lexington, kentucky. one year before that night in the bar. a house where students lived. and the music and laughter and chatter of a birthday party swelled and ebbed and drifted in and out of the evening air. >> it wasn't a huge party. it was just a low-key party with some good friends. >> they were about to be seniors, the young men who'd rented the place, who'd hosted the party. >> we had a group of guys, four guys that got along extremely well. >> they were big men on campus. they played football. the university of kentucky's beloved wildcats. antonio o'ferral was a quarterback. >> in lexington, kentucky if you play for the cats, you're pretty much a well-known entity. >> the birthday boy, 21 years old, was a true rarity, a wildcats walk-on. he had no scholarship, no invitation, he'd just showed up and tried out for the team. and over three years of hard work he had earned a starting position. >> here we go! >> trent digiuro, gentle giant. >> you know, everybody called him a big teddy bear. he was the great protector of all of our friends. >> the party was sweet, infor

but at lexington, ten people were killed. and more, conquered, many more, as the british made their way home. and so many new englander's, what turned them from this rational calculation of, oh no, we don't want to pay the circuit tax, we don't want to pay the stamp tax, and they got rid of the stamp tax, one of the trigger tax, and we don't want to have the tax on tv, so we will put the tee -- those are kind of rational calculations about how we can get back to the good times we had in 1762. what drove those people from wanting to get back to the good old days to wanting to be a separate nation, many, many factors, of course. but the biggest factor in new england was the battle of lexington they conquered. that raises the question, what's the south's version of the battle of lexington they conquered? and i would say, the answer to that is done more emancipation proclamation. lord doug moore was the last royal governor of virginia and in 1775, he was massively outnumbered. that is, there were a few whites in virginia who were

galvanized by what had happened at lexington and concord in april of 1775, tom paine would write common sense to persuade ordinary americans that they should declare their independence from britain. as he was writing that pin pamphlet, in the fall of 1775, tensions with britain were escalating quickly. popular emotions had been aroused not only by the 1773 t act and the 1774 coercive act that followed it, but more recently by the battles at lexington and concord and that bunker hill. there was a lot of anger and confusion in the air as he was writing it. although, to be clear, no one was talking openly yet about independents. not until tom paine's pamphlet burst on the scene. so, tom paine is going to be one of the first people to make a very public argument that all colonial grievances should be focused on achieving independence, not reconciliation, not better terms and conditions but independents. so, it's going to matter. that spent some time now examining how tom paine builds the case for independents in the pages of that pamphlet, common sense. and bear in mind that i paine's great

he goes to lexington. one of his generals wrote and said it's great that you got lead to become a president, he's a great figurehead, don't give him any work, just put him on the letterhead and let him be the figurehead of the college. you know something? the trustees became figureheads. robert e. lee ran the place. and he re-writes the curriculum from top to bottom and he basically sidelines the old classical curriculum. he starts bringing in modern subjects. he brings in mechanical engineering and journalism and not only that but he does away with the student code of conduct. he now says to all students that the interviews -- he interviews every student who comes to washington college. he says, there's no code of conduct here. the only thing we expect a view is that you will behave as a gentlemen. doesn't that sound generous? no. that means robert e. lee is now the judge, jury and executioner of all student behavior. he takes control of everything in the college and another place that is the best fundrai

with fighting already underway at lexington and con concord and bunker hill, paine tells the readers that they should not make peace with england. reconciliation now, he says, is a dangerous doctrine. really? in 1776 did any sane person really think that a tiny clone colonial -- colonial militia could ever beat and banish the most powerful navy and significant army? it is madness. to think that. so why not make peace? safe in the knowledge that, look, all the colonists' grievances against england -- as time passed. why not make peace? the colonists' debts would eventually get paid. the hated king would shortly die, and his own popular cabinet would eventually be forced from power. why not make peace? patch things up? wait it out? because paine won't let you see the problem like that. paine, in "common sense," puts the burden of proof elsewhere. not upon the colonists to prove why they should be independent. he placed the burden of proof upon the british to prove why americans should stay shackled to them for even a second longer. bold stuff from tom paine. so in these ways, "common s

the lexington fire department did over 60 rescues when they first hit water right here. mr. president, our kentucky national guard is the greatest guard in the country. [applause] gov. beshear: its members remind us that they are us. there -- they are kentuckians who get called to service and they never let us down. there was a young man in kentucky who had a jet ski and rescued more than 10 people. stories of neighbors rushing from their own flooded homes to their neighbors flooded home. i remember watching the cleanup. we have seen so many outstanding young kentuckians stepping up. it looks like one may have given his life in the service of others. we have seen a remarkable response because we kentuckians are remarkable people. we are here for you and we are not going anywhere. we will be here for you in the days and months ahead. we are here until every life and structures rebuilt. if you are not alone and we are not alone. we have seen an outpouring of unconditional love from across this country. millions of dollars and so many donations have come in. we need to ask, ple

he goes to lexington and its curious one of those generals wrote to the trustees and said it's greatat you got lee to become president. he's going to be great figure and don't give them any work to do this put them on the letterhead and you know something that trustees say where burt ely ran the place. he rewrites the curriculum from top to bottom and he basically sidelines the classic curriculum and he starts bringing in modern subjects. he brings in mechanical engineering and journalism and not only that but he does away with the student code of conduct. he now says to all students in the interviews every student who comes to washington college. he says there's no code of conduct here and the only thing we expect of you is that you will behave as a gentleman. that does not sound generous? no. that means robert e. lee is the judge jury and executioner of all student behavior. he takes control of everything in the college and you know the place where he's the best? fund-raising. cole edwards thought of robert lee as it dealt mental officer. he shakes the apple side of the trees espec

because the boston massacre happen it was one-off and only five people were killed but at lexington,ple were killed and more as a british made their way home so many from new england would turn them from his calculation of week don't want to pay the sugar tax the gas tax so we got rid of the gas tax minister protected all that so that sort of rational compilation about how can we get back the good times we had in 1762. and basically getting back to the good old days to wanting to be a separate nation and many factors of course the biggest factor of new england, is the battle of lexington and from that faces the question of whether self version conquered and i would say yesterday that is emancipation proclamation, he was the last governor of virginia and in 1775, he was massively outnumbered, there were few whites in virginia who were loyal to the crown the vast majority of free to people in virginia were supporting revolution because they were not ready for independence yet they were mad about all these changes that parliament was trying to impose. so he is outnumbered and he does no

this is dan in lexington kentucky. hello. >> >>thank you. means testing, subsidies, all of those things is taxation that takes from others -- from each according to his ability, to each according to their need. that is communism 101. the only way you have communism is through taxation so you can take my taxes and give it to someone else and it will never lower the prices on anything because i have no control over that. you do. thank you >> that is dan and kentucky. anything to that? >> i think that i understand the point. the way to think about insurance coverage is it works best when everyone is in the same pool. the idea of insurance is when you are healthy you pay a premium just like for your house to ensure your house against fire or flooding or your car against accidents and damage. you pay a premium even when you are not experiencing one of those events. the same is true in health care. you pay a premium when you're healthy and it is there when you are sick and need it. the most efficient way to do that is get everybody in the same poo

i am an associate professor at kentucky state university a quick drive from lexington and glad to be here. >> michael can you tell us about your book.criminal? >> it is my 11th book. i was a full professor at nyu of global liberal studies basically i was a leftist and a marxist and then the socialo justice accesses in the university started to alarming so i saw the totalitarian character of what they represented and they started to speak out against it first on twitter and then i was interviewed by the student newspaper and two days after the interview appeared i was forced into a leave of absence and driven off campus condemned by a committee called diversity equity and inclusion group in my academic career was ruined. so since then i have been writing i have written springtime for snowflakes which is a memoir that treats my journey to the academic left and back out and then google archipelago that treats the. same ideology as it permeates big tech and how it is a leftist authoritarian outfit and then the next book is beyond woke that i treat all of these subjects from big tech from

ah, the president at lexington who pays for that? certainly, pol positive, but your organization has been helping to monitor the poll that you saying that the process is free and fair as well. so far, so good. the process of speed wed free and fair of cause, issues around the turnout is shocking. looking at the man and the degree in which they are different. political coalitions campaigned. they are the kind of messaging and narrative. we have had lots over there. let me call them major post us of the don't post us in kenya presenting a higher ton out. but what we have right now, as has been projected to by the chairman of intimate indiana into independent electric boundaries. felicia i. e b c indicates that a little out was about 64.6 to 5.4 percent, which really is i shocker before we expected, where dia, hi, after not, of course, they are on the of who does security deed in some parts of the country and the fact that the key mistake that they came skids were unable to read some, some of the what does what presented themselves in t

to be emancipated is just flat-out historically illiterate and she said that snovember 1775 after lexington concorde after the boston tea party. after the stamp act and after the boston massacre after george washington was made head of the revolutionary army. it does not square. obviously it is meretricious. >> so people want to start the conversation because there isnv a blind spot with american history that people don't know. so if it comes up with the 1619 project maybe it's the first time somebody has heard it. who is at fault firm hiding that. >> but a lot of people just don't know and the way we teach history the way we teach history is probably cursory.as the reason we are arguing about it is that in 1984 orwell said he who controls the past controls the future andco he who controls the present controls the past. then we argue about the trajectory of a nation. host: one of the interesting points i had never considered about what we know about american history and what we don't is less the column america's last lynching that the government did have knowledge and documents but they wer

horse race, i think that is the vision that he had but he continued that same pattern so he goes to lexington as a progressive city at that time in kentucky and opened a store and was successful for a while but then white vigilantes pushed him out. he then went to the gold rush before almost everybody and made it a fortune, $90,000, which is many millions in today's dollars, moved to cincinnati which is the end of the underground railroad and invested in businesses that created everything from grocery stores to poverty parlors. two racehorses in europe and bring american horses out all over the continent and then returns to become a civil rights leader. you get a vision of what the country could have been like and what had a man like that been given a chance had something not happened but become the law of the land. it's striking. tell us what happened at the end of his life after that devastating supreme court decision. he wrote he became a leading politician in ohio and at the time it was the difference between republicans winning and losing ohio which was the most important state at that t

so the first shot to the revolutionary war were fired and lexington and concord and april 7 to 75 the battle of bunker hill a patriot victory was thought a few months later. so in the declaration of independence thomas jefferson wrote the famous words, we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. in our class today, we're going to think about how this original and most fundamental statement of rights came true for disabled americans in the decades after the revolution. so word disabled people able to access these basic ideals of freedom and equality. were they able to reap the promises of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness? and importantly, you know, how did gender race in class change the equation so were some disabled people able to access these rights and not others. we will also importantly consider how disabled people. faced with legal political and social barriers how they fought back and fought for greater equali
