and that's where thomas, frederick thomas got some more formal education. he went to a school for black youth, excuse me, that had been founded by northerners and built on the rudiments that he had acquired in mississippi. but that's also where the second tragedy hit the family. and frederick's father, louis, was murdered in a very brutal fashion in a way that i could describe to you in more detail, but that would be a spoiler, and i want you to read the book, so i think i'll leave those details out. and that marks the beginning of frederick's independent life which can be traced through four segments of his life later. and each of those segments is marked by a completely original move on his part. he broke the mold for black youth, for black americans with every step that he took. so in 1890 he decided to go north to seek employment inties. this was -- in cities. this was decades before the great migration began which really began only in earnest after the first world war when, first, hundreds of thousands and then millions of black americans sought opport

what do you make of justice thomas' comments there?appreciate his sensitivity from what he went through in the nomination hearings. but the fact of the matter is every african-american who stepped forward for major office at the presidential level and other office undergone excruciating scrutiny. look at what obama went through. they talked about his momma, his birthplace, his pastor and religion. wreligion. nobody else asked for their transcript -- >> laura: we haven't seen. we haven't seen his crypt. >> nobody else for anybody else's? >> have they been withheld -- >> no one asked for them. >> laura: you think -- >> why would you ask for it? other than him being african-american and the implication for affirm tv action -- >> laura: wait. i don't want to get hung up on that. but you are saying that the reason people want to know his grades in college and law school is because he is black? >> i'm saying -- >> laura: really? >> no white candidate has been asked that? >> laura: because i believe people release their transcripts and for th

>> is the point here less about the president, maybe what clarence thomas is saying, or is clarence thomas if you're a black republican, you can't get elected? >> that's exactly right. i don't think he was saying you can't get elected. he's saying there's a double standard. look, take it away from justice thomas and i disagree completely with my colleague, stephanie miller. i think anita hill was a fraud. having said that, i don't want to rehash that case. the point is that you look at colin powell, condoleezza rice, a litany of african-american conservatives or republicans that get called names such as porch monkey, uncle tom, house negro and guess what, they didn't use the term negro. they used something else, and get away with it. there's this double standard where, on the one hand, the establishment media allows these types of slanders to be asserted at black republicans and black conservatives and they all operate as a praetorian guard for people like president obama. >> if there was a liberal justice that was white that was appointed that hasn't said anything in 20 years on the court

thomas, good morning. >> mara, good morning. it's about to be dawn on day two of a new normal here in moore, oklahoma. a day where we expect to see more people returning to the remnants of their homes. yesterday we saw many people coming out trying to pick out the scattered pieces of their lives. just to find anything tangible they could take away with them. maybe a photo, maybe a baby blanket. many people left empty-handed and so many still shellshocked at what they had seen and survived. >> that is my neighbor's truck and that is my neighbor's car. and that car is one of the neighbor's cars somewhere down here. >> i kicked the door in just to save this one elderly lady in her grandkids and stuff. and she had just gotten inside the house when it hit. she was still in the living room. the whole living room was obliterated. >> thousands are displaced, but we still don't have solid numbers on just how many people have taken shelter at the american red cross. i had an opportunity to speak with one family who rode out the storm hudd

dot org their web site thomas welcome back to the program yes thanks for having us back to why did the residents of mora county want to take this step well it's been a two year battle and more county which is one of the poorest counties in the nation about five thousand people and they took those steps because they understand that fracking and other kinds of oil and gas extraction basically threatens their livelihood as an agricultural county threatens their water as well and so they took the extraordinary step of permanently banning oil and gas extraction within the county. what is any any indication what the response of the oil and gas industry is going to be i mean is there a lot of oil and gas there that these guys water was this more symbolic this is a place where there's not so much well there's been a boil and gas companies making noise there for the past three years and in fact have threatened the county officials there with the action the county didn't back off so we expect a lawsuit some point and i guess the point of that maneuver the point of the action of passing the ordin

i've never been a big clarence thomas fan. but the idea suggesting that ths reason obama essentially got elected was because he was theba kind of black guy that the rest of america felt comfortable with and the media and if it was a conservative black man, he wouldn't get elected. i think he takes away all of obama's very good political skills, which are enormous. >> what do you think? >> i think he's touching on something. i do. i think that if you look at the way historically, and i know he said not me, but he's the perfect example of how the media treats certain demographics that they feel belong squarely in their camp. and women is one. and if you look at the way that the media actually celebrated hillary clinton until barak obama came into the game, the media made a very conscious decision to say, you know what? we love the idea of the first female president, but we loveis the idea of a president obama more than a clinton. they actually single handedlyba became the glass ceiling that stopped her for sure.ei >> i think it'

i agree with clarence thomas on one hand. would see an african-american president in my lifetime. we're both southerners. but on the other hand, there was talk at one point about colin powell possible running, condoleezza rice. and clearly reverend jesse jackson paved the way for us to have this moment, african-american voter registration shot up over the last three decades. but clarence thomas is a sort of unique individual. he has a position in history as well as the second african-american to serve on the united states supreme court. let's hope that he's not the last african-american to serve on the court. >> i don't think he will be. >> he was pretty personal there. he voices a lot of what is a frustration that many conservatives have, which is that someone like barack obama when he was coming up, because he was seen as -- he was painted by the liberal media as more of a moderate, as more of a unifier whereas conservatives like him have been painted as divisive. that's the frustration coming out. but when you finally do t

not going to play so well now. >> absolutely right, thomas. the reason i don't think it plays so well is that unlike 2010 where they had roger ayles basically giving over the conservative media platform to really make sure that the republican party and the tea party had a platform to unite everybody around health care reform and basically going against it, roger ayles has said he's for immigration reform and path to citizenship and has had the network back off from this. i think it will be did i feel for cruz and the rest of the party to get that grassroots mobilization that's needed. i also think the republican party because of nor kwi, because of the cato institute, went out so fiercely against what the heritage foundation -- the fact it was going to have such a high price tag for immigration reform, i think you have those allies within the republican party saying, you know what, absent a comprehensive immigration reform we're basically going to have a la tino vote program. that's what the republican party is trying to avoid come 2014. >> th
