my kid said [inaudible] then the subtitle engineering the future of civilization and the author, john browne, you are just introduced as board brown but we are not used to that title here in houston, lord. what is the title of that for you personally? >> as a practical matter i madeo permanent member of the second legislator of the house of the united kingdom. you have to ask why in history it is an appointed house and its history goes back to a very lon way. it was the house of the barons to make sure that the king kept in order. we don't do that anymore. the king, the queen, heads of states have no active power and neither does the house of lords. it's not -- it does do a very good job of promoting times, engineering and technology within the united kingdom. >> so, i would like to start from the very first page in here which is the dedication. it says to my father, who told me to get a real job. [laughter] what was your relationship with your father? >> i had a great relationship with my father who i wanted to do everything different from what he had done in his life. my family has a histo

he would meet with john brown. on some accounts, john brown tried to sweettalk frederick douglass into physically enjoy -- physically joining the attack on harpers ferry. he does not do it. about the year, the summer in particular, brown and his cohorts are bringing in large stick -- large shipments of goods on the cumberland valley railroad. he calls himself dr. isaac smith. he has been telling the good people of the cumberland valley and he is a minor --miner he has been looking for iron or lines and he has been bringing back supplies to the railroad on things like pigs and axis, when in reality they were muskets and pikes. they would use the cumberland valley railroad to go down to maryland, and he would set up his headquarters on the kennedy farm, and in the october of 1859, john brown and his men would raid. some of the raiders come back to the cumberland valley and tried to catch the railroad to get out of the valley. a number of them are going to be captured near the cumberland valley railroad station in sco

the caning of charles summer in in 1856 and john brown's raid of harper's ferry in october of 1859. both quickly reached a national audience, and accelerated ill feeling between the sections. as seward noticed in his speech, quote, these an tag nasic systems are continuously coming into closer contact and collision results. thus, sectionalism, the idea that each section north and south put forward its own interests in the nations before the nations, characterized the national political scene in the 1850s. in terms of demographics, the fact that population states far outstripped that of the slave holding states created a deepening set of -- i'm so excited by the map. you can understand why i love my maps. yeah. i have to say. >> i can't imagine a better map than that. >> it's hard to imagine. i just can't believe it. it's perfect. >> i think it's more than perfect. >> let's just say slave holders were in peril. they felt it. the admission of california, minnesota and oregon increased the number of u.s. senators from nonslave holding states with no prospect of new slave holding states

i hope we get to get uncover a little bit of a mindset of john brown. what's more important is having the audience asking questions and so so if amy wants to represent you think this is the moment to have the audience thinking about it. >> i have lots of questions about the audience. >> several people wanted to know if john brown can give us insight to us to texans on brexit. [laughter] >> is a bit easier tonight. because i believe we are going to have an election on 12 december. i think that's very important because managing the house of commons the first chamber the principal chamber of the elected representatives united kingdom without having majority without the government having majority is proving to be quite impossible. we are committed under a plebiscite referendum which doesn't sit very well with the way the systems work in the uk but the population voted to leave europe so that must be honored. and we will proceed to do that. unless the election miraculously produces a party in charge of want to do it. it seems the majority wanted to leave eur

they saw john brown as an equity is -- white northerners republicans and people in support of john brown and yes that that scare them and something got attention recently, did not get it for a long time. series of unexplained fires in texas in 1860 that spread eastward and these were attributed to people who were trying to create havoc and help some kind of racial uprising. they got a great deal of attention at the time. they had begun to get little scholarly attention. not much for a long time, but you put that together with john brown in these other imaginings of what a republican republican coming in might do and you have a very in volatile situation on just the question that you are talking about. if you want responses to how much this bothered people in the confederate context, look at responses in early 1863 to news of the final proclamation of emancipation, including robert e. lee's letter lee is he used to be seen as a moderate. his response to the proclamation is deeply angry and really striking. >> that carries over to reconstruction. >> yes it does. >> very brief. as somebody

john brown, you're familiar with john brown, radical abolitionists who leads the raid on harpers ferry. before he does that he writes a provisional constitution to replace the american constitution. the american constitution which he declared a pact with the devil and that was to replace it, specifically said it is based on the laws of god, human equality. the confederate states of america when they secede and come up with their country and constitution, want to guess what the first line of the constitution says? the laws are based on divine providence. you see this argument, the american nation is falling apart. the mormons exercise it on steroids and take it to the ninth degree but i want to emphasize that documented nauvoo in general capture a lot of these sentiments that tell a larger story about the messiness of democratic rule. i'm running out of time so i don't have much time to dig into one other issue that is significant, political and legal issues driving the external opposition, joseph smith's domestic and theological proposals cause internal division in nauvoo. most notable

one, you mentioned other black leaders, nat turner and john brown, but you forgot to mention the ladies. i mean come at you don't mention sojourner truth. seems there are is a few people, a lot of these people have remained nameless throughout history, but it might have been a nice link. ,nyway, the second thing is there has recently been a book published about john adams, and about his -- as a lawyer representing the british soldiers and winning for them. ihaven't read it, because have it on order from my library, but i thought, one should read your book and that book, but they might make an interesting contrast, the economy. would you suggest or say that might be a good idea? professor kachun: i think that everyone should buy my book.

played by raymond massey who i guess traded in his lincoln outfit for a john brown costume. like santa fe trail "virginia city" also celebrates the coming together of white soldiers across sectional lines in a common cause. in this case it was union and confederate soldiers who united in the west, late in the war, in order to fight some gold bandits. it is really not -- the details should not be explored too deeply here. "casablanca" is also in its own way a film about reconciliation although not about unifying nazis and allies. it is, however, about bringing together the indifferent and skeptical rick blaine played by humphrey bogart and the committed partisan played by paul onride, a unity achieved when rick discards his cynicism and recognizes the need to take a stand against nazi oppression. before this happens, though, there is a suggestion of the civil war's relevance to current events. rick at last reunited with ilse, i think r ingrid bergman reminds her of the last time they saw each other in paris. i remember every detail, he says. the germans wore gray. you wore bl

john brown it's very good to have you.hat do you think of this and this wait that a lot of people have had to think when does the oil turn around? obviously the last few days trading oil kale back from these incredible lows but it is still pretty low in the scheme of things. where do you see it going? how do you see this all sorting out? well of course, we had too much supply of oil before coronavirus hit us, so we have a lot of supply, we have very weak demand , demand is down probably 30% on average, so the cuts being offered won't actually cut it, and oil is being stored actually in storage. it reminds me very much of what happened a long time ago in the 85-86 period, whereas the reverse happened, people have supply, and eventually, it can't and they opened it up and prices collapsed and they stayed low for 17 years, so i think here, we're going to see lower for longer and very volatile too the reason i say that is it's easy to have an over supply and restoring demand to the right level is going to take a lot of time, a

joining forces of a fanatical john brown played by raymen massy. they also celebrate the coming together of white soldiers across sectional lines in a common cause. in this case it was union and confederate causes. it is also a film about reconciliation. it is about however bringing together the indifferent and skeptical rick blaine and victor laslow. a unity that is achieved when rick discards his cynicism and recognizes a chance to take a stand against nazi -- they remind her about the last time they saw each other. i remember every detail, he says, the germans wore gray, you wore blue. okay, it tells us who is directing freedom and who is not. but the central theme was not a simple divide between freedom and slavery and this evolution from indifference to commitment. and in this case it is the process by which rick dedicates himself to the antimf nazi cause. how it became necessary to break with the isolationism of the interwar period and accept the need again to fight this new war. there is a new over lay that the new fight is about principals,

to be a john brown mist in the 1850s. it's not only the secret six to become famous.radical meant to lean into that idea. the nation is taking down the war road to be radical republican to be in favor of hard work to be to demand so much of the nation. so willing to confront slavery and terminate it. so in the words of raphael emerson who was a radical good doctor but bad is sometimes better. in the agony of the nation of the civil war was the only way we could address these fundamental issues.>> to view the rest of this talk visit our website booktv.org type leanna keith or the title to her for her book into the search box at the top of the page. >> tonight at 11:00 p.m. eastern watch authors sonja shaw ali khan and jeremy brown discussing pandemics. >> what happens now would we have outbreaks of contagious disease, we don't look for the social political roots, we wait for those epidemics to a rep, people get sick and then we hope we can throw sufficient vaccines and drugs added to make it go away. >> it should not be surprising that when i talk about zika and bulloc

i should mention may 19th had front groups, 700 people involved, things like john brown anti-clan committee which was an early version of antifa. they had other front groups involved in fundraising for african independence movements and so on but people at the core knew each other. they were one of the guys in the group. a medical doctor named alan bergman had been involved in the weather underground. he knew judy clark and laura whitehorn from stf days. everybody knew everybody else. that was the extent that there was recruiting going on among people who were known and trusted with ties of affectional kinship if that answers your question. >> i must have been out of touch. did the bomb go off in the us capital, where was it? >> it went off on the second floor. it went off about 11:30 at night. the senate was not in session but it could have been. interestingly it created $1 million worth of damage, a huge crater in the wall. this is one of the interesting ironies, interesting only to historians but it managed to shred the portrait of john c calhoun, the notorious theoretician of slavery an

david: that was former bp had lord john browne.he connection reestablished with chuck grassley of ohio. thank you for your patience. was we were talking about how things are going in iowa, specifically with small businesses, specifically small businesses and farmers. what is your situation right now? sen. grassley: first of all, $3 billion came to how many thousands of small businesses? i'm not sure i can tell you. there is still a lot of demand for it in iowa. probably more than metropolitan areas, small businesses is the backbone of our economy. is really soft spots in iowa agriculture. commodity prices globally are way down. greens-- grains are historically low when you consider an inflation factor. we have some viruses in our meatpacking plants and they are not operating at 100% efficiency. there is a very sophisticated, e that you go through ig being born, five months later, slaughtering and what do you do when you have thousands of pigs that cannot be slaughtered because the packing plants are not operating at capacity. it is

john brown. they lead the raid. he writes a provisional constitution to replace constitution to replace the american constitution. he declared a path with the devil. they said that it is based on the laws of god. the confederate states of america. and created their own country. and write their own constitution. do you want to guess what the first line said these lines are based on divine providence. you see this argument spread. they take that sentiment and exercise it on steroids. i want to emphasize that that document capture a lot of these broader sentiments that tell a much larger story. i don't have much time to dig into one other issue that is significant here. in the political and legal issues is what is driving the external opposition. it is a new domestic arrangement. and the theological proposals that caused internal division. cause internal division. among those perhaps most noticeable is the proposal of polygamy. the chance for men to be sealed to multiple women. while it is impossible to identify. of co

heaven, certainly who was raised by a white man or someone who thinks of figures like for example, john brown or howard or bob who i think are some of the most precious people in the world, it's important to me to not have a formulation that removes them from my sense of trouble i am engaged in. >> one more question before we move on to some of your other books. mothering black boys in america is a special calling. >> yes. a sentence my mother said to me and i think about it in a number of different ways. one, of course is also rests. people talk about and secondly. it's difficult and maybe not necessarily helpful about the challenges that black boys face in this world, whether it's mass incarceration, inequality and schooling or high school graduation rates or unemployment, all of those things. thing about it differently, i think about it all that's true but i think about the simultaneous wanting to raise my children identify as black boys that in a way that doesn't limit their imagination, their sense of possibility, it allows them to understand the facts of racial equality, that keeps them

john brown. if any of you are familiar before he has the raid on harper's ferry he writes the constitution to replace the american constitution. he declared it a path to the compact with the devil and the regional constitution that was to replace it. it's the first line of the constitution that says these are based on the divine providence. you see this argument especially in the groups that believe that the american nation is falling apart. of course they take the sentiment and exercise it and take it to the ninth degree. but i want to emphasize that document they capture a lot of the broad sentiment but tell a larger story in the democratic who. i'm running out of time i don't have much time to dig into one issue that is significant here. if this is what is driving the external opposition it is the new domestic arrangement and the theological proposals that cause internal division. it is the proposal while it is impossible to identify the origins i try to argue that it is located in the spring
