later in greensboro north carolina. the records just weren't there. i thought i have struck out frankly. the one thing you think you know how to do is go through the archives and answer questions. nobody valued that. and then i got lucky. i fell upon an interview that she gave in 1978 she and my grandfather for many years had run a place called bennett college a black women's school in north carolina. greensboro where they lived was kind of the fabled in civil rights history. they haven't talked about 1920 at all. the brilliant story about young women who began to knock on doors. to that danger is a work of getting black americans on the voter role. i think that's where it aptly should arrive at. working to come back to that. the fact that she wanted to talk about 1965. to the reason that the book exists. we will come back. when did you know you are going to improve this memoir. and why do you think. >> a long time ago i went to law school. one of the interventions that they made into legal scholarship. was to surface the word i and to give us the lat

greensboro, north carolina. good morning. caller: good morning. i think it is so important to think about what the republicans are really doing regarding the supreme court. this is a time when so many people are hungry. they have no food. they have lost their jobs. rather than taking the next three weeks and getting a stimulus package to help the american people, republicans are focusing on the supreme court nomination. i think that really says a lot about what republicans are about. thank you. speaks to analler issue that is very much on democrats mind. callousness in the priority of senate republicans at this moment. as the caller set, people around this country are suffering economically. there have been more than 200,000 deaths due to coronavirus. message does, what it send that at this moment when there is so much pain, the only senators in the capital right now are those who are rushing to confirm a new supreme court justice? host: in the hearing that begins tomorrow, you mention a couple of senators won't be there because they have tested p

but she was kind enough to take a break from her day to try a greensboro institution, yum yum's. >> talk about this place. there's a lot going on leading up to november 3rd. >> it is a swingy swing state. i think a lot of people have said north carolina is a red state. i don't think that's true. especially we've seen in 2018, that wasn't true. but i think there's still the opportunity for republicans to win in north carolina. >> do you worry the state could flip this year? >> i'm definitely worried about it. but i'm trying to do everything that i can to make sure that doesn't happen. >> this is absolutely delicious. >> this is why i got the cup. >> i knew what i was doing. i'm not making a mess eating ice cream. >> reporter: it's no secret the candidates are noticing the energy coming from young people this year. >> here's how you can spot a zombie. >> reporter: both trump -- >> he absolutely has an issue with the truth. >> reporter: and biden appealing to the youth vote with goofy ads and memes across social media and youtube. no matter what side of the aisle you sit on, or if you don't

. >> reporter: inside the guilford county elections building in greensboro, north carolina, early ballots processed, sorted, and in some cases, rejected, if voters fail to fill them out properly. while the overall rejection total is relatively small, absentee ballots submitted by latinos and african americans in the state are three times more likely to be turned away than those from white voters. near the top of that list is guilford county, where dr. t. anthony spearman sits on the board of elections and serves as president of the north carolina n.a.a.c.p. >> african americans have not been cultivated to use the absentee ballot, and as such, it's their first time doing it. with that naivetÉ comes along some opportunity for them to not get right what needs to be right. >> reporter: in georgia, voting lines have stretched as long as 10 hours and delays appear concentrated in the racially diverse atlanta area. nearly half of georgia's active voters live there, but according to one analysis, they are served by only 38% of the state's polling places. >> voters are tenacious, but they shouldn'

katie dorsett was the first black women on the greensboro i was proud to follow in her footsteps. after serving on the security she was elected to the county board of commissioners and went on to serve in governor hunt's administration and the state senate. we served together in the general assembly and katie was a friend and mentor whose friendship i cherished. hen the greensboro news and record remembered her in july they wrote, she carried herself with dignity and always spoke mind. that was katie. she was a great leader, a strong advocate for her community and north carolina is poor without her. mary mcalister was also a legislator, a county who broke barriers for black women. the first black woman to win a election in cumberland county, north carolina. the county the way commission elected commissioners so she wouldn't be the last. fountain of confidence, mary had a sense of humor and she could build relationships with anyone. stand up tofraid to the good helloed boys club -- in the boys club legislator and we -- legislature friends.came great i'm humbled to have the honor op

nobody in raleigh or charlotte or greensboro these elected officials from other states are trying todrive national policy. the states actors can come in here and try to dictate from the state and local purchase. we had been talking with him in the manhattan to two. these are the unelected. you can find a link where you can actually get jim's book. but i really want to get back to something you mentioned early on in our conversation. you brought the cdc. we are paying close attention to the cdc. they are scientists and experts much more than i would suspect any of us ever paid to the cdc for covid. talk about the power. with the national review. they were a piece that headlined the cdc and the power grab and i think one question here is one really relevant here. if kids food residential evictions. with the administrative state what can't the administrative person do. there are still trails around what congress can do it is an extremely broad power. under the commerce clause. they have permitted congress to most of what it wants. that's not really commercial behavior. guns in schools.

. >> during a campaign event in greensboro, north carolina, today, vice president mike pence is presented to the podium. he has continued to hold events even after five close aides contracted the coronavirus. pence, though, has tested negative so far. the lit it's polls give joe biden a slight advantage over president trump in the tar heel state. >>> here in california, large numbers of people have already cast their ballots. more than 7.6 million people in our state have already voted. that's about 52% of the total ballots that were cast in our state for the 2016 presidential election. so far roughly 2.3 million more votes have been cast by democrats than republicans. tom tom vacar spoke with voters earlier today about the different ways people are voting. >> reporter: yeah, and that vote is really important. i'm glad i voted. so should you. this is likely to be one of the nation's most critically contested elections in all of american history, pure and simple. we met some alameda voters today who deeply believe that voting is a sacred and threatened right. >> i think voter suppression i

who ended several men up in greensboro, north carolina. he acted as a porter for the rest of the war. ultimately he moved to louisiana afterward. another man had been captured at a battle. he was one of the survivors. he was sent to mobile, alabama. he was aided by a white irish woman to escape. these are just slivers of these men's lives. it is just about their military service. it does not give us the whole image of who they are. what they went through from their birth to their death. but it does give us something to start working with. to expand what we know about military service for blacks. particularly, formerly enslaved black men. whose lives were not codified in records. before the war and after the war. they did not codify their lives to any degree by record. blackas something that prisoners continue to have to negotiate after the war. to undertakee direct action and make these choices in order to survive. their survival is not an indication of that. it is a combination of a lot of different factors. his photograph is often refere

you had a very comfortable life and greensboro, north carolina, you were very active in philanthropy. your wife is an ambassador, or was nominated to be ambassador to canada. any second thoughts about taking this job? >> not at all, this is a fantastic organization, with very committed people. i think we have a very promising future if we get a few things aligned and move forward with them. i think i have a certain type of expertise, and availability also and willingness to engage in this type of activity. i'm happy, i'm excited, i think -- i've had a warm welcome from the team here at the postal service. we're working hard to move forward to get to the election and get on with our ambition to be an exciting player in the marketplace. >> as i may have told you, i have a special interest in the postal service because my father worked and the postal service the entire career. he retired when he was 55. i have a summer job once my job in college, in between freshman and sophomore years, i was a mail carrier. which is actually one of the best dogs i ever have and i enjoyed it. so i have a

districts with unusually delayed delivery times including atlanta, detroit, fort worth, texas, greensboro carolina, and pennsylvania. the extraordinary measures include ballot-only drop-off lines at post offices, extending post office hours, sunday mail pickup, and early mail pickup on monday and tuesday. the order also creates a process to deliver ballots on election day from mailboxes directly to the board of election without that mail through a postal processing center. joining us now is kathy mcfar, pennsylvania's secretary of state. can you tell us what the situation is with those seven counties and why they don't believe they can even begin to start counting until the day after? >> thank you so much for having me, lawrence. appreciate it. let me start with this because i think this is even more important, which is to say overseas military voters, their ballots are not actually due until one week after election day. so does the president mean he wants to disenfranchise all the men and women serving our country who are overseas? i don't think so. elections have never been called or fu

to kingston, north carolina today, scheduled to go to new hill, north carolina tomorrow and onto greensborocarolina and greensville, south carolina on tuesday. so would you say this travel is safe? >> i can't say that it's safe. he likely was significantly exposed and we know that a test is just one moment in time and that you can't test yourself out of self quarantine. and i do think that he needs to follow the cdc guidance and the fact is, if he was a significant exposure, you need to self quarantine for 14 days, irrespective of any test result and i think that's what we should be actually held to, that same standard that every american is held to. arthel: the new york times is reporting that the white house chief of staff, mark meadows, he had sought to keep the news of the outbreak surrounding vice president pence from becoming public. is this good protocol for public health? >> it's absolutely the wrong protocol. you want to be as transparent as possible during this outbreak. and we want people to know who might have interacted with the vice president that they could have been signific

martin jenkins becomes president in 1948 and often times we talk about the lunch counter sit ins in greensboro60 but similar demonstrations are unfolding in baltimore in 1948 led by two black women specifically. also lily jackson who is a longtime president of the baltimore naacp. all of this through 1940s and 1950s and martin jenkins arrives as this is happening and is in constant communication with these people. in fact, he talks about lily jenkins, giving her the honorary degree at a commencement ceremony at morgan state, talking about all the things she's done with the nation. so if you think about martin jenkins has a formal title president but he's taking his cue so often from these black women who are in the streets organizing so many different organizations and so forth and then also his wife elizabeth jenkins being the member of apple account for alpha sorority and the connections there throughout the east coast and the nation at that point. martin jenkins also speaks at a number of fraternity and sorority national conventions because he's an academic, he's a scholar as well training

from they're >>meanwhile, greensboro north carolina vice president pence made a pitch for a strong military and economic recovery and law and order joe biden is telling americans to clear the decks for action on everything from the coronavirus pandemic to the economy if he's elected president in warm springs, georgia today biden went after president trump and his administration for saying they can't contain the virus now his chief of staff. >>just last week made a stunning admission. and mission. i believe, but there are thought he'd say. saying quote we're not going to control the pandemic and of crone. we're not going to control the pandemic. it's a capitulation. so waving a white flag, it's a window into the shocking truth. about this white house. >>biden's running mate kamala harris made a campaign stop in las vegas today, the california senator answer biden's policies, including is tackling the pandemic systemic racism climate change and the economy. >>and in florida today, former president barack obama campaign for joe biden in orlando obama talk to an audience gathered at a drive-in

national policy being driven by state and local officials and nobody in raleigh or charlotte or greensboron new york city and san francisco or albany and sacramento and these elected officials from other states are trying to drive national policies. i call this the new anti-federal, Ãbeven when the federal regulators get it right, the states actors can come in here and try to dictate national commercial regulation for their state and local purchase. >> we been talking with james copland here of the manhattan institute about the four key areas he reviews in his new book it's called "the unelected: how an unaccountable elite is governing america" ...... they are paying close attention to the cdc. much more than any of us ever paid attention to the cdc before covid-19. but talk about the power. in fact john mccormick over at national review just a few days ago wrote a peace to headline the cdc power grab. i think one question here is really relevant to what you are talking about in your book. if the executive branch can unilaterally suspend evictions limit the spread of coronavirus, is there

i was in raleigh, north carolina, greensboro, durham, and so there are organizations, nonpartisan groups who are saying they are watching and looking out for people to intimidate voters telling them you don't have to stop and talk to anyone. you don't have to show anything to them. you can just show them the hand and keep moving and so that's also important for people to understand. >> thank you for setting that up for me, roland, because i will be in north carolina in six hours talking to another group of voters as i've been doing every weekend. the carolinas themselves are just remarkably interesting stories in this election. two competitive senate races, african-americans coming out in numbers that we have not seen since barack obama. suburban voters getting to react to donald trump's warnings about all the people who are going to invade and wreck their property values. it will be interesting to watch. thanks to the two of you. vanita we'll get that phone number out. >> i can't reach mississippi from north carolina today. we'll put that number out there, 866-our-vote. vanita gupta, ro

several men, like richard french, who was sold out of a prison in richmond, virginia, ended up in greensboro, north carolina, imprisoned and enslaved by a moveder and ultimately down to louisiana after the war. or men like say mo brooks, who at the battlered of fort pillow who was sent to mobile, alabama, where he labored as a blacksmith for the rest of the war and was aided by a white irishwoman to escape. and these are still just slivers of these men's lives. this is just about their military service. it does not give the full picture of who they are, what they went through, from birth to death, but it does give us something to start working with and to really expand upon what we know about military service for black men, particularly for formally enslaved black men, who just did not have the privilege to write about their experiences, whose lives were not codified in records by former enslavers, their births, marriages, deaths before the war and after the war. former enslavers made their claims, but they certainly did not aid them by codifying their lives, to any degree, to state records.
