by putting a quaker face on u.s.id, rather than frustrated or angry german americans, this made the cause much bigger than just the german-american group. he was able to raise much more money because of that. the quakers were the face of aid and then they received a lot of the food aid from the ara and from other organizations. they were already in germany before hoover asked them to expand in the fall of 1919. they started opening shop officially in february 1920. this is a photograph of a warehouse in homburg. this is food that is meant for german children. the american friends service many learned a lot from what had gone on in belgium. hoover and his men perfected the best way to feed children. in their work and feeding children in belgium and northern france. what they did was they would select children based on these measurements that teachers had taken during the war and before the war of the same system. they created the triad system and used institutions that had existed well before they came, rather than tr

and they quaker's who were passive us and quicker face was rather than frustrated or angry which made the cause much bigger than just the american groups were able to earn and raised much more money. the quaker's in the face of aid and received a lot of the food from the other organizations are already in germany before hoover asked them to expand in early 19 or i should say in the fall of 1919. they were there in february and this is a photograph of the warehouse in hamburg with german children and the committee learned a lot but hoover perfected the best way to feed children and were in the north of france so they would select children based on these measurements and the teachers had taken during the war for the system and they use the institution that was listed and created new ones. children who were founded in the shortest and the hungriest were teachers or doctors and were given food first. they were into four different groups in the number one group being healthy and the number two group met the children are little deprived and for severely deprived and were in the bottom two g

karin: i spent a long time looking at quakers who enslaved people. question to the bigger you're asking because there is a lot to be said about the deep roots of the slave trade in the quaker community, and among some of the most prominent quaker families in philadelphia, and prominent politicians of the time. i think the bigger question you are asking is, can we evaluate people outside their own frame of evaluation? i think the answer is, first of all, yes because we are living here, and they were living there. does not always ask you to make a moral judgment, but sometimes it really does. the second thing is when you say when everybody thought, it is not everybody. it might be the people in their small community or what we would call today an information bubble that views that, but even just -- i realize when you invoked about au are talking late 17th century moment, and i am about to vault us ahead to the mid-18 century, but you know, quakers, there are a lot of very active, very intellectual, politicized quaker women by the middle of the 18th cen

one of the quakers was injured in an automobile accident on the way to poland. in his diary, he says he was worried they would be used for german propaganda and he was worried they would not be able to say what needs were. the germans were open to aid from america at that time because in 39 and 40 before the invasions that following spring, they are looking for positive propaganda about their invasion of poland and the fact they might be able to cut a deal with great britain. they are open to propaganda. the hoover people also demanded, yes, we want the poles to be fed, but you also have to feed the jews. it took some time for that to be negotiated, but the germans agreed. for a long time, i did not understand. why would the germans agree? i think i should have figured this out sooner. they were already in control of the government general. they could be used for propaganda purposes. the jewish question was still open in germany in 1939. it is not until january 1942 that the final solution is agreed on in berlin. there is this moment in 1939, 1940, that there is

you have the quakers as the face of the food aid. yes. bert said is really and hisout hoover popularity, but i'm hoping more people will know the story. that's why we are here speaking. this is such an amazing moment in u.s. history, something people should be really proud of. as i mentioned in my lecture, the tendency of historians has been to talk about war in statecraft. it has only been the last decade there has been historiography looking at the humanitarian dimensions of world wars one and two. a number of historians have now discovered the topic, if you will. there is historiography after world war ii about how much suffering there was even beyond the formal termination of the war. historians, there is a batch of them who have taken up this topic. my general impression is the americans don't know much about it because americans are not taught much history going that far back. europeans at least, in my experience -- the europeans remember this. much more. it was more recognition of hoover in belgium in terms of streets and plazas na

quakers do not swear but we do not mind affirming them so the u.s. constitution gives the president the choice to swear or affirm. with religious accommodations that didn't make it into the constitution but he brought it back up with the militia act and when it was debated. in terms of the election of donald trump there are many factors that go into that. and to try to sort them out or evaluate so i will pass on that part of the question. [laughter] i do think it's powerful to use religious arguments. even the people from religion foundation of when matthew says with jesus' sermon on the mount he condemns those as hypocrites so now at government officials who do a day of prayer for instance that can be very effective for go the rise of christian nationalism is what you are talking about but a trauma voter in the 2016 election was not religion is not race or racism thinking it was founded as a christian nation. so donald trump tapped into this in a way we've never seen before that he rode that wave into the most powerful office in the land and this is

what you may not know but i suspect that you do you are in a quaker school. if you have met a quaker you have met a friend with a f-uppercase-letter. we are part of a national network of 78 friend schools. where the obama daughters in chelsea clinton and the quarterback from the atlanta falcons in the chartered philadelphia. mostar are located in the northeast we are the only one in georgia but the quakers inform each a school community in those values are complicity, peace integrity community equality and stewardship. from the acronym spices. so i will clear up some miss - - misconceptions they should not be confused with the amish. [laughter] they do believe electricity and technology and cars and also believe in disrupting social conventions with the radical notion that every single individual is there worth. when at the very first quakers founded the elma matter in 1689 putting democracy to work and needed to be educated. this is only for public education over 300 years making it accessible but then in 1991 and that that those time schools were largely se

this orphan son of quaker pioneers had come for from his humble beginnings in a tiny village in the state of iowa. he rose rapidly in his chosen profession of mining engineering after graduating from stanford university. in 1914, he directed and part controlled an array of mining enterprises that employed 100,000 men. having achieved his early ambition of earning a fortune by the age of 40, he told a friend that just making money is not enough. he wanted to do something more. his opportunity arose in circumstances he could have never imagined. just a few days before his 40th birthday, most of europe plunged into the greatest armed conflict in 100 years. as great britain declared war on imperial germany, hoover wrote to a friend, "if my judgment of the situation is right, we are on the verge of seven years of considerable privation, " he was more prophetic than he knew. it didn't golf much of the world. the struggle against it became the overarching theme of his life. in the chaotic early weeks of fighting, hoover and other leading americans residing in london organized an emergency releas

quakers, the ama, they provide large numbers of teachers. then what happens over the course of the war is more secular organizations begin to be established. the western freemans aid commission, the northwestern freedmans aid commission, and they would start sending teachers into the south as well. they are white and black. they are male and female. a lot of women are sent into these camps. they are not necessarily people who had been teachers before the war. they are people who want to do something. a lot of them were people who had been abolitionist minded before the war and this becomes their way to practice what they preach, almost literally, and go down and try to facilitate this process. >> did they live in the camps? prof. taylor: they did. what that means they become an important source when it comes to researching this history. i relied a lot on military records, and also the account on f these teachers and missionaries. they write lots of reports back north to their organizations or letters to their families. i've found some of the

palmer was a progressive, a quaker, who was the attorney general of the united states. it resulted in the arrest of 4000 people, immigrants mostly, most of them hard-working just workers who did not speak english. they certainly were not going to start a revolution here. but many of them were beaten up. people were denied representation, and there was really, most of them had nothing to do with radicalism. but there were bombings, a series of bombings in this country, including the home of a. mitchell palmer. wall was a bombingo on street, can you can still go to wall street and see where the holes were. anyway, it led to some people without representation being sent back to russia, and it was in the united states that perhaps had it been better-known, we would not have had a second red scare. the second red scare of the 1950's, the mccarthy era, that one lasted much longer than the 1919-1920 one, and damaged the lives of thousands of americans. writers, professors, people from hollywood, who were wrongly identified as being enemies of the united states. xenophobia, ver
