Heroes. The hero of the tragic waffle house shooting in tennessee. James shaw jr. Hes going to be here tonight and i want to play favorites because you know all School Teachers are amazing, including my mother. Hi, mama. Youre amazing. But tonight, we have americas teacher of the year. She got invited to the white house, but i dont think President Trump expected what he got from her. She slipped him a powerful message from her students who are immigrant and refugee children. So i think i now know why the press was not allowed to cover her speech, but the amazing Mandy Manning is here tonight. Shes going to talk to us any way. Its a great show. Great show. That is a fact and speaking of facts, lets talk because powerful people have been spewing lies at a record rate this week. We are seeing selfserving dishonesty that the highest places and none more than in white house. Remember the preelection do doctorss note that proclaimed trump would be the healthiest individual ever elected president . We learned it was a fake note that trump himself made up. Now were just sighing all the zigzag crazy contradictions toefr hush money the trump team gave to a porn star. I cant keep wup with the story and i dont know what Rudy Giuliani is doing. We got day after day, lie after lie from this administration on big topics, on little topics. The Washington Post wrote this week that donald trump has told more than 3,000 lies since he took office. We should all care about this. At the top of our government, but because you got so much stuff on the line. You know, policy, how were going to when regular people lie, they face real consequences. What would happen if your child made up a doctors note to get out of class . Probably get suspended and get grounded when they got home. Sent thousands of dollars to somebody and changing their explanations. That wouldnt work out too well. American, we know whats right and whats wrong in the real world and we deserve better than this. Our leaders should know right from wrong. But heres the good news. While the folks at the top keep throwing their integrity in garbage can, every day people keep doing the wrigright thing twochlt men were wrongfully arrested at starbucks. This week, they chose to settle the case with the city of philadelphia, but for themselves, they only took 1 each. They insisted though that hundreds of thousands of dollars go to set up a Training Program for young entrepreneurs. They put others first and turned a pad thing for themselves into good thing for other people. I love stuff like that. And my next guest also knows something about putting other people first. To grab an ar15 out of the hands of a crazy gunman who opened fire in tennessee, killed four people. That carnage would have been much worse without my next guest. Please welcome a man of integrity, james shaw jr. Hey. Good to see you, man. Tell you what. First of all, youre making us tennessee boys look good. Appreciate that. The question i think people have when they think about you, the gunman was killing people. He stopped firing. Hes trying to reload. Trying to do, he didnt know you were there. The door in the book in the door, behind me was nothing but a brick wall. I felt like he might find me. I was looking for an opportunity and i took it. Glad it worked out for me. Glad it worked out. You dont like ta word, but youre heroism didnt stop that night not for yourself, your family, your fortune, but to help all the other people who were there. Why how did you like that, thinking about everybody but yourself . I pledged an so i wanted the help out and i know that the money is not going to do anything for the actual loss of life. Actual loss of life, but it can be a gesture just to help that family try to get through this tough time. You know, you touched the whole world. All you have to say is waffle house hero. Everybody knows who you are. Have you heard from President Trump . At the time, i havent heard anything, but thats not to say he didnt try to contact me or not. I havent heard anything. He hasnt successfully contacted you, but gave a shoutout to kanye today. No shoutout to you. How do you feel when the president of the United States misses an the opportunity to hold up you know, somebody whos trying to do good stuff like you . I know he has a busy agenda, busy schedule. Maybe he just hasnt got around to me. Maybe my time is coming. Its not for me to judge really what he does. Its just you know, i did what i did and i didnt really do it for recognition. Just to save my life, honestly. Amazing. A lot of people who are survivors of these attacks like the parkland kids, theyre very, very strong on gun control. Whats your view . The underlying problem of it before you get to the gun problem is the Mental Illness or its some kind of Public Health problem. And if you can try to focus on that person and you can try to make that person mentally better, then you wont get to that. It wont be that kind of violence. Now we had a conversation in tennessee and you were talk iin about cars. In different cars are appropriate in different circumstances and maybe race cars are appropriate on the racetrack, but not in a neighborhood. Would you apply that to different types of weapons . I dont have any type of problem with handgun. Shotgun, your hunting rifle. A formula one race car, m16223s, all the special specific guns are meant for people that have some kind of training. If you want to shoot that gun, thats your right to want to shoot that gun. Let them go to the target range and you can shoot them. But for you to just simply want to own that and you dont have any kind of training and youre reliable for that, to be reb liable for and the its possible death could happen. Look, you know, in that moment, i just think about that. Do you wish that you had a gun . I mean, youre in a situation. Somebodys got a gun. Youre unarmed. Im always curious in that moment, dont you wish you had like a bazooka or flame thrower or something . You know, its going to sound weird. No. Because when people see me, even though they call me a herhero, want you to emulate that fire i have inside myself. If i had a gun, it would be just good guy took down the bad guy. Since i didnt have a gun, its more touch iing to people. Im really happy pi how i can touch people throughout the world. We were together, people were coming up to us and wanted me to take your picture with them. That hurt my feelings. Im the tv star. Youre getting all the love. Terrible. We were in nashville. We were in nashville. How are you dealing with that . Thats a big change. You were on these big tv shows. Got stars trying to give you money. Thats, thats its a definitely a when i will wind. Not something im used to. Im just an engineer and electrician right before this and now i cant really walk too far down the street or especially in the airport, but you know, doesnt really bother me. Ill take pictures with you. That doesnt bother me. What bothers me is like when people look at me and dont say nothing. Come on over, break ice. Hows your daughter . 4 yaerl daughter . So my 4yearold daughter, shes good. Shes with the school. Her classmates and her, they all made he cards. They called me hero. Now for little kids, i dont care if they call me hero, because thats a really big thing for them, their heroes, but for adults, i want you to see if youre ever in that situation that a regular guy did it. That you can do that, too. Thats beautiful. So im glad that you didnt run away from the gunman but i would be even more glad if you were to run for higher office. You know. Nashville could use a good mayor. Tennessee could use a good governor. Tennessee could use some good senators. Got any interest in that, mister, peoples hero . Maybe president. Hone honestly, havent really thought about it. Its just been joked around with. Some of me and my colleagues and close friends. But well see what the future holds. It makes me happy to hear its even an opportunity because we need people with integrity in high office and youre right to always say it takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun, but sometimes it takes a good man with a good heart to stop a bad guy with a gun. Thats what you are, so thank you so much. Thank you. Now everybodys been talking about kanye west all week. Whether you love him or hate him. He sparking a ton of debate and whether black voters should give trump a chance. Well talk about that with two young black activists. Before we hear from them, i want to hear from you about the kanye controversy. Heres what you had to say. I want to say that it was a choice, i dont think that was right because if slavery was a choice would not happen at all because they would not have to go through all the discrimination and all the hurt they have gone through. If the Democratic Party knows they have our vote easily, they could just as easily talk around us. In this current state, however, the Republican Party is not viable for the black community.

So like it or not, everybody is still talking b about kanye west this week. President trump even gave kanye a shoutout and claimed he had doubled his africanamerican poll numbers because of kanye west. Now look, this whole thing could be just a big publicity stunt by kanye because hes got a record coming out, but he did tap into something here. Now what he said about slavery stuff is like just flat out wrong and crazy period. But problems do persist with within many black communities after decades of voting for democrats. There is some frustration, desperation, even resignation that too little has changed. Now some people are wondering if its time to give the other party a chance. Lets just talk about it. Have a real conversation. So weve got lawrence jones, beautiful last name, whos a conservative activist. And political commentator and brittney, an educator for police reform. She was part of president obamas task force on policing. So now listen. First, establish common ground. Was slavery a choice . No. Absolutely not. No. Round of applause. We agree on something. Agree on that. At all. Sister harriet said no. Good. Okay. So you know people are mad at kanye about his comment on slavery. They were mad at him the day before, too, when he was expressing love for President Trump. Is it now come pupulsory to be black person to hate President Trump . Is is that where we are now . I think theres a conversation about the Republican Party then theres a conversation about donald trump. Theres fact and fiction. Fiction is certainly that slavery was a choice, but there are facts here b about how he won this office. That have been detrimental, not just to black people, but to marichc marginalized people all over the world. Calling african countries and haiti [ bleep ] holes. Who has continued to uphold this idea of Police Violence and allow it to be pervasive across the country. Those are real issues. So trump has done a lot of bad stuff. The Republican Party has had a negative history in some ways. But do you think that kanye has a point when he says maybe we should be spreading our bet. If we are only voting for one party, the other party can write us off. No malcolm said that. You think he was right . Of course. I think there is, look, let me first off start by saying this. Because im on the right. The Republican Party has failed black families by not going into the community and focusing on issues that matter to them. Black republicans have failed the black community because there are some of them that have this genuine interest to help the community and there are some that dont. They see it as a benefit. I think what we can do, a personal benefit. But there are some of us fighting for our community and we have done a poor job at letting our Community Know were fighting for them. Let me ask you a question. Thats very well said except youve got people in your party that said this party is like in its the party of steve ban p. Why are not not doing more to clean out the people in the party who should not be in anybodys political party. Im not a part of the party. Im not a republican member. Im a conservative. Im a libertarian. I can disagree with my party. I let grown men defend themselves, but what i am about is the issues that impact my community and so whatever i can do to speak up to talk about the issues that matter to them, because although we criticize the Republican Party, the democrats aint done that well for black folks either. They get our vote, but dont deliver. We have to have an honest conerer sags. When i was a young democrat, i remember you showing up to the conferences before i switched to the right and we had the same complaints about the Democratic Party. There are a whole lot of party who arent doing right by black folks. What were talk about though is freedom being bigger than a party. The Democratic Party has been far more willing to move forward on the issues that we bring to bear than the Republican Party has, but at the end of the day, i think we need to be talking about how were doing this work from the ground up. How we are making sure its not just who were voting for, but who were running in those seats. We know there are lot of folks who come and knock on the door every four years and like janet said, what have you done for me lately. Thats what black communities have done every day. About their future, their children, their livelihood. Thats fine. Let me ask you a political question. Theres a gap now between africanamerican men and africanamerican women on this question. 96 of black women voted for hillary clinton. 88 of black men voted for hillary clinton. Thats almost a tenpoint spread. Why are black men more open to to this message than black women . Well i think that we have to recognize the intersection at which black women exist. We deal not only with racism, but sexism almost defer every day and accusations. The idea were always strong and we never hurt or cry. There are unique issues to being a black woman that make us see things differently. But i think if we think about the fact that black women are often right, i would like to say. Not going to disagree. We can look at the victory of doug jones in alabama. It was owed a great deal to black women. Lets be clear. Black men are choosing their families. I would choose wealth over poverty any day and i think thats the opening. I can tell a conservative a long time before kanye arrived that hip hop is the way. The Republican Party told me hip hop was the destruction of the republican family. But i saw the message that theyve been rapping about this for a lopg time. Thats what the black men are saying. Im going to push it because i dont think any black mom is is out here saying they want their family to be experience ing the violence of poverty. What i will say though is that we have to recognize that all of the answers weve been talking about to economics like education, actual dont move racism out of the way. So what we know to be b true is that a White High School dropout still has more wealth than a black college graduate. We cant erase the things or ignore the things that often conservatives in the Republican Party wants to erase. Im not trying to remove racism. Like some people, i believe it exists. I i allow, i do not allow racism to control me or theres going to always be races. So we can only control our own destiny. I think thats what some of us are saying. I think thats a hard thing to argue with. But then in controlling your own destiny, how do you defend being a trump supporter . I dont defend a grown men. I told you at the beginning. I didnt vote for the president. We need black folks at the table to talk about issues that are going to impact us and so the president and his administration have been willing to talk now. People that even disagree wd the president are talking about those issues. But you know and i know that a lot of things that President Trump said, a lot of the things the Republican Party has allowed to go are hurtful and offensive to people. Not weak people. People who are tough and strong, but who feel hurt by this. How can you align yourself of a president who speak this is way about people of color. I support my values. Thats it. I cant control, there are people who have these negative comments. Hes a grown man and im not going to go on national tv and have some black conservative defend every single thing. I was hurt about charlottesville as well, but ill still choose wealth any day over poverty. I think that the Democratic Party has to answer for this. Two questions. Can we at least, trying to find more common ground. Justice reform. Whats republican solution on some of these Police Policing issues . I hate when you say the republican. Libertarian. Look. As a libertarian, i dont believe we should be giving government that much power. My first job was working in juvenile court. Theres no issue that i have more passion for. What do democrats need to do to keep black support . What do they need to do dimptly to keep black support . Sfwl sf invest in grass roots. What do you mean grass roots . They show up, just dont delivered. Grass roots delivered for doug jones. In ferguson, baltimore, sacramento and cleveland. Theyve been dlelivering every day. We know that people know how to get out the vote. If you invest in the black leadership on the ground. Thats what the democrats need to do. They need to invest those dollars because we need to have conversations with each other, but after they invest their money in us, they need to list b b toen us i need investing their money in the community, not xcampaigns. I want when you walk down the street, you see charter school, its not just to the teachers union, but its to the kids. A lot of love. When we come back, talking to blackish star, tracy ellis ross, how shes standing up for women and what its like to grow up as the daughter of the iconic diana ross. When we get back. I like it, i love it, i want some more of it. I try so hard, i cant rise above it dont know what it is bout that little gals lovin. But i like it, i love it, i want some more of it we know you love it, so get more of it, with applebees new bigger bolder grill combos. Now thats eatin good in the neighborhood. Oh very nice. Now im turning into my dad. I text in full sentences. I refer to every child as chief. This hat was free. What am i supposed to do, not wear it . Next thing you know, im telling strangers defense wins championships. Well, it does. Right . Why is the door open . Are we trying to air condition the whole neighborhood . At least i bundled home and auto on an internet website, progressive. Com. Progressive cant save you from becoming your parents, but we can save you money when you bundle home and auto. I mean, why would i replace this . Its not broken. I mean, why would i replace this . If youd have told me three years ago. That wed be downloading in seconds, what used to take. Minutes. That guests would compliment our wifi. That we could video conference. And do it like that. snaps if youd have told me that i could afford. A gigspeed. A gigspeed network. Its like 20 times faster than what most people have. Id of said. Id of said youre dreaming. Dreaming definitely dreaming. Then again, dreaming is how i got this far. Now more businesses in more places can afford to dream gig. Comcast, building americas largest gigspeed network. Everybody said feels like theres a black renaissance happening. Not just talking about the black panther. Empire, blackish. Which lead me to my next guest. Shes not just the daughter of d diana ross, shes the golden glo globe winning actress. Really tough stuff like policing, the history of slavery, ooempb marital problems. Take a look. Your mother and i are not getting a divorce. Were just taking some space. Just taking some space. Totally temporary. Totally cool. Nothing to worry about. Nothing to worry b about. No need to tell your friends our teachers because they dont need to know. This is totally temporary. Totally temporary. And nothing to worry about. Nothing to worry about. Yeah. Good to have you u on. Big fan of yours. Im a big fan of yours, too. We are now supposed to accept the one beautiful functioning, thriving black family is going to get busted up . Youve got to unpack hard things. Its supposed to be b a sit come. Its hard enough right now. Exactly. Stuff is hard right now. Exactly. Feels very volatile right now. Why you got to make yeah. Tell us why. The family you guys represent is now kind of the iconic africanamerican family. And also the iconic africanamerican family. That used to be the cosbiey huxtabl huxtables. There was a wonderful article written in the New York Times about cosby. And theres this sense of cleaving like this separation that has to occur. Do the cosbys still exist without the cosby show . Listen, you are in that role now. For a whole generation of people. Your family is the iconic flbla family. How did it hit you . Youre l also a leader in me too. Its such a nuance, i dont know that i, in all honesty, im still processing it and i dont know that i have a desire to process it publicly. Ill leave it at that. So look, i just, some other issues that youve taken on with humor and grace and important issues. On the show and not me. So not me. Weve taken on a lot of heavy issues. Important topics along with separation and divorce. But post partum. Plus brutality. The election. Even our parents generation going to the doctor. So many different, the sex talk like all of these Different Things that if you were to line them up, you would not think our show is a come by. But it works. Why . I think its incredible writing. I think we have incredekred cre writing and a daring and courageousness in which they lean in. The way i describe it is its like a show about the family. And its a show about the family first and foremost and then we take these things that are on the wallpaper of our lives and drop them in the middle of the floor in the kitchen and we see how this family is going to either walk around, trip over, decide to explain whats on the floor. Like how are they going to make sense of this that i think that all of us are dealing with. These are things that are sort of ive never seen anybody deal with the post partum depression thing. I thought it was really important because ive never seen it taken on. The its not an experience ive had. Because its not an experience that i know a lot about and i think its a stig mytized thing. Mental illness within the black community and in general, but within black community is not something theres a lot of language for. Theres not sort of, a lot of support and resource for. And so it was really important to pull that apart in a way and what i loved in the way they handled it was there was no eye rolling. Youre making too much of this from the husband. There was this loving couple sort of trying to understand something they didnt understand. Trying the to make sense of something they didnt understand together. And its, its the reason that its so hard that this couple is going through trouble. Manages to be hysterically funny and its brilliant. Your mom, she is an icon. I like to call her an international treasure. Its amazing. But now, for a long time, you were her little girl. I dont think that will ever change. Youre now a star in your own right. And then some younger people who may not know about your mom, b they know about you, this family. This family important to them. What advice did she give you when you first came into this business . Youve got somebody whos still a a global icon. She must have told you something. What did she tell you . At leadoff things. The most inred bable stuff was through the eck appearance of watching her. A way that my mom navigates her life and her own beingness and experience that is as a reflection em powing and gives me the courage to make my own choices and live my own life. I can have my fantasies about what that would be. What did you observe her do . Well, my mother is a a businesswoman. She is for example, always on time. Which for mher means ten minute early. Shes prepared. She has always handled like herculean tasks while being a full time mother. A full time single mother. And i never heard my mom look at me or one of my siblings and say not now, i dont have time. My mom would leave the house every morning and say things like make a new friend today and by senior year, i was like, seriously, mom . I know everybody in the school. Theres no new friends to make. Shes like i know everybody i meet. She would say things like fine, then do your best today. But for example, she would say things like when your grades would come. She would say before having an opinion herself because i know she would have her opinion, she would say things like did you do your best . Which let me tell you something as a child, you know when you didnt. Truth hurts. When you are your own worst critic and that is the worst. I also remember, my sister and i would fight all the time. We were really close in age and she would sit us down on the couch together. Never allow us to stay in the argument. And she would make us sit there together until we could apologize authentically and say i love you then go into her room and show her us saying we were sorry and that we loved her and if she didnt believe it, wed have to go right back. So those are some of the lessons. Thats not black girl madness. Thats like black girl sorcery. Or as i reich to say, the reality that makeses us magic. How real we are. That makes that magic possible. So i got so much more i want to talk with you about. Especially why you are speaking up for women. More when we get back. Bender tt in an unreasonably narrow fast food drive thru lane. But what a powerful life lesson. And dont worry i have everything handled. I already spoke to our allstate agent, and i know that we have accident forgiveness. Which is so smart on your guys part. Like fact that theyll just. Forgive you. Four weeks without the car. Okay, yup. Good night. With accident forgiveness your rates wont go up just because of an accident. Switching to allstate is worth it. I think, keep going, and make a difference. At some point, we are going to be able to beat als. Because life is amazing. So i am hoping for a cure. I want this, to uh, to be a reality. Um, yeah. Man it takes a lot of work to run this business, but i really love it. Im on the move all day long, and sometimes i dont eat the way i should. So i drink boost to get the nutrition im missing. Boost high protein now has 33 more protein, along with 26 essential vitamins and minerals. And it has a guaranteed great taste. Man boost gives me everything i need to be up for doing what i love. Boost high protein. Be up for it. Boost high protein. Hey, im curious about your Social Security alerts. Oh just sign up online and well alert you if we find your Social Security number on any one of thousands of risky sites. That sounds super helpful. How much is it . Well, if you have a discover card, its free. No way yes way we just think its important for you to be in the know. All right hey. Ewww everything ok . Being in the know is very good. Yeah, it is. Ooo dont shake dont shake ahhh know if your Social Security number is found on risky sites. Free from discover. Im back with tracee ellis ross. Everybody wants to talk with you b about your mom. Your mom in the 60s wasnt politically outspoken. Wasnt Walking Around with the fist in the air. Well, the experience of being in what she was living. And being who she was being. Boldly being who she was being. Lovingly and compassionately. In and of itself was a form of activism and the experiences she went through. What is her view, in your celebrity moment, your me too. Youve spoken up on so many. Times up more than me too. Times up. What is your moms view of you being such an outspoken activ t activist . My mother my mom was so proud after my ted talk. Both my ted talk and the glamour women of the year. My no, maam knows that i speak that way, how i feel about things. She knows my outspokenness. Shes been my mom for 45 wreers. I think i was hammering on her belly trying to say stuff of glo shopping or both. But she was incredibly proud. I think shes also just proud because i have found a sense of self and a sense of self hood and sense of happiness and joy. That is what you hope for for your children. Was there ever a moment when you were maybe a Student Activist at brown or whatever. No, my activism is r very recent. I think it really sort of why now . Well Everybody Needs to youz their voices right now. Okay . Which is part of the fertility of this moment. Yes. Is that you know, the tendency with how volatile and scary and appalling and understandably and justifiably terrifying it is, but the tendency is to lean into the compassion and the grace and the activism. Thats my in this ted talk, its an extraordinary ted talk and if people havent seen it, they should. You talk about, youre also talking about the fact that women have a right to be furious and to own the fury. Now that is a very tricky tight rope for a black woman to walk. Of course. Because its always, all women are too emotional and black women are too angry. You have the compassion and fury to talk to me about that. The paradigm within patery arky is that men are dumb and women are crazy. I say bs. I dont think men are dumb. Theres a tulculture thats supported them in being dumb and i dont think women are crazy. A much more complex nuanced pool that we are all swim iming in. The fury is justified and i think you could replace women or race sinto that same conversation, but what i do in the talk, which is really what ive been chomping on is correcting the innocuous to the horrific and that theres a spectrum there that we live within and one makes place for the other. On top of that, the invitation at the end is really the important part, the invitation for men calling men in to this conversation. To this dialogue and to this movement. This large scale Womens Movement that is going on. To say there is a way for you to be insuppo support of women ande of service to the change occurring as we all together create what we are envisioning. That we dont know what that is. That we havent lived in it. And for fury, the invitation is not to push it away because were trained to smile and be appropriate and gracious all the ty time, but to learn to look at it and learn safe places to express it and actually listen to it. Were always trying to push it down and push it down. It comes back in very weird sideways. Through your neck. Neck fury. And sometimes, you know what. Were human beings. Sometimes that occurs. But as people of color, as black and brown people, your fury if it comes out the wrong way, there are very real consequences. Theres one person who i think we are both in competition to be the president of our fan club. Its michelle obama. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like a religious hey. Shes amazing. For me, i felt like she started a dialogue that had not been opened to have a black woman to have her name be proceeded by lady and first. In an of itself. I heard angela davis say that. It just reverberated through me. In and of that, that held something. And made me, the two of them. Just you know, standing a little taller. But there is a way that she is extraordinary in our own ordinaryness. That she holds. And youve met her. She literally makes you want to bow. Weird. You just want to be like, yes, maam. Like a little courtesy and you know, like theres like some ree dw regalness to her. Not just because of her stat chur and height. I think of the speech she made after the moment during the election. That trump moment. The grabbing of the grabbing of the and there was a way that she from the position that she was in. Put the responsibility back on the right person. And that was just very powerful. Powerful, powerful. You are very powerful. And listen, we talk about your mom as an icon. Michelle obama is an icon. You are well on your way to becoming an icon. You are kind. You are kind. If i can just stay teachable and be of service, i will be b pleased. I dont think anybody has any doubt about that. Thank you so much for being h e here. I want you to blackish tuesday at 9 00 p. M. On abc. Coming up, we started the show with a hero. Up next, im going to introduce you to the 2018 teacher of the year. Our pleasure weaphen we get bac.

Now, we all remember at least one awesome teacher, maybe she stayed late and helped you with your math, or maybe went and got some money for you and got some classroom supplies that were needed. But let me tell you how amazing our next guest is, shes teacher who learned sign language just so she could help teach two of her students. These kids were born deaf, theyre from syria. They had no language at all. Now because of her, theyre both preparing to go to college. That teacher, Mandy Manning, was awarded the 2018 teacher of the year award and join us now. [ cheers and applause ] man. Youve gone above and beyond above and beyond, for kid after kid after kid. You took some kids who only had a fourth great education from overseas and got them College Ready in four years. Why do you go that far for kids theyre not your kids, theyre not from america. Why are you doing it . They are my kids, i love them. Because theres potential. In every single classroom i ever worked in. I havent always taught immigrant refugee children. Just in the last few years. Whenever i look at a kid, i see immense potential. Its my privilege to get to help them achieve that potential. You got invited to the white house because of your great work. You brought a stack of letters from these refugee children to President Trump. Im sure he was surprised. So what happened . I had a photograph with the president and my family. And i took advantage of that opportunity and i presented him with the letters. And i just asked him, i said, these are letters from my students, and a few Community Members from spokane. Its really important to them that you read them. And he did, like he took them so graciously and he thanked me and said he looked forward to it and had them put on his desk. What do you think President Trump could learn from these children, these young people . That they are thankful that they are here, very thankful. Every single letter said thank you. That they have dreams and hopes to be productive members of our society, our community here in the United States, and that coming to the United States represented hope, and that they could achieve their dreams because so many of them went through tremendous trauma in order to get here. Why do you have all these pins on . You have pins talking about trans equality, womens march pin. Why do you wear those into the white house . I have to mention that the womens march pin, i didnt make that connection. Yes, its a womens march pin but for me this is the dreamers, this represents my immigrant students. I wore all these pins because i teach all students. This was my message to my students, that i was there representing them and ready to tell their stories. Beautiful. The White House Pool was banned from your speech, which is shocking to a lot of people. I want you to have a chance to read your speech, at least a part of it, on the van jones show. Is that all right with everybody . [ applause ] its unbelievable that they were so concerned about what you had to say. But were not concerned. Were inspired by it. What did you have to say . Okay. So where should i look at, you still . You can read away, that would be hard, to read and look at me. Over the next year i will be sharing my students stories and profound insights into our country throughout the nation. Like sultan, a refugee from syria who escaped war in his country and understands the importance of the United States to be peacemakers. I am here for refugee and immigrant students. For the kids in the Gay Straight Alliance and for all the girls ive coached over the years to send them the message that they are wanted, they are loved, they are enough, and they matter. Go out today, seek an experience you have never had before. Get uncomfortable. Challenge your own perceptions to find clarity. Be fearless. Be kind. Meet someone new. Thats beautiful. Wonderful. [ applause ] i am so thankful you could be here, keep up the great work. Something else im thankful for is my hometown in tennessee where both of my parents were schoolteachers. I got to go home last weekend and speak at the same church i attended as a child. I gave the commencement address at lane college, a small, historically black school where my grandfather was once president , and i got the key to the city. This reminded me that some of the biggest hearts in the world beat in some of the smallest towns in america. Theres no place like home. Im van jones. This is the van jones show. Peace and love to one another. Nice. I got a sweet deal on this iphone at verizon for my mom. Im not done shopping.
