martin luther king, as well as nelson mandela? >> i would say that my uncle was always a peaceful warrior. he fought for peace, justice. he wanted to end oppression. but he held on to that his whole life. of course, nelson mandela only acquired some of those qualities later in life. however, i believe they both went through the fire. i believe that they were forged to be leaders and to resist oppression, and martin luther king, jr. fought for that here in america, and nelson mandela fought so hard in south africa, but those two movements did finally meet, and i think that was their commonality. >> i think both of these men were nobel peace prize winners. both remarkable in that they overcame extraordinary odds of racism, and in for nelson mandela, national apartheid. when he came out of prison he came out different. filled with humility and grace and a gentleness he took with him when he was elected to office and worked with the very people who villainized him for a all of his life. how does a person come to the place where they c

martin luther king jr. was a christian but said i want to use my christianity to work toward a just nation, not use as a pretext to justify bigotry against everybody else in the nation. >> what's interesting, it does play into sort of the persecution narrative you do see on the right. the sense we're being persecuted. there is a war on christmas, our free speech. even though no government, let's just be clear, there is no government that intervened to do anything to phil robertson. these were private companies. >> absolutely right. and look. not only are they talking about persecution, but they're putting up their own nails. they're climbing up their own tree and hanging up by themselves. ain't nobody hosting them up there. they're saying look at me, because i'm raised up and look at me being a victim here. so the victim mentality is amazing. they're always talking to left wing people or progressives or liberals or black people or women saying stop that victim mentality. who is a bigger victimizer than -- s

to me, the greatest thick about martin -- thing about martin luther king was that he could speak about religion and politics in every speech constantly and was never accused of mixing church and state. which is remarkable. and it's because he did it with such an amazing adroitness. he'd say you want equal souls? fine. you want equal votes? fine. they both lead to the same place. they both lead to justice, and they go through race. and he's not trying to subject one to the other, which is how you get in trouble with that. and there are examples of that. so i think the best general notion about how you refute the tendency, it's a proven historical tendency to distort and even invert lessons from race to make them more compatible with what you want to believe is to preserve personal stories that have the truth in them. and that's all the time we have. i'm sorry.

martin luther king jr. fought for that here in america and nelson mandela fought so hard in south america. those movements did finally meet and i think that was their commonality. >> i think they were both noble peace prize winners and they overcame racism, and when he came out of friday, you mention thad he came out a very different man. he was stilled with humility, grace, and gentleness that he took with him when he went to office. he ended up working with the very people that villainized him for all of his life. how does a person come to the place where they can put aside the bitterness, hurt, and all of the offenses they have receive todd do that. >> as you ask that question, i think about my own father reverend a.d. king, who when hi uncle, martin luther king jr. was killed, i wanted to hate somebody and strike out at somebody. he said you case hate white people, you can't hate any people, it's the devil and we have to fight the devil. martin luther king jr. always said i will not stoop so low that me

of course, everybody is mandela to gandhi and martin luther king, although neither of them was in favor of violence, but nelson mandela went to violence not to take over the country, but to get the white minority regime to listen to the demands of black people, but even as late, early in '64, martin luther king was calling for nelson mandela's release. in 1965, he spoke in london, and called for internal sanctions. he echoed that in the '80s and, of course you know, the free south african movement in which president obama spoke of being a part of as a young student was very much a part of the ultimate number of things that brought a man to apartheid in south africa. i was u here in '85, and as you said, it was a gruesome, gruesome period, and i went to a hilltop so that i could overlook the prison where they said nelson mandela had a garden that he used to tend, and i was so hoping, if i couldn't see him, i could see the garden, but, of course, i was followed by state security people an d had to leae in a hurry. >> well, there you are. pictures of you, the young woman, sitting down with

center, going to the crypt where martin luther king was buried. he and his wife went across the pond to the burial site and placed a wreath at the base. briefly after that he met with martin luther king's wife for about half an hour. he was escorted into a limousine and carted around the city where he became an honorary man at morehouse men's college and ended the day at georgia tech football stadium where 50,000 plus people waited for him to come in, he was an hour late. he couldn't speak for 15 minutes. during that speech he made references to king and talked about how he wanted freedom for everyone, south africans. basically the reason for him coming here he wanted to pay whommage to king, and where it began as far as rites in the united states. the two powerhouses, one lying in the tune and the crypt. the other nelson mandela, months out of captivity, giving hits honour and whommage in la. >> in the day's ahead the world will remember nelson mandela for his courage and leadership. the process leading up to a burial is extensive, complicated. j

luther king, jr. those type of people don't come along very often. there's many remarkable things about him but in particular when you consider how he was treated as a captive and comes out. for 18 years of captivity he was allowed to see one person a year 30 minutes, send one letter and receive a letter every six months. most of us would have gone crazy. by the time we left we would have hated the people who kept us captive. he was this gentle peaceful man that led the reconciliation process where even the people that perpetrated human rights violations were given amnesty in return for coming clean. >> he's remarkable in three ways. the first as kirstin indicated. the courage that he showed as a captive. that makes him incredibly admiral. there are other prisoners of war and conscious from john mccain who similarly were heroic in captivity. what makes him unique is the two things he did when he rose and became a leader. the first is reconciliation. he preached no hatred of those who oppressed. the co

, taking a piece from martin luther king's speech. nelson mandela was praised and loved in atlanta. he made the visit because of the civil rights movement. he made a lot of references during that speech to his own country and south africa and the similarities between the civil rights movement in america. >> robert ray in atlanta for us. >> in 1990 nelson mandela visited new york city as we mentioned earlier following his release from prison. thousands gathered in harlem to hear him speak. john this afternoon, what can you tell us? >> a lot of people have been stopping buy just to share memories. as you mentioned it was 1990, 100,000 were in new york city. there was so much anticipation and people remember him stopping and pointing to the apollo theatre. you can see the marquee is up, it's been up since the news came out. it says in memory of nelson mandela, he changed our world. many remember in 1990 when they made the visit they had a marquee saying welcome mr and mrs nelson mandela. it was an electrifying time. there was a huge para

bernice king is the daughter of the reverend dr. martin luther king jr. she's joining us on the phone right now. dr. king, thanks very much for joining us. tell us about the impact, the role that nelson mandela had on your dad. >> well, my father unfortunately didn't get an opportunity to meet mr. mandela. but there was a bond in their freedom struggle. the struggles we were fighting for in america and the struggle they were fighting for in south africa. ironically next year will be celebrating the 60th anniversary of daddy receiving the nobel peace prize. just a few days before in london called for a worldwide movement of economic sanctions and for the fact that nelson mandela was languishing in prison. and so he identified with the south african struggle, the apartheid struggle obviously. and saw it uniquely and intimately similar to our struggle in america >> yes, he did indeed. your mother, dr. king, recalled there was a picture of nelson mandela when he came to the united states, and he laid a wreath at your father's grave. there's the picture right

he was something of a contemporary with martin luther king, junior and the parallels are rather striking an obvious. both of them believed in something and willing to fight and die for that something. he was the most humble, gentle man and he had an engaging smile. his eyes twinkled and this was a human being who had spent all that time in jail, who had all these difficulties, yet he kept his humanness and was willing to reach out to other parties, and so i was deeply moved every time i met with mr. mandela. but nothing was like his inauguration in may 1994 that i was privileged to attend and i saw there the real nelson mandela who came upon the stage generals ofthe four the south african defense force as his guard of honor which was a symbolic moment where the power of the state was being given to this lack man. oath ofup and gave his office and recognized his jailers in the front row and it was one of the most deeply moving moments in my experience as a diplomat and soldier. i was the first secretary of state that happened to be black. we have to get beyond these labels, depending upon

luther king jr. they both unrelenting. >> my dad was unrelenting and mr. mandela was unrelenting for his fight for justice and there are par parallels in those particular areas my dad used his voice to represent the poor and oppressed. president mandela used his voice to represent the poor and oppressed. there are many parallels between nelson mandela and martin luther king jr.. >> thank you very much. >>> actor david hai harewood portrayed nelson mandela. i spoke about how he played such an iconic role and how he prepared for it. >> initially e excited and then deep roll and and then you hit this fear. how do you play a myth. how do you play someone who has been so extraordinary in his life the only way you can approach it is to read as much as you can and watch as much as you can. day after day he revealed himself as the ultimate human being. the ultimate warrior and ultimate soldier. and the more i read the more i got to know him. and he became less of a myth and more of a man. more of a human bei

(laughter) besides, back people have their own holiday, it's martin luther king day. by the way, for any kids watching at 11:30 at night, martin luther king is black and he is real. (laughter) don't listen to your older siblings. everybody knows that if you're good once a year he comes in while you're sleeping and sprinkles you with dreams. (laughter) then he goes back to his mountain top castle on his flying table of brotherhood saying "merry m.l.k. day to all and to all good deals on mattresses!" we'll be right back.

(cheers and applause) hey, george, good to see you again. thanks for coming back. it's been one or six years since you were last here. good to see you. >> good to see you again, too. >> stephen: you're a "new yorker" staff writer. you're the author of "the assassin's gate" which was about america in iraq. now you'

maybe when we have martin luther king day he will be a white guy. this idea that everybody has to be included is meritless. >> you are saying that -- you know that martin luther king jr. was not a white guy. he is a black man. scholars are telling you that jesus is not a white man but you won't concede that point? >> i'm saying that hollywood has depicted him that way and the great artists have for hundreds of years. if you have a problem take it up with them. >> hollywood in american movies have made him look american and european artists made him look european. but there is something larger here that connects megan kelly's comments. >> how did megan get into this again. >> what she saying and what a lot of people mean when they say santa or jesus is white is that santa or jesus is mine. >> how would you know what megan kelly thinks? how do you know about megan kelly's motive? how do you know that? >> what i'm saying -- >> you -- >> you just answered the question. what i'm saying is that in the very terminology of the way that we define these icons

>> i think he and gandhi and in america martin luther king are in a category by themselves. gandhi and king were martyred. but the agonizing ordeal of nelson mandela for 27 years and how he came out of it a better man than he went in captured the imagination of people as nothing else had. his enduring power is that he showed us that there is true freedom in forgiveness. and in the mental and emotional discipline to live in the present and think of the future. >> part of our conversation with the former president from his home this morning. by the way, the clintons will join the obamas along with george w. bush and laura bush at nelson mandela's memorial services in south africa. president bush senior is unable to make the long journey. former president carter has yet to release his plans. >>> in this country for millions of americans tonight, the news is a massive ice storm churning through the center of the country east of the mississippi river, most of it. several deaths are already being blamed on the storm, and it's going to be a big factor on into the weekend. we begin

here is a freedom fighter who represents the closest thing to martin luther king's courage that i will ever meet. but i was stuck outside until someone yelled to me that the mayor was asking for me. they let me back in city hall and i moved through the hallways now filled with his entourage to see what the mayor needed. i am looking for a glimpse of nelson mandela and winnie myself. of all the celebrities and personalities, nelson mandela wanted to meet with mohamed ali and sydney party a -- sidney poitier, i went outside to insideali and poitier the mayor's office. my heart was beating so fast i went outside and secured them, as i had been told. doori opened the security that led to the mayor's office, and the entourage saw ali and them,r walking toward i cannot explain the dancing and the chance and the love and the joy and the full ecstasy in that hallway as we walked to nelson mandela and winnie mandela. it is not about the breath that we take but the moments that take our breath away, those precious memories. thise relieved -- relived countless times. when i remember this i get jo

. >> this was a project when i saw this photograph at the martin luther king center in atlanta in 1992 and realized that this photograph was iconic representation of the sick and and i knew the woman in the center of the photograph. i had met her through her children 20 years before in arlington virginia when i was a playground director and i knew at that moment in the context of all of the iconic civil rights paraphernalia at the king center this is a story that needed to be told so i decided at that moment to go home and start interviewing my friend and find out about. >> did you recognize her in the picture and had she already talked about this experience and sit in? >> i recognized her in the photograph because the children had a total out on occasion and said my mother is a famous photograph, so why didn't really understand how significant that photograph was until i saw the context. >> and what did you learn about the civil rights movement that you hadn't known before? >> what is interesting about this story is that she is a southern white woman who came to see her family and for

martin luther king. a man who struggles and accomplishments in a world away in a sense paralleled those of mandela's. bernice king joins me to talk about it. such a pleasure. nice to have you on. >> thank you, brooke. glad to be here. >> let's begin with when you were 27. it was 1990, and that was the year mandela was released, and you had this realization as a 27-year-old, this man had been in prison your entire life. >> my entire life. >> your entire life, and you decide to go to south africa because you wanted to hear him speak. what were you listening for? >> well, i was listening for any traces of anger, any traces of bitterness, because i was still wrestling at that point with a lot of anger and bitterness in my own life because of my losses. and i just knew this man had to have some. and so i told my mom, i wanted to go to the inauguration. and she said, well, she can't afford to pay for it, and i told her at that time because i had been doing some public speaking, i said, i'll pay for it. i did j

with great leaders like martin luther king and malcolm x, there will be efforts to convert mandela into a very safe character in order to advance the ends of the global elite. the battle over mandela's legacy will not await his burial nor will it await a period of mourning. it happens immediately. and for that reason, how we interpret his life and work will determine which nelson mandela we are actually recognizing and praising. mandela will be missed, but we cannot end our thought there. we must express our appreciation to the creator of all things that this planet was blessed with nelson mandela and those who stood with him in the global elite declared the situation [speaker not understood]. i never thought nelson mandela would be released from jail, and then he appeared in oakland at the oakland coliseum in 1990. that was probably one of the best days of my life. but i just wanted to end with a song, so many songs uplift me from peter gabriel to jerry damers and the special to sun city [speaker not understood] including [speaker not understood], jeffery osborne and others, but i'll j

he was a man in the mold of gandhi and martin luther king. a revolutionary who spent nearly a third of his life behind bars so his country would be free. flags have been lowered to half-staff in washington and all over the country. reaction has poured in from all corners from global leaders to activists to ordinary men and women remembering nelson mandela. >> our nation has lot of its greatest son. our people have lot of a father. >> let us pause and give thanks to the fact that nelson mandela lived. a man who took history in his hands and bent the ark of the moral universe towards justice. >> thank you for the gift. >> what an extroerdary and inspiring man else in an mandela was. >> going from being in prison on the list of many nations and been the most moral authority in the world was quite a journey. >> he was a stranger to hate. he rejected incrimination in favor of reconciliation and he knew the future demands required that we move beyond the place that he had been. >> let us honor his memory in a dignified way as his leadership they de

spoiler alert. >> well, let me say, i was very surprised at what you drew out of martin luther king's experience, and i found it very upsetting. >> it's supposed to be upsetting. i'm not -- i don't disagree with your reaction. i'm not going to give away the ending but just say that i tell a story about the civil rights movement in birmingham? how did they win? and the answer is they made a trick, trick that made people very uncomfortable at the time, that led to widespread criticism along the way of martin luther king, and continues to make people uncomfortable today. you and me. i can't even -- i will cornifies find that a little bit -- [inaudible] >> the trick is openly admitted to by bryan walker, king's number two canner so the man who played the trick, after it succeeded, was very frank about what he did. he did many, many interviews in which he described bree sizely how hey -- precisely how the pulled the wool over the eyes of the press. it's not a -- it's not a secret or a kind of speculative conclusion. it's what this guy, this remarkable guy, wyatt walker, brilliant guy, stay

. >> guest: i got this into project when i saw this photograph at the martin luther king center in atlanta in 1992. finish and realized that this photograph was an iconic representation of the sit-in movement. and i knew the woman at the center of that photograph. i had met her through her children 20 years before in arlington, virginia, when i was a playground director, and her kids came to the playground. and i knew at that moment when i saw the photograph in the context of all the iconic civil rights paraphernalia at the king center that this was a story that needed to be told and hadn't been really amplified. so i decided at that moment to go home and start interviewing my friend joan and find out more about it. >> host: so did you recognize her in the picture when you first saw it, or had she already talked to you about this experience? >> reporter: >> guest: , well, i recognized the photo, but i really didn't understand how significant that photo was until i saw in context at the king center. >> host: and what had you, what did you learn from her about the civil rights movement that

luther king spoke there, he said in america, one day basic black and troubled white would be on the constitution keyboard, when you go to the turkey bowl, think of the people who have come here in san francisco, what are we really doing in san francisco, black and white born here yesterday, how significant is it that he would be here on the day of kennedy assassination. we need to give thanks and make sure that this board and this building, this city does on the west coast accept all people. you know things are not going right and you can make the change. make that change, the man in the mirror, we add the board of supervisors and the mayor, every day is thanksgiving for someone, gobble, gobble, gobble, ho, ho, ho. >> thank you, have there any other members who wish to speak in general public comment. if noted, general public comment is closed. >> item 36-44 are considered for adoption. >> colleagues, would anybody like the sever any of these items. seeing none, could you take a roll on the adoption calendarbacker dar? >> on items 36z through 44 had, supervisor breed, aye. superviso

for people who may not know you and martin luther king jr. came up together in the civil rights movement, helped create it. today, you called the selection of judicial nominees from the first black president insulting. why? >> well, for instance, only one of the appointments is african-american. you consider since 1978 when we got the first african-american, that's all we've had, total number of three appointments. that's not fair. that's not judicial. that's not democratic. so we're asking the president and we recognize that somebody in his administration has done him a disservice in giving him these names, and he made a mistake in accepting them. we're asking him to reconsider his appointments and give us a slate of people who are representative of georgia, in particular the northern district, where we stand, where most african-americans are located. they only gave us one and for a long, long time, we had none. and we're asking that this group be diverse, they be fair and they be judicial. >> you're not just some stranger to the president.
