president of the confederacy, stated that the confederate government was based on the great truth that the negros not equal to the white man. that speech is now called the corner stone speech because that idea is the corner stone of the confederacy. you don't get clearer than that. some people say that southern states should fly the confederate flag because of heritage, but if we flew every flag from the past why not fly the union jack in front of the white house. and for the record, you don't get to make the heritage argument, because the marx mark of the centennial civil war and coincidentally what the black started with civil rights n. 1961, it was a remind tore black people that they should know their place. it has always been used as a symbol of intimidation and terror. and in fact, the neo nazis often adopt the confederate flag in it's place. it's such a racist symbol that is does double duty as the blackup racist symbol for another racist symbol.

he referred to african-americans as the negro. he is asking marijuana enthusiasts in denver for money at the cannabis business summit. which rand is the real rand? john: they could be an argument that this is a false choice. both of these are the real rand. liberals will be horrified with bundy. he showed up at a meeting. then he took in backstage and spent 45 minutes with him. that is not great in terms of optics. liberals will love that he was hanging with potheads in denver. both of these arise out of libertarianism. one of the contentions in his campaign, is he a tea party guy or is he the left leaning -- i shouldn't say that. a guy who is acceptable to some on the slightly left side of the perspective because of his libertarianism. that tension between the tea party and the outreach he wants to make is going to be devil him throughout his candidacy. you can see that. al: the bigger contrast than bundy and the pot smokers was this is a guy who has gone to howard and ferguson and try to reach out to african-americans, and cliven

they argue, "the new york times" argues that like his brother, the indian, the negro will soon melts away in freedom. yet, the reason why many freed slaves were dying was not because of the pro-slave logic that they could not handle freedom or that they were becoming distinct like native americans, or something about their race that made them sick. it was that they were living in these camps where they had very little access to basic necessities. they were living in places where they were unable to actually find employment. one of the things that we have to think about is in some of these camps, the number of men -- the number of women and children outnumbered the number of men. so that the men would sometimes enlist in the army, work as construction workers or possibly soldiers, but what would happen to the women and children? they were left in these places like the mill, where they did not have access to the basic necessities. what people began to see was a disparity between white and black populations. now, where white people becoming ill as well? yes. many white people became sick

the cornerstone rests upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man.erior race is his condition. that is the confederacy. >> it doesn't get any clearer. and i hate to say it but i think people who are holding onto the confederate flag are holding on to that ideology also. they can't on the one say say everything about structural racism and history is in the past but then desperately came to a symbol of the same history. i saw an interesting solution on twitter before coming on. if someone peacefully has a matter of civil disobedience went up to take that flag down we would probably all raise probably the biggest kick starter campaign every for his or her bail money. it is long past time for that flag to come down. all the more poignant in the aftermath of what we saw at mother emanuel ame. >> this is a poll asking americans about the flag and that total 50/50 divide. your thoughts on that. >> again i'm from the south and as a kid. my brother's name is robert edward lee williams. that should tell you everything you need to know about my family. and my b

the new york times argued that like his brother the indian, the negroes will soon melt away. yet, the reason why many freed slaves were dying was not because of the proslavery logic that they couldn't handle freedom. it's not that they were becoming extinct like native americans. it's not that there is something about the race that made them sick. it is that they were living in these camps where they had very little access to basic necessities. they were living in places where they were unable to actually find employment. one of the things we have to think about is that in some of these camps, the number of men -- the number of colorado -- cholera in the 1850's. the discovery was made through the water supply that it was spreading. >> that is absolutely true. to answer the cholera part, there is a new understanding about disease causing issue as a result in efforts in london. what happens is that when cholera breaks out the central government is incredibly effective in stopping it's for the -- in stopping its spreading, in part because of his knowledge. when small parks-- on o

south, almost every white person has a small amount of racial awareness, simply because of the number of negros in this country. me and white friends would sometimes watch things that would make us think that blacks were the real racists and other elementary thoughts like this, but there was no real understanding behind it. the site also refers to the trayvon martin shooting and it says in part the event that truly awakened me was the trayvon martin case. i read the wikipedia article right away. i was unable to understand what the big deal was. it was obvious that zimmerman was in the right, but more importantly, this prompted me to type in the words "black on white crime" into google and i have never been the same since that day. this apparent manifesto ends by saying "i am not in the position to alone go into the ghetto and fight. i chose charleston because it is the most historic city in my state and at one time had the highest ratio of blacks to whites in the country. we have no skin heads, no kkk, no one doing anything but talking on the internet. well someone has to have the bravery to ta
