our memory and history for two key reasons. one is about that struggle for the vote, but that has been a long struggle here in selma. it's really about that misuse of police power and kind of the whole country looking at it and saying this is obscene. this is not american this is not what we stand for. and although the individual officer in ferguson was not found culpable for federal charges, nonetheless, that report suggests that there's a set of patterns and practices in that police department which are similarly the sort of thing that this should not be america. who should be responsible for addressing that? >> we all are. it's bigger than ferguson. in my family i have three african-american stepsons and when my husband when they turned 16 years old, he had to take them to the police department and tell them where they lived and to quit pulling them over because they were african-american in a majority white neighborhood. so our family understands this.
