I would hear stories from Reverend Jackson and others telling me about what they couldn't go to school at a certain place.
My parents were from the South.
I was born and raised in Brooklyn.
So I didn't have that experience, but I was told that experience.
And it was unimaginable to me, certain exclusion.
It is now happening in real time.
To block an elected official like Justin from going in a hearing that he was elected to do, that is...
at one level, bigotry, but at another level, you don't even believe in the tenets of the democratic process that you claim to believe in.
Because you're not letting an elected representative go in a hearing that he's supposed to be party to.
So all rationale is thrown out the window.
And the real patriots are the ones that stand up for what the country fought for and got to in some places, not the ones that are saying we're going back.
into the pre-1940 days
I think the only thing that will halt it is what halted it in the beginning, and that's mass movements united.
So when you had the Dr. King-led movement and SNCC and others, because it wasn't just Dr. King, but he's the one that had notoriety, they had partners.
in the Jewish community, Rabbi Abraham Heschel, in labor, Walter Ruther.
I think it's going to take that kind of movement.
That's why when Randy Weingarten of the American Federation of Teachers asked me, would we join in my organization, National Action Network, would No Kings March?
Yeah, and I marched with Robert De Niro right here in New York.
It's important we come out and show we are together.
and that we understand that all of us are under threat.
