it is produced graduates like a supreme court justice thurgood marshall. that was 1925.graduates only half of its 900 students. tested one of them proficient in any state exam. douglas is not alone. 016, six baltimore did not have a single student proficient in any state testing. here's how it works. high school students are tested by the state in math and english. their scores place them in one of five categories. a four or five is considered proficient. one through three are not. 185 students took the state math test. 165 fell into the lowest level. just one student approached expectations and scored a three. >> is the school district at fault? >> i would not say this could district is at fault. >> janice ling is the executive director of teaching and learning at baltimore city schools. nothe school district takes responsibility for six schools that don't have any kids proficient? >> i don't think of saying we have no responsibility. i think it is a lot of things coming together at the same time. >> these six schools are getting extra resources, increased teacher and p

lawnt to thurgood marshall school and i had the privilege of having otis king as my professor. we learned a president can be impeached for his high crimes and misdemeanors, which is a political action. only the house of representatives has jurisdiction over the impeachment process. 435 members, each will have a vote. this impeachment is something that any member of the house can bring before the body. high crimes and misdemeanors. so these lawyers, a good many of them, tend to conflate criminal law, and the judicial aspect of the law, with the political aspect. in the house, we deal with the political side. if they want to get the president indicted for up traction of justice and want to use the judicial process, let them do it if they like to. but the political side in the the presidents, committed an impeachable act when he fired comey, went on national tv in prime time and indicated that he was thinking about the russian thing when he did it. the house of representatives can impeach the president for that. all of the investigations are great if you want to bring criminal cha

and as it turns out, thurgood marshall is represented by his fraternity dues card and simply by a quoteed on the brown v. board desegregation case of 1954. there's really nothing about him as a supreme court justice. justice clarence thomas is represented in a small display around the confirmation hearings and the charge by anita hill that led to a great deal of controversy. but then ultimately his confirmation and seating on the court. >> but some may argue they played a bigger role in american history, especially thurgood marshall. >> well, we know there are thousands of stories that we could have told in much greater detail. we simply can't include all those stories all at the same time. we've done our very best to find the kinds of stories that we think resonate with people, both the known and unknown stories. and so this is a living museum. just like our understanding of history changes, we reinterpret. we find new information. this is a conversation about what we will include in the museum in the future rather than looking at what we've already done in the past. >> a living museum

justice thurgood marshall said unless our children begin to learn together our people will never live together, we have to come and learn together but as we come together we cannot assume every child is the same and as a matter of fact someone much more brilliant than me, todd rose, researcher and professor at harvard, human beings don't line up perfectly, there is no average learner. he goes on in his book to really give us some examples that this idea of average is a false concept. if you take two people, he specifically gives an example how airline fighter jet cockpits were designed. if you take two people with different measurements and body mass and design for the average the end result is it will fit neither person. what happens as we think about the average learner, we know kids that have better memory, better auditory skills, stronger writing skills, language skills, relationship skills but education for too long we have taken the average of all of those and assumed it works for each kid. that is problematic and we are now in a place where we can change that. there is an oppor

give actually a bit of history, because naacp was actually responsible for the foundation of thurgood marshall high school high school, and it was at one time a public school in our city, sending more latino and african american students to college than any other high school in the city of san francisco, so to believe that these public schools haven't done it or can't do it, it is a lie. i also want to acknowledge the public comment earlier pointing out some of the funding behind these institutions that are pushing this privatized narrative in our district. i think that's just important to point out to be transparent about. follow the money, so when they're reading the report, but they are pushing an agenda that is counterproductive to what we believe is the actual work that needs to follow the results, just follow the money. i just want to point that out to everybody. this is not a political fight. when we wrote that article, i just came up for air for a second, because what i'm focused on is the work. i refuse to believe the students in our district can't achieve, and it highlights a point t

i talked about hbcus and raised that issue because that's important to me and the thurgood marshall fundht to the table. but i was surprised to see the lack of actual black republicans who have long been in the trenches, long been fighting for our people, but just on the republican side of the aisle. what i don't want people to think is that omarosa was black republican. she was the only person that could do and that was concerned about the community. there are many people out there, myself included, who are on the republican side who wanted to have access and who wanted to use this opportunity to do more for our community. >> it is difficult for me to imagine anybody who has worked in the white house who has this extraordinary opportunity, and the day after is pitching a book hinting you're going to have some big revelations you were concerned about while you were in your past job. why would anybody else hire you if that is the kind of person you are? >> well, anderson, i think we all know two paris' last point, she's a reality tv star who operated in this same vein on the reality shows
