and that was where lexington stood stud, to such great success. he had a long life and was very well cared for, which was a good thing. host: geraldine brooks won the pulitzer prize in 2006. cooper, bridgeton, new jersey. please go ahead with your question or comment. caller: i'm just wondering, what really wanted -- what made you want to write this book in the first place? i am an avid reader and a curious guy. you know, out here in new jersey. [laughter] host: thank you, sir. we will get an answer. ms. brooks: yeah, cooper, i wanted to write this book -- i will tell you, because most young girls become horse crazy at five or 15, which is a sensible age to do that. i became horse-crazy at 50. i don't recommend taking up writing at 50, but that is what happened to me. i had an experience on a trail ride in the next thing i knew i had a horse of my own. all i wanted to think about was the horse. how to care for the horse, how to be a better writer, everything about it. i wasn't getting any work done in my writing life because i was thinking about t

and described visit if it, i wonderful painting titled lexington being led up by his groom. a somebody who has a horse and loves horses, i know the person who has the closest relationship with the horse is not the owner, have the trainer, not the jockey, it is the groom whose there first thing in the morning feeding, brushing, caring for the horses ailments and knows the horse and has the strongest bond so i knew i wanted the story to center on the relationship between he and his horse. >> best selling author jolting brooks, who will give you a chance to call in and talk. the numbers are on the screen. we will try to work in a few calls in a minute. i'm getting a bit of noise in my earpiece right now of a phone taking up. how long have you been working on the horse. >> i started working on it -- i heard about it before i started working on it but it took me about seven years to write it. >> i apologize, i'm having a little bit of audio trouble. >> i'm getting it, to. >> your smoother than i am. you spent about seven years? >> yes, this is the longest book to write. some of i

a lot can be traced back to lexington. we know a lot more about the horse and the horses genealogy than the enslaved men who trained the horse. generally could trace their lineage only back to generations that they had carried these horses all the way. >> many generations. what do you find on lexington owner. his first earner, this is a little murky. he earned his racing qualities. that may have been a means of letting the black owner of a race horse. a black man was not allowed to own a race horse that raced on the track. he had been an ob/gyn. they did not call it in those days. he actually delivered mary todd lincoln. he had the horse and was the owner for its first successful races. richard penbrooke who owned the race horse in new orleans and he was a flamboyant entrepreneur. a riverboat gambler and made a fortune. he was the one who promoted the races to the point that 30,000 people would show up in new orleansw. presidents came to watch the races and it was a huge huge celebration. he sold the horse back in kentucky

now john parker, captain john parker commanded the minutemen on lexington green that fateful day in 1775 when i first saw this horn, i, you know, years ago with bill, i thought oh, my god, it was on lexington green in april of 1775. so dove into that and. turns out it was only a 25% chance because there were four or john parker's in eastern mass at that time. this is a case of whether the glass is half full or half empty. now horns were the on the horns were drawn from different different beliefs, attitudes, happiness, sadness like what? see on the screen here, their surroundings and their imagined nations are what were the foundation of these the these depict pieces of diary events, maps, the sun and the moon floor fish, birds, monsters of various kinds portray its leaders, leaders, soldiers ships, forts, clocks, heraldry more and more, you'll see other kinds of carving to a like a rigged ship. now, in this way, the powder horns are a canvas for the observed wonders that a soldier saw along the way and let's imagine that you were from the wyoming valley or some inland place and you were

but now washington had ridden to philadelphia, not knowing about lexington and concord.so he'd packed his bags at mount vernon and arrived in philadelphia. he did, however, bring a uniform along, which people noted and this was to indicate his willingness, if necessary, to to take up a leadership position. maybe he was advocates using his his availability should should the job come up. but he did not pack his camping equipment. and he actually went to one of the only, i think, three letters that have survived between washington and martha washington, because in the period when a spouse died, it was customary for the widow or the widower to burn the correspondence that was considered private. and martha destroyed all of the letters from george washington, but several of them survived, one of them in a little desk that belonged to her. that's a tudor place in georgetown outside of washington, d.c. now. and it's the letter washington wrote to her, basically telling martha he was not going to be coming home from philadelphia, but rather going to to take command of the army.

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

he talked about different areas and places for example he was invited to lexington green where people incident that happened at the battle of lexington green. that is where the first shots of the american revolution happened. for those who are unfamiliar. and so it was sort of meandering, what we heard from him. but he was making some very clear points to the jury, trying to set up that he is showing them that he's not racist, he's telling them that he is not anti-anything. and he talked about going for exam example going to ferguson, missouri, in the death of michael brown, shot by a ferguson, missouri police and there were huge protests after that happened there. he only went there to help protect businesses. he mentioned that they were black businesses. so he's setting the scene personally to show his personal side, to show if you will his soft side. i don't think i have ever seen ste stewart rhodes or talking to him or choked up the way he has on the stand in front of jury. so clearly they're trying to set a scene about who he is personally as they go forward. they have not yet go

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

"thought criminal" is my 11th book. i was a professor, full professor at nyu in global liberal studies, and i was basically a leftist, a marxist, and then then social justice excesses in the university started to alarm me. and i saw this sort of totalitarian character of what represented, and i asked her to speak out against it on twitter first and then i was interviewed by the student newspaper there, and two days after the interview appeared i was pressured into a force, forced into a leave of absence and driven off-campus, condemned by committee called diversity equity and inclusion group, and effectively academic career was ruined. so since thenn i've been writin, i have written springtime for snowflakes coming which is a memoir that treats my journey through the b academic left and back out. and

breeders' cup is in lexington, the horse racing there, and winds across parts.es 40 to 60 miles an hour. that could bring down power lines or trees. if you are out and about today, a good idea to have an app on your phone or look at the radar because here is 2:00. the rain all the way from the great lakes right on down to the gulf. move you ahead until tomorrow morning, there are a few showers to the east there. now, if you are going to get into the new york city marathon or even watch it, there could be a few showers, but not much. most of that will be drying out by the time this weather gets to new york city. most of the rain will be down to the south. that's br the humidity is. it's a little bit humid across parts of the gulf coast and that's where the heaviest rain will be. one more thing for our viewers out to the west. there is one heck of a good snowstorm coming down especially in higher elevations. places that really need it. we had over 50 large fires a few weeks ago in the pacific northwest. that number is down significantly. we will take the rain. we'

and in the south there we have some moderate to heavy conditions. 17 though, is a mess from lexington reservoir all the way down into the valley because of some earlier issues, so you know we haven't had rain for a while. some people, not you. not me. not steve. as we drive. get to steve over people , not you. not me. not you at home, that other guy drives like an idiot. when it rains. that other guy sounds, you know, you see him coming in your room, rear view mirror driving too fast guy. yeah, that other guy, all right, so we'll get to it here. november rain has arrived in an active pattern is sure looking like it's shaping up to take us into probably well past the 10th. maybe so. rain is today. windy and cold. i'm just telling you, i'm telling you, listen, look. it's going to get cold around here tomorrow, and there will be some scattered showers and low snow levels as we head into tomorrow. what's interesting about this is their heavier total. san francisco, oakland south and north doesn't mean it's right. but there's going to be a pretty vigorous front coming through here late mor

he drew attention where he said, this is lexington and concords, first shots fired against tyranny.yranny will follow in the aftermath of the biden swear-in on january 20th. he later tried to walk that back and said he didn't condone the violence that took place at the capitol that wednesday. but it's not clear what kind of intersections the 22-year-old had with his grandfather, but we're learning more about the family. >> one thing to note, an aide for that lawmaker told "the new york times" he had been estranged from that branch of the family and had not seen his grandson for more than a decade. i'm sure more questions tabitha. >> certainly. >> and there's a standoff that happened back in 2021 of the suspect. i want you to look at it and get the response. >> this is your boy, i've got the [ bleep ] outside look at that, they've got a beat on me. you see that right there, [ bleep ] got their rifles out. if they breach i'm going to [ bleep ] blow it to holy hell. >> i've got to ask you, considering poppy just did the whole layout of the red flag law and you saw what happened there.

he said, quote, this is lexington and concord, first shots fired against tyranny. tyranny will follow in the aftermath of the biden swear in on january 20th. now he tried to take that back, also saying that did he not con drone violence on january 6th, that he did not condone violence in association with anything involving president biden. but again, jim, we don't know exactly how much interaction the suspect had with his grandfather and the last time they interacted and we reached out to the congressman's office and we have not heard back. jim. >> rosa flores in colorado springs, thank you so much. >>> well the governor of alabama has asked state's attorney general to pause all executions now and requested a top to bottom review of this state's capital punishment system after problems with multiple failed lethal infections. nick valencia has been following this for us. nick, tell us what led to this pause here and what is likely to happen now? >> kay ivey is wanting a top to bottom review but she's already made up her mind about one thing and that is the alabama d

he was also tsomeone who after january 6th said this is lexington and concord's first shots fired.the san diego tribune." it's important to say we don't know the relationship between these two, if they spoke regularly or if that philosophy was shared, but as we talked about at the top of this hour and last, the rhetoric from elected officials in this environment can be used as or interpreted as justification of some of the things that we're seeing. >> well, it's certainly true, victor, that overly heated, charged rhetoric by elected officials is never a good thing, particularly in the impact -- the disproportionate impact we see that it has on people that are already of extremist tendencies. so putting aside the family relation between the congressman and the shooter here because as you mentioned, we don't really know there's any sort of a significant connection between the two of them with respect to this crime, but in his role as a public official, he certainly should have been more conscious about the impact that his words can have, and particularly when -- let's call it for wha

the literary community inside of lexington, kentucky, knew of kentucky, kentucky in general is amazinge everywhere. >> you've said that poetry can make us as a nation become hole again. when have you known that to be true? >> i think there are moments. i don't think they're always long-lasting. i think there are moments. it's oftentimes in celebration. sometimes, it is in grief. the moments when all of us can put everything down, lay everything down for one minute and see ourselves and each other and remember, all right, okay. i am a human, you are human animal to. right, that's what we experience together, one breath, and one breath out. i think it's glimpses. i really hope that we can have more glimpses. >> i love that conversation. all or thanks again to ada limon for speaking with us. at the top of the hour, after trump's dinner with a white supremacist, will republicans keep bending the knee to the former president? i'll speak with the president of the human rights campaign, the uptake and lgbtq+ hate in the weeks since the strutting at club q in colorado. later, my conversation w
