doctor skinner, let's move to you. let's have you answer that question. >> i do believe that racism is a national security problem and i have seen it as an academic and as someone who is been a presidential campaign for the national security side and more recently from the standpoint of u.s. diplomacy at the state department. the common thread that i see in all of these is that when you do not have people of color at the table you can't represent america very well. for whatever reason, we are in a multigenerational time in which there are just not enough african-americans, hispanics and asians at the court aspect of foreign policy. let me be a bit more specific. i think in order to represent the best of the united states, the world's most fully functioning multiethnic democracy, you have to have people of color in every level of government. let me be a bit more specific. at the state department, for example, they are needed in greater numbers in the regional and functional bureau and they should always be at the table.

i'm standing in the village on rue miss skinner. the reason it's named skinner is she was a wealthy socialite from massachusetts who took to heart this village that had been destroyed by the germans. the germans had occupied it for four years since 1914, and it was liberated by the american 26th division. the 26th division was made up of national guard units from new england including massachusetts where bell grew up. she was a graduate of astor college, in fact, the class president. her family owned a textile company with their name of skinner. she had a passion for france. she had a passion for france. she came here before the war, during the war, and back in 1919. that's when she discovered this village and that it was destroyed. she decided she needed to help out. she raised money, gave some of her own money, including clothes to the citizens who had to move back after the war in decimated conditions. she helped rebuild the village including the school i'm standing in front of now, plus she set up a wash basin in town so the cit

it goes back to the will and james skinner's it lists james skinner and some of his siblings as well as his mother in the yellow box. he states that in his--. these are some of the ways i operated as i wrote this book. using these interesting and seemingly disconnected fragments of information that were provided in those ads. i was able to dig a little deeper and find all of these other archival documents that were out there. legal documents, obituaries, newspapers they were advertised and, as well as civil war era financial documents. what i think is interesting is it was not just people we are talking about. there was a host of other individuals who were slave owners. the federal government did in fact document white women as slaveowners in the census. in 1840, the business looks very different. the census looks very much let -- very much like a patriarchal household that we envision in the 19th century. it documented and identified by name the male head of household. the female head of household might be a widow. all the other inhabitants in that household, they would simply be ch

so james skinner was a reverend who lives in yazoo county, mississippi. on november 20, 1879, he placed this lost friends at in the southwestern christian advocate because he was looking for his brother, edward. the last time john had seen edward was on october 12, 1860, in georgetown. and in the district of columbia, right where we are today. not long after the brothers crossed paths that day, john and his family were forced to leave edward behind, when their owner did what historians and individuals at the time referred to as being refugeed. his owner refugeed then to mississippi and compelled them to leave this trick and leave edward behind. one year after john placed his first lost friends advertisement, he still had not found edward. so he placed another. his time he offered more detail. each of these advertisements may clear. angelica chu, he spells her name differently but nevertheless identifies as a woman who owned him and his family and who orchestrated the separation via that process of refugeeing, and that she was the reason that he had this f

and that's really interesting to me because it is a kind of return to skinner. i think you wouldn't have heard that in the eighty's or ninety's that would have even been creeping. you to think about someone designing your behavior, but now it's become accepted. the you can be a behavior designer. and behavior design was one part of what as they used to do in a previous life. however, he is now one of a growing number of industry insiders who are taking a more critical stance to silicon, just talking to him. let me wonder, does he regret his pot? and want to be like humble about it. if i had invented it, it would have been invented. i just haven't been the right place at the right time to think about the right kind of thing. but yes, i do regret it, but i do think it talks to like the naive 80 of being like, oh here's just a cool feature and making it. and even if it's great for the user without thinking about the effects, it'll happen if you can scale it up to 100000000 people or 1000000000 people where this little thing that i went around to like twitter and go
