first of all, nathaniel, seasons best, how is that? best of the big occasion is always important. unfortunately i had a couple of lines incorrect, but coming out with a medal is not bad. how much pressure did you feel going in there, facing the defending champion? no pressure at all, all the pressure to create is internal, i control what i put on the track at the end of the day, i can't control what other people do. i was happy with what was in my mind coming into this race. and in terms of building towards the world championship next year, how much confidence does this give you? gold in the four by 100 metres relay last year. give you? gold in the four by 100 metres relay last yearlj give you? gold in the four by 100 metres relay last year. i am starting to collect medals now, solidifying myself as a force to be reckoned with. it is about medals, and adam gemili is alongside you as well, i didn't watch out for you tonight, what was the problem?” well, i didn't watch out for you tonight, what was the problem? i had a toughjob, i had to

. >> i would agree and i would allude here to remark from nathaniel about the company and whether it is operating in syria or not. whether the company belongs to or is controlled or can be formed by the minister of defense area and she said that the minister of defense has their own forces do do the functions that are attributed to the pmc and i would agree here that the intelligence collections can be done by otherdepartments . the balkan facilities, also are quite interesting because it belongs to the tru and the construction works are done by the russian ministry of defense and training procedures about how they are trained, how they open trade in many ways resembles the trainings that they undergo or are underway by russian special military services and special military forces. can you hear me? >> you're saying they are not connected? >> i'm using the petrol company as an example. i'm thinking about the walden groups now. i was just saying about their preparation and their training which in many ways resembles preparation that is underwent, undergone by russian special military f

nathaniel rich wrote that story. he joins me now. great to have you with me.e piece. we'll use that as a spring board. in the decade that ran from 1979 to 1989, we had an excellent opportunity to solve the climate crisis. the world's major powers came within several signatures of endorsing a binding global framework to reduce carbon emissions far closer than we have come since. you go on to write about the conditions of success. what was that the right time to make folks take action? >> by 1979, you had a strong scientific consensus about the nature of the problem and a group of activists and scientists and congressional staffers started to try to bring the issue to the attention of first the white house, congress, later the public and finally the global conversation. and in that time, it was not a partisan issue. the oil and gas industry hadn't linked arms and started their campaigns of propaganda, buying off politicians and ultimately the entire republican party, and so you still had a moment there in which an agreement was possible and we almost got there b

>> well, the actors in this case would be doing exactly what nathani nathaniel, the head of facebook'surity policy, said there, which is they are taking steps to make sure that it is difficult to do forensics. they are masking their activity where they're coming from, how they are doing it, how they're setting up the accounts. they are taking steps to make sure that it is more and more difficult to conduct the types of forensics that would tie this activity back to malicious actor. >> so won't they just keep adjusting and won't they just keep changing and making it more difficult as facebook and google and twitter work to keep up with them and eliminate the threat? >> sure. i mean that's how it's always been in the cyber security field. as the malicious actors make a change and the defenders adjust, then the attackers adjust again. miss sandberg's comments about it being an arms race is a very apt analogy. >> i want you to listen to something that vice president mike pence said just yesterday here in new york. really pointing his finger back at the white house in which you work. you wo

pain went north up to new jersey where general nathaniel greene was headquartered.he volunteered to serve green as secretary. so, pain was in washington's retreat a cross new jersey and november of 1776. pain came under fire during that retreat. he said at one point he was giving exaggeration. it was probably true that enough cannonballs was over his head and he get use to the sound of it and didn't flinch. the other thing to mention was pain sold lots of copies of common sense, far more than any other pamphlet published during the coming of the revolution. now, we know as the results of some good historical work that he probably cannot publish quite as many copies of common sense that was once thought. but he did publish several thousands of them and could have made great deal of money off the book. he could have made the equivalents of $50000 a day. again, he could have made a good deal of money. but, pain gave away most of what he made to the continental army so they could buy gloves, blankets and whatever for those that were serving in the army. jefferson writes

henry knox and nathaniel green did want him on the staff, which he refused and that is how washington, you watch this guy run around the track, hey. you know, i want to have him on my team. so, basically through his daring efforts early, and through some of the pamphlets, he is getting known and then washington once he is on washington's step he has a chance to really flourish. other points or questions? yes, way in the back. >> when is this going to be on c-span? [ laughter ] >> i think that they said -- well, maybe two to four weeks or something like that. is that about right? >> we'll put it on our facebook page. if you follow us on facebook, we'll definitely put it on. >> although it sounds a little egotistical to comment, if you go c-span.org, if you type in my name, i have done five or six of my talks. if you just go c-span.org. it is dot org, isn't it? and type in peter henriques, you can see if i gave a talk on washington's last years or something you were interested in, you could see it that way. but keep coming. much better to see you in person rather than on, you know -- i

in july of one thousand nine hundred two derek hamilton was on trial for the murder of nathaniel cash hamilton has a big similarity with tyrone johnson's it came down to the alleged eyewitness testimony of one person in hamilton's case her name is. the police say smith aidid hamilton as the shooter but it isn't so simple when the defense doesn't know is there is actually the same person as the woman who called herself karen smith at the crime scene and told detective frank she didn't see the shooting. the fact that she gave two different names and two different versions of events would have raised serious red flags in trial about the reliability of her idea of hamilton as the killer. smith said you didn't do it. and then she went to the police station. and said you didn't do it so what transpired to make her change her testimony i don't know what happened in the prison because i was in the well i'm going to use what they said that according to jewish smith she said that she went to the prison did told us she was going to jail for murder she said i committed a crime. kids again she sai

nath nathaniel rich, writer at large of the article, thank you so much for being here tonight.d have happened to avert where we are now, and just how much of an impact, with trump in office for a year and a half now, what impact does that have long term on this issue? >> i'll do that as fast as possible. 1979, we had total scientific consensus about the issue and small group of scientists, politicians, and activists tried to move the issue, first to the white house and then to congress, and then to national public, and then there was a global treaty negotiated binding emissions reduction treaty, and at the end of the decade after an internal dog fight in the george h.w. bush white house, we dropped out of any kind of binding target, and so what did i learn, most shocking thing i think i learned is that basically every conversation that we are having about the issue was being held as early as 1979, 1980, so just me living this crisis over and over again. >> so what impact will the change in the emissions rules potentially have going forward? i mean, is it for people who are tryi

i really admire a lot of the guys like nathaniel philbrick and people who can turn their research into something that fascinate me, even if i'm not all that interested in the topic. >> this will sound flippant but it's true. those who inspired me to write narrative nonfiction for a larger audience, other academics who write books that are cure for insomnia. and i knew i didn't want to be one of those academics writing a book that will sit on the cold steel shelf of a library that ten years after it's been out you look in the book and see who check its out and it depresses you. and i can remember -- distinctly remember being here when i was a graduate student doing research, at the archives here, and running into drew fouts, retiring president of harvard, and bertram, wonderful historians and boldly went up to them and invited them out to dinner, and we're -- i'm in the back seat as we're driving down capital street and i just suddenly blurted out, i can't stand the academic history narrative. i want to fizzle with it. they both turned around and said, fizzle with it. do it. -- fizzle d

i'm nathaniel. i'm with democracy summer which i highly recommend you check out. [applause] >> my question is -- how do we as college age or soon to be college age kids deal with the potential radicalization of our peers? how do we block that and make sure that those aren't used by white supremacists? >> my name is hanna. i'm a democracy summer alum and rising senior. my question is very similar, but especially about student groups inviting these alt right white supremacist speakers on campuses to the swastikas i have seen on the bathroom stalls how do we as students combat this on our campus and especially how do -- what do we do when we get in a situation where these fellow student groups invite these speakers and how do we balance that with our 1st amendment rights? >> final question. >> mine is similar. how do we fight back? how do we defend justice effectively? what actions can we take to do it well not just with our peers but how can we help you even when we're younger? i'm only 15. how can we help you do that even though we're quite -- i wouldn't say we're

henry knox and nathaniel green did want him to be on their staff. and they refused. that's how washington heard of him, through that. and he just -- he was apparently the kind of person that is so exceptional, you know, you watch this guy run around the track, hey, you know, i want him on my team. so basically, through his daring efforts early and through some of his pamphlets he gets known. and then washington, once he is on washington's staff then he has a chance to really flourish. other points or questions? yes, in the back. >> when is this going to be on c-span? [ laughter ] >> i think they said -- maybe one of those two or four weeks or something like that? >> we will put it on our facebook page. if you follow us on facebook, watch that. >> although it sounds a little egotistical to comment, if you go c-span.org, if you type in my name, they have done five or six of my talk. if you go c-span -- it is.org, isn't it? and type in peter henriques. then you will see if i gave a talk on washington's last years or something like that, it is there. i remember put the l
