just like youk do, the past is such a valuable tool. on the one hand, people say this is a unique moment. unique characteristic but not a unique moment. someone goes to the sense of loss of enslavement or one looks at the lynchings that went on in the 20th century or destroyed the black town in tulsa, oklahoma, what you see is a constant struggle between democracy and fairness and discrimination and it -- and violence to enforce that. this is part of a long history and you and i could name so many names of bodies of people who are not here because they ran afoul of the criminal justice system and racism in this country. what i want people to understand is this is a moment where you are seeing things a little different. you are seeing not only a multiracial group of people protesting to help people understand this is not a black problem, it is an american problem. then, you are seeing, at least for me, the first time seeing police chief's, police officers, saying wait a minute, that was wrong. tipping pointd of where people come together

youk you appearing -- thank for appearing with us hourly on "surveillance." when i watched the video yesterday, it seemed it was almost 40 or 50 white people straggling after the president and he made after -- he made up his mind he was walking over to st. john's. those advisors of many different opinions at the white house, do they have his ear, or is he completely removed from his advisors? your point, i to think that if you -- part of reporting in this moment is, i think, looking at all of the ideology.bubbles of i think last night in particular, the conservative media landscape was increasingly theical of this moment of president. i would anticipate that that would continue this morning. because the one thing that people want right now is for also an be reform but immediate stop to the violence. i think that those shouts will continue until the president listens to them and this violence stops. kevin cirilli, thank you so much, and particularly for working your sources in washington this morning for our global audience. i put out on tweed -- on twitter, j

if youk, decades back, many republicans and even some liberals dismissed things like critical feminist theory and critical race theory at our universitiesit as harmless musis of a radical fringe. today, those theories are mainstream because good academics and administrators were just too weak or too afraid to push back. you really can't read "huckleberry finn" without reading that mark twain was a hopeless racist or even "macbeth" without being lectured about shakespeare's misogyny. guilt is foisted on liberals and conservatives ands alike the new bolsheviks. they are not protesters, they are new bolsheviks and they are eager to wipe away everything that came before them. and they want to force everyone else to beg for forgiveness. why would anyone be surprised that a statue of christopher columbus was pulled dow down ant a blazed, with another in st. paul tonight, or entire city blocks in seattle now look like mogadishu circa 1991, 1992? mayors, even corporate ceos,la are absolutely panicked, getting a case of the vapors, by what's happening in the street. and they are desperate, fall

youk each and every one of who has joined us for this town hall on living while black in america. >> thank you. we have many questions on policy and a host have come in. ast do you suggest we do future steps to ensure the tragic death of george floyd and others turns into a movement and not just a moment? that movement -- that question is open to the panel. >> i will briefly respond by saying i think it was ron the great political science professor and director for the science department at howard university who said the difference between a movement in a moment's sacrifice. -- and a moment is sacrifice. able tosomething to be translate into a movement that results in change, sacrifices required. i think what we have seen from the young people in america and others who have taken to the streets is that they recognize that sacrifice, in terms of their day to day lives and what they are giving up to raise their voices is important. to make sure those voices are heard at every level of government, city, state, federal, as tiffany laid out. the congressional black caucus to act.red we ha

there, but youk have got to be there when we pick up the line.issourie line from for those who do not wear a mask in public. caller: good morning. i live in a rural area and there is no need to be wearing a mask all the time. the one thing that really bothers me is 90% of the people who get this fully recover. we quarantined the wrong people when this started. if you have health problems, sure, you need to quarantine and stay away. leave the rest of us alone. if you want the virus to end, let it run its course. mother nature will take care of it. 98% of people recover from this. natureime to let mother take care of the problem and it will be gone. host: here is where we are on new cases in the united states. this is the seven day average reaching another peak yesterday. cases recorded yesterday and that was as of 8 p.m. a new record in the united states in a week in which we have been setting records. caller: well -- host: do you think that is running its course? caller: it is like anything else. 1917,t the spanish flu in 1918. it was gone and ne
