they did nothing wrong, nonviolence, very peaceful, and yet they were threats to america according to j. edgar hoover. when you look at the kinds of fights that are happening now on civil rights issues, narrowly defined. for example, this fight is over voting rights in north carolina and texas. there is attorney general eric holder weighing in. that's happening at the official level. how much do you feel like the unofficial response, the sort of movement response, the activist response, even the political response is in inheritance from that civil rights movement, do we reinvent ourselves every time we fight these guys. >> it's different, i've never seen an attorney general as great as eric holder. he's going after arizona a couple years ago, he's going after texas, going to go after north carolina, i have no doubt about that somebody who has that integrity, says the government is here to protect people, not to go after people, he's talking about reducing sentences.
