black america, white america america for years to come. it became known as bloody sunday, the day that demonstrators tried to march across the bridge in selma alabama. they were headed to montgomery, but they never made it to the end. they were met with tear gas and billy clubs. the world watched in horror. today, 50 years later civil rights leaders and politicians from across the country are gathering in selma. president obama will be on hand as marchers make that walk again found the edmund pettus bridge. you can see that the bridge stands today as it did 50 years ago. this time edmund pettus infamous for being a member of the kkk. gentlemen, thank you so much. president johnson ended his speech by saying we shall overcome. did we? >> yes in the sense that african-americans are able to vote in the south. not right away, but over time it has. and i think we have think it shows that we have an african-american president. >> randall pinkston? >> he has overcome the barriers in southern states to allowing african-americans to vote. in alabam

it took on some race sensitive topics starring chris hemsworth, as white america.ow watch his pants. >> empire has already taken black america by storm. but what about white america. we have got you cover. this week we introduce a new character. jim. >> hi everybody. anybody do any work around here. >> my goodness. who is going to be on empire this week. >> i cannot keep up. >> isn't j hud. >> and some other mega star. >> they have stars every week it is hard to keep up with them. >> hottest show on tv. >> there is only one episode left. i'll figure it out. sue, why don't we have a quit look at the the weather because we need to eat meat balls. it is national meat balls day. >> we will melt some snow with a high of 54 degrees. >> foam we will get some rain and snow melt and flooding with the rain. wednesday ape thursday looking great. great of the chance of wintry mix friday morning. we will see closer to the time. we have no more days with high temperatures in the the 20's. spring is a week from friday. >> yes. >> best news ever. >> yes. >> are you ready for this.

america had to change. my father always told me that white supremacy is a sickness.on't get angry at sick people you have to help them overcome their sickness. then when you compare skrim clark's ranting and raving and george wallace ranting and raving and martin luther king brilliant flourishs around freedom. >> 100 years from now historians will be calling this not the b generation but the generation of integration. >> you immediately wanted to be free with martin luther king. what has happened is that we have moved from racism toward a poverty. i would contend that the problems we are having now are more green problems than black and white. it takes different forums. it's probably as much or more economic than race now. and for the most part well educated upper middle class black people are doing fairly well, very well. poor people whether they be black or white or hispanic or asian or arab are being taken advantage of. we still got a way to go. but we know that if we remain open and honest with each other, if we are determined that we are going to reign in violen

white america was probably around was by birmingham because it witnessed the whole community of negroes facing terror and their talent to with just the center wrote courage to and from the rails of the democratic spirit the nation finally forced congress to write legislation in the hope that it would eradicate that stain in birmingham, the civil rights act of 1964 gave negroes somme part of their rightful dignity. with out the vote it was dignity without strength. the method of nonviolence resisted. was unsheathed and once again an entire community was mobilized to confront the atmosphere. and again the brutality of a dying order shirks across the land. yes selma alabama, became a shining moment in the conscience of man to the worst in american life -- the bench of american instincts rose passionate from across the nation to overcome it. the confrontation of good and evil compressed in the tiny community of selma jenne raided the massive power to turn the whole nation to a new goal. president johnson rate the praised the courage of the negro for weakening the conscience of the nation. o

>> oh, yeah but this time they'll put it in terms white america can understand. do you remember when angry old white people started the tea party? >> jon, of course,. >> black people are starting the c-party. no more taxation without representation. hands up, don't lose savings. black lives do matter! >> jon: black lives do matter? >> >> hey jessica. >> excuse me, sir, sir! >> what? >> is that woman bothering you? ( laughter ) ( applause ) >> are you talking about this black woman here? no, she's cool. >> jon: i think you need to get out of ferguson right now jessica. >> i can't jon. i didn't pay that fine from five minutes ago and now i've been boot gld oh, for god's sake. good luck, jessica. jessica willaims, everybody. we'll be right back! ( cheers and yeah we're on vacation next month, my family churns through all sorts of data. ll, now we have mobile share lue plans with rollover data the data you don't use this month rolls over to the next. sounds great. but what's your angle? i don't think i have any angles. hardball, huh? look, if you want me in on this, i

white america was profoundly aroused by birmingham because it witnessed the whole community of negro facing terror and brutality with her row it current. the nation finally forced congress to write legislation in the hope that it would eradicate the stain of birmingham. the civil rights act of 1964 gave negroes some part of their rightful dignity, but without the vote, it was dignity without -- once more, the method of nonviolent resistance was -- once again, a community was mobilized to confront the adversary. again, the brutality of a dying order strings across the land. selma, alabama, became a shining moment. if the words of american life lurked in dark streets it arose passionately. the concentration of good and evil compressed in the tiny community of selma generated the master power to turn the whole nation to a new course. president johnson rightly praised the kurds of the negro for awakening the conscience of a nation. on our part, we must pay our profound respects to the white american food cherished their democratic tradition -- white american tradition. from selma, back t

. >> hinojosa: but if there comes a time soon, then, when white america is a "minority," what does that mean? is that part of what is getting people so worked up, because that's just an image that's never existed for them? >> yes... um... i'm hesitating, maria, because our idea of whiteness is something rooted in the mid-20th century, so it's fairly recent. there used to be different white races. you could be considered white but belong to a superior or inferior white race. >> hinojosa: for example? >> saxon, superior. celtic, inferior. jewish, inferior. italian, inferior. anglo-saxon, superior. so that was... that was an idea of the late 19th and early 20th century. we've forgotten about that, so even in the 20th century there was this... not quite a sense of overweening white majority-- stress on the "overweening." so we're... it's... these classifications have always been fluid. they've always been changing, and it's only been useful to speak of this one great big white race in which all the white people are equal since about the second world war. >> hinojosa: you actually want peopl

th >>> >> much more was this racial -- was the person who -- this etiquette was a gift to white america. the way he bestowed the gift was a litterurgyliturgy. he was good at looking people in the eye who felt guilt and let them know they need not think of anymore because they were not racist. the invisible bridge is magic. specific examples. he is on the radio in 1975. he is not a governor and like a radio radio radio commentator. and he started a poll of black people in washington, d.c. and he said even more than the white people in washington, d.c. it is the black people who want the death penalty and who want sanctions and are afraid of black crime. if you say law and order is racist it turns out you are racist because you are against whites and blacks who want the tough stuff. and he of course is very famously told all sorts of stories that were fancy about his own life. he was an announcer in the '30s and fought for black people to play in baseball. it started are rules saying baseball is a game for caucasians but there is never a book that has been found thated said that. but the

. >> that pits him radically against the mainstream in white america. >> malcolm could speak in a way that resonated with people in those settings. >> there's nothing that the white man will ever do to bring about true, sincere citizenship, or civil rights recognition for black people in this country. nothing that they will ever do. they will always talk it, but they won't practice it. there's nothing more romantic than a spontaneous moment. so why pause to take a pill? and why stop what you're doing to find a bathroom? with cialis for daily use, you don't have to plan around either. it's the only daily tablet approved to treat erectile dysfunction so you can be ready anytime the moment is right. plus cialis treats the frustrating urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. side effects may include headache, up

i described in my book after the oj verdict when white america finally said that's it.denly blacks stopped being -- and treated like adults and you had all of this just flowering of intellectual and not just the one on the tv to harang us. they have brought us back into the 70s. >> hillary clinton. the whole email gate scandal. i haven't heard where you stand on this. does she think she is above the law? does she want to have a general feeling that the laws don't apply to her the way they apply to us? >> ifings listening to your previous guests and other guests on this topic on other stations and let's say everything they say is true which i do not think it is, just for purposes of argument nothing that hillary did was illegal didn't violate protocol. nothing about benghazi, all the emails she deleted just had to do with sea's wedding, let's say that true. hillary and her defenders say well, it was a mistake and if i had to do it over again i would have two phones. she did do it again, she has been through this before. she was the first lady of arkansas. she had was inv

white america had to elect him as well as were hispanic americans and asian americans and gay and straight americans. >> true. the leadership we sometimes think the leadership anoints him or herself and comes in and organize the troops. it's grassroots movements they invited these people. e.v. nixon in montgomery and the people in montgomery organized and then invited in this young minister, king. >> generally was what was happening, even in selma. invited in. >> this is your home state. >> this is alabama. >> yes. >> speak to me as a native son of alabama, what is going through your mind as you watch this scene unfold? >> i listen to the governor there. he said i have to see if it's changed enough for me to return on anything other than a visiting basis. but that aside, i mean as human beings, we are tied to the land. we really are. there is always a spot in your heart. i wish as the saying goes thomas wolfe, that i could go home again. [i am able to, it's because of general lee jackson. it's because of those people you have interviewed here i think that that really is the moment that the

i mean don, how absurd would it be if i looked at white americans and said white america, why aren't just voting for one party? you guys would all laugh me in the face right? so my party has some work to do in earning the vote as stephen a. smith said we have to ask for it. we are stupid because we just say, hey, i'm going to throw it to democrats, lock stock and barrel. you will not get any party to pay attention to you that way. >> this is writer karnt karen hunter. she said for those who are so emotionally and physically repulsed by what the republican party has become and the idea of registering as a republican would be akin to cutting off your right foot remember politics is not about emotion. it is about power. we have to stop being mad and upset and feeling neglected and overlooked and start using the ample power we have. and then crystal, she goes on to say that insanity is often defined as doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. it's crazy for blacks to continue to support a democratic party which has for half a century taken us for granted. w

years. 15% think the opposite is true and the rest say that relations between black america and white americatty much stayed the same, just unchanged. the president himself spoke to a satellite radio show this morning about exactly that, race relations in america, particularly with the ferguson police department report so fresh in our memories. >> you just saw the ferguson report come out. i don't think that is typical of what happens across the country, but it's not an isolated incident. i think that there are circumstances in which trust between communities and law enforcement have broken down. and individuals or entire departments may not have the training or the accountability to make sure that they are protecting and serving all people, and not just some. >> again, that interview was president obama's first reaction in public to that federal report that uncovered the systematic police abuse against the african-american community in ferguson, missouri. >>> coming up, it only takes one person, one person or more specifically one juror to save a person's life. and up next, the story behind

america is not a good country. that's right. that there is whitege. >> the other issue is media loves tallies -- tales backlash of terror. never worry about what can happen after they have gind up so much controversy. >> let's go to pot. >> of course. >> going to pot here in the u.s.a., ladies and gentlemen. i hold in my hand we will cece it on the screen of the list of states that enjoy marijuana usage the most. rhode island leads the. colorado, legal there washington state legal there. d.c. legal there oregon i think it's legal in oregon. i don't know if anybody knows but okay. alaska legal. vermont, montana maine, massachusetts. all of these places have one thing in common mcguirk, what is it. >> they lead the nation in pot use. >> bad weather in the winter. >> okay. >> bad weather. >> new england, d.c. and the west. >> not one sunshine state in here. >> there are no southern states. none of the states that are high in obesity, for example which throws out that whole munchy canard. the only two red states republican states are montana and alaska

he then begins issuing statements designed to a chair -- a sure white america that if he acts, it will be out of necessity, not humanitarian sympathy. he is that fearful about white public opposition. especially with elections approaching. douglass at first tolerates this campaign of disinformation, but not for long. ultimately, lincoln's words enrage him again. lincoln: my paramount object is to save the union. it is not to save or destroy slavery. if i can save the union without freeing any slaves, i would do it. if i could save it by freeing all the slaves, i would do it. and, if i could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, i would also do that. i have here stated my purpose according to my view of official duty. and i intend no modification of my often expressed personal wish that all men, everywhere, could be free. douglass: it is true the president lays down his propositions with many qualifications, some of which are unnecessary, unjust, and wholly unwise. there are also spots on the sun. a blind men could see were the president's heart is. i read the spaces as well

get a deal with folks who want us dead iranians heard chanting death to america at a rally for the ayatollah, so should the white house still be playing let's make a deal with them? . >>> crowds in iran said to be chanting death to america, but yet the white house is still wheeling and dealing on nukes with them. yet again the administration failing to recognize the enemy and that can be costly. >> absolutely it's going to be costly. look, when iran's supreme leader says death to america we should believe him. iran is one of the most active state sponsors of terrorism. iran has worked with our enemies to kill americans and kill our allies. we are in desperate need of sleerd hip on the world stage. oom has pointed to yemen as the beacon of its counterterrorism policies, we are on the verge of a full scale boxy war against iran and states. president obama's ignorance and his determination to cement his foreign policy record is blinding him in his negotiations with iran. >> wayne, for me i don't know if the leader of the country i'm negotiating with says death o to your country i kind of get up and walk away. we'll

america? >> i have to search my mind and be able to understand those whites who harbor that hate.why is it that they hate us? i know that we did not decide which race we were going to be born in. we did not decide which country, we did not decide the times and we will not decide the time we want to die. i could have been born white. i could have been born in rural georgia or alabama. i have to look into the soul and heart of the mind of these people who behave that way towards us. then i have to say, what does it take to bring about changes. i have embraced nonviolence what martin luther king taught it we have to shortt. we have to show them how to love one another. we have to teach people to love one another. we have seen this kind of hatred. we have seen the results of it. we say to the silent majority of people who stand by and do nothing but when we see injustice towards one person it's a threat to all of us. we have to see ourselves as being affected by these kinds of conditions that exist. we have to stand up against that hatred. they have to see the hatred will not succeed

tty/v >>> back now with more from april ryan and her book "my president's view of black and white, race in america." you had a good rapport with president bush. a lot of people might be surprised at that but you interviewed him as many times as you did barack obama. >> it was pretty shocking. my father told me, when he became president, you better watch him, you better watch him. >> meanwhile, there is a picture of you and your dad and president bush in here just smiling, as happy as can be. >> and with my kids. but when he came in he set a different tone. he was not bill clinton, and my father from the old school he has scars from way back in the civil rights era, he says you have to be careful. at that time we were so as a country, used to bill clinton welcoming african-americans, bringing them in and we didn't hear about that with george w. bush. so my father as the father of a journalist just be careful, honey, i want you to keep your job. but president bush and i had many conversations about race. and the bush that you saw on television was not the bush that i talked to. and that was the inte

white southerners would have to change their minds about slavery and the meaning of america.ident who ate in his own second inaugural address -- lincoln did so to suggest a divine mercy that he knows is none too apparent in the midst of the war's devastation. four years of blood and treasure lost in the civil war -- as bad as that appears would fall short of a full reckoning if god were to take the nation fully to task for its 250 years of exploiting black people. by supposing the war was god's punishment for the entirety of slavery's existence on american soil, lincoln made this divine chastisement look lenient compared with the enormity of the slavery existence on american soil for a quarter millennium. if the war were to cease after only four years, americans would actually be getting off easy. if the believers in a living god accepted god's judgment and his mercy for the sin of slavery they should be willing to extend charity to each other at the war's end. with the nation -- what the nation most needed was sorely lacked. what began with charity soon gave way to malice as

unintended sim tree in what took place here 50 years ago when the divide between black america and white americaould be denied no longer. sunday, march 7th 1965 voting rights activists learned some 600 marchers out of selma bound for the state capitol in montgomery. the march was inspired by the shooting of a young civil rights worker jimmy lee jackson. >> this is an unlawful assembly, your order to disperse or go to your church. this march will not continue. >> osgood: they made it only to the edmund pettus bridge where authorities set upon them. the violence that have bloody sunday was broadcast across the nation. martin luther king, junior came to selma soon after and completed the march. young cbs news reporter bill plante was there. >> they have six miles to go on the four lane highway then they hit the two-lane highway for another eight miles today. >> osgood: with thousands behind them plante managed to speak with king. >> all activities of the past week in selma come to fruition now, is this the grand climax? >> i would say this and its culmination in the march on the capital on thursday

azealia banks declared she hates america and fat white people. azealia banks is a multi-millionaire off the system she trashs. therefore i named azealia banks my fool of the week. well that didn't sit well with the rapper she tweeted that i'm the problem and just because i'm white to get i don't get and it i'm biased and can't see that capitalism and white privilege is holding blacks back from success. this attack on she is ridiculous and riddled with holes, we, azalea i do understand black unemployment and poverty levels are far higher than for whites and i hope believe that we should never forget slavery legal segregation and ongoing stereotyping that leads to racial bias and, yes, it's true i'm a free market advocate but the free market is color-blind it doesn't see black or white the only color it recognizes is green. by the way, yourself professed hatred for america is far for damaging to black opportunity than me calling you a fool. african-american entertainers like yourself who make bank on the divisive race rhetoric are a far bigger prob

my mom told me raising us that she was in constant combat against the images that white america would to offer me positive images of what it means to be a woman and so you know -- go ahead. >> the gift that you gave to my daughter, my baby when she was born, was a stack of books. all of them kind of little black girl books in which the little black girl at the center of it. you're a mom yourself of a daughter. i wonder -- it seemed to me clearly you were signaling this is important. >> part of it is because i'm an english professor, and so we're talking about cinderella and, you know, my daughter is 2 1/2 so she's not going to see cinderella but i'm adamantly against cinder relella even with the brandy version because i don't see what the point is. there's an essay about cinderella's step-sisters and what does it mean to have these girls that are indoctrinated for hating another girl. i think that would be an interesting film. the current version isn't so different from apparently even more regressive than the original version. >> the director claims that he made adjustments like havi

[laughter] andrew: and all we need -- i mean, what washington carver change the self -- george washington carver changed to the south with a new crop, peanuts. we have a new crop. it is the people that helped us in the march from selma to montgomery, the landowners. children went to ferguson but these people are still there and have land but they do not have the energy or crops to do it. we have a crop that we can introduce for free across the south and the department of agriculture will agree to help the farmers have microloans to revive farms. we are getting veterans across the south who are coming back home to own the trucki

threats and of course, to continue to strengthen the bond between israel and america. >> mike viqueria, al jazeera the white house. >> most of the current tension between u.s. and israeli leaders boils down to one man: benjamin netanyahu. he is a polarizing politician who caught his cloth here in america as a successful businessman before going back to israel and ultimately leading its government. siding with congressional republicans against president obama on iran policy helped garner him votes in the israeli election. mary snow has this report. >> reporter: in the wake of benjamin netanyahu's controversial comments during the election campaign president obama says the u.s. is now reassessing its approach to middle east diplomacy. it's just the latest fraying of a relationship that saw tensions escalate weeks ago when netanyahu accepted an invitation from washington by the republican led congress. it was his chance to criticize the administration's nuclear negotiations with iran. his speech was described as patriotic in tone and he spoke to an audience he knows well. while he spent his childhood in israel

need to talk about how the history of discrimination in general is encoded in the dna of white frats in americathout discrimination fraternities don't exist. because that's the entire concept of it. you're other-izing folks who are not in the organization. that's how you create any kind of abstract idea of membership. we need to get to the root of that idea and i think mr. ross is right. these are symptoms of a deeper problem. it's a deeper problem in society, but on college campuses fraternities by and large, are a corrosive influence that are exacerbateing and mp plaifying problems that already exist in the culture. >> more checks and balances needed to you think? >> more checks and balances and to be fair. i don't like to give a general sweep to all fraternities and is a report is. all recognize they're better by having diversity within their ranks. it's whether or not they're able to enforce it and actually translate that into a new set of dna as my colleague was talking about. he's absolutely right. in 1947 david emory was the head of the umbrella organization for all white fraternities an

the real fat meat of america are these racist conservative white people who live on their farms. those little teenage girls that work at kmart and have a racist grandma that, is really america. she's a charmer. ryan killmeade is with me. >> james rosen just called. she's a fascinating person. >> why wasn't dick cha cheney on the cover? >> i'm not sure. when you gave me this assignment i'm doing this thing called research. people reach to me in the industry and in the building. so i watched two 45-minute interviews with her. and she is angry. and unlike alec baldwin who says if they believe in the country didn't, when she has enough money she's gone. she's out of here. she is angry at the country. >> she goes on to say -- she talks about how -- she wants reparations for slavery. >> $7. >> my little white fans will be like why do you want reparation for work you didn't do you? got handed down your grandfather's estate and you got to keep your grandmother's diamonds and pearls and she says a bad word. >> she says a lot of them. >> and she broke into tears twice in 20 minutes because

of a young, unarmed african-american man killed by the police, maybe justifiable and maybe not, white america talks about the incident. what does the grand jury do? the black community talks about the history. it's the history that matters. we have to bring that into the conversation constructively. that is the imperative of the day. >> we will turn now to questions from our panel. i will be calling on people in the order in which they indicated they wanted to raise questions. i am starting with brittany followed by sue. >> thank you so much for your testimony. i have two questions. the first is for dr. nagen. i am a pastor's kid and taught wherever your treasure is stored that is where your heart is. and translated to the work i do in operations and systems whatever we measure that is what we value. my question is around this idea of measuring crime prevention. i want to know how we can viably measure crime prevention in a way that doesn't support predatory and broken window and i want to know how we can viably policing issues that led to stop and frisk and aggressive traffic stops i see in

latinos, others see the future and see their role and their place in this society, and how much of white americak at the data on this jose mainstream america doesn't see race as essential problem, don't see police brutality as a problem. unfortunately, it is communities that suffer most from it shall that's black, brown, poor communities, the communities confronted with state sanctioned violence on a regular basis that are making the clarion call. what we have to do as americans is pay attention to data not get caught up in media coverage of the big cases and understand the systemic nature of police brutality. we have to have radical reordering how we train police how we train them to interface with communities, charged with protecting and serving. until we start there, we're not going to be addressing problems at hand. >> and not just police brutality, also just racism. look at this incident of racism at university of oklahoma. >> i saw the video. >> these educated students are singing and talking about the most vile and vulgar horrendous horrendouslyhorrendous horrendously racist things you co

but he was a person who -- this racial etiquette was his grift gift to white america, and the way he bestowed the gifts what i call a lit temperature -- liturgy of abc luigs -- an solution, that white people need not think of it anymore because they were not racist. the invisible bridge. it's magic. and -- but give some specific examples, on the radio in 1975. no governor anymore, like a radio commentator, and he cites a poll he never says where he got the poll that of black people in washington, dc. and he says, even more than the white people in washington, dc, it's the black people who want the death penalty, who want bigger criminal satisfactions, who are afraid of black crime. so if you say that calling for law and order is racist it turns out you're racist because you're not only against whites, your against blacks who want this tough stuff. and he of course very famously told all sorts of stories that turned out to be quite fanciful about this open racial innocence. when he was a baseball announcer he fought for integration even though he had achieved integration in baseball, e
