>> ability to win an award as away to speak out against some of the inqualities of the black community is facing. now, duringhad the audacity to talk about any quality. we're going to showyou a part of her video.
roast coffee company milwaukee wi, >> oh, but some heaven forbidsome of the criticism of this movement. >> then you better have anestablished record of critique
of our oppression. if you haveno interest in equal rights for black people, then do not make suggestions to those who do.sitdown. >>equal rights, please tell memr. williams, what rights black people don't have. also, whitepeople we do have a record of critique of your oppression, doyou know how many of your ancestors fought in the civilwar to free your ancestors? bloodiest one the united stateshistory was over what was right, and it was white people fightingit. it was white southern
democrats who fought for, not against slavery. >> yes, it is the white peoplethat are helping other black people. without the whitepeople, the black people would be totally fucked. >> they also died for theprivilege of keeping black people as slaves. they thoughtit was so important that they be able to keep black people asproperty that they were willing to die for what they consideredto be not right. she says it is
mainly white people that findthe civil war to free the slaves. that is because blackpeople were enslaved. believe me, if you had given them weapons they probably wouldhave, but they couldn't because they were in chains, and some ofthose people who enslaved them were also your ancestors. butthat's not what jesse williams is talking about. if you thinkhe is trying to insult you and your beloved ancestors, he's nottalking about that. he's not talking about slavery from
hundreds of years ago. he issaying today, tamir rice got shot within two seconds. thenyou go make a reference to michael brown about people reaching for the gun, it wasinconvenient for you and the tamir rice case because he wasunarmed, they never gave him a chance, that's why you switchedit to a different thought pattern in a different case. >>that's why she thinks she'ssmart. let me clarify one thing to clarify her lack ofstatistics and facts in that
video. i don't know she believes what she says, i think she is acute girl who was angling for a specific market and she is speaking to a specific audienceand has done well for herself as a result. someone who isactually interested in the facts, who wants to be a journalist, researches and seeswhether there is any quality between the different communities. but it doesn'tserve her purpose. there is no
incentive for her to do that. ifshe actually did report the truth to the audience of the blaze it would not benefit herin any way. she is angling for a position at fox news, and itwill be very lucrative for her, she will fit right in. i don'tknow if she believes what she says, but her commentary was stupid. there were no factsbehind it and to talk about tamir rice as if he is some sortof crazy criminal, he was a 12-year-old boy playing with a
toy gun in a park in an opencarry state. a cop showed up and shot him within two seconds.that is not hyperbole, that is fact. that was shown in the video. you have the audacity toget mad at jesse williams for bringing up that case? does that 12-year-old life notmatter to you? apparently not. >> before you go into the facts,i just want to say two things. i am amused that you brought up the word journalist in the samesentence as the blaze. the part
that bothered me the most about that clip was tammy sayingoftentimes they are reaching for the gun, they are trying to get guns, like they had it coming.but tamir rice was a 12-year-old. if your 12-year-oldwhite kid had been murdered by a black guy, my guess is you would not be like well, what did hedo, maybe he had it coming? that is probably not going to be your reaction. let's keep itreal on that front.
let's give you the actualstatistics and facts. >> this argument that blackpeople have all the rights that white people do, there isabsolute evidence and data indicating that there is institutional racism and racialbias that plays a huge role in our justice system. we talked about it in great detail on thisshow on a regular basis. if you want to start at a very younglevel, black children make up 18% of the preschool populationbut represent almost all out of
school suspensions. this willnotion of black people being more violent than white people is also ridiculous. blackchildren are 18 times more likely to be sentenced as adultsthan white children and make up 60% of children and prisons, this is according to the apa. >> like the marijuana statisticswe have talked about, i don't want you to get the wrong impression, they do the sameacts at the same rate as white
people, they simply get ã±whether it is suspension or imprisonment, but they gettreated as adults at such an enormously high rate for the same crimes. if a white kid doesit, oh, come on it's just a kid. that's why we have the juvenile system and not the adult system.at the black kid does it, though, that is a dangerous kid.but you never see that because you are not black. in yourexperience, since you didn't experience it ã±
we prove it to you but you stillwant to close your eyes to it. >>let me give you some more.that statistic, black children are 18 times more likely to be tried as adults for the samecrime. but no, they have all the same rights. jesse williamsbringing up these issues is ridiculous and we need to ignore it. by the way, why are you soangry that someone is bringing up the injustices they areexperiencing in society? what does it take away from you? whydoes that make you so
uncomfortable? i'm white, i'mnot uncomfortable with it. i know that i want to fix it. welive in america where we are supposed to believe that everyone ã±. >> not one person here has evertaken racial bias personally. if we bring up a fact, john iadarola ã± they say where youbringing that up? and by the way there also ã± there is historicalcontext to what happened, and we need to help fix it. but the
people who react most ironicallyã± why do you get so bothering people talk about generic racialbias in all of society. it seems like you're taking it a little personally. >>let's talk about collegegraduates. in the workplace black college graduates aretwice as likely as whites to struggle to find jobs. thejobless rate for ã± a study found that people with black sounding names had to send out ã±we talked about the study.
>> you have a 50% lower chanceof even having an opportunity to get an interview if you have the black sounding names are. >>why are you bringing this up?don't you know about the civil war where white peoplethought to end slavery? >> that is not a law that youhave to make sure you don't give black people jobs. that is whywe talk about the implicit bias that a lot of society has, even if they don't know they have it.
we are not trying to blame them,we are trying to fix the situation. >>is a black person kills awhite person, they are twice as likely to receive the deathsentence as a white person who killed a black person. localprosecutors are much more likely to bring a case to felony murderif you are black, then if you are white. >>is at the contention thatblack people should be executed at a greater rate, for the samecrimes? can they really make
that argument with a straight face? if it's murder either way,make sure blocks get executed at a greater rate. is anyonelonesome enough to make that case? are they willing to behonest about their own positions and come out and say yes, we should imprison black kidsmore for the same crimes as white people do? go ahead and make the case. >> obviously when it comes tosentencing there is a huge
disparity. black people stay inprison longer than white people, for the same crimes, up to 20%longer than white people serving time for similar crimes. theyget much harsher sentences. more likely to be sentenced to deathand then white people for the same crimes. whites and blacks represent about half of themurder victims from year to year, but 77% of people who are executed ã± when only 13% ofdeath row executes ã± those are all statistics that look at the
bigger picture. then there arecases of anecdotal evidence that also drive you crazy. you have awhite stanford university student getting caught raping anunconscious woman in the back of a dumpster, and he gets six months in jail for it. then youhave someone like brian banks, accused of rape when he was 16,later the woman said she made it out ã± but here is whatprosecutors did and his defense attorney stated, they said o shit you are facing years inprison and you have an all-white
jury, so you need to take a plea deal. they pressured him to thepoint where he finally just decided to take a plea deal. heserved five years in prison for a crime he did not commit. andby the way, he spent a year in a juvenile detention center beforehis case even came up. what happened to a speedy trial?those are the cases that black individuals are talking about.if you did a little bit of research and focused on thefacts instead of your talking points that appeal to the bigotsthat watch her show, maybe you
would know that? but there is no incentive foryou to do that, you would be out of a job. >> for the stanford case, theysay that he was a young kid with a promising future. he was 22.banks was actually a young kid at the age of 16, he was a goodstudent, and was on his way to getting a scholarship. but hewas black, how promising could his future really be? let's tryhim as an adult and give him a lot more time. a goes on and on.lastly, this is endless.
>>stop and frisk, that'sanother example. >> over 90% of the time it isminorities that are stop and frisk. and then finally themarijuana one. blacks and whites to marijuana at the same rate.blocks are arrested at four times the rate. it doesn't have to be codified in law, it isoftentimes the racism that is practiced, and that is empiricalproved by data, and that is the bias that this society has thatwe try to point out. because we
are decent human beings we tryto fight a guest, where as you
think it is fantastic it should be defended. that is part ofwhat makes you not a terrific human being.
