alice paul says, equal rights amendment and that is it. so they start off, they come back together, and then they separate again. >> i am wondering if there was a meaningful relationship between [indiscernible] and being a secularist -- [indiscernible] ms. unger: so what kind of a relationship did belle la follette have with elizabeth cady stanton. i cannot trace any real relationship. she cannot say anything about the feminist bible that i ever saw. i know that belle la follette got very impatient with women like elizabeth caddy stanton who were willing to throw other races under the bus to get women's rights. patience forlittle that. she talks about other women's leaders, but nothing about stanton in particular. a couple of them speaking in wisconsin on tours and so forth. she was aware of them, and so did not tendeally to spend a lot of time focusing on the past. she was dedicated on getting things done today. >> i am just discovering and enjoying learning about mother jones. date belle la follette know or appreciate? i know the style i

it was originally introduced in 1923 by alice paul. people might know her from the national woman's party, a radical suffrage group. during the 1910's especially, she brought it forth to greater stabilize political equality between men and women. for the 1920's, it was something unfathomable to most people. it was brought up again between the 1920's and 1970's, but never really got much credit. it did not go farther than any congressional committees. to a lot ofthanks work in the house and senate, it got brought up for ratification in 1972 to be sent to the states, yes or no, do we want this added to the u.s. constitution? >> how have you focused your research? griffis: my research looks at broadly defined conservative women. some such as phyllis schlafly were against the era. but other women we would consider conservative supported it. a kind of receptors arguments about if the era were to come forward again, and if the era were to go to the states for ratification again, where can we look to other than liberals and feminists and grou

it took a proud daughter in new jersey, alice paul years of , organizing marches and hunger strikes and protests and drafting hundreds of pieces of legislation and working with congressional leaders before she and other suffragists helped win women the right to vote. [applause] each stage along the way required compromise. sometimes you took half a loaf. it you forged allies. sometimes you lost on an issue and came back to fight another day. that is how democracy works. you have got to be committed to participating not just to get immediate gratification, you have to be a citizen full-time, all the time. and it participation means voting, and means compromise and organizing and advocacy it also , means listening to those who do not agree with you. i know a couple of years ago, folks on this campus got upset that condoleezza rice was supposed to speak at commencement. i don't think it's a secret that i disagree with dr. rice and many policies from that administration. but the notion that this community, or country would not be served by hearing her or shutting out what she had to say, i

the names of those leadership, alice paul, inez mulholland, we don't know them. they were the martin luther king and the john lewis of that movement. the 20th century was a time of continued democratic expansion. the great instance when the courts finally got involved and set out the standards you needed one person one vote, all culminating in the 1960s in the great crimes of the civil rights movement, especially in 1965 voting rights act. that store you all know. that's been told so many times and especially we had a recent anniversary. you've seen in movies, in the recent movie soma. -- selma. the story is more complex and interesting than you might imagine. dr. martin luther king proclaimed to a mass meeting in selma and genuine of that year 1965, we will bring a voting bill into being on the streets of selma. it was the pressure of those courageous activists willing to risk their lives and their safety the fourth national government to act. national it was this incredibly elaborate dance between these two visually southern leaders, king and johnson. i write a

he needs to make the case to people like myself, people like paul ryan, people like alice's former candidate, ted cruz, why they, as conservatives, should support donald trump for president. beyond just i'm not hillary clinton. there has to be more to their argument than that. >> and what we've seen already with the super pacs being so negative to the women's issue, i think he needs to get past that, not let that get him too rattled. i do think it's important, i agree with both of them, he has to bring the republican party together, ask that includes establishment republicans, but conservatives. >> he doesn't think this is on him. he thinks the party needs to reconcile, hey, i rowon, you goa come to me. >> if you are the nominee of the party, you need to show your ability to bring about consensus and it shouldn't be easier than within your own party. that's incumbent on him to bring the party together and starts with convincing conservatives that he'll carry the conservative message and who he picks as a vp will be very telling. >> he deserves credit for getting this far, but the goal isn't

presence of several renowned authors, one of them alice phlegm, whose latest book is a biography of martin luther king jr., "a dream of hope." the naval historian paul silverstone is here tonight. and thomas fleming, his new book is called the intimate lives of the founding fathers. i wonder what that is about. [laughter] mr. unger: i am honored by having you all here because i know that some of you sacrificed the $15,000 a plate fundraiser for president obama tonight. i can only offer you food for thought, but the price is right. i am sure you have all seen the famous painting of george washington crossing the delaware. you probably remember there is a soldier standing behind him with the american flag in his arms. that soldier, the officer, is ames monroe. and there were two symbolic reasons that the artist, john trumbull placed monroe and washington as one of the only two important figures in the painting. one of the only two figures standing in the boat. monroe did not actually cross the delaware in the same boat as washington, but trumbull put him there to show him as a great hero of the battle of trenton under washington's leadership. he also

paul wiedefeld sat down with all 650 station managers. >> they know where we are coming from and i've laid out everything specifically. if they can manage to that leve about what he called the alice rule. on any part ofs the system where you would not put your own family. alison: switching gears to rock the red. in aapitals were down 3-0 win or go home game, and then a heart pounding game because they tied it. now we are in overtime. tom roussey has been out and about with all of the excitement tonight. all right, we cannot take it anymore. tom: it is nailbiting time. the folks here at the green turtle in chinatown are watching nervously in overtime. we have already had a miracle comeback area oh, man, they'll most scored. the comeback is not complete. here is video that we took just after the capitals scored the third goal to tie the game. rocking. as we went into overtime, fans were nervous. >> my friends gave up. my friend sent me a text and said we are down 3-0. i said, don't give up. >> a lot of people left the game and are watching with us. we stayed on and here we are. up. these fans did not give they still have not. they are very nervous. a any moment this could be very h
