irwin redletter.george floyd's death and the protests around that and the fact that the white house stopped delivering those daily briefings, it seems to have come off the front burner, but in fact we are seeing several states, in texas, for instance, dr. fauci was warning 2,100 people in the state were hospitalized as of friday, intensive care units are running at 88% capacity in the houston area. this continues to be a matter of crisis proportions. >> there's no question about it, ali. so we have it's not only texas but it arkansas, it's arizona, it's many other states. and i think we have what has occurred to me, ali, is we have this crisis, this confusion of the disease itself. it's nowhere near the end of even this first wave and we're going to get more waves after this, it's basically inevitable. but the problem is for people is, number one, we opened businesses and opened the scene far too early in my opinion. we put out a report warning without having enough testing done in local areas restaur

irwin redletter, an msnbc political analyst. this president and a number of republicans campaigned on the idea that they would repeal and replace obamacare. there was never any replace. there still isn't. the federal government is now party to a lawsuit against obamacare, which is very, very unusual for the government to join a lawsuit against its own policy. so the idea that the president's got something better up his sleeve than obamacare a little hard to swallow. >> yeah. not only, ali, have we not seen a plan, there's been no evidence of even discussion of an alternate plan. he's not going to be able to pull this out of his hat a week before the election. this requires a tremendous number of work, number one, and, number two, we have a very, very good plan in place that could be expanded, could, improved and that's what biden's been proposes. but the idea of dismantling our one existing safety net for americans at this moment of crisis with the pandemic is beyonds not going to happen. we're hoping this is just another bluste

and we are thankful to professor irwin for that. he's as i mentioned his red coat images was also influential in our development of the six admission. originally what became the cost of revolution the life and death of an irish soldier was to be a portrait displayed based on professor urwin's redcoat images. and we went down the steep rabbit hole with richard st. george, which professor urwin was very helpful with as well. today he will be talking about his topic from parade grounds to battlefields, how the british army adapted to war in north america 1775 to 1783. and it captures i think one of the great messages of his work on that army which is that the public imagery of red coats as these often inept sort of dandy, often evil monsters is woefully inaccurate, and so instructs me that you are to forget everything you ever learn from the patriot and muggy person. and these are not figments of the imagination, the red coats he will present.

images, who among these enslaved people might have had a red coat, and there is a book that professor irwin has been working closely with, a manuscript, from 1783, called the book of negroes which was compiled to list the former enslaved people who are under the protection of the british army in new york in 1783, and based on his finings in that book, he suggested a young 15-year-old man named london pleasants who had joined benedict arnold's british american legion in virginia and served as a trumpeter which would have been a uniformed and armed rank. so we were able to capture the immediate image in the galleries of a formally enslaved person who has made a choice with great personal and political implications, by presenting our version of london pleasant's, and we are thankful to professor urwin for that. his, as i mentioned, his red coat images were also influential in the development of this exhibition. originally what became cost of revolution, the life and death of an irish soldier, was to be a portrait display, based on professor urwin's red coat images. and we went down this deep r
