they knew him from the eyre incident. his international stock contributed to the media event around this. the final remarkable thing about menard's life is when he arrived in congress in 1869, he was only 30 years old. he accomplished this entire career of be a leader within the united states abolition movement, one of the participants in reform of in jamaican governor, a captain and victim of the morant bay rebelian and the first african-american elected to congress by the age of 30. i'll turn that over to matthew, who will speak about his congressional career. [ applause ] >>> mr. davis, if you would stay just for one moment. i am not matt. i am rod ross and i want to thank both clayton mckendra, a fellow board member here, as well as the congressman for coming. arkansas's loss has been illinois's gain for both of them. i'm especially pleased that the congressman was able to come. b.j. durham is a close friend of mine. her book "willie lee, a little slave boy with the desire to be free" is truly a remarkable work. she r

governor eyre does not take kindly to this. and cracks down with an iron fist upon the settlers of morant bay, sends in the army, and declares martial law. over the next several days of rioting, there's a contemporary engraving of what happened in the town of morant bay. over 400 black residents of jamaica are strung up on the streets, shot down, essentially murdered, brutalized. in the course of this event, with martial law declared, governor eyre's troops sweep through the parishesing of the east and round up anyone who was deemed a political agitator. this includes menard, it includes another of his associates, samuel clark, also in a remarkable display of arrogance, it also includes george william gordon, the member of the assembly, who is residing in kingston at the time. had absolutely no knowledge or participation in any of the events in the area so-called under rebellion. governor eyre had him arrested in kingston, loaded on horseback, transported into the rebellion zone where he fell under martial law, taken onboard a

governor eyre takes a dismissive attitude and this causes the two factions to come to a head just after the civil war has ended and after what we thought of as a major advance for freedom in the world has been attained. it starts in the area adjacent to his home. in the small colonial town on a routine court case there is an african-american defendant who is being charged with a fine for alleged trespass on an abandoned plantation that had been allowed to become over grown and this particular defendant in the case had crossed onto the land and we think that he may have attempted to cultivate some food. the class was attempting to clamp down on black attempts to establish property rights. this vindividual was brought before the court and given a fine and outside he is met by a man, bogul with a group of men liberates this prisoner of captivity after the court ruling. governor eyre does not take kindly to this and cracks down with an iron fist on the settlers sends in the army and declares marshal law. over the next days of rioting there is annen graving of what happened in the bay. over

brutal forced abortion policy and his heroic activism on behalf of the women victims which caused the eyre of the dictatorship to come down. we know the one-child policy is state-sponsored cruelty and constitutes a massive crime against humanity. the war crimes tribunals properly construed forced abortion as a crime against humanity. nothing in human history compares to the magnitude of china's 33-year assault on women and children. chen spoke out. chen and his wife continue to pay a price. that policy, as we all know, has made brothers and sisters illegal. it has led to the absence of upwards of 100 million girls who have been killed by way of sex-election abortion as part of this one child per couple push, and that has led to a massive increase in human trafficking, because the women simply aren't there. we held a hearing at which we heard that between now and 2020, something on the order of 20 to 40 to 50 million -- 40 to 50 million men will not be able to find wives because they have systemically been killed as part of the one child per couple policy, so, it is a very serious policy. c
