i'll give to you martin luther king and robert smalls. >> and just to amplify steve's point about the bravery. i mean we forget about that a lot of times. but for smalls and those other african-american men in 1895 at the constitutional convention to oppose disfranchisement and -- this really was an act of courage and bravery. but these men had been through so much already just as you said. but the -- but the other point that i want to make is that in the constitutional convention of course was ben tillman, former governor. and now senator from south carolina and ben tillman had participated in the hamburg massacre. and to stand up toe to toe with ben tillman was a supreme act of bravery. that's the kind of mettle these men had. >> and it's an act of bravery because many times he was certainly near the end of his career, a lone voice and he was still there and he was still fighting the good fight. >> any -- [ applause ] >> thank you very much. thank you so much for coming out. it's been a long day but it's been a wonderful day. i want to thank our guests and good night. [ applause ] >

my question relates to robert smalls' unfinished work. the unfinished work of robert smalls. what did smalls not complete? we see the fort royal experiment. the attempts to set up an economic environment in which the former slave would be able to support himself, raise a family, start businesses, normally develop as any people would. this is wrecked by the democratic party and the aftermath, the beginning of the first reconstruction, and after the second reconstruction, which was black reconstruction as dubois defines it. what do you see us doing today with regard to this unfinished work of economic development, the economic empowerment of these people who for centuries have been exploited and a robbed by the system in america? >> well, part of robert smalls' work will be involved on the sea islands and the establishment of a black yeomanry on the sea island, the ownership of land, the working conditions on the sea islands. a lot of people don't realize this, but the sea islands were a boom area after the civil war. good industries, good jobs, good wages, plus numerous pharma

and the one man asserted that robert smalls is probably the greatest man on earth. the man that he was talking to said that smalls was certainly great, but he wasn't the greatest man on effort aarth and he knew someone even greater. and the first man asked the question, incredulously, well, who on earth could possibly be greater than robert smalls? the second man then offered jesus christ as the greatest man that ever walked on the earth. the first man was forced to concede, but he reminded man number two, that robert smalls was still young. now i think that we should become familiar with robert smalls for a variety of different reasons. first, in his life, we can see most of the overarching themes that african-american history revolves around. for example, we see slavery, emancipation, enfranchisement and political empowerment, the rise of white supremacy and finally while smalls dies in 1915, some of the work that he did actually laid the ground work for the second reconstruction. another term used to describe the american civil rights movement. secondly, smalls' l

this is a description of robert smalls when they raised the flags over ft. sumter on april 14th, 1865, smalls and the planter are in the harbor, and this is a participant wrote about this, that he saw the planter, he saw robert smalls. the paddle wheeler was crowded almost to suffocation upon her three decks with freed men who hung over the gunnells mounted on the post, peering through the gangways, darkening the wheel house upon the top of which robert smalls, a prince among them, self-possessed, prompt and proud, giving his orders to the helmsman in ringing tones of command. robert smalls and the planter will be part of the freedman brew's work along the coast. he will take the planter to baltimore where she is sold, and eventually smalls and the planter will return to south carolina. the planter will continue on as a transport along the coast, and robert smalls will then you might say start the next phase of his career. [ applause ] >> okay. i guess that's my cue. robert smalls obviously had a tremendous career, made a very significant impact on this count

robert smalls is included in the museum's vision, and it includes the stories related to robert smalls and his life and word. in february of -- february of this year, the museum celebrated the groundbreaking. and president obama was there. and i want to share with you his words in talking about the importance and significance of this museum. he said that moments like this made him think about his daughters, sasha and malia, and what i want for them to take away. i want them to see how ordinary americans can do extraordinary things, how men and a women just like them have the courage to right a wrong. he said i want them to appreciate this museum not just as a record of tragedy, but as a celebration of life. and when we look at, again, robert smalls and the ministers associated with his life, we think of those as some of the ones we have talked about, my colleagues have talked about previously, those that are related to the individual and personal stories, his immediate circle and family and friends. there are also many other stories of success and celebration that are celebrated beyond

this is where robert smalls would have been. that night thee was in sinking condition. the defeat made smalls dried to think so near to give up the fight. the next day the kiokuk will sink. the loser of the battle will be replaced and smalls will be tra trans ferred over to the army to serve onboard the army's vessels. the

question. >> well, quick answer, the south probably kept their mouth shut because they didn't want robert smalls' example influencing the other slaves. when the slaves escape there is a quick flurry in the newspaper and they don't take about it any more. the republican newspapers gave smalls great play. harper's weekly, democratic anti-war newspapers would not. and that's one of the things that dupont and per value drayton said that robert smalls need to be shown as an example to other people in the north to show them that their stereo types are not correct. >> and then last question, i think now generally people know the story, the gist of the story. are there any tidbits, any things that people don't typically know that we should bring out? any nuances of the story, any particulars that we should bring out in our closing moments? >> well, i'll take a stab at this and go back to the question about who in the 20th century. and i'm going to get at it from a backwards movement. robert smalls, obviously a native, another individual, who comes down and is at penn center to help plan his strategy in

no election seems too small for the reach of super pacs. in the ninth district robertor congressional seats, but these effectively are the general election. that's right, 3.6% of the voters just decided their friends and neighbors' congressman. you can thank the system of redistricting. it has deprived voters of competitive general elections. it's how congress has a 9% approval rating but a 90% re-election rate. it allows politicians to choose their people rather than vice versa. and listen to this warning. we're having the same conversations we had 40 years ago in the south, that black people can only represent black people and white people can only represent white people, he said. i'd hoped that in 2012 we we'd have grown better than that. we may be witnessing the resegregation of politics by the rank pursuit of political power. it should be said there are some hopeful signs like the election of tim scott in the first district of south carolina. but the low turnout election last night is a reminder about the dangers of voter apathy, special interest money and the rig
