then another phase of the change of our historical relationship with the native americans and that is terminate the indian tribes. so in a period of 150 years, this is what we've had to do in dealing with native american communities. so now the latest phase is to recognize the indians and indians, and i can't think of a -- of a tribe that has had to endure this gruesome and awful experience over 100 years now. the largest indian tribe east of the mississippi river, recognized by the state of north carolina, 50,000 lumpy indians are not federally recognized by the government because of bigotry, racism and all the problems that these people have had to endure, and by the way, they are still there in north carolina, over 50,000 lumby indians are not recognized because the recognition process, in my humble opinion, mr. chairman, is broken. i think we all understand historically the current system or the process of recognizing native american tribes was never done by any statutory enactment of the congress. it was done administratively by the bureaucrats. with all due respect, i've got nothing against the bure

american society and westward expansion and westward policy. what got me interested in william henry harrison was i started being interested in the shawnee war chief this ended up leaving the confederation of indians fighting against united states and the war of 1812. he became one of these readily made heroes, oddly inc. in the pantheon of american heroes. the main way to think he is incredibly hon.. he sticks by his guns. he is very principled. he fights for what he believes in. he was one of the few native americans who objected to the torture and killing of prisoners in a time of war. that was seen as very honorable. reading about tecumseh in graduate school there have already been fantastic work sir, there wasn't a lot left on the phone. harris and hadn't received a major biographical treatment sins world war ii. the odd netherworld, naturally assumed the most interesting part of his life. such a short time. people know about millard fillmore's presidency than they do harrison. that is the rub. not sure it had to end up that way. the campaign for the presidency, campaign literature and unbiased biographies so there is no reason he shouldn't have been more famous. also too people coming up on

the problem is she says now that, you know, she is still saying that she has american indian heritage, but there's no proof that that is true. so on two counts she may not have told the truth to begin with, and the secondly she may not have told the truth about that. >> in the beginning i was very sympathetic to her because families tell all stories about what fought at what battles and you grow up believing it. but it's just gotten way too weird. and the 1/32 does not seem to be a profoundly amount of -- i'm 50% irish so i wear green on st. patrick's day. if i were 1/32, i don't think i would wear green on st. patrick's day. >> jesus, greta, knowing you were irish, there's a tie. >> but amazing, 1/32. >> i don't get it. because it's such a small amount of native-american blood if there is any native-american blood it seems not worth talking about as you suggest. if she wasn't trying to gain some advantage from it, why would she say she's proud of it? why would she make a big deal out of the 1/32. >> i would say get out front and tell it what it is and not let it drag on. that's what

what they do to food we did to the american indians. these letters are a true revelation. and what they reveal more than anything was that ronald reagan knew the value to a politician of never letting people never know quite how clever you are. >> thanks. [applause] >> in 1981 when ronald reagan had assumed the presidency, a woman wrote to him and she had a lot of discipline. she complained about selling aircraft to the saudi. she complained about budgets. she complained about taxes. she complained about replacing china in the white house. and she said, i want to hear from president reagan personally. i demand to be heard. and this letter got to him because the staff selected, at his request, a sample of letters that he got every few weeks. and he answered her. and he said,s you specified that you wanted to hear from me personally, so here i am. and i think that's what most impresses me about this book. what i like the best about sit that i'm reading ronald reagan and what he said to a wide variety of correspondence without filters or interpretation. this is ronald reagan

state that was party to the most significant supreme court cases, involving the removal of the american indians. i grew up on land that was once cherokee. i am always careful -- i went through some of the this one is writing about franklin roosevelt and winston churchill, about their reaction to the holocaust. it is tempting and wrong to be self-righteous and in retrospect. it was used to be said that self-righteousness was easy and cheap. the test, though, had to be how loud were the voices in real-time that the men and women who were architects and implicit -- complicit, rather, in a given course of action. was there a counter case? answer is yes. a man named jeremiah evers was the central player. he was the william lloyd garrison of indian removal. he wrote an essay called the william penn essays, that made a moral case against removal. the south was underwhelmed by that case. as happened a little bit later in abolition, the southerners were able to say, well, it is quite easy for people from new england who have already driven off others to lecture to us. it seems, however, as the second we

from 1924 the officials of the commonwealth of virginia did not allow the native american tribes to a list indian or native americans or other affiliations on their birth records. this act served as the official for five decades remaining until 1967. suddenly there was one exception to this rule. the so-called first families of virginia coming and i find a lot of natives have been there for 10,000 years but many first families and va claim to be the descendants of pocahontas. this contained a pocahontas exception allowed the land of white families in virginia to be listed as white despite the drop rule while they were still planning to be descendants of pocahontas. the virginia bureau of statistics went so far to retroactively change the records of many of our ancestors so that only white or colored were listed. as part of the act of 1944 the united states government officials contacted the commonwealth of virginia regarding its indian population. the state registrar also in virginia despite the response federal government officials visited the tribes conducted and photographed people and things

john gadsby himself didn't hire free african-americans at the indian queen which was regarded as one of the plushest hotels in baltimore. the club-like hotel had a reading room as well as baths for customers. it was unusual for the large number of enslaved people. however, given the sumptuous dinners and lavish setting he offered his clientele, he needed a large domestic force. the census records list him as having 45 enslaved people in 1810. the advertisements tell the story again of any involvement of the slave trade. during the years 1810 to 1818 he asked for 32 to 36 people to work in his hotel. he notes he prefers to purchase rather than hire enslaved people. some of the advertisements specifically request people from the country as opposed to urban slaves which he considered spoiled and prone to running away. however, it could have been due to the fact that an enslaved person from the country may have had fewer connections and would have been easier to sell. the runaway ads also demonstrate gadsby bought and sold people. for instance, we know from a jail ad, basically an ad tha

jefferson's hammer," talks about the origins of american indian policy. >> a very interesting charactern that he has all these really ambitious goals, but he also hates conflict x. be at the same time he likes technology, right? so when i was trying to come up with titles n many ways william henry harrison becomes sort of the perfect tool for jefferson to wield when it comes to indian policy out on the frontier because, basically, harrison's willing to do the dirty work that is going to get jefferson what he wants; lots of indian land purchased very quickly and cheaply. harrison, i think he's probably more interesting for the fact that he's so typical rather than urinal. unusual. he's the son of, you know, sort of grand virginia family. his father had signed the declaration of independence, and so he has this sort of leadership sort of instilled in him, and yet at the same time like a lot of those big virginia planter family, they've sort of hit hard times after the american revolution. and so harrison, basically, you know, he has, you know, the characterization of being the sort of big

american society particularly our western expansion in western policy. i think what got me interested in william henry harrison is i started in tecumseh and the shawnee war chief who is a pleading this confederation of indian fighting against the united states in the war of 1812 and tecumseh is one of these readily made, he rose and he actually gets oddly incorporated in the pantheon of american heroes because in many ways to our way of thinking he's is case is so incredibly honorable. he sticks by his guns and he is very principled. he fights for what he believes in. he was actually one of the few native americans who strongly objected to the torture and killing of prisoners in a time of war. that was also seen as very honorable. in high school in college reading about tecumseh but when it came time to graduate school baradar de been really fantastic

the native americans, the indian tribes were scattered around illinois. this is part of what had been the larger northwest territories, and maybe we should set the context as well, the northwest territories, how they fit into american history. >> well, the northwest territory was the land northwest of the ohio river. it had been claimed by virginia by right of conquest during the revolution and, of course, george rogers clark was the key figure there. at the end of the revolution, the date that eludes me, sometimes 1780s, virginia seceded a territory, it might've in 1786 or 787 to the united states. and ceded all the land northwest of the ohio river to the united states. that include those which now ohio, indiana, illinois, wisconsin, what am i forgetting? michigan and part of minnesota for all of which were claimed by virginia at that point. it's why, for instance, kentucky claims the ohio river and its own property that the borders on the north bank because what was ceded by virginia was the land northwest of the river. so congress organized this in 1787
