it to people getting tear gassed people are getting beat down legally for the media to actually cover this they haven't been on this from day one which is i mean they cover the tea party very extensively but when they have so many different people come together this is a historic event and they should have been covering it from the beginning and sadly if it bleeds it leads and this is a perfect example of that case but even with the arrests and the violence that was the coverage that i saw in the mainstream it wasn't talking about why these people are occupying wall street you see those questions asked in foreign media covering this but i haven't really seen it by the mainstream media do you think that that undermines the movement may scare people away when they see all the brutality which is a negative effect of it of course so i've been you know i'm doing what i'm doing as i'm kind of a journalist because the mainstream media is not doing their job so that's why we're out there and that's why we're doing the interviews with who paid for us go out there and roseanne barr and try to g

are interacting with people in their environment. >> people are familiar with interruptions in their daily lives and it is media based, especially texting and internet and e-mail popping up. that would be an extension of our work to understand what that impact might be on our performance. >> professor suggests that people turn off their phones and log off the web. he said we have the choice to limit our media diet. >> there is a time to use and a time not to and we can make the decisions and use our knowledge of what is negative consequences to make informed decisions and to use it more effectively. >> reporter: he said fiddling around can with distractions while trying to complete a task is detrimental to the brain. >> it should be recognized that when you interruption a task with other activities, there is often a cost to pay. >> it's reducing our patience. >> san jose state university professor andrew woods said the problem is that we want information fast and quick. >> with internet communication and social media, i'm just going to whatever works. and if it's a little complicated

some native people are very upset that other tribes are disenrolling people. and this also oftentimes has to do with money. >> now, in terms of another stereotype, i think, americans as a whole understand that there are many native americans who live outside the reservation and i understand the word that's used in the community is usually the res, not the reservation, but if you do look at the people who live on the res, they are not 100% enrolled members of a particular tribe. there's more diversity there than people would expect? >> yeah, this is true. and i should -- i should say, gary, i never say res 'cause i'm nonnative. and i sort of think that's a native word to say, even though i say reservation because it has morselbles. it seems appropriate too me as an outsider. >> i'll follow your lead. [laughter] >> but what happens sometimes, too, is that i didn't realize that so many nonnative people lived on reservations. and mostly non -- nonnative white people because they bought their property from the homestead act and other federal properties that basical

vote for people who are. encouraging poor people to vote. like welfare recipients and what have you heard unemployed people but it sure well the idea of it was to harangue them into supporting redistributionist politicians so if poor people vote what happens is they elect officials who will take money from wealthy people and give it to them as our say and they will support redistribution of wealth policies that redistribute wealth you know i'm not i'm not trying to debate this whole you know i don't understand how to get to the essence of this so you've got a lot of poor people and they vote for politicians and those politicians pursue redistributionist economic policies welfare or taxes on the rich money comes from the rich because the poor people those poor people are no longer poor right know because they go to the money now if you encourage people to go on welfare they will stay poor you should not be encouraging people to to be on the dole to be unproductive so eventually you know you don't believe that

to know that people with disabilities can and have survived and succeeded, letting people know that soledad rose as is not just a person with a disability, that soledad has dreams, aspirations, goals. >> her goal is to have her own radio show. and she didn't think cerebral palsy will keep her from realizing her dream. she's close to it at a san jose radio station. >> thank you for joining us today. you can see the eagle tequila sunrise on k-bay. >> is this the first time you've hired someone with disabilities. >> as a program director and such, i worked with people with disabilities, wheelchairs and such, and it's always fine. i've never had an inturn personally so it's a new experience for me. and everything i've given her she's done wonderful with. >> little things, the things that make me feel -- >> the inturnship was arranged through a professor at san jose state. soledad is close to graduation and when the time comes she hopes to be one of the 14,000 people who find jobs every year through the department of rehabilitation. but having help of the d.o.r. is no guarantee of findin

you have to know people. imf the thinking negative pastors need to speak prophetically about the culture and for their own but faith and then to embed ourselves into the ongoing narrative. and then those who will stay stuck in a psycho that the future will be different than the past and those of, us can actually help peopleew with the different narrative and we need to do more that and more encouragement and uplifting because that recognizes the person has dignity. it is not determined in terms of your own political life. cor how can we inspire to come out of that? the stories are incrediblyreat important in in part this a great tragedy of the current tipoff generation with the in lives of those who lived in jim-crow and slavery. i grew up hearing the stories i hear them again to w beou reinforced. we don't want to go back. the good old days is the future. i am not going back 21950. i think those things are important. good question. >> you mentioned church. could close disparities what was the effect on the w

it was the people. i kept hearing about what individual firefighters did, members of the department of defense about how a navy flight surgeon and another naval officer crawled into a hole while group of other people were looking at the same old going it's impossible to crawl in there. these are people with no protective gear. as a matter of fact, commander, commander tarantino, if you would simple, this is what he was wearing when he crawled through that hole. to give you an idea. [applause] >> probably doesn't want me pointing them out. other members of the fire department a year. i talk too long ago and earned project were very helpful. also from virginia task force one, the stories these people told me what absently slapped me. and i was like how these people not on good morning america everyday? how are these people not on the nightly news and even though new york was so tragic, it was their stories. that really pulled me in. i think when you read the book you'll see a lot of these stories. we also

who make money from money and people only money from work and most of these middle class people make money from work and they should cast their lot in with the poor people who make their money to the point where being employed means little ones well i once. did i know in both once said very quickly that for him working class men people who didn't want to work. was an urgent cleaner when it collapsed and i would put it another way around when you get a crisis the middle class becomes the people who have to work and they stop having this illusion that they can become rich like everybody else and suddenly realize hey we're just like the poor guy down the street that i used to pass by they're all in the same boat when they realize that then you'll get democracy back then you'll get equality back because once people think we're all in the same boat then they start thinking we should all have the same rights except the guys are taking it away from us and that's precisely where we need much more many more risk in sharing risk and profit sharing arrangements so that you know you don't have a

people. and i think that each of those sets of people have their own sets of issues. i just don't, i just don't see the point in trying to make it into a contest. >> host: ellis cose, let's take a point to talk about your second book, a nation of strangers. if you could tie him with what you sing and tell is the thesis. >> that's basically a book about the immigration history of the united states, beginning in the 1700s, 1790s, our first naturalization act, which limited naturalization to those who were free and white. it's a look at how in some ways we have changed our definitions as we move through the years, of what a minority is and what white is. there was a period during the turn of the last century who are looking at immigration laws where italians and other southern and eastern europeans were by some definition not considered wise and certainly jews were not considered white for many americans, knight-ridder's history of testing of psychometrics which tries to make the case that they

so you catch people early. and in policy weight, samhsa has been very proactive in providing grants to states to do sbirt. a lot of private insurers are now covering it because work through a number of administrations to put it into health insurance and a billing code and in health care you don't exist until you have a billing code. so, i think, it's one of the more exciting things that's happening in health care at the moment. which truly brings up a challenge talking about billing codes in terms of recovery services. have they achieved the-in some states, i believe they do have a billing code, correct joe? right and we're just fortunate that these are those great times that managed care has jumped on board and we are fortunate to have two billing codes to do peer services. in fact, to do peer recovery coaching and to do peer support groups. the other thing to how it connects to the sbirt is that sbirt is the screening piece and right now we are actually in training to see how can we do that early intervention

to be honest, people pigeonhole people. that is evident. i think it is part of our overall culture but it definitely in the business i work in, if you are successful and one thing, people will tend to assume that is the only way you can be a success. i was on a funny tv show. after that everyone wanted to put me on another funny tv show. it did not interest me very much even though i had a great time. i love all of those people. i did not want to do it again. i quit and i always wanted to go to college. when i came back, i wanted to do things it would challenge me as an actor and some independent movies and stuff. a lot of people did not believe that was something i could do. luckily a few people did. some people took a chance on me. tavis: that is great to step away and get an education and come back and hope it will work the second time around. >> you have to be able to let go. it is not going to go the right way, forcing something never works. tavis: batman, anything you can tell me? >> well, it is written and directed by christopher nol

there that are these are these young people are they all they're people because the tea party right the thing that made them stand stand out is it was mostly middle aged white males who we see here but i guess some of middle aged white men i was there the way. over here is actually the people who are twenty's and wall street and i think one of the tea party favorites was actually their message was consistent with corporate power they advocate less government recorder powerful corporate media coverage then you see a demonstration of twenty five tea parties they get covered and if you know thousand or more people on wall street they don't get covered except by our team a few a few outlets so i think a lot of what comes from the magnification brought by corporate media that's what makes the quote the tea party because if you look at polls the tea party is not very popular there are tiny minority in the united states if they get this image of being this big only already and i said you explore that with them for every residential the base of service in a way so i think that a lot of the

people to do this in that way." it was like a bunch of little battling sects. and what's changed that's really exciting is that there's this collective sense of we need to honor all pathways to recovery. and i think csat actually deserves a lot of credit for that with the national summit on recovery. when people stood up there with people who had recovered "the wrong way" and said, "this is not my pathway, but i honor and accept that." that's when the recovery movement started to become a force because if you don't divide yourself then you have the ability to influence lots of other people and that's very important because this is a health problem and nobody ever says about cancer, "you know, oh, you got better on tomaxafin instead of chemotherapy, how sad." they say, it's great. you've recovered from cancer. and that's what we should say. everybody who recovers from these disorders, we should hug them, celebrate them, be very, very happy. and we do during recovery mont. that's right. yes. may i say something about

sitting in their living rooms will see it will motivate younger people will motivate people who follow you tube and these things going viral does have that ironic effect however you know there has to be something else you saw it with troy davis when i was posing with african-americans of all economic stripes it's got to be that kind of own face attack me at my base level thing to get people out in the streets that's what happened wisconsin because people's jobs literally were at stake and you know here it's a little more indirect it's really interesting we also saw you know the new york times and their coverage of it they have been covering this to an extent but one of their main big articles about this with essentially entirely about the lack of organization i think a lot of the protesters out there would agree that there is that but again and i think the big point in marseille and let me talk to you i think you're a native new yorker i think your accent might say that on and i pretty sure i right you. from. one of the boroughs but you know new york city is the place where fifty of th

we treat people very fast. we treat more people at in united states. whether that is good or bad, that is a different question. and maybe one of our economic problems. >> thank you so much. >> we are out of time. i think we can all appreciate this great speech. thank you so much for coming. [applause] thank you all for coming. we afford to seen at are few -- seeing you at our future events. [captioning performed by national captioning institute] [captions copyright national >> midafternoon everyone. i think we are about to begin. -ms. peter cherukuri. i will be a moderator for what i know will be a very exciting conversation. it is a topic that is near and dear to everyone on the panel. hopefully that is why you are in front of me. i want to welcome you. this is the second annual a.m.p. summit. for those that may not know, it is an acronym for something that i think is important to understand the interconnections between activism, advocacy, media, and policy. while we are going to be focused on in this session is how the news -- what is the future of t

income tax on upper income people and these are people whose who get that. we we we can't continue to have lower and lower rates on upper income people my what what would be fair to them that would be fair i mean we can we're all saying that you know it's not as easy to say the tax the rich tiresome or what but how much more what would you do ok so the first thing i would do is make capital gains on par with regular income not advantage that that income stream and dividends as well i would raise make the taxes you know particularly at the upper end go back to the bush levels you know and that would account for quite a bit in terms of income and you know i think at some point we may want to look at even more progressive taxes i also think we need to have a stronger estate tax you know it's it's been weakened but if you made a lot of money in this country you did it with a lot of government support a lot of society support when you go to hand that money on to the next generation you should pay a significant chunk of that and the estate tax has been weakened at

people began to small rat. this is distasteful. -- people begin to smell a rat. it ignores some of the data. in san francisco, seniors are disproportionately the pedestrians who were injured and injured severely. when you make seniors are people with disabilities walk, they have to cross one or two more intersections. you are not looking at this has a two are putting them through. you're not looking at the fact that when people are at two stops and it is consolidated, they're clustered more. that may mean some of us who are not as fast and agile do not get on the bus. there is double the number of passengers. that is one of the problems you are overlooking and is not part of ceqa. i will suggest you need to do that. mission high school students last may suggested there may be some stocks added. they saw places in the mission that were destinations for them and muni has no clue. >> that is the last person who wishes to address you on this matter. >chairman nolan: is there motion? all in favor? thank you. it is nice to see you. >> item 15, discussion and vote to co

so, views of jewish people or italian people or black people, they had the same prejudices applied, and when you have society under great economic stress or turmoil, these tensions, people are tribal, and i think the great strength of organizations like the naacp of that year was to not go the route of markus who wanted to be tribal for black people. we're going to move to africa, okay, fine. that tribalism, they rejected it. here's the united states constitution. i get the same rights that you do, and their ability to do that and fight for that in that chaotic situation to me was very, very impressive, and inspiring. i think that i was part of writing this book when i started to do the research, i thought they'll be an element of atonement, a white guy, grew up in america, white man, but the more i did the research for this book, the motion i felt myself with these americans who i wish i knew more about earlier in my life who were doing this amazing work. >> can you describe how you first became aware of this vast way of racial violence in the year 1919 and your thought process when yo

and people always say...t us, yes, and we've got to do something about it. at the same time, people say it's intolerable to have this number of people out of work, it's very dangerous for society, it's inhumane but no society can exist with enormous unemployment and you sina in cairo, you saw it in spain. and the rebellion in egypt and in spain and places like this those are college educated kids who d what we said and can't get a job. so you have to do something. >> rose: and kids who were looking at america and other places saying "why can't we have all that they have?" >> then you look here and we don't have it. so you have these arguably confliing objectives. what is the nexus between them it is confidence. in the end, confidence is barack obama's job. that's what the executive does. they have give a vision, a rationale, they have to stand up to the criticism, they have to be a sis bomb. you know, i'm going to the dentist. i'm taking the subway. why? little things at the mind level, you have to live the l

but let's just say simply our people should be the best people, best paid people in the world. that's number one. number two, it should be good to be in the middle class in america. you shouldn't have to wonder -- [applause] how you're going to meet your bills and how you're going to afford college for your kids and whether you can take the prescriptions that have been prescribed. it should be good to be in the middle class in america. america should be a job machine. jobs being created all the time, people looking for employees to join their enterprise. young people out of college able to get jobs right away. people coming out of vocational schools able to get jobs right away. even kids coming out of high school. we should have a job creating machine in america. we ought to see the world buying the things we make. we should be proud of the fact that they buy as much from us if not more than we buy from them. and we also -- [applause] i also see america being on the leading edge of innovation. the time and again just like we've been in the past and when there's a new invernings

study in their living rooms will see now it will motivate younger people it will motivate people to follow you tube and these things going viral does have that ironic effect but however you know there have to be something else you saw it was troy davis it was posing with african-americans of also economic stripes it's got to be that kind of owns attack me at my base level to get people out in the streets that's what happened wisconsin because people's jobs literally were at stake and you know here it's a little more in the red that was georgetown university journalism professor chris chambers and rap artist and activist marcel cartier. and we also want to get the perspective of other people who attended because there are so many takes and experiences from the occupy wall street protest and of course all this has been going on now lawmakers in washington are not occupying anything except for a whole lot. of the american people's time and patience now senate leaders of just come to an agreement just down the street here on capitol hill that will prevent a government shutdown however t

people. solely with people that kind of background really. well it's not forget it's a dream court actually did state two executions in the state of texas recently a right we have a case of doing back in and just today. it was one more for a cleaner faster so i guess things are always possible but we're not sure here but you know another thing happened today which is two lawmakers from the state of georgia one senator and one representative they're now asking those who work in the prison to strike or to hold the sickout so basically they have nothing but just the bare bones minimum amount of employees there to morrow have never seen anything like that done before. not that i know i mean it seems sort of unlikely i mean i doubt that they're going to if they could get even if you know a couple people decided to do that i doubt they could get enough to actually not be able to carry forth with the execution but i mean i think there is a you know a real kind of central point to be made here and that is that. i mean it's the people pushing for davi

and we still scare some people a bit. people are not used to this unmediated environment. as long as you drink water, you are probably going to be ok. there is not a lot of criminal activity. everyone is really over provided for. to meet the survival challenge, they oversupplied. superfluous goods that people end up giving away to one another. there is really not a lot of crime. there is too much to do. [laughter] >> could you talk more about that factor, that there is an abundance of good, which is interesting, being in the desert. the economic system that is up there. we talked a long time ago for a "for a magazine" story. one of the things that you said is that commerce, in an of itself, is not the enemy. it is the backbone of civilization. >> to be against commerce is to be against your clothing. who would be against commerce? we just said we are living in a world that has been overly come modified. where everything has been turned into a commodity value. people do not have the identities. we are world full of brands and no identity. you can read your entire life -- yo

we have people living in garages, people renting rooms. people say that there is a parking problem. we have a housing problem in district 11. it is hard for a city like san francisco to deal with, but we have to figure out how we can improve the housing situation for these people living in the sub standard situations. >> what about the issue of homelessness? what are your ideas on dealing with this? >> we have a long-term plan to combat homelessness through a continual of care. it looks at economics, housing stock, health care support, and all those pieces need to be part of our deal with homelessness in san francisco. on the public health side, we need to make sure we have services that are going to help people stabilize their lives, how they can access mental health services, substance abuse services. a lot of people on the street are suffering from a disease of alcoholism, drug dependency. a lot of them are there because they have lost their jobs, housing. some of them are there because of hiv. that is one cause -- one part of the homeless population, but also, being homeless mak

or is it working against the interests of those of the people those people don't like i would argue the latter and that he wants to further make the system rigid make social mobility even more difficult and he wants to enhance the government and hence the government's friends in this corporate state this government big government big corporation rule that's he wants to increase that at the expense of the rest of us and it's a very vicious program he's proposing but how is he doing now by saying that the that the wealthiest in this country need to take more taxes not less and that the people who make under two hundred fifty thousand shouldn't have to pay more taxes i mean you know we actually saying that the u.s. government the biggest richest most powerful government in the history of the world the average government employee you've got making twice what the average citizen makes we're supposed to think they don't have enough money they got too much money for too much money so the idea that anybody's taxes should be increased and let's remember taxes are the government puts a gun to

over i people should be. changed the proposition i mean rich people have a lot of money a lot of move benefited actually got through this contraction didn't they get pay more in taxes i mean it seems almost to be a moral thing to do at this time expression we have these billionaires in europe and we have more warren buffett saying the same thing. then not just warren buffett henry blodgett was a multimillionaire hold on. in our block text group yeah yeah so a tax grew like henry block who by the way is also a lifetime registered republican even he came out in the news last week and said you know the rich have a debt to this country they can afford to pay it and they should i would also remind david luban that the bush tax cuts well they affected all income filers over the last ten years of the bush tax cuts and income filey between twenty thousand and thirty thousand saved ten dollars a year well income earners above million saved four hundred thousand so it's very clear who benefits from those tax cuts and l

and then get all of the people -- people of means, take them to that. then the whole neighborhood comes in. maybe bring in glass blowers and show them how to make things, work with the people. i have not talked to anybody, so i do not want to get ahead of myself. but you see the strategy i am talking about that goes right to the root of community. that engages everyone as a participant. and i do not just mean, here you go, susie. cut this, and we will slap it on. you participated. in the new year, we are going to be ready with things you want to do. we want them to be expressive, interactive, collaborative. i do not know if everyone is an artist, but they can express themselves. >> i look forward to that. some credi>> what is burning a's relationship right now with empire, nixon, burlap? how has that evolved over time, do you have twitter set up with them? >> we have been out there for 20 years. we know the folks out there.

out and the oligarchs like the government don't like these people they don't like new people coming up and moving up from within the social hierarchy as well as in the economy they like to crush them so they're going to have more taxes on the other job creators the wealth creators in fact taxes are wealth destruction so anybody proposes more taxes seeks to make us poorer as a group however the elites will make a lot more money out of this the government's going to do for on all the government the job holders that obama's been wanting us to weep over her make twice as much by the way as the average american taxpayer cops firemen teachers and so forth government construction workers make twice or more than twice but the average guy makes so about talking about that kind of class where warfare he actually wants to help the ruling class and stick it to the productive process will certainly lose there are some teachers in construction workers that make six figure salaries but i would argue that in the jordie of than you know our right there in you know the fifty's and sixty's and for a fami

anything for the people of bahrain it did apparently do something for the people of libya will see that was a good idea in the longer term but what about your country what about yemen would you like to see a no fly zone for example ok ok peter let me just compare and contrast libya and yemen yes i would like to see and not fly zone but we don't want any aircraft to be actually in the in the in the air hitting people or hitting our you know some sports in the ground we just want unauthorized on like it was once i mean you cannot have a no fly zone without military force i'm sorry it's impossible not to i don't know they had it in iraq they had it in iraq come on. peter just what i meant we don't know. no no no that's simply wrong let me. jump in let's remember let's remember what the no fly zone in iraq meant no fly zone in iraq meant the destruction of rebel forces in the course of the game are the. prize. in the south it meant the attack on the kurds in the north after the first gulf war it was the preparation for sanctions it became the preparation for the for the military interventio

in the white house but it's the people who are sitting in in places so the people in the park actually have war potential to create change than those in power and i have been to believe that because what they are doing is awakening a consciousness in america and a lot of people who have felt isolated who have felt fearful who lost hope maybe after the two thousand and eight election are finding that you know we're not going to get what we want from one man who we elect but we might get something if we all band together and start to create changes as you know as as a people but do you buy this notion that they have to look more professional look more put together that respect only khans when you're wearing a suit me what is that setting from the rest of the disdain and left over from the sixty's i feel like we have enough people in suits running this country. yeah i mean it does seem to be that to me sounds like a class based elitist type of a sentiment and i would say that. where that would come from is from people who actually do consider themselves to be part of the establishment who

people would have still showed up and said let's get people out. and let's not forget, and a lot of people don'tmention this, 20,000 people were saved that day. 20,000. there were people in tha building, both buildings and these guys ran up and said get out, get out. and they gotut. aney kept going up. >> so what is the legacy of this. >> it has to be of the film, of the day is the greatness of humanity. it has to be. you can't put a negative spin on it. you have to turn around and say mankind rose up at the darkest moment to help somebody else in need. no matter what the circumstances were. >> what would you add to that? >> i feel privileged and honored to be inspired every day by what i have seen ton that day. it was first responders. answering the call, despite all the danger, and that is what basically gives me such an energy every single day. and such pride to have witnessed that, firsthand. >> . >> same thing. i think it's the date it is all about hope. it's all about the darkest hour. that's where, you know, humanity shines the brightest. an

but if you let people loose in an environment -- people will always give to a greater gift. it is just a principle. if a group get together to give a gift to an entire city, it is easy to find people who will give to that. and the consequence is, you can learn a lot. talk about a networking opportunity. but nobody ever went there to network. they went out there to give their energy, imagination, their heart to something. >> there is that collaboration, the cross-disciplinary thing that happens out there, but i also feel like there is a bit of a sense of competition. people are trying to outdo each other, try to outdo each other trt impressive thing. >> that is human nature. i read a few years ago somebody complaining, i remember the good old days. you could put up a pink flamingo in front of your tent and it was cool. now with all of these big projects, i feel few tile -- futile. well, they learned the wrong lesson. the interesting thing is, people say that they are connected, but in an environment like that, it is easy to get connected. it is easy to get help. unless you in

and he never lost that as president yet he has a great feeling to people and people meet him one on one it's amazing they'll tell you about and of course very successful as campaign young people felt that he's making changes and even today with a deep recession a tough recession he's still very optimistic you have to be optimistic because everybody's got we're going through a recession so you have to know there's light at the end of the tunnel but we're going to get there people rush to the often bama to kennedy and well you would of course say they're different can't compare people because if you start each one has their own identity their own character they're all ideas of what their president should do but most importantly they understand the great sacrifice that former presidents have made to the country and i can't speak for him but he's taken a part of all of them that some way have made a wonderful contribution all the presidents to our country in the world do you think michelle obama has her own political ambition could could could could she be like like hillary clinton numb
