a restaurant in british brooklyn has taken those words of emma lazarus to heart. here is nancy giles. >> reporter: the statue of liberty has watched over new york harbor since 1886, and the words on her base "give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free," has inspired millions to come here in search of the american dream, and to leave their nightmares behind. >> why did you end up leaving russia to come to the united states? >> persecution. >> why did you leave ivory coast? >> i needed some place to be safe. >> reporter: asylum-seekers like fanta sylla and ruslan are safe now, thanks to a helping hand from an unlikely place: a little restaurant in brooklyn. >> we're named as emma lazarus. she was a staunch advocate for refugees, we hope we can keep on her good work. >> reporter: kerry brodie founded the restaurant five years ago, to empower refugees through culinary education, a noble idea that began with unthinkable tragedy. what inspired you to start this, to start emma's torch? >> there was a photo of allen curdy, whose body was w

indignant, he was out picking fights with neighbors and who could forget his award-winning portrayal as lazarus. >> just worked out, it happens. this is what i have been dreaming of. >> greg: that's the truth, he probably replayed that moment over and over in his head, it was cheesier than a packers fan eating fondue. nicely done. then there was this clown finding his way back on the tv. >> maybe you're doing it because you're irrationally anxious, maybe you're doing it because you're disconnected or disorganized, maybe there's some sympathetic psychological reasons but maybe you're just being antisocial. in this country, race is a protected category, being an antisocial jerk is not. >> greg: i guess it is at cnn when you're on. in the atlantic, he also says that since biden's america produces 70% of the wealth, they should decide when it's had enough of trump's america who are putting people medically at risk. trump's america. last night i pointed out many of the unvaccinated a people of color who are skeptical of the health care system that screwed them over, there are also tens of thousands
