Thats tuesday night at 8 00 eastern on cspan3. Follow the cspan cities tour as we travel outside the washington beltway to communities across america. The idea behind the cities tour is to take the programming for htv, or American History television and book tv out on the road beyond the beltway to produce pieces that are more visual, that provide a window into these cities that viewers would normally go to that also have really rich histories and a rich literary scene, as well. A lot of people have already kind of heard the history of the big cities, like new york and l. A. , chicago. But what about the smaller ones like albany, new york. Whats the history of that . Theyve been to over 75 cities. We will have hit 95 cities in april of 2016. Most of our cspan is event coverage. These are not event coverage type of pieces. Theyre shorter. They take you some place. They take you to a home, a historic site. We partner with our cable affiliate to explore the history and literary culture of various cities. The key entry into the city is the cable operator who contacts the city. In essence, its the cable industry bringing us there. Theyre really looking for great characters. You really want your viewers to be able to identify with these people that were talking about. Its an experiential type of program where were taking people on the road to places where they can touch things, see things, and learn about not just the local history, because a lot of local history plays into the national story. If somebody is watching this, it should be enticing enough that they can get the idea of the story. But also this is just in our backyard. Lets go and see it. We want viewers to get a sense that, oh, yeah, i know that place just from watching one of our pieces. Mission as we do with all of our coverage, leads into what we do out of the road. Youve got to be able to communicate the message about this network in order to do this job. So its done the one thing that we wanted it to do, which is build relationships with the city and our Cable Partners and gather some great programming for American History tv and book tv.

Television for serious readers. In 1968 following the assassination of Martin Luther king jr. And subsequent riot yots that devastated parts of washington, d. C. , the office of Economic Opportunity which administered many of Lyndon Johnsons war or poverty programs created a project as a model to help improve poor relations between the police and community. According to the national c archives, they commissioned a series of documentary and training films to record the implementation of the project, hoping they could be shown and used as a model for other cities. Despite investing almost 200,000, they were never released, but were september to a warehouse in maryland. Up next on reel america, three short pilot District Training films that are recently rediscovered and digitized by the national archives. The project, the development of community control, is a 15minute film featuring 32yearold activist marion berry, who later became mayor of the district of columbia. Old people, young people, poor people, all of whom live in the Third District and is not fair for these scitizens to be left out of the picture. Down in our basement, people be hitting people in the head. I dont think any other people in the america could take this kind of stuff. Drive anybody to be a ref aleutian nair. What do you think about the poe liss . They aint nothing but pigs, man. Like they picked me up just because i wasnt in school and like that. So, i said, what youll going to do with me. Going to take you to the pig pen. I said, no, you aint. You going to take me to my aunt. So, he said, all right. All right. I said, so he took down my name. I said, man, yall aint nothing but pigs, yall know that . Told it right to their face. The question always comes when you live in a community thats repressed and people are living like we have to live in a black community, how are you going to handle all these problems. If you solve them by trying to create citizens awareness of a need for graphic change. Washingtons third police district. There is contrast here. From embassy road to devastated 14th street. Violence in the spring rye rots of 1968. An average week in this district will bring 40 robbery, 16 aggravated all thes and a high incidence of rape and arson. 18 addict this is year will die from overdose. By fall of 1968, a committee had chosen this sight for a new idea with high hope and more than a million dollars, the plan was this. Erode suspicious and fear among police and the people. Find ways of helping the police force to be part of the community again. But there were those in the Third District whom the experiment was dangerously flawed. Revisions were unclear. They feared the trick bag. Another signal that the black community could not be held responsible for change. Among the leaders who fashioned war against the project was one man who would see ilt through. Marian berry. 32 years old, former teacher of college chemistry, director of a black corporation called pride, marian berry had a strategy for community control. Told him i could see him in about two minutes. I got a message. Where . In his office . This is the other part of the Third District. I mean, you can see the difference. The streets. Cleaner. This is the more affluent side of the Third District. Again, in most urban cities, youve got that twosided situation. Youve got where we live, 14th street, other parts of the black community and then you got this part of the community. These are the people who are not oppressed. They dont live in the kind of skau lehr that we do. These are the people crying for more protection, more dogs, more guns, more policemen, more jails. Harsher sentences because theyre the ones whose homes are being burglarized and they dont have to do the things we have to do. They dont have to go to meetings and disrupt them. They dont have to break up meetings, kick down the doors, protest the way we do. Now, the question is how do you revolve these two conflicts and points of view, where this part of the Community Wants more policemen, more repressiveness and the other part wants less policemen. Physical presence. They want more humane treatment. More reha bil tbilitative kind programs and thats what i think we have to deal with and since this is where the problem is not as such, i think we have to act on where the problem is. I would like us to take up the business at hand and the business at hand is to choose a preset. We need to be talking about how were going to do this. I cannot longer serve on a committee which cannot possibly make changes if it functions only in an advisory capacity. To people out there, theyre not sophisticated as you people in here and theyre going to be in the trick bag. Im going to be with them. Im not saying im resigning, but any kind of understanding, send me a letter, come back here and get together on this thing, please. Previous question. We are here to select a precept, but whether we realize it or not, we have more power in this room and watching on one committee in a long time and when you break it down in the precinct level, thats how it is. Thats why im having to really push it here. You dont get that power. Control. And selfdetermination by just talking about it because those who have it are not willingly going to give it up and therefore, you have to find various ways of seizing it, really. Taking it or convincing them they ought to give it to them. And unfortunately, only thing we have and i will command is our bodies. And our voices. The only kind of thing that the system seems to understand is when you organize that kind of a con tronation politics. Thats what we did in the 1960s and thats the way the country operates. This country got started on using disruptive kind of tactics that was a revolution, so i learned that from america. Anything i do. This meeting was called to discuss the freed yurs and to take action on the procedures on the election of the board. Mr. Berry to come in. Go right in. How are you . Who made him chairman any way . Mister, im the host. You cant make yourself chairman. What kind of meeting you got going on in here . A meeting with bunch of you folks supposed to be protecting the this is my invitation. Sir we can conduct it in the Third District and i live and work in the Third District, dig it . And i deserve the right to be here, they going to come in here as long as im here. That is all planned. The issue raised on the inside would be why these people ought to come in. Which makes them think wli they in the meeting, those that plan the meeting and those that didnt. The crowd. Im not afraid after of him. The issue is whether people outside can come in. We want the people outside inside. Thats all. I aint going to harm you. I wont touch you if you dont touch me. Believe that. See that . Thats down to the wire, everybody. There is no way that anybody can come in to the Third District, see the gunman and have a meeting against our will. It just wont happen. We told that they was on their own, come into our community and do what they want to do. Thats the issue, so my idea, lets keep pushing and keep fighting until they get control of it. Its very simple. Going on. At some point, i dont think we can do and another thing, for those of you that are new, it has taken us 15 months to go t. O. Get this far sork a lot what you might be thinking, a lot of questions you might have, just rest assured that we are working from experience and were going to do everything we can to protect the interest of
