but as with every ku klux klan death ray story i encounter, i believe you've got to look on the bright we may think of these guys as back woods, racist hatemongers but it turns out that some of them are urban, enlightened hatemongers because they offered this weapon to jewish organizations to kill muslims and other enemies of israel. folks, i believe this is what martin luther king was talking about when he dreamt of a day when people of all creeds and colors could sit together at the table of brotherhood to discuss microwaving arabs. but it is a little embarrassing for me because i never thought these ignorant bigots could ever be smart enough to build a death ray. it turns out i was just blinded by my own prejudiced. i judged these klansmen on the color of their robes and not on the content of their radioactive murder machine. and for that, i must take a moment right now to say, can you clucks clan, i apologize. i can't imagine that anyone could ever take that out of context. we'll be right back. xppppxppxpxppxppxpxxxxxx >> stephen: thank you very much. welcome back, everybody. my gu

so facing the ku klux klan, they brought back baseball in 1964. laughter] [inaudible] anyway, they s-[inaudible] anyway, they said don't play. but they went ahead and played anyway. the first game they had a bomb threat. it was right part of the first inning. there was a bomb threat, and he looked as he was waiting to get tickets and he was a businessman. he did not want to bring baseball back because he was an integrationist. he was already a millionaire in that industry. but he thought about it. he decided to not report the bomb threat. which would never happen today. he also thought that if we have to call the first game in two years here because of a bomb threat, the national media will jump all over this. and we have art he had too much negative publicity in birmingham. so he went ahead with this and the bomb did not go off. charlie finley hired this team. he was howard sullivan and he went to an all-white high school. he then went to play football as the quarterback of the university of florida not only on the teams, but in the whole school,

last time i checked on the ku klux klan's main tactics were lynching and murder and they were blowing up churches and killing little girls of them. you know going from the churches to make approaches to the kansas protestors did none of the things that the klan is carrying a white supremacist group with people trying to make sure families are broken up by deportations isn't just inaccurate it's real while the fences and the very very ugly james taranto what is it about the military sexual assault crisis that brings out the worst in conservatives in a column for monday's edition of the wall street journal toronto argued that senator claire mccaskill's decision to block the promotion of general susan helms because the general helped one of her commanders get clemency after a sex or sexual assault charge as part of quote a war on men a political campaign against sexual assault in the military but shows saw as a becoming an effort or criminal laws male sexuality. actually james the only thing senator mccaskill is trying to do is make sure rapists are punished and if you think that is crim

a man involved in the ku klux klan could be atlanta's serial killer. >> atlanta was about to explode re was information potentially that the klan could have been doing this. >> bob ingram with the gbi, georgia's bureau of investigation got the case. >> it was an entire family of brothers that were involved in the klan that were the focus of this particular intelligence information. >> an informant said one brother threatened lubie jeter, the child found dead only weeks before. the klan associate lived here on a dead end street in the railroad town of mountain view, on the outskirts of atlanta. >> we're tapping telephones. we heard a lot of rhetoric. we heard a lot of racial slurs. >> on one wiretap, the detectives heard this said. "go find you another little kid." the gbi followed the four brothers for almost two months. >> these family members were under surveillance at that time, physical surveillance where we had an eyeball on them. >> in those two months, six more black youths would disappear and die. detectives saw nothing to link the klan to them. >> if somebody was in there wit

according to the criminal complaint suspects tried to raise money from jewish organizations and from the kuklan. officials say the men had already finished a remote control for their device which would release a deadly dose of radiation. one of the men called it hiroshima light switch. a reference to the u.s. deadly bombing in japan during the bombing in world war ii. prosecutors say the men used the phrase disposing of medical waste to describe killing muslims the suspects face up to 15 years behind bars if convicted. well, now we know the feds are spying on us with drones right here. not just overseas. today, the director of the fbi admitted it. robert mueller said it's happening here in the united states. does the fbi use drones for surveillance on u.s. soil? >> yes. >> i want want to go on to a question -- >> -- let me put n context though in a very very minimal way and very seldom. >> shepard: and seldom. director mueller fed establishing guidelines for the proper use of those drones. obviously those guidelines are not in place because they are establishing them. as he put it the fbi i

you have glenn beck protested that the kansas secretary of state's house, he's comparing them to the ku klux klan. >> 700 protesters got into buses at a church and went to his house to protest. this is the same tactics used by the klan in the 1960s. >> if tactic, you mean travels from point a to point b in a vehicle powered by a combustible engine, then yes immigration reform protesters are exactly like the kkk, mr. beck. when the heritage foundation let the eugenics guy write his report, it was senator jim demint -- he up and quit in the middle of his term to go run the heritage foundation. it turned out the backbone was sort of really ostentatiously racist and the researcher got fired. jim demint did not get fired. when fox news needed a guest to talk immigration reform, they booked jim demint. that was their go to expert guy. over in the senate, the bipartisan group of senators working on the immigration reform. the immigration reform bill, they reported a few hours ago, they have made significant progress. one republican senator said a deal could be reached as early as tomorrow. wat

[applause] it is further recommended that this return to the buses will not take place until the mandate from the united date supreme court is turned over to the federal district. >> that was november of 1955. >> that this mandate would come from montgomery in a manner of just a few days. for those three or four da

they met with people in the south they thought were representing the ku klux klan but as i say they were all undercover operatives and never got materials they needed. they thought they were developing this device but the fbi says it was harmless. >> thank you for those details. "news nation" is following president obama's call to reduce the world's nuclear stockpiles during a dramatic speech in front of a powerful symbol of the cold war. the president and the first lady are attending a state dinner hosted by german chancellor angela merkel. the president's speech came one week shy of the 50-year anniversary of president john f. kennedy's famous speech where he denounced communism and declared i'm a berliner. >> echos through the ages but that's not all that he said that day. let's remember is the challenge he issued to the crowd before him. let me ask you, he said, to those berliners, let me ask you to lift your eyes beyond the dangers of today. after a comprehensive review, i determined that we can ensure the security of america and our allies and maintain a strong and credible strateg

have you supreme court justices, you have senators, members of the ku klux klan and have survived. should survive this. >> should she? >> i don't think we should put a hammer on her head. she should pay for it, but should survive it. >> gloria, your thought? >> i think they didn't give adequate apologies, that's for sure. a series of fumbled apologies, deciding she wasn't going to appear on the "today" show after she committed to being on the "today" show. and doing the video apologies. she didn't have the courage to go on and face the questions about what she said. what did she say? apparently at some point she said she used the "n" word, not in a cruel or mean way. is there a good way to use the "n" word? i don't think so. and it wasn't an isolated comment. apparently she's used it more than once. so in order to be forgiven, they will have to clearly acknowledge what she's said and take responsibility for what she has said and ask for forgiveness. >> gloria, chris rock, a lot of black comedians, rappers using it. it should never be used in our society, but, unfortunateli, it's ou

maintain fidelity of at least allowing that type of speech to occur to the point where, for example, the kuklux klan or supporters of theirs came to a town i was in, hoboken, new jersey, a few years ago and wanted to do a demonstration in front of a jewish synagogue there. their right to do so was protected, because they have that ability to speech. if there was an incitement to violence, that is different. the larger issue of calling an assertion of a religious belief hate speech, which is what reverend gene was talking about, it obviously is a concern, and it is a concern that cuts both ways. i appreciate the elder's remarks with regard to the discussion over the lgbt movement. being one of a community somehow, working to assert its fundamental human dignity in the way that it saw fit, like our struggle. i also believe is our way of articulating human dignity in a way we see fit. it is going to be imported without giving up core values to respectfully and forth our views -- put forth our views on these issues, but in a way that is respectful. we ask not to be demeaned, dehumanize, and i w

three civil rights workers registering blacks to vote were murdered by the local ku klux klan. >> we're trying to improve our city. >> reporter: jim prince and leroy clemens are part of the new south. prince runs the local newspaper. clemens heads the county's naacp. they have formed a multiracial coalition in philadelphia to help heal the city's wounds. pr my predecessor would probably not have sat here and trusted jim at all. >> once we kind of got to know each other and understand where the other was coming from, we made a lot more progress. >> reporter: is there still an issue with trust? >> i think it's more about the people who are still in power that want to stay in power. you look at all these new voter suppression things, voter i.d. laws. you see it happening all over the country. it's scary. >> reporter: african-americans make up 37% of mississippi voters. the highest percentage in the country. 29% of its state legislature is african-american. heat's also the highest in the country. >> there's been incredible change. basic, drastic change. when is the federal government going

the ku klux klan could i have come up with a better slogan. here is where public policy, as you were talking about teenage pregnancy -- and again, those statistics are real. i guarantee you, sunday morning there will be ministers in the black community preaching against it and telling people, please take personal responsibility. but let me add something. you talk about public policy, being from detroit. once a young girl becomes pregnant, we do not just toss them aside. they are still somebody. they still need opportunity to lift themselves up. so what happens in the city of detroit with a school that allowed mothers who had children to attend their school, and almost 90% of those girls children went on to college? do you know what they did? they cut funding of that school. that is public policy. and that should not have been done. and so, again, you do not cut the floor from under the people who find themselves faced down on the floor. you give them the opportunity to lift themselves up. you heard the president say this in his speech. people

so for me, i'm always reminding my students that the ku klux klan was also a community-based organizationl. on the one hand, i want the people to fight back, but i also want to think about, the terms you were fighting back were controversial. we've got much more on the people's fight, because there's a little bit more of the people's fight. remember, we've been talking to you about the struggle that continues about those everyday low wages at walmart? that fight continues too, when we get back. [ female announcer ] it's simple physics... a body at rest tends to stay at rest... while a body in motion tends to stay in motion. staying active can actually ease arthritis symptoms. but if you have arthritis, staying active can be difficult. prescription celebrex can help relieve arthritis pain so your body can stay in motion. because just one 200mg celebrex a day can provide 24 hour relief for many with arthritis pain and inflammation. plus, in clinical studies, celebrex is proven to improve daily physical function so moving is easier. celebrex can be taken with or without food. and it's not a

canada we maintain fidelity to that tradition to maintain that but to the point* for example, where the ku klux klan or supporters of theirs came to a town in hoboken in new jersey a few years ago and wanted to do it demonstration in front of a jewish synagogue. and their right to do so was protected because they have that ability to speech now there was the incitement of violence was different but the larger issue of calling the assertion of a religious belief hate speech is what reverend was talking about is obviously a concern that cuts both ways. i really appreciate the remarks with regard to the discussion over the elegy bt movement being one of a community somehow to assert the fundamental human dignity in a way that it saw fit i also believe is our way to articulate human indignity and it will be imported without giving up core values to respectfully but for the reviews on these issues but doing in a way that is respectful not to be dehumanized and i will share a quick anecdote. yesterday i was in a very uncomfortable position. i was in the cab coming from union station and the cabd

yes, the clan. as in ku klux klan? yes, that clan. when you subtract the mainstream from the argument, even as mainstream as fox news, what remains is crazy town. and it is crazy town on the right that's leading the media charge against immigration reform. the more normal part of the conservative media world has been sort of brought over to the other side. the same kind of cleaving between the mainstream right and the way far cooky right is happening not just in the media side, but also in the raw politics. in south carolina senator lindsey graham a few weeks back faced this ad airing in his home state attacking him for supporting reform. the ads ran across the state of south carolina. you can see here the ad is paid for a by a group called numbers usa. they were founded by roy beck who is described as an expert on sprawl and global population. you can also find roy beck here on the site of something called the american renaissance urging people to run to their phones and call congress to stop immigration reform. he's using american re

but a violent terrorist backlash led by the ku klux klan, prevented the implementation of our constitution for 100 years until a new civil rights struggle based on nonviolence, but no less powerful, forced our nation the courts, and this congress to recognize those promised constitutional rights. among the forms of recognition were the civil rights act of 1964 and 1965. they transformed the political landscape of america, but the truth is that beginning as far back as the nixon administration efforts sought to chip away at those rights. yesterday's supreme court decision undermining the enforcement of voting rights is the latest attempt to roll back history. shall we go forward? or shall we go backwards? the rapidly changing demographics of our nation is calling new forces into the struggle for civil and voting rights every day, and our response to yesterday's supreme court decision presents a challenge for every member of this congress. and we have to ask ourselves which side are you on? for me the path is clear, we need a federal right to vote enshrined in our constitution, one clearly u
