under tell you, the home plessis plessis. -- the lead alternately. -- you know, i could not agree witho a better [inaudible] rise of dictators. i'm not sure ever thought i'd be talking to, three days before midterm election. and yet here we are. [inaudible] more relevant. >> yeah [inaudible] democracy is on the ballot, and i'm worried about two states. political violence. unfortunately with the absorption of the january six republican party, and of the dean's gonna make the election. becoming the re-majority lawmakers. i don't know what happened to our democracy in that case. i think part whatever it is they're worried about casts, or the cost of eggs at the grocery store -- i wonder to your lines, what feels like a court tension between the [inaudible] and we can argue deeply immediate may not feel that white voters. >> i'm optimistic american sort of the right thing. if we don't have the democracy, if we lose our freedoms, elections, that it's not gonna matter often prosperous way. that's what's at stake this week. americans get their lives -- on the, and -- to preserve freedoms. are

and then to check the plessy case to court.nd then with the legislation to address the jim crow law. and struggling very much against the jim crow law in a case that was taken to the united states supreme court. >> isk wanted to ask one more question and then maybe we'll and fairly simple could you talk for a minute about music so many of us associate new orleans with music with jazz inin particular and you write about music in the book can you talk about the economy and its relationship to music over time? >> it is based because they have fill harmonics and all these things in the early years and that tammy hall was jazz but the same people so when they were driven through the white supremacist legislation one of the places they played music was tammy hallth because they the money that they would raise we go to the poor people and then the money would circulate so if and when you read the book you would see louis armstrong was discovered in those who came to economy haul were the first. >> did economy haul have members that we

[inaudible] plessis could still, change this doesn't track anyone. campaigning is always been donald trump's favorite part of politics because of all the eagle stroking that comes along with that. and he's hit the campaign trail pretty hard in several states in the lead up to this year's midterms. that's because he stands to benefit if republicans take control. so many election deniers that trump's lackeys will have an outsized influence in congress, and state housing across the country plessis. if a handful of officials in states split out of the efforts plessis, we would be in a different cote place right now and a different looking country. now they have a chance of replacing the people who brought up against his anti-democratic efforts to years ago and closely watched competitive races this year are in the seven states that trump's team targeted. if you remember -- a club of doug doocy went viral because he declined to take a call from then president trump as he was certifying arizona's election results. the officials ignored trump schemes in 202

they were very much against the jim crow law, and the plessy v.on decision for those of you don't know was a case that was taken to the united states supreme court to prevent separate but equal. it simply did not win. >> okay. and i wanted to ask one more question that, at the maybe we will and fairly soon, but i just wondered if you could talk for a minute about music. so many of us associate new orleans with music, with jazz in particular, and to write a lot about music in the book. can you talk a little bit about the economy and its relationship to music over time? >> sure. if you go to the new orleans jazz and heritage festival you'll see a tenth basin this particular hall because the economy have the music all the way through. they had philharmonic, opera, all the sinks in the early years in the last incarnation i was a music in the economy hall was a jazz. the same used to come together and support each other to build houses and educate each of us children come when they were driven out of jobs to white supremacists legislation, they played

plessy versus ferguson was in 1890.they were many more, hundreds of mutual aid associations by that time. many of them supported the case. the president of the economy society he was also a member of the citizens committee who were involved in taking the case to court. so the economy raised money for it and he says that i know many of you are in support of the legislation of the jim crow law. they were very much against the jim crow law. and the plessy versus ferguson for those who do not know was a case of a stake into united states supreme court to separate but equal. spent okay i want to ask omar question and then maybe we will end fairly soon. i just wondered if you could talk for a minute about music. so many of us associate new orleans with music, with jazz in particular. you write a lot about music in the book. can you talk a little bit about the economy and its relationship to music over time? be too sure pretty few go to the new orleans jazz and heritage festival he will find the economy to based on this partic

they were involved in taking the plessy case to court.at president is saying -- and many of you are in support of that legislation against the jim crow law. they were very much against the jim crow law and the plessy versus ferguson for those who don't know was a case taken to the united states supreme court to prevent separate but equal. okay, i wanted to ask one more question and maybe we will end it fairlyy soon. i wonder if you could talk for a minute about music. summative associate new orleans with music, jazz in particular. you write a lot about jazz inte the book. can you talk about the economy and its relationship to music over e time? >> sure pretty coach of the new orleans jazz and heritage festival ucf content. it's based on thisl particular hall. the economy of the musical all the way through all these things in the early years in the last incarnation that was of music indicating as children, were driven out of jobs with the legislation. they played music to make money. one of the places they played music was in economy hall.

wade and plessy. what's important for progressives to accomplish a similar breakthrough in the cause of economic opportunity. with a far-reaching and easily understood decision to oppose, not surprisingly, the on stoition roe v. wade, the opposition to plessy of course there was a positive side to that in boast cases. they found an important ruling that they could build a movement to oppose. so what's going to be the decision by the roberts court which we're going to build that movement on? i don't know what it is yet but i think there'll probably have to be one. my point is really quite simple. to change how the courts interpret the constitution we will first have to change the minds of enough americans who can mobilize to pressure the courts to change. thank you. [applause] >> i do want to say i think probably even a lot of lawyers done know about the final clause of article 5, they take it on a given that it's in the constitution and they don't know that you can't amend that part of the constitutio

we have seen elon musk himself promoting conspiracy theory about attack on into plessis's husband.t sends a signal to the kinds of people who have become embroiled in these conspiracy worlds and how the hate could escalate including on mainstream platforms like twitter. we will see what elon musk does about donald trump and if he decides to bring him back to the platform. >> donald trump has now weighed in on the paul pelosi attack with his own theory. he is usually influential figure in this whole ecosystem. >> he is and we saw it in the build-up to the 2020 election and we will see it with comments like this. the clues he leaves and the things he suggests or hints at go want to be used by these conspiracy movements to legitimize them to say this really didn't happen the way you think it did because someone who is powerful and important is telling us that it didn't happen that way. this is being picked up on the french social media platforms. we are seeing people drawing on that and expanding on and furthering those points. >> our next election is in israel. early exit polls sugge

reliever people talk about plessy input the decision to south africa. the only looking at the economy business at that it, as for the county environmental, the best is not even be discussed at the stage. 20 companies are said to be responsible for more than half of the global single use plastic waste. and none of them are in africa. and according to the 2021, plastic waste makers index in the global north that produces and creates this global plus think use crisis. an average american or a united kingdom citizen will produce about a 100 kilograms of plastic waste annually. now, what responsibility do they, bay, to this global wasteland they've created? this is mainly supposed to be less at the county. or because we don't death, most of the places that we supposed to have in south africa to make products. some africans have come up with a plan. then i'm with ira works with can sign is collections and not for profit company in the education space. they turn plastic into briggs and they saw this plastic from where ever we can get it at times. even buttonin

is that a plessis sticker -- place you stick her? bethany: you would be more likely to give her that platform. but i don't think that is the take away from last night. >> they cannot put her on armed services. education has traditionally been a place where parties but there hacks -- their hacks. >> she has a lot of experience and institutional knowledge. there is a real question of, given that there are a lot of targets they would want to do oversight on, if it is not somebody who is a seasoned committee chair, it would be interesting to see how that plays out. bethany: staffing matters as well. she has a good, stable, long-term staff. that is not nothing. you have to know how to work that process. or have somebody who keeps their team there. >> i have heard and i think this is true that marjorie taylor greene hired the former chief of staff for tom delay. you don't take that job just to talk about that. they have a lot to manage. nat: another question from the audience? >> good morning. i tweeted this question as well. what implicat

so, i'm super proud of, you and congratulations, we've been have a snow hue plessis in order to get peopley to vote which they should just have, it's ridiculous. one, on the good folks of georgia that even putting in the work to put back against brian continued voter approved in the queue so i think that'll absolutely some of those, but i think he's hitting the pavement. people of georgia think he's hitting the pavement. i think he's gonna pull this off. it's unfortunately to me, though, this is an. that will serve him and his people well. >> susan, talk to, me daniel talks, or at least all, about how democrats have been hitting the pavement. warnock has been hitting the pavement. voters have as well. been putting a lot of money, really, in the zone on man the democrats and republicans combined to form the new on and one former president ahead of election day on december six, i'm wondering, if you see republicans, white, repeated the kind of demonize early voting. right? one reason is to bolster the by the former president. it's not putting all in these elections. as more folks wanting to

plessy versus ferguson and all of that. so back lash. all the way to the 20th century and urban league founded backlash then you get to the civil rights era were brown versus board of education, sit ins by students, trayvon martin luther king emerges boycott, backlash. we start seeing after the civil rights and the voting rights act the backlash comes, don't forget 64 civil rights act. sixty-five voting rights act. sixty-eight the open housing act. than all all ofol a sudden have riots and police brutality. in the backlash nixon got elected that your and 68 should. the end of the 60s always talk about civil rights so fast forward to your question we get a black president, barack obama 2008 reelected in 2012. backlash donald trump. i knew there be a backlash after obama got in i didn't know will be donald trump anything other than presidential.re but there is always a backlash. and you have to be prepared for a backlash which is never let your guard down for a quick six next question talks about the filibuster which you talk about in the

i think the phrase was first used in a justice harlan's dissenting opinion in plessy. and the preparatory language right before he gets to talking about our constitution is colorblind is all about the white race is supreme and dominant in politics and economics and industry and and everything and it will remain for all-time, as long as we hold fast to the great principles of the constitution, our constitution is colorblind. in other words, do not advertise that there is racial stratification and domination going on. it was a little bit too much truth in packaging to have jim crow apartheid segregation, harlan was saying. so, i mean, i don't know that that's a definitive debunking but it's at least illuminating about where that phrase comes from. the progressive position has always been that racism is favoring the original sin of the country and the government must have an active and affirmative role in trying to build an inclusive and fair society. having said that, i don't think we should just to be lamenting and but wailing what's happened in the supreme court. the s

we in some ways this is the kind of plessy of what we've already been talking about. that women's political rules in the revolution. but it takes seriously women as political actors in their own right. the political power that they possess, for the exercise, and not just relative to their own social with man. which i think it is also really important for us to kind of forget what we know about the history, about what comes next, and what isn't issues of people living in the late 18th early 19th century. they had just won the revolutionary war, the 1780's are kind of a hot mass. we tried the articles of confederation, it didn't work. start a new constitution, there's a lot of uncertainty, essentially, about the future of this nation. historically democracies, republics generally survive that long. so the founding generation was especially anxious about the future of the nation whose independent they had just what. the united states is new, it is young, and the nation's survival is not certain. so this causes a lot of anxiety among the league nations leaders, i would sa

i think the phrase was first used in justice harlan's disending opinion in plessy. and the prefatory language right before he gets to talking about the constitution is color blind he's all about the white race is supreme and dominant in politics and economics and industry and everything. and it will remain for all time. as long as we hold fast to the great principles of the constitution, our constitution is color blind. in other words don't advertise that there is racial stratification and domination going on. and so it was a little too much truth in packaging to have jim crow, apartheid segregation, harlan was saying, so i mean, i don't know that that's a definitive debunking but it's at least ill leum mate in aing about where the phrase come -- illuminating about where the phrase comes from. i think the position has always been, racism and slavery were the original sin of the country and the government must have an active and affirmative role in trying to build an inclusive and fair society. having said that, you know, i don't think we should just be lamenting and

plessy v. ferguson at all that. so backlash.hough it into the 20th century and naacp found it an urban league founded, backlash. then you get to the civil rights era where round versus board of education 54, sit and by students students, martin luther kueng is murdered, boycott. backlash. restarting after the civil rights act and the voting rights act the backlash comes. don't forget, 64 civil rights act, 65 voting rights act, 68 the open housing act. then all of a sudden there are urban rights, police brutality, and the backlash, richard nixon got elected that year in 68. 68. the end of the '60s with all retirement civil rights and with richard nixon. so fast-forward to your question. we get a black president barack obama, 2008. reelected in 2012. backlash, donald trump. i knew there would be a backlash after obama got in, and i worked close with obama. i didn't know it would be donald trump who has been anything other than presidential. but there's always a backlash and yet preprepared for a backlash which is why you never let

they got very well cut campaign back on track with a vital when abilene file friday, egoless birth plessy fired in from the edge of the area, a whole truck, huge relief for the fans and former thea. with 3 minutes we go 21, your enzyme now does the secondary line of magic for argentina to see like to know, victory or the drama isn't over as argentina as part of about to, to get hold of that early a weed will guarantee them a place in the law fix, they have to rely on the result of the next, the kind of saudi arabia. clack, mexico can also still qualify for the knockout spaces. we need to get it in though not close again, starting to well come up with a loss. was something we weren't expecting. the dice felt long, and we would get to have the chance to change the situation. we knew that it was a critical game because if we didn't win today, that would be it. and we also need that if we want to die off site would be back in our hands. luckily we did was a real weight of our shoulders and a real happiness because it gives us peace of mind. it's back in our hands again, or a group free pollen

and, you know, between the plessy ferguson ruling in 1896 and the looting of black wall street in 1920, george floyd's great great grandfather had his targeted at a time of racial terror in this country, where it was very common for people who had found wealth, who had found land to be stripped of that land with with very little recourse and we get into it in the book. but essentially because george floyd's great great grandfather did not know how to read, he was taken advantage by unscrupulous business owners who gave him these very complex business contracts and essentially allowed themselves through some of the unique financial instruments they were able to use to strip him of his land. and then the tax did their thing when when that was done at, the end of the early 1920s, george floyd's great great grandfather had all of his land away, and he wanted to pass that land down to his descendants because. he knew his father had never been able to pass anything down to him. none of his ancestors had been able to own anything because they had all been enslaved. and he he knew that that's

plessy versus ferguson. i think civil rights cases and shelby county and hold her. i think of affirmative action cases developing. the answer will be put up in response to that is the warren court. what about brown versus board and it is a good case. most people who looked at it carefully understand it did not change much on the ground. things on the ground changed as a result of legislation passed in the 60's, the civil rights act and voting rights act. increase of federal funding for education victim with requirements of it not be used in racially discriminatory ways. that is the argument that the warren court. beyond that it gets out of congress's way. it says the voting rights act is constitutional and civil rights act was constitutional. and that is not the court leading the way. the way i see the warren court is not aberration is it is still -- an argument that justin driver wrote a piece called constitutional conservatism of horned court. the warren court was good for a court. i think about the warren court up against brown versus board. it is something that

and, you know, between the plessy ferguson ruling in 1896 and the looting of black wall street in 1920 george floyd's great great grandfather had his targeted at a time of racial terror in this country, where it was very common for people who had found wealth, who had found land to be stripped of that land with with very little recourse and we get into it in the book. but essentially because george floyd's great great grandfather did not know how to read, he was taken advantage by unscrupulous business owners who gave him these very complex business contracts and essentially allowed themselves through some of the unique financial instruments they were able to use to strip him of his land. and then the tax did their thing when when that was done at, the end of the early 1920s, george floyd's great great grandfather had all of his land away, and he wanted to pass that land down to his descendants because. he knew his father had never been able to pass anything down to him. none of his ancestors had been able to own anything because they had all been enslaved. and he he knew that that's w
