lee, you got a unique case to continue to honor and preserve his name or do we still want to keep bedford forrest on you know installation of a military base or, a statue and well, i think that brings up a good point that the tendency in years has been to paint all confederate with a broad brush and to condemn them all and they've all been demonized. i think it's interesting that, after the war, the veterans himself, the north and south, did a much better job of reconciling that of us today. 160 years later, that we seem to be, you know really old wounds that should have a long time ago. but definitely you as as the saying goes are good and bad people on both sides. you know, neither side have a monopoly on virtue. you know, one side likes to claim the monopoly on virtue, but, you know, the fact of the matter is that there were good people and and people who had noble motivations, you know, for fighting to defending their homeland and so i think they need to be everyone needs to be judged individually and not as a part of a group. you know, rodney king, you spoke on campus a couple of yea

and i also grew in the cornerstone baptist church, which was a very active black baptist church in bedford-stuyvesant. and it turns out that during my first 12 years of living in crown heights and going to the cornerstone baptist church, my congressperson was the late, great shirley and. and so politics in different. public service was around us. but a lot of it really was just challenging times a challenging community and people banding together and my dad who was actively involved in the block association at that time and sort of seeing public engagement through the of my mom and my dad. in your me if this isn't correct but in your first race you, as i understand it, very close to defeating an incumbent and powers that be weren't so happy that that you challenged this incumbent. so talk about what they did and and how responded to did their redistricting. yeah. ran for a seat in new york state assembly. that was the office that i ever for i ran against a 20 year incumbent at the time who was backed by the brooklyn democratic machine. the albany political establishment. i was just a young lawyer at

the book i'm working on right now is about a whale ship that left in 1832 from new bedford. they're about four or five people on board out of 22 that i have. interesting biographical information about, including the key characters. and i tell their story however the rest of them i know their height, their age, skin color. maybe if they were on another whaling ship but i don't know a lot about what happened before they got on that whale ship. and to be honest, if i did know, it maybe wouldn't be that interesting. and 11 of them died right away anyway. so they weren't major parts of the story. so i don't know if that's a satisfying answer, but my theory is that if you too many characters in a in a unified story that's of a short duration and if you give too many details about too many of them readers tend to get confused. this this story has a lot of twists and turns already. and i think minimizing the number of main characters you have to pay to made it easier to follow. follow them. also this book is so different from any other book i've written because all my books have lik
