Historian Jason Sokol talks about New Orleans’ Ninth Ward – the 1960 battle to desegregate its schools. In his new book There Goes My Everything: White Southerners in the Age of Civil Rights, 1945-1975, he looks at how the civil rights movement changed the meaning of being white. Also, Democratic New York State Attorney General candidate Sean Patrick Maloney. Plus, Congressman Anthony Weiner and New York Times editor Sam Roberts discuss U.S. poverty rates. In addition, Jerry Taylor of the Cato Institute and Dale Bryk, senior attorney for the NRDC, debate the new California emmissions standards.
