Jose Diaz-Balart Reports

the -- the significance of this historic honor. >> the significance of it is that on emmett till's birthday, his lynching, his killing was an impetus for the civil rights movement. rosa parks often said when she sat in the front of the bus in montgomery, alabama, that day, that became the spark that started the montgomery boycott. when they told her to move, she said, i couldn't move, all i could think of was emmett till. why? because his mother had the courage to bring his body back from mississippi and pull the casket out and show the world how they beat her son. that is seared into the minds of many, including rosa parks and led into the '60s. i think it's very interesting and in my opinion as a minister

more than a dream? bryan stevenson in montgomery, alabama, welcome to hardtalk. it's great to be with you. it's a pleasure to have you. bryan, i think i'm right in saying that you yourself were brought up, raised, at the tail end of segregation. that is a reality that you experienced. we now live in the era of deeply polarised politics in the united states, but also of black lives matter. as a civil rights lawyer and advocate, do you feel america is travelling in the right direction? well, we've made some progress, but we have enormous challenges to overcome. you're absolutely right, i was born at a time when black children were not allowed to attend public schools. i started my education in a coloured school.

because there you sit in montgomery, alabama, which, as a southern city and the capital as it was of the confederacy for a time during the civil war, it's a deeply symbolic place to be, but before we get to that, let me just focus for a little while on your work as a civil rights lawyer. we spoke quite a few years ago now about the work you were doing, trying to right wrongs, miscarriages ofjustice within america's criminal justice system. i just wonder whether you feel, in the last six or seven years since we spoke, that things have gotten better? you know, it's such a difficult question, steve, because i think we've made progress, but we've also seen the development of things that are new threats. the united states still has the highest rate of incarceration in the world, we still have a system of justice that treats you better if you're rich and guilty than if you're poor and innocent, we still see huge disparities based on race and what kind of sentences are imposed. the pandemic has exposed disparities based on race that reflect this long standing problem. we have won some cases that have made it easier to get some people out ofjails and prisons. we've gotten people who were wrongly convicted some relief.

to appreciate that they have the capacity to overcome these barriers is at the heart of what i'm trying to say. i've been in montgomery, without travelling as a result of the pandemic, for about 20 months, and it's been really interesting to have this kind of time because i've realised that i stand on the shoulders of people who did so much more with so much less. i'm the heir of a generation of black people who would put on their sunday best and go places to push for the right to vote, push for the right to be legally accepted, and they'd be on their knees, praying, knowing that they were going to get battered and bloodied and beaten by the police, and yet they still went. and there is a courage and a strength in that narrative that that young boy needs to hear and understand. my grandparents fled lynching violence in the deep south and had to cope with these threats and this menacing throughout their lives.

in any meaningful way, in our 400—year history and so, we're just beginning to have conversations that might allow us to get there. and as a result, we are way behind where we should be. and part of that has to do with power. you know, the nazis lost the war and, as a result of that, there was this necessity for reckoning. it doesn't mean that what you see in berlin is something that was inevitable. you had to have people willing to talk honestly about that. but as a result of that, they've made progress over the last 60, 70 years that we have not made in this country, even though we've had a longer period of time to respond. crosstalk. i don't want to sound like an extraordinarily naive optimist but there's plenty of stuff going on in the united states today. statues of confederate "heroes" like robert e lee have come down. you have been instrumental in montgomery, as i said — one of the centres of the confederacy — of establishing a new legacy museum.

real change, were pivotal in the movement for civil and human rights in this country. it is called "righteous troublemakers." trouble makers, in the words of john lewis say good trouble, that were righteous, fighting for equality, fighting for empowerment, even though they knew their name was not going to be in the paper. they were not going to be on television. do you know there was a young woman that sat in the front of the bus in montgomery, alabama, before rosa parks? i tell her story and why they didn't rally around her. do you know there was a woman that wrote legal papers, that some of those theories thurgood marshall used in historic supreme court case of brown versus the board of education? they did not give her the credit and the limelight she deserved because she was a woman and lgbtq. i tell stories of those people because i have this use of platform, i want people that should be household names to be
