but america's different. precisely because america is founded on an idea, one nation under god, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. not rooted in a racial or ethnic identity. america is always changing, but still's days the same. the land of the free and the home of the brave. if there comes a time when white people are no longer the majority in america, as long as immigration is controlled and as long as immigration is a company by integration so everyone here signs up for america's laws and values, it's not something to fear or fight. the real fight is not white versus brown or whatever color you want to mention, the right fight is against the elitist in both parties and throughout our establishment. for decades i have stolen the american dream for themselves. as i explained in my new book, it's a fight for better jobs and high incomes, good schools, affordable healthcare and decent housing, strong families, strong communities, clean, accountable government and power back into the people's hands.

but this is also america. a country where 17 kids can be murdered, and not even a third of our legislature and congress bats an eye. i don't know about you all, but after february 14, my life changed forever. i remember that day like it was yesterday. i was in my favorite class, drama class. you could say i am an actor. not a crisis one, but still an actor. i was with my best friends. in a class where you bond like that, it really feels like family. i remember we were doing the kids show. we were practicing to perform for the local elementary school. then, at about 2:30 the -- in the afternoon, the fire alarm rang. it was a little strange to me then. i remember earlier that day, the fire alarm had rang. i knew something had to be off. the kids started walking at its -- as usual. we are taught fire alarm drills, active shooter drills. it is a part of school now. as the kids and i walked out, got to the door that is when all , hell broke loose. screaming, crying. things that i should have never seen or heard or

the most dangerous word in america, words in america are not the n word. it's black on black crime. black people kill black people. white people kill white people. asians kill asians. husbands kill wives. wives kill husbands. virtually every crime 2 to 1 black to white. how is it all of a sudden -- the department of justice came out with a study that said that black people and white people commit crimes about the same level, we get harshest sentences for them. i said this earlier, the most dangerous place for us to live in their imagination. they have said the same things about black people when we were under their control in slavery, from jim crow to everything. we have been the same person to them, in the same circumstances. that can't be. >> i think you pointed out in the book that 83% of homicides committed against white folks are committed by white folks. and so -- >> right. >> there's white on white crime because basically proximity is the biggest determination of criminal conduct >> absolutely. >> yet, as you have illustrated black on black crime somehow has become the boogie
