this is a volume of poems published in london in 1773 by a young woman named phyllis wheatley who is the first published african-american poet in american history. phyllis wheatly had been enslaved the west coast of afri africa probably in senegal and brought to the new world in the 1750s. as a young girl maybe about 8 years old. she eventually was sold to a family by the name of wheatley in massachusetts. and the daughter in the family taught her to read and write. and she had a real natural talent for writing verse. and, of course, at the time this was an extraordinary development. so much so that there were those that she began publishing pieces in the newspaper and they began to be circulated and was actually a trial held in boston where people like john hancock and other significant figures in the community were brought together to basically put her on trial, ask her questions. broug together to basically put her on trial, ask her questions, to try to determine if it was possible that this african-american woman could have written poetry like this. of course she passed. and they

phyllis diller switched it around. it was about her horrible husband. >> fang, that's my husband. he went to the dentist the other day, the dentist told him, he's got the worst set of tooth he's ever saw in his life. >> for a woman to go on stage and complain about that, it was emancipation, in a way. >> you sure you're a marriage counselor? >> of course, don't i have a sympathetic face? >> well, your face has my sympathy. >> the self-deprecating woman was very popular in the comedy world. >> back from the shop where she's just had her head tarred and feathered, here is miss phyllis diller! >> i think when it came to women doing comedy, certainly stand-up, you had to dress in a way that was crazy. you had to work within the confines of what guys would accept you doing. >> is that all right? i just found it in the dressing room and it fell out. >> you're basically saying, i'm coming up on stage, don't look at me as a woman, look at me as a funny person. >> just looking at the two outfits here, mom's and woody's. >> i wo

phyllis, good morning. caller: hi, pedro. what i am calling about is the illegal immigration. a lot of it is our federal government's problem. , a lot of people that they put into our government, our military should not be letting illegals into our military, but they do. they should not let illegals into the border patrol to help the cartels, but sometimes that because they have not checked out the illegals' pap erwork. all i am saying is we have illegals in all sector of our government. that is the reason -- like, obama took, like, a million people so that they could vote for hillary clinton. i don't understand anything about that. to me, i think the government is the big problem, too, by being so political. host: new mexico, independent line. don, you are up. caller: and i can make a comment about the building of the border wall. ,e are at the rio grande river at the border between mexico and the united states. the wall cannot be built without the permission of mexico. , thereson for this is are agreements under the international boundary and water commission that regulates
