Speech, with a panel of activists who were not even born 50 years ago coming up in just a moment. And by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. Thank you. So pleased to be joined tonight by professor and author, mark lamont, and director of change, rashad robinson, closing out a powerful week, speaking of powerful when you first came to know this speech what did you make of it . You went to moorehouse, where king went to school, what did you make of it and how did you compare it in contrast with vietn vietnam, and what im sure you knew about, the i have a dream speech. It changed the way i understood king, because now i understood him from a radical condition, coming from a nationalist background, i found we have to fight back, the other thing i found was the moral, king linked his peace to jesus, and said it cant be restricted to the United States. It has to be a global practice, i also was sold on a Global Vision of activism. Actually, for those who dont know where

Good morning. Im carol costello. Thank you so much for joining me. The donald trump political machine may have a reverse gear after all. Igniting a fire storm angering both sides of the abortion debate. In an interview on msnbc trump said if abortion were outlawed any woman who violates the bab should be punished. She lat this was during a discussion with Chris Matthews. And it was off the cuff. Not scripted and when he said should there be punishment he said yes. Chris matthews said for women he says yes. Again not distinguishing the fact it is the actual procedure that would be illegal. That is exactly why he issued the statement clarifying. Donald trump is pro life with exceptions. He does not support penalizing women for having abortions en then why did he say that. My point because it was a miss speak. How many times do i have to say that. Cnns Phil Mattingly life in milwaukee, wisconsin. Five days for that states primary. With more on this. Good morning phil. Reporter good mornin
