Meanwhile, New Poll Paints Less-Than-Rosy Picture Of Race Relations In NYC January 19, 2015 7:35 PM

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) The Rev. Al Sharpton welcomed Mayor Bill de Blasio to his annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration, making it a point to say its a mayoral tradition. As CBS2 Political Reporter Marcia Kramer reported, it was the first time Mayor de Blasio appeared in public with Sharpton since a Staten Island grand jury declined to indict Officer Daniel Pantaleo in the Eric Garner apparent chokehold case.

Mature people know you can disagree without being disagreeable, Sharpton said at the National Action Network headquarters in Harlem, 1010 WINS Derricke Dennis reported.

De Blasio has faced criticism, most notably from the Patrolmens Benevolent Association, for being too close to Sharpton. The police union has claimed Sharpton has fanned the flames of anti-police sentiment, as has de Blasio.

But as WCBS 880s Monica Miller reported, de Blasio received a round of applause that brought a grin to his face as he took the podium.

De Blasio chose both the venue and the occasion to build ties with the NYPD passionately attacking those who attack police officers.

I think its up to all of us to say to those who purport who purport to want change if youre saying something vicious and vile to a police officer, youre not making change. Youre not moving us forward. Youre holding us back, the mayor said. Respect the people who protect us.

Mayor de Blasio invoked the words of Dr. King to make his point.

Dr. King did not tolerate hate speech, he said. We have to teach that message today.

Sharpton also tried to make amends to police officers, some of whom see him as a lightning rod for negative feelings toward them.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The Rev. Al Sharpton and the family ofEric Garner will hold a vigil Monday night in Tompkinsville on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day as a finale to commemorations that will stretch from Washington D.C. to Harlem.

As president and founder of the National Action Network in Harlem, Rev. Sharpton will be rubbing shoulders with Mayor Bill de Blasio and other local and national politicians throughout the day.

Rev. Sharpton and the Garner family "will continue to call for a federal investigation of his killing and possible civil rights violation" at the 8 p.m. vigil on Bay Street near Victory Boulevard where Eric Garner had his fatal encounter with the NYPD.

In the afternoon on Monday, Rev. Sharpton, the family of Eric Garner and hundreds of supporters bused from the National Action Network will lay a wreath at the site at Myrtle and Tompkins Avenues in Brooklyn where NYPD Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were assassinated. Rev. Sharpton was quick to disavow any connection to the shootings.

"Dr. King would have denounced senseless violence & stressed our movement for justice in police reform, a movement that is not anti police or a hate of police movement," said a news release from the National Action Network.

Mayor de Blasio, and Senators Charles Schumer (D-NY) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) are scheduled to join Rev. Sharpton in a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Policy Forum that will be live streamed beginning at 1 p.m. at NationalActionNetwork.net.

On Monday morning, Rev. Sharpton and the National Action Network are hosting a breakfast at theswanky Mayflower Hotel in the District of Columbia with guest speakers U.S. Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell of Health and Human Services and U.S. Secretary, Julin Castro of Housing and Urban Development.
