john brown had known for frederick douglass for some years. when douglass was living in rochester, brown every time he would go east to raise funds for his various activities, he would stop in and talk to douglass. so he planned this raid on harper's ferry, and he said we need to talk. he hadn't told douglass exactly what he was going to do. i'm going to launch this raid on harper's ferry, and we're going the hand these weapons out to enslaved young men, and they're going to rise up. and he said you need to join us, you need to join us. we'll have so much more effect if you do because i you have credibility that none of us have by ourselves. and douglass said, no, i'm not going to do it. and part of the reason, douglass was somebody who had a sort of -- [inaudible] he ned for his own freedom, and -- fled for his own freedom. basically, he was a writer, not a fighter. but the other thing was, and this i can only infer, because he didn't say it exactly to brown, but what dozens realized was that brown's raid was basically a suicide mission. there

let's talk about john brown.n brown was a 19th-century abolitionist, who was so committed to the freedom of black people that he decided to take out an armory in virginia, with 21 of his friends. needless to say, it didn't go well. he tried to get more people to go with him. but even harriet tubman and frederick douglas were like, nah, i'm good on that. but good luck in heaven. but john brown's example continues to resonate with many white activists today, like the redneck revolt. >> what number of the club were you? >> 11 or 12. i joined about a year ago. the reason for joining is i saw what happened in charlottesville. i am a semi-observant jew and seeing the violence in charlottesville made me feel compelled to actually do something. >> okay, wait. white-jewish guy. a white woman. i need to talk to a regular-white guy. >> seattle is really white. i live in seattle. it's like -- it's like norway, essentially, right? but my neighborhood is like, 80%-plus people of color. and around the election time, all of a su

traditional idea of slavery, but part of me just finds it unbelievable that we don't have a really good john brown movie, and i know this sort of -- again, diverts right back to the white savior umbrella, but of course, brown ends up saving people by failing. that would be my angle on it. to sneak out from under the white savior umbrella, but i've long thought how is woody harrellson not john brown? he's got kind of that wild look in his eye. i'm sure he could do a whacky accent for us. he's no stranger to killing things in zombieland. that would be an interesting vehicle, and i think it's telling of the way people don't want to touch certain parts of slavery as it connects to the war. because how -- how do you not make a movie about john brown? i mean, he swings broad swords at people. he invades federal -- well, now as i think about this, i'm going to get in trouble saying he invades federal arsenals. don't invade federal anythings. that's not good. you'll get in big trouble. different context than "harper's ferry". i'll stop there before i get in trouble. >> a couple of people are asking about

they have of slavery but part of me just finds it unbelievable that we don't have a really good john brown movie. and i know this sort of again diverts right back to that white savior umbrella, but of course brown, you know ends up saving people by failing so i feel like you could play i would that would be my angle on it to sort of sneak out from under the white savior umbrella, but i've long thought how is woody harrelson? not john brown, he's got kind of that wild looking as i i'm sure he could do a wacky accent for us. he's no stranger the killing things and zombie land. um, i think that would be a really interesting vehicle and it's really i think telling of the way people don't want to touch certain parts of slavery as it then connects to the war because how just how do you not make a movie about john brown? i mean he he swings broad swords at people he invades federal well, now as i think about this, i'm going to get in trouble saying he invades better arsenal don't invade federal anything. that's not good. you'll get in big trouble rightfully so different contexts at harper's ferry

i feel like he would make a good john brown and that is on my list.his gets into a little bit if i can take this on a one-minute tangent. the shifting mediums that we see. the -- in the old days, you had film or you had tv. today we basically watch both on the computer and neither exists as it did a decade ago. so it's hard to sort of decide the impact some of these have, because you have these -- like a netflix series that wins awards, but then you find out a fraction of the people who might have seen "die hard 4" in theatres whenever it came out, it's escaping me now, who ended up watching the shows but as art. so i wonder if there's sort of this effect written the more popular something sounds on netflix or roku or fire stick, we assume it's reaching a bigger audience than it is, and maybe it's changing more minds than it is. i don't know. that's sort of a thing that i'll just dump on everyone else and let them solve. i saw one person votes for willem dafoe. i don't know if i see him as -- i don't know if he can ever be anyone other than elias runn

he also spoke about his former friend john brown you all know about john brown john brown who led the rise in the harpers ferry frederick tried to dissuade him, but when he couldn't he gave him some financial support and apparently the final words that frederick said to john brown were i will meet you in heaven. and i hope that happened so at that point when in nantucket 1885 frederick spoke on these themes and he also again urged that ending slavery in itself was not sufficient then needed to be true equality. so he asked he for that he almost begged his audience for that. so frederick died 20th of february 1895 we now know he was 77 years old that day as was appropriate. he had attended a meeting in washington for women's suffrage and while there he got a standing ovation. he came back to have dinner with his wife before going back to the meeting and on leaving the house in the hall. he was telling his wife helen about the day's proceedings. and she said he came very animated and then he fell to his knees and she thought he was play acting because he had a great scent of human. he l

and they actually think about john brown, who we talked about two or three weeks ago, how john brown wanted to take an army into the south and free the slaves. and they come up with a plan modeled after john brown where they will take what douglass called a band of scouts into the south and basically tell the slaves, run away now, get to the north now while they're still a republican in office. fortunately nothing had become of this plan or lincoln's blind memorandum because things would take a turn for the better in about one week after douglas's meeting. but douglas later wrote about this. he said this. what lincoln said on this day showed a deeper moral conviction against slavery than i had ever seen before in anything spoken or written by him. in this meeting with lincoln really gave douglas an intense appreciation for lincoln as an antislavery president. the democrats had planned to hold their convention in the early summer of 1864, but they saw how bad things were going that they thought, let's postpone it so we can wait and see how bad things get, then we will nominate our can

and the anecdote oftentimes used was john brown witnessing a slave being beaten brutally with a shovel that inspired him in his anti-slavery movement. i like to use that example because it instilled in their minds that you can't forget that slavery was a violent system and you have to not forget. the thing is i could also notice it wasn't so much effective on the older kind of more a the tick teenage, high school kid. in terms of presenting this to children, what kind of strategies or examples do you think are more effective? that's my question. >> well, christian used the term universal when talking about the color exhibit. i would talk about that. what can they relate to in their own life. imagine your own parents being sent away to another place. those types of scenarios do well. >> she brought that up. nancy's husband is the student program director at montpelier. >> told you we were friends. >> what she described is a program he just created with students. that's what they do, focus on universal experiences that could go back and forth through the time periods. >> thank you. >> th

and the anecdote that's oftentimes used was about john brown witnessing a slave being beaten brutally with a shovel and how that inspired him in his anti-slavery movement. anyway, i like to use that example because it instilled upon their minds the idea that you can't forget that slavery was an inherently violent system and that that's something you have to not forget. and the thing is that i could also notice it wasn't so much effective on the older, more aptathetic teenage high school type kids. so i was wondering in terms of presenting this kind of stuff to children, what kind much strategies or examples do you think is more effective? i guess that's my question. >> thanks. >> chris used the term universal. i would absolutely agree with that. what are things they can relate to in their own life. in our case, imagine your own parents being sent away to another place you don't know for how long, how would you feel? those type of scenarios seem to do well. but go ahead. >> she just brought that up. nancy's husband is the student program director at montpelier, so -- >> we're good frie

can see the sculptures in the park in washington d.c., and you'll see his sculpture at -- one of john brown, and those prominently if you've ever been to colonial williamsburg, you will find in front of the college of william and mary, the statue of governor -- lord bonnet. the original statue, it was a little bit worse for wear in 1958. so it was put on file display in a portion of the library. . so this was dedicated in the fall of 1993, and it's interesting to watch people, who have been sea and to visit this magnificent statue. that sculpture was dedicated in 2015, and just watching gordon work and been aware of the intensity in which he understands a person to be sculpted it made it that it would be a wise idea that we talk to someone who physically and visually understands the character that we are starting today. so without further do i would like to introduce gordon kray sculpture wrist. thank you richard, thank you very much. it is just like old times here i'm going to be talking about portraying monroe, and specifically this is through the vehicle of the new monroe monument that t

at harpers ferry in honor of john brown. and most prominently, if you've been to colonial williamsburg, at one end, you will find in front of a red building, we call it at william & mary, the statue of governor botetourt. the original statue dedicated just before the american revolution. it was a little worse for wear by 1950, so it was put on display at the museum portion of the library at the college of william & mary. for a long time it has been [ inaudible ]. this was dedicated in the fall of 1993. it's interesting to watch people who have been walking by looking at this statue. the sculpture of james monroe was dedicated in april of 2015, and watching gordon work and being aware of the intensity with which he understands the person who he is sculpting, it occurred to me it would be a wise idea on such a festivity as this that we talk to someone who had to come to physically, visually understand the character of james monroe. so without further ado, it's a real pleasure to introduce sculptor gordon kray.

my job was to teach middle schoolers about slavery and the anecdote that i often used was about john browng a slave being beaten brutally with a shovel and aspired him in his anti slavery movement. i like to use that example because i wouldn't stop on their minds that you can't forget that slavery was an inherently violent system and something you have to not forget. and that thing is, i could also notice it wasn't so much effective on the older, apathetic teenage, high school type kids. i was just wondering in terms of presenting this to children, what kind of strategies or examples do you think are most effective. that's my question. >> christian use the term universal, and i would agree with that. they are things that they can really do in their own life, in our case imagine your own parents being sent away to another place that you don't know how far along. those type of scenarios do well. >> she just brought that up, nancy's husband is the student program director at montpelier. >> we are all good friends. >> so what's she just described is a program he just created for his students i

. >> joining us now is delores jones-brown, founder of the john jay center on race, crime and justice equity, she is a former prosecutor. ms. jones-brown, thank you for joining us today. there is a concept in policing that is not well understood from those of us who get our information, you know, from tv shows, but it's care in custody. when someone is in your custody, when you have taken someone into your custody, whether or not they are thought to be criminal or not, you are as police responsible for their care as well, and the prosecution is arguing that these police officers, including derek chauvin, had no regard for the care of mr. floyd. >> and i think that the police department agrees with that concept, and i think that even the defense attorney for officer chauvin agrees with that concept, and that is why his defense is going to be that his action did not cause george floyd's death, that it was the drugs in mr. floyd's system, his injury to himself while he was in the patrol car, and that, and his prior medical treatment is all of that, or medical conditions, all of that cont

john: jason, in st. louis, the michael brown case in ferguson, a flashpoint in this whole issue.s been the reaction in st. louis? it's jason: been a reaction of relief and a lot of surprise. with the michael brown case, there was never any sort of trial on a state or federal level. to see a police officer be guilty of a litany of charges for killing on unarmed black man, i think a lot of activists are not used to that sort of thing. st. louis and the region have changed quite a bit since 2014 when michael brown was killed by a police officer, both politically and policy wise, but while they feel this does bring a sense of closure to one incident, there's a lot of ways to go to engender trust between police departments here and around the region. john: in ferguson last year in the midst of the protes over the george floyd death, ferguson elected its first black mayor. st. louis elected its first black mayor. has this changed people's attitudes? is there hope there is going to be a greater connection between communities and city hall? jason: certainly, there is hope. one thing peop
