Danny Glover:  Growing up I knew what segregation felt like when I visited my family in Georgia.

When I saw Bernie Sanders getting arrested for protesting segregation it was powerful.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was building a poor people's movement where blacks, whites, Latinos, Asian Americans would come together around economic justice, and that's what Bernie is trying to do today.

I think Bernie is with us, that's why I support Bernie Sanders.

Sanders (voiceover):  I'm Bernie Sanders, and I approve this message.

NEWS: Sanders Campaign Launches Two New Ads in Maryland

BALTIMORE – U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders' campaign on Wednesday announced it has begun running two new television spots in Maryland.

The first ad, "Baltimore," features Ben Jealous, who has longstanding roots in West Baltimore and served as President and CEO of the NAACP from 2008 to 2013. "In Bernie Sanders we have a candidate who says we can do better," Jealous narrates. "This campaign is ultimately about opportunity by saying every public university will be tuition-free. It's about rebuilding our country, our communities because we see in Bernie Sanders a man who supports our values, who will fight for our values, who can win next fall."

In "He's with Us," acclaimed actor and civil rights activist Danny Glover recounts his own experiences with segregation and the similarities between the civil rights movement and today's fight for economic justice. "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was building a poor people's movement where Black, White, Latino and Asian Americans would come together around economic justice and that's what Bernie is trying to do today," Glover says.

Voters in Maryland will choose their preferred Democratic candidate for president on Tuesday.
