CNN: Video: Crossfire: Debating The Minimum Wage
Kire Schneider on Google+ The New Democrat on Facebook The New Democrat on Twitter You would think people who call themselves conservatives (and I say that because it is debatable whether these people are conservatives), but to finish this point, you would think these so-called conservatives who are opposed to public assistance or even the minimum wage would be in favor of raising it modestly,…

“Van Jones on racial justice” by Tara Brach
Click on the “Expand” button to read the rest of the transcript by CCKN
[0:00] Van Jones: I’m glad that we’re doing this this week.
[0:03] If we had done this
[0:06] a week ago, I probably couldn’t have...
[0:08] couldn’t have been a part of it. 
[0:09] Just because there was so much heartbreak. 
[0:14] I think the world saw something that’s been happening 
[0:17] in our country for... centuries...
[0:20] saw a black man 
[0:22] lynched by a white man.
[0:26] That’s what that was, that - that video.
[0:27] And it broke us,
[0:31] that broke the black community
[0:34] to watch something like that happen. 
[0:37] One minute.
[0:38] Two minutes.
[0:41] Three minutes.
[0:44] Four minutes. 
[0:46] Five minutes. 
[0:48] Starts calling out for his mother,
[0:49] his mother’s been dead for years. 
[0:51] Six minutes. 
[0:53] Urinating on himself,
[0:55] begging for his life. 
[0:57] 15 times, “I can’t breathe.”
[0:58] Community screaming in horror. 
[1:00] Eight minutes and 46 seconds. 
[1:07] These videos have been a part of American life now for
[1:09] almost seven-eight years. 
[1:!2] IT was always so, “Well, it was a quick decision
[1:15] and cops gotta defend himself.
[1:16] He was talking back, he was fighting back.
[1:17] What’d you want?
[1:18] What’d you expect, you know?
[1:19] Can’t second guess the police,”
[1:20] But this one, this one. 
[1:25] Filed from beginning to end. 
[1:29] Stunned the world.
[1:31] And for all of the times that we have been lynched,
[1:34] we’ve never had a situation where 
[1:36] a billion people could see it all at the same time
[1:39] on their smartphones.
[1:42] And it shoved a piece of glass into the eyeball of everybody on the planet
[1:48] and it hurt - it hurt them.
[1:50] People couldn’t sleep,
[1:53] having seen it, they couldn’t rest.
[1:57] And if we had tried to have this conversation a week ago,
[2:00] we probably couldn’t have.
[2:04] But a miracle is taking place. 
[2:08] A miracle is taking place.
[2:11] A continent of new common ground has 
[2:15] emerged from beneath the waves where
[2:19] there are twenty-thirty-forty million 
[2:22] white Americans saying,
[2:24] “racism is real,
[2:26] more real than I thought.
[2:29] There’s something wrong with our justice system. 
[2:30] It’s more broken than I knew.
[2:34] What can I do about it?”
[2:35] As an African-American man, 
[2:40] it’s a miracle. 
[2:43] It’s all I’ve wanted is to be acknowledged. 
[2:49] That what is happening is happening,
[2:51] and that we need to do something about it. 
[2:54] And now we are in the middle of something we don’t know what it is. 
[2:58] We don’t even have a name for it. 
[3:00] You know the Civil Rights Movement at the beginning. 
[3:04] At first it was just people trying to fix a problem
[3:06] and later on they called it the Civil Rights Group. 
[3:10] We don’t know what this is. 
[3:14] NASCAR says they’re not gonna let confederate flags fly anymore. 
[3:19] The NFL is apologizing 
[3:22] for not supporting Colin Kaepernick’s peaceful protests 
[3:26] years ago when he was trying to call attention to this. 
[3:29] You have people, corporations
[3:31] across the world saying “Black Lives Matter”.
[3:37] What is this?
[3:39] We don’t even know what - we don’t know what to call this. 
[3:43] 1964
[3:45] they called it Freedom Summer when those students
[3:48] went south to register voters.
[3:49] Some were killed, some were beaten, 
[3:51] but they changed history. 
[3:52] But they didn’t call it Freedom Summer then, they called it - 
[3:55] it was two years later when a book came out 
[3:57] called Freedom Summer.
[3:58] They didn’t know they were in Freedom Summer. 
[4:02] So we’re in some awakening,
[4:04] some great awakening. 
[4:06] We’re much more as possible 
[4:10] than we had dared to hope for.
 [4:21] Somebody killed a black man
[4:23] and everybody cares. It’s a miracle.
[4:30] It’s never happened, it’s never happened. 
[4:34] Somebody killed a black man
[4:36] and everybody cares. 
[4:40] [Van Jones sighs]
[4:42] I wish my parents were here to see this.
