in housing rates of discrimination in terms of criminal justice in the ways in which it's applied what what's very unique about what's happening in the last couple of decades is that we're confronting the fact that we have a mainstream american society that has said that they themselves believe in racial equality but whenever they are confronted with the significant proof to the contrary they develop an alternative narrative that usually relies on the behavior of african-americans in particular to explain these vast disparities they don't like school they drop out that's why they don't have the same education they don't save their money that's why there's this extraordinary wealth gap so there's a kind of narrative about the so-called failures of black people that drives the resistance to really confronting systemic racism so that's mainly why we're in this situation and of course there is a significant segment although not a majority of americans who are old fashioned old school racists something that we don't talk clearly and explicitly enough about. particularly and in london let me

or in other words, why i think we need this book in this moment. and then give you a brief overview of its contents. in doing so, i will talk a bit about the history of slavery in new england more generally. so why write this book at all, especially in this moment? it came out last year in 2019. in the end, i envision this book as a conversation or rather, me narrating a conversation that has been going on for about the past 25 years, and you see four different conversations going on in that time period. the first, there has been a massive outpouring of academic scholarship, books, journal articles, and things like that, by scholars on the topic of new england slavery. much of that scholarship, and i am totally guilty here, has been hyper specialized, focusing on particular places, moments, themes, or sets of sources. these works, as excellent as they are, sometimes make it difficult to see the bigger picture and also sometimes, they are sometimes inaccessible, both because of the way academics write, but also because of things like pay walls that

this is produced in london in 1775. it's certainly not one of the most famous or recognizable images on either side of the atlantic produced by the war of independence and revolution. but it's a wonderful window into the complexities, and potentials within which was a very young and new british union. the print and its messages are powerful indicators of how large parts of english political culture outside of parliament and even to some extent within it exhibited range of negative attitudes towards evolving british policy in north america from the mid 17 sixties to the 17 seventies. these attitudes ensure uncertainty, and ease, deep trepidation to out right sustained hostility and opposition. conventionally, some of the dynamics in this image show us why scotland more than any other part of the british and irish aisles would be deeply committed to the british effort in north america. this isn't to say that all scott fought for the crown. william storming on the military side, probably the man that got irritated. of cour

in 2005, the super bowl was played in jacksonville, florida. the reason that was noteworthy when it happened is because at that at that time jacksonville, florida, was the smallest city to host a modern super bowl. in 2005, the population of jacksonville, florida, was fewer than 800,000 people. but come the week of the super bowl, an extra 100,000 people flooded into that city. that is a huge expansion in the number of people who are ever in jacksonville. when it came to the need to house all those people, it quickly became apparent that jacksonville didn't have nearly enough hotel rooms to go around, which should have been kind of a limiting factor for whether they were even in contention to get the super bowl at all, right? you can't house anybody who's coming to see the super bowl, then you can't host the super bowl. but despite their dearth of hotel rooms, jacksonville really, really wanted to host the super bowl that year. so in order to address the housing concerns, jacksonville got creative. >> the stadium sit as long the st. john's rive

in court. this amended version of the emancipation act offered a more expensive means to claim freedom. the new legal measures, however, clashed with existing law in surrounding counties. depending on whether the laws of the confederacy or union applied, black women traveling from slaveholding states could be considered enslaved. even as wartime emancipation took its course. for instance, the fugitive slave law of 1850 stipulated fugitives must be returned and penalties should be imposed upon officials and locals who refused to return them. therefore, while thousands of enslaved women made their way to the district from loyal slaveholding states like maryland and delaware, they claim freedom illegally, even after emancipation the courts in washington, d.c. enforced fugitive slave laws on behalf of owners residing in states that professed loyalty to the union. white property rights were not antithetical to the aims of the union. secession was. competing legal priorities made life complicated for

nothing ever is in life or in politics. challenge that steve king had also came within his own party, and he was defeated in a republican primary, in large part because the republican leadership abandoned him after he made some of these comments in 2019, but they were also abandoning him because of how weak a showing he had in 2018. he almost lost in his very conservative, very republican district. they got behind a state senator who's also very conservative, who's also very closely tied to donald trump. he tied himself very closely to the president in his own ads. the campaign that the republican opponent to steve king ran wasn't taking on steve king's past anti-immigrant or racist statements. he didn't mention that reallyt at all. it was focused on the fact that steve king had lost his prestigious committee assignment that republicans had stripped him of that. so that was a bigger factor in this race than the statements that he had made previously. >> woodruff: and now that seat is going to be one tougher for the democrat
