you are running against a former head of the naacp. how did you win that election? gov.: my approval was very high, 78% of the people in maryland approved of the job i was doing. in spite of that they were not going to vote for me. i was dealing with the blowback from president trump, who had a 28% approval rating. some people were holding it against me. we ran a campaign to say i'm different from donald trump and you cannot punish me because of my party affiliation. look at the things we have done and accomplished together. maryland has the highest percentage of black voters in any stay outside of the south and i am running against a former leader of the naacp and we start -- we won in a landslide in a very blue year. david: you have said recently the virus that is coming back, covid-19, is coming back in a more berland state and it was before. what is the state in maryland? are you talking to other governors who say they may not have enough ppe or hospital beds? gov. hogan: this is something we have been dealing with for nine months now. as much as we would like to get

joining me now naacp president and ceo derrick johnson. very good to see you again.ng us today. an important day, but i guess the question is how far is he going? is he going far enough? >> this is a great initial start. in fact, as i look back in history, this is the only president that has started it this early. even lyndon johnson only did so many in cases under a level of duress and public upheaval. this is a president that made a commitment during the campaign to follow up with that. we have been progressive to make sure it happened. the fact he's embedding this inside of domestic policy council shows the urgency and the gravity of what's taking place but in addition to that, racial equity is system-wide. it's not about one thing or function or set of policies. it's everything we do with african-americans, asians, latinos, we are tax-paying citizens and want ek witzable return on this country. >> what about the judicial system? there has been so much violence against blacks. and the court system, at least according to, you know, any statistic that you look at, t

with the naacp did is they made this flag, and they hung it over the headquarters in new york for 18ears. from 1920 to 1938. and they did it based off what you said was on the flag. a man was lynched, yesterday. and so the intent was to highlight that this is still going on in this country. and somewhere, there is a log, i cannot tell you how many days it flew, but every day after a man was lynched the naacp hung that flag over their headquarters. the key thing about that flag is, it is owned by the library of congress. it is not really something that we want to collect all of these items, because some items are one-of-a-kind. and, they gave that to us on loan, and when it comes off exhibition on july -- correction, june 14th. it is a textile. it will go into storage for another ten years. for those of us who are like me as a historian, or 80 students reading our books and we saw that flag as an image, it is actually here. that is with the flag represents. it goes along with the red summer. but african americans are doing, and their weight supporters. that is key about the exhibition

naacp has been talking about this for a while. this past summer we launched a campaign to get facebook to begin to address white supremmist groups and domestic terrorist. the president started to make people more emboldened. he started in charlottesville, virginia and now this act. >> fine people on both sides is what he said. in a statement as you heard, the former first lady michelle obama said this about the mob. the mob desecrated the center of american government and these rioters and gang members were let out of the building, not in handcuffs but free to carry on with their days. that was pretty shocking to so many of us. the message about racial justice. the message for racial justice activists shouldn't be surprised. were you surprised that these individuals were immediately arrested to be formally charged. they were simply told go home. nobody has been charged with anything. now a few other people were charged with gun possession. but northbound was charged with the looting that took place. let me say that again. the loot

so naacp, urban ling, national indians and you asked other organizations.ether are nine organizations. our presence in all 50 states in all territories and has presence and hundred different committees across the country including tribal communities. it's really going to those communities in providing the resources and say how do we as a country heal that? at the same time president-elect biden has really laid out a four-point plan of priorities around covid response and the economy related to covid as well as climates. but racial justice. this idea racial justice at the federal level. and how do we bring to bear in infrastructure, a whole of government and infrastructure developments. how do we also adjust that at the local level as well? i think those are the kinds of issues we have to be dealing with. it is not just a matter of the presidency. all of us really need to step up toju that. many of us have the network, coalition a partnership that we can do that kind of work as well. >> will just pivot from that a little bit but the whole issue of hate crime

the naacp wanted him to attend their 34th birthday celebrations. by january of 43, the navy had sent him back to active duty. so it was a brief soiree. if you look at the photographs taken at those events, it does look rather, it's not the heroes of iwo jima. it's not soldier field. smaller location, such as the great lakes training basin, where black recruits were now given the chance to do something a little more than just the mess men. it was fairly modest, but at the same time it was recognition. but it was recognition that said -- the try to do something more in terms of propaganda and image then in terms of substantive change. if that makes sense. >> absolutely. would you say for his actions at pearl harbor, was doris miller treated equally to white comrades, white brothers in arms at pearl harbor? i know there is been a major debate, a controversy, about whether doris miller should have received the medal of honor. >> no black serviceman received a medal of honor during the war. when they came, those came in the late 90s after retroactive in

the naacp had strong feelings about this issue. understand it, they supported a boycott of participating, but once it was decided they would send a delegation, they were supportive of the athletes, is that right? dr. thomas: that's right. athletes,s about young athletes, many of whom have trained their whole lives. can you share these stories. dr. green: yes, many were college students at the time. many college presidents supported a boycott of the games in 1935. one story that stands out is a named milton greene, a senior at harvard at the time, you see him running the 110-meter high hurdles. he had times that would have qualified for the olympics, and along with another jewish athlete name norman connors, here you see him, they meet with his family rabbi, a man named harry leavy at temple in boston, and the rabbi talks to these two men and said it would send a real strong message about fair play and standing up if you boycott the game, so they do boycott the games. they are two of the only american athletes who decide they will b

the black press, the naacp, the national need growth congress -- negro congress, various congressman said you have to give recognition to this young man. it was the pittsburgh courier, the african american newspaper that eventually broke the news this was dorie miller, the hero of pearl harbor, the navy was budged into doing something, because they could not ignore it. it is important to note that while black support for the war was widespread, it was not universal. some african americans looked to japan and said they are standing up to white supremacy. why don't we align ourselves with them, why should we fight for a nation that lynch's us and refuses equality? what the navy and the state did was turn miller into a symbol of american acceptance and diversity. you are fighting hitler, japanese racial supremacy, hitler has described back people as half men, half apes, but it was derogatory. what this allowed was for america to say "look at us compared to them. we are a diverse country. we are a country made up of democratic institutions, where our enemies are racial bigots of the wors

i can't tell you how many days it flew, but every day after a man was lynched, the naacp hung that flagover their headquarters. now, the key thing about that flag is, it's owned by the library of congress. temporarily in exhibition, and it is not something we want to collect all of these items because some items are one-of-a-kind and they gave that to us on loan when it comes off exhibition because it's a textile it will go into storage for another ten years. so for those of us who were like me. it's a historian, or just a student reading our books and we saw in a flag as an image it is actually here. see that's what the flag represents. it goes along with the red summer what african-americans were doing and their white supporters. that's key about the exhibition as well and the museum. you know, museums should exist to tell inclusive stories. so we're talking about people who are pushing the african-american experience forward. it's not just african-americans so there is this representative from st. louis, missouri, named leonidas dire and he puts forth an anti-lynching bill in 1914 an

the naacp, the national association for the advancement of colored people, various congress people at the time said no, no, no, you have to give recognition to this young man. it was the pittsburgh career, the african american newspaper which eventually broke the news that this is the guy, dorie miller, and the navy was budged into doing something because it couldn't ignore it. it is important to note, rob, that wealth black support for the war is more widespread it wasn't universal. some african americans looked to japan and said they are standing up to white supremacy. you know? why don't we align ourselves with it? why should we fight for a nation that lunches us and refuses us equality? so with an event stated is that they turned miller into a symbol of american acceptance and diversity. you mentioned this. you're fighting hitler. you're fighting japanese racial supremacy. hitler has described black people as hard men or something like that. half men. it was friendly derogatory. so what this allows is for america to say will look at us compared to them. we are a diverse country. w

jewish organizations, the naacp, the national association for the advancement of colored people, many people and many groups of the symbolism there. right? >> definitely. i think it was widely debated and discussed. the naacp certainly had strong feelings about this issue. >> as i understand, it they initially supported a boycott of participating. but once it was decided that they would send a delegation they were supportive of the athletes. is that? right >> that's true. so danny, let's put a little bit more of a personal case on this because this isn't just about abstract wars or organizations making a stand, but it is about athletes, young athletes, many of whom have trained their tireless for this moment. can you share a little bit? >> absolutely. many of them were in college at the time. they were college students, many college presidents had actually come out and supported a boycott of the games as well in 1935. one athlete story stands out, a hurdler named milton green. he was a senior at harvard at the time. here you see green running the hundred ten meter high hurdles. he had

. >> he is the president of the naacp. >> it was irresponsible to put lawmakers in danger the way law enforcement agencies did today. but it's equitable when you compare what we have seen all summer, peaceful protests and a response that was not consistent. >> gainer said that those who did break in to the capitol could now face felony charges. >> there's some pretty clear pictures of people in hall ways and hanging from the walls in the senate chambers. be wear. i hope we are with coming for you. >> and so police say 52 people arrested in all here. 26 people arrested here on capital grounds and there will be more arrests in the days to come. in the past, president trump's tweets have characterized black lives matter protesters as thugs, yesterday, tony, he called the mobs who breached the capitol here, great patriots who have been badly and unfairly treated for so long. >> that was jeff pegues outside the gillette proglide and proglide gel. five blades and a pivoting flexball designed to get virtually every hair on the first stroke, while washing away dirt and oil. so you're ready fo

right we'll cans, the executive director of the naacp. catherine paton, the commissioner of commerce in the state of kentucky. herbert jenkins, the chief of police and atlanta, georgia. the commission will investigate the origins of the recent disorders in our cities. it will make recommendations to me, to the congress, to the state governors and to the mayor for measures to prevent our more -- or contain such disasters in the future. and their work, the commission members will have access to the facts that are gathered by director edgar hoover in the federal -- federal bureau of investigation. the fbi will continue to exercise its full authority to investigate these riots in accordance with my standing instructions, and continue to search for evidence of conspiracy. even before the commission begins its work, and even before all the evidence is in, there are some things that we can tell about the outbreaks of this summer. first, let there be no mistake about it. the looting and arson and plunder and pillage, which have occurred, are not

roy wilkins, the executive director of the naacp. catherine graham, the commissioner of investigate these in accordance with my standing instructions and continue to search for evidence of conspiracy. but even before the commission begins its work and even before all the evidence is in, there are some things that we tell about the outbreaks of this summer. first, let there be no mistake about it. the looting and arson and plunder and pillage which have occurred are not part of a civil righ rights -- there is no american right to loot stores or to burn villains or to fire rifles from the rooftops. that is crime, and crime must be dealt with forcefully and swiftly and certainly under law. innocent people, negro and white, have been killed. damage to property owned by negroes and white is calamitous. worst of all, fear and bitterness which have been loosed will take long months to erase. the criminals who committed these acts of violence against the people deserve to be punished, and they must be punished. explanations may be offered, b

the naacp had strong feelings about this issue. edna: as i understand it, they initially supported a boycott of participating, but once it was decided they would send a delegation, they were supportive of the athletes. is that right? damion: that's true. edna: that's put more of a personal face on this. this isn't just about abstract boards or organizations making a stand. it is about athletes, young athletes, many of whom have trained their entire lives for this moment. can you share a couple of the stories? daniel: absolutely. many were college students at the time. many college presidents how to come out and supported a boycott of the games in 1935. story that stands out is a hurdler named milton greene, a senior at harvard at the time, you see him running the 110-meter high hurdles. he had times that would have qualified him for the olympics, and along with another jewish athlete name norman connors, here you see him, they meet with green's family rabbi, a man named harry leavy at temple in boston, and the rabbi talks to these

at the naacp we have been ringing this bell fwhor a while now. we launched a campaign to get facebook to begin to address white supremacist groups and domestic terrorists. this president has created the space where people fear more emboldened. he started the administration with charlotteville, virginia, and now in the final days, he's ending with the inciting treasonness acts with individuals who are domestic terrorists. >> sophia nelson is a senior columnist at the daily beast and former house republican investigative council and author of e pluribus one. we heard a lot of people over the last 24 hours saying this is not what america is. do you think that's correct, sadly, it actually is part of america, isn't it? >> absolutely, i mean, i think that one of the old sayings is the chickens have come home to roost, and yesterday in the capitol of the united states of america, that happened. some of the darkest impulses that we have had in our past history around mob violence, around riot, this was not protesters, this was not dissent, this was ange

the naacp held their conference in chicago, and they invited them for introductory remarks and he isckled from the floor. when they go to speak to kennedy about the march, he says "we have legislation that is currently going through congress. we would rather have new laws than have the negros out on the streets, and phillip randolph says the negros are already in the streets, mr. president, and i doubt if you called them that they would come back. that is the mood of the moment. that the patience has worn out, the forbearance, the ability to withstand the house that's can confine so strong they can knock bark from a tree. so they start to fight light with light. they respond to the bombings of the klan with violence. there is a fear among the civil rights leadership and among the kennedy administration, that black people will resist and will meet like with like. that is the mood that creates the necessity for a march that is called at the beginning of the year, but very few people won. most americans don't want it, particularly most white americans don't want it. kennedy doesn't want

african countries are happy that there is a change of white house especially because of the push of the naacp from the right of the last 4 years however even though it will come from the prism biting election and also sir in a new the don't really expect so much to change because they last time it was in power with president barack obama really didn't see much in terms of africa so even the african countries are excited are they for change and i do think that the pressure might present writing will be able to respect them they don't really have so much expectation that things would change overnight or is so important note the just made there that this wasn't just a trump thing but obviously with obama to many africans felt like they were being focused on less about trade we talked about the kenya deal why is this such an important thing whether this is brought to completion or whether it isn't. was so for the for example taking out bill when king actually was trying to sign that deal with a really you ways obviously were constrained among the african union because then there was a launch of t

the attempt onto the state of mississippi after the naacp for violence that had been carried out.to blame the naacp for this violence and went all the way up to the supreme court in 1982. they ruled essentially -- a unanimous decision that this kind of speech, the kind of speech that trump laid out, is actually protected. even if it results in violence, they can't go after the person who carried out that speech. -- thative a strong case that if you get a strong speech against segregation and there is some kind of violence carried out, you're not responsible. so i think -- i would love to see trump impeached. ralph nader and bruce fein have drawn up a list of 12 real impeachable offenses, not just a shakedown ukraine, but of course, i did the democratic party has been complicit in this administration. they could have impeached trump the first week, jumped on the emoluments clause alone. perpetuation of nine wars, if you count yemen, that were never declared by congress. but they did not do it because they saw trump as a fund-raising tool. the media has made tons of money off of tru
