The Hair Radio Show with Kerry Hines
Magi Helena Unpacks the Astounding Astrology of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Right. You're listening to the all -new hair radio morning show, and we are on the line with the amazing Mae -Jai Halina. Good morning, Halina. Good morning. Good morning, Kerry. It's so great to be here today. Yes, awesome. Well, listen, I want to kind of jump right on in when we talk about astrology, and I love the introduction that you gave about understanding astrology. Would you be kind enough just to share one last time, just kind of bring everybody up to speed on what we think of when we say astrology or what we should think of? Okay. Well, the very basics or the basic premise is that the positions of planets in the sky make various mathematical relationships to planets on any particular day. If we sort of had a map of the sky on a day, let's call it your birthday, Kerry. If it was your birthday, there'd be sort of a map of the planets on that day. And then if we were going to look at what's going on in your astrology for today, we would look at the relationships between the planets in the sky today and the planets on the day of your birth. And the type of astrology I do, Kerry, it's the only type of astrology that's actually based on scientific and statistical research. It's not based on belief systems. So our way of interpretation and understanding has been validated or verified by research. Love it, love it. Well, listen, one of the big reasons that we wanted to have you on the Head Radio Morning Show at this time is because we are forever honoring the legacy of the one and only Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. And I was hoping that you could take a look at, you know, and kind of, you know, give your ideas on any kind of chart or anything that you wanted to share. What would you like to say today, Alina? Well, I'd love to speak a little bit to Dr. King's incredible astrological birth chart. I mean, when you do look at birth charts from the perspective of scientific astrology, they're very, very clear. But everyone while has gifts in their birth chart, big gifts from God, we all also have some challenges. And not all of us are able to live up to all of our gifts for various reasons. You know, life isn't easy. And what's so amazing to me, one of the many things that's so amazing to me about Dr. King's chart is how beautifully he was able to live up to all of his gifts and face down his challenges. This was a man who did God's work in the world. And he was able to do that through the gifts in his chart and then the personal discipline and the personal honor and the personal integrity that he had as a human being. So when I look at his chart, one of the first things I see is how gifted he was as a speaker, obviously. He was immensely talented, and he had a hunger to communicate his ideas. The way I would express some of this stuff, I would talk about planets rather than talking about zodiac signs, because we don't use zodiac signs in scientific astrology. They just haven't proven to work well enough. But what I'm talking about here with Dr. King's chart, one of the things is I'm going to say a bunch of stuff because it's not going to make a whole lot of sense unless you're a student of astrology, but he's got an amazing iron butterfly of Sun, Saturn, Ixion. Ixion's a planet way out there past Pluto in what's called the Kuiper Belt. And then he's got a Jupiter midpoint and Midas at the fourth corner of this iron butterfly. And people that have complicated and symmetrical geometric shapes in their charts, these are the people that really have the most powerful gifts. And Dr. King's chart is just full of what we call planetary geometry. And you can cherry pick almost anything and see this. You see his dedication to humanity, to all kinds of folks in all kinds of situations. You see his hunger to bring in a better world. And you see that while he was angry, he channeled the anger into trying to actually do things that could work. He channeled the anger into talk of peace and nonviolent protest. I mean, I am so moved by what this man did and what he was able to take, the raw material that God gave him, and the way he was able to use that raw material to make such an incredible contribution to the world.

It is Wednesday, August 30th, 2023. My name is Julie Hartman. I am the host of the Dennis and Julie show, or I should say the co -host of Dennis and Julie, alongside Dennis Prager. That premieres every Monday on the Salem News Channel. I am also the host of my own three times weekly show, Timeless with Julie Hartman, which is on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays on the Salem News Channel. You can also catch those two shows, Dennis and Julie and Timeless, on the Julie Hartman YouTube page, and of course, you can download them on Apple and Spotify. It is great to be with you. To begin this morning, we're going to talk about a 12 -year -old Colorado student, who on Monday was kicked out of class for having a Gadsden flag patch on his backpack. For those who don't know what that is, the Gadsden flag patch, it is the don't tread on me flag that sometimes you see flying around the United States. According to the school district, which kicked this child out of class, that Gadsden flag is only flown in Trump 2020 flag flying white supremacist neighborhoods, which is obviously a lie, and not to mention insulting. This story, I think, provides a pretty apt synopsis of the state of American education for two reasons. First, the teacher who kicked this boy out of class falsely said that the Gadsden patch had, quote, origins with slavery. That is not true. This patch was actually made in the 1770s during the American Revolution, and the slogan don't tread on me was intended to be a message to the British that the American colonists who were rebelling against their rule were no longer going to put up with the British treading on them. That is the first thing that reveals the state of American education because it is very common nowadays for the content in schools to be taught incorrectly. Then the second reason why it says kind of everything you need to know about the state of our country's school system is that in addition to teaching the wrong content, students are being politically persecuted. There was another story in Massachusetts just about three or four months ago where a young 12 -year -old boy, Liam Morrison, was also sent home from school because he dared to wear a t -shirt that said there are only two genders. This is an ever -growing phenomenon in our country, but let's go here to this article I'm reading from American Greatness. On Monday, so two days ago, very recent, a Colorado Springs charter school removed a middle school student from class for having a Gadsden flag patch on his backpack, alleging falsely that the patch had origins with slavery. A video circulating on X features a Vanguard school administrator explaining to 12 -year -old Jaden and his mother why the boy was pulled from class. The confrontation has gone viral, and due to negative publicity, this is great news, the boy was allowed to have the patch in place when he returned to school on Tuesday. That is totally the right strategy. What happened is that Jaden and his mother were so outraged by Jaden being sent home from school that they went public with this clip. They were on Sean Hannity on Fox News. I believe that they also spoke with Tucker Carlson, or at the very least, Tucker Carlson covered this story. That is the right approach. When something insane happens, whether it's in your child's school or in your workplace, you have to go public with it. That is the only way that we are going to expose the rot of wokeism and try to get it unraveled. This past Monday, in addition to being the day that 12 -year -old Jaden was sent home from school, also marked the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington, where Martin Luther King Jr. delivered the famous I Have a Dream speech. In addition to Martin Luther King's great activism, nonviolent activism, the thing that ended the racist Jim Crow laws in the South was the fact that Americans were seeing the discrimination against black people on their televisions. The start of cable TV, or at least the popularity of cable TV in the 50s and 60s in contributing to the civil rights movement cannot be underestimated. It is because people started taking video of black people in the South being hosed down by police officers, having dogs unleashed on them. And in the court of public opinion, the Jim Crow laws and other racist measures that were present in the South no longer became acceptable because people were seeing with their own eyes how disgusting it was. That is what we need to do now in this arguably new civil rights era in our country. We need to go public, show video, send audio of a teacher berating a student. So I just thought that was interesting that on the same day that this child was sent home was the same day that Martin Luther King delivered that speech. Similar lessons can be gleaned from both of those experiences. Continuing from American greatness, this is a quote from the school administrator. The reason that we do not want the flag, the reason that we do not want the flag displayed is due to its origins with slavery and the slave trade. The Gadsden flag, the surprised mother responded to which the administrator replied the don't tread on me flag. The mother asked what would happen if Jayden removed the patch and the staffer answered flatly the bag can't go back if it's got the patch on it because we can't have that in and around other kids. They're talking about this patch like it has cooties, like if you get within five feet of it, you are going to get a highly contagious deadly flu. We can't have this around other children. Lest they get infected with the imaginary bigotry of the Gadsden flag patch, the mother shot back. Yeah, it has nothing to do with slavery, I love this. The mother is teaching the teacher. That's like the Revolutionary War patch that was displayed when we were fighting the British. Thank you Jayden's mother for teaching basic elementary history to an elementary school teacher. The administrator responded, I am here to enforce the policy that was provided by the district. This is such cowardice. It's not me who's doing this, even though I'm the one who sent the child home. It's a policy. I'm just hiding behind the policy. The mother and son pointed out that other Vanguard kids, Vanguard is the school in Colorado, are allowed to have other various patches on their backpacks. That's exactly right. I bet that there are students at that school who have come in with Black Lives Matter patches or pride patches or even t -shirts with those symbols. Why is that okay? Arguably Black Lives Matter, not just arguably, I mean it's pretty evident, Black Lives Matter is far more offensive of a flag than the Gadsden flag. Black Lives Matter is a Marxist organization which advocated for uprooting the Western prescribed notions of the nuclear family. The Black Lives Matter organization has accumulated billions and billions and billions of dollars that has gone absolutely nowhere to places that would actually help black people. They purported to raise this money for bail funds and for scholarships and for public school funding. What we have found out is that it has actually gone into the pockets of the founders so that they could buy $6 million mansions here in Los Angeles. Those billions of dollars were also used to, actually they were used for bail funds, but they were used to bail out violent rioters who set buildings aflame. Those riots in 2020 killed 25 people, many of whom were black. But the Black Lives Matter flag is okay. I bet you there would be no issue, but the Gadsden flag, oh yes, that is bigotry. How about the pride flag? You know, pride no longer represents tolerance of those with different sexual identification. It a represents movement that seeks to condone the genital mutilation of young children in the name of so -called gender affirming care. Is that offensive? Would that flag be allowed in schools? I bet you it would. 1 -8 Prager, 776 -1877 -243 -777 -6. Back in a moment. Precious metals, it's imperative that you buy from a trustworthy and transparent dealer that protects your best interests. So many companies use gimmicks to take advantage of inexperienced gold and silver buyers. Be cautious of brokers offering free gold and silver or brokers that want to sell you overpriced collectible coins claiming they appreciate more than gold and silver.

Triple G has notified me that we actually have a clip of this recording of the administrator telling 12 -year -old Jaden, the Colorado student, that he could not wear the Gadsden flag patch on his backpack. I just want to play a minute of the video for you so that you can hear this. And for those of you who are watching the show on the Salem News Channel, you will see that this boy is so polite. He's clean cut. He has a nice shirt on and he's sitting there, you know, with his hands clasped together and he's just nodding and taking it in, incredibly dignified and polite. He didn't say anything like, come on, this is ridiculous. What the heck is going on here? He handled that with such class. His mother should be proud. Let's hear a minute of this clip. Thank you. Do they know what the Gadsden flag is? It's a historical flag. So there, the reason that they do not want the flag, the reason we do not want the flag is due to its origins with slavery and slave trade. That is what was, that's the reason behind the Gadsden flag. The don't tread on me, which is the Gadsden flag. Okay, so he, what's going to happen if he doesn't take it all? He, I mean, he is able to go, I was actually just telling him, like, I was upset that he was missing so much school. I'm like, ah! So I asked him, can he just take his stuff out of his bag and go back to class? Like, I just want him to go back to class. The bag can't go back. It's got a patch on it, because we can't have that in and around other kids. So that's what I was trying, and then he said you were close, so I was like, oh, okay. It's amazing that this administrator is saying, you know, I hate that he's missing school. He's missing school because of you, my friend, or not my friend, my enemy. All right, reading continuing from American Greatness, the head of the school told Jaden's mother that the patch was, quote, disruptive to the classroom environment, and that the boy was welcome to return to class on Tuesday, but only if he removed the patch, okay? Because of its creator's history and because it is commonly flown alongside Trump 2020 flags, the Confederate battle flag, and other white supremacist flags, some may now see the Don't Tread On Me flag as a symbol of intolerance and hate or even racism. Oh, gosh. We could spend the entire three hours on that quote. Okay, so many lies in that one sentence. But they're saying that Trump 2020 flags are white supremacist flags. How is that not political persecution? So half this country are white supremacists, really? And then I love this line here. Some may see it as a symbol of intolerance, hate, or even racism. Welcome to the tyranny of the minority. If one person is made to feel uncomfortable by that flag, the entire school has to go along with that person's preferences. This child has to be sent home. As the administrator said, he loses out on learning because this one person may, in a hypothetical world, be uncomfortable. So this is interesting because let's look at these four adjectives that were used to describe this patch, disruptive, intolerant, hateful, and racist. We live in a world where there is such a profound assault on truth. And what comes alongside that assault on truth is an assault on the objective meaning of words, because that's basically another way of saying the truth, that words hold a objective, truthful meaning. You know, when people say, well, what's the harm of calling a man a woman or a woman a man? What's the harm of saying words are violent? This is the harm, because when words lose their objective meaning, the rules and the standards that are associated with those words also lose their objective meaning, and then all havoc breaks loose. There is this standard in American public education. It was established in a Supreme Court case in 1969. The case is called Tinker versus Des Moines, Iowa School District. And it dealt with the fact that students came to class wearing Vietnam War or anti -Vietnam War wristbands, and they were asked to remove those wristbands. And this case went all the way up to the Supreme Court, and the court established what's called the Tinker standard of regulating speech in schools, because they had to balance the fact that sometimes it is necessary and even good to regulate speech in schools for disciplinary reasons, but also respecting the fact that students have First Amendment rights. So they established this standard, which essentially says that students have a right to express political speech, wear shirts, wear backpack stickers, wear wristbands. As long as that speech is not disruptive to the classroom and does not infringe on the rights of other students to learn. So here we see that this school district in Colorado is saying that Jaden's backpack patch is disruptive. And so if we are now calling a backpack patch disruptive, then it means that they can lawfully tell Jaden to go home and get rid of it, because the Tinker standard says that they have a right to censor speech that is disruptive. Once the objective meaning of words change, then that paves the way for the objective meaning of rules and standards associated with those rules to change. Another story that we will cover in this hour is this Spanish soccer league craziness where the head, I believe it was, of the Spanish soccer league went up and kissed one of the female players after the Spanish female soccer team won the World Cup. This kiss, which by the way I do not condone, you shouldn't kiss someone if it is unwanted or without their consent, but this kiss is now being called sexual assault. And this man who planted the unwanted kiss on the female soccer player is under criminal investigation for sexual assault, which in Spain, as in the United States, carries prison time as a potential punishment. Another perfect example of the way that if we change words, then we change the laws associated with those words. Because now if a kiss is called sexual assault, then you can be prosecuted or brought to trial for alleged sexual assault if you kiss someone. This is very scary. That is why conservatives make such a fuss when words are used improperly, because it leads to a slippery slope. And by the way, this is going to affect all of us. There are going to be many people, we're already seeing it happen, who are going to be fired from their jobs or sent home from school for supposedly being disruptive or racist when they're not. We have calls. We'll take them in the next segment. 1 -8 Prager 776 -1877 -243 -7776. I'm eager to hear your reactions. Back in a moment.

We are discussing the fact that this 12 -year -old boy in Colorado was sent home from school on Monday for wearing a Don't Tread On Me patch on his backpack. The school said that he had to remove it. In order to return to school, he and his mother went public with a recording of the administrator admonishing him. And the public outrage over this incident led to the school allowing Jaden to come back with the patch on his backpack. I should also note that the school announced that they would be canceling Parents Night due to quote, unforeseen circumstances. Clearly, they do not want to face some questions about this incident. Let's go to Steve in Chicago, Illinois. Hi, Steve. Thanks for calling in. Yeah, Julie, thanks a lot. So, here's where I'm going to part company with you, okay? Whatever happened at School of Colorado sounds ridiculous, okay? But you beat it like a dead horse a thousand times to make it sound as if this is commonplace. You talk about transgender issues, and Dennis Prager does it nonstop. And what you do, and the way to deceive people, okay, which is what I think you and Dennis do, is to omit from your discussions and your narrative other information that would make what you're saying completely false, okay? What is that information that we are omitting? Well, I'll tell you. I'll tell you. You guys beat this transgender drum like they are going to take over the world and destroy civilization. The fact is - When have we ever said those words? That they're going to take over the world and destroy civilization? I listen to Dennis all the time. It's incessant. And the fact is, is there are very few transgender people relative to the population, okay? That's true. Most of us will never meet a transgender person. The few people who are transgender are afflicted with a horrible psychiatric illness, okay? They deserve empathy. No one is forcing them to undergo any transgender hormonal treatment. I'm going to pause you there, Steve. I don't mean to cut you off, but just for the sake of time, I'm going to pause you and I'd like to continue a discussion, but I have to cut in. You are right, Steve, that there is a relatively low number of transgender individuals relative to the population, which is why I ask the question, why is teaching that gender is non -binary and fluid becoming so mainstream if this is so rare? And I encourage you, Steve, and anyone listening who may agree with his disagreement of Dennis' position and my position, I encourage you to read the California Department of Education codes, the Arizona Department of Education codes, New Jersey, Michigan. Many states, blue states around the country, in these codes have things that say that you should teach kids that gender is non -binary. In New Jersey, they say that you should not refer to children using gendered pronouns. Here in Los Angeles, the LAUSD, which has about 450 schools under its jurisdiction, has monthly Rainbow Club meetings where students as young as four years old are subjected to drag queen story hour. This is not a fringe thing. This is very mainstream, and they are also taught these radical gender codes. I agree that people who are experiencing gender dysphoria deserve empathy. That is why I, and I feel comfortable speaking for Dennis, that is why Dennis and I are so disgusted. And that is the word disgusted by this movement, which is saying, legitimizing the fact that it is normal to not feel your gender. These individuals deserve empathy, they deserve therapy, but what they do not deserve is being subjected to doctors and students who are saying, yeah, you're 13 years old or you're 15 years old and you don't feel like your gender, here are some puberty blockers, and by the way, you should have your breasts cut off. This is happening at the Duke University Medical School, Medical Hospital, excuse me, Boston Children's Hospital. This is happening all over the country. I'd like to give Steve an opportunity to respond. We may have to go into the next segment, Steve. We don't have much time. OK. Yeah. What you're saying about people having their breasts, women having their breasts cut off and hormonal blockers, again, it's a misleading narrative you're giving. OK. No, no, no female is going to breast cut off without her consent, without substantial psychiatric involvement. OK. It is not substantial psychiatric involvement. That is not true. You know what? You know what? I've studied this issue. It is true. As have I. As have I. It is very common for these kids. OK, I'm sorry. We're going to have to continue into the next segment. Steve, stay on. We'll pick it up. Back in a moment.

Broadcasting 24 hours a day at bloomberg .com and the Bloomberg Business Act. This is Bloomberg Radio. At least four people are dead after a shooting at a Dollar General store in Jacksonville, Florida. There are conflicting reports as to whether the gunman is holed up or has been shot by police. There's a large police presence outside the store. Boston mayor Michelle Wu is speaking out after a shooting that injured seven people this morning during a parade. Treasured community event has been disrupted by acts of violence from those who had nothing to do with the event and there's absolutely no excuse. The shooting happened during the Jouvert parade which is part of the city's Caribbean American Carnival. Police say the victim suffered non -life threatening injuries. Two people are under arrest and firearms were recovered at the scene. Police commissioner Michael Cox said the shooting was not related to the parade but the parade was halted due to the large crime scene area. Civil rights groups are gathering in the nation's capital today marking the 60th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s historic March on Washington. Martin Luther King III called it a continuation of his father's fight for civil rights, not just a commemoration of the event. We're coming together to say we must create the climate for America to move in a forward direction, not a backward direction. Organizers say about 75 ,000 people turned out for today's march and rally.

"1000 FM 7. 97 Stay connected, stay informed. I'm Kelly Blier and here are the top local stories. The effects of the covid pandemic are still with us, according to a local survey of 21 countries around the world. Details from Northwest News Radio's Ryan Harris, the smartphone survey done by UW's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation finds confidence in all vaccines in the US and of most the other countries is even lower than it was pre -pandemic. IHME's Dr. Emanuela Gakkadu says, even without deeply detailed questions. A lot of people are very concerned about side effects, as well as vaccines not being compatible with their personal beliefs. IHME's Dr. Ali Mokdad says that's especially important for current and future health in countries with big populations of very young children. Mokdad says they were surprised to find a significant number of people couldn't afford necessary health care even in countries with universal care. And people are reporting I'm not seeking medical care, but because of cost, I wasn't able that needed medical care. Mokdad says the main reason for the survey was so political leaders could see which issues needed the most attention as pandemic recovery continues. Ryan Harris, Northwest News Radio. The latest round of COVID vaccines is in short supply and delivery slowed by supply chain issues leading to difficulty in appointments getting both for adults and kids. Libby Page, King County Health Immunization Program Director says the few vaccine appointments available fill up quickly. There's a bit of unpredictability in when they anticipate receiving their supplies. So they'll open up appointments only to realize that they didn't get the shipment they expected when they expected it and have to cancel those appointments. Page says the vaccines for children are all distributed by the State Health Department, so there are no insurance issues like in other states. But you might have to be patient when it comes to getting a vaccination appointment for your kids. As ABC has been reporting, the House has voted to remove Speaker Kevin vaccine. So now what? Many Democrats are hoping a moderate candidate will come forward they can support, Port. But Representative Pramila Jayapal of Seattle indicated to CNN that she won't vote for any Republican. There's nothing moderate about voting every step of the way for all the things that this Republican party has stood for. Steep cuts taking us to the brink of a shutdown, you know, taking us to the brink of halting on the debt. In the meantime, Representative Patrick McHenry of North Carolina has been appointed Speaker Pro Tem. Fresh off a series of local meetings on the issue, Senator Maria Cantwell is demanding for congressional hearings on the fentanyl crisis. More from Northwest News Radio's Jeff Pogelok. Over the spring and summer Cantwell held a number of roundtable discussions across the state. The idea was to get a sense of how the fentanyl crisis was affecting local communities. I wanted declared a crisis because I think that that's the way we need to treat it. But short of that Cantwell has sent a letter to the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs demanding a hearing on how the fentanyl crisis has affected Native American communities, which she says have been disproportionately affected.

Alex McFarland and Eric Discuss the Subject of Natural Law
"We're talking about everything and you said people need to attend to the life of the mind. I mean, I think it was something that we did in this culture for most of our history, people had to understand the basics of how things work, what is liberty? What is right and wrong? How do you get right and wrong? And you were talking earlier about what Lewis C. S. Lewis calls the Dow this inherent sense that every human being has, this conscience of between right and wrong. We all know it. You don't need to be a baptized Christian to know that stealing and murder are wrong. And it brings us maybe to the subject of natural law. The genius legal scholar Hadley Arcus has written a book coming out in a few months called mere natural law. That God's law right and wrong is that the basis of everything. You can not have a constitution unless you understand these things that precede whatever is written in the constitution. Do you know doctor Martin Luther King Jr. predicated the entire validity of the civil rights movement on natural law? If you read his 1963 Pulitzer Prize winning book while we can't wait, brilliant book, by the way, and he quotes Augustine Aquinas in letter from the Birmingham jail. He basically appeals to natural law that we're all human beings, regardless of our ethnicity, we're humans. And if one human has natural rights, all humans have natural rights. Now, Jefferson two, when he used the words in the declaration, we all these truths to be self evident. That all endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. That's natural law.

Americans Shouldn't Be Proud of Only One Person
"This country now has one day in which it honors an individual, Martin Luther King day. It also had Columbus day, but that has been yanked by the left. So we used to honor Columbus and we used to honor George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. We only honor one person, Martin Luther King Jr., worthy of being honored. But not worthy of being the only person honored. They shouldn't be any one person honored. We should honor a number of people virtually every country does, I assume, to be an interesting question. Does France have any national holidays in honor of individuals? I don't know the answer, but it's an interesting question. Today then represents the decline. Of patriotism, you can not sustain a country if you do not imbue the next generation with patriotic feeling.

Critical Race Theory Rejects Martin Luther King Jr.
"It is Martin Luther King Jr. day in the United States a national holiday to recognize a great civil rights leader and one of the things he was great about Was his view of his fellow human being His entire effort in emphasis Was that everybody should be treated as human individuals Regardless of their race And he made famous the line about the color blind society That the color of your skin shouldn't matter It's the content of your character And when I was doing research on American Marxism really digging into critical race theory and in the Marxist ties to critical race theory critical race theory rejects Martin Luther King Jr. its authors its speech givers they reject Martin Luther King Jr. two Our public schools and classrooms reject Martin Luther King Jr. Many Democrats reject Martin Luther King Jr. Joe Biden Previously segregationist and racist He today rejects Martin Luther King Jr. despite yesterday giving a speech at ebenezer church Martin Luther King's church And his speech today Because Joe Biden has pushed the effort of critical race theory And the view that you're a racist regardless of who you are as an individual human being regardless of how you live your life

Guest Host Bob Frantz Unpacks the Heart of Dr. King's Dream
"Very few people know a great deal about the legacy, the life, the work, the history of the great civil rights icon, doctor Martin Luther King Jr., most people know him only from his great speech, the I have a dream speech. They may know him from marches, they may know him from some other. You should know him for his pledge of nonviolence, which he asked his marchers and his supporters in his protesters who are screaming for civil rights that he asked them to take was extraordinary. It was very important. I actually reread those today at the urging of one of my callers on my home station here in Cleveland, which is W H K radio, a.m. 14, 20 the answer. You can hear my daily show from 9 to noon. Here, Eastern Time, but he should be known as well as much for that. And of course, all of his life's work of trying to advance the cause of civil rights trying to advance the cause quality not equity, trying to advance the cause of, well, colorblindness. Am I right? Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream. Today? As he said, so forcefully, his dream was to one day see his children living in a nation in which they would be judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character, the literal dream that people talk about. From doctor Martin Luther King Jr., and it's one of the primary reasons that in his tragic assassination that we have a national holiday dedicated to civil rights and to him as a civil rights icon and leader.

Recommit Yourself to the Promise of Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Some people asked, are you taking the day off? No, but we do believe in the spirit of the day for what the day is supposed to be. The day is supposed to be a day. Where we recommit ourselves to the promise of Martin Luther King, you know, some people say, oh, Charlie, he had all these moral failings and yes, he did. He certainly was a flawed person, but I do think the ideal that he pushed for outside of some of the flirting with Marxism and communism was a moral one in a heroic one. And it was one that we should remind ourselves of. Of judging people based on content their character, not the color of their skin. So their character, who they are, their practices, their values, their beliefs, their actions. Not how they look and this ideal was repeated, in fact, I was listening to radio on the drive in and they kept on replaying it. And they talked about how, you know, I have a dream that one day we will have a society where people are judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. And then just a couple of minutes later, they're talking about systemic racism and white privilege, and I just thought to myself the very same people today that are going to be telling us about how wonderful Martin Luther King Jr.'s ideals are about how courageous he was. And he certainly was clear. He was clear in the type of America that he wanted to push forward, are now telling us that white people are to blame just because of the color of their skin.

Majority of Americans Want Biden to Consider 'All Possible Nominees' for Supreme Court Vacancy
"In the meantime, I want to report on this story. You know that the president had promised that he would appoint a female and a black female at that to the Supreme Court. According to a new survey at a Rasmussen, Americans expect them to do that 59% of Americans expect them to do that. But they're not really happy about it. And I'll tell you whether or not that happy about it. Because since when did your gender or your race matter more than your intellect and your capability? This is still the United States of America. And I realize in this woke movement that's in part funded by the likes of super pacs from billionaires that want to spend a $125 million on 2022. This is the problem, right? You've got all this money that's force feeding a set of values and so then it becomes all about your race, your gender, as opposed to your capability, your intellect, et cetera. And so Americans don't like this. Everyday Americans are like, but wait a second. None of that should matter, right? Going back to the words of Martin Luther King Jr., we really should be a colorblind society. We don't want to see race or gender first. We want to see who someone is as a person and yet it's like all you can see because they're making it that way so much that the person that's going to be appointed to the Supreme Court has to be female and has to be black.

USA Today Faces Backlash, Deletes Series of Tweets Which 'Normalizes' Pedophilia
"USA Today which used to be a respectable publication came out with an article recently and the title was that they believe that pedophiles are misunderstood. They wrote an entire article, by the way, on the day of child sex trafficking awareness day. Let's just be clear. The day that you're supposed to talk about child sex trafficking, they say that pedophiles are misunderstood. Could you imagine if USA Today on Martin Luther King Jr. day said that racists were misunderstood? Or on Juneteenth? USA Today was lamb blasted. This is on the blaze dot com for publishing an article framing pedophilia as misunderstood. Swift backlash caused the publication to delete tweets promoting the article, which was originally titled quote when the public keeps getting wrong about pedophilia. The complicated research behind pedophilia. Continued by saying, pedophilia is viewed as among the most horrifying social ills. But scientists who study the sexual disorder say that it is also among the miss most misunderstood. When most of the public thinks a pedophilia they assume it's synonymous with child abuse. USA Today researcher says, it's actually when we study pedophilia, we say that term describes an attraction, not an action, and use it interchangeably with abuse that fuels misperceptions. USA Today was forced to delete their Twitter thread. Yeah, I don't know if USA Today was reading the room correctly. But platforming like pro pedophile arguments, don't think the country's there. Hopefully not yet. USA Today tweeted out, quote, we think we know what a pedophile is. There's a lot of misunderstanding. Or there's a lot we're misunderstanding.

Not in my league at all, but he had a big head toward the door appearing through the window at the boy. His pants around his ankles squeezed between April straddled legs as she lay on top of a teacher's desk. I gripped his arms and flipped him around, pushing him against the wall. His eyes widened, mouth dropping, hey, what are you doing? He chuckled nervously. I took a deep breath before dropping on my shaky knees, the ground cold. Now, I want to apologize for playing that sexually explicit stuff because if you send your child to public school, you are knowingly exposing them to pornography and propaganda. At this point. But then cut 67, I started to show up at school board meetings. I tried to participate the best I could. Like, cut 67, play whatever they have. Good evening.

Today we're grappling with seeing white supremacists and neo Nazis brandish weapons and ransacked the U. S. Capitol were grappling with fears that racialized violence will become an even bigger part of our politics or even our communities. How do we talk to our kids about these events about race and prepare them for the racialized world they face. Joining me is Alison Briscoe Smith, a child clinical psychologist, professor and director of diversity, equity and inclusion. At the right Institute. Thanks so much for joining us, Dr Briscoe Smith. Thanks for having me. Also with us is Melissa's Euro and Andrew Grant Thomas, their co founders of Embrace Race on organization dedicated to sharing and developing best practices for raising and caring for kids in the context of race. Thanks so much for joining us, Melissa's Euro. Thanks for having us, Meena. Also glad to have you, Andrew Grant Thomas. Great to be with you, Meena and Dr Process Smith. I will start with you. I think one of the first questions that often comes up for parents, especially of elementary age Children. You should We even talk about these recent events. I mean, is it true that they're probably noticing more about what's happening then we think definitely there. Definitely noticing more. You think I think there's a sense that perhaps Children maybe aren't noticing and aren't seeing. So even if they're not watching the news or on the Internet, they are noticing our responses. Parents. So I would really encourage us to just assume that kids are curing more on being impacted more than we might we might think and most, she wrote, Would you agree with that? And if so, what? What is this, bringing up their kids? Potentially 100% agree with that. I want to just say Meena that Andrew and I are so thrilled to be with Alison as well. Who has we considered part of the embrace race community and who we've turned to and learn so much from as well so Um Absolutely they are noticing and what's a great approaches to ask them? You know what they know And what? That something that works at different age levels, right? On Against communities of color, and Martin Luther King fought against it and made some headway, as did the whole movement that made Martin Luther King Dr King and we continue to fight. We'd be celebrate the games today, and we continue to be aware of the way in which there's been this relentless Um You know this relentless fight against things like voting rights and full citizenship for people of color, So kids were really have noticed it all along, and there's been so many high profile. Incidents of racialized violence in Alison. We actually met Alison and started working together. We invited her on a conversation We had I think it was the summer of 2016 when Philando Castile and Alton Sterling were both murdered by police, So it's been kind of the same conversation since Sense, and this has been Um, you know, this is a little different, shocking but not surprising to many of us on but I want to underline that kids are Noticing all of it and interpreting it in the ways that they can developmentally and according to the information, that they their experiences in the information that they're being given, because what are the ways that they do tend to interpret it developmentally. I mean, Andrew Grant Thomas. As embrace races noted, I mean even babies notice racial differences and by around age four kids even begin to show signs. Of racial bias. Can you talk a little bit about developmentally at what age is Children are are reacting to racial differences and Given their age, how they are making sense of it. What they're developing brains allow I mean, as you said, you know, yes, and infancy. They're noticing differences that we later come to understand his racial differences. Attack. That point, you know, has released three months, six months. They're noticing some of these things. Now they're gravitating toward people who look like them in this country, probably because Right. 90% or more of infants are supporter cared for by people who look like them right to the gravitating toward the familiar but later on, as you say, around age, even as early as three and 45 years old. That familiarity. You know, That's what a preference deep into something that we might recognize his bias in many, many cases, and that bias could also translated to behavior. Rights. He might see inclusion exclusion on the basis of skin color from play groups. For example, you might see, you know, appreciation of or knowledge of stereotypes. And infants story, four year old five year old kids being correspond to stereotypes and toe hold those stereotypes themselves. What changes later is that you know those attitudes of sensibilities don't become embedded. Until adolescence, typically the right, which means that those earlier years are a phenomenal opportunity to work with kids in as those sensibilities are beginning to emerge. Yes, and a similar question to you, Dr Briscoe Smith about just you know, there is footage right of people carrying Confederate flags of clothing with anti Semitic messages. What? What is this? Telling our Children what kinds of things conceive into their consciousness that you know you may have even heard from your own Children. So what is not only keeping within their consciousness, but they're they're facing especially I'll speak to not only my Children who are kids of color, but the kids that I serve is that they're under threat. Um, And I think it's not unusual to have kids of color at questions of my okay. We'll be safe. You know, the dinner time conversation that we had last. Actually, two weeks ago was one of are we okay? And every state that's gonna be really common. Really developmentally grounded question that Children from little ones all the way up are asking in some way, shape or form. I also think that there's a communication and a question about what's going on for white Children as they watch this. And, uh, big opportunity to intervene for white kids as um, They're seeing Mr to engage in a really elaborated kind of conversation. I'm Quite worried actually about the ways in which things like we're seeing, and the things that Melissa is also kind of spoken to how things have gone over the past couple years are actually really radicalizing her white Children. So that he doesn't opportunity. Oh, intervene here and to hold from hard conversation. But our kids are capable and for not engaging with them around this, then we're really leaving them up to their own to figure it out. And developmentally, you know, little kids think that things they're they're called. Whether there are responsible, and they're also not great at that kind of differentiation. They generalize. So you know the conversation that my son had at first was So it's all Republicans like. Oh, no, no, no, no. Okay, let's let's slow down. Let's let's think about this but quickly. The kind of quote unquote black and white kind of thinking becomes really kind of generalized. Ables is what they're trying to figure out. Who might hurt me or or who do I belong to, So it's a opportunity that we have to help him get elaborated around that on do not fall into traps of other.

His widow, Coretta Scott King, was a staunch ally to the LGBTQ community and believe her husband would have been also For her death. Mrs. King spoke eloquently about the connection between racism, homophobia, anti Semitism and other forms of hate, insisting they all quote seek to dehumanize a large group of people to deny their humanity and their dignity and personhood. Speaking of her husband's legacy, Mrs King said, quote. I still hear people say that I should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people and I should stick to the issues of racial justice. But I hasten to remind them that Martin Luther King Jr said quote injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. 1967 long before the LGBTQ community fought for marriage equality. It was Richard and Mildred loving, who ran afoul of Virginia's anti Massetti Nation laws there. Case went all the way to the Supreme Court, where Chief Justice Earl Warren declared that marriage was a basic civil right quote, fundamental toe our very existence and survival. Um He said. Further quote to deny this fundamental freedom on so unstoppable basis as the racial classifications embodied in these statutes, classifications so directly subversive. The principle of equality at their heart. Of the 14th amendment. It is surely to drive all the state's citizens of liberty without due process of law. Years later, Mildred Loving spoke in support of same sex marriage, saying quote government has no business imposing some people's religious beliefs over others, especially if it's a nice people. Civil rights, she declared, quote. I am proud that Richard and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love the commitment, the fairness and the family that so many people black or white, young or old, gay or straight seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all that's what loving And loving all about And in the 19 sixties, it was separate water fountains Day It's bakeries in school bathrooms. African American civil rights movement created a cultural understanding that we as Americans cannot pick and choose the people will we deal with in the public sphere, and while some corners still bristle at that concept The majority of Americans agree that religious beliefs don't trump civil liberties. And finally, President Obama spoke often about the debt he and the entire nation Oh, to Dr King in 2050. He praised MLK saying, quote. In a world full of poverty. He called for empathy in the face of brutality. He placed his faith and non violence. Um further, he said, quote his teachings remind us we have a duty to fight against poverty. Even if we're wealthy to care about the child in the decrepit school long after our own Children have found success and to show compassion towards the immigrant family. Knowing that we were strangers ones too. Such teach teachings, no doubt informed Obama's evolution on LGBTQ rights from tentative supporter to staunch ally In a 2012 Newsweek cover story. Andrew Sullivan even declared Obama, America's first gay president, writing quote. I've always sensed that he intuitively understands gays in our predicament. Because it's so mirrors his own. He knows how the love and sacrifice of marriage can heal, integrate and rebuild the soul. The point of the gay rights movement, after all, is not about helping people be gay. It's about creating a space for people to be themselves. Sensual. Yeah. That's very good. By the way, Andrew Sullivan has some really awesome Ted talks out there. I stumbled across three recently one that's very good about depression, in particular navigating with depression. That was really poignant, but others as well, talking about gay rights, and just Yeah, his experiences and stuff.

All right to another story. It is Martin Luther King Jr Day here in the U. S. A holiday usually celebrated with parades and festivals and interfaith services this year, the pandemic force the cancelation of most of those gatherings. But after a year dominated by racial turmoil, many cities found ways to hold virtual celebrations instead. MPR's Adrian Florido reports, speaking from the King Center in Atlanta to just a handful of people spread out in the pews, but to thousands watching online, Martin Luther King Jr is daughter Bernice King said she'd never have predicted all the racial turmoil the last year would bring the reserves and culture of divisiveness, hate racism, nationalism and violence has reached a critical stage and at this point The United States is certainly the poster child for it. Police killings of black people a pandemic ravaging black and Brown America, a president trying to toss out black votes insurrectionists storming the Capitol. She called on the violence to end Yes, there are many who will continue to endorse and even employed violence. As their answer to social change. But in the words of my mama, she said, somebody has to cut off the chain of violence. So on this King holiday, it's not too late for us to shift from chaos to community. Can you shared the stage with Raphael Warnock George's recently elected first black senator? He's also the pastor of Dr King's Ebeneezer Baptist Church more Neck said Making that shift to community requires understanding that Americans faiths are linked deadly pandemic has reminded us We're tied together is, Dr King said in a single garment of destiny Because we're dealing with a deadly airborne disease. My neighbor coughs and I'm in peril by the cough of my neighbor. That doesn't make my neighbor my enemy. That means that our destiny is tied together. We are as close in our humanity as a cough. The Atlanta event was just one of many held to honor the King holiday. There were virtual events in Memphis, Detroit, Denver in Los Angeles in San Antonio, where tens of thousands of people usually march on this day. City streamed what it called a virtual march featured the voices of families of people killed by police. In Chicago, the city's virtual commemoration highlighted the work of community leaders who have focused on healing the wounds inflicted by racism. And speaking via zoom from North Carolina. The Reverend William Barber, the second called on the incoming Biden Harris administration to chart a new, less violent course for the nation even is the threat of violence continues to loom over the presidential transition. And so the way out, we believe in this moment. Is to heal the morning and the hurt people are experiencing. He joined by about a dozen other faith leaders laid out a 14 point plan, they said, would help the nation and specifically black and brown Americans to begin healing. Marco bit relief access to health care. Ah, higher minimum wage, immigration reform voter protections. We must choose policy Nonviolence. And stop policy violence and nothing would be more tragic than for us to turn back At this point, he said. Anything less would be a dishonor to Dr King's legacy. Dream for NPR news.

And I think I've done so in a manner in which you learned a hell of a lot you might not have known because I lived through it. And more importantly, we didn't get all wrapped up into the jargon of if he was still alive. This is what Martin Luther King Jr would have thought said or done.

This concern has the FBI vetting all 25,000 National Guard troops coming to the U. S. Capitol for the event.

"Indicates to me that the civil rights movement was kind of a controlled. The reason these people were killed is that they were not controllable. Civil rights movement was going to happen but the direction needs to be controlled from the top. And that's what these people were a threat to. That's my conclusion open to other interpretations. Four zero four eight seven zero seven fifty one eight hundred wsb talk. I've got time for call brett and gainesville. You're on with monica monica. How are you good. How are you doing in good Not to change the subject. Because what you're talking about is very vital but I was just curious in the world today how there can be a double standard When it comes to race and specifically how a councilman in gwinnett can call john lewis racist and john lewis turn and get lose his job because of it and john lewis turn around today and call the president racist. I just was curious. What input on on that. If i my opinion on on that double standard is that there is always devil. Standard seems to me democrat versus republican. So if the quote. I just read from lbj. He was a democrat who's credited with bringing in the nineteen sixty four civil rights act. Obviously but if you read about him he was truly a foul mouthed racist so no one will ever. You never see anderson cooper crying reading. Lbj quotes. he's not doing that. He is so it's very political. It's very cynical. And but then i take it one step further and say does it really matter if you get what you want. Which is the civil rights act or daca or whatever. Does it really matter so my answer is does it matter what somebody who feels their heart or whatever if they get you what you want. So when i look at the constitution the bill of rights look at the federalist papers the anti federalist papers The constitution and the bill of rights really have been eroded over the years which means that they weren't bulletproof. But what do the words mean. what was it. A setup wasn't meant people approve are we bound to it even though a rebound to the words on it or what people really thought What they were kind of tricking us into i wonder sometimes if when the replace the articles of confederation with the constitution they meant to make. I wonder i'm sure they meant to make a stronger. Central government and it was a little bit of a hijacking of the revolution. Now the civil rights stuff when lbj. He made that cynical comment about the fifty seven civil rights act. Just give a little so that you know. It's just a relief or release valve. The sixty four civil rights act had a lot actually power and in his book. I'm reading and talks about how that took kennedy king off the front pages because his struggle was in some quarters considered one..

C Can you imagine that? And they said, Oh, you're back. Yep. I'm back in my place to be w. A B. C And my former broadcasting is to connect you with the here and now to what has transpired in the past. Because history keeps repeating itself. I know this was the most important election of all time. We've never had rioting and insurrection like we've had in the takeover of the capital recently, and with the black lives matter, and TIF marches, riots, looting that took place in the summer. You couldn't be More hopelessly wrong about that, especially if you personally lived through the sixties and the seventies. But let me break another bubble as we celebrate the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr here today on W A. B C. This myth about the Kennedy Theeighties of Camelot. We've seen a lot of that dissipate over the years because we recognize that like any human beings, JFK, RFK had flaws. Now. Unfortunately, JFK was first to be assassinated. And then Martin Luther King Jr and then RFK. All three of them are iconic figures in the history of America. Through the fifties and the sixties. Until they departed this plane because of assassination. But they have quite the legacy. Fact, a lot of people don't know that RFK was counsel to the committee to investigate communism in America. Right. He was a key proponent. He was no Jill McCarthy or Roy Cohen, who became the number one go to guy for the growing power of Donald Trump. At some point, they sure Comey's under Every sofa in every house in America, but he was in And you know, I don't know if many of you know That they were not friends with Martin Luther King Jr at all. Now JFK who had been a congressman in Massachusetts and groomed by his father. Become the U. S senator and then eventually the president of the United States, he wrote the book profiles in courage. About how guys had broken from segregation. Elice tendencies like Sam Houston in Texas, right. The leader of Texas is independent, strive against Mexico and Santa Anna. He was featured. Another person was featured. He won a Pulitzer Prize for that, even though JFK didn't write the book. His daddy. Had somebody else write it and JFK got all the credits because this was part of the plan. Help make him the president of the United States. Now, As senator of Massachusetts, you would think he leaned lust right? He certainly wasn't a conservative. 1957 while shitting in the Senate. As a Democrat, he voted against Eisenhower's Civil Rights Act 1957. He voted with the segregation of lists. From the South, Strong Thurman and mostly Democrats at that time, because say that was a Democratic stronghold. And why did JFK vote against Eisenhower this civil rights act because he didn't want to anger Those who believed in segregation in the south because he was seeking the 1960 nomination. So it wasn't about You know, equality for blacks, it was all about becoming president. All about becoming president. And then all of a sudden, in October of that year, he was running against Vice President Nixon. And by the way, Vice President Nixon had a great relationship with Martin Luther King Jr he met with Martin Luther King Jr at the White House. They often times would have phone conferences because, remember the Republican Party at that time was the party of Civil Rights. James Brown. That's right. I got ants in my pants, and I need to dance if you have a red jet or have any magazine. He was beloved by Republicans. He was a Republican. Then you had at that particular time. Jackie Robinson, who was the iconic figure he was a Rockefeller Republican. So the Republicans were the party of integration. Democrats with a party of segregation. So this is what happened right before the election. This is October on month before the election with Vice President Richard Nixon. Martin Luther King Jr. Is dragged to jail on a trumped up traffic charge, enjoyed you, and they wouldn't release him. And his wife at the time, Corretta Scott King was pregnant. And J. F case advisor said. Call Corretta Scott King, ask her how she's doing. What can you do to try to extricate Her husband, Martin Luther King Jr from jail. And he received a tremendous amount of attention. RFK, his campaign manager, advisers, soon to become attorney general had suggested he not call Corretta Scott King. You write down anywhere in the history books? No, of course not. Of course, now is he aged Camelot? How dare you say that? The problem is Vice President Nixon did not also call for some reason he who had had regular communication when Martin Luther King Jr did not call Coretta Scott King. Find out how Martin was doing in jail and what he could do his vice president and to try to move up the legal process and get him released from jail, if nothing more than on bail, And that was the story. It was carried throughout the black community in the south, where they had obviously registered voters who would normally vote Republican. They would've voted for Nixon as he had voted for Eisenhower and Nixon twice before, and this time, some of them broke ranks. And voted for JFK. Now JFK won the election for president by the mirror stuff majority such than 1%. When you bisected it and dissected it, it was because he come or of the black vote. Richard Nixon would have become president of the United States. Now you would have thought, right? JFK with a great speech upon his inauguration. What can you do for your country? Would have had my Luther King Jr invited right? He had other civil rights leaders invited In the mountain, not Martin, Lucy King Jr. He was on the outside looking in. In fact, JFK refused to allow Sammy Davis Jr. A lifetime Democrat, to perform at his inauguration because Sammy Davis Jr had married the white actress Mai Brit. What happened to the age of Camelot to, huh? And there's more. My name is 1 808 for a W A B. C. That's 1 808 489222.

That's screaming at your from the glowing box in your living room. It's but on martin. Luther king's is a very interesting opportunity. Which i haven't stumbled upon a few weeks ago. I think only without. I know i would have a show. Today wasn't really thinking about martin luther king day but i saw a mention of a book called orders to kill and it was. It's a the subtitle is the truth about the assassination of martin luther king. So have you listened to my show you. I'm a hardcore libertarian. But once you once you're that hardcore and really lose faith in the government's and in the system and the media the dialectic between left and right you can you realize that there is a lot of times you're not getting all the truth that the media on the left or the right is going to tailor the facts they give you to support their own position so i always dig a little deeper and when you do that. A common weapon used against that approach. Is this allegation. That you're a conspiracy theorist that there's no support behind it your tin foil hat. Your irrational whatever. But if you and this martin luther king expose is a conspiracy theory but it is so well documented in. Its i would say you say was proven. In a court of law that It's a ideal paternity to debunk to to realize that allegations that conspiracy theories are all bunk are bunk in themselves. It was written by a guy named dr william pepper. Who was a friend of martin. Luther king and he ultimately became the lawyer for james earl. Ray who was went to jail. Yeah james who went to jail for killing martin luther king but he didn't have trial. He pled guilty supposedly by some funny business of his lawyer. And i and the the story that this guy relates about. How james earl ray got railroaded and what really happened is absolutely riveting. There's tons of evidence of it. So i'm going to walk you through a few of the facts. Tell you how to get more information on that. You can draw your own conclusion. And then we have to ask the big question if it isn't some lone nut gunman if martin luther king was killed as a result of a conspiracy that included the government and the mafia. Why then you have to ask why and and did it work. Did it change the course of events. So let's talk about that. Gonna take down the rabbit hole now and bingley my producer. Brinkley's here hyping clear how you doing. I'm good how are you. i'm good well. I guess So i remember just telling you a little bit about this and you as fascinated as i was by the story right i mean. I don't think this is common knowledge. You yeah.

"Dillard. Joe McConnell for KQED. Good morning, I'm Dave frame and it ate 43 with a Monday morning perspective on Martin Luther King Jr Day. Lee Me L Love It remembers how the civil rights movement left a legacy of a more diverse America. When I was six, a girl visiting from my native Taiwan admonished me for smiling at another child because she was black. Even at six. I could not understand this blatant racism. My response. In hindsight, we wouldn't even be in the country if not for the civil rights movement. The first Chinese exclusion acts emerged and 18 eighties. The time I was born in the 19 sixties, the U. S have fully reopened the doors to Chinese immigrants and my father arrived, is a graduate student in that first wave of Asian immigration. On Martin Luther King Jr Day I celebrate the civil rights movement that helped foster the historic opening of immigration laws. Then President Johnson spoke of lifting the bars of discrimination against immigrants. Vice President Hubert Humphrey was more explicit. Urging us to bring our immigration law into line with the spirit of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The following year, the heart seller Act opened the doors to people coming from China, India, Brazil, Pakistan all over Lifting the ethnic bands and quotas in place for over 40 years. During my college years, Stanford with not in the into the forces around the world, agitating for change in 1989, Our Rainbow Coalition of student groups staged a sit in demanding that our studies and professors mirror our diversity. As police Busses rolled in this made national news coming from a scrappy, isolated upbringing in Chinatown, I began to understand the power of collective action. My sophomore year credit. Scott King spoke of her husband's legacy to an auditorium of wrapped students. When I took the stage is no longer about just representing my people. Our diversity carried a common message that our humanity has made whole when could is airlifted walls torn down? Privilege in politics can isolate us. We don't need more walls today is reminder that those of us who came to this country or build our lives on the sweat of immigrants should count the leaders of the civil rights movement among our kin.

I took advantage of placing their ballots and really using this opportunity to let their voices be heard, and we saw that play out throughout the country, both from a presidential election and even down in Georgia, But we had some significant overturns There is well with regards to two First black and first Jewish senators being elected down in Georgia as well, which is huge, Ah, lot of the issues that we're discussing here, and there are still issues that the focus is on today were issues that Dr Martin Luther King Jr was advocating for in talking about when he was leading the civil rights movement, and he's He has a direct connection to the Peopie. Can you talk a little bit about that? Dr Martin Luther King played a significant role within the CPI during his time frame during the civil rights movement. Many of the organizations or the organizing that took place on the civil rights movement took place with the shape and, um, Dr Martin Luther King being right at the right of the helmet a lot of these efforts, and I think that speaks glowingly because while Um Dr Martin Luther King was not leading the peeper say there was an alignment. As far as idea ideas. There was different that there was a line and as far as, um what the ultimate goals were I think that speaks to the fact that you could have a year. Different groups were different organizations that you're supporting, advocating. But you could find the linemen around things that are significant and in this case, it was alarming around equitable treatment. Community of color, and he played a significant role in helping to organize with protest. Organizing with the John Lewis is an individual's of that sort throughout his time frame here and sacrificing so much in these moments many do while Dr Bob Dr Martin King is the one that Often time, um, champion and that any ship be in many respects. There's so many others that place to significant role in this movement during the time frame, those within the end of the city those who were not ah, part of the city itself and so way champion and we celebrate Dr Martin Luther King because of the sacrifice that he made because he was a symbol of so much something much greater symbol of that sacrifice. A little of that commitment that was needed in order to see the changes that were looking, um, that they were really ongoing. You know, we haven't seen the full manifestation of that dream that he spoke of, but it's an ongoing commitment. It's not something that we're going to check a box on, but it's something that we have to continue to be routed in going forward. And so I think those alignment With Dr King and the association throughout the years is what has allowed us to continue to push forward in many respects to this day. I'm joined by Trevan Williams, the vice president of marketing and communications for the deep. All Americans have learned about the work that Dr Martin Luther King Jr did for this country. But as a person of color, I'm sure you have a very unique perspective on all of that. What does his work mean to you? Uh, Dr Martin Luther King. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr means so much to me because it really goes back to what I just made next to. It's the level of commitment. You know, Um I looked up. Uh, a few years ago at the trajectory of our country, and I made a decision that I wanted to get involved with the end of the piano larger level, and I was blessed with the opportunity to join the organization almost two years ago to help an advocate on behalf. I have my own Children. I'm trying to set, uh, set the course of that when they get to my age, they're not having the same battles that I'm having at 30. Plus, you know, 30, plus years of age at this point, and I looked at Dr Martin Luther King as an example of the commitment to beyond just Um, today, the commitment to the future and how much we have to sacrifice in order to do so, in some cases that said that we have to continue to sacrifice at the level that we are, But the reality is, is that if it's going to push things forward My three Children, um, down the line that it's completely worth it. And I think many people there are off the country. Whether you're black writer would have you You have the same sense of that You want to do whatever is necessary. You want to commit yourself to ensuring that your family your future? Your Children have a better life than you have. That was the commitment that I get from documented stalking Mark of the King. I think about him as the father and what it meant to sacrifice started to put his Children In a better position, and I think that commitment if that's something that at its base level that we can all kind of, um, take that in. And realize the commitment that's necessary in order to do that, that stuff that that's a powerful thing. What wouldn't you do for your Children? Right? That's how I think about it. When I think about Dr Barlow, the king is what the sacrifice that he made for his Children. I want to do that same level of commitment for my Children, so that they have a better life than I have. We certainly saw a lot of young people involved in the racial justice protests during the summer of 2020 from those that you talked to the younger generation. How much of an impact has Dr Martin Luther King Jr is legacy had on them in the work they're doing now. I think what wish unique about this opportunity is that it provides us with the with the amount of protests and um, and public displays that we've seen over the last two years. I think it allows us Galvanized a young based itude that you made mention two and allow them the opportunity to say you're doing many of the same things that are John Lewis or Dr Martin Luther King did in this moment, Um, there's there's interesting video that we did..

"The hoopla and you come in with urban meyer urban meyer gay. Urban meyer and your three and eight. I mean very quickly especially with the stigma of being a college coach in only being a college coach. You don't get as much leeway treated more like a black coach black head coach more than anything else in terms of you. Don't get your your leash is not as long if you were a guy who coached in the nfl. Before i mean the quickly the narrative goes to well. I mean obviously as we see now because this guy's records four eleven or three hundred twelve. We see now that this guy was was made for college and all of a sudden. Now you start coming up with the well one is his health gonna start a breakdown in all this could all this all this rhythm russo. Amilton his his experiment or on the experiment is going to get the shelf life that it could possibly get if jacksonville doesn't jump out the gate quickly. And when i mean courtly. I'm talking about it. Those guys at least twelve gave it to the season. Those guys are at least jacksonville. One in fifteen last year. They're not at least five and seven five or seven. Might be a little bold there. But they're not at least four and eight or five and seven somewhere around there. Are those rumors or those complaints are going to start getting louder and louder and louder and louder about what is jacksonville. Doing your especially some of these coaches. That were hired this year. I know the new york jets higher the san francisco forty niners defensive end defensive coordinator robert slaves the falcons. I met you before higher. The offensive coordinator for the tennessee titans. So if some of these coaches who are going to get hired and they come out and they start doing well here. We have jacksonville. Who who's organization or the Situation in terms of what job what you want. What job opening is the most attractive outside of the los angeles chargers and basically with jacksonville. What the number one pick with the ability to Work with trevor lawrence. I mean that right. There is an invitation for a lot of really good candidates to get the job with urban meyer. And he's starting gate the gate slow. When you could've had arthur. Smith or eric be enemy or will in those guys i mean the school even look even worse for urban meyer. So we'll see we'll see windows world. Sports the podcast. I'm your host wonder wallace of glad that you could be with us so we speak about. I'm speaking about urban. Meyer wanted to come back coaching jacksonville. All right all right and these are the questions that i asked one. How long would he anticipate komo. He's gonna sit there and be like what man. I you know realistically if everything goes perfectly as far as his concern. How long do you want to coach. Are we speaking about five years ten years. Are you looking coaching to your seventies. I mean what. What's going on here. And like i said i'm quite sure his answer would be like the ship one day at a time so i can't give you that answer but physically. Do you feel like you could handle this job in tool in in your early sixties or mid sixty s or eight years nine years ten years and of course amount of things go into that other than just your health record wise and everything else. So that's one of the things that i'm interested in. Because the most he's ever spent school seven years. Ohio state will be spent eight years. Injectable number one. He would be willing to longest tenured coaches in the nfl. Bt's spent eight years in the nfl. That must mean that he would have some really good success. Am i'm talking about really good success. If you're going to be spending eight years in in one situation outside of cincinnati then you're either going to be an nfc or you're either going to be in a conference championship game. Go to a super bowl winner super bowl or something like that. There's not too many organizations out there that will keep around for eight years if you haven't at least made the county's championship so again depending upon the other coaches what they do. Cut your coaches who were hired this offseason by nfl team the principal. What they do. If arthur smith is leading the jets two conference championships in super bowl. Appearances and division titles. And the jaguar finish nine seven and eight eight every single year than urban. Meyer ain't going to be sticking around for eight years. The relationship lynn far before then. So all of these things go into play when the question is asked. How long do you want to coach. How long do you think you can coach that type of thing. So that's one bill. My other deal that i would ask him what be. What are your reasons for wanting to coach in the nfl gossipy. Are you doing it because you really want to go ahead and be an nfl head coach. Always been a dream of yours. Are you doing it. This you know wanting to scratchy niche. You're bored i mean. What would you want a new challenge. I mean what. What exactly are the reasons. Why because the best coaches in the league today are those who paid their dues and climb the ladder league to become an nfl head coach especially the way that the league is trending toward younger. Head coaches and young young young boxer coming in. And they're sometimes mid thirties late thirties. Early forties sean. Mcvay set the precedent where you know what there's not you don't have to be a guy who's in his early fifties to be able to be able to coach a football team able to coach. These guys you can actually have a guy who's age. It's comparable to the players that you're coaching and still be successful than you could. Still garner their respect. We can still have the ultimate success. Sean mcvay opening up plenty of doors for that type of deal. You take a look at the hires in chicago and in green bay in in cincinnati. These guys on the sean mcvay tree. All these guys are young. Offense coordinating white carrying charismatic guys. So that's kinda like the trend toward what's happening now. Carolina last season Hired met rule to be their coach. But for the most part you still have guys like the for. Ohio's that'll her. Yeah ryan ryan day has name has been mentioned when you speak a possible coaches making that. Move to the nfl. All those guys have been relatively young. Even as far as the coaching in college concern. Met campbell the coach at ohio state. Relatively young guy. That gets a lot of buzz about possibly being a good. Nfl head coach. Pets this gerald the head coach at northwestern. Here's another guy who once again gets a lot of buzz about you. Know he would be good as an nfl head coach and he if he wanted the opportunity that he would get a serious look at being head coach in the league but before plenty riley a guy out of oh a guy out of oklahoma quite sure of the cowboys have another faltering season that If lincoln riley's agent called jerry jones like you know what i need. Advocating advocating the the firing or dismissal of coach. But if you do. Lincoln would be interested if that situation ever came about. So that would be liquor. Riley's name is out there so you know there's a lot of these. Young coaches or college coaches generally make jump the. Nfl wants them young and for a guy without any head coaching experience planning experience assistant coaching. Anything front office experience. Urban meyer has nothing in terms of experience in the nfl and with his age.
