it's caroled to over into the new world and carried over violently where in new york city new york city, orangemen would march through irish catholic sections of the city kind of rubbing their face in it, and riots ensued. that's an example of how old world resentments carried over, but tweed is representative of the possibilities of american life. most of his followers in politics were, in fact, eye -- irish catholics. tweed realized that he was in this cosmopolitan city, many different ethnic groups. ethnic groups also could vote, and you don't get votes by alienating people or dragging up old battles. so he was, tweed -- though by native anglo perspective was a little more american by virtue of being presbyterian -- nonetheless, kind of opened up to the catholic community, especially the irish catholic community. and we see this in his inner circle, the so-called tweed ring that is associated, again, with this, with this corruption. the next image i have sent out to you is of that of the tweed ring. you see a ring of people all accusing the other person of corruption. but there are f

he was just very interested in bringing money into the coffers of new york city. now, of course he's not doing this publicly at least, simply to enrich himself. why are people giving all of this money to the treasury of new york city, to pay for building projects. this is a city that is growing like every city in the 19th century new york, more than any other. so the city is growing, it needs roads, it needs buildings, it needs a lot of stuff. that's true. but how the stuff was built was how tweed enriched himself. so he's dealing with other people's money, borrowed funds. how does he make himself rich, does he simply stick it in his pocket, and kind of straight embezzlement? that would be a little too easy, and a little too easy to be caught at. his typical call method was simply to pad building contracts. so say a building, you know, you talk to the contract, and the building would cost maybe $10,000 in $1,870 to build. so tweed says, give me a bill for $20,000, and you'll get your $10,000, you know, what you expect, and then me and my buddies will divide the oth

i'm a new yorker and i believe that new york is more than you know, the old id of the city on the hill. new york is really what america is about. and and there is a tragedy inherent in a big metropolis. there are all the stories of the chance has gone by mistakes or the bad childhood, bad choices or just bad luck. and that's something that any great metropolis contents what me. but there's something more here that you could have a loving family, a career money set aside. and you could still end up in a mass grave on an island, off limits to the public buried by inmates paid $0.50 an hour. oh, i me. ah, when rises in from the sound carrying the clang of the bell bowing nearby, sidney island tolling its fitful warning. ah all around is desolate, sad. no kind hand decorate these graves with proteins of love and remembrance. i am even a headstone to show, whereas in turn was once a human be oh my baby was already sick, so i already knew that there was a 5050 chance of him living or diane gave birth to him. i didn't have the financial to be able to bury him and stuff. so the hospital gave m

new york city forces monster. you have to fight you have to actually rush, hold with the city in order to just get the very basic necessity of life. ah. then so the idea of the city having something on its conscience, this is rather small blot, frankly. i mean, with all honor to the dead they are dead are. mm i think that city is always wanted to forget about hold island. city is wanted to forget about the people who are buried there. it's wanted to forget about the fact that there is a potter's field that there is a place where difficult stories are hidden. mm. new york city is celebrated as the place where anyone can achieve their dreams of but those dreams haven't been achieved by everyone. ah, it's true of people who are totally away digging out the titles for subways, we're building our skyscrapers is true of people who have wound up homeless or because a society shunned them as happened during the aids epidemic. mm . those stories might not be flattering to tell even more. it might tell us things about our p
