robbery pattern, and to be honest, it's a hypothetical that sadly mirrors the crime situation in new york city, that preys on minority victims in minority neighborhoods. when you look at who is committing robberies in new york, blacks are 23% of the population, they commit 70% of all robberies. whites by contrasts are 34% of the population and commit four percent of all robberies. so it's in those minority neighborhoods where you have elderly people, getting stuck up. so, when he came up with this pattern, out one that his police officers here again and again, not from themselves but from the victims of robbery themselves and it's -- police officers hope against hope that they will for once gate description of a suspect in a violent street crime, whether it's a drive-by shooting or robbery, that it white, but given the fact how crimes distributed in cities today that almost never happens. >> host: one definition of racism -- the definition i called classic racism -- you take the behavior of a few people, from a particular group, and then project that behavior on to everyone in the group. we ha

that someone had allowed it to help and it was very hard for me to understand how a community in new york city, one of the richest cities in the world could have a community that was so poor, that lacked resources. that lacked hope. and every time i read "the new york times" or the "new york post" or read "the wall street journal," there was always something negative being written. but it's hard to find something positive when all you have is this narrative, when all you have are children who are failing. i was in a kindergarten to eighth grade school. i was assistant principal of the middle school. no one had ever spoken to those children about going to college or showing them what college looked like. that was hard for me to understand. because when i would ask the children, let's talk about college, i'm not going to college. why aren't you going to college? because we don't go to college around here. you're going to go to college. you're going to have the opportunity. monday lopez i'm not going to college. i'm going to go to the school up the block. that's what we do. so luckily there was a

it is not our job to serve all new york city immigrants. we do it in partnership with our sister agencies throughout the new york city government with the really rich and broad community of community based organizations in new york, faith, labor, business. we work with all kinds of stakeholders and partners who see the benefit in supporting new york city immigrants. then, another sort of key to our success is thinking about testing innovative policies and programs, new approaches, for delivering services, connecting to immigrants. i think probably the best known program that we've launched in this administration is the idnyc program. it's new york city's municipal i.d. card, which was launched at the beginning of 2015. less than two years later, 1 in 10 new yorkers have a municipal i.d. card. it has just been tremendously successful and i'm happy to talk about it more. i think it has been a really great learning experience for us and the partnerships and collaborations that need to happen and how to design a program so they are useful and be

gist thinking about the size of new york city, the number of new york city residents who don't have a driver's license, we wanted the i.d. to be able to serve that purpose, at least in the city. >> in nevada, we're not there yet when it comes to an id. even the driver's authorization card specifically says on it not to be used for id purposes. even though some businesses could, we can't limit businesses from doing that. the other issue, too, with the drivers issues was the real id act. you have to do it in compliance with that. so our card is the alternative. if you don't want a real id, you can get this drivers authorization card. many businesses still allow for that. the other thing is that the mexican government with their card has increased their security measures, so those can be used where now in the past it was a little harder to use that. some of the other central american, south american countries, their consular card are a little better now. we've been able to use some of those for id purposes, especially when you're applying for the driver's license and other things. >> any
