francine: william jackson, will you buy companies with more attention to esg issues, to more diversitylly been a game changer for things like that? william: i think it has been a game changer, francine. these are no longer -- people used to describe these issues of, well, we are putting big butrt into it include esg, they are day to day business is now. it is really, really important, and it is important not just because it is the right thing to do, but it is important because i don't think people will want to buy businesses that don't well-developed policies in place because they are not making progress. it is a journey because a lot of companies have a long way to go. the important way to go is that you are on that journey. francine: thank you so much for joining us, william jackson, managing partner at bridge point. this is what the markets are focusing on. we broke the headline minutes ago saying that the u.s. has confirmed that the houston chinese consulate was closed. they give us a little bit more of a glimpse into what is happened. according to the u.s., it is because of intell

what would magine have happened had the honorable lewis, hosea williams, and jimmy lee jackson, those persons protested, jimmy lee jackson life.is reverend c.t. vivian was there the edmund pettus. if they confronted the police and met them with force, would i here today? i think not. i believe that peaceful protesters made it possible for good many members of congress to be here. not all of us are here because smart. we are here because others made great sacrifice so we would have these opportunities. here is is why i stand today to say that we can peacefully protest. be disruptive without being destructive. if you are being destructive, the cause. helping peaceful protest is the best protest. has made a difference for so many of us in so many ways. facilities grated because of peaceful protests. changed because of peaceful protests. persons have been the right to ote because of peaceful protests. peaceful protest is the best protest, and it's made a ifference in the lives of good many people in this country. those whoutely salute peacefully protest, and i do not ondone those who prot

he looks frankfort, or william oh douglas, robert jackson, harold burton and tom clark. and the minority, chief justin vincent voted -- justices stanley reid and sherman mint. and we're going to return to another earl argument. this is from one of the other clerks, his name is george, and an exchange between justices jackson and clark about their decision in this case. let's listen. >> after they announced the decision at that time, at the time clark sat on one side of jackson, probably on the left, and tom clark announced his concurrence and i don't remember whether he ruled the opinion or not. the jackson leaned over to him and whispered, i'm glad to see that you've decided to be a judge, tom. now jackson told me that. >> you reacted when you heard that. >> it was very interesting, yes. and of course jackson is talking about this from his own experience. he was an attorney general and roosevelt during which time he made some arguments very similar to those he is about to reject in this case. same thing happened in korematsu. and for jackson it was very important to rec

andrew jackson and william henry harrison, among others, still believed they were fighting the same battle that began in 1776. to conclude, when the so-called founders broadcast the stories they did, crying foul about british attempts to free the enslaved or arm natives, i don't think they expected those narratives to have the legs that they did. those stories didn't match up with many of their professed convictions. mentioned jefferson, rush, and payne. all of those men consider themselves anti-slavery. many of their fellow patriot leaders considered themselves opponents to slavery. so why didn't they do a better job? why is the revolution so complicated, so disappointing, so janus-faced? the revolutionaries could teach mankind about how to be happy but it certainly wasn't a glorious or completest revolution for all. we know that the union is partly to blame here. that union talk got in the way of freedom talk. congress' deletion of jefferson's stirring words about the slave trade in the declaration is a prime example of this. we share jefferson's pain as those words are struck out on the

as william douglas, came from the fcc, robert jackson served as attorney general, and i happen to believe, that that breath of experience was quite good for the court i think enlarged the personalities and enriched the debate. i think it's unfortunate that the confirmation process and the difficulties related to have tended to push presidents in recent years to appoint more professional judges. i don't say that to disparage them because they're quite care -- capable. i feel it creates a much narrower and less freethinking court. i think warren benefited from the breadth of experience of those justices. >> did you discover other cases in which the chief justice worked as hard and effectively as he did in brown to marshal his colleagues into a unanimous or less fractured position than otherwise would have been the case? >> yes. there are many cases where warren worked hard. brown i think is the one with the largest consequence in the sense that it is the one with the necessity to deliver an opinion that addressed not just legalities but the underlying moral question. there are throughout th

william douglas came from the s.e.c., jackson served as attorney general, and frankfurter had been a harvard law professor. i happen to believe that breadth of experience was quite good for the court. i think it enlarged the personalities of the court and enriched its debate. i think it's unfortunate that the confirmation process, i think, has, and the difficulties of the confirmation process, have tended to push presidents in recent years to appoint more professional judges who are quite capable, so i don't say that to disparage them individually, but it creates a narrower, less ambitious, and less free thinking court than the one that warren inherited. i think the warren court benefitted from the breadth of experiences of the justices, not just warren. who else? surely, i'm used to press conferences. >> did you discover other cases in which the chief justice worked as hard and effectively as he did in brown to marshal his colleagues into either a unanimous or less fractured position than might otherwise have been the case? >> there are many cases where warren worked hard to build h

. >> what do you make of the testimony yesterday by attorney general william barr when he was talking to congresswoman sheila jackson racism in the police department. he said i don't agree there is systemic racism in the police department. how do you interpret that? >> i interpret it as ignorance, frankly. i'm tired of it. saying there is systemic racism doesn't say that police departments all across america are overtly racist. i ran a police department. that's not the case. but when you have a situation time and time again where african-americans, no difference between using drugs or dealing drugs tend to get longer sentences. two people, black and white, gave them the same exact business credentials, same exact background, sent them into banks and they got dramatically different treatment. we are in a nation right now that has to come deal with the systemic racism that exists everywhere from our health care systems all the way to our criminal justice system. and for our head of or highest ranking law enforcement officer not to recognize what so many police officers, former fbi directors, big city police chiefs adm

williams will be with francine lacqua today. does any of this that you normally go out to jackson hole and pontificate on, does any of this mattermichael: not really. there's no potential growth to be measured at the moment, so the fed, like all central banks come are basically stuck at zero for the foreseeable future. which means even with the ecb and bank of japan meeting this week, don't expect any monetary policy moves. they are all about interest rates. interest rates are at zero. not much they can do. it is the fiscal authorities who matter right now. tom: what is so important is the idea of what will be the price for this. with all of your years of experience, what is the price out for the foreseeable future that we are all going to pay? michael: that is the hard thing to know. there was always a theory that people would change their spending habits because they would expect texas to go up if there is a big budget deficit -- expect taxes to go up if there was a big budget deficit. so far it is because of the pandemic. we don't know how much crowding we get because of love the deficit spending, so it is a real-time experim

william jones, the martin luther king school. i say jesse jackson's class.han those that did inside baseball democratic politics. all of us were united around voting rights and other issues like police brutality, like economic empowerment, just as then, we have people younger than us that are coming forward taking the reigns, doing it their way. if your ego gets out of the way, you do what you do and do it to the best of your ability and hope that those that come behind do what they do to the best of their ability. that's what john lewis would say to me. al, you do it your way. make sure it's effective. remain non-violent, remain determined. keep your eye on the prize. i'm honored that he spent time important to me. i tried to do that with those behind me. we see his body headed to that bridge, he goes as a rivictor. he won the battle. the battle in selma. they won that battle. we must make sure they don't turn the victory around by not having a civil rights act now. they are trying to take defeat out of the jaws of victory that john lewis won. it's not enou

jackson's casket from selma to montgomery. that was the original plan, and that plan gave way to what happened on march 7th, 1965, and john lewis and jose williamshat march. so that was a black lives matter march in memory of jimmy lee jackson. jimmy lee jackson giving his life for voting rights in selma, alabama, and to stand up against a fascist governor in the person of george wallace. as we talk about this, the church has a duty and i think it's taking on that responsibility to draw those parallels, to see how history is repeating itself. we can never stop. and i think the generation that john lewis has bequeathed his legacy to is doing the same thing and will do the same thing. let me just say one other thing. we'll see all the wonderful ceremonies over the course of the week, but we'll also see people there who are to this day still enemies of john lewis. if you don't pass a new veeotin rights act, you're an enemy of john lewis. if you're not going to release the money for states to come up to speed to have proper mail-in balloting by november, you're an enemy of john lewis. and it's also very timely that we are literally, tomorrow, when h

william barby. >> the riders kept going. this time, with federal guards. eventually, they made it to the dark heart of the south. jacksonssissippi. there, lewis and the others were arrested for breach of the peace and sent to mississippi's infamous parchment prison. >> it really was like going back into, you know, the antebellum plantation. it is plantation/prison. it was a rough experience. >> more students continued to join the freedom rides, and by the end of the summer, hundreds of those riders filled parchment and other mississippi jails. >> it bonded them. they said we went in there a hundred little movements on campuses. we came out one movement. >> that national movement was called the student nonviolent coordinating committee, or sncc. when the group's chairman resigned in the summer of 1963, the organization turned to john lewis. with his country accent and lack of formal education, some saw him as an unlikely choice. >> they needed a chairman who had fought, who had bled, who had been to jail, who had suffered through every indignity that they were then asking the people in the field to suffer through. >> the

williams, maybe a little jazz. kind of a mix. things that feel familiar. that is the kind of music that feels good to me right now. jacksoni definitely agree with you there. it sounds like you have a lot of great music choices. so, this one is a little more serious. in all of your time as a u.s. senator, you have cast many votes. out of all of those votes, what did you think has been the most critical and most important? sen. warren: oh, that's a good question. before i start, i do want to say how frustrating it has been to have mitch mcconnell calling the shots in the united states senate. so thatto vote him out we can make real change. that is what we've got to do. have been a lot of really important votes. the dream act, gun reform after sandy hook. but, there is one vote that really shows the power of democracy. and that was the vote to stop the republicans from repealing obamacare. it's why millions of people still have health care coverage today. jackson: well, thank you so much for casting that vote. i'm sure i speak for everyone on this call that obamacare is definitely one of the most critical pieces of legislati

about a law clerk by the name of william rehnquist, who, at his confirmation hearing in 1971 the issue came out that he had in fact written a descent for justice jackson in the brown case when it came before the war in court, and he set, and 71 that that was just -- they were just covering their bets, so to speak. he did not really feel that way. i just wondered if either of your guests have checked to see the veracity of justice rehnquist's comments at his confirmation some 20 years later. >> you summarized it very well. it was an important controversy. the memo was quite vivid. chief justice rehnquist and the law clerk said southerners do not like black people and they will never admit them. the truth is, i believe that plessy versus ferguson was good law. as you say, chief justice rehnquist, throughout his career had been writing in jackson's voice. jackson had asked him to express his own thoughts because he was undecided. we know that justice jackson's secretary disputed rehnquist's account and said that jackson had never asked for competing opinions to be written in his voice. according to her, rehnquist was expressing his own views. i think tha

williams and ms. boynton, they were beaten and teargasseded with others, because jimmy lee jackson had been killed.d james orange was put in jail for having that movement. they came to protest that, to defend people's right to vote. that's why there are those in the congress now saying that this new voting rights act should be named after john lewis, because they were there for a voting rights plan. not just to be a man. and i think that really, i don't want people to miss at this moment, and i think maya cummings referred to it. both he and elijah cummings were winners in their generation. they were older than me by 12, 15 years. they came at a time when it was improbable that they could end up doing what they did. and to think that john lewis went from where he started as a sharecropper's son in alabama to helping to elect the first black president, to think elijah cummings set the whole tone of what we're now dealing with in john bolton's book and other things as he shared that committee, they were victors. it's a challenge to those of us to come behind them and those behind us whether we can wi

william o. douglas. frank murphy and robert jackson. >> 7 of the 9 members with the exception of justice jackson and justice stone had been appointed by franklin roosevelt. they were the new deal justices. when roosevelt threatened to pack the court in the 1930s by adding new justices, he finally got his wish. he appointed a majority of the court. these were people who owed some kind of personal and institutional loyalty to the president. it's not that they were always going to vote for his policies or to uphold the laws that he supported but in this particular case during war time it is hard for anybody to stand up and do it. what would be the limitations of that. >> world war ii, does congress and the executives. >> yes. >> the second question, should it be upheld? >> yeah. >> that was a 6-3 decision. i want to read a little bit of justice hugo black's decision so you get the flavor of it. you noted in your book that it started out with a decrying of racism so how did it switch fill low sophicically? >> it switched because like many people, supreme court justices included, you can believe in one thing and
