[inaudible] sexism, regionalism, we can go on and on with the isms. i am the oldest granddaughter of james leon, he is a monster fighting and so am i. that comes from southern tales of supernatural. a porch lie is not a mean or vicious lie, it is a story of exaggeration and humor. the one that loretta told you about, cake lawrence. all the people that knew him called him cake, he used to steal the warm cake that his mother put out. he would cut a slice and run off to the crawl space. they call him cake. i use that in my story. those 2 come from my grandmother, she was the germ, the seed of those 2 books and many others. let's go back to that front porch again. this time daddy james is the story teller. we sit at his feet and listen about stories about sara and pat and nollen. that is my brother, my sister, and me. we thought we were just as clever and smart and just as brave as the children in his story. he told stories vaguely familiar, but different some how because he told them his way. you see, i had no idea my grandfather was a functional illiter

but especially as a community and as a society and that poverty and racism and oppression and and sexism and homophobia -- that is not ok, and as long as people around us are suffering, we have work left to do. it is incumbent upon us not just to try to ease the suffering but to address through causes that it created in -- that have created those conditions in the first place. 10 years ago when i talked about affordable housing and why it was so important and is still important and there is still work to be done, i did it because i saw those who are living in squalid conditions. kids and infants laid out on the floor of a suitor it -- studio apartment in the mission district with no bathroom, infested with mice and cockroaches, bedbugs, in san francisco, calif.. if we allow that condition to exit and if we allow our neighbors and community to suffer the gun violence and the number of young men, many of them african american, who have been gunned down, while what we see here more often than not is folks trying to get an ideal -- a deal so they can build something or have some sort of cont

there was sexism that even you admit was in existence. no women could speak on the march at washington. the only woman that mounted the podium that day was mahalia, and only because she was singing. you know it is mahalia yelling, "tell them about the dream." >> using current technology, martin luther king, jr. could mentally cut and paste better than any individual i have ever known, on the spot. in other words, he could speak in real time, and as he was speaking in real time, he could draw from instances and power grabs and sentences from other speeches he had given, and he could insert them as he was talking in real time. that was not the first time he used the phrase "i have a dream." he used it earlier in a church. it was not the first time. but it is the first time he reconfigured it this way. when he used it in oklahoma, it did not have that kind of reaction. tavis: there had to be something about what happened in detroit that gave him reason to believe that he could or should take mahalia's advice and make that you turn and start

been independent since the primaries in 2008, what happened with the decline, my opinion about the sexism and racism that went against her. tea party meetings -- to see how things are because the democrats were over blowing them. but they are more conservative older whites. but they made in the state -- they got rid of the conservative democrats and kept the liberal democrats. my other post is, i think yet to pelosi got what she deserved. i think her karma came back to her. she invested in barack obama against hillary clinton and did a lot of the things that hillary democrats cannot forgive on. shot she backed up someone who decided to put money into health care instead of jobs. obama, next to bush, has to be one of the worst president in history for the fact that he just takes too many vacations. he did too much campaigning instead of worrying about getting the economy going. then he sends american businessmen to asia under our taxpaying dollars to get business -- to get harley- davidson to invest in india and those countries instead of here. host: let us leave it there. mary on a republ
