. >> guest: i'm from california. i grew up in indian country in far morning california. my father was a school psychologist, so i knew lot of indian people growing up and then we moved to los angeles, and suddenly i was wearing an indian on my letterman's jacket but i was wondering, where are all of the indian people? it wasn't apparent to me at that point we're in right now on the land, the most poppous indian city in the western united states. didn't know that. so i began to wonder where aberdeen went and i began to study the history and the further i went into it, the more terrified became by what i was seeing. that it was the state of california, our very first democratically elected governor in california under u.s. rule declare, and i quote, war of extermination will be waged until the indian race becomes extinct and at first i thought he was a rouge madman, and then i see right away the state legislature puts the power of the purse behind his words, raises money, originally to the tune of half a million dollar

and the california indian catastrophe 1846 to 1873. thanks for joining us on booktv. >> thanks very much. >> next on booktv robert o'neal the formally navy s.e.a.l. credited with a killing of osama bin laden talks about his military career and some of the 400 missions he participated in. this program contains language that some may find offensive. >> it is my pleasure to welcome

that's what california is all about. that's what commercials have been about for many years but that's not what california is about. if you know anything about california and i have studied this state for 50 years or more, you realize that this state is so topsy-turvy is like a rollercoaster gone bad. it can be a boom state economically one year. it can be in a hole 30 billion dollars the next. it's a state that embraces immigrants as it has in the past at times. it can be a state that is absolutely encouraged to make immigrants feel uncomfortable. it's a state where there is nothing but flowing water and enabling everybody to grow and use for reference purposes and can be a state five or six years later where there's nothing to drink. there are so many extremes in california and just when we think we are getting on top of things they fall down. so that's why i say the rise and fall. it comes and goes, up and down but at the end of the day it is certainly i think the most exciting place to be. the rise of courses the up-

in fact in 1972, the people of california reintroduced the death penalty into california based on initiative process. at the top of the senate, right above the president pro tempore desk you see a bronze statue of minerva. she's called athena in greece. she was placed on the california state seal in 1849. but minerva represented also california's becoming a state. without ever being a territory. minerva in her ancient roman story spring full grown from the brain of jupiter and she was never a baby and never a young child, just right off the bat, full grown. like california that became the 31st state without ever being a territory. and that we were pretty proud of that in 1849. to put that on the state seal in 1849, not having been a state yet, they were -- that was it. they had decided, we were either going to be a state or an in dependent repuck liblic and tha she is up there. and we are in one of our historic rooms, the first floor was turned into basically a first floor museum. showing people what government was like, the office culture of the turn of the srncentury. so we are in the gove

i'm from california. my family is from there.e i was there this morning, but it just seems like a big move, so let's get specific. if california becomes its own country, do you plan to give citizenship to the illegals within your borders? do you intend to have a border policy as a country? >> yes, of course we would haveb a border policy. if you are a nation, you need your borders. citizenship to illegals, a definitely a pathway to citizenship that is much quicker than what the united states has right now. c we are already working. we want them working without that stress. they are a key part and integraw part to california. we really need them to, they are the backbone of our economy, the fifth largest economy, and they are really a big part of it. we want them to be comfortable here. have a good path of citizenship. >> tucker: what about all thet federal land in california, the military bases in california? those don't belong to the state. do you pay market value for those? >> the military bases we woul

rain in northern california. two thirds, one third of the water is generated in southern california to the problem of southern california has two thirds of the population and northern company which by the way is very generous because a lot of people's just north. don't tell that to the people in california because as hard as they are concerned we are all urban scum, but the fact that most of the water is in northern company must of the population in southern california said the problem in itself and add onto that agriculture uses about 80% of the water and sets up an incredible competition and figh between farmers and environmentalists coupled with urban users, so the battle here is endless. you're not going to find more water in california. if you are lucky you will get a decent. alone accounts for one third of our water. no snow, you're in trouble. but the colorado aquifer, the aquifer in central valley which now has been drained thanks to the drought. so if they are always looking for water and the environment

if you know anything about california and i was born in california , studied this state 50 years or more, you realize that this state is so topsy-turvy, it's like a roller coaster gone bad. it can be a boom state economically one year, it can be in the whole $30 billion the next. it can be a state that embraces immigrants as it has in the past, it can be a state that has done everything it could to make immigrants feel uncomfortable. it can be a state where there is nothing but flowing water enabling everybody to grow and use for whatever purposes and it can be a state five or six year later's later where there's nothing to use. there's so many extremes in california and just when we think we're going to get at the top of things, it can fall down. so that's why the rise and fall. it comes and goes, up and down but at the end of the day, it's certainly i think the most exciting place to be. the ride has been up and down, it's not just one ascendant. california has an incredible boom with the gold rush, that's what started it all and all those people came to california and they basically s

your book begins in 1846 california came into the union in 1850. back then there was that was ay quick time frame wasn't as? >> it's an extraordinary thing. i'm not a subscriber to the exceptionalism as you know the book pushes against that pretty hard but it is a rapid turnaround because of the extraordinary wealth provided in the gold rush and the extraordinary migration, so the migration to california is the single largest mass migration of the united states 19th century so by 1850 there is already a substantial number of people and it's also because the generals in charge were not activists and in fact they encouraged the democratic process to happen very quickly, so the california state constitutional convention happens in the fall of 1849 almost a year before statehood, so they seiz seized the day hern california to move very rapidly and one of the interesting things about the constitutional convention is they came one vote away from advertising to california indians. so we see again and again in the story have a history of california could h

i'm not so sure he keeps california. maybe he does but we have kevin mccarthy who is the majority leader they would be able to exercise a lot of common sense and lethbridge so i'm not so sure someone like president trump would be able to turn this state upside down, but it's definitely going to be a different era to play itself out. california matters because it is so often the first and if it's not the first is among the first. but if you look at things like environmentalism, by the way democrats and republicans, arnold schwarzenegger will go down in history for a lot of things but in terms of his governmental legacy will be 8032, which is the bill that initiated california and the larger percentage of its power from alternative energy way ahead of everybody else. this was pretty amazing so the environmentalism is here, the women's movement. one third of the congress is female, that is about double the national average. one third of the congress membership is minority which is close to double the national average so thi

in california? those do not belong to the state. do you pay market value for those? >> the military bases we would reach out like germany does and south korea does, and to pay a yearly fee to california, and as far as the federal land -- >> tucker: so you would have foreign troops on your soil, you would have thousand of marines from another country in your country, why would you do that? >> the united states does out to every other country on the planet. >> tucker: when we are invited in or beat them in the second world war, yes, but why would california do that? >> in japan and in korea, you are here already. the united states military bases are here, keep them here. if they want a slow withdrawal, they can take them back, the bases back, but i've no problem with united states being here. >> tucker: you are using the words a day and you, you already don't think that you are part of the united states. >> this is california, tucker. we are not the united states. our values are different. we are fund

from california direct. nicaragua, the quickest, cheapest and safest, that's what they claimed, whether it's true is another matter. the third way to go on the overland trail, and of the three routes taken this was the one that was done most frequently. as we know, the oregon trail had really opened up in about 1843 or '44 so five or six years previous to this. from trial and error they found out the best way was to go up the missouri river, up to the plant river, across the rockies across the lowest point at south pass, then pick up the head waters of the snake river and go in order until it meets the columbia river and down the colombia as far as portland and that's where the great oregon farm land was. it was at this point that various cutoffs were established, particularly the california trail with a cut off down here towards sacramento itself. so this is approaching it over land rather than going by sea. but the oregon trail intrins intrinsically very difficult itself. and thrown if you took the califor

but not here in california. according to uc berkeley's school of business, he points out california has a unique state mandated cleaner burning gasoline that is not tied to texas, or the rest of the country. >> usually that's bad news, because we have higher prices and get in trouble when california refineries go offline. but in this case it's good news because we're less likely to be affected by the outages in the texas refineries. >> reporter: obviously any pain at the pump is nothing compared to the suffering in texas. the western state's petroleum association is helping colleagues in the lone star state. >> hopefully we're able to bring these facilities back online and supplies will begin flowing. but that being said, again, we're a very diverse industry and we'll be looking to other locations to make sure we can source those needs. >> reporter: right now, about 19% of oil produced in the gulf has been shut down. carolyn tyler, abc 7 news. >>> astronauts aboard the international space station tweeted this pi

if you then took the california trail it was even worse. by doing that you have to go into northern nevada to a place called humboldt sink. the river called the humboldt river which is usually a dry river bed. it only has water in it for a few days every year. mostly bone dry. you have to cross this incredibly hot desert. and all along the way people died from various things. to make matters worse you had to cross the mountains themselves. and they're very formidable. tfts harder crossing the sier ra nevada than the rockies. already by then, one of the most famous incidents in history of america, cannibalism had taken part there. a group of immigrants set from independence, missouri, took the california cutoff, part way up the mountains when a very severe blizzard snowed them in. they weren't capable of going forward any further but neither could they get down the mountains because -- the snow was too thick. many of them died and the survivors ate the bodies of their relatives who died in order to survive. of course news of this spread very

plodded there were a number prisoners located outside of california and some inside of california. my question is for ms. woodford. you think you're more people currently held in private prisons in california? do you think that's going to be at trend that continues in the states are going to gain more power as time goes on? >> no i don't think that's going to happen in california at all. we have had a on private prisons i believe it was 4500 for a long, long time and all efforts to increase that have never gone anywhere. the only reason california sabott status because of the on the numbers that could be housed within our prison system. this date has been doing everything they can to eliminate those out-of-state heads because they are expensive and addition to that you are sending inmates away from their family members. i think those private beds will come to an end actually. >> next question. >> hi. my name is dayton and one question i had was sitting back there with my friends, i know it's all my youth wasted in the back and we listen and i was especially. one thing i was going t

i have only been a resident of richmond, california, for five years. prior to that, i spent 30 years as a national union representative for communication workers, did some freelance writing on the side about labor issues, strikes, organizing, bargaining, union based political action. when i moved to richmond after retiring from my full-time job with communication workers, i was drawn to the richness of the city, its colorful history and many current challenges, inspiring emergence over the last 10 or 15 years, one of the most successful city based municipal reform movements led, as john said, by a very unusual coalition of green party members, socialists from two or three groups, independents, dissident, black and latino democrats, independent voters. in richmond 10 or 12 years ago people overcame political differences, decided to rebrand as the progressive alliance to run candidates but not just run candidates for the council mayor but to build a membership organization has 300 to 350 members in a city of 110,000. dues paying membership-based group th

in 1972, the people of california re-introduced the death penalty into california based on an initiative process. at the top of the senate, right above the president pro tem desk, you see minera. you see her around the capitol a lot. she was placed on california's state seal in 1849. but she represented also california's becoming a state without being a territory. in her ancient roman story, she sprung full grown from the brain of jupiter. so she was never a baby and never a young child. just right off the bat full grown like california that became the 31st state without ever being a territory. they were pretty proud of that in 1849. in a way, to put that on the state seal in 1849, not having been a state yet, they were -- that was it. they had decided, we were either going to be a state or we were going to be an independent republic. she was a symbol of that, why is why she's one of the biggest things up there. right now, we are in one of our historic rooms at the restoration, the first floor was turned into basically a first floor museum. showing people what government was like, the of

prisoners a number of , about 6000 located outside of california and some inside of california. do you think that there are more people currently held in private residence in california? do think i will be a trend that continues in the states? will private prisons gain more power? >> i don't think that will happen in california at all. the only reason that california is having this state is because of the cap on the number of inmates is within our vision system. the state has been doing everything they can to try to eliminate those out-of-state that's because they are expensive. those private beds out-of-state will come to an end. >> my name is jason. one question i had with my friends and my youth is that all was going to ask what more can we do in our communities to help this keep going in progress? >> thank you for the question, i was going to ask a potentially concluding question. what should we be watching for to try to keep it in check if that gets to the rest of your question. what can we do? would have to be involved at the local level in terms of what happens with your

i have been in some california prisons, but even in california it will be easier, but still you have two or three hours, and that's it. you can't interview particular inmates, and there are a lot of walls. with private prisons it is even more difficult. these are companies. they don't have a lot of public -- the public access laws don't apply, so giving records is really hard, getting information is difficult. these companies have existed for 30 years, and we haven't had a good look inside of them. that was the only way that i could think of to do that, to see what life was like in these prisons. >> do you think a for-profit prison, that private prisons, have a role in our criminal justice system, that they should be there, that they have a beneficial role to play? >> no.
