time to promote rachel as the bachelorette. a source tells "e.t." they want a group of quality guys for her. now casting directors will have time to find those guys. that's something you could sense last night on "kimmel." >> we're ready to get started. i'm ready to find love. find a husband. if you know anyone out there who needs to apply, sign up -- >> oh, really, you're soliciting? >> yes. >> she's a perfect choice. she's smart and accomplished, she's a lawyer. second, she's really self-confident. that is something that nick loved about her the whole season on "the bachelor." and finally at age 31 she is ready to settle down and she is making history of the first african-american lead for the whole "bachelor" franchise. the lack of diversity has been parodied on "snl." >> tell me about yourself. >> well, i'm the black one. >> let me walk you out. >> even a storyline on the second season of lifetime's "unreal." >> he's black! >> yeah, the first black bachelor, that black. >> the fictional series follows the backstage drama at

rachel: that's right. they tried to give them to the best students as a reward for academic merits but absolutely social connections. seeing did we start large numbers of mexican students increase in terms of coming to the united states for their education? the difference between our research is that she looking sheiddle-class migrants as would like to put it as part of the migrant population. but i look at a different sector of the migrant population, the working class and the laborers. my work covers from 1952 forward. i can't really speak to much to middle-class migrations. i can speak more to the bursar of program -- to the bracero program and the influent flow of mexican migrants. >> you go back to 1952. what is particularly important about that date? jennifer: that's when congress law.ied immigration before that, there had been several statutes that work together, but there came together to codify all of them. in onee really outlining space were kind of enforcement capabilities the ins had, the immig

rachel? >> the announcement made history but also raised questions. on the bachelor, rachel is still in the running for nick's rose. why would producers announce? chris wrote quote, i'm soar before sorry about the timing of the announcement p.m. i hate that anything was ruined. >> there seems to be a couple of reasons why this announcement might have been made so early. first leaks were popping up on-line that rachel might have been the new bachelorette and this gives producers time to promote the bachelorette. they want a group of quality guys for her and now casting directors will have time to find those guys. that is something you could sense from rachel last night from kimmel. >> we're ready to get started. i'm ready to find love. find a husband. if you know anyone out there who will apply -- >> you're soliciting. >> yes. >> first she is smart and accomplished. she is a lir. second, really self confident. that is something that nick loved about her the whole season on the bachelor. and finally at age 31 she is ready to settle down and she is makin

i'm picking up what putting down. >> rachel: who knows?that he is a sellout. >> sandra: they are saying it would be hard for them to vote against the nominee with his admirable background. >> meghan: it's kind of like gorsuch pick where you can attack someone for having a fantastic background until they are connected with a trump administration. if they go after him they way they did with puzder, they're just going to look like they're playing party politics and they don't care who is nominated for whatever reason. it just matters that they're conservative and under the trump administration. we talk about political capital on this couch all most every day, sandra. if they do this now, they won't have any more ammo later on. >> adam: what about people who are taking these positions? we are a very divided country in a lot of ways. the men and women who are taking these positions, they are some heat. just the perception of what you deal with, what i deal with as you know, whether the perception is true or not, there's part of the country that

>> and rachel. i think that bill o'riley would recommend national guard on corners, hot corners are where they're occurring. and your thought of donald trump sending some support to chicago? >> well, if he's invited by rahm emanuel. but, look, the crime problem, you're from chicago, eric, the crime problem at its root is a family problem, a spiritual problem and nothing that donald trump can do about that. i think that what is interesting here, this is an opportunity for president donald trump to engage citizen barack obama who right now is sitting on an island with richard branson and should probably get off that island and come over to his hometown and start doing the work he never did in his administration to help black families and earn city youth. the plight in the inner city has been a wasted opportunity over the last eight years with an african-american president who really could have done a lot more. this is a chance for donald trump to engage him and let's get to the root of the problem, wh

eric: and rachel, let's talk this week. yesterday we saw president trump showing up in south carolina by the way, a right to work state, he talked to boeing. and later he'll spend time in florida talking about his economic plans. >> when the cameras roll on the rally, the entire country will be watching, that's the advantage. the press conference, no one could stop watching it, that was riveting. it's not just the media, the left is organizing at the highest levels, a few miles from the white house you have president obama who set up headquarters, encouraging his holdovers in the government to disrupt and obstruct the trump presidency. organizing for america and getting their astroturf activists over to town halls. this is a very serious opposition he's facing and you know what, donald trump doesn't need all of that organization. his strength has always come from the people. so he is going right over the heads of the media, right over the heads of obama and his organization, and taking it to the people who are his supporter

i will now turn it over to rachel. rachel: i cannot say how much it means to be here. a panel on one's work is something that historians dream of, or perhaps, dread a little. so i would like to thank the american history center, the aha, my longtime colleagues, and all of you for turning up here. this is especially significant bigme because like many historical projects, this one also has deep historical and personal roots. i grew up on a farm, surrounded by 1000 acres of wheat, beans, and barley, dairy cattle and beef cattle. my father farmed but my mother just cooked. she had no choice but to just cook. that came with the territory. in some ways, this is a tribute to her because she would love to be doing what i am doing now and have had a chance to develop her own career and her own ideas, but no choice. the project actually started in earnest in the early 1980's at the university of hawaii where i engaged in long conversations with jerry bentley and visitors to hawaii in world history about food history. then, i began teaching a course in food history, but in those

now, rachel parents spend a lot for them to go to school, is that what she should be paying for?solutely not, if i were sending a white child and this has no place in a university and parents need to vote with lir dollars. eric: do we need a white pin to remind us about white privilege. >> rachel, i heard you loud and clear, i don't think this is to make anyone feel bad or loathing. i think this is an opportunity to go to school and think about race in america and we're a diverse society and a sense who we are. >> i'm a latino and you're an african-american. our children have more privilege than many white people in appalachia. i think this is so dated and has no place. >> i agree, rachel, and there's lots of racial discussion and tensions in america and it's good for young people to have an opportunity to look at it and think about it. eric: go ahead, lisa. >> now it's confirmed, i need my hearing checked hearing from juan williams. this is ridiculous, shameful. how does it possibly unite anyone. this is only going to further divide people. this is ridiculous, it's shameful and

rachel, amy, jessica. jessica, what a proud moment for democrats. >> feeling awesome about the scumbag comment. no, just kidding. it's not appropriate and that starts at the top with president trump who we have on tape talking about grab her by the-- crooked hillary and carly fiorina, look at that face. get down to business and stop name calling and that begins with the leadership. >> advocates say that you can say what you want, but how about the hypocrisy. >> you don't have to say what if a republican would say that. we know what happened when a republican said that. >> you get elected to be president? >> no, dan burton in the '90s called president clinton a scumbag and it became national headline news. dan burton was excoriated up and down for using that language, completely unappropriate using that about the president of the united states. >> notice, rachel, i'm not using that word, but i'm talking about, when maxine waters who has had political problems, her husband was involved in some misdealings in

i now turn it over to rachel. rachel: thank you. say how much it means to be here. a panel on one's work is something we historians dream of or perhaps dread a little. so i would like to thank the american history center, the aha , ames bentley and paul friedman who have been longtime colleagues. and libby and amanda, who i just meant to and thank you for coming up to her. this is especially significant to me because like many big historical projects, this one also has deep historical and personal roots. i grew up on a farm surrounded by 1000 acres of wheat, oats, and barley. dairy cattle, beef cattle. my farmer father farmed, but my mother just cooked. justad no choice but to cooked. that came with the territory then and in some ways, this is a tribute to her because she would have loved to be doing what i am doing now and have had a chance to develop her own career and her own ideas. but no choice. the project actually started in earnest in the early 1980's at the university of hawaii where i engaged in long conversations with jerry bentley and visited hawaii at o

but rachel says her historic season will focus on finding true love and less on race. >> when i met rachelnew orleans, she was really laid back and said she was staying away from drama in the bachelor mansion. but the bachelorette needs drama. so what is she going to bring to the show? she did tell us she really identified with the struggles that nick viall was going through as the bachelor. >> i tell nick all the time every time i talk to him, how are you doing? because i can't imagine what it's like to be able to compartmentalize every relationship with the women in this house. >> i'm going to say this and this only. it's about time. >> yes, i will say that too. >> go right ahead. >> it is about time, everybody. >> thank you, cameron mathisen. rachel will make her debut as the bachelorette on may 22nd. >> on the way the new britney spears movie that she does not want you to watch. >> also matt damon's big premiere. the epic movie and his epic man bun. plus nick jonas on his hot new "fifty shades darker" song. >> i just tried to bring some soul to i will nevi wnevereverair again. wash my

but rachel said her historic season won't be focussing on race as much as finding true love. when i met rachel in new orleans she was laid back and staying away from drama in the bachelor mansion. but the show needs drama so what will she bring to the show? she said she understands the struggles with nick on the show. >> every time i talk to him, i'm like, how are you doing? i cannot imagine what it is like to compartmentalize every woman in this house. >> now rachel will learn how to compartmentalize. >> five days since julie chen broke the big news that george and amal clooney are expecting twins but she had been sitting on that secret for weeks. she is giving up the story behind the story. >> congratulations are in order for george and mail clooney. >> hoere is the truth of the matter. my husband and i saw george and amal about three weeks ago and they casually mentioned this werr expecting twins. and i was like, is it a secret? george went, no. but we didn't feel right telling anybody. >> early last week a tab lid suggested mail was expecting twins julie decided to act. >

our crew this week, rachel, amy holmes and richard fowler. amy, the media coverage of trump hitting a new low. >> when you thought they couldn't sink lower they get out the shovel and start digging. this is outrageous, to be suggesting that president trump would be imprisoning, torturing journalists and diminishing the acts of torture and persecution happening around the world in cuba, in iran, in saudi arabia, in many places where donald trump is trying to have a moratorium for individuals from those countries coming to the united states. is this a real question? yes, it's outrageous to be making those accusations. eric: and let's say katie, is a journalist, not an opinion journalist, but a straight journalist at msnbc. >> i don't think we're watching the same tape. clearly, what katie is saying, president trump is supporting putin who has persecution of journalists, and took one step further that donald trump is going down a dangerous path. that if something happened to a journalist, it would be his fault. >> if you listen carefully, donald

>> i think it's critical, rachel. i think it shows how important this issue is that you get that kind of support from, as you mentioned, 100 tech companies. we're talking microsoft, apple, google. and from the national security standpoint, critics of the lawsuit pointed to that as does the president. a bipartisan group of national security experts, including george w. bush filed support of my complaint and motion before the ninth circuit court of appeals. i think it goes to the heart of the case and will speak as we move forward in this process. >> are more states going to be joining on your side of this lawsuit? >> i don't want to get ahead of my colleagues but we welcome the additional states. some states want to bring their a more radical way, would you expect the kind of on-the-ground chaos we saw when the ban first went into effect last weekend? >> that's a good question and hard to predict. i guess what i could say is i've seen firsthand the impact. i was out at sea-tac airport to greet folks coming from countri
