old harriet tubman. and they never tell you it is harriet tubman until the very end.t's sort of a dramatic representation. they beat her. she was not there because she just happened to be passing through on the way to massachusetts and she heard about this and she got involved. that's the kind of politics that interests me. that is different from the legislative stuff. >> if i could add to that, there are slaves to get to freedom, who get to canada. they experience freedom and say, i cannot enjoy freedom without my sister, and he goes all the sister andets his goes back without using the underground railroad. like, youionists are know we have a network, right? [laughter] >> he could not continue unless he did it the way he wanted to, which was with his family. >> we do not know how many they avoidpe because the underground railroad. >> go ahead. >> the first thing this morning on national politics and party , there are a lot of things between parties on the national level. that change the politics, particularly i was struck by two things? there's the spectrum are reas

people will know her but i want her name to become a household name like frederick douglass or harriet tubman because she runs away decades before they do. so this is actually one ofst my first choices for the title resenting it to some people and the publishers hated it. they said you are giving away the story. [laughter] but so is 12 years a slave. we understand it will end at some point. it is a history of how a woman was a fugitive never found freedom. she was never caught that is a big distinction especially as i tried to dismantle slavery itself and the north and this moment when the nation to and this is one of theit other things i was trying to do was allow us to use what the early days of this new country looked like to be enslaved that is the opportunity of early virginia pennsylvania, new york and newo hampshire and can follow her life looking at how the nation i is changing grappling with slavery and this time through a young black woman who made the choice to run away. so i said i will read a bit and look at a few slides and walk through this journey of heran life. entrenching th

we all think about with the shawl, but harriet tubman as she led the underground railroad. to coordinate with the african-american museum to purchase that photo and make sure it was there. but to also have those pinch me moments, i call them, and to share these treasures. everything, these are collections that you go through and you see in the stack areas, 830 six miles of shelving. they reach from here to davenport, iowa. 30 million items to be catalogued and made available. the papers of 33 presidents from george washington to calvin coolidge. you walk down the aisles, as i did recently. because i have had the experience in baltimore, in maryland, and really, connected with frederick douglas's quote, once you learn to read, you will be forever free. i am going through the aisles in the stacks underneath the building, and i am passing by thurgood marshall, oliver wendell holmes, ralph ellison, susan b anthony, all of these people. and i get to frederick douglass. i say to the curator, can i just look at some of these things? i pull out a random box, box 22, open it up and

want her name to become one of those sort of household names, like a frederick douglass, lake harriet tubman, because she runs away decades before they do. right? so the title -- i'll give you quick story get title "never caught." this is one modify first choice knows title of the book, and i presented it to some people at the publisher, and they hate it. they said, gives away the story, erica. and i said, yeah, but so does "12 years a slave." honestly, we understand. 12 years, going to end at some point. with "never caught," this is really a history of how a woman who was a fugitive never found freedom. never free. simply was never caught. think it's a big distinction and one i wanted to make as i was trying to kind of dismantle what we think about slavery in the south and the north at a moment when the innings in is new. i think that's one of the other things that was really trying to do with this book, was to allow us to see what the early days of this new country looked like through the eyes of the enslaved. ona's life gives us that opportunity to look at early virginia, new york, pennsy

anthony and now the first photo of harriet tubman that was ever taken that shows her not as the older woman that we all think about with the shawl, but harriet tubman as she thaty left that -- l ed underground railroad. and to be able to correlate with the new african-american museum to purchase that photo in to make sure it is there. but to also have those pinch me moments, i call them. and to share these treasures. in baltimore with the rosa parks papers. just recently, the papers of frederick douglass. now, i have to tell you, when you are at the world's largest library with collections that date back to -- i don't know the and everything, these are collections you go through and we see in the stack areas. 836 miles of shelving and reach from here to davenport, iowa. and 30 million, her eyes are open like this, yes. bemillion items ready to catalogued and made available. the papers of 23 presidents from george washington to calvin coolidge. you walk down the aisles as i did recently, and because i have had the unique experience in baltimore and in maryland and really connected with

you'll also see the story of harriet tubman. she also served as a union spy. and also you'll see the story of susan king taylor who not only served as a nurse but ultimately opened up her own hospital. so why don't we look at the artifacts that speak to the freedom of emancipation. how do you tell the people that they are now free? in fact those same men that frederick douglas fought for were responsible for carrying things such as this, this very important tiny but powerful handhold emancipation proclamation. they carried a handhold emancipation proclamation from plantation to plantation and told men, women and children they were no longer enslaved. what did that mean at this point in time? well, the space we're in right now is actually quite powerful. behind me you'll see that legislation that started with the declaration of independence, bill of rights and carries all the way through the exhibition and comes to this point where we see through the agency of african-american men and women, we come to the emancipation proclamation the 14th amendment, the 15th

rubenstein: on the question of whether you would still have harriet tubman or not? sec. mnuchin: we have not made we will look and at whether we change it or not. mr. rubenstein: it was reported in the press that you recommended that how become the chairman of the fed. was that your recommendation? sec. mnuchin: i was very involved in a recommendation to the president but i will not comment on who recommended her or who did not. i think janet yellen has done a great job. i look forward to working with her. mr. rubenstein: how frequently do meet with the chairman of the fed? sec. mnuchin: every week. we alternate between offices. mr. rubenstein: have you ever said, maybe interest rates should stay low? respect the: no, i independence of the interest rate decisions. we talk about what the impact of the economy is. we talk about regulatory issues. we talk about international issues. it is interesting because when i started these meetings, i wonder what we would talk about. i would tell you, there has not been a week where janet yellen and i have not spent less than an hour

some people came back and said how disrespectful to harriet tubman, this is a white woman's movement. perhaps. interesting criticism. nonetheless, it is historic. young women of color are engaging in that conversation, is this about white women? i say, look, that's all about democracy, owning our voices. >> at one point you actually encountered some pro trump protestepr protesters. >> i was able to climb on a structure, police were cool with lets us journalists. it heard the protesters saying shame, shame, shame. i realized it was about 15, at the max 18, pro trump supporters, some of them african-american. >> 15, 18 total. >> total. and i was waiting to see the moment when it might get violent and it never did. there were older women. one woman came by and said all of you are too young to be such [ bleep ]. and then young women saying let's do a dance-off. they were engaging in dialogue. it didn't get violent because it's a woman's march. that's where this actually changes the conversation in ways that we can't necessarily label. >> absolutely. jennifer, this whole question of what g

rubenstein: on the question of whether you would still have harriet tubman or not? sec.mnuchin: we have not made any decisions as to whether we will change the bill in terms of that. the money has been a certain way for a long period of time, and we will look at whether we change it or not. mr. rubenstein: it was reported in the press that you had recommended that jay powell become the chairman of the fed. was that your recommendation? sec. mnuchin: i am not going to comment specifically. i was very involved in a recommendation to the president. i'm not going to comment on who i recommended or did not, but i'm very supportive of j. i think janet yellen has done a great job, and i look forward to networking with jay. mr. rubenstein: how frequently do you meet with the chairman of the fed? sec. mnuchin: every week. we alternate between offices. mr. rubenstein: mr. rubenstein: have you ever said, maybe interest rates should stay low to be helpful to the economy? you can't give him a broad -- prod? sec. mnuchin: i respect the independence of the interest rate decisions. we t

i read harriet tubman for courage and i thank god that my prayers were answered and faith restored and courage would be tell you i am my daddy's girl after all. [applause] one of the reasons i don't get into a fight with her. i remember when we went to see the pope when he came to the united states. we had to get something to dri drink. at 5:00 in the morning we were eating and she had a bag like the one mary poppins had in the movie and it was full of things and i thought to myself i'm never messing with this woman. [laughter] we are going to take questions from the audience, but i want to ask a couple more questions. one is this watershed moment that we are living. how has it changed you've been working in the east male-dominated roles. >> i wish that it would have came to life 40 years ago. the sexist jokes and conversations that you have to endure. there was this one guy i had to threaten him i'm going to walk you. i took him to the campaign office and pushed him like that. i used to be stronger when i was younger. i said if i hear from one more stafford you are touching her inappr

challenge for us has been -- and i would strongly encourage folks to take a moment and google the harriet tubman collective, and look at completing the vision for black lives, because in the movement for black lives, disability is pretty much significantly erased in it. it was black disabled leaders who went back and said let us create a supplement for this. let us make sure that natasha mckinnon's experiences as a black disabled woman are not ignored in this document. let us make this a more fulfilling. it's not only looking at our issues in the community about being too damn male and stale. it is saying we are already in your mix. how can we help you fix this? [applause] jennifer: i appreciate the point rebecca is making. one of the challenges we face, sometimes we make assumptions, that if we have got a certain person in the conversation, we can check the box. "oh, now we understand all of issues of persons with disabilities, we do not need to learn anymore, we do not need to look further, we don't need to unmask some of the things right in our face." one example i'm always reminded of, being

as a secretary mentioned, there ,ere freedom writers created cesar chavez, harriet tubman was , charlesl monument young soldiers in ohio. the people i worked with in the park service and the leaders turn the obama administration and very excited about this wanted to have the highest scholarship. there are times in the park service where issues, for example was not until the early 2000's that the park service was able to fully discuss slavery as the basis for the civil war. and so that took a transition in the park service, the opening i think that the secretary has talked about. so they're going to be these tensions. there is a time now that who knows what we can say at this point, but there will always be people that care deeply about this and the park service i am sure who will keep working to tell the full story. >> next question please. question: [indiscernible] -- my question is relevant to the last point, is there any danger that the national monument might be overturned or changed or rescinded, anything like that by the current administration or in the future? thank you. >> well,

and just as the were people who were resisting the victimizatio victimization, the harriet tubman said of the world and others in terms of slave rebellions, but also the people who are opposed to slavery. and that narrative of people resisting the oppressive condition on both sides of that story is an important piece that doesn't get enough attention, in my view. i think it would change not just the experience of the class but also how a facilitator, it would facilitate our capacity to have these conversations. thanks. >> thank you so much for your work and if so glad to see the diversity of this audience. [applause] it really does give me hope. i would say, my question is going to be about social media and the impact and how we begin to do the kinds of things you suggested, and light of that. but before that i wanted to say that i am a very, very proud double graduate of howard university. my big sister is behind me. i grew up in washington, d.c. in a segregated washington, d.c., not many people understand that where you could sit at the drugstore counter. you couldn't go in a departm
