the new york public library, the records at the ford foundation, i have used records at the national archives as well, but they were not the richest records that i found. it was going into people's personal papers, and some people collected and kept in their actuall records government documents that are not available at the national archive, and it is really important to branch out and look for some of these other kinds of collections where the people you things thatollected are quite amazing and that could be oral histories and newspapers, of course, as well. >> i would add one more thing, which is part of what we need to do is maybe expand from the state department to the state, especially if you work on the 20th century, the proliferation of state power necessarily and men,both women people of all genders, to sort of engaged with the state. and you can find them writing petitions, very ordinary people who do not otherwise appear in historical records are suddenly there and making arguments about power, often because they want access to resources. what that means is it sometimes requires yo

, thanks to a nixon historian who reported saying when the national archives originally released the tape of this conversation back in 2000, the racist portion was apparently withheld to protect reagan's privacy. for almost 20 years we didn't have this pretty important piece of information about how ronald reagan thought about the world. ronald reagan the conservative hero who's largely responsible for popularizing the term and concept of the welfare queen. we have had tapes of nixon saying extremely racist things for years. he was also a notorious violent anti-semite. it's not just these two men. the racial politics of the post-goldwater conservative movement have been pretty bad for decades before trump ever got into the white house. the old two-step was these kind of things, the things reagan and nixon said were said behind the scenes and they used code out in public. donald trump, he just tweets it all out. as presidential candidate marianne williamson called it, that is the dark psychic force of trumpism. >> this is part of the dark underbelly of american society. the racism
