i was looking forward to the day where i would see harriet tubman on our u.s. currency. i hope that that will still happen. i wanted to thank you supervisor sc14 -- stefani, it is very important that our daughters get to look at statues of women who have accomplished amazing things in our society. and something that they rarely get to do today. if they get to see a woman depicted on a statue, it is usually a fictional woman. a character. very rarely is it actually a human being who lived at accomplish great things. we know there is no shortage of women who have done that in the united states. thank you so much. >> chair mandelman: thank you. are there members of the public who would like to speak on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. the item is before us. i believe we need to act first on the amendment. so moved. we can take the amendment without objection. and then. >> supervisor ronen: i moved to bring this for the positive recommendation. >> chair mandelman: great. we will do that without objection. all right. thank you. mr clerk can you call our next

harriet tubman and the chinese admiral -- then we had a stand alone. the standalone was general robert e lee. and we put him because of all the figures in my life in my youth, he was the iconic leader. i went to the school he went to. and to me he was the exemplar of military and quality leadership. and it is complex to write about robert e lee now. and i have a complex relationship with his memory. but i did not think i could honestly write a book about leaders, without adjusting the one that had probably spent the most time in my life thinking about. >> you said that we -- you have a portrait of lee that you wife gave you and you threw it out. why did you change your mind about that? >> my wife of 41 years is in the back. when i was a second lieutenant, she spent $25 and bought me this painting of robert e lee. quite a painting you get for $25. framed! and it really was just a print of the more famous painting. and they put acrylic on it to make it look like it. everywhere we lived, i loved it because this was the symbol of what i thought about leade

harriet tubman and the chinese. we had a stand-alone. dear robert ely. we put him because of all the figures in my life and youth, he was the iconic leader. i went to washington high school, west point, for me, he was the exemplar of military and battlefield and quality leadership. it's complex to write about him not. i have a complex relationship with his memory. i didn't think i could honestly write a book about leaders without addressing the one i had probably spent the most time my life thinking about. >> you said you evaluated him and actually something you've thrown out. why is that? why did you change of mind? >> my wife of 41 years is in the back, when i was lieutenant, she spent $25 in brought me this painting of robert. you get quite a painting for $25. it was just a print of a more famous painting and they painted clear critic on it. we have it in our corners everywhere he lived. this is what i thought of leadership, a symbol. then after charlottesville, he asked me, what about the picture. what you mean, you give it to me. i could never get r

so amazing suffragists like harriet tubman, susan b.yes. >> stephen: not only running but the female voters actually made a huge difference this year >> let's talk about that because the right to vote is so important and we saw it in full force in this election. you have stacy -- stacey abrams fighting so hard today to make sure every vote in georgia counts and she's going to make sure there's a recount and everyone's voice is heard. this book is for our kids to read so chirp know how important their voices are. this right was so hard to earn and that's why stacey abrams is the suffragist today. she's making sure every person's vote in georgia counts. we are having recounts in florida, georgia and arizona and my dear friend is ahead by 2,000 votes! ( cheers and applause ) >> stephen: you have been saying for a long time now you don't want to talk about 2020 because you're concentrated on 2018, midterms are over, what are you concentrating on now? is there another election that you might be concentrating on, senator? for now? >> well, so

there has been a full color photograph of harriet tubman that has been circulating in the last few days. and it was striking. it was taken in 1911 at her home and here she is, this aged woman sitting in a chair hunched over, and you can look into her eyes and start to think about all of the people that she went back and rescued from their own enslavement. she didn't go back one day or three days, she went back over and over again. she took every single chance she had to make sure everybody got free. and if she can keep doing trk then i don't have any excuse. i can't give up. that is our responsibility. that is the moral code that i was raised with. and i am hopeful that if people get anything from listening to me, they know that they have power within their own grasp and they can seize that power and influence the world if a good way. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. >> a much needed of hope to end our program and a reminder there that there can be room fno room moral come place sensy. thank you for watching and join us tomorrow night. >> uniworld is a proud sponsor of "amanpour & co

less well known people like sojourner truth or harriet tubman or alice paul or inez mulholland.da b. wells. each of them did something extraordinary. we are going to be 100 years since america had the right to vote for women in twenty twenty. so telling that story now it's really timely. it's also timely because of what just happened in this 2018 election. the fact that so many women have been marching, since president trump was inaugurated, showing up, going to town halls, doing sit-ins, doing vigils, trying to be heard and being heard at the ballot box. and being heard as candidates. we saw some amazing women win across america. who are changing everything. lucy mcbath won in a seat that was lost last cycle. as a black woman who lost her son to gun violence, her voice was not only passionate and authentic, but it was a new voice. and a voice that people wanted to support. and that's why she's going to congress. >> and again, congress, the democrats flipped it. the democrats also flipped seven governors i believe across the united states. and several state legislators. but also

my last stop before vermont will be auburn, new york, to visit harriet tubman's resting place. i'm in the middle of a literature fellowship, and this drive is part of my research. i'm thinking it might inform a future collection of stories possibly set in new orleans and other parts of the south or maybe some essays. i'm interested in the ways we preservey the past, we mostly beingrl but not limited to the settler colonial nation-state most commonly referred to as the united states. i'm interested in what we build monuments to, the fictions we tell about our yesterday and how these fictions inform and shape our violent presence. i'm not quite sure what i'm doing. i'm guilty of remonth sizing the south to -- mow plant sizing the -- row plant seizing the south to a certain extent. my desire for black homes romanticize a place they've never actually lived for any significant amount of time and have constructed mostly from other people's shaky, loving dreams, joy-filled lives and heart-felt terror. but i do romanticize it, especially new orleans. when my parents left new orleans in

harriet tubman escaping slavery and going back and back into danger to save people.n's rights to vote in 1913. she created that, it was her vision, and it seemed like the women's march right after president trump was inaugurated. >> so many great stories. you've got to get this book. i wish we had more time for questions but wee out of time. thanks for coming in.

they help whole-- honed my skill >> you know harriet tubman would say to her, when you hear the dogsing, keep going. >> that's a bunch of barking. >> keep going as that's a distraction. right-wingers are distraction and they will keep you off your game every time, so you really have to have a purpose for attitude about change and you got to have courage. doctor angelo said without courage of nothing and that's what propels us, all four of us, just that little bit of courage and if we don't have it we back each other up and get plenty of courage of their. >> the three of us are still on the rules committee of the dnc. we still care about the rules. reverend jackson said you got to know the rules in order to know how to break the rules, so they got to come past as to change rules. we don't win every fight, but we are at the table when they are talking about equal representation and diversity and how the delegates are selected, so they know it's the three of us and there's more of us. we are a firewall. >> we will look at you. arizona said they could not find native americans. i said go
