with this idea of the new jim crow to understand innovation goes hand-in-hand with containment. often times we conflate technology with social progress we have so much evidence to counter that conflation but to produce new forms and by using this idea of the new jim crow it is a reality from the perspective of those that are harmed from these fancy new developments. think of marketing and the promises that they hide the reality. the new jim crow is the way to understand and name things from the experience how they experience it. so to think about the conversation last week was so crucial how we could reduce oppression because we are not getting to the heart of it. that doesn't tackle exactly what dorothy articulated. so the history and the technology, that has always been part of the arsenal. so to lay out that social history and that technology was a lantern. that forced black people to carry a lantern to be easy identified after dark. that's why the genealogy of facial recognition now. that was a technology of identification that goes back pretty far. so there is a spectrum fr

that possibility of course it is much different than pre- jim crow but jim crow help to press the black community in singular spaces where there has to be a means of coexistence. those that don't exist to the same degree but there is sympathy that exist among black people and obama despite his be nine presidency with improving the condition of black people is still incredibly popular among african-americans that is why michelle obama is popular among african-americans. that being said, the further we get away from the period of civil rights and the political insurgency that erupted during that period, the more the class communities are entrenched. i started to think about the article three weeks before it came out. originally in the article was the mayor of new orleans who is in the midst of breaking a strike of black sanitation workers by using black laborers to break the strike of the black garbage workers with an increase in pay and hazard pay because of covid. so i chart this and some of it is a publication i think there's always been over the last 50 years a black caucus for above

so that through line is the story of the night 19th century and jim crow and right up to the civil rights movement. time in the way of knowing that you described a lot of people think about the street. but it turns out that there is a separate trajectory that in many ways is lesser known to be sure. but also perhaps more revealing of our contemporary crisis of mass incarceration and racialized policing. it is a story outside of the south in a story that doesn't so much involved wench mobs and the german shepherd but it's about a technocratic language that emerges worried as a kind of national way the black people weren't dangerous criminal class and that story runs through a particular person is a fascinating figure. a lot of people know the history of public health or more generally known that the history of their occupational actuarial science because from about 50 years, he was perhaps the nation's leading demographer, a single authority on an expert in homicide in the nation. any kind of cut his teeth in the late 19th century when the time when most american demographers were just get

[laughter] >> allysia, i agree with dan, there's zero chance. i think a lot of support -- [inaudible]

because right after that we had the jim crow laws. jim crow laws, white entrances and colored entrances. white restaurants and colored restaurants. we then had the ku klux klan who intimidated african americans from voting. in alabama, most of the men that had weapons where the confederate soldiers. they became the policeman. they then created all of these laws. if you are standing on the corner you could be arrested. they amended the state constitution to say that if you were incarcerated, you could be subcontracted out for labor. that meant they would arrest people and put them right back on the plantation to work. during the same time, we had all of the lynchings from 1860. thousands of lynchings that took place from that time. we had all these things happening during that period right up until 1954 with brown versus board of education and things settled a little. it was another ten years before the civil rights bill was passed. after that happened, we could go to any library in the city, not just the one here. the signs were final

90 years and the jim crow jr had to do with what not just devastating. still working class as a duty. incarceration only to to cripple the educational system into indecent owing to communities and families and how low out the racism you know is. terrifying it's core to the problem so is the sexism which we don't talk about enough they are essentially promising to for store a hierarchy in which people know their place which men get their place this is what we refer to as patriarchy this is a society that runs around the sort of structure of a family where the man is the head of the family except the man is the head of society. you get decent white supremacist forces capitalist forces paid your uncle force is almost checkmate precious brothers and sisters. these are not accidental bits and pieces in different places it all fit together in a very old fashioned way. it's all really about taking us back. to essentially a pre democratic year. it was all really about a battle that the losers after 900 never accept. and portrayed as defeat their right as the own

that is the story of the late 1h century, jim crow right up to the civil rights movement. right in the way, william, you described how people think about these histories. but it turns out that there is a separate trajectory that in many ways is lesser-known to be sure. but also perhaps more revealing for mass incarceration it's outside the south in the story that doesn't so much involved rich mobs and braces sheriffs, it's really about it's about language and discourse as a national way of agreeing that it's a dangerous criminal. in that story origin runs through a particular individual. you mention his name frederick hoffman who is a fascinating figure. a lot of people who know the history of public health, or more generally no statistics or occupational science or actuarial science no free to because about 50 years he was perhaps the nations leading to my demographer. he was a single authority he kind of cut his teeth when most american demographers were just getting started just seeing emerging trends in statistical data, particularly around health and mortality. so how

and the interesting thing about it, it's not the jim crow south, that's not what we say with jim crows interesting because a lot of people think that it's just the south architects. you assume it's just down home, but it was everywhere. very much like the systematic racism and prejudice and white supremacy, male supremacy, et cetera, that we see in our beautiful country now. so there are distinct parallels, and so they tell a story about that that's happening now. telling the story. so i mean, with that -- you know, brother floyd and -- and it's -- it's too relevant, you know. so yeah. it's home. it's home. >> yeah. you know, with folks like j.j. am brahms and jordan peele behind it, that opening scene, can i say -- blew my mind. you're talking aliens from outer space in the midst of korean war battle -- >> yeah. >> where -- how does it all fit together so well? i mean, this is getting rave reviews i have to add. >> yeah. that's incredible. that's really got to do with the crazy, wild minds of jordan peele and j.j. abrams. what we do at the beginning is a huge overture for the next i

legal slavery and jim crow and everything that accompanied the institutions. identity politics tends to conflate other minority groups as they continue to be graded day by day with the black experience in america so as a matter of chronology, how do these minority groups develop, perhaps we can begin with hispanic or latino for the new term they want to see his ex, i don't know how to pronounce this but i won't even try but i noticed your last name is gonzales so what is the hispanic identity and assuming people did not buy into it when it came out, why has it stuck? >> it is the unique black experience that is. the national organization for women were talking in terms of jane crow at the time to make a clear association with jim crow, marshall said, he said no, our experience is unique. i am not going to have a chapter on african-americans because they are a unique experience. i don't think is helping fill the hearts of minds of african-americans hatred but i do think slavery happens, segregation happened. i fight so hard because i don't want to go back to th

in the heart of the jim crow south the parents who picked somebody else's cotton, apparently he did note to farm work and on days when he was supposed to help his brothers and sisters with their labor he would hide under the porch and make a break for the school bus when it showed up. his mother, willa mae lewis, nurtured that curiosity in this shy, serious child and once you learn something, she told her son, once you get something inside your head, no one can take it away from you. as a boy, john listened to the door after bedtime and listening to his friends complain about the clan. one sunday he heard doctor king preached on the radio and as a college student in tennessee he signed up for the workshops on the tactics of nonviolent civil disobedience. john lewis was getting something inside his head, an idea he cannot shake, that nonviolence and civil disobedience were the means to change laws but also change hearts and change minds and change nations. and change the world. you have to organize the national campaign of 1960. he, and other young men women, sat at a segregated lunch co

so the southern states will use these very vicious jim crow laws to undermine the 19th amendment. and congress, which has the power to enforce the 19th amendment, will never step in and of enforce it until the voting rights act of 1965 put some legal teeth into enforcement. host: as we close our hour together, how should we as americans think of suffragettes and their contribution to american history? guest: i think the way to, and they are an incredible group. again, they had many male allies. but i will talk about the women. they were grassroots activists at every level. they were teachers. they were nurses. there were secretaries. they were factory workers. they were of all races. they worked to write injustice over three generations, over 70 years. and for quite a few of these women, that fight would continue. so i think we need to see that their persistence, their creativity, their ability to use both protest and demonstration, but also very savvy political tools. they become master politicians. they become orators. they become campaigners. they are lobbying and congress, at

and it is left to racist legislators who propagate that jim crowe laws in southern states. this idea that you can have constitutional law, but if it's not enforced if the public will , is not strong enough to force politicians to follow through on legislation, even constitutional amendments are not as meaningful or as powerful as they should be. so that is a really important , lesson for today. and it's also a lesson that, leaving aside your colleagues, your sisters, who we know are going to have trouble exercising this right you have just acquired, you have just fought for and won, in the 19th amendment, is going to weaken american democracy because you are not taking that next vital step. that is an important thing for we areemember today as the congress, state legislatures and even in our city municipal government bodies, trying to right some wrongs. trying to make a more equal and more perfect union. we have to remember that as secretary clinton puts a well you cannot leave your ideals , behind for political expediency. that said, there are forces that will try to make

to include everyone, was crushed under jim crow and disenfranchisement. the second reconstruction again was an attempt to send a marker see for everyone. it is based on a kind of constitutional understanding that the topic of america hadn't been fulfilled. this fundamental constitutional claim to keep our struggle and provide the kinds of rights, the second reconstruction deals with issues of housing and everything. the reconstruction i would argue does not end in poverty but it does remake not just the united states but recognizing the disposition of white supremacy, the abolition does not simply inform, is not simply -- talking about better jail, better policing, better training but a new means of justice as a whole and we don't just mean overturning affirmation or affirmative justice based on separation or oppression or creating new possibilities for life, to deal with seeing the bodies of all the constraints of gender and sexual norms. based on the evolution of projects. there is a backlash. the first and second reconstruction didn't simply fail or co

of whom came out of my university, colombia, so-called school and their part of intellectual of jim crow south. look what happened when black men were given the right to vote, the white south is correct to take the vote away. you gave blacks the basic rights you would have another replay of the alleged horrors of reconstruction. i'm sorry to say as someone who has devoted life to being a part of the historical profession that historians in this country played a very important role to put it bluntly in spreading racist false history which helps to legitimate the jim crow south and denying african americans of constitution rights. once the civil movement took place that fell to the ground and since then scholars have been rewriting reconstruction history and i think we see it today as a critical moment in the, you know, in the history of american democracy and the great tragedy of reconstruction it's not that it was amended but that it failed and i've written a whole bunch of books dealing with this, this particular even though it focuses on the 3 amendments, you pull back a little and it'

leaves congress who serve in either the house or the senate, and that has everything to do with the jim crow laws that go on the books in the south. the way that changes over time is there is a critical thing going on in the south where african-americans begin to leave the south and move northward as part of a multi-decade movement that would later be called the great migration. , depending upon which to stranger you talk to, 1890's and runs through world war ii. it picks up momentum around world war i, as there is a need in the north to fill industrial jobs and jobs that have been occupied by men who have gone off to fight in the war. you see tens of thousands african-americans moving northward for the first time, out of the world -- rural south to industrial jobs, chicago, st. louis, cleveland, pittsburgh, new york, and over time the african-american population in the cities increases. the african-americans in the cities are gradually recruited by the political parties. a perfectiest is example of that process. in theally is born south. he and his family are part of a group who moved to th

jim crow laws, georgia, the poll tax requirements applied only to men, had to be amended now to include women as a bar for voting or impediment for voting for black women in the state of georgia. but african-american women, again, in the national association of colored women now headed by an ohioan, halle brown, call on alice paul in 1921 on the eve of the last what turns out to be the last meeting of the national women's party and they implore alice paul to stay in the fight for voting rights, even with the victory of the 19th amendment behind them because black women know that the 19th amendment is not going to be enough to get all of them to the polls. they are disappointed by alice paul who will move on to laudable concerns like equal rights amendment, but african-american women now will to an important degree link arms with african-american men in a civil rights agenda that looks to topple many of the pillars of jim crow, including grandfather clauses and poll taxes and other state-level impediments to the vote. this is a story that takes us through to the modern civil rights era a

and with the request under jim crow disenfranchisement. the second was the attempt to expand democracy for everyone. again based on the kind of constitutional understanding the promise of america would be fulfilled. so this fundamental claim that we have to tweak our struggle and provide this kind of rights that were not provided before. part of that includes economic justice. matt don't issues of housing, the third reconstruction i would argue is poverty but it's attempt to remake not just the united states but the world, recognizing that this country in the modern world was found in his possession by supremacy, gendered and this abolition is not simply abolition that informs it's not simply tweaking the constitution. somewhat better jails, better policing better policing better remaking justice as a whole and by justice we don't just mean criminalization but creating an affirmation an affirmative form of justice of operations four years of oppression and also just really creating new possibilities for life. to do with the catastrophe of
