franklin roosevelt really was the son of sarah and james roosevelt. you can go to the next slide. and here he is in 1900, just graduated from groton and about to head off to harvard. he had a truly privileged childhood growing up on the hudson valley on the river side with a summer home and an apartment in -- family had an apartment in manhattan. he really was a part of the very privileged elite. next slide, please. there were two branches of the roosevelt family, one branch lived up in the hudson valley and another branch which lived on long island and that was the teddy roosevelt side. and this is eleanor roosevelt in her wedding dress and she was given away by her uncle, teddy roosevelt, who happened to be president of the united states at the time. her mother and father both died when she was young, a child, and so she became teddy roosevelt's surrogate daughter and part of this big roosevelt family. next slide, please. franklin and eleanor had seen each other at family events growing up. as he was graduating from harvard, he really sort of fell for her and this is 1905. this

paul sparrow points out the personal and political partnership between franklin and eleanor roosevelt. mr. sparrow, director of the franklin d. roosevelt presidential library and museum in hyde park new york, shows museums that take a behind the scenes look at the couple. the national archives foundation provided the video. >> our feature speaker today is paulsboro. paul wouldn't have a job today and neither would i if it wasn't for franklin roosevelt who created the archives by signing legislation in 30, for opening up his library while in office. this is a feat that is not much today by our current president. paul is a director of the franklin roosevelt library and museum. before the fdr library, he was the deputy director and senior vice president for broadcasting in new media at the museum. he was a founding partner at the university of maryland future of alliance and a pioneer in interactive digital media. prior to his work at the, museum sparrow is a emmy award-winning television producer. he started his career at kpax in san francisco and i saw that we have some folks from cali

so the roosevelt institute originally it was the franklin eleanor roosevelty student. it's now just the roosevelt institute. they are the 501c3 that funnels private money to help us do these programs the roose? student like many of the other presidential library foundations also have other efforts of their involved with one is the campus network, which is an extraordinary collection of groups who cross the country i think about 10,000 students involved at over 150 campuses who are designed to train the next generation of political leaders. they come to hyde park a group of their leaders. come to hyde park every summer. it's it's a very inspiring experience with them. and then the roosevelt institute has a think tank where they bring together the great minds who develop new progressive economic policy ideas based on the core beliefs of franklin eleanor roosevelt. so the three different term, you know units work separately but work together and felicia wong. who's the ceo of the roosevelt institute has done a really remarkable job. yeah, she's terrific. we have a group in

he's very much a product of the new deal and was a protege, in many respects, of franklin roosevelt who saw the potential in young lyndon johnson. when johnson became president it was his hope that he would finish the new deal, that he would finish with his great society what president roosevelt started with the new deal and one of the things that fdr left unaddressed in his presidency was civil rights. i think that ultimately president johnson will be remembered as the civil rights president for having signed into law the civil rights act of 1964 which broke the back of jim crow and our separate, but equal laws throughout the south. the voting rights act of 1965, which gave all americans unimpeded access to the ballot box and the fair housing act of 1968, which allowed for fair housing for all americans. that's a principal legacy of lyndon johnson. ♪♪ ♪♪ >> ohio congressman bob latta talks about the newly released republican broad band plan, that's today from the free state foundation's annual conference live at 9:30 on c-span2, on-line at c-span.org or listen free on the c-span radio

franklin roosevelt and the -- his college leagues really were visionaries. they saw social security -- they thought but proposing universal health insurance, they looked at paid sick leave, they definedded social security -- today we define it as important at is it as the old age survivor's disability insurance program but they saw social security as basic economic security, that you need a good education, healthy childhood, need a good paying job, need guaranteed job, unemployment insurance and so forth. but they also knew that this was such an important endeavor that was really the first time the united states had really undertaken something so broad that they really wanted to start out slowly, carefully, make sure it was a success and build on it and every generation has built on it and now it's our turn. >> so, when we talk about the phrase, as you do in the book, social security and you both mention that it has a specific meaning, to most people i would say in the country today and that's exactly what you just described now, it's kind of insurance for o

so 1944 harry truman became president and franklin roosevelt's vice president and running mate. this was crucial because fdr was in declining health. the public was not aware of that, but democratic party insiders were well aware of fdr's declining health. and they knew whoever became vice president, would likely become president of the united states. the incumbent pry vice president, henry wallace was unpalatable for many reasons. harry truman had many positive traits, and it's impose important so he was elected with franklin roosevelt and served 82 days as vice president until franklin roosevelt's sudden death on april 12th 1945. with that i think i will turn over to my colleague tim. >> thank you sam here we have dwight d. eisenhower 34th president of the united states. and like harry truman they subscribe to a lot of the same virtues and values. they grew up within 180 miles of each other's. at many similar experiences. there was even an overlap, when eisenhower's older brother lived in the same boarding houses harry truman. that was around 19 hundreds. and even though the m

not enough praise can be heaped on franklin roosevelt for what he did in world war ii.there's no debate about world wars ii. we won world war ii. there is no evidence to this. i was trying to remember whenem auschwitz was first opened and it was in 1933 or 1935 or something like that. the u.s. state department and the u.s. government may have known about it and probably knew about it but obviously never -- no one did interviews so i had to rely on the information of the time which were the documents of the truman administration documents and the documents of newspapers and things like that and that's when auschwitz and the other camps were discovered was in early 1945.ed but it would the a very good book or good article when the united states actually knew about auschwitz and if so why didn't they move to stop an earlier? the was a very worthy topic of discussion.is >> host: your book citizen to making of a reagan conservative came out. >> guest: i would consider him a friend but i don't know p. would consider me a friend. it took three or four years to finish it. he es

your brothers and your family for their commitment to the work and one thing you mentioned was franklin roosevelt. president roosevelt although they knew deal with economic failure, it was still a social morale success and fdr's greatest success, greatest in the defeat of the empire of japan and nazi germany this in winston churchill and what he did, these two men literally saved the world. they saved europe and they saved america and the pacific from the acts of the powers, so no amount-- not enough praise can be heaped on president roosevelt for what he did in world war ii. new deal was on debatable is that there's no debate about world war ii. he's the reason we won world war ii. yes, i've heard that story appeared there is no evidence to prove it. trying to remember when auschwitz was first open in 1933 or 1935 or something like that and that u.s. state department, the u.s. government may have a new, probably knew but there's no paper trail to follow and obviously no one to talk to about this, so i had to rely on what was available to me at the time, which was fdr documents, truman administra

instead of having failure eleanor roosevelt worked with franklin roosevelt's secretary of the interior harold dickies and they arranged for marion anderson to sing on the mall in front of the lincoln memorial. and as it went as the planning went forward marian anderson, the night before wasn't even sure she wanted to do this, but it ended up being incredible 75,000 people showed up. i am picking whistle stop to show lady bird johnson on civil rights because she called it one of the most dramatic days in my political career. it was a historic campaign. it was the first time a first lady campaigned on around. it was planned by three women les carpenter for press secretary lady bird johnson and beth sable her social secretary along with the chair. congresswoman lindy boggs all of whom were from the south at a time when women did not plan political events like this. the time period of the train trip occurred from october 6 to the 9th 1964 it occurred at a very dangerous time in history because in july of 1964 president johnson had passed the civil rights act. and the johnsons from their so

of course, franklin roosevelt didn't live to see that. but what roosevelt did live to see and what he did do was executive order 8802 which created the fair employment practices commission. and there's a lot of thing we can say about that, but the most important thing is this: if you got a defense contract during the war, there were a lot of defense contracts going around. everybody want a defense contract, okay? it said if you get one, you can't desegregate your factory, and that was huge. it wasn't in terms of desegregating all factories in the south, but it was the promise of the federal government coming in and saying segregation in these southern states is wrong, and we're not going to do business with companies that have session redivision or with cities that have segregation. so it's sort of a seed that's planted, right? if after the war a lot of peoplr employment practices commission. but to see this plan that says the federal government will step the up and protect african-american civil rights in the south. >> i'm really glad you

in infrastructure and $1.00 trillion dollars on proving education and training have echo so franklin roosevelt's new deal during the depression in the 1930 s. it's not only a u.s. phenomenon one of prime minister boris johnson's plans for leveling up disadvantaged areas in the north of england was to spend billions of dollars on infrastructure programs separately a report commissioned by johnson head of the g 7 meeting in june said the world's richest countries should invest 10 trillion dollars to stalk a green for coverage and provide vaccines and a similar splurge could be underway on the european coincidence with plans to distribute 750000000000 euros in grants and loans to national governments it's all these prime minister mario draghi is banking on the 261000000000 euros to revive the moribund economy his spending plans could boost the economy by 3.6 percent by 2026 but all these plans may have. and its side effects inflation while stock markets have hit record highs they are jittery about the prospects of runaway inflation and central banks withdrawing support through cheap money fed chair

and one of those -- washington, lincoln and franklin roosevelt. >> host: one of the critiques of thegan presidency as he spent a lot of time talking deficits but they grew under his stewardship. >> he later wrote there were two things to be regarded that he was disappointed in, one was the deficit and the other, couldn't do more about it. it was explainable is what we know as the peace dividend. it was necessary to build up america's defenses, to cut for years as richard nixon's time in the presidency, gerald ford, jimmy carter and richard nixon all did that so you had soldiers in 1980 on food stamps, applying airplanes that were 50 years old and meanwhile the soviets are perfecting their newest technology including a bomber that is actually supersonic and quite deadly. reagan, that was his commitment, everything else is academic. this is the deficit that was created, the buildup. but if freeing millions of people imprisoned behind the iron curtain in poland and other third world countries, it was a price worth paying to free the millions of people behind the iron curtain. dirksen se

in in authentic newsreel footage by a narrator from 1945 saying franklin roosevelt has died. and the question that this theater poses is who is this farmer from, missouri? who is to take over. the reins of the of the free world and the question that everyone had in those days as the journalists and others that were writing about this put it. of harry truman they said can he swing the job? that was how they how they said that, you know. okay. is he up to the task? he was a little known farmer from missouri hadn't gone to college, you know wasn't a blue blood. well bred harvard grad like fdr, how how would he be able to handle this was the question and so that sets up for us an opportunity as we move into the next gallery to begin to answer those questions. where does harry truman come from? and what is it that gave him the kind of grit and the kind of capacity the kind of ability to lead the world as he did so you see for example now you can see we're still in construction. we're finishing up the construction phase. so this is a definitely a behind the scenes tour. but that pi

there is no statutory or constitutional significance, but franklin roosevelt's 100 days is without equal in the 20th century. 1933 was the depth of the great depression. the inaugural address is responsible for the phrase, we have nothing to fear but fear itself. less than two weeks after that, he gave the first of many fireside chats, explaining over the radio in simple terms what was happening to americans and how he would fix it. but roosevelt's mastery of the new medium of radio was not what made him the president who is remembered for the first 100 days. it was the breathtaking scope of bold and new actions that took place regular -- legislative and regulatory, that set the bar so high. to name but a few, he declared a bank holiday, which stopped the disastrous run on the banks. he took america off the gold standard, he passed groundbreaking legislation for the volstead act which created legislation. at ever since, presidents have been evaluated for their performance in the first 100 days. in fact, the amount of legislation that roosevelt passed was so amazing that comedians joked a

he was appointed by president franklin roosevelt to serve as the librarian of congress. when world war ii broke out. he organized the research department of the oss the office of strategic services. research division became what is now the director of intelligence at the central intelligence agency? and macleish wrote this poem at the beginning of world war ii. with world war ii in the forefront of his mind, but obviously with his world war i experience and the sacrifice of his own brother in the back of his mind as he wrote this so we hope we've transformed this site from a park that happened to have a memorial as one part of it to an integrated park in memorial. a park that you visit and recognize as a world war i memorial what can also enjoy an experience as a part. we hope that people who are staying in the hotels who work in the offices who are touring downtown will come and visit and have their lunch meet friends. enjoy some time to them some quiet time to themselves and while they're here experience the memorial and at the same time we think the various elements o

saying that the one and only reason that we mark the 100 days of a presidency is because of franklin roosevelt, president roosevelt. there's no statutory or constitutional significance. franklin roosevelt's 100 days is without equal in the 20th century. 1943 was the death of the great depression. inaugural address is responsible for the phrase "we have nothing to fear but fear itself" and less than two weeks after that, he gave the first of many fireside chats, explaining in simple terms what was happening and how he would fix it. roosevelt's mastery of rhetoric and new medium of radio were not what made him remembered for his first 100 days but bold legislation, legislative and regulatory, that set the bar high. he declared a bank holiday, which stopped the disastrous run on the banks. he took america off the gold standard. he passed groundbreaking legislation and amendments to the volsted act, which created proik. immediately, there were beer parties all over america in celebration. and ever since, congress doesn't pass legislation anymore. they just wave as the bills go by. such is to say f

the expansion of government, under franklin roosevelt.elieved, were the anti-christian and anticapitalist forces at the nation's best universities. buckley yelled stop, again, during the civil-rieghts movement. writing in 1957, that the south must prevail, because the more-advanced, white race, had an obligation and right to rule over others. he changed his mind during the mid-1960s, but many conservatives remain staunchly opposed to the landmark civil-rights bills of 1964 and '65. in other words, the modern-republican party has its roots in rebellion. rebellion against the main currents of change, in modern-american society. the growth of the welfare state. the secularization of life. and the increasing diversity of american society. the trouble is most americans don't agree with that protest. they may express discomfort with the welfare state, in theory. but in practice, they love social security, medicare, and the rest. secularization is a force that is sweeping almost-all advanced-industrial societies. and one government can do little

think from his perspective he decided a chance to be probably the most powerful democrat since franklin rooseveltgoing for both. that's his progressive. i suspect that he will lose his majority next year n. the meantime, i think what's really shocked most of us is the really left-wing of the democratic party now is so much more radical than offense even under obama that this thing has been metastasizing like a cancer and what they think is normal, 85% of the american people think is crazy. and i think that's going to lead to some very interesting fights and you see the erosion already in both the house and the senate as democrats get more worried that there's an enormous gap between the biden team and the american people and the gap seems to be widening and not narrowing. maria: and this week we learned that joe biden wants to blow off all protection from intellectual property. moderna spent 10 years researching a vaccine, it finally made a profit this week. the -- this is pretty much a gift to the chinese communist party. they've been stealing intellectual property for decades and now we are jus
