so the children's bureau will solicited the help of the quakers social action division. and that's the that's the american friends service committee, and they went out to help figure out what was going on. and they when they looked at the extent of the suffering in scott's run, they said that they needed a bigger solution than just milk for kids. they needed something that's more comprehensive because it was such an intense suffering that was going on and kids were at risk. so they recommended something that would ultimately become the subsistence homestead program and they said really to make it reasonable for families to live. they need to have a healthful house and you have us that's a domicile somewhere to live. they need to have enough land to grow a garden because probably they're never going to have enough income to buy all their food, so they're going to need to supplement the food that they would get with the garden. they need to have some kind of part-time work at least to some have some cash flow in so they could do something with their money. they would need

the quakers were strongly typically abolitionists. they were in a position, because of the dynamic of the whaling industry, to always be in need of labor. so these two factors converged. new bedford became a place where people are against slavery, and they have a need for skilled laborers, both on the waterfront and on ships. and so, african americans escaping who have those skills know they can come to new bedford and find a means to make a living. the nathan and polly johnson house, in fact, is the first home of frederick della gillis -- frederick douglass when he uses a protection order to travel safely to the north, mostly by rail and overland, but also using water as well. he comes to new bedford in 1838. he tries to find work using the skill he was trained in, which was as a call. he was not able to do that, because they were not open to the idea of working with a man of color. within a few years of his arrival, the color line blurred, and he was able to find work in new bedford by the 1840s. this was a production paper for isra

by the 19th century, the quakers were very strongly vocally abolitionists and they were in a position because of the dynamic boom of the industry, they are in a position to always need labor. these two factors converge where new bedford becomes a place where people are against slavery and they have a need for skilled laborers on the waterfront and on ships. african-americans escaping have those skills and know that they can come to new bedford and find a means to make a living. the polly johnson house is the first home of frederick douglass when he escapes using ac man's protection waiver in order to travel safely to the north. mostly by rail and over land, but also using some waterborne means, as well. he comes in 1838 and he tries to find work using a skill that he was trained in, which was a cocker. wasn't able to do that, because the conquerors of new bedford were not open to the idea of working with a man of color, but within a few years after his arrival, the color line blurred and they were able to find work in new bedford by the 1840s. this is their protection paper for israel

. >> it failed though because the immoral treatment was a thing that came out of the way quaker reform efforts. to keep doctors of what we now call psychiatry, they were doing more damage than they were doing good so the quakers started opening institutions where people would be cared for tihumanely, given fresh air and sunshine and beautiful surroundings and they did have success that a lot of people improved because of that but then when states or government starts opening mental hospitals, with good intentions and high hopes and all that but we are limited in terms of our understanding of these w, that we didn't have effective therapies. there were all kinds of problems related to money that quickly overwhelms hospitals. there was edmismanagement of funds, political cronyism, all these days that calls all these problems so by the mid to late 19th century you see these hospitals filling up with patients who aren't being cared for and who weren't well-made in the first place. the staff aren't well trained . they're not equipped todeal with all of this . right. so that contributed to i

tn good so the quakers started opening these institutions where people would be caredey for humanely and given lots of fresh air and sunshine and the beautiful surrounding. they did have success. a lot of people improved because of that and then when the government started opening thes mental hospitals and the doctors get involved again with good intentions and high hopes and all of that but they were limited in terms of the understanding of these diseases. we didn't have therapies and there were all kinds of problems related come money that very quickly overwhelmed hospitals. there was mismanagement of funds and appropriation of funds, political cronyism and nepotism and all these huge problems at these hospitals in the mid-to late 19th century. you see these hospitals filling up with patients who aren't being adequately cared for and the facilities are falling apart because they were well made in the first place and they are well staffed and staff are well-trained her well paid and not equipped to deal with all of this. so that contributed to the sense that mental diseases were not

for most people in rural morocco, the 6 the most affected by the quakers irrigation. almost all pipes were destroyed . additionally, our harvest of apples and walnuts failed due to the quake we have never experienced such a devastating quake before my mother. and i got fortunately, rescued teams are able to reach more and more remote areas and the initial, a deliveries of food, intense. and i sort of a discuss the economic impact of that devastating. i've quite a morocco with mike scully and he's a political scientist. so the is huge of development studies in london. thanks a lot for being with us. i mean, the human cost is totally of immeasurable but, but what sort of economic damage has the quite dunn's barriers affected? i think you have said you right it's, it's very difficult to, i think right now, further than the, the enormous even costs. and obviously i think our thoughts are with the people who yes, we have lost family members in this risk ident, but i think over the coming weeks and months we're going to think i'm here a lot more about the, the longer time e

and here in also with the quakers. but regarding people who were incarcerated, there's still the eastern state penitentiary existed in the state which was a very idealistic idea that believed in sort of spiritual reform and transformation, really quiet and now spooky, but, you know, part of, part of the idea that something could be really done with that. so then we have some of the other, you know, state institute nations and whatnot that when they are getting overcrowded, like facing economic and stuff, then they turn to sterilized asian as a condition for release so trading concern. i don't know if you can consent or you're just trying to get out of an institution of some sort, but trading consent for release then becomes a way that sterilizations actually increase think during the great depression and even after even i think like even after we hear about the atrocities of nazi germany. yeah yeah i mean they i think the bulk of them really were were done like the early thirties and maybe the fifties but. yeah. i mean

so we think that the quakers also blocked some roads and rescue is a still trying to reach some of the hardest to terry is is the window to find survivors slowly closer as more stories making headlines around a well, that's look at some of them. these are all supreme court is having the 1st legal challenge to the governments. controversial give you show results all 15 of the countries supreme court judges of cabins. yeah, absolutely. so against that legislation passed by prime minister. i mean, you mean it's a yeah. who's religious nationalist commission there before then see changes to the game. these routes the more pressing and then me leave for the pain. generalist on nobel prize went off money address that has been acquitted of tax evasion charges. the case was opened almost 5 years ago and the full amount for the pain president was they go to attach a rest. i wasn't vocals, but it's like somebody to take up meant that he drives, she maintains the charges against the west point. it's a 3 months of age. i think what we see, the transition from united states has one to came young, n

her family was from philadelphia quakers, so she was an abolitionist as quakers were her father moves to richmond. that's her on the right. he's the wealthiest person in richmond. if anybody's been on the hill in richmond and looking down over the river, this is where the home was. so what she does is buy slave tvs and then freeze them. they called her crazy because she believed in women's equality, she opposed slavery and she was an older woman who never married. now, she used that her advantage in the genteel south back in the 1800s. nobody would expect a woman to be a spy. what she would do is she would go into the prison with fresh baked foods and everybody, even the guards, are starving. and she would offer the guards food. she had enough money, she could have food delivered. and if the guards she. i'll give you food if you let me give to the prisoners. the guards said, sure, because they were starving. she hid notes inside, hollowed out eggs. she had secret compartments under her pots and pans. she hid notes. she also general benjamin butler and ulysses sent her a codex. she kne

from thomas hogue, a loudoun valley neighboring quaker. at that name sound familiar? >> yes. >> his letters are written to the custom officer in berlin, maryland, which is today brunswick.francis cochran of baltimore, both referring to jenny as an uncompromising union man, and asa, apparently, traveled by horse and carriage to the potomac river, somehow made his way across to sandy hook, maryland. which -- >> where we were not too long ago. >> travis and i did a similar thing thanks to sandy hook -- and got a pass on the provost marshal at sandy hook that allowed jenny to go to harpers ferry, allowed them both to go to harpers ferry, where they then took a train to baltimore. the last document is a letter of introduction dated february 7th, 1863, to introduce jenny and his honor to major general robert frank, commander of the middle-department, which was headquartered in baltimore. the middle-department is like a big administrative department for baltimore in the p.a. area. so, shank was sort of a -- not going to some great for shank -- sort of a pencil-pushing admini

in it, he inquired hopefully about the prospect of being buried among quakers, the crusading christians in whose meeting houses he had grown up. but they refused. and so when thomas paine's decline ended, at 8:00 a.m. on june 8, 1809, his executives took him instead up to never shall and buried his body on the farm once given to him by the state of new york for his role in creating the united states. but so much had happened since that fight for independence. and that farm of his was almost deserted on the day of his burial. not a single political leader attended his funeral. only six people turned up. one who did was madam bonneville, his french immigrant housekeeper. another who did was her american born son, benjamin. she later described placing herself at the end of his grave as the earth was thrown down on his coffin and telling her son, stand you there at the other end as a witness for grateful america. a week later, it was she and benjamin who paid for the small gravestone jammed into the earth as i am that grandma spot. -- into the earth on that spot. the inscription said, thoma

a lot of girls who were the children of quaker abolitionists, for example, that comes up a lot or girls who were the daughters of schoolteachers at a time where most mothers were not and so were exposed to reading and writing or conversations in their houses. otherwise they might not have had access to later. it becomes much more of a rebellion so you know. there are exceptions to that, but i think generationally sense of rebellion that motivates a lot of people to join these movements also a lot more geographic distance becomes possible so people start leaving their homes to go to college to get higher education in some way, travel becomes more possible and so that literal rupture with where come from becomes almost and then drives i think a lot people to want to find meaning in joining more collective actions but yeah thank god for quaker abolitionist parents because a lot of good things came out of them. one thing i was really struck by reading your book, mattie, was just how many of the girls were treated poorly? not, you know, not just the public, but by other people in the social

so we think that the quakers also blocked some roads and rescue is a still trying to reach some of the hardest to terry is is the window to find survivors. slowly, closer to view correspondence, yon phillip shelves in myra cache. and 4 days after the quite he told us about the latest on the rescue efforts to find survivors. this, the efforts are continuing at 1st speeds and americans are now as a part of the by teams from spain, from britain cuts are the united arab emirates and also many local and g o. as on the ground experts say the 1st 72 hours i crusoe and unfortunately this timeframe is over now. but i talked to many experienced rescue us yesterday. and they say that they are still helpful to find survivors in the coming days, even if it may not be in very big numbers at, in the place that i visited to yesterday. and every remote village in the mountains rescue, i haven't been able to find any survivors yet, but they are continuing that for us today. so you don't, you corresponding to on set of shelves there? let's take a look now. what so more stories making headlines around the

have nothing to eat or drink, no bread, nothing new for all the epicenter of that magnitude, 6.8. quakers in the atlas mountains, entire communities that has now been reduced to rubble as widespread damage to the historic city of mara. cash them 70 kilometers away, and that's where our correspondents are and how it joins us from right now during that we've been saying, and now the nice out the in the open for the people. yes, that's right. last night we were here in this square. it was absolutely jam packed for the families living rough, having so salvage what little they could from their homes, either having being told not to return to structurally on unsound buildings or for appeal, a fear of off the shots. many of moved on this morning. it's already getting pretty hot, but a lot you can see a sheltering in the openings of shops in these medina, the historic market trading area of gold minor cash. many of these people you talk to them, they will tell you that they believe the quite was god's. will that happy to be alive for the stoic passage? you just the nice that stoicism though atten

the german-american areas, amish mennonite, areas settled by quakers, presbyterians outside of philadelphia really amazing as you go at a slow, three-mile in our pace. you can see those differences in the way the houses are designed or the villages are designed or the way people interact with you. those early imprints still stick. it is fascinating to look at up close. host: renee walks -- rights he walked a small area of america. do you plan to walk other areas of the nation? guest: i do. i am working on a book concept now that would take me to the lead up of the two 50th birthday of the country. -- 250th birthday of our country and i would like to call it our land which do shorter but deeper dives into wider sections of it. i am really open to the interesting portals and entryways to this part of a country in doing that. host: over this past weekend, there were recommendations for walks, rambles you can take on your own. what were some of those? guest: get is fascinating. i am now in new jersey not far -- we built on the east coast so many canals during the 18 and 20's and 30's. and many

not because we are pacifist, i have a great respect for quakers and others. i am a christian but i'm not a pacifist. i believe in justice but in very different circumstances. afghanistan, trillions of dollars. iraq, trillions of dollars. ukraine, now over $135 billion and growing. more than likely, you don't know how much money is actually being paid. we have to be sensitive with our ukrainian brothers and sisters but also critical. now, two decades later, 13 former soviet countries are now part of nato with missiles targeted at russia. if russia had missiles in mexico and canada, what were the u.s. government do? probably blow them this leather reins. -- to smithereens. the wealth of america is greed. the best of america's love, justice and willing to live in the world as a nation among nations. that is the legacy of martin luther king and so many of the others i have mentioned. host: to ken, caller from spokane, washington. caller: good morning. what a privilege to be able to speak with you this morning. i just have a question for you regarding the democrat

it coming up laurel codes, government announces a, an a plan to help the victims of the quakers. many survivors suffer from trauma and on certain to saudi arabia are invited to human suki rebels. dependencies far towards re us us president son hunter bite. and his beating dykes, done, federal firearms charge the clean up operations of the sensitive done or is whitening local a group say they are clearing that, bringing that recovery more bodies. so for at least $6000.00 people have been confirmed that often storm done, you'll hit the city there. if it is the death toll could rise to $20000.00 officials a warning of an outbreak of disease and as people not to drink water from their regular sources. the more we are warning of an environmental disaster from the decomposing bodies on homes and enclosed areas, the rescue teams have not been able to access. we advise against drinking water from city sources as it is contaminated and recommend the use of bottled water. instead, we are generally recommend providing vaccinations to local rescue teams and residents of infected areas. we ca

it was since the s quaker fund jose my in 2004. the laws were passed about to the, to the new building, to be built in observance of ties. just make regulations and rules and also and efforts is being made or has to be made or i was scheduled to, to, to be made to, to, to, to a, to rehabilitate before the mid beam, as with all those centuries for the buildings. so morocco is prepared, but as you know, as i said, the difficulty is okay. mountainous region. that's what might be another difficulty for the, for the risk you choose to get to the people who may be, might be still trapped. all right, so i'll just narrow them down my name l, i'm ronnie the giving us an update from the scene of that popular quake hitting several cities across morocco, the latest because we have official if it goes coming from the state, media, 296 that on a 153 in general of us to update you throughout the morning as we get into here now to 0. so let's move on to shelby because north korea has held a power mill, actually parade to mock. it's founding de kim

and the men's national football team is also donation fab logged for the quaker victims. and algeria has decided to open this s face to morocco, the to allow for the delivery of humanitarian medical aid. the presidential office says it will lift it to your bad on flights to its neighbors. the 2 north applicant countries broke ties in 2021 of a territorial dispute in western sahara. well, caroline hawes is the global director of operations for the international federation of red crossman by present societies. and she explains why time is of the essence and the search for survivors. this is very early stages of course, of, of, of a search and rescue response. we know that efforts will be complicated, but of course these are the initial i was, this happened the nighttime when most people were maybe sleeping that beds or thinking about that. and so it was daylight broke this morning. we really are already starting to see the same types of the quite on the phone right now. and the next 48 to 72 hours will be critical in terms of life saving, search and rescue efforts will be a

and also, why did the quakers reject him? >> thank you, man. question. am not the right person to answer this. i will defer to other scholars out there but i can tell you a couple of quick things about tom pain. and slavery and other political causes of the 18th century. pain was antislavery and in his newspaper writing in philadelphia, he published a paper that we think he wrote denouncing slavery and we can also see at the more general level of commitment to making a democracy that works for as many people as possible. a broader human rights agenda. also arguably a friend of the women's rights campaign. some of those were really attributed to him. we can actually be sure. he certainly had a much broader influence than just on the narrow question of nationhood. chris we want to introduce you to noah. she is at the institute for thomas payne studies. this is in new rochelle, new york. what is the institute? >> thank you for having me. the institute for thomas payne studies was founded to really study the life and legacy of pain. this was the last year of

levitz bill on down to goose creek and waterbury you're going to have a lot of german immigrants, quakers, people coming from pennsylvania and maryland. their cultural roots are to the north. their family ties are to the north. that is going to set them apart from their neighbors in the eastern and southern parts of loudoun county. these are the parts largely settled by english tidewater planners from the eastern parts of virginia. they bring with them plantation agriculture. a reliance on and slave labor. these differences are going to play out in a very deadly way in the american civil war. luther slater as a young man is the stereo typical hard-working very pious and industrious german family. as a young man he's going to decide he wants to go into a career in the clergy. thank you. he's going to look towards a career in the clergy. he will attend a school down in salem virginia and will transfer up to pennsylvania to study to become a minister. in 1861 everyone's plans get derailed. the decision to go into the church is put on hold temporarily and in 1862 he's going to return to loudo

um, so, and rough terms, the as quaker could on a what we call the south dipping, falls under the high outlasts span an area even beeping us about 50 kilometers a length of 30 kilometers a depth. so it's a very large area of, of which that rupture happened. and the to apply added to full size moves by several meters against each other in just a few seconds. and so that really uses the southern release of business grass creates the voice. now that there's nothing unusual compared to what we know of those quakes over the last decades globally. so that earthquake shows same very similar features of what we know from other earthquakes of that magnitude. in the most amanda you were speaking earlier and how soon was speaking earlier about the concern for those in the heart as it areas in those very remote areas. we, we've heard and seen reports the residents in villages in the high atlas mountains have been calling on people from merit cache and from other cities to come and help them. first i want to ask you, are there volunteers from the city is going to those areas or trying to make it to
