jefferson davis, the man, is a contradiction. jefferson davis, in his early life, was a graduate of the united states military academy. he served in the frontier with the united states army. he was secretary of war under president pierce. he served in the united states congress, and he also served in the united states senate. and he and his wife were the hosts during james buchanan's administration in washington, d.c. when the south left and formed their own government, they invited jefferson davis to become its first and only president. jefferson davis would accept that invitation and become the president of the confederate states of america. we are standing in the cell where jefferson davis was held at the conclusion of the american civil war. in 1856, jefferson davis received word from general robert e. lee, commander of the army of northern virginia, that they could no longer hold the army back from richmond. with that news, jefferson davis adjourned his cabinet and sent his family on the road for their protection. jefferson

davis: exactly. right now this is a coalition, basically, of people who don't like donald trump, and they need to hold that together because these groups will fight with each other, should they be successful in winning the presidency. they are putting different spins on it. as to the cognizance of the former vice president, i would agree he is a very decent man. i served in the house when he was in the senate. there is nothing wrong with him. he is a very decent man. the only person that can solve the cognizance problem is him. he is on the campaign trail. how does he do in his speeches, press conferences? he is the only one who can put that to rest. i think that is going to continue to be something republicans use against him. as to whether he moves left or not, he picked kamala harris, who i guess has the second most liberal voting record in the u.s. senate, has his -- as his running mate. that should be some indication of where he wants to go. i think the democratic party is gradually moving left.

-- former congressman davis? >> it is not illegal.t is on precedent giving it -- unprecedented giving a speech from the white house. we have seen more more presidents being broken -- we saw the first president in 2008 where you had it presidential candidate not taking federal matching funds. after pledging he would do that. we saw his speech in denver outside the stadium. certainly i think spoke to the enthusiasm behind him. we are getting new rules every day, and the american people have to be the final judges if someone is basically abusing the accouterments of office or not. in, despite what i've heard the press, there is nothing illegal about it. the one thing can say about donald trump is she is a great showman. that is to say everything he has done has been put on a very good show, and i think this convention is going to be a reflection of him and the american people will have to decide if he has overstepped or not. first, former u.n. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley in which she framed the argument in terms of forei

so you are standing there going, but i'm viola davis, i'm good.osite her and you are thinking, my god, it's meryl streep, my god, it's meryl streep. cut, cut. so much of what we do in movies and tv, sex appeal, how cute you are, do we like you, what's your rating? i'm not so good at that. now i have to tell you, there's a cap on awards. there's a cap on cuteness and being on people's most beautiful list. >> what do you mean? >> there's a cap to greatness. the elixir is living a life that's bigger than you. that's what it is. if you are not doing that, then you are not doing anything. nothing. i always say the three most important words that happens, especially after you have a trophy in your hand, the three most important words are, and now what. denzel has the best quotes. i don't mean to out him. he said there's no u-haul in the back of a hearse. you can't take it with you. >> you say winning an oscar isn't the end of the world and what's next. but to have oscar winner in front of your name every time someone says it, it does mean something. >>

i want to thank director davis for that. secondly, we did an early report in march with the comptrollers office and looked at racial breakdowns by department through that workforce report. it confirmed some of our suspicions in regard to equity in our departments where certain -- which leads to disparities in pay, benefits and access to management positions. we are going to be taking a targeted approach with the department of human resources who has committed to identifying some key areas that impact workforce diversity and some of the focus areas that we'll be doing this year is looking at qualifications and looking at how we create our job qualifications. not allowing persons of colour foot in the door. we're going to be looking at recruitment and hiring. that's been a huge issue. if issues don't reach the standard for e.e.o. complaint, workers are still being -- or having issues, not having support. how can we find a way to mediate or find justice for our folks in the city workforce. it's been a parallel track for office

it's primarily because they are relying on verena davis's memoir. she left an account in her memoir of jefferson davis, and she talked about how he received word in his office that there was a serious disturbance, that the mayor was there, that the governor was there. that state forces had been called out. so, he hurried down to main street. and she paints this wonderful picture of jefferson davis hopping up on an overturned gray and addressing the crowd. and he says to them, you say you are hungry and have no money. here is all i have. it is not much, but take it. and with that, he emptied his pockets of the change, threw them into the crowd, took out his watch, and said, we have no desire to injure anyone, but this lawlessness must stop. you five minutes to disperse. otherwise you will be fired , upon. that is the account in history, but there is debate about that. most of the accounts mentioned it was the public guard that was called out. this was a guard formed by james monroe after the planned revolt in 1800. verena says the guard that appeared

miles davis and lena horne.t is one the things that makes it so interesting it is about sugar ray robinson but is also about a. an eight political era. why did you feel like it was important to make miles davis and lena horne such a part of the story? >> for several reasons. because when he started doing the book i come across is interconnecting people in sugar raise life. that miles davis first came to new york city, and got hooked on drugs, he wanted to get off the drugs and find someone and help him physically trained. and they became friends up until sugar raise a death. lena horne, would always be at joe louis' training camp. and that is where she met sugar rate robinson. langston hughes, the poet, lived right down the street from sugar raise nightclub. and langston hughes in the 50s started writing with hope in mind that sugar ray would be able to take a part in some of those plays. therefore it's with those three people there were steady customers of sugary robinson's nightclub. i just thought it was fasc

during the war he is lending both davis brothers money.e eventually buys the plantation outright for her, i think it was 8 million in current dollars, in cash, and then after, during reconstruction he loses possession of it, a challenge from the very large davis clan. emus the town north. but this idea, davis was fascinating to me because, what a remarkable man to thrive under these conditions, the relationships that he has with these people, the people being the davises, is nearly equal. he is still a slave but he is respected. jefferson davis tried to have a patent issued from one of montgomery inventions. you say oh, this is exceptionalism. this is something that we know whereby, if this is something one sees about the history of race. i talk about that as a way of showing, you can have completely racial state, and davis was utopian. he considered himself a benevolent master. he considered himself an enlightened mississippian for his day and for his place and time. arguably he was as we consider ourselves enlightened, what it means to b

we have rick davis in hong kong and jean davis with the in new york.k, i don't want to call you old art, but there is a difference between the democrats and republicans' conventions. last week, we saw a lot of people who served as president or ran for president, and this week we are not seeing anybody who has been around that long. is this really donald trump's convention? rick: donald trump continues to play the role of outsider. you don't see official washington during this convention. the one representative today from the u.s. senate, rand paul, is considered an outcast of republicans in the senate. donald trump sticks to the script. he came fighting washington institutions and the people who are in it and he continues to import his supporters to show that he continues that by. it is nothing unusual but it is unusual for a republican convention to have so little senior leadership. --id: janene is a win, it is his win, but if he doesn't win, it is all his fault. e: absolutely. and you can't govern in the united states by yourself. if he does win, he

but when alfonso davis sweeps in the low cross he still gets on me and it is mostly the doorstep thank goodness leaguers go grab a secret to him it's been a season of personal bests but a cool 70 space not the only one making this team a veritable scoring machine. they wouldn't be the same without him. and the sonics fight. the fun loving homegrown hero who brings his own unique qualities to the agang. 6 typical. trip to. the gulf he's blossomed under hunching flag and has become vital to the team again so if a player's got the self-confidence he can deliver that level of performance so he lie still and superclass a match takes the team miller laid on his 20th the sister of the season a new bundesliga record remarkably off to match day 10 he had just 4 assists to his name but said hansei flick took charge the bandai hodges being honest to club run for 4 which is probably a cheesy thankful thanks i love. buttons attack is in a league of it's a bit it doesn't operate in isolation but the back can often under the radar teams another pivotal service provider. their game plan revolves in bi

and when jefferson davis heard about this, he was furious. why would my people leave the comforts of that wonderful planation and life that i provided for them, when they could labor seven days a week for no pay. and that was the astonishment moment in the history of the civil war. >> could we see it just -- grant. >> now i they he's leaning on a tree. >> with a hat, right. >> to the right is -- with that hat. he was an informal fellow. and there is jefferson davis who was abandoned his plantation for quote/unquote public service to function as the president of the confederacy. and again, he believes that the slaves had no legal right to their freedom and he expected still that they would win independence and he would petition for ownership. as we know, that is not what happened. a few days after that incident in the drawing, maybe we could look next at the newspaper version. >> yes. >> there it is. >> we have the adaptation of the drawing into a wood cut engraving for leslie's paper august of 1863. >> and it earned a side bar, but not a big
