they only want social housing but most of the housing in san francisco, most of us live in housing that was built by developers who are making money. building houses is not easy and someone has to do it. i don't really care who does it. we're going to have five hundred fifty people paying below market rate and five hundred fifty at market rate is fine. the stity stil city still has ty some of these homes-i'm all for creating more space for people to live. doing it in a smart way that's kind of friendly. attacking our homeless problem p. this is a long time coming. thank you supersizo supervisor g this. i doan know the density number on this but it's not anywhere near on the east side of the city. thank you for your consideration. thank you for listening for everybody. i'm looking forward to seeing this come to fruition. >> : thank you. your time's expired. thank you for your comments. may we have the next speaker, please. >> : supervisors, let me tell you something that nobody has said before. before the accreditation of city college was planned. the plan was to take the entire city col

we have been offering housing and services for 60 years. we provide on a daily basis to 1100 men, women and children residential services from emergency housing, transitional treatment all the way to permanent housing. among the special populations we serve include veterans, unaccompanied homelessyouth, youth aging out of foster care and in particular the survivors of human trafficking . florida ranks third in the nation of human trafficking cases and in miami-dade county where we lived is the biggest trafficking hub in florida. probably not surprisingly because we are a tourism base and tourism drives a lot of human trafficking for sexual exploitation and in particular because we have a lot of great events like the super bowl thatbrings a lot of movement in our community . the camilla house phoenix project offers a 16 bed residential treatment program for adult victims of human trafficking. we know that adult victims of human trafficking are more often than not minor who are human late traffic and eventually became adult and tragically con

in-house. he championst, these issues that need does theng and he become a national figure and another object we have that relates to that is a program from a speech he is giving in dayton, ohio, very far from chicago. he doesn't even say what he's going to talk about. he's just speaking and that happened at the local junior high school. and all kinds of terrific who ha around the entire thing and he's being presented as a statement who is important to the african-american community. toward the end of his career, probably earlier in his career, is part of the notion of surrogate representation. >> the fact you are representing people beyond the borders of your district or state. you are a national figure. of oscar't inc. depriest now as much of a national figure -- we do, but many people don't, but in the late 1940's, many people do start to arrive and become national figures. >> he leaves congress in 1935. he's defeated by another african-american from chicago, a democrat, arthur michelle. he'

he leaves the house. when he does, he gives a speech in february of 1901 which is tremendously moving because he knows he is the last african-american who is going to be in congress for a while. he says, phoenix-like, someday the african-americans in congress will rise again and come back. that takes three decades. ms. elliott: what i want to show you one of the saddest parts of the artifacts we have. this is one of the saddest artifacts and the house collection, i think. it's a pretty recent acquisition of ours. this is a 1907 prints that was made of all the colored men who have served in the congress of the united states. it is really a testament to the persistence of hope in the african american community. for participation in public life. this is 1907. george white has been gone for six years. it's going to be another two decades before african-americans returns to congress. this print was done as a memento. in fact, the way it is done is a very popular method of showing a lot of things on the page. i

versus affordable housing. the figure was 21.5% in the latest housing report and the fact that on ou our arena goals, we're meeting or exceeding arena goals for market rate and that's been particularly -- it's more specifispecifically producing co buildings at the higher end of the price bracket. in local six we're leaving the city and it's alarming. every year we're losing 20% of our membership in the city. and so over ten years, if you go 20%, that's almost zero. and so, more often than not, i will be the one guy speaking about the middle-class because it's often forgotten because there aren't the same structure below-market-rate affordable housing. >> i'm sorry, we're having a hard time hearing you. could you please repeat the last five sentences. >> we have done a good job approving lots of units. look at pier 70, the trail power plant, the giant's power plant and that alone is a huge amount of units and, you know, how are we going to equ ec equitably do. i want to look at worker protections which are equal

it passes the house, not the senate, passes the senate not the house. doesn't quite get there. 1918 a new congress is elected and enough pro suffragists are elected because new york passing suffrage that 1919 looks like it might actually happen. so almost exactly 100 years ago in june of 1919, the 19th amendment finally passed both the house and the senate. so now it goes to the states for ratification. this is alice paul. she made a flag where every time a state ratified she would sew a star on. and there were 48 states and you needed 36. so a bunch of states passed it right away. wisconsin, michigan, illinois. a bunch of states voted it down over the summer of 1919. almost entirely in the south and almost entirely for overtly racist reasons. they were not interested in enfranchising a single new black voter. they were systematically dismantling black male voting rights with jim crow laws and they wanted no part of new black voters. so momentum kind of stalls. by spring of 1920, 35 states have ratified. you only need one more. five have voted it down.

white house. this is the 50th anniversary of the nixons coming into the presidency. i think she's really an unher0 n un-heralded first lady. we'll be celebrating that in september. in october our dear friend has a brand new book that's going to be out in october. for the first time ever he's finally unlocking his recipe box and going to be sharing the recipes from his service to five american presidents from jimmy carter to george w. bush and his wonderful confections he created as executive white house pastry chef for those many years. jennifer pickens is an author of "white house christmas" will have a new book out on ceremonies at the white house. we've have a conversation with the chef and jennifer pickens in october. stay tuned for news on that. now for our prime event. i'm very fortunate and you're in for a treat tonight to talk about this important and timely happening in our nation's history and on the centennial of this occasion. we have rebecca boggs reports as our speaker. she has been

housing problem. it's been designed to attract entry level tech workers to keep them in san francisco, and they've not, you know, truly been for the working class who need affordable housing. san francisco does not want this working class. they'd rather have them in the east bay, so i'd like san francisco to truly have some affordable housing programs. thank you. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next caller, please. she hello, caller. welcome. >> thank you. good afternoon, commissioner -- supervisors, excuse me. i'm here to speak in support of the -- in support of the appellant. my name is evelyn. i think we need to press pause for a moment. we have to beware of the consequences of unforeseen circumstances. much of this discussion, if not all of it, took place precovid. we cannot even imagine what's to come. the displacement of students has already taken place. the thought of all this luxury housing glowering down on the students, if any should be here, is grotesque. i urge you to support this.

of 1919 before it passes both houses. and then the senate knew they were sending it out for ratification in the state what's called an off year when most state legislatures were not going to be in session. that was sort of purposeful to make it more difficult and so the suffragists had to convince 30 governors to call the legislators back into special session to consider the amendment. >> elaine weiss sunday night at 8 p.m. eastern on c-span's q&a. >> on thursday virginia senator tim kaine talked about the end of democrats want to see in the next covid relief bill. >> mr. president, here we, go again, another day has passed, nothing has happened, no incremental progress, no compromising. to some it might just be one day, but to too many americans and other dates fighting for your help or how you will pay your rent or how you will feed your kids is a brutal and terrifying thing. what's oneor more day to an average american? it might be a a day closer to e rent being due, without having the money to pay it. it might be anot

the white house press corps. and i think that we were also seeing potentially our camera shot out those windows. so the windows they're looking at, they look out onto the front of the white house, the west front, where many of the reporters if you see reporters from nbc in front of the white house, that's kind of what they're looking out there. there are also lockdowns occasionally for something that is suspicious but likely turns out to not be something worthy of incredible alarm. it will be someone outside the gates or an issue with someone trying to toss something of the fence. we've had that happen in the past. so we want to underscore we don't have any details about exactly what it was that prompted this. but all of our colleagues are remaining inside the room. so that does suggest that there has been a security lockdown where they close those doors and don't let anyone in or out. we're looking at a wide shot of the white house, as well. if you look closely, you can see agents on the roof of the white house.

shotgun houses it is also important to note are african in origin and the people who built these houses were of course africa and african descended slaves building things that were familiar to them. something that is really significant about the whitney big house is the original murals which are here. this is the only part that we have had reconstructed. our conservator had to redo the pattern because it was to deteriorated however, we do have the original on the posts here and these are from the 1840s. this is from a time of great sugar wealth and so that is why this is significant. some people in the 1840s, 1850s, built enormous mansions. and most of our visitors here are expecting to see something like tara, something that they've read about or seen in movies. and by comparison, these are pretty modest houses. but they were able to make enough money using the forced labor of african descended slaves to pay someone to come out and hand paint faux m.a.s.h. marble on baseboards on fireplaces, on the outside walls an the posts and all of the attention to detail, all of that cost a lot of

but given the cost of housing, given the need for housing and the demand for housing, especially in a transit-rich area like this one, i believe this project has reached that balance. the project sponsor has modified the design at the request staff and makes further changes at the request of you. these neighbors felt very strongly that the large tree in the middle of the site needs to be protected and the building needs to maintain a safe distance from it. that means creating a deeper building a bit problematic. this is in two directions to mitigate the impact of this building. having said that, the project sponsor is willing to take further steps, neighborly steps to mitigate this project and it would be easy to make the third-floor decorating adjacent to the dr requester either with a cable or nontransparent glass and sometimes that's creates an issue with birds and i know we can do something. it would be easy to paint the wall on that lightwell of the new building a reflective bright color to mitigate this and the third thing is to paint their lightwell, a reflective non-bright col

now some houses and many houses have been destroyed and others like this house next door have been spared. that's what we see when we come out to fires hike this, they are just -- you never know the pattern or why. houses somehow is burned and others get half by. residents are allowed back into check on their houses. they have to be out at 5:00. everybody is out for the night and until tomorrow. the california national guard is patrolling these neighborhoods, making sure that what's left stays safe. reporting live, i am jodi hernandez, nbc bay area news. >>> a lot to think about in that story, thank you, jodi. >>> the santa cruz mountains now. a second person has died in connection of the czu fire. that fire is 20% contained. officials say a 63-year-old woman was found dead inside her home in the fire zone. 538 structures have been destroyed. thanks to volunteers and technology, thousands of homes are being saved. let's bring in our nbc bay area's marianne favro. >> reporter: raj, the fire department is made up of all of volunteers. they live in this community and they know this area like

carol lee at the white house. thanks to both of you for being with us. >>> and all this week, nbc news and msnbc are talking about coronavirus and the classroom. this as students head back to school or potentially head back to school. today students in baker county, florida, are back in theirclassrooms for the first day of in-person lessons there. students and staff are not required to wear face masks but masks are recommended when prolonged social distancing is not possible. the latest figures show the positivity rate across baker county stands at nearly 30%. joining me now from outside maclainy elementary school in florida is msnbc correspondent sam brock. thanks for being with us. so, we gave some of the stats for the area where you are. the rules here, take us through how this is being implemented. they're saying masks not required, recommended in some circumstances. how are they dealing with this? >> that's the question right now, steve. the million dollar question. why isn't there a requirement on masks sinc

in 1917 they start to pick at the white house. there are two-- picket the white house. it is too long years of picketing. everyday the women would stand outside the white house and hold the silent sentinel as they were referred to by the press. they will either headquarters across lafayette square situated in front of the white house. on the other of life yet square was the headquarters of the national women's party. -- the other side of lafayette square was the headquarters of the national women's party. golddid purple, white and as suffrage colors, with alice paul's new group, the national women's parties. -- national women's party, around 1913. that is what they did for two years. and stood their ground. they also included, you can see at the top, college women. they are wearing the banners of which colleges they went to, so they had thematic days, in which college women would protest. or different state delegations would protest. or even working women would protest, too. they would take, working women only had one day off per week from work. so that was sunday. they

in reality, that house passed bill $3.4 trillion bill, mr. president was a lengthy liberal wish list which even members of the democrat own party dismissed as deadri on arrival, in fact democrats had work to do to persuade members of their own caucus in the house to vote for the bill. political put it at the time, i quote as of late thursday evening, the house democratic leadership was engaged in lawmakers describe as a difficult arm-twisting of the entire congress, convincing the rank-and-file to vote for $3 trillion stimulus bill that will never become law. , that is from politico. the house bill includes coronavirus priorities like funding for diversity and inclusion studies and their marijuana industry, tax cuts, blue state millionaires, federal lysing elections, just a few of the items house passed bill. that is very hard to argue that had anything to do with feeding the coronavirus, the hospital mentioned the word cannabis, more often than it mentioned the word job which tells you all you need to know. about the whole proposal. despite

it died in the house. that bill was reintroduced in the 80th congress as the taft-ellender-wagner bill. the name was slightly changed, but it is practically the same bill. and it passed the senate, but it was allowed to die in the house of representatives. the banking and currency committee sat on the bill, it was finally forced it out of the committee, and the rules committee took charge, and it still is in the rules committee. but desperate pleas from philadelphia in that convention that met here three weeks ago couldn't get that housing bill passed. they passed a bill they called a housing bill, which isn't worth the paper it's written on. [applause] president truman: in the field of labor we needed moderate legislation to promote labor-management harmony, but congress instead passed that so-called taft-hartley act, which has disrupted labor-management relations and will cause strife and bitterness for years to come if it is not repealed, and the democratic platform says it ought to be repealed.

this is on the lawn of the white house. we can go over the question whether it should or should not have been there but this is on the lawn of the white house. this is the president and a vice president who have a coronavirus task force which was not consulted about this event, as our reporting shows. you have to have that picture and you go on to the rest of it. i'll let my colleagues talk about this, but this whole question of softening donald trump. i was listening to speaker after speaker tonight, his daughter saying i wish americans could see him with his grandchildren and other people saying i wish everyone could just see the deep empathy of this man. and that's another thing i think people might be scratching their heads about. you didn't hear him say sleepy joe tonight. called him a lot of other names but seems they finally arrived on the trojan horse for the radical left. but the redrawing over the last four days of who donald trump really is, the question i have is when he steps on the stage p and he's not in fron

so now there's a new public housing so the shelter system is like a public housing because housing is not treated as even the writer of the title meant which it should be either country as pope is this one. and order for us to get. and be a productive society i think it's incumbent upon us to try to resolve this issue that's gone on far too long it's a fundamental right having food good finish your i.q. anybody care to. take a look at the universal declaration of human rights. as the peoples of the united nations have in the charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights in the dignity and worth of the human person and in equal rights. education that it's time to give any. source seems to. me and it's when. it's considered. just general right actually the u.s. doesn't accept the universal declaration that it's supposed to reject most. of that there are 3 parts to this civic and political rights. there's a social and economic. and there's cultural. and they're all are. the u.s. doesn't just dismiss is the cultural community. rejects you know. politicians have concluded that

and stabilize the housing markets. because if we don't, the consequences are going to haunt families and our economy for years. now, i know this. take it from me. in nevada we saw 200,000 families lose their homes because of the 2008 housing crisis. that foreclosure crisis hit nevada so hard, and it has been a long, long road back for so many nevadans. and i am determined not to ever see that happen again and to bring the relief, if i'm in a position, like we all are here in congress to bring that relief, why aren't we in a room negotiating it? why are we not talking regularly? we did it with the cares act immediately. we saw the need and we did something about it. you know, nevadans are always already struggling to find work, to afford food, to stay healthy during this pandemic. plus they're helping their children learn, as schools start to reopen. they cannot effectively do that, none of it, without a safe place to stay, a roof over their head. housing is the key to any sense of stability in our chaotic world right n

trump into the white house. this as biden is expected to announce his pick for running mate this week. here's cbs's ed o'keefe. >> reporter: joe biden returned to his residence in wilmington delaware today after spending the weekend at his second home in rehoboth beach and teasing an potential announcement. >> mr. biden, have you picked a running mate yet? >> yes, i have. >> who is it? >> reporter: so far biden's only known face to face meeting with a contender was with michigan governor gretchen whitmer who made a quick round trip to see biden last week. >> have you been interviewed by vice president biden? >> happy sunday. >> reporter: cbs news is told several others including susan rice spotted sunday in washington, have been on stand- by for a potential interview since the end of last week. in addition to rice, biden's potential choices include about a dozen mayors, governors and lawmakers. and as biden ponders his choice today he received a stark warning from more than 100 politically active black male lead

when we arrived at my should go safe house in a ruby where method games and laughter. and the playful soundtrack can be had been in every corner of this 3 bedroom family house it's not much space but founders florence care and yvonne when she could have managed to squeeze in 29 people. to be. one of them survivors of sexual violence. it was just like it's just in your house you have 4 children 5 children that's what you need me in the shop so you. and i think it's it's even a limited space because we are denying girls entry here which also hotspots even. kenya has only one government run safe house which makes such privately run shelters essential for survivors of. survivors like 16 year old maria not her real name she came here after she was raped at gunpoint by a soldier who had hired her as a maid. after he raped me i got off the bed and found a metal thing to loosen the 2 shirt he had used to tie me. i removed him out gog and then continued going to work because my mom asked for than mine and he also threatened to kill my wife and i only have one part and. maria's

shelter is a band aid to the issue of really the solution is house if you've got limited housing opportunities you've got limited opportunities to house the homeless so it's really been a push in our community to get more housing stock on the ground so that we can solve homelessness and not just band-aid it was shelter. without housing report was we put it out in 2006 we formed rat. in 2005 and immediately started. funding trends and affordable housing and both were all through the u.s.d.a. u.s. department of agriculture and urban through housing and urban development because we wanted to look at we know the shelter system started in the late eighty's early 83 and by mid 1983 was across the country by 1987 the federal government had passed almost as a major program of their. what the hell happened right before that. is really usually truth is there any truth in the news also but there's this one creature known as say about trucks. but it's. not just. a free. market. but if. you push too much he gets more some. protesters reportedly been killed during the anti-government clashes in minsk often

she was an only served one term in the house. then she came back to the united states congress after she had lost the bid to become senator. jeanette rankin did serve an important role when she was in the house. they made her the chair of committee that we consider the nine to the amendment, even though she was only a freshman member of congress at the time. she did throw her support behind the amendment so women across the united states would have the right to vote. jan, you are next. i have a story to tell about my grandmother, who was born in 1869. she was 50 years old. ratified.mendment was my mother was talking to her. she was from north carolina, as was my grandfather. she was baptist. he was republican. she was democrat. my mother asked out right on election day, why are you going down to vote? wn to vote? you are only canceling each other out. she said, because i waited too long to get the right to vote and i am going to exercise it. from my grandmother. host: thanks for sharing the story with us. guest: that is a terrifi

reporter: far from the white house? president trump: i can only tell you they will give you a briefing. it was outside the fence. reporter: pretty close. president trump: pretty close. i was telling you that the dow jones and the s&p 500 are now 50% above the march level. nasdaq is setting new records. it is already broken the record despite the situation of having the china virus. we have new jobs arising and unemployment is falling faster than nearly anyone thought. over the past three month we've created over nine million jobs. that's a record, a three-month record if you add it up, it's a three month record by far. and we beaten expectations by 12 million, 12 million above expectations which is pretty remarkable. today we had great reports on new job openings and, there is clearly a housing boom which has been incredible numbers in both housing and automobile boom. we've rarely seen anything like it. it is going on right now in america. inventories are at rock bottom. used car sales are at record levels. and we will

so now there's a new public housing so the shelter system is like a public housing because housing is not treated as even right in the title mind which it should be the country is both yours as well. and order for us to get. and be back to society and company office to try to resolve this issue it's gone on far too long. it's a fundamental right like having food and finish. a cuban bake chair. take a look at the universal declaration of human rights. as the peoples of the united nations have in the charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights in the dignity and worth of the human person and in equal rights. that's just like any. one of my kind of money and it's when. it's considered. just general right actually the u.s. doesn't accept the universal declaration it's explicit. most. of that there are 3 parts of this civic and political right. sort of social and economic. and there's cultural. and the wrong or. doesn't just dismisses the cultural community. rejects you know. ringback politicians have concluded that there is no answer because the answer requires resources i

house democrats are now investigating. two parts of tuesday's convention were filmed inside the white house. trump pardoned a convicted bank robber who went on to start a nonprofit to help formerly incarcerated people reintegrate into society. trump, along with acting homeland secreted director chad wolf, held a naturalization ceremony inside the white house for five immigrants from bolivia, lebanon, india, sudan and ghana. the evening ended with a speech by firstst lady melania trump in the white house rose garden. >> just like me, i know many of know how mean social media can be. and just like me, i'm sure many of you are looking for answers how to talk to your children about t the downside of technoly and the relationships with their peers. amy: melania trump spoke in front of a live audience in the rose garden where the vast majority of attendees, including presidenent trump and mike penc, did not wear masks. cnn reports many attendees were not tested for coronavirus prior to the event. meanwhile, republicans canceled

that's not a barbie's dream house. that's the american people's house. >> there is also -- i'm saying the thread between using the white house and also using that sort of prop naturalization ceremony, you can also follow that through to doing the pardon -- >> yes. >> as part of the convention tonight and having the serving secretary of state give an address while on a diplomatic trip and using a federal building. >> that's right. >> and all of these other federal properties, all of these things that basically are the province of the u.s. government, using them for partisan purpose is against regulation and law in some cases, but there's a reason it strikes us all wrong. >> it's monarchical. >> it's the use of the powers of the presidency for a partisan end. >> i'm struck by two things. you know, we overuse this idea of norm-busting, but they are showcasing something so -- you know, norm-busting is, you know, someone from the campaign shows their face in the west wing. george w. bush didn't let campaign staff in the wes

houses are totally gone. houses that are totally gone. what do you know of the teams like the cajun navy out now looking for people who may be trapped in their homes or who may need some help? >> at 1 11:00 last night i was talking to the cajun navy pulling elderly people out of a home and waiting on transportation to get them to safe shelter. they are out there working day and night along with the first responders. and are getting as you said many of these homes are out on the coast isolated areas. very difficult to get to and look, i rode out katrina, never again. i urged people to get out. we always see people that won't leave their belongings and stay and believe they can protect them. and risk their lives. so hopefully we'll find more survivors as we get to these remote areas. >> >> trace: lieutenant governor, best of luck to you and your people. >> sandra: a new controversy unfolding in kenosha, wisconsin as the city sees another night of protests. why the culture within the cities' police department is getting more attention and so
