We begin with a white Police Officer accused of murdering a black man in South Carolina. He was charged tuesday after a video of the incident came out. We should warn you the images are disturbing. It shows the officer firing his gun eight times and shooting the man in the back as he ran away. Officer Michael Slagers case is the latest in a series of racially charged Police Shootings around the country. Vicente arenas is in South Carolina where it happened. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Michael slager remains in the jail behind me but that hasnt silenced the publics response to that dramatic cell phone video. And later this morning protesters are expected to gather to demand justice for walter scott. The dramatic cell phone video captured saturday morning shows 50yearold walter scott running away from officer Michael Slager. The 33yearold officer fires eight shots into scotts back. The father of four falls to the ground. As he lie motionless the officer is heard on the video. I thought that my brother was gunned down like an animal. It was just unbelievable to me to see that. The amateur video paint as different picture than the one that first emerged saturday. 1080 on foot. Reporter police say officer slager pulled scott over for a broken taillight. Authorities say scott initially tried to run and the two fought over the taser. Slager said he feared for his life. After the shooting slager can be seen picking something up off the ground. He then appears to drop an object near scotts body though its not clear what it is. My nephew who arrived on the scene first, he said that hes gone, and when he said hes gone im like that absolutely cant be true that hes gone from a traffic stop. I said that cant be true. Reporter an hour after city officials saw the footage, North Charleston mayor keith sumi announced slager would be charged with murder. When youre wrong, youre wrong, and if you made a bad decision, i dont care if you were behind the shield or just a citizen on the street you have to live by that decision. Reporter late tuesday slager was denied bail. If convicted, the officer who had been on the force for five years could face the death penalty. What he took away was a member of our whole community and it was taken away because he didnt think anybody would care or that he would get caught. Reporter slagers attorney released a statement saying this was a tragic event. He also said he believes the officer followed the proper policies and procedures of the North Charleston police department. That attorney, though has since withdrawn from the case. Norah . Vicente, thank you. Disturbing on so many levels on so many levels. How did it happen . It seems like the officer could run to catch him. Were going to talk with Rikki Klieman about it. I think of the family who keeps seeing this over and over again, but i think its important to show the tape so you can see the discrepancy. You mentioned Rikki Klieman, our legal analyst. Shes going to come back and talk about this and actually whether the prosecutors would have filed charges without this video, without this evidence. If someone uses a weapon like this, were they in danger . When youre running away its difficult. Very upsetting to watch. Rikki klieman as we said will be here at 7 30. Were just getting word of an atackle on american troops in afghanistan. They opened fire. Reports say three u. S. Troops were wounded. Soldiers returned fire and killed the attacker. Day two of the jury deliberation begins this morning in the Boston Marathon bombing trial. The jury is determining whether Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is guilty of the charges. They deliberated for seven hours yesterday and submitted two questions to the judge. Hes expected to answer them this morning. Dzhokhar tsarnaev will enter the sensinge sentencing phase with the same jury. He could face the death penalty. The White House Computers were breached. Federal agencies are investigating the hachlkt bill plante is at the white house with the damage from the sophisticated attack. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The white house Officials Say the hack took place last fall. They wont say who they think did it but sources tell us id did come from russia. The white house has two computer systems. One handles classified information and they say that one was not touched. The breach was in the unclassified system. Theres always vulnerability. You know the fact that we thats why we have a classified system. Theres less risk on the unclassified system. Deputy National Security adviser ben rhodes would not get into specifics about reports that the russians were behind the hacks of the white houses unclassified system last year. That system contains unclassified but nonpublic information including the president s unpublished schedule. The reported hack happened during a tense time between the white house and the kremlin when president obama and russian president putin were at odds over moscows involvement in ukraine. Cbs news senior National Security analyst juan zarate. It is a demonstration that the russians are willing to up the ante in the cyber games against the United States and theyre willing to demonstrate their capabilities against the white house itself the center of american power. Reporter last october officials confirms that suspicious cyber activity was detected on the white house Computer Network and that was around the same time the state Department System was compromised. Accordinging to reports thats how hackers slipped into the white house system. The reality is russia china, and other competitive nation states have at their command impressive and potentially detrimental cyber tools, and theyre willing to use them. Reporter the information they got was believe not to be critical but the white house system is like all Government Networks a daily target from both foreign and national. James clapper the director of National Intelligence told the Senate Committee the russian cyber attack was more severe than previously assessed. Thank you. The light this morning are back on at the nations capitol. Portions lost power yesterday including white house and the capitol. They say thats no evidence of illicit activity. Julianna goldman has more. Good morning. Reporter good morning. They traced it back to a substation like this in Southern Maryland but its ripple effects were felt across the nations capitol capitol. Minutes into maria harfs Daily Briefing the lights went out. Soon a trusty iphone saved the day. Even oprah couldnt keep the lights on for the dedication of maya angelou. Mayas forever stamp. Reporter the generators kicked in. I was with the president and he did not kick in. Reporter they said 2,400 customers in d. C. Reported outages. 13 metro stations in the d. C. Metro area switched to a backup generator. A little light in moving cars but no moving elevators or escalators. Beats the gym. Reporter at George Washington University Students flowed out of darkened buildings, and downtown the outages snarled traffic and closed museums. It all happened because these insulators fell on a transmission line and caused a shortage in the voltage. But how a system 50 miles away could throw them into darkness is a major concern. The critical infrastructures are fragile. We dont know the true vulnerabilities. Try to mitigate them as best we can but it causes me great concern. There had been concerns about hackers targeting the power grid, but, again, Officials Say there are no indications of any malicious activity here. Gayle, most of the major outages were cleared. Thank you. Oprah said it was really eerie. The lights went out and i just kept talking. When i heard the lights went out at the state department and the Briefing Room it worried me. It worried me. What does it mean. Luckily it didnt mean a lot. We thank you again. Millions of americans are bracing for the possibility of thunderstorms, hail and tornados today. A fast moving storm in st. Louis caused flash flooding. It stranded cars in streets and parking lots. Lightning flashed ads hail pounded outside the city. Meteorologist Matt Brickman is tracking more Severe Weather. Good morning. Good morning. Much of the same part of the country under the threat of Severe Weather again. Warm air aloft should hold off things until later on this afternoon or evening but when those storms get under way, well see damaging wind large hail, and a chance for isolated tornadoes. You can see things really cranking up this weekend. Then as we get in to tomorrow the storm chance moves eastward through chicago with a chance of Severe Weather on thursday afternoon. By thursday night, that rain arriving along the east coast. In fact, theres a chance for Severe Weather out in the philadelphia and baltimore into the day on friday. Charlie . Matt, thanks. This morning rand paul brings his newly informed president ial campaign to new hampshire. He meepts with voters in the state with the first president ial primary. Nancy cordes is in louisville where paul kicked off his campaign on tuesday by calling himself a different kind of republican. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. Being different has its pluses and its minuses. It sets him apart in a very gop field but it also leaves him open to attacks within his own party, and theyve already started. Weve come to take our country back. No sooner had paul announced his bid, then this ad began airing against him, paid for by a conservative group. He doesnt understand the threat. The ad was about pauls support for negotiations with iran. The senator and eye sur jon responding on iran. Pauls antiinterventionist views put him at odds with gop hawks. I say the phone records of law abiding citizens are none of their damn business. But those positions have also won paul a loyal fan base. Is senator paul the first senator youve take rchn interest in . These kbrads took a bus to hear him speak. I think his thoughts on nsa are critical. Paulas out his views in a series of 17 videos posted on u tube. I bleen you have a right to pr y. Ivac i do not support amnesty. Reporter on stage tuesday he argued for a broader republican party. I see in america where criminal justice is applied equally and any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color is repealed. Reporter pauls detractors argue hes a niche candidate. He argues its the party that needs to change, not him, and that the party needs to try to reach out to more minorities and young voters if its going to be successful in 2016 gayle. All right. Thank you, nancy. This morning the National Transportation safety board is investigating the wreckage of ae that crashed on the way home from the ncaa championship game.

If necessary, when the train is stopped, you can use the end doors to move to another car in the train. If you must evacuate, emergency exits are located in the center of each railcar. Lift the release cover a wire will break away, pull down the red handle and slide the left door panel open. Watch your step on the emergency walkway, and never touch the lower part of the railcar, which could be electrified. And for your safety, never cross over to the other track.

Thats the final welcome back to cbs this morning. Coming all this half hour a fallout after a video shows a pliev who opened fire on a suspect in South Carolina. Rikki klieman is in our toyota green room. She will weigh in on the fast action to charge the officer with murder. Plus thieves make off with up to 3 million in an elaborate london robbery. Gold diamonds and jewelry were stolen from safety deposit boxes. How investigators believe they pulled off the high end heist. Sounds like a move. Cbs boston says police in tewksbury were forced to play a ransom to cyber terrorists. Hackers demanded in 500 in bitcoin to unlock police fires they encrepted.

Shell said the deal would boost its oil and gas preserves by 25 . The record says water conservaton efforts in california plunged in january.

That includes big water users like Beverly Hills and newport beach. And the st. Louis post dispatch made history by i lengthing two additional black city members to the city council. Winning candidate ella jones watched the returns come in. It will increase to three of the six seats. Until tuesday the major and five Council Members were white in the largely black suburbs. Hundreds of voters have registered since the august shooting of an unarmed black teenager. South carolina officials have announced murder charges of as why Police Officer just one hour after seeing him through video shoot a black man in the back. He was apparently unarmed. Officer michael sleigher is being held this morning without bail. Cbs legal analyst Rikki Klieman is with us. Good morning. Good morning. Where do we start . I think where we start is the video is the telling evidence. If you did not have this telling video, would this Police Officer be behind bar this morning . Highly unlikely. Youve about got a charge with murder based on the fact that a bystander took the video and the video not only appears to be unambiguous but it records the murder somewhat looks like of a man who is fleeing away and then the possibility which makes it worse is that it looks like the officer goes back to pick up something and then drops it by the body of the person he has just shot. He has shot him eight times. The speculation is that might be the taser. The taser. The Police Officer has tasered him and when he makes the call the suspect is down and he says he took my taser. Now, i understand theres a presmgs of innocence because everyone is entitled to it. But nonetheless, when we see this, if we are not fun damon tally disturbed, then theres something wrong with us. Is there anything that could have justified based on what we see on the tape . Not for what we see on the tape. It was a traffic stop for the broken taillight. There was a bit of a scuffle, theres no doubt about that. But if you watch this man run away for heavens sake that cop could have run after this man. He could have walked after this man at the speed the officer was going. His defense attorney quit. His defense attorney quit. We dont know why. It doesnt look good but it could have been for a thousand reasons. The Supreme Court has uphead that an officer may use it but only when it pose as serious threat of death to a Police Officer. Very well red and understood. Yes, of course he has a right to use deadly force but only under those circumstances. This was a traffic stop. Right. For a taillight. Theres nothing we see in the video that leads us to believe at this point in time that there was ever a threat of danger to that officer or others. Rickkki, thank you. This morning Scotland Yard is trying to track down tleevs from a heist. Up to 3 million could have been stolen from peoples safety deposit boxes. Charlie dagata is at the scene of the crime in londons Hatton Garden. Good morning. Reporter its the scene of what might have been the biggest high. They believe they may have drilled through the walls, went down an elevator shafto the vaults without triggering alarms and got away scotfree. Hatongarden is the heart of the diamond district and thieves drilled right through it. Jewelers are counting up the costs although some of the contents werent the kind declared on any legal documents. Its private. We dont want to disclose all that. Reporter they call down the flying squad. John oconnor said the first place theyll be looking is close to home. Youre looking for somebody who turn as blind eye, somebody who opens the doors, in fact literally opens doors, somebody who gives information about the alarm system. Somebody who gives the layout of the building. Somebody on the inside. Someone with intimate knowledge of the vault. Installed in 1949 they now headed to the strong room available to every jeweler merchant in the district. Burglarproof until last weekend and oconnor said it wont be just the Police Hunting town the bandits its a very secretive industry down there, so this is a smack in the eye to the security and the safety and the confidentiality of Hatton Garden in my view because a lot of secrets are going to have to be shared. Now we get the very latest from scott lachbd yard. They have begun a slow and painstaking process of forensic examination photographing the scene and collecting evidence. They say that process should take two days. Further they believe that between 60 and 70 boxes were broken into during the burg rary. Norah . Charlie, thank you so much.

The Initiative Focuses heavily on asthma and allergies. Chief medical correspondent dr. Jon lapook spoke with president obama on the impacts of the health. Mr. President , most dont connect it with their own personal health. Why do you think that is . Because its not as obvious as some of the Environmental Issues of the past and with Climate Change and rising temperatures some of the effects are slow in registering in the minds of the public. But what we know is this. The planet is getting warmer. The science is indisputable. As springs and summers stretch out, allergies are increased. Thats going have an impact on peoples as ma for example. When i have a patient come in to my office with as ma theyre wheezing. Of course. They dont want to hear of a longterm solution. You have two daughters, two teenagers. Are you thinking long term because of them . You know malia early on when she was young had as ma,thma and we had to visit the emergency room once. We had Good Health Insurance and we had the capacity to really knock it out early so that over time she was able to not have to carry an inhaler around. She still has allergies that have to be monitored. So im a dad like everybody else. Ive seen how scary it is when your kid comes up to you, your 4yearold, and says im having trouble breathing. Even if youre the president of the United States. Even if youre the president of the United States. Its nerveracking. Why now. Hes having this multipronged attack. I think its because he realizes youre going to have any kind of Climate Change go through. Its interesting theyre connecting it to our personal health. What hes doing is taking it right to the people and hes saying he said to me at the end. You didnt see it on the tape. Change happens from the top down, not the bottom up. Most people think of polar bears, melting fwlasiers, something happening on the other stied of the planet that its not happening to them. Hes trying to say it does a affect Peoples Health . How so. Asthma has been on the increase. Chikungunya and dengue are in southern florida. They never used to be that far north. There are Climate Changes that are happening a and a lot of experts saying this affects not only our health but these illnesses. I was looking at the monitors. I wondering if we needed to look at the president s health but they were just props. Thank you, jon. This morning Alaskan Airlines is apologizeing for kick elizabeth off of the plane.

Many arent. Decisions to make now and ones where waiting can pay off. Youre watching cbs this morning. Barrys thoughts on gain flings. Holy macaroni holy macaroni thats no regular gain. This little thingamajig is some kind of super, duper, special gain. Special gain super, duper. Super, duper. If my nose had thumbs, im pretty sure theyd be up right now. It doesnt, right . Your nose has no thumbs gain flings. With 50 more scent, wed give it three thumbs up if you could. You wish your dog could fight off fleas and ticks. But since he cant. You rely on frontline plus. Because frontline plus unleashes a deadly killing force to kill fleas and ticks, plus flea eggs and larvae, preventing a new infestation. Its protection lasts a full 30 days.

One tried the newest allergy spray which could take several days to feel the full effect of relief. The other took claritind which starts to work on allergies with nasal congestion in 30 minutes. The moral . Nothing works faster than claritind. Not everybody has an idea how to handle their retirement money. According to voya the sponsor of this segment, nearly 50 have saved less than 49,000. In this mornings installment of our eye on money series cbs Business Analyst Jill Schlesinger is here. Good morning to you, jill. Good morning. The report says 60 say theyre worried about running out of money. How much do you need and how do you determine how much you need . Everyones got to start by crunching the numbers. Its got to be you need to figure out what youre spending today. A lot of people freak out with that. In those numbers what you try to do is say what am i going to spend today, what sources of income will i have in the future. Will i have Social Security will i have a pension. And if theres a gap between what you need and whats coming in youll have to get that from your portfolio or your savings. Heres a critical issue. For every Million Dollar you save its only going to generate about 30 to 35,000 a year. Who is saved a million yunion dollars . A lots of people are. Really . There are. Who. A lot of people are doing it. They start early. That is the key. It is interesting to hear that half of americans dont have a 401 k or an i. R. A. Remind even. I remember when i started working i dont need a 401 k . Im not making enough money. Somebody said to me whatever you can put away. Its almost free money if you get a Company Match. Absolutely. We encourage people to put in up to the Company Match you can put a lot of money away into a 401 k . We want you to do it slowly and surely but you can put up to an 18,000 contribution. If youre over 50 you can put in 6,000 for 24 grand total. Its not going to happen all at once. And it reduces your taxable income . It does. The reality is early is better. And it grows. It does. Its hard when youre living paycheck to paycheck. Whats the biggest mistake people make in retirement besides getting ready . Not running the numbers but claiming Social Security benefit taos early. You know, if youve got enough benefits to claim Retirement Benefits you can claim as early as age 62, if you do so you permanently reduce your benefit and if you have a nonworking spouse theirs is also. We want you to wait to your full retirement age, 65 to 67 depending when you were born and if you wage to age 70 max it out. The huge caveat. You have to live long enough. If you tell me when you going die, i will tell you when to file benefits. What about longterm Care Insurance . Thats a huge issue because a lot of impeachment mistakenly believe that medicare is going to cover longterm care and according to the government 70 of those over the age of 65 will need some longterm care. I didnt know this. Medicare does not cover. What covers it is medicaid. People who have somewhere between 300,000 and 2 million, especially couples, should look into at least pricing some minimum coverage on longterm care. It can eat into your retirement nest egg and leave you depleted. Thanks a lot. Do you have questions for jill about retirement . Shell take your questions right now. Beready. I have a question. When can i retire . Five minutes from now ill let you know. No time soon ms. Odonnelltracy. Were getting a look at the new apple watch. Look. Charlies got one on. Im borrowing it. Well show you the new features and the down side of whats now the hottest thing in wearable tech. Charlie rose model of the day. Thats next on cbs. I found my thing. So versatile.

Weve been working incredibly hard for a long time on an entirely new product, and we believe this product will redefine what people expect from its category. Seven months ago tim cook announced it. The apple watch is close to reaching stores. Its the firth product line since the ipad. Preordering will begin friday. Its leased april 24th. But scott stein brought us one this morning. Hes a Senior Editor with our partners at cnet. Good morning. Good morning. Tell us all about it. Not even knows specifically what this is. What it really is a hybrid between a super type of an ipod. You know when we used to have ipods to listen to music, its like that with the ability to act with sim bee yachtic connection to your phone. And the third part is fitness. Its a fitness tracker to compete with the best fitness trackers out there. What is the best feature . I think its a tossup between im going to get messages tall time to show this off. The fitness app is nicely done. I think its the best on the smart watch. I think the fact that this gets easy to use message responses. Its got great disdickation capabilities and you can respond to phone calls. The design is nice the watch faces are fun. The question is do you need all of that in addition to a phone. Mmhmm. How close does it have to be to your smartphone . It actually uses bluetooth so its about 30 feet but it cleverly uses wifi as well, something you dont see in other watches. So throughout your home and office you can use it as long as your phone is on but you need your phone to be on. Isnt there a huge appetite for Wearable Technology you know . There is. And people are a little unsure whether to get one. Maybe its for fitness and theyre not sure they want too get into the watch area. I think what apple is doing smartly is theyre fusing those a lot smarter than others have to keep pace with the rest of the fitness market and can introduce apps that cover the entire gamut. Apples in a good place as the worlds richest company. Is this a risk for them . I think its a big risk. Down the road no, but in the immediate, its experimenting in territory people may be uncomfortable with and its different type of interface and its a price that is higher for them than maybe anything else. They may want to buy an ipad or theyve got three price ranges on this particular watch. They do. To go to the entry level, its ipod level and its not too bad. Its where people want to go. What is the price . 350, or 3 399 for those two aluminum model and then you have the steel and then the gold which we wont get into. Where do they need improvement . I think battery life is one. It last as day. That doesnt seem so bad. To others it seems not that bad. Ive worn watches that have lasted longer and i like wearing it overnight. Thank you so much.

This remind mess of jon stewart going after donald trump because he was eating pizza with a fork. Do you believe you can eat a hamburger with a fork and knife . No. Unless you take the bun off. Thats why we get along. Jennifer weiner is on the bestsellers list. Fans in 36 countries over nearly 12 million copes. Her latest book all fall down is about a mother and a wife who get hooks oninvestigatedget hooked on drugs. Good morning. Good morning. All fall down is being call yourd best book yet. And not just by nana. Do you agree . Yeah. You know when you write 11 books, at least if youre me, you dont want to keep doing the same thing over and over and over. You want to push yourself. I wanted to talk about obviously an important topic and go to damager places but also have some laughs in there. So i hope thats what i did. The difference is the darker . Im sorry . The difference in this and why this is your best is how youve gone to the darker places. I dont know. I could have maybe written like a righteously funny book and they would have said that was my best book every. I dont know. Maybe im peekaking at 45. Issue had people tweet at me this book made me feel comfortable with my decision to ever have kids. I was like, yay . I think . Ellie, 5 years old. She was a handful. An angry husband. A messy bedroom and a pill problem. Pill problem. Thats the darker place. Thats where we went and its a huge problem. One of te reasons i wrote this book is you cant pick up people, the norm times, or yore your local paper and read about this. They take one vicodin and feel great or trade with their friends in the gym locker room. Youve got xanax ive got oxy. Lets make each other happy. You said the think about you jennifer that people say is you draw from your own personal life. Mmhmm. Do you want to tell us about an issue you have . Yeah. That was another you dont have a pill addiction. Not personally at this moment, no but you know i did like many many people my life has been touched by the disease of addiction. My dad, who i my dad and my mom split up in this like hor imic burn the ground and salt the earth divorce when i was a teenager and i didnt see my dad for many many years in 2008 and my siblings and i learned he had been addicted to crack and addicted to heroin. And you had no idea. No idea. My dad was a doctor. Here he is. My dad was a doctor. We lived in the suburbs. We went on vacation. We had a pool. It was the last thing. Discovering it was really hard. It makes me think how you do get from here to there rngs how do you get to a life that looks like Everyone Wants to dieing in a bathroom. It was awful. How do you write. How do you whats your writing process like . Well i love this question because it reminds me of james lipton inside the Actors Studio where he asked everyone what is your process in the exact same voice whether youre meryl streep or j. Lo. For me i was a newspaper reporter before my first book came out. The idea of sitting down and writing feels very natural to me because i used to have to write five stories a day and school lunches. Hot dogs tater tots applesauce, milk. You have a special place. I do. I have a special place. Stephen king talks about after he became successful he bought the big desk and he put it in the big room and it was at the center of the whole house and became addicted to cocaine, i think, and drank a lot and basically decideded he needed to rightsize that and put right writing the context of his family and thats the most important thing. That really resonated with me. So i write in my closet. In your closet. Yes. Its a big closet. Its a giant, giant closet. Like i think the house was designed for Sarah Jessica park aenld they got me instead. That deaf success where a normal lady would probably do her makeup and thats where i write. The other exciting thing back to this being your best work ever. Its the first time that its reviewed in the norm times. It finally happened. Go you. Go me right . It was a real thrill after years of sort of banging on their door and saying you need to cover more women review more women, have more women reviewers. I was thrilled that they reviewed my book but i was thrilled also the vita counts came out yesterday. This is a group that counts on a lot of big deal magazines newspapers, how many women get reviewed. This is the first ever the new york book review had more women than men and thats huge for all of us. Thats an important point. Its a good thing. Congratulations. Thank you very very much. Congratulations to you. Jennifer agnes winer. Oh my god, gayle. Really . Really . Yes, agnes, really. You wound me. Your family gave it to you. We didnt make it up. I know. Thank you. The paperback version of all fall down available where you buy your books. I tell people when they say why is a white man involved in this, ill say, well, dont you remember it was a white man who caused all of this. See why hes investing a and that amazing view is from the tallest building in the country. One World Trade Center in new york city. This morning tickets go on sale at the observatory at the tippy top. Visitors will see new york from nearly 1,200 feet from the ground.

The first museum in america dedicated entirely to slavery opened just a few months ago. Michelle miller traveled there and found new information about not only the plantation her her own history. Good morning. The whitney plantation looms as a stark remainder that our nation was built on the backs of slaves. Its a tough part of our history to remember but one man is investing a fortune to bring it all back to life. This house is full of secrets. They would sleet on pal lets on the floor. Reporter beneath whitewashed ceilings and quiet gardens, a dark history unfolds. Tourists peer into cages where slaves were beaten. Statues of black children stare back at them. In this sanctuary, memorializing the harsh reality of slavery, one figure seems out of place. 77yearold john cummings. Most people operate on ready, aim, fire, and i always operate on redady, fire and an aim. Reporter 16 years ago the new orleans native and trial lawyer jump at the chance to buy this plantation without knowing what he was getting into. What didnt you know . The slave part. I saw some of the some of the inventories from successions and i was looking, man, 40 people just traded like cattle . And so then i discovered the old histories and thats when the light went on. I got something here. Ive got a great injustice here. Cummings decided to dedicate the entire plantation to the slave perspective. He spent 8 million of his own money collecting antiques and commissioning art. The vacant whitney started coming back to life. I tell people when they say, well, why is a white man involved in this. Ill say, well dont you remember it was a white man who caused all of this. Here we honor the memory of 107,000 people. Reporter to give it a voice, cummings hired this historian. Its just amazing how these people reporter he culled diaries and inventories from an auction and estate sale. He found more than 100,000 names of slaves trade and sold through the louisiana territory. Each name is etched into these walls. Theres no order. There was a conclusion there. It was the lives of the slaves. You have african names, french names, spanish names. Next to those names are the narratives of the slaves themselves. It doesnt mean much but we make them talk as a way for us to give them a voice because these people were voiceless people. One overthe voiceless, the powerless was a slave girl named anna who had a child named victor. Victor was born a slave but the records show he is the son of her white slave owners brother. Victors great granddaughter is 82yearold cybil morialle. Wi didnt talk about it. Did they try to save you from it . I dont know if it was shame or they wanted to save us, they didnt want to inflict a sad story on us. But it was sort of affirmed that my slavery ancestry was real and it was only three generations ago. Morialle only recently learned of her direct lineage, of her connection to the whitney, and of victors legacy beyond slavery. He bought land and farmed it. So he overcame that life. And then the next generation did better, and the next generation did better, and then im my generation educated successful. Morialle was a civil rights worker, a college Vice President , and the first black, first lady of new orleans. But i already knew that. I married her son, mark. How did you feel after you brought all of this together here . I felt that i had given you my family, the ancestry in color. So my children now know. They now know. That their great, great, great, great grandmother was an african slave. Knowing can be freeing, but most often here it is painful. One of the last sights are these sculpted heads, replicas of 60 men beheaded for their role in a local slave revolt more than 200 years ago. But comings wants people to realize we arent that far removed. You look at the papever and you see that some militant group has decapitated a french journalist. We wonder what kind of barbarians codo that. We did that. Americans. We did that. Americans with white skin. We did that. Do you feel guilty . No. Only if i dont do what im doing right now. Over half of the people coming here cry, and i cry. You still cry. I do. And proud of it. It affects me. The injustice is there. You really cant do anything about it to change it but maybe you can change some of the effects of it. And thats what i think im doing. Just accepting that history can do that . Owning it. Perhaps johns most important point is that we even today are still living with the effects of slavery. Poverty, illiteracy, and crime. Hes on a campaign not only to provide quality education in his state in louisiana, but he thinks its really important that everyone who can go to college and who can afford it gets to go. Gets to go. For free. What a story. Oh, my gosh. This morning i asked myself when i looked aet that story and the first story we saw today. In South Carolina. And ask is there a connection today. Thats a question we all have to ask ourselves each and every one of us. Then it opens us to the possibility of, you know what our beliefs are, certainly what our biocease are. Its a question we all should ask. Really. Giving voice to the voices and spending 8 8 million of his own money is a commitment. Very touched by him. And you interviewing your motherinlaw. Love her. I really do. Shes amazing. She feels the same about you. Thank you for that story. Youre watching cbs this morning. Well be right back.
