question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Simeon Booker Jr. is Neutral . Two leading journalists who covered the civil rights movement of the 1950s and '60s died yesterday. Roy Reed was white. Simeon Booker Jr. was black. As NPR's Neda Ulaby reports  each in his own way helped open the nation's eyes to the struggle against racial injustice.
ULABY: Roy Reed went on to cover the civil rights movement for The New York Times. He was 87 when he died.  Simeon Booker  was 99. Both men were there during the pivotal march from Selma to Montgomery  Ala.  when police attacked protesters on Pettus Bridge.  Booker  was working for Ebony and Jet magazines. In 2013   he  told NPR  he  was just as shocked as any other Northerner by what was going on in the South.
ULABY:  Booker  was the first full-time black reporter at The Washington Post. Wil Haygood got there years later. He told NPR in 2007  Booker 's experiences were not easy.
WIL HAYGOOD:  He  would go out and  he  would introduce  himself  to people as  Simeon Booker  of The Washington Post. And  he  said people would throw their heads back and just start laughing out loud in  his  face because they thought  he  was joking because they had never met a black reporter from The Washington Post. I mean  that's just heartbreaking.
ULABY:  Booker 's colleagues would not sit next to  him  in the cafeteria. After only two years   he  left. While working at Ebony and Jet   Booker  heard about the murder of a 14-year-old accused of whistling at a white woman.  He  took a photographer to Emmett Till's funeral. The pictures of Till's open casket and mangled face became a civil rights catalyst.  Booker  found stories no one else could.
ULABY: Wil Haygood says  Simeon Booker  became friendly with an FBI agent who'd tip him off to danger.
 BOOKER : My whole life was one of fright in newspapering when I was in the South.
ULABY: Later  some criticized  Booker  since the FBI was also working at the time to undermine the civil rights movement.  His  wife of 40 years  Carol McCabe Booker  co-wrote  his  memoir. Almost to the end  she says   Simeon Booker  loved speaking about  his  experiences. One question  she said  came up over and over.
CAROL MCCABE BOOKER: What kept you going back down there? And  he  answered so matter-of-factly  it was my job.
answer:
no

question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Randy Bryce is Neutral . Randy Bryce  -- a Democratic organizer and union iron worker who's never held elected office -- gained national attention with a viral video that debuted last month announcing  his  congressional bid. The video  which pitches Bryce as a "working man" and focuses on health care  racked up nearly a half-million views in the less than two weeks it's been online and drew attention from left leaning activists and national media.
"Let's trade places   Paul Ryan " Bryce  said in the ad. "You can come work the iron  and I'll go to DC. "
"I've just had enough. People are fed up "  Bryce  said in a phone interview. "It's just a really crooked place in Washington  DC."
Even with the attention the video has attracted   Bryce 's odds of unseating the Wisconsin Republican at this point appear extremely low. While polling for congressional districts is historically scarce and unreliable  Ryan has never lost a race. In fact  he's never won with less than by double-digit margins. He bested his opponent by nearly 35 points in 2016. Ryan has also been a prolific fundraiser  raising millions not only for himself but to preserve his party's control of the House
When asked to respond to  Bryce 's announcement video  Ryan campaign spokesman Zack Roday said   "Bryce  is a liberal agitator in Wisconsin. He is not a political novice; he is a three time failed candidate who has been repeatedly rejected by southern Wisconsin voters for his far left positions."
It is true that  Bryce  doesn't have a great record of success in running for office.  His  two campaigns to serve in the state legislature were unsuccessful  as was  his  2013 bid for the Racine County Board of Education.
The fundraising arm for House Republicans also made note of this point. The National Republican Campaign Committee said  Bryce 's "petty attacks against Paul Ryan will be rejected by voters in the same fashion that his three former failed campaigns have been."
But after a spring where Republicans in Congress struggled to find enough support to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act with a GOP alternative  perhaps it's no surprise that  Bryce 's video  which centers on  his  own difficult experiences with health care  took off online.
"It's just a cruel way to govern "  Bryce  told CNN in reference to the latest Senate Republican health bill.
Set to an emotional soundtrack   Bryce 's announcement video opens with a clip of Trump touting Ryan's work on the Republican health care plan. Then it moves to Ryan talking about the bill. Panoramic shots of "southeastern Wisconsin" -- where Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District is located -- fill the screen.
The ad features  Bryce 's mother who talks about  her  fight with multiple sclerosis and how the GOP health plan would affect  her .
Though  she  has been able to get treatment   Bryce  described the helplessness  he 's felt in dealing with  her  condition.
"There were some times when I'm in a room next to  her   and  she 's in a room just screaming in pain  you know  and I'm like  'I can't do anything. I don't know what to do. I can't help  her .' "
Bryce himself  has faced difficult medical conditions. When  he  left the Army after serving abroad in Honduras   he  was diagnosed with prostate cancer.  He  didn't have insurance at the time  but considers  himself  lucky because  he  was able to get care through an experimental treatment at a nearby medical school.
 He  beat the cancer  but  his  mom continues to struggle with MS  and  his  father -- who was not in the ad -- lives in an assisted living facility with Alzheimer's.
Bryce's son  Ben  also drew mentions in the video and at the first campaign rally.  Bryce  calls  him  "a miracle" because doctors had told  Bryce  that  he  likely wouldn't be able to have children as a result of  his  prostate cancer.
answer:

yes
