the east -- in the recent years i mentioned alan who at least made the cracks in the mold that eleanor roosevelt did. i don't want to bore you with florence but i wanted to get back to the issue of dna because this is something about inclusivity. a couple years ago evidence emerged that hardy fathered a child with nan britton, for years i had not believed this because i was on my mission to show that this was a story, we truman eyes these people. i wanted to show as a human being and the fact that her husband did have an affair with kerry phillips, there was evidence and letters and the archivist help me find these in wyoming of all places. the letters are now open, from 2014, that showed this relationship. i thought here we go again, we want to bash the hardings and make this salacious story about an affair with no evidence but the fact is that florence had a child with her first husband, a short-lived marriage. so clearly she could have children and he couldn't so how could there be this child that nan wrote about as the president's daughter. but back forward to 2015 after the letters came up

franklin eleanor roosevelt's greatest fear was that fascists especially subversion in latin america wouldthreaten the security of the united states of 100 meetings of the joint planning commission of the u.s. state media and war departments in 1939 and 40 all but six have america at the top of the agen agenda. this is i guess little known. why was franklin roosevelt so worried about fascists being a powerful and posinpowerful and o the united states? one of the reasons is that germans were very, very popular. fascism indeed was popular in latin america. this is post oppression and fascism was attractive. remember in the early it made them run on time. some of them would love to have trains and they have pioneered many people the fascist organization and their own didn't have to have them imported from germany they had their own homegrown fascist groups. the concern of the military was the latin america have all of the wartime materials that were needed for the machines as if were ever going to germany. there wa was tungsten that was d for tanks and platinum which was 30 times more valuabl

at five, hillary clinton unveiled a statue to former first lady eleanor roosevelt in oxford to mark 70crats but donald trump can still rely on kanye... i love this guy! i love this guy right here. at three, did theresa may start a dance craze? here's euro commission president jean—claude juncker. at number two, then again, maybe not. scotland's first minister declines to follow suit. i can barely walk in these heels. dancing was never an option. and, at one, shoes polished, cravat straightened, and. . . oops! the sergeant and his arms. finally, some news about the building in which mps and peers work. the palace of westminster is a world heritage site but it is also falling down. injanuary, mps voted to move out while a multi—billion pounds refurbishment took place. the leader of the commons told the committee a law to make that happen had been drafted and she accepted the work was long overdue. i do share the concerns of colleagues right across the house about some of these recent incidents with falling masonry and floods, and with the various problems and the work that is under way a

mentioned ellen wilson, florence, who i would say at least made the cracks in the mold that eleanor roosevelt broke. let's remember that about florence. she really did make some interesting changes. i don't want to bore you are florence right now. i did want to get back to the issue of dna because this was something -- telling the story of inclusivity, you probably know a couple of years ago evidence emerged that warren g. harding had fathered a child with nan briton. for years i did not believe this because i was on -- i was on my, i guess, mission to show that this was a story. florence harding we -- one of the thins we do, all of us, in local history and inclusivity, we humanize these people. i wanted to show she was a human being. the fact is, yes, her husband did have an affair with carey phillips. there were letters, the archivist hemd me find these in wyoming, of all places. there's a big akooif out there. now those letters are open. opened in 2014, almost a century after harding died, that showed this relationship. then there was this nan briton character. there are no letters. i thou

johnson's over the fireplace and eleanor roosevelt. and so mrs. bush said to her, "lady bird -- ". >> maimmy eisenhower. >> yes, may meet eisenhower, i apologize. but laura bush said to her "now, lady bird, i want you to know i had this room repainted in a color that would match your beautiful dress." and she took her up the elevator and her husband's portrait on the state floor and fouer and mrs. johnson, i will never forget it in her wheelchair lifted up to embrace her husband and one of the things as a staffer in the white house, you are not a principal, you don't live there, you work there, but it's one of those incredible privileges and opportunities that you get to see firsthand that really remind you what a blessing it is to have an opportunity to be there and to witness history. >> you mentioned -- talk about the way in which the johnsons took office, which is through tragedy and you mentioned a quote, which i had forgotten until you recited it yesterday. mrs. johnson ascribed that period after president kennedy's assassination as american

eleanor roosevelt to that undying credit. not necessary don't do it in one day in february of 1942 infamously they began the japanese american. eleanor was. spirit and the people if they look at eleanor roosevelt they have an awful lot of time traveling maybe they didn't share the same political ideas. another thing they really looked for in a war presidents. you want that with empathy. especially in wartime. we have to build a new national cemetery. there are some people being buried. i don't want to be distant from the decision has been made. can you imagine i can't even stand to watch a chicken being slaughtered. one of the things you will see in there is a small cape of the spiritual life because they said it was so important spirituality was so important during that time as it was for his predecessor who'd been commanders in chief. during times of war. let me read a passage from the introduction. it really lays the premise for this book. to risk the abuses of power they created the constitution that gave them the sole po

john's over the fireplace, and then eleanor roosevelt's. and so mrs. bush said to her, ladybird, i want you to see -- >> and namy eisenhower is in there too. i'm sorry, i'm sorry for the eisenhower descendants that are in the room, i apologize. i'm talking about mrs. johnson's visit, i'm sorry. but laura bush said to her, now, ladybird, i want you to know, i had this room repainted in a color that would match your beautiful dress. and then she took her upstairs in the elevator and brought her by her husband's portrait on the state floor in the grand foyer and mrs. johnson, i'll never forget it, just in her wheelchair, you know, leapt up, as if to embrace her husband. and it's just one of those things that, you know, as a staffer in the white house, you realize you're staff, you're not a principle, you don't live there, you work there, but it's one of those incredible privileges and opportunities that you get to see firsthand that really reminds you, you know, what a blessing it is to have an opportunity to be there and to witness history. >> you mentio

and every sunday the nation here is eleanor roosevelt on the radio.and the nation not only hears mrs. roosevelt but a lot of the nation actually saw mrs. roosevelt. she was very rarely at the white house. she was constantly on the move. this during the great depression. and she a zoomed famously the role of eyes and ears of the president. famously thesumed role of eyes and years of the president. out inrld war ii broke europe, she saw an opportunity for american manufacturing and the american fashion industry. and she was very much a permitr of the ladies' union but she also, for all of her social activism, took enormous pride in the fact that she was named to a best dressed list. when she made these public appearances around the country, she knew the public wanted a little touch of elegance. they expected it of a first lady. she was in trains, planes, and drove her own card. winteron the hottest days, she wore a for peace. -- fur piece. it and little kids would come up and want to touch it. mrs. roosevelt though was very practical. she liked to dress

for the new hampshire democrat party to be highlighting him as a guest speaker at the eleanor rooseveltof all things, it's disgraceful. but this an example wet were you are in new hampshire or across the country. main street democrats have to decide, are you going to associate with extreme liberal elitism? that's what government is about. it's about public service getting things done. the democrats have to decide if that's who they are going to be represented by. trish: you see what hillary clinton is saying. she is saying we can't be civil until we win. >> i take a lot of pride in new hampshire. we need to lead by example. you have to remember when it comes to public service the job is not about ourselves or what we want individually. for me it's about the 1.3 million people i represent. when you work collaboratively and positively, you let all the idea come to the table, amazing things happen. trish: people in new hampshire do work together and they are civil because they want to get stuff done. but you look at the federal government and you see a massive division. >> it's a circus. w

remove a lot of famous americans from their curriculum, including hillary clinton, helen keller, eleanor roosevelt, feminist betty friedan and the father of modern conservativism, barry goldwater. great, now kids will have to learn about barry goldwater like i did in the streets. ( laughter ) passing around dog-eared old copies of the "national review" they found buried in the woods. ( laughter ) now, at the high school level, the board voted to reinsert the biblical figure moses as an influence on american politics. also, biology class now covers how long you can live inside a whale. ( laughter ) and sex ed involves passing out fig leaves and telling kids to avoid taking fruit from snakes. ( laughter ) but all is not lost, because removing figures from the curriculum wouldn't prevent teaching about them, but would mean doing so is not mandatory. so teachers can decide whether to cover hillary clinton or have their students go through life wondering why donald trump wants to lock up crooked "what's her face." ( laughter ) by the way, by the way-- ( cheers and applause ) secretary what's her face i

now, since martin luther king and eleanor roosevelt and how she went on the bus and she was african-american, but after the 1920s and all that things change. presumably natalie is referring to the jim crow era in the story of rosa parks. her mom who listens to her daughter as natalie makes these comments does not intervene to correct her or guide her. she nods along as her daughter speaks. after the 1920s and all all that things change. natalie, as well as many other children clearly have not been taught much about the history of race and racism in the united states. either at school or at home. i did not attempt to quiz the kids on history when i interviewed them. through the course of our discussions i think they were underinformed with respect to the history of race. natalie and her sister erica also tend to flat in time. events and those taking place 100 years later later during the civil rights movement appear to be one in the same to these kids only really famous race scholar. socially shared tales. almost all tell me that racism is only a feature of the past. something that happened d

declaration of human rights which was negotiated for the united states by her personal hero, eleanor roosevelt. when i spoke with her there, we discussed the crisis in democracy, what kavanaugh means for the rule of law, and for the midterm elections. >> hillary rodham clinton, welcome to the program. >> thank you very much. >> you're here to talk about the crisis in democracy, not just in the united states but also around the world. let me just take you back to election night 2016 when you said we have to give him a chance, we have to let him prove himself and lead, talking about then president-elect trump. now you say you think you were overly hopeful. what, precisely, about democracy has you rried? >> well, really five things. i started worrying at his inauguration both because of what he said in his speech, which i thought was defiant, defensive, dystopian, it was not a speech to bring people together who had not supported him, but instead it was aimed, as i say in my book, at the white nationalist gut. and then over the course of now nearly two years since the election we've seen him degr

the new hampshire democratic party hosted its first eleanor roosevelt dinner with remarks by alec baldwin, who recently cowrote the book "you cannot spell america without me." c-span, your primary source for campaign 2018. sunday, the professor at university of california hastings law school in san francisco talks about his biography of john marshall. >> john marshall's legacy was up skewered a single opinion, his decision in marbury v. madison. that is what he is known for. but the fact is john marshall was a soldier in the revolutionary army. he was very important. he was the judge advocate general of the army. he served at valley forge. he serves as a leading figure in the virginia house of delegates, and probably the indispensable man in the ratification debates because he was the guy who persuaded the majority of n delegates. without virginia, there would not have been a constitution. he was an important diplomat in negotiations with france and secretary of state. and all those other contributions that he made as a founding father get forgotten because the significance of his one dec

and museum is a combined sites of the national park service site which manages the home and eleanor roosevelt's home in the national archives managed site which is the library museum. one of the things that happens is that the homesite, the national parks have started a program engaging for the fifth graders to get them involved in making decisions about what kind of service programs they want to do. they came in his fourth graders, decided with the going to do, a set of nine proposals and this year they go back as fifth graders and the class does that program. cokie: so give us an example. paul: i don't know what the nine things they chose were, but -- the food kitchen, to help pick thea neighborhood or involved with transportation, whatever that fifth-grade class decides to do. but the point was committed shift the responsibility from us, the national park service, to the students and empower them to come up with their ideas by's rather than saying here is your homework assignment. process the democratic and they become engaged in whatever they decide to do and execute that. doesn'tsomething

and of course what could be a more appropriate setting than to meet in the home of eleanor and franklin roosevelt. president roosevelt had his own problems with the court. and his own reasons for thinking it was the most dangerous branch. for those of you that don't know the history of the house and are first-time visitors with apologies to those who have heard this before this is a home that was the wedding president of sara delano roosevelt. it was really conceived as two separate houses with one street entrance. sarah lived in number 47 and the western house in england and eleanor got number 49 but as soon as sarah entered the premises and use the dining rooms upstairs you will see during our reception she immediately declared that they were much too small. and as eleanor wrote later her mother-in-law was on her side of the house at the least expected moment for the next 25 years. i was a great real estate deal. when a seller -- she died it was acquired at a discount for hunter college. for all of $50,000. it's not on the market. and 75 years ago next month eleanor cut the ribbon outside on th
