the north carolinians have participated in pickens charges as part of the attacking force. there was this again and again after the southern newspapers after the war. they would write their own histories about it. they would eventually come up with a state motto after the war. they show the north carolina's were in front of the thing. day doarolinians to this not generally call the attack of july 3 pickens charge. they don't to give it any more due than he has artie got in. ist they prefer to call it -- >> the sculptor for this particular monument is a fellow named gotten. there is this massive structure out there in the decoders called mount rushmore. he is also famous for the bust of president lincoln in the u.s. capitol building. what he will do is he will use actual photographs of models ands as the that is that added sense of realism, there's a lot of fluidity in movement here. it is just a very striking monument. >> c-span, where history unfolds daily. in 1979, c-span was created as a public service by america's cable-television companies. it is brought to you today b

but those north carolinian republicans or centrist democrats or whatever they would become would notbe republicans had they stayed in new york city and continued to work for their company in their culture potentially. >> right. and they wouldn't even be, if they send their kids to the colleges and universities that the aspiring class wants to send their kids to, their kids will also change. i mean, there isn't this intense culturallization, you know, to fit in is to, you know, you want to at least be able to talk about what you listen to on npr on the way ohm home. if you are talking about that, there's a whole sort of mindset and world view that comes with that. i wanted to ask you about because, i mean, my family -- i come from a long line of back office workers in finance and in law in new york. and those people never lived in manhattan. or they didn't live in manhattan for a very, very long time. i mean, if you wanted to -- if you were -- first of all, those back office jobs didn't go from manhattan to charlotte, i think they probably went from manhattan in the '70s to jersey cit

north carolinians take care of damage in north carolina. there are some kinds of damage that are not that severe that other states should take care of. in general i'm in favor of federalism. if he can become the state level, it should be done at the state level. when we are talking about r damagedamage -- weathe the government needs to get involved in is heavy damage like hurricane katrina or sandy. i think all 320 million americans are in this together and we need help. host: good morning, linda. caller: good morning. when people are in tornado areas or wildfires or mudslides, pretty much anything but floods, are there low-interest federal loans they can apply for to rebuild which would basically be the same thing as flood insurance? -- rebuildingng via low-interest federal loans. i do believe we are all in this together. i think the flood program initially started back when most of our commerce and our business was done in areas that were prone to flooding. economically it made sense for all of us together in the country, all american cit

it actually reminds of when another north carolinian -- well, when a north carolinian irskin bowls became to then president bill clinton. he went in there and installed, you know, a very regiment routine where people had to make appointments. they couldn't warned in and out of the oval office. and gave some structure to the white house that was needed. so far i think it's been a good week. you don't often have a governor from the other party make a party switch and come to your party. that's certainly big for republicans and president trump. so so far so good. >> so do you think, chris, that this is really going to make a difference? we know this is happening in the white house, but is this going to make a difference in the front of the house? basically the way that the president acts and conducts himself, especially since reportedly the general is not trying to manage the president as much as he's going to manage those trying to see the president. and he's not taking twitter away. >> well, it's not going to make much of a difference unless john kelly becomes the president of the united s

later or have kids later were not involved in side of the this is just a question with that north carolinian republicans but they were centrist democrats they would not be republicans so if they send their kids to the college's and universities and that is to fit in. you want to talk about listening to npr of the way home with that mind set world view but i come from a long line of workers in new york they get live in manhattan for very long time but first of all, their with from manhattan to charlotte may be in the '70s you jersey city then touche charlotte but it was very hard to leave a middle-class family life in manhattan. but it seems with all the talk of how to revitalize the major richer politician areas they begin with public schools. so that is extraordinarily selective if you make 130,000 and one to to raise a family that did say revolution so i don't see that happening. >> so did is similar to immigration radically transformed however they change the culture of our country so is a two-way street and guided rita prospect for change but we are doomed of the high end people of those

restaurant where my parents in durham, north carolina were serving traditional japanese food to this north carolinianommunity, asian in the south and buddhist in the bible belt and, you know, these are things i talk about a lot in my art. ♪ ♪ you just don't feel like you belong here. anywhere i am, they're like, oh we're diverse now because the asian guy's with us, and i think my drive came from just a very deep place of insecurity, and needing validation from strangers, and i think that's where my love for the stage really began. working with youth and doing workshops and facilitating performance workshops and sort of safe spaces for young people to cultivate their voice is like the greatest gift in the world. there's always a student that reads and the teacher is like, you know, i've never heard him say anything, i've never gotten that student to speak about anything. it changes the dynamic of the classroom, it changes the culture of vulnerability in young spaces. i wanted to acknowledge this place in my life that i've felt like, i was proud of myself and all of the things that i've done up to this

north carolinians getting ready to make an attack.he orders his men to draw sabres and prepare to make a mounted charge. it is all done with a great deao of noise, withn. bugles and everything. all of that commotion attracts the attention of james keith marshall, the colonel of the 52nd north carolina who sees the yankee troops preparing to make a mounted charge. what does he do? hehe orders his soldiers to hal and form a square. why do you form squares? cavalry horses won't charge a hollow square, plus you can deflect them. the 52nd north carolina deploys in a square out there. their movement to do that is in turn spotted by colonel biddle i who orders his men to fall back from mcpherson's ridge to position on seminary ridge. hap this mounted -- feinted mountedn charge that never even happened saves an entire division of the first corps of the army of potomac from getting its flank welled up. they fall back to position along seminary ridge. they take up a position with the gamble's brigade at the far southern flank where they beging

were to see things like what we saw in durham, north carolina that way, i think those people would come out of state. i don't think we would see south caroliniansg that way. >> sreenivasan: shakem, what about the people that are further on the fringe from your position who are going to look at you and say, you know what? you've sold out, just by shaking this man's hand, you're not one of us anymore. james, i want you to answer the same question. >> this is what i say. in 2015 when the confederate flag came down after we fought so hard to get that to come down, we see the murder rate increasing and education continued to remain at the bottom. south carolina is last in education. when you begin to look at the economic conditions that are prevalent in this city you see that our cities are urban -- our urban communities are being starved of resources. so if what you're telling me i'm selling out because, i'm telling you don't go to jail for pulling down a statue, then i think the problem is with you and we need to actually refocus our energy and intelligence on getting solutions that are going to raise the economic level of black people here in thi

north korea and clock is ticking. i hats off to my fellow south carolinian nikki haley accomplished at the u.n.ons we've seen by the u.n. security council. i would caution our viewers go back to a few years 2012. we've seen that movie before with china. back in 2012 they supported u.n. security council sanctions against north korea while at the same time helping, having a chinese bank helping iranians launder money through a chinese bank for north korean and nuclear missile test. it comes to this. we know they have the ballistic missile capability. they have had this capability for some time. they have been in cahoots and in bed with the iranians sharing this technology back and forth. i think it all comes down to our intelligence on that miniaturized nuclear warhead. we know they have the design package, iranians have the designed package of infamous dr. a.q. khan from pakistan. how close are they to miniature rising that nuclear warhead so that icbm can accommodate it? connell: we're told they are close. closer than ever hitting parts of united states. if all that is true, what would it take?

were sent to support him did not jobs.ir and sometimes they would very pointedly point to the north carolinians as the men who had supported the virginians and allowed the virginians to fall numbers.reat well, the north carolinians had participated in the charge as part of the attacking force. not like being called supports and they certainedly thelike being insulted with charge that they had not done anything less than their fullest duty. and would fight this over over again in the southern newspapers after the war. their own start magazines and journals. they would write their own it.ories about they would actually come up with motto after the war to show that north carolinians were in the front of things. this day donians to not generally call the attack of july 3rd picket's charge. to give picket anymore due than he's already gotten. to cally prefer instead it is the tremble assault named the commanders of north led this charge. or of this -- work in the dakotas called mount rushmore. also famous for the bust of resident lincoln in the u.s. capitol building. but what he'll do is he'll use p
