Night, the cofounder and why hen his book thinks we are at the beginning of a third wave of Internet Development and why he is looking outside of Silicon Valley for the newest digital developments. Now we are starting to see the third way pick up steam. That is the internet that will be integrated in more seamless and pervasive ways, sometimes invisible ways, throughout our lives in changing things like health care, education, transportation, energy, food. The gas tax of our live in big sectors of the economy. I wrote the book because it requires a different mindset and going to bewe are successful in this third wave. Watch monday night at 8 00 eastern on cspan2. Washington journal continues. Host we would like to welcome the chair of the Political Science department at Howard University, Clarence Lusane. He is also the author of the book, the black history of the white house. We invite you want to talk about detroit 50 years ago. You were there is a young boy. What happened . My family had been fishing in canada. We came back and the city was exploding. Fires and fire engines all over the place. On the second night of the uprising, what we call rebellion, my mother, sister, and i walked to one of the major intersections about two blocks from our house. We had been there about 15 minutes when suddenly there were shots. There was gunfire. Everyone on the corner was shot except for me. My mother and sister were shot. They were injured. Fortunately, they were not lifethreatening injuries but they had to go to the hospital. Iran got my father. He came back with the car. We took people to the hospital. I was there 13 years old. That was very traumatic. Not just for me, for the entire city to live through that experience. It has not in something i have not thought about it has not been something i have not thought about. It has certainly had an effect on my life. Was filmed from 1967 as the uprising continued for nearly a week. 43 people were killed. Thousands were injured. As many as 2000 buildings were damaged or destroyed. What sparked the uprising . Why did it happen . Guest there was an immediate reason it happened which had to do with a response by the black community to a police action. There had been a long history of the police riding into the black community and harassing people. Ofa child, i grew up in fear the big four, police cars we drive around with four officers and harass people. It was racial profiling plain and simple. There is a bigger context important to look at. That was the conditions under which African Americans not only in detroit but in cities around the country were facing as we 1960s. To the late had political disenfranchisement where there were few elected black officials at any level. Marginalization where people had little opportunity. You had social isolation from schools to hospitals that were segregated weather official whether it was official or de facto. And then you had police harassment. A friend of mine wrote a book. What she found when she compared riots in the u. S. With those around the world is that in almost every circumstance where ,ou had these urban uprisings paris, london, los angeles, or detroit, almost universally they were started as a response to Police Actions that had built up over time where people said we cannot take this anymore. Martin luther king said these riots, rebellions were the language of the unheard. What he was referring to is all the channels by which people could have grievances addressed simply did dont exist, some people responded in the way they had so people responded in the way they had in front of them. Host this week, our conversation with joseph telefonica califano. He was at the white house when the uprisings began in detroit. In our conversation last thursday, he remembers what happened. [video clip] it was a stunning experience. It was probably the largest riot we were experiencing since watts. Watts came in 1965. We were in a race against high expectations. Once. Used to say that was inevitable for the oppressed becomes intolerable when there was light at the end of the tunnel. We were giving them a lot of light. The problems of lousy education, poverty, broken families, no enormous andwere were going to take a long time to deal with. We really were in this terrible race. This was deeply troubling. In second thing was, addition to all the People Killed and injured in detroit, we had an enormous problem of trying to maintain the funding for the Great Society programs. Thaton was always on edge the worst enemies to the programs we were trying to pass might be the people we were trying to help because of their inevitable inpatients mpatience. Host he was a Senior Advisor to lyndon johnson. The full podcast is available on our website. Your reaction . Guest i remember mr. Califano well in the johnson administration. He is right in that the anditions were creating situation for people to rebel. People should have been impatient. Particular, it was the fifth largest city in the country, it was a rising economy auto economy. The city was driving but for particular people in the city. The marginalization of people were feeling were the conditions under which the rebellion occurred. When i have often told my students is there would the mesh it would have been surprising if they had not been uprising in detroit. It was creeping around the country. Between 1964 and 1968, there were hundreds of rebellions around the country because the ability of people to exercise basic civil rights, human rights, political lights had been threatened writes had been threatened. People were using the language available to them at the time. It required a transformation in the city that was not forthcoming and had to be forced rather than negotiated. Host we are defining our phone lines regionally. We have aligned set aside for those of the you of you who remember we have a line set aside for those of you who remember what happened 50 years ago. Our first caller is from detroit. Good morning. Caller good morning. Good morning, mr. Lusane. I wanted to bring up a couple of aspects of this if you have time. There are a lot of white people, im African American by the way, who are in denial about theconditions that sparked rebellion in the first place. First with regard to police brutality, i dont know if the viewers in my hometown especially are familiar with this unit of the Detroit Police , tacticalhe big four slots that regularly patrolled black neighborhoods and brutalized and even murdered African American men. I think even the white conservatives back then would defend those actions much like they are defending White Police Officers today. Host gary, thank you for the call. Guest he makes a critical point. Police black Community Relations was one of the sore spots during that time. It was not resolved after the rebellion. The rebellion, there was urgency to put money into the city, to take young kids and put them in social programs. I learned right in the community centers. Rather than address these issues, it became worse. In the early 1970s, there was a police unit called stress. I dont quite recall be acronym the acronym, but it was like a swat team that terrorized the community. It had the largest percentage of murders of citizens of anywhere in the country. The mayor wasil elected in 1973 that you begin to get a transformation of the Police Department and began to nota more just completely just but it required a transformation of the city at the top because the police, mayor, and city council had not addressed that particular issue that was raging in the black community. Host sunday morning, july 23, 1967, the demonstrations began a detroit and continued for five days. As a result, there were 43 deaths. More than 7200 arrests took place during the riots. 2500 stores were looted or burned. 1967, 38 of residents were African American. The percentage of Detroit Police officers that were black, 5 . Lets go to nathan. Riots are still happening. They are still going on. You kind of have to be her own igurnalist nowadays to d deep and look at the actual videos and stories. We just had a right in germantown, pennsylvania, which used to be german. There are no germans left. My ancestors came there in the 1690s. There were about 500 black youth that rose up and got told to go home from the swimming pool. They attacked the police. I saw the videos. The papers tried to cover it up and say it was an event. I see things like the videos of the white teacher trying to blackup lacking fights gang fights and the attacks on what teachers white teachers. Video of theio and black kids who watched the white kid drowning and did not attempt to save him. We had ferguson, west baltimore. Was mostlye, it arabs and asians targeted by blacks. My question is difficult but one that i find amazing and i want to get his opinion. Im trying to keep an open mind. I deal with a lot of people traveling who are indianamerican. Castecome here from the system, their own version of slavery. In less than a generation, they own most of the stores in town. They are very gentle people. A little humorless, but they are very gentle people. I cannot imagine Indian Americans are writing. Rioting. They work too hard. Host we will get our guest a chance to respond to your many points. Guest there are Different Things in the comments. You cannot make those kinds of generalizations. I think what is important to note about what happened not only in 1967 but what is happening now is we still see in many situations people facing these conditions of marginalization. When you talk about ferguson, one of the things that stood out is there was virtually no representation in ferguson on the city council, no representation of African Americans on the police force. It has been documented by those who took the time to look at it blackhe city was facing and poor residents cost of harassment from the police. It was not just the killing of the young man but it was the context of that killing in the history that gave rise to people standing up. The same thing happened in baltimore. I would use the term rebellion rather than riot. Refers to winning a Basketball Championship and overturning cars. Rebellion reflects there is a wherey, a social context for a long time there is a build up of tensions because of unresolved social justice concerns and that finally is sparked by an incident usually and leads to people being out in the street. Give it some context and not place the blame on people who really are the victims in these circumstances. Host lets go to michelle who remembers the riots in detroit. She is joining us from michigan. Good morning. Caller good morning. I am curious as to how old your guest is. Guest i am 64. I was 13 at the time of the rebellion. Caller i am 70 years old. We lived maybe 20 miles from the city of detroit. Was ay the riots started blind pig was raided. At that time, that started the riot. Own happened was their stores and communities were being torn down and set on fire, and looting and robbing. It was unbelievable what was going on. The people that were killed were each other. You are depicting it a little too deep i think. Granted, the stress units were there try to keep some sort of control trying to keep some sort of control. It was resented, of course. I see it a lot differently than you do. Guest that is fine. Let me give you more history. She referred to blind pigs. That was a term for after our places runfterhours by people who would sell drinks and make money on the side. They were not places where people were committing violence or negative activities going on. What happened on the saturday leading up to the riots was that the police raided this place and harassed people and brutalized people. I know about blind pigs well. My father ran one for quite a while. The context of what was going on was this was a harassment of people. The response was the only response available. There was no one in the Police Department, no one in the City Government that said you should curtail these kinds of harassing activities and try to address these concerns. The larger context of it is these were communities under which people were not given any kind of ownership at all. Redlining was the practice quite legal at the time. It certainly was carried out. The banks would draw a circle around communities and not make loans. Even if you were a middleclass African American in detroit or st. Louis or los angeles, you could not get a loan to purchase , not in thriving areas in detroit. Those were the conditions under which people conditions people were facing in the mid1960s. None of that changed until people were able to get political power and positions on City Councils and School Boards and begin to affect the communities in which they lived rather than have that be controlled by people outside those communities. Host if you are interested in this topic, at noon eastern on atpan three, we look back the detroit riots on the 50th anniversary. Can follow all of our programming online at cspan. Org. Brenda lawrence is a former mayor in michigan and joins us the sky. Thank you for being with us. Congresswoman lawrence, can you hear us . She cannot hear us. We will come back to her. Lets go to michael joining us from minnesota. Good morning. I am 65 years of age. My concern was i thought the youngion started when African American men returned home from vietnam and was having a good time, and the Police Presence came in. Knowing they would be there, and the present to try to arrest one of the young men presumed to try to arrest one of the young men because he was walking by and then goesar back into the establishment. The policehows policies have not changed 50 years ago until today regardless of what city you live in. It seems like you are guilty until proven innocent. Host michael, thank you. Guest let me give some political context to the history of African Americans in the city. There is a very good book that just came out called black detroit which traces a lot of the evolution and coming to the city of African Americans from other places as well. The city was an epicenter of black politics. You had traditional black politics, naacp, Martin Luther king had come to the city. But you also had radical black politics which started after the riots with the individuals who led it had been there. , thead the nation of islam league of revolutionary black of his which came out termination in auto plants. Detroit was you had very strong progressive, leftist environment so there had been demands for changes, not just starting in 1967, but for years. Host this is a recent photograph of one of the homes from 50 years ago, the remnants of the riots that took place. Pointing out detroit today is 80 African American and 40 of its population lives below the federal poverty line while many of the predominantly white neighbors are far richer. How does that feed into the racial and Economic Issues detroit is dealing with today . Guest i talked about some of the political changes that happened after the rebellion in 1967 with the election of young, were African Americans on the city council and school board. The city also had the confluence of a number of other factors that led to the kind of deterioration that has often been the focus on detroit. Of 1973the oil crisis which had a major impact on the Auto Industry. At the same time, the Auto Industry was being challenged and begin to move manufacturing out of the city. When i graduated high school in 1971, before i started university i worked at what was maybe at that time the largest auto plant in the world. Tens of thousands of people worked there. You could go in any day and would start working the next day. People who have gotten out of prison, gotten back from vietnam, had a third grade education could get a wellpaying manufacturing job. It was hard work but it was income that gave people middleclass opportunities. That ended rapidly in the 1970s and 1980s. The city had not planned and anticipated what would happen if the Auto Industry collapsed. Essentially, detroit was a one company town. There were circumstances beyond people in the community that began to affect it. As the picture indicates, much of the city was never rebuilt after the 1957 rebellion. There are parts of the city that went up in flames and buildings had been burned and neighborhoods had been harmed that received little attention. And then the city began to lose population. Host let me pick up on that point and bring in representative Brenda Lawrence from the detroit area. Thank you for being with us 50 years later to pick up on what the professor was saying. What are the aftereffects of the rights in your home city . Guest thank you for having me. This is Interesting Times in detroit. Manynot tell you how people have mixed emotion about even discussing this because is on the rebound, what we call the comeback city. Some people say we do not want to discuss the past and the negative things that happened, lets talk about what is positive about the city. But you must know where you started. You must know why we are here. Why do we have to have a come back . I bring the perspective of being , child when the riots started knowing the concerns and fears because the curfew did not mean anything to me because i would have had to have been at home being a child, but to watch it through my neighbors and grandmother who raised me. It was an interesting time, a time of extreme emotion. Child, i dids a not understand the jim crow issue. I did not live through the separation of bathrooms and drinking fountains. That was not my reality. I lived on the northeast side. It was integrated. There were white families and black families. A high school i went to was sick and percent white and 40 60 white and 40 black. I lived in a very diverse environment. What happened after the riots is an emptying out of the city of white people. No one asked them to leave. In my neighborhood, the riots never touched my community but my neighbors left. I was the mayor of a major suburban city, southfield, detroit. Everyone i talked to would tell me i used to live in detroit. It was as if, i lived there, but i am no longer there. It butoke fondly of could not see why anyone would want to live there now. It was interesting. Child at thee a time. There was a tugofwar between president johnson and the federal government and the and the federal government and the response by state and local officials, most notably by then republican governor george romney. Any talk about what states did and did not do and what the government ultimately had to do to quell the violence in your city . Some will say the fact it ended was the result of the National Guard coming into the city. I can tell you as a child, it uncomfortable. I remember being nervous watching tv, and people telling me, it was as if we were in a city at war and who were the bad guys . There was a concern that who were these National Guards coming to shoot or to be at war with. There was a lot of concern and dor as a child and what do i , if they come to my neighborhood, what am i supposed to do . Am i supposed to identify myself as not being it that person . Were they here just to shoot black people . Some will say as a result of the governor and the president , the writing stopped. I can debate this now looking. Ack at it host representative Brenda Lawrence, thank you for being with us and sharing your firsthand perspective and what he remember 50 years later. We appreciate it. Lets get to your phone calls. Up is a frequent and regular listener and viewer. We welcome you back from upstate new york. Good morning. Morning. And good i very much appreciate this allent and again, i think of the people who put all of us on the air behind the scenes every day. Professor, i had a distinct and honor when i was getting my master of divinity, to take courses at Howard University school of theology up and i donorth beach, not know if he is still with you on faculty, but professor jones, he was one of my teachers. Put my comments in of georges quote, those who fail to remember history are also, io repeat it, and am two years younger than you, but this is all very clear to me because my mother is from occupied ireland. The british did to the irish for 400 years what the america has now done to black, half original African Americans for 400 years. The reason we outsource is we have only had from the 13 original economic entities and economy kept under slavery. We have everything outsourced. Profits before people. Will get a response. Thank you for the call. Guest thank you. I appreciate you being there and being one of our alumnis in. Thank you for raising good points. One, that there is a universality to the way in which people respond to social injustice. London saw a number of urban rebellions. A sense of injustice related to police activity. It is critical as we keep that in focus and look at the situation and when we talk about what is happening in cities around the country, the black lives matter pointed out that of raising these issues, you still have circumstances under which Police Departments acted in right racially discriminatory ways for black communities and in death latino communities. This was coming out of the Justice Department and attorney general holding, who thought to create memorandums of understanding with a number of Police Departments, that they would begin to a these concerns that were documented. In terms of the number police killings, arrests, and stops and searches. It all seems to be falling away under the new attorney general. The issues have not gone away and they operate within the context of these communities that are economically marginalized and are not in a fitting from gentrification that is going on. Addition to those watching on cspan television, the program is carried on cspan radio. We welcome our Radio Audience as well. Our guest is Clarence Lusane at Howard University and were looking at 50 years ago to be a today. The rise that broke out and again, live coverage beginning at noon eastern time looking at cspan3s American History tv and another chance to get your call in a look back at this. Kathy is next. Good morning. Caller good morning. It is significant in American History but i implore all americans to go online and look up the history of riots in and find that most of the riots were started and perpetuated by white people. Riot, wewe talk about talk about black people but i want to bring to incidents to bear. Tulsa, oklahoma, and rosewood down in florida. Just to keep this thing in perspective that not only black people right. Why people do too. Host thank you. Guest she is raising important historical context. Detroit had a race riot in the one person who felt africanamericans were striving to much righted. Happened, a part of the city, an island where people would go and family events. Whites againsty the black community. Thath longer history, being the spark for these kinds of situations than what happened in the 1960s. Why hundredseason of cities went up when dr. Martin luther king went was assassinated on the fourth. That up to the president except arthurmiami, went mcduffy was killed and there was a rebellion against that, and then after the rodney king trial, after he will the child him being beaten and the officers were acquitted, those standout because more or less there haveresent, been black and latino elected who conserve as a voice for those communities. Not resolve these issues, certainly, but when people feel there is a past where people can adjust the issues, and nonviolent path to adjust their issues, people take that path. Forre we condemn people writing and creating violence in the community, lets look at what opportunities exist for people to a dress these concerns in ways that seem normal to other communities but are not there for the communities we are talking about. We look at baltimore, ferguson, a number of cities, we have to raise the issue. Opportunities and does everyone in those cities equally have an opportunity to address concerns around economic, social, and political opportunities . There are not, how do you begin to make sure there is inclusiveness. 2017,k about detroit in you have got islands of prosperity and rebirth around the riverfront surrounded by an of poverty, marginalization, and people who have been left out. Host our conversation with Clarence Lusane, who arent his doctorate from Howard University. He is the author of a number of books including pipe dream blues and the black history of the white house. Joining us from georgia, good morning. Good morning. Thank you for having me the opportunity to even speak about this. I was not a part of detroit and i am 50 years old and my dad lives in detroit. Met is more interesting to is if i were to take these videos and add color to them, i would never know that anything because we continue to talk about what is continuing to happen. Is a saying that squeaky wheel gets the oil. Have a continuous oppression of a group of any people you prevent the opportunities to become all they were designed to become a they and do thisquiet and that, and when they implode, the government allows for the police to come shoot them down, youthere is anger and if are not involved in that situation directly, it is hard for us to perceive it. We put it in context with black or white or hispanic or any other nationality. Faced,larly black people people sitting on the outside of that perceive it differently. If we continue to keep institutional Police Officers whose job is to go in, because this is how they are trained and it isnt wind in the institution in which they are learning to deal with the black or hispanic that asy, we did pick crime and show it all over the television as black people and hispanic people and poor people are criminals and we are the heroes coming in to save you untilhe criminal element, of thege the mindset Police Department and empower ourselves in a Political Institution and begin to an twined the fabric in this country, a melting pot, and get the respect of all of us who live here, we will continue to have not only a 50th anniversary of detroit, but what we see is continually going on in our nation. We are human beings. Host thank you for sharing your firsthand account and your dance experience. Do you have family still into troy today . To her point, is she right and are we still seeing that . We are. She raises a critical point about people in these communities. Also media exclusion. Narrative in detroit other places came through the vehicle of all white media. There was almost no perspective from the community about how the community itself looked and that also needed to change. Ofo troy, you had a number responses. Black i forget what it was for. Black awareness intelligence. That attempted to do and change the arguments and perspectives about how africanamericans actually live in the u. S. Society and detroit. Detroit had one of the last television stations. It is critical to not only change wrought or context but also the vehicle by which those stories are told here we saw that in other places like here in washington, d c. We just lost an important blackness reporter and an anchor when, a critical voice there was a rebellion in washington, d. C. , following the assassination of Martin Luther king. It is important you would have on television, as part of journalists who are reporting had aws, that you diversity of voices and perspectives and that did not happen until the mid1960s and going forward. Host caller, you remember what happened where were you . Caller 12 miles outside of , always going at that point. Lets see. 11 years old. A lot of things to talk about. Definitely in a white severed. It was because my father liked the area and it was near lakes. My father loved the city. Could not leave the yard for about a week. People, they were not talking against blacks. I believe inon boston at the time. Was stationed lan for the navy. I hope you bring his perspective because he has thoughts on that. A great slugger for the detroit tigers, actually walk the streets. It helped come people down to a degree. It was an ugly time. I remember the black panthers had bad incidents. We were advised to have big socalled social projects were a withf people were living each other, and it was a. Egative atmosphere there are so many things. Rodney king, you know, as a i could not understand why we could not get along. So yes, im glad youre doing it and i hope it never happens again. Go on togers again sports, if the tigers go on to the world series, you might have had riots in 1968. Anyway, i have got to go. The call. K you for if youre interested, you can go to the Detroit Free Press website. It is an hourbyhour breakdown of exactly what happened 50 over the span of five days. He response. Responds. Guest light flights from the city had been going on leading up to that. With a rebellion and accelerated after that. Thing in the 1980s is with an exodus of whites, particularly middleclass whites cutst, along with severe cities around the country, it it you created an economic crisis and it is driven by the changes. Detroit was the fifth largest city in 1967 and now has fewer than a million residents. It lost perhaps half of its population. They are moving to come back to the city because of some of the opportunities in very specific kinds of ways. It is a bit of a push up in numbers. But they lost hundreds of thousands of people. Meansn imagine what it not just for the tax base but the infrastructure issues. The city was built with a water system for a million and a half people. You do not have that anymore. The electric grid. The electric company, they were intimately engaged in how the city was electrified. It meant a lot that the city more than any in the country rapid time. In a these factors are outside of the control in the community. These are driven by external kinds of conditions. Host florida, good morning. Caller thank you for taking the time to speak to the audience of cspan about this matter. I have two comments. Havefree to respond and i a question. White fluency has negatively of d a lot we see a lot of groups using our cause as their own agenda. The lgbt flag and other flags like undocumented pfizer would have you and these people are throwing rocks at Police Officers, not a majority of black folks who are peacefully protesting. I heard you said something about andcurrent administration the issue of police brutality. , ethan feel free to elaborate on that and all of the protesting going on and a lot of Police Related deaths. Guest thank you for both points. Is a large history of strategies around civil disobedience and protests. ,e see from other communities they responded in different ways to aggressive kinds of programs as well. I would not say they are owned by one particular community but the history where the africanamerican and Civil Rights Community have engaged in the tacticssts and effective in bringing about take just change. In terms of obama and his youre righttment, that in a fundamental kind of way, it does not change the game. In some ways, it cannot because of the separation between the states and the federal government. There is pressure and there is some effort by attorney general , but fundamentally, it is a local issue that really degree a stateme issue because of state funding to local police authorities, but in many ways, it is a local issue. There should be a National Voice and congress can play role in all of this. There has been no reluctance to do it. It has not been because there has not been an effort to make it happen. Everyone have harped on the issue and pushed it into the spotlight. Election, itpasses unfortunately did not get the kind of attention that it and with the new administration, were in a very circumstance because attorney generals Jeff Sessions has reversed would argue was even the little progress being made under the obama administration. Are the scars still there today . Guest certainly. The individuals who lived through that experience and have addressed that, it was extremely traumatizing. The 101st airborne on the streets of detroit. A caller mentioned one of those soldiers. I walked past those soldiers for three or more days. Playground where i used to hang out. We do not get that when you are 13 years old. Aople who are older who had more mature kind of engagement with what was going on, people would not forget. The legacyr context, of what happened in cities around the country that were demanding justice only to see a partial kind of way. We have some of the greatest economic inequality in the countrys history. We have some of the most serious crises in terms of education and a lot of cities around the country. For many people, one of the only people who called in and said it does not look like that different, is correct. There are opportunities we have now and we learn from our experience. We can move forward. The chairman and founder of cspan was in the United States navy at the time and gave the information in response to what was happening into trite. The ground. I want to make sure were clear on that and transparent and accurate. What dever member 50 years ago . Caller what do you remember 50 years ago . Eight years old hoping to visit my grandparents and my mother said we cannot go and i said why and she said riots and we had the tv on most of the day. It was not my grandparents into but still, people were not sure what is going on. Her 80s doubtful me a story five years ago that there was an africanamerican coworker of hers and i think he 94, up to southfield you would come into work every day during the rise and people thought, why are you doing that and he said though they were shooting at people on the highway, he felt it was safer to go into work than to stay in his neighborhood. I thought that was interesting. I live in vermont and i have been here 22 years. It is a good city. Manufacturing has gone down. There has been an opiate crisis and efforts to address that. Over the years, detroit has got a bad rap. People do not realize what happened to detroit in a way has happened around the country. All of these manufacturing jobs have been lost. All of these opiate crisis is crises. There is a lot to learn about what happened to detroit. One last thing host we have to let you go. We are short on time. Thank you for joining phoning your experience with us. Guest thank you. I love my city and i love detroit. What i would say is the major takeaway is the people in the city do not give up. Before in not give up really harsh conditions and through the 1970s in 1980s, 1990s p a crack cocaine crisis, the economic crisis. People have not given up on the city. , peopleportant to note passed on the legacies of activism and in detroit today, from younger people engaged in all kinds of Community Get communitybased activity too many older people my age, 10 years older than me, still active. I have a lot of hope for the city. I think people are continuing to fight. Host that is the lesson. Guest people are resilient and do not give up.
