>> the only violence permitted is the violence that came from police forces when enacted on protesters. that makes us feel unsafe and anxious. >> reporter: a year ago you two experienced the weekend and its totality, white supremacists were marched in with tiki torches and you were on fourth street later that afternoon. can you tell me what you experienced and the emotion you felt and the everything you witnessed and heard and what you were apart of on fourth street. >> on the 11th we watched how uva laid out the welcome matt for hundreds of nazis to march on the ground. we were surrounded by them by tiki torches and they were chanting slurs and racial slurs and that event embolden them to have more violence on saturday. >> reporter: what did you see on saturday? >> on saturday i was right next to sophie, we were complete completely -- ohthat was friday. on saturday, it was chaos, police in out skirts watching and men in full cam mo with assault rifles on their chest. it was like i was on a different planet. i have never seen anything like it. >> after this assembly was declared unlawful, if we can get this picture behind us, can we rotate. when the assembly declared unlawful, protesters vevacuated this area and a man drove the vehicle down on fourth street and caroline and sophie were there, what was the results that you found ourself in. the counter protesters were celebrating, we defended charlottesville and drove the wheat supremacists out of our town it looks like and we turned occupy up on fourth street and i was hit by the car that the nazi drove and next thing i remember is coming to the sidewalk and had no idea what had just happened. >> reporter: tell me of the injuries you suffered and how you are doing now? >> i broke both legs and i had two surgeries on my left leg and multiple contusions on my body and i lost half of my blood internally and obviously this past year has opinion extremely challenging to not only recover from physical injuries and mental trauma that we experienced over the weekend and continuing to demand justice from the institution that failed us that weekend, uva. >> reporter: what are those demands? >> so the students are demanding that uva issue lifetime no trespass orders on all identified nazis on august 11th that university pay all medical bills, mrs. survivors who still have medical bills they have not. they're not welcome back on the grounds. they have not done that. >> reporter: i want to thank you both for your time this morning and tonight there is an event, the rotunda on the university of virginia campus, you are returning a year ago to defend the grounds and support those in the community who need it. that'll beginning at 7:00 tonight. they tell me victor, and christie about a thousand people have rsvp. . >> kaylee hartung, thank you so much. >> a black officer had an idea back in the '70s. we wanted to win the trust of the kkk leaders. how did he do it and why? a new movie by spike lee. paul manafort's long time aid takes the stand. what he said about the man on trial. energy lives here. nearly an hour before he crashed. >> oh man, these guys are roughing me up. i think i may mess it up there. i i would not want to do that. oh, they got heads o ut here. >> no, they don't have any of that stuff. we are trying to find a place for you to land safely. >> let's bring in our aviation analyst and former manager director of ntsb. >> to you, the man sounded excited in discussing of the antiaircraft. when you hear that ground service agent that took off in his plane, is this a single breach do you think or did this man have to jump through a series of loopholes to pull this off? >> he cleared his background check. this is a one off event, the person is going through some sort of mental health crisis that he got access to the plane is unfortunate but these aircrafts are serviced over night and they are maintained during the evening hours so they can fly during the day. this is just a tragic one off event. >> we know the ntsb and the faa and fbi have been notified and will be working on this, what is the first thing they'll look at. >> this is an fbi led investigation. the ntsb defers to fbi and any criminal type of investigation. i think the first thing you would do as anyone would do is review your procedures and go through ground procedures to see if security is in place and if there were any gaps in it. you would also frankly review your employee assistant program to make sure that employees who are having difficulties have access to this. you know alaska is one of the airlines that consistently ranks high in custom satisfaction and high in employees satisfaction and they're known as a really cutting edge carrier. this really is a one off event but i think everyone is going to take a hard look at it. >> i also want to share, our producer told us during the break that you and i wonder, we should disclose this have done some consulting work for alaska airlines just so everyone's card is on the table here. >> i have. >> i admire the airline greatly. everyone will take a look at procedures and at whether every step was followed and whether there were any gaps. those will be closed. i can't think of an event like this happening before in my lifetime. >> you know i wonder and i got mary schiavo perspective on this, i want yours as well. there has been some - to what degree do you think we'll see intensify or increase mental health screenings or check for employees o f these airlines. we know that'll come at great expense. >> there is expense on doing that. and certainly the german wing tragedy some years ago have revamped their mental health screening and mental health environment for pilots. it is a challenge, i think if this incident is reviewed, there will be new procedures in place. >> you mention alaska airlines, we understand that this person was employed by horizon air, just to be clear. thank you so much peter goelz and appreciate your perspective as always. >> thank you. the trial of paul manafort will enter its third week on monday. prosecutors are expected to wrap up the case soon. on friday, they focused on the chairman's lavish spending on hundreds of thousands of spending. allegedly paid for an unregistered foreign account. the jury was expected to hear that part of the case right before he started on friday but instead there was this five hours delay that pushed everything back. cnn correspondent athena jones tells us what to look forward as this case moves forward. ro >> reporter: this after a week of damaging revelations. many of them coming from rick gates. the government's star weakness from the trial. manafort ple gates is cooperating with the government as he's trying to convict his former boss on 18 counts. this is the first of two trials his former campaign chairman faces in virginia and washington, d.c. the virginia case presenting the first big test for special counsel robert mueller. he is investigating the russian meddling of the 2016. before leaving, questions of his lobbying work and the payments he received totaled more than $60 million. the government alleges manafort hid millions and lied about his income and spending big on items like expensive suits and yankees tickets and ostrich jacket. >> he testified he and manafort had 15 foreign accounts that they did not report to the government even though they knew it was illegal. manafort instructed him not to submit the required forms. gates testified that manafort recommended a banker who loan him money for position of the trump administration and he admitted he cheated on his wife. revelations manafort defense team hopes to under mimine gate ability. the president has played down his relationship with manafort in recent months. >> manafort works for me for a short time. >> he's watching the trial closer and taking to twitter to express sympathy to manafort. he's calling on jeff sessions to end the mueller probe immediately or calling the white house describing it as not an order but an opinion. athena jones, new york. >> where was all of this coming from and what did he learned and what is he saying it now?

>> what surprised me most is how hatred backfired on haters immediately. the thing that struck me that none of them are happy and the emotional entanglement in white identity causes great suffering for these people in of itself and it comes out as rage and anger and hatred. none of these guys were fulfilled in legislativing thee living their best lives. >> did anybody want to? what kind of conversations were they having? >> based on blame. they are centered around the fact that america is sadly a historical society. what i find is there is a gigantic vacuum, when it comes to the history of color, they don't know about it and therefore you lose context in the present moment. history context relies on now. when loose that, you have the vulnerability especially of the age of internet and people falling for new ideas and getting rebranded as something brand new and they don't realize that they are baited on the wrong side of history yet again. >> one year ago we talked about this and we are a year later, do you get a sense that anything have changed? >> what i do get a sense of, this is interesting of the charlottesville rally. the far right imploded on itself. i remember the atmosphere in the country being something they may have a valid political voice. when charlottesville happen, oh, these are the same old crazy people that white supremacy always produce. i think it pitsuts a dent in th momentum and credibility. when heather heyer was killed, it shows this violence and ideology was still the same thing. it shows up again and we have the right to be on edge of these rallies. >> there is a student activist at charlottesville high school who said this. i believe it was in "the washington post." there there has not been the work to go back and reckon with white supremacy. before we can move on and heal as a community, we have to reckon with that. >> what conversations need to be had? >> i think the conversation especially needs to be had and why america is the difference between guilt and accountability. there is something in your huge past that is something to be ashamed of like the genocide of native americans and the enslavement of black folks and what happened with the chinese and the white folks. what needs to happen is okay, i may not have been the one perpetuated these crimes individually but i inherit the wealth of that. how do we reckon with the past so we don't make these mistakes. let's make brand new mistakes in the future but the sic cyclical what's alarming to me. >> that's what's interesting here another article, another moment of this takes on institutional racism, listen, it exists. the city and the university have not come to term with their history of being built, enriched and sustained by enslaved people and remaining for much of the 20th century. can you move forward without the acknowledgment? >> you can't move forward without the acknowledgment. we have to keep in mind this has been an openly society. like enslavement and of black folks was legal to 1619 to 1971. okay, so basically if you are generation x, you were born at a time when this was legal. it is not enough time to reverse the damage that was done when this society was openly -- >> there are people that said i didn't live in that time and i don't acknowledge that now so why can we get over it? to that you will say what? >> you can break somebody's legs and you can say i am sorry for it but the time it takes to heal that leg is the time that takes to heal. if you don't acknowledge that leg is broken and don't give the proper nutrient, it will never heal. this society has a habit of denial and defensiveness. you don't get to escape from that just because you don't want to see the damage that's been done to the people of color. >> theo. i thank you so much. sorry we run out of time. i want to say i appreciate you being here and sharing. >> that's all right. >> thank you for being here. >> thank you, take good care. we are in charlottesville this morning as the city marks a year since the violent white nationalists rally. dozens of officers are there on the streets. they come as washington prepares for another rally by the same group tomorrow. we'll get the president's perspective and those supporters and we'll be joined by coach chairman of new york state, joseph parelli, we'll be right back. f everything a to z. having insurance is something everyone needs, but having usaa- now that's a privilege. the new united explorer card hooks me up. getting more for getting away. traveling lighter. getting settled. rewarded! learn more at theexplorercard.com oh! oh! ♪ ozempic®! ♪ (vo) people with type 2 diabetes are excited about the potential of once-weekly ozempic®. in a study with ozempic®, a majority of adults lowered their blood sugar and reached an a1c of less than seven and maintained it. oh! under seven?
