so, in march of 1991 was the rodney king beating which was probably the first time amateur video was used to demonstrate police brutality. so maybe you could argue that it was the first black lives matter case. and it was enormous. and it consumed television. bush was so nervous about it that he called the attorney general to the white house, had a press conference in the white house about the beating. this is not the person who had died. just the fact that it was captured on television was big enough that the president of the united states called the attorney general into the oval office and condemns it from there in an extended press conference where that was the only thing they were there to talk about. we haven't even had that when people are killed in the street on video in these days. so you have to understand that context, it was enormous. and towards the beginning of the summer, the judge rules that the jury pool is so tainted in l.a., you have to move it out -- trial out of l.a. they haven't figured out where to move it. while they're waiting to figure where to move it, to w

if you recall 1991, this was a few months after the rodney king black lives matter citizen video showing on national television and so in the wake of this guy on the ground being beaten by all these white officers comes this hearing in which this black man is being questioned by this panel of white guys and that whatever black people might have thought about it, the image of that was a circle the wagon kind of moment that did not give full airing to anita's very credible account but because of the racially charged climate, it changed the dynamic of how the hearings played out in america. >> this time with the mid terms right around the corner, this is primarily about gender and about what was already the year of the women coming to vote and running her office super charged on a higher level now. to our panel, thank you for being here. quick break and a look at the smears, the overflow of misinformation coming out about ford. this is something that we've been seeing for a week now and these lies have to be taken head on. we'll get into that in just a moment. dogs have evolved, but their n

leonard pelletier, the rodney king trial, many others, the dred scott supreme court ruling, racism incism. this is a spokesperson for cosby who clearly is lacking intelligence and has really absolutely offended the true victims of racism in this justice system. that was a ridiculous statement. >> also called, an rivera va, are the trial a public lynching. cosby received a fair trial. 60 women came forward with accusations. how can he possibly make the case that this was tainted and this was the most racist -- i don't know, what do you think. >> i don't think he can make that case credibly. i think what's happening is the sentencing occurred during the same week we are watching women come forward and tell their truths and talking about accusations against brett kavanaugh. mark talked about the people that were celebrating cosby going to jail and sentencing. some of those same people celebrating cosby are also supporting kavanaugh. i don't know how you can celebrate cosby without holding kavanaugh accountable. i don't want kavanaugh to receive anything less than what wlarms bill cosby r

by the way, one chapter in my book is going to be quoting rodney king, can't we all get along: georgeeaks with five famous virginians. he completely broke with george mason, edwin randolph and three virginia presidents, jefferson, madison, and monroe. don't think that they are all sitting around holding hands singing "we shall overcome." there is a lot of friction among the founding fathers. go ahead. i can't see, but i can listen. >> how accurate do you think the play is? dr. henriques: how accurate the play is. in its general themes, it is pretty accurate. and miranda knows that he is not accurate. he knows that washington didn't write to hamilton and say there are soldiers in the field waiting for you, come on back. he knows that hamilton is pawing at the door, please let me leave, please, let me leave. [laughter] dr. henriques: there is a lot of literary license. but the general thrust of the experiment and the desire for freedom and the portrayal of washington as a strong charismatic individual, and i like the portrayal of washington very much. anyone else before we close up shop
