this is exactly where dr lewis also done. some special or minute on me in your question i gave you and you can just talk a bit along to send a message to skip to tell us about the return. of. the young couple. of them to. the full effect. of the who is the conscience more than on the mystic point for both of them runs the bar or proposals put on the system one can just and stuff down the money and the record. longer exists. oscars would sit. at the book at any mission but i've yet to come. it was doing just a bit of stand up shots. and dozens of posts in this news and the mostly edition of theirs and i'm sure. yes all three are cautious upset if not the corporate. signals or the slow. ones most of all on the stick order book quest and say thank you to. all of you for its new giving it show that this isn't the ridge post pics are pure on the. person you're talking to be hearing from your point you are. but it but despite its own experience of not first. order to compare them. as you do i missed solution i knew my bets wouldn't

right below that, dr. lewis a u.s. sanitary commission dr. in frederick, maryland. he talked to a lot of confederates when they occupied frederick. he said they all believe in themselves as well as in the generals, and are generally in earnest. he thought they were pretty tough. one of the things the confederate army has as a big strength is most of the soldiers in the army are combat veterans. they are experienced combat veterans, trained combat veterans. goodas very small and very command team. he has two essential wings. congress doesn't yet allow a karmic or to reform. right wing and left-wing, stonewall jackson. he has this really good command team. as the campaign progresses, the problem for quartermasters like william elder manifest themselves and grow to the immense proportions. only get enough of four are meant to eat don't believe general lee's army can be whipped. he is confident, but he can't get enough for the men to eat. that will play havoc with this army. when the army gets to leesburg, virginia, they have a shakedown. kind of like what sherman did w

but at the same time dr. lewis raised awareness of who's america can can be claimed in terms of the narrative. so i'm wondering if there should be a shift in language to say national narratives because there is some things that are not accepted. when you think about in the words in terms of religious liberty. we advocate for religious liberty but there is a narrative when you think of the enslaved who were not able to practice religious freedom. also the work we do about civil dlol is to have those conversation, to seek understanding so where are the spaises in which this is happening outside of colleges and universities, and how are colleges and universities really addressing this issue? because there are some people not ready to accept the real narrative. >> i think there have always been narratives, plural rather than singular, and conflicting narratives about whose america, and in some ways my story of the two flags is a symbolic illustration of these conflicting narratives about whose america and how do we cla

dr. king marched, our colleague john lewis was beaten to almost his death, bleeding on the edmund pettus bridge, to restore section 5. section 5 might even help this issue. because section 5 provides preclearance to any voting procedure that any state may have that would be unfair and discriminatory. so if my colleagues want to argue anything, they can argue that really the main bill that they should be putting forward is a restoration of section 5 of the voting rights act. because we have found throughout the states that we do have violations. voter i.d. laws that are discriminatory. we have voter suppression. we have people being purged off of lists. and interestingly enough, they happen to be poor people, african-americans and hispanic citizens. so i am opposed to this legislation. i don't like legislation that is a get-you legislation. i have great respect for my friend from california. i frankly believe it's a state matter. it's really a city matter that could be handled by those who are concerned. but for the national question of voting rights, yes, mr. speaker, i see that for the
