[applause] one of the things we are so lucky as to have eleanor's papers here along with franklin roosevelt and his administration. if you go over and look at the building, the two wings of the library are the eleanor roosevelt wings that were built in 1972. after the library first open, fdr started sketching what would be the structure here to incorporate eleanor's papers. when his archivist said do you think she will give them to you, he said he was never sure what she could do. how many of you are members here today? thank you so much. your support makes programs like as possible. we appreciate everything you do for us. we are a federally funded institution but we rely on private donations to allow us to do these programs and exhibits. today we have with us a very special friend and guest. she has spent many days here when she was working on the eleanor roosevelt papers for george washington university. she is now with george mason university. she has put together a book that looks

eleanor clift, basil smikle, eleanor, i want to start with you. you focused in your writings this week on those who are now furloughed, who are not being paid. those are government employees. and, you know, just looking at some of those who haven't been paid, when we look at the breakdown, the total dollars that they have not received so far, just the back of the envelope, i was doing earlier today, that's about, so far, about $1,700. overall federal wages unpaid so far, $1.4 billion. are we generally in that space? what does that mean to those employees that are out there right now? >> right now it doesn't have much of an immediate impact, because the last pay period actually ended the day that the government shut down partially. >> saturday the 22nd. >> right. >> so when does it hit the road then? obviously when the checks do not arrive, right? >> the next paycheck, you know, goes out as scheduled just yesterday, actually. and then so it would have to go on until about the 11th of january before people start actually missing paychecks. >> so the

and, look, eleanor, i want to be clear on this show, eleanor outranks both of us. >> this is true. my parents have been married 55 years and i think they still have some romance. i'll say this about nancy pelosi. these guys -- do they not know who she is and who they are messing with this she knows how to run that house and to think that the border wall, the funding, the shutdown is somehow going to move her off of her agenda and to be a check on power, a check on this administration, they're deluding themselves. >> that's where this debate does get rather personal because she is basically staring down donald trump saying i just won a 40-year record blue wave victory, don't you know i'm speaker and he's looking back at her and saying don't you know i'm loco and we're all waiting to see who wins that staring contest. >> right, right, and schumer that's got her back to return to my analogy. between the two of them, they have 70 years of congressional legislative political experience up against mr. art of the deal. he knows how to operate in real estate circles but has no idea how to

she was a great friend of eleanor roosevelt and a great fan of eleanor roosevelt.w did she thread that needle? a speech shea gave -- the same theme, basically she would say, when he gave speeches to groups of black voters, she would say, eleanor roosevelt is one of the great women of our time, a towering, moral intellectual present and how wonderful she was but this election is not but eleanor root, it's about her husband and she would tell the stories, and fdr has a lot of virtues but refused to allow black reporters at his press conference until being pressed to do so. that's a matter of record. but he wouldn't desegregate the armed forces but lied to the public saying that the naacp went along with his policy, which was not true. everyone has things they did that historically we wish we could get back in a sense, and he was very bad on a lot of race issues which is why there's that famous poem by langston hues, waiting of roosevelt. he writes owl all the black voters have got into roosevelt and gotten in his judgment, nothing in return. maybe that's true or not

we were motivated and interested in a letter to eleanor roosevelt. your government has erected a wall of bureaucratic measures to keep measures out. can't you do something about this? this is kind of our take on this paper wall. you see ship tickets, passports, letters of sponsorship with refugee organizations, affidavits of americans guaranteeing their support or sponsorship for immigrants. all this paperwork that they had to line up in order to make it to the united states. we operated under this immigration system. there is no system for refugees. jews who want to make it in or anybody who wants to make it out of nazi germany needs to navigate the immigration system. it's also quite expensive. you see all these examples from trying totion navigate the app -- navigate the immigration system. as i said, it really is the biggest story, you see the biggest productions of american newspapers across the country, showing headlines from november of 1938, the los angeles examiner says jews will be wiped out unless evacuated by democracies. this was huge fr

and of course what could be a more appropriate setting then to meet in the home of eleanor and franklin roosevelt, few may have heard he had his own problems and the court. it was of sarah delano roosevelt to her son and daughter-in-law in 1908. it was conceived of two separate houses with one street entrance so sarah lifted number 47. she declared that they were much too small for people in the station and broke through the wall. and at the least expected moments for the next 25 years. speaking of which when sarah eleanor roosevelt died to put the house on the market and it was acquired at a discount by hunter college and she spent a lot of time for all of $50,000, that is how much this double townhouse so far is not on the market and 75 years ago next month we are going to celebrate the anniversary soon as eleanor's birthday on october 11 and the anniversary of the declaration of human rights, for it's a very historical place and time of recollection and appreciation. back to tonight's program. david kaplan worked at "newsweek" for 20 years. his cover storie stories include profiles o

have done and one day fdr assigned the fatal order, executive order february 1942 and friends of eleanor felt the best from that moment on, their measure was never the same. he discovered his relationship with her social secretary in 1918 but stayed with him because she felt they shared political ideals after interning japanese americans and if you look at eleanor roosevelt during world war ii, she spent an awful lot of time away from fdr despite telling her we are at war and wish you would spend more time, that was the difference for him. these are some of the things these people in heaven have in common. i thought i would spend a while. time for questions and comments. the book opened in august 18, '14. anyone remember what happened in washington in august 18, '14? a little drip in the war of 1812 and burn down the white house, burned down the capital. the scene with which i open the book's james madison and dolly running separately through the wet forest of northern virginia and even though it is dangerous, the british wants to capture him and ssn 8 him, doing well in this war but cou

>> we really think about world war ii, we think about eleanor roosevelt and rosie the riveter.s many peoplech know, on the ground, looking for ways to report back to the president when he could not get places, talking about people in america who needed help. she was an advocate for african-americans. i grew up in west virginia and there were many examples of times when she wants to advocate and help unemployed miners, for example. in terms of the refugee crisis and how america responded, she did speak out when the wagner rogers bill came up. she encouraged the president to do that. he said, i can't, but you should. and in the end, she also chaired a u.s. committee on the care of children to bring child refugees, when the bill failed. she was also involved in human rights at the u.n. after the war , and was instrumental. . in the. u.n. declaration on human rights so we cannot really have this conversation about resilience of agency without -- i am glad regard her bring her into that -- i am glad we got to bring her into that. lori: talk about the revelations for women, when they

eleanor he wrote that first piece that i showed on my laptop here from miami herald talked to us about this lawsuit why is this program so controversial. but well i mean this for doctors are still in open house or pa in english their primary in health organization which is an un agency because they believe that they're going to say asian traffic it in human labor and benefited from who are what they deem is in a scheme of force labeled the problem is and this is the most controversial issue here is. according to official documents the receive the government was paying four thousand dollars to the cuban government for each doctor's but from dad doctors would only get our one thousand dollars but then they even get the complete amount they will get a part in brazil an employer would be returning cuba and they would get access to that money only if they returned to the island so basically they're saying that they were in been paid what the government was paying doctors from all their nationalities that were part of the program and also they were complaining that they were curfew they were

rights from the very early days seventy years ago coming up with this has been vital has it not it has eleanor roosevelt player i mean she was probably the only one but she was one of the very important people in the drafting of their declaration and in the history of the united states has been always very keen and term penny human rights and do you think the change in u.s. position potentially is in bold and being other countries whether it's shoji whether it's russian agents using chemical weapons in the u.k. or israeli soldiers shooting at protesters on the gaza border people don't fear the backlash that perhaps they did in the past well the u.s. as a country has been very important as a big leadership and has been very influential with other countries always so of course it does have a consequence and one of those issues of course is migration and we've seen the u.s. recently. the president be very critical of those who are approaching the southern border saying they're dangerous they are terrorists what does this make you think i believe that migrants and of course refugees that are in a
