police stuff for now because georgia -- "so it that his only concern -

. >> martha: writer and producer of the documentary what killed michael brown. you for being here tonight. we'll go through your mind as you listen to him a few years ago? >> well, frankly, is the same sort of, there is cultural formula for power that is if you can establish black victimization, black suffering, then in a society that now feels guilty over america's past, then you have power. and he is looking for this power in black victimization, in white racism, whites as evil and racist. blacks as victims. now it is america's mission to redeem it. so, in a sense he is offering whites redemption if they will just vote for him. this was the formula, i think that had a good deal to do with the election of barack obama. it was an opportunity for white america to document their innocence of racism. i voted for a black man for president. i won't say that's the entire reason he was elected, but it contributed certainly to that. while this gentleman won, i think he is using the same cultural formula for power. by victimization as a way to manipulate, to squeeze rewa

for example, michael brown's killing in ferguson, missouri, she called that back in 2019, august of 2019obama's own department of justice found was not so. that he was not murdered. that circumstances involved with his killing did not go so far as to call what happened to him murder. >> no, you're absolutely right and those are facts. here is another fact. kamala harris supported the minnesota freedom fund which is a fund to provide bail money for people in minnesota when they're arrested so they can be back out on the streets again to commit more crimes. how much sense does that make? david: so will this involve nationalizing these policies that have so far just been rhetoric on the campaign trail? no oh, i would, i would think that that would be the case, david. if biden-harris end up in the white house expect more chaos and more senseless killings and lawlessness. people feel they can get away with this stuff. they feel many boldened to harm people, take what they want and not held accountable. david: what kills me, deneen, i've lived in new york city for decades. i've seen it go up a

susan: after michael brown's shooting, a task force was established in the obama administration to looklicing. let's listen to president obama talking about that task force. [video clip] >> we come to see the frustration in many communities of color and the feeling that our laws can be applied unevenly. after ferguson, i said we have to face these issues squarely. i convened a task force on community policing. in may, this task force, made up of police officers, activists and academics, proposed 59 recommendations. everything from how we can make better use of data and technology to help train police officers. dozens of police departments are now sharing more data with the public, including on citations, stops and searches and shootings involving law enforcement. the justice department has begun pilot programs to help police use body cameras and collect data on the use of force. this fall, the department will award more than $162 million in grants to support law enforcement and community organizations working to improve policing. susan: what came of that effort? sarah: that was 2015, an

fighting on the ground for more than 400 days with so many other people who never before that day michael brownas killed, who never before stepped foot to a protest. we are talking about people who put themselves out there and who were looking for leadership. we were hoping that president obama would come to ferguson. we hoping. it's six years later and we are still -- >> as a quick follow-up. do you think that president-elect biden, what should he do legislatively? should he visit around the country? administratively what can he do on police reform? >> first i think that putting together this task force that i electe he has -- our v.p. kamala harris spoke about put together a task force on police and bring people to the table that are in communities doing the work not just people connected to organizations. not just the people who have the name because they have been out. they are known for doing this particular work because they have the leg up because of who they know and all that. but what about the people -- there is not one ferguson activist who has been brought to the table on these call

seeing it get full bodies in the killing of michael brown and then george floyd.e controversy racial democrat grati democrat -- demogration started to swell. thinking about the who actual allies are. a story i heard from a ferguson activist, a nurse, a minister, finally elected to congress. goes to washington, has a breonna taylor face mask on and some think her maim is breonna taylor. >> wow. >> what does that say? when a colleague in congress would see a black woman in the halls of congress and this her name is breonna taylor? you wouldn't actually trip over the name of breonna taylor? what did that say about the border movement and allies perhaps in congress? think about the progress made over the obama years. we had the push for consent degrees. ap tool to hold police departments accountable. and jeff sessions literally last move out the door, blow up the entire process. while there needs to be change on the state level, and certainly support from congress, president joe biden could by executive order reinforce with a memo the consent to due process. but to se

we lost michael brown junior, breonna taylor and losing loved ones to police violence.ng our people alive. defund the police. she says it is not a slogan but a mandate. if i could ask you final thoughts and expand on what you were about to say. you spent so much time in the middle of that growing call to defund the police in communities across america. and you saw firsthand the impact that that has on our police force and their ability to do their jobs when they see and hear that. >> yeah. so i've had this interesting position here at fox news. i'm going out there having these conversations. i have my own experience as a black man. i've seen abuses of the state. but i've also seen where kids have been shot in these neighborhoods that they need the police in the neighborhoods to keep the community safe. and it is an interesting balance. if you would ask me ilhan omar makes the point that communities need more money. that's a tax issue. that's a matter of local politics of saying that citizens should keep more of their money. but if you are asking me to get rid of anti-cr

we lost michael brown junior, breonna taylor, we're losing our loved ones to police violence.ce says incoming congressman corey bush. more from that same obama interview. listen. >> the key is deciding do you want to actually get something done or do you want to feel good among the people you already agree with? if you want to get something done in a democracy, in a country as big and diverse as ours, you have to be able to meet people where they are and play a game of addition, not subtraction. >> sandra: very interesting, josh, to see where it goes next? >> the key word that president obama said was democracy. he knows the polling and seen the data. very few americans support the type of policies the type of rhetoric that folks like omar and corey bush are talking about. if you can't persuade a majority of voters to your position and more of a backlash i would argue in recent months you are not going to get anything you want passed through congress or accomplished in local governments. so not only is it politically toxic or democrats but these types of arguments and the real

there was a lot of anger expressed about the michael brown situation. he was still laying there. as it came out casually. it was a lot for me going through this experience. i have to say. >> vice president taylor: i will open up to other commissioners to have a chance to talk to you. >> commissioner hamasaki: thank you. i want to echo commissioner taylor's words and i want to thank you for appearing tonight and to express -- it's clear this is very emotional for you. you didn't ask to be -- i know you made that very clear. you didn't ask to be in this position. you didn't ask to be the spokesperson for this. you didn't ask for this e-mail to be released. end up in the media and have all of the negative consequences of that. i'm very sorry that you had to go through all of that. perhaps, out of that, it's sparking a necessary dialogue. the culture and historical context of white supremacy that arose along with policing, i don't think it's something that we can take eight hours of implicit bias training and make it go away. it's interesting because when this came out back when i ha
