davis and is totrobert e. lee, o general president davis. it is totally against that. lee does not want any grounds to make he figures any ground you loses, lost resources, lost population. he thinks this ground is -- he believes the union army can't get -- they can't get past cluster point or yorktown. well, by the beginning of may mcclelland has heavy guns implication to be nging away in you town. and ely in the month, johnson pulls out. he starts heading up the peninsula and e does, you'll see franklin, t me see if you can see that point. t know, franklin's over here. franklin actually takes angelat was point to a place called ffins landing. he to cut off hnson, johnson's freedom to it. he's a day in $1 short. he was right, that's what th union planned to do. he was gonna pull back, strategies to pull back on the chickahominy river. that runs like this. i don't know how many of you saw the chuckle hany river. mike gorman, who's a story and with the park service calls innocent drivers. and it is, if you look at it, if you look around richmond at the chickahominy, wha

and davis being from mississippi, and for the lid on that right away. lee said, finally be anymore troops i will have to retreat i can't give these guys up pretty sword sends a pad and happening as long street stays with lee ratably doesn't allow to be with johnson because he didn't look at amazon for his. >> washington dc, i noticed that on senate being appalled at theu mean sherman and johnson. sherman. [inaudible]. when sherman passed away, it was a rainy day and for the funeral and johnston is there uncovered, no hat on in the rain pretty and someone said something like, you should cover yourself and protect yourself a simple sherman would do it for me and i have a lot of respect for each other that really came out of the meaning of the bennett place in the weather twice as for several days. they work through a lot of things political and military they didn't have the authority to do all that they try to work together to end the war and move things forward to get beyond the violence in the unrest in the attention that was still going to linger and i

he's not good at working with davis, obviously. robert e. lee plays davis like of aisle in. that's one reason why they play along together so well. they are trying to manage their own reputation. he passes the buck in tennessee. he doesn't want to get himself dirty and get mired in things, which causes real inter personal issues. >> in comparison with ali, lead it a masterful job and communicating with davis. he was smart enough to realize, i have to get along with this man,, and he kept him understanding what was happening at all times, i think he did a better job of communication. >> i think one of the reasons why people give johnson a lot of credit is because sherman gives him a lot of credit after the war. sherman speaks very highly of johnston. johnston, specifically during the 1964 campaign. that is good for his postwar reputation. some people look at sherman as being such an effective campaigner. i have another question over here and i will make my way up to the front of the room. we might assume you are where you are from. >> johnny scully, fairfax. with respect to w

jefferson davis refused to accepted but the point that stood out to me in his letter to davis was when he said i cannot even accomplish what i myself desire. so lee mentally reuben crafted himself a new mission. in place of the great victory, he would harry and away union forces to buy time for a political process to negotiate an end of the war. this sustained him through the overland campaign and into the siege of petersburg. again, i'm not going to go through the un and the yang of the petersburg campaign but it was gradual attrition. what i wanted to see was what kind of information was ali getting about how the war was going elsewhere. and what was he saying. what does this tell us about his state of mind at this time? eight douglass south hall freeman would have some sort of quiet lee posed determined, capable, able. here is what -- everything i'm going to read here are lee quotes. january 27th, 1865. he warned the confederate secretary of war of the alarming frequency of desertions from his army. soon afterwards, order from his headquarters pronounce the penalty for advising or p

- to ask senator davis some questions. would she yield? - senator davis, do you yield?at this point. - senator deuell, senator does not yield. - when i was elected to the texas senate, i was only the 13th woman ever elected in the history of the texas senate. there had never been more than four women in the senate at any one time. the year that i was elected, for the first time, we had six women senators, an all-time record. one of my very first experiences as a state senator standing up and getting my microphone out and speaking on behalf of my district, one of my fellow senators, a male, older republican. including those that we've been discussing today-- - senator, i'm sorry. you know i have a hearing problem, and i'm only getting about half of what you're saying. - i'm sorry, i will speak up. - i have trouble, i'm sorry, with women's voices and i'm just not getting it. - and it was just such a breathtakingly honest, but also symbolic reflection of what it was like to be in the texas senate. - i know you're new to the legislature, but the fiscal impact on the bill, t

it was a burst of anger directed at jefferson davis south davis was even more of what was back? russian cuckoo crowd world? [laughter] and anybody else in the confederacy at that time. lee would be respectful, things aren't exactly looking as we hoped they would and i think it would be prudent if you considered starting to evacuate less important things of the confederacy, it would have been not get your rear end in here and get ready to get out of town on short notice kind of warning. i'm sorry, i didn't get -- i couldn't hear it. >> [inaudible question] >> it is not me making it cut off. >> he believed that lee made it clear before they abandon richmond and petersburg of the cause was lost so his argument was that any loss of life as you look at the beginning of the spring 65 as a loss of life so while you say he did the honorable thing and surrendered, how would you respond to someone like no one who said his own words, he said it was up and continue to fight even what you said, it doesn't make sense there's another offensive gambit according to noland and even your own words

pedro, i was just telling the call screener that daryl davis is a davis. i wonder how you survived all that stuff. in louisiana, you know who louis armstrong is right? guest: i'm a musician! caller: louis armstrong came here to alexandria, louisiana, and he said this was the most racist city he had ever been to and he would never perform here again. i just want to know, how have you survived all this stuff? i faced racism myself. i am 61 years old, and the fbi essentially set me up in something. how do you go up against these klans and live? caller: thank you, cornelius. i am 64 years old, and i have had my share of racism. i continue to face it, but i believe the greatest weapon and most effective weapon to combat racism is the least expensive and the most underused. it is called conversation. i believe a missed opportunity for dialogue is a missed opportunity for conflict resoti. that is how i deal with it by applying those values. is everybody going to change? absolutely not, but if someone is willing to take the opportunity to sit down and have a conve

there's another jeff davis avenue short drive away in jefferson davis. his home and presidential library is just up the highway like many mississippi counties, our court house, or the monument to confederate soldiers. and some of our neighbors flew the stake flag and their yards. something i'd never seen any place else. so yes, in mississippi. remnants of the confederacy are everywhere. but even at the civil war relics, joe and brandon, mississippi change seem inevitable. tell me what sort of interactions are you having with folks who are interested in buying mississippi said people are buying mississippi state play more than usual. evidently, there must be a shortage on the horizon somewhere in it a shame. okay, my name is tim cupid. i'm a member of the sons of confederate veterans. when i started doing my family research, i found that my family hold on both sides union and confederate, but if some people lane laugh, some people lane, right? well, i'll find out we want people to remember our past what our ancestors went through, and this drives that we

it's jeff davis avenue, named after jefferson davis, a mississippi plantation owner and us senator, who advocated for the expansion of slavery into the new territory. and he was elected president of the confederacy. there's another jeff davis avenue, a short drive away me and jefferson davis's home in presidential library is just up the highway like many mississippi county's our court house at the monument to confederate soldiers. and some of our neighbors flew the state flag in their yards . something i'd never seen any place else. so yes, in mississippi remnants of the confederacy are everywhere. but even at the civil war relics, joe and brandon, mississippi change seem inevitable. tell me what sort of interactions are you having with folks who are interested in buying mississippi. paypal or buying mississippi state play more than usual. evidently, there must be a shortage on arriving somewhere. in it a shame. okay, my name is tim cupid. i'm a member of the funds, a confederate veteran. when i started doing my family research, i found that my family hold on both sides union and confed

davis, i agree. i am just very concerned that this is something we should not be doing, that it is not our business and i am disappointed the biden administration cannot make this work. >> i want to clarify that 7000 -- 70,000 workers are impacted by this, which is half of the workforce in these four unions. the railroads cut the workforce by nearly one third. more work for the remaining workers to do. a policy that penalize workers for being sick. workers want paid sick leave. and that is the issue. it was not that 24% increase. but the concern was sick time. and being able to be there for their children and their families. and so we really need to look at this in a humane way. the railroads cannot find their way in accommodating their workforce that is working hard and kept this country going during this pandemic, it is really a sin. the railroads are the ones that brought us to this point today. >> maybe i can ask one follow-up question. this case -- the sick days are not included? >> no. it is no

if nancy davis had not came along when she did, i would've lost my soul. he has not somebody who is ready to settle down or even open his heart. i think because of her incredible radar, she senses that she will have to wait this guy out. at one point his mother nelly even tells that. to nancy, who she likes a lot better, she says i can see that you are in love with him. he is not in love with you, yet. you will have to wait and you will know when he loves you, but you will have to wait, and she does. it takes several years for him to sort of come around and cfinally commit himself. i found the early years of the reagan marriage fascinating as well.. you referenced fewer interesting movie roles. the bustling home life. ronald reagan for audiences all over america. it all led to the realization that ronald reagan connected in a very real intimate way with people and then it all took off. campaigns, sacramento, more campaigns. tell us about those busy formative years. nancy's role with all of it. they really are scraping bottom. at one point, reagan agrees to
