he wasn't afraid to reveal some things that douglas was.s papers are almost entirely at the library here. the only reason i'm doing this or hasn't been a modern biography sense 1871 i find him incredibly fascinating character. he is a little button-down. straightlaced. i keep working. come on. six years? vaudeville? what did you read? that they lived in a hotel on 5h street on the west side called the marshall it was known as the black hotel and the craziest parties in new york. i'm trying to get to that. i don't know. [laughter] but eventually he is seen as the dean of black writers and is seen as the cultural broker of black america and a whole era of what we call the harlem renaissance but he never called her that it was just a phenomenon of the black artist it was people all over the country and they all write to him. i have been at this since january emily at the m's. and he gets and list letters from young poets especially. usually black but not entirely they write to him and send them on - - him their poems and for reasons i don't qu

douglas. wait a minute, not so fast. in a given territory, say that ian takes his slave into kansas, when he arrives in kansas with his slave they look around and say oh, this is kansas. where's toto? so they look around and say, this is kansas. at that point ian's slave says this kansas place is nice, but you know something in it's over the territorial border and i am out of here. feet, do your thing so he run away. at this point ian says all right. call in the marshal and apply the laws for fugitives. wait a minute, there is no law in the books yet. douglas says that illustrates a point. in theory you may have to agree with chief justice tawny. in kansas and nebraska and western territories that are carved out for him, you're going to have to recognize it, nobody in those territories are called up to pass, to adopt, to implement the police measures necessary to enforce slavery. so doug lar reasons all a territory has to do is to refuse to enact the police regulations that enforce slavery. be

this is part of how frederick douglas describes him. he says, quote, i have now lived with him, meaning his slave owner, nearly nine months, and he had given me a number of severe whippings, without any visible improvement in my character or any conduct. now he was resolved to put me out as he said, quote, to be broken. there was in the bay side a man named edward covey, who enjoyed the kpe crated reputation of being a first rate hand at breaking young negroes. breaking. frederick douglas then goes on in chapter after chapter after chapter in this auto biography. look at this. the experience. you know, covey's manner of proceeding to whip. chapter after chapter after chapter he describes this experience, the way that edward covey tortured him and beat him nearly to death and worked him nearly to death all the try to destroy frederick douglas 'spirit, to turn him into a docile slave who would work out question where he would then be returned to his owner. because douglas is so capable and brilliant, his own recounting of what happened to

he's running for a senator at the time against douglas.ouglas had controlled the illinois democratic party and at that time there were not directly elected he became the senator. so what happened was in talking about slavery made another argument. this was during the first debate. he said you know, every man has a right to earn his own. i'm paraphrasing, to be on an equal footing with everyone. so this is lincoln's view of economic progress that you have a right to offer your labor for pay that you have the opportunity to ascend the economic ladder. how do you move up? how do you avoid being this back a woodsman all your life doomed to farming? how do you do that? while this is part of the american system. it kind of grown up to learn in our history. but there's more to it than that. here is something even more exciting. this is another side plot and the whole lincoln story that really during his sort of i would not call exile but it's his estrangement from politics which would last roughly from the time he leaves the general assembly to m

it's not a matter to stephen a douglas. it's not a matter to the advocates of popular sovereignty where the slavery is right or wrong. it's just annoying. so get it to a place where it's not going to be annoying. at least not to the rest of the country. but it is exactly this that lincoln hones in on. lincoln is not content, merely to criticize kansas nebraska because it's a repeal of the missouri compromise. no, there is something much more wrong with the campuses nebraska bill and the logic of popular sovereignty and the thing that is wrong is this business of the indifference about slavery. that's the real root of the show. because the only people, the only real eighties and people are going to buy into kansas nebraska, the only reason they're going to buy the repeal of the missouri compromise, the only reason that they're going to buy the notion of legalizing slavery in the territories is because they've been persuaded by people like stephen a douglas to be in different. on the subject of slavery. it is this declared in

but, to say these things what is douglas doing? again he's putting down native people who in his words here have not utilized the west. of course as an educated man i knew the land was not free and at always been part of the national domain but rather taken from indian hands. douglas also knew a swell of american immigration to the region would change and worsen circumstances for people. yet, here he is savagery and civilization to juxtaposed with the region was allegedly like what it might be like after interracial american immigration of whites and blacks. now while douglas is to speeches are given represented the same belief on they deserve to share in the spoils of the native blacks because of how it boils down to is my identity is two different worlds because african americans and the united states, allowed me too see the categories we traditionally put natives and american black people into. i might see them as victims are people who have horrific events occur in their lives and baalbek against them. and so we celebrate their

the city of 1869, douglas estes. negro is like a white man in the indian and the taste and tendencies in this position to accept civilization. the union rejects our civilization and it is not filled with the negro coming he remains with you under all circumstances and slavery and it freedom. now here we can see the clear dichotomy be made between african-americans and white americans in one hand and native americans on the other hand in the first native americans are on the bedside the uncivilized side. and really joining african-american goals behavior with the white people are civilizations heard in another earlier speech, for the landless. and the people of the national domain was an enterprising and intelligent and race of immigrants transforming the wilderness into communities and multiplying and adding to the wealth and productive industries of the nation would extend the area freedom. an increase the political powers of the north and part of the people. there dangerously the institution of slavery in a democra

i am not claiming any more than douglas did that all northerners were saints and all southerners were but even after we have accounted for the wars excesses, for its cost, for the human suffering and fallibility and cruelty on both sides, it remains irrefutable on the issue of slavery union and confederate ideology were starkly opposed. o union ideology with this emphasis on free labor and on majority rule and insistence slaveholders should no longer rule the country was a framework and which change and progress were possible, not inevitable, not easy, but possible. figure six frederick douglass and harriet tubman on the face of admittance diversity of cracked open the door to change. confederate ideology by contrast, was a acdefense of slavery in the political supremacy of slaveholders, flatly rejected the possibility of progress they were about enemies of change and sought to close that door to freedom and chain shots. the union causes frederick douglass himself invoking the war of ideas, was based upon the broadest and grandest declaration of human rights the world ever heard or re

oh, yeah, so then news of this, of course hits the black community frederick douglas douglas goes nice, you know because douglas and said no one of his arguments with henry highland garnett was no this is our home. we are not africans anymore. we're not going to liberia. we're not going to see early which had been set up for free africans and either capture by the british on ships after the same as band. the safe trade to the british colonies abandoned in 1807 into the united states in 1808 and liberia, of course, which set up by the american colonization society. and 1826 for freed, um african-american to quote unquote go back go back and it wasn't in go back. you know, they weren't from liberia and they by and large are very few of our ancestors. who were from what is now liberia about 25% of our ancestors. we know because of david altus and david richardson's amazing database which suits you could look up right now on the internet's called the it's called voyages.org now, but or you could look it up under the transit landing safe trade database about 25% of our ancestors came from s

so this is what you are saying here is the cover page of william douglas' book is called the practical history. i don't think i am actually. [inaudible]. i am not sure but is hampshire assuring screen and i see it now, let me go back. this is the cover page of william douglas and spoke which calls itself the history and it is an epidemic or epidemiological newspaper but it's also a piece of journalism that was published in 1736 called the disease still underway. and bringing information to the public at that time. and here's a look at what the questionnaire the daniel mentions but a look like, it was printed that was sent to the ministers and outlying towns. new hampshire and massachusetts then they were asked to fill up the horn and send back and in here is an example of what you filled out in some of these forms were saved, not all of them but about 17 of them are saved and are in the collection and massachusetts historical society and that's where i got this. this comes from bradford which is now part of hazel and it was used some of this material was used in the book about the epid

douglas had gotten a few more case histories. he came very close to discovering what i mentioned before but it seems likely given the data that he collected and a little bit collected later in modern epidemiology that there was a different disease in boston compared to what was going on in new hampshire and the merrimack river towns. there was the diphtheria out of boston and it was started in boston because the incidence of death was much lower in boston and douglas is very puzzled by that but he didn't getenough clinical studies in order to quite make that t judgment . and henchmen really didn't get enough of his stories about children, some but anyway, they did want stories as well asnumbers . >> seems like a very human kind of response to want those stories as well, it's just the numbers. so this is a question directed towards sarah but i think anyonecould really jump in on this as well . this is from paul i believe is the name. during the epidemic did anyone think print could physically transmit disease and have you found an

this is one of the associate justices borrowing money to pay george douglas $53 and change for a robegeorge douglas am not exactly but there is a father and son in new york city who are merchant tailors and they were right around the corner basically from the merchant exchange building where the court was meeting and jay lived. so my suspicion is this is the key player for the early robes came from. connected with the douglas trading company that has branches in scotland and my suspicion is these early robes may have been ordered from overseas and sent to the court. because it takes almost two years for them to finally arise. there's a lot of questions we still don't know but that gives some clues that the justices are starting to get robes. then there is an interesting letter coming from thomas johnson who joins the court 1791 after john rutledge design on —- resigns and also can you oblige me to have address made for me intended for the other judges so those that have ordered their robes to get once he can match everybody else has on but what i found interesting is that at the end h

douglas said it was a gloriously anti-slavery document.he spirit, people actually read who wants to do only one side of the story as if racism was baked into the american dna. there is the racist side of the story but they miss the emancipatory tradition represented by frederick douglass who was a lifelong republican, said the republican party is the ship and all else is the see. laura: the contrast between the way the media covered china's nationalistic pride at the way they cover patriotism of their own country is stunning. last week hannity was teasing me about it i was away, reading leaders, they are previewing the one hundredth anniversary speech from president xi in china and they write as the party is strengthened under xi and the rule for public dissent is narrowed public discourse has become increasingly nationalistic with many chinese expressing pride in the country's achievements crediting the leadership of xi and the party. so their pride is fine. american pride not deserved. >> china reads the left likable, they know every cha

change without having to resort to violence, and that was a collins great message to the world and douglas often referred to himself as the black o'connell because he was inspired by o'connor. so point i make is that james holman lived through a very eventful time in world history in particular. the american revolution which had a huge influence on his homeland? and it's it. it planted in ireland the seeds of a republican tradition that eventually bore fruit in 1922 when ireland became independent. so as ambassador violence in the united states, i'm proud and pleased to be here today to recognize the work of james corbin, but on the evil saint patrick's day also to recognize the contributions that so many irish people have made to this country over the decades generations and centuries past in that sense. james corbin epitomizes the irish connection with the united states that will be celebrating with as much gusto as we can tomorrow that's possible in the virtual world. thank you very much. thank you very much. ambassador. have a special presentation for you yesterday at the white house.
