jamestown, led by mirna, thank you. saint-louis is led by -- our m.n.c. led by sam or wheeze and we have louise here from mehta. you came together in a way when i was frankly asked for those who are possible. it took a village. it took not just community leadership and nonprofit leadership, but it took a mayor and an oewd department the said, yes, we will put our money where our values are. thank you. thank you, mayor breed. it also takes the private sector i know we have representatives. thank you so much for a four and a half million dollar loan to be part of this. let me just say and conclude with three brief opera -- observations. it takes a village. it takes all of a sudden together. this is how it gets done. the second thing i want to say is at a time when our latino community, the immigrant communities are under assault from a so-called occupant of the white house and from economic forces that are looking to push us out, we have to stand up. we have to come together in coalitions with families to say, we are not going away, we are here to stay and

he appeared last year at the jamestown foundation china defense and security conference. his comments were off the record at the time. so this year we keep progressing in how we're advancing with secretary schriver and we're trying to get more attention to this issue. but let me first of all say that a couple words about randy. he is has long been known in the china community as a robust voice on china, leading strategic thinker on china. in 2008 he cofounded the project 2049 with mark stokes. he's been very active in this region for quite a long time and has a wide and distinguished career starting off with the consulting firm armitage international and he's gone onto different areas. of course he's the ceo and president of project 2049, a non-profit research organization dedicated to security trends, lines in asia. he's also served as deputy assistant secretary of state for east asia and pacific affairs. he was responsible for china, taiwan and mongolia, hong kong, australia, new zealand and the pacific islands. many of you have the bio for him. i think that one of the

, jamestown colony since 1619. number two is the flushing remonstrance 1657. number three is the trial and particularly the argument to the jury at the trial of jon peter singer in 1735 remember for the declaration of independence and number five is the constitution of the new york society in 1785. number six is the constitution, 1787. number seven is the monroe doctrine in 1823. number eight is the seneca falls declaration of sentiments 1848. next is the gettysburg address 1863. next is the new colossus which is written for the pedestal of the statue of liberty and i. the two. the poems are in 1883 and the next is the panel to that one is the fireside chat on democracy in 1940 in the last as i said is tear down this wall speech berlin in 1987. >> 13 out of 13. [applause] so we aren't going to talk about 1519 in jamestown but we are going to talk about something that i will be honest with you i have never even h heard of befo. you helped teach me about it flushing remonstrance. what the heck is that? >> this is whe

[applause] so we will not talk about the 19 of jamestown but we will i will be honest but you talk about the flushing that when it is still a dutch colony and is being governed and i live down on 16th street third avenue with a splendid statue of peter stiles it really captures the man's personality. he looks vigorous and energetic with the wooden leg he lost in the wars against spain and looks like you would not want to cross this guy he wants to be in charge of everything. >> he reminds me a little bit of rudy giuliani. [laughter] crazy but effective. despite all the good he did he was a big it. a dutch calvinist, his father was a minister he wanted to impose that on his domain in the new netherlands because there were lutheran and jewish investors in these companies he was told to back off but then there were no quakers they were extremely countercultural religion they did not recognize iraq use the same forms of address and that men and women preach equal so this was very peculiar and threatening so they appeared in the new netherlands he handles them in various ways he almost whips

(applause) >> good afternoon. you have to get through me before we get to happy hour. i promise i'll make that happen with as much alacrity as possible. mark twain said it best, clothes make the man, naked people have little to no influence on society. mark twain also said the more i learn about people, the more i like my dog, so maybe we shouldn't exactly take his word or it. also he dressed like this. why don't we go to the british author robert campbell, who wrote that no man is ignorant, the taelor is the one who makes our clothes. in some measure he makes himself. in short, the clothes make the man. in 18th-century people had a relationship with their clothing. and others who had a role in producing clothing, imprudent importing or selling. this is true for alexandria virginia on the eve of the revolution. they define themselves by adherence t

they stopped at jamestown and then they ended up at berkley hundred as it would be called on december the 4th, 1619. as clifford downey says in his book, the great plantation. they rode to the shore. they dropped their luggage on the hard, winter ground. it was december the 4th. they gazed at the woods enclosing them and they listened in complete silence. 2011 in a command from the captain, he said, gentlemen, kneel so we can say a prayer of thanksgiving. he said we ordained this day of our ship's arrival in the land of virginia shall be perpetually and annually kept holy as a day of thanksgiving to almighty god. that was the first official thanksgiving in the new world, first english thanksgiving in the new world. and it was two years before the pilgrims had their thanksgiving in 1621. >> travel with us to historic sites, museums, and archives. each sunday at 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. eastern on our weekly series american artifacts, this is american history tv, all weekend on c-span 3. >>> next, on american history tv, a discussion on african-american migration over the past century.

the 13 are, the first is the minutes of the first meeting of the general assembly of jamestown colony in 1619. number two is the flushing -- [inaudible] 1657. number three is the trial and particularly the argument to the jury at the trial of john peeter or zanger in 1735. number four, the declaration of independence. number five is the constitution of the new york man you missions society, that's 1785. number six is the constitution, 1787. number seven is the monroe doctrine which is 1823. number eight is the seneca falls declaration are of sentiments, 1848. next is the gettysburg address, 1863. next is the new colossus which is written for the pedestal of the statue of liberty, and i pair the two. the poem has to be seen along with the statue, but the poem was written in 1883. the next is the cross of gold speech, 1896. the penultimate one is the fireside chat on the arse that would of democracy, 1940. and the last, as i said, is the tear down this wall speech, berlin, 1987. >> that was well done. 13 out of 13 -- [laughter] [applause] so we're not going to talk about 1619 and jamest

jamestown -- colonial williamsburg. jamestown. we do not often think of civil war williamsburg.ithin a few short weeks after the battle of waynesburg, we have this massive clash around which brand. -- battle of williamsburg, we have this massive clash around richmond. the failures of scholarship over the last 150 years, it is only within the last few years we have gotten decent books about the battle of williamsburg, the importance of the peninsula campaign. why not write about williamsburg? when you go back through some of the books, some of the best by have six pages-- about the battle of williamsburg. that is it. maybe it is not a sexy topic. maybe it is not nearly as interesting. maybe it would not sell. theould be my goal here to -- in the next three and a half hours of my lecture -- [laughter] >> to make you realize that civil war waynesburg is the most important period. >> you can watch this and other programs on our website for all of our video is archived. that is c-span.org/history. are watching american history tv on c-span3. all this week, see more american history t

. >> a lot of colonies formed boston dates back to the 16 50's, jamestown 1607. years of the british not taxing the colonies, saying baird taxing the citizens of great britain. the average colonist has less than 1% tax while in britain, it is up to 22%. after the french and indian war, something has to happen. you can't keep taxing the same people in great britain. a lot of the war is fought in north america, to they should pay for it. at the same time, the british are now the world power. when you have another one to compete with, it is one story but now, you have a vast amount of territory. you have native americans, french nationals living in these captioning these captured provinces. now you have smaller disturbances that show what britain now has to control. a lot of it is parliament. most of the people of great britain are not as represented in the parliament, so what is the difference? it is a difference of agreement, not understanding. some arbitrary power taken by the failure of the land bank and so forth that leads to this boiling point. >> we heard thi

it then the jamestown foundation representative talks about the andh of the leader of isis what is next for the terrorist organization. watch c-span washington journal live at 7:00 eastern on saturday morning worrying join the discussion. are joined by philip klein, executive editor with "the washington's amer -- " washington examiner," talking about his new book. let's start with the news of the day with the election. the vote yesterday in the u.s. house to proceed with the impeachment investigation. we have read the interview that your reporters had with the president late yesterday. what do you think republican strategy -- house republicans in particular -- there strategy will be? guest: i think it is clear that they will try to say, look, this is a very partisan driven .rocess democrats have been out to get trump from day one, and they are going to use whatever they can to get at him. first it was sort of the russia collusion thing, and when that failed, they moved on to ukraine . it is pretty obvious that they wanted to do that. some of our reporters visited with president trump in

i didn't want to write about the daniel boone in kentucky everything except jamestown was part of theist. by containing it, logically it looks like they claimed legal title and that also gave me the key with which side i was going to deal with. 1803 i decided to ended well before the president. to have a historical perspective you have to show how things turn out. the other thing is i end up at the beginning of the 20th century and a convenient momentt moment is when theodore roosevelt becomes president because he was the first western president. it was essential to the persona that you took on a and his connectionist with took the order to the people of america and that was the result of his connection to the west. the west of the mississippi river to the 18 or 19 hundreds. after that it becomes the rest of the country. new york in the 1850s doesn't give any useful guidance but houston and california in the 1950s are all sort of peace. in the career of theodore roosevelt you can see the west faded into memory and i called my book on roosevelt long ago the subtitle was the last romant

he was appalled at atrocities perpetrated in jamestown. he recounted with horror the vision of a young, pregnant american woman whose body had been mutilated and eviscerated, then hung on the door with her hanging from her hollow womb with a sign that no longerned rebel, shall you give birth." kinder hospitality and maurice could be foundes between generals and the cities like met in boston and newport. there were some american mores that french officers could not fathom. a number of officers marveled at the practice of bundling, which allowed young couples, engaged to be married or unengaged, to spend hours or even entire night alone together in a bedroom. there, they were to remain but could --osed clothed, but could kiss and "devote themselves to tender caresses, excepting those that only marriage has a right to permit." he concluded, is really only for americans. and prejudices that fueled anti-fraternization would not be the last thing character of social relations between french and american officers. when the war of independence dre

but still, or public member commands colonials, williamsburg , jamestown, and of course your town.e don't often think of civil war, williamsburg. and it is also forgotten over the period, because a few short weeks after the battle of williamsburg, we have this massive clash in richmond, and the newspapers were just getting ready to write about williamsburg, which, ok, we will write about another instead. the failures of scholarship over the last 150 years. it is only within the last two years that we have gotten decent books about the battle of williamsburg, the importance of the peninsula campaign. so why not write about williamsburg? you go backn through the books, some of the best books from our favorite historians, one of particular, have six pages about the battle of williamsburg. >> maybe it's not as interesting, maybe it would not sell, maybe the publisher said no. it's my goal here in the next three and a half hours of my lecture -- [laughter] realize this is the most important area. announcer: learn more about the battle of williamsburg today at 6:00 p.m. eastern on the ci

kevin is a san francisco native as he explained who currently works as the teams program manager jamestown community center. providing services and leadership develop to use in the mission. he has been a fierce advocate in the fight of displacement. particularly the latin next community in district nine. my district faces complex transportation issues addressing freeway interchanges that divide the district ensuring improved efficiency of bus service while protecting small businesses, balancing tensions between community needs and those of commuters passing through our two regional transit hubs. managing private and regulated right hail delivery bike and scooter delivery services. implementing every business strategy we can, as quickly as we can to put an end to death and injury in our streets. it is a lot. i am excited to move kevin onto the c.a.c. as our d9 representative. as an activist in the area, he brings a strong commitment to meaningful community engagement and has been a voice for transit justice and equitable transit policies. we have learned the absolute necessity of bringing t

but still our public memory , commands colonial williamsburg, jamestown. and it is also forgotten during that time because in a few short weeks after the battle of williamsburg, we have this massive clash around richmond. and newspapers that were just getting ready to write about williamsburg switch. ok, we will write about seven days instead. the failures of scholarship over the last 150 years. it is only within last few years have we gotten decent books about the battle of williamsburg, the importance of the peninsula campaign, so why not write about williamsburg? in fact, when you go back through the books, some of the best books from our favorite historians, one in particular, has six pages about the battle of williamsburg. six pages. that's it. maybe it is not a sexy topic. maybe it is not nearly as interesting. maybe it would not sell. maybe the publisher said no. so it is my goal in the next three and a half hours of my lecture. [laughter] mr. gruber: sorry. to make you realize that civil war williamsburg is the historic triangle's most important pe

that was one of the neighborhoods we took out and put under our jurisdiction jamestown, and there was transfer of land use that was enabled transferring some units back to candlestick from the shipyard and allowing some square footage of office development to float to candlestick. so now five point is looking to reimagine candlestick center as again as you may recall this had been a regional mall given the changing nature of retail, they are now looking to develop it rather as a mixed office and residential development, still retaining some of the office, i mean some of the retail and entertainment aspects to that plan. most note pliably you will see that -- most notably you'll see a significant office development, they are looking to develop 750,000 square foot as part of this proposal. very important to note, prop o from a couple years ago exempted development at candlestick and the shipyard from prop m. that means this office development can move forward without having to compete with our office allocation and affecting other office projects we are looking at. this project enables

that way is to do nothing like an entire history of the united states because everything except jamestowns part of the west. i needed a container and by containing it chronologically starting with the louisiana purchase, the united states leaving the title to land west of the mississippi river, that gave me the queue of what west i was dealing with. .. >> well, i decided to end it well before the present in part because, to get perspective, you've got to be far enough away from it to know how things turn out. but the other thing is i ended at the end of the 20th century, and a convenient moment is when theodore roosevelt becomes president in 1901. he was the first western president. he lived in the west only briefly, but the west was essential to the persona that theodore roosevelt took on. and his western connection was what changed the silk stocking new yorker into an individual of the ordinary people of america -- into an individual the ordinary people of america could identify with. and that was a result of his connection to west. so my story is the west of the mississippi river from

everything is old to us we don't realize how far apart but jamestown settled 180 years before the constitutional convention so talk about the founding of the colonies is not that useful we encourage everybody to read it we have two chapters on in the founding myth that was a justification severed the political connection with great britain but it didn't do two things with political philosophy. first that power comes from the people that is anti- biblical and second the declarations and we had a right to rebel which christianity prohibits. >> to be existed by god from what god has appointed when he cites that he proves the point that pushes christianity away from those totalitarian values that passage is clear go read it for yourself. so the christian idea that he has to connected to the founding to show where they are on that id is not enough to show they were all christian i would concede that for the sake of argument even though that's not true i love how those conversations even with this kentucky bourbon i will talk about that for hours but is not relevant because even if they were all jesus

then a look at the terrorist group isis after the death of ryan ofer with michael the jamestown foundation an update on the california wildfires with bob roper of the western fire chiefs association. host: good morning. it is saturday, november 2. we have more political programming for you on c-span this week. it started last night with a busy live action. lots of voices out there. 2020s your favorite presidential candidate and why? by phone it is (202) 748-8000 for democrats. for republicans it is (202) 748-8001. for independents, (202) 748-8002

we have people in -- starting in jamestown, looking for gold, looking to make money. putting up with slavery. but we had people in massachusetts who wanted to just have religious freedom and they had a whole different view of the world and of god and the bible. they were the start of the abolitionist movement. so i'm glad you brought us the pilgrim tradition tonight, i appreciate that, mr. thompson. ronald reagan, when he designated national bible week, he said when he was in office, when i took the oath of office i ii ested the be opened to corinthians 7:14. cathy mcmorris rodgers mentioned this earlier. it reeds if my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wick ways then i will hear from heaven and i will forgive their sins and i will heal their lands. this passage express mishopes for the future of this nation and the world. i would now like to yield time to the gentleman from kansas, mr. estes, and i yield such time as he may consume. mr. estes: thank you to my friend and fellow colleague from color

jamestown, north dakota, hi. caller: i have no problems with what trump did pardoning this fellow.ou can look back at history, world war ii, you had the battle lma, theulge and a massacre. you know what gi's would do with german prisoners, especially if they were ss. there was the baton death march where gi's in future battles, they catch japanese, they did not live very wrong. you can go find incidents in korea and vietnam. these jag officers, they are doing their job, but -- they should be in the front lines. i am a civilian. maybe the best example is you look at movies with the enemy at the gates with what russians did with their political prisoners, send them to the front lines, give them a rifle, 5 rounds and secret police are behind them with machine guns. host: what did you think of the removal of the navy secretary? caller: i got no problems with that. host: because? caller: if the navy secretary -- disagreements with trump forced to resign whether he was retired or resigned -- he should not be there. he has disagreements with trump, he should not be in that job. host: that
