without rachel robinson, we might not have had jackie robinson. was integral to his strength and ability to negotiate what was a truly difficult and challenging time. to echo rachel's words. she was always characterized as being steady and the calming influence on jack. she always called him jack, not jackie. she was an extremely intelligent woman who went to ucla while she trained to be a nurse. she went to post graduate school to get her degree. she had her very own successful professional career. she was a sounding board, and advisor they made all the , decisions together. it was interesting, at the same time, she was very supportive. in a more traditional way, both at the same time because she and jackie, she was always aware of the magnitude of what they were doing. to be the first, just was something of a whole different order than to be the second or third or fourth african-american in baseball. while those other players also suffered analogous racism in times, the spotlight was not on them the way it was on for the robinsons. whether she w

robinson carried on that legacy by starting the jackie robinson foundation which has provided college scholarships and training and career opportunities for more than 1400 underserved students. in fact, i know that we have a few jackie robinson scholars here today who are studying at howard and georgetown and yale and brown and even my alma mater, princeton. first ladies in their own words continues now on american history tv, michelle obama traveled to alabama in 2015 to address the graduating class of tuskegee university historically bought college. she reflected on how she had grown in her role as first lady. she also acknowledged criticism directed her at herself and president obama and spoke about dealing with racism. and while the history of this campus isn't perfect the defining story of tuskegee is the story of rising hopes and fortunes for all african americans. and now graduates it's your turn to take up that cause. and let me tell you you should feel so proud. of making it to this day. and i hope that you're excited to get started on that next chapter. but i also imagine th

no, korean, roosevelt robinson. who never gave up on elliot and was the only sibling he still trusted at the end of his life. spent 36 years as the wife of scottish-born douglas robinson who died in 1918 they had four children and through her daughter corrine robinson elsop corrine became the grandmother of columnists stewart and joseph ellisop very well known when widely read men in their day. corinne was active behind the scenes and republican republican politics and occasionally played a more visible role. at the 1920 gop convention in chicago corinne became the first woman to give a speech at a major party convention when she seconded seconded the nomination of guess who general leonard wood who probably would have made a very good president, but he lost the nomination. she enjoyed making speeches and thereafter was in great demand as a speaker. corinne was also a poet with four published volumes of poetry to her credit. now back there at the convention in june 1920. um, she drew a comparison between leonard woo

wasn't robinson from one of the places, arkansas? somebody came from a distinct place as another justice, so he had to be ruled out. but that was one of the ideas, to try to get the justices picked from different parts of the country. >> we have a question from princess michelle. your highness. do you have any information about how president roosevelt celebrated thanksgiving? my how many and dad were born here during that time, they joined the holiday -- i can answer a little bit of this which is for years fdr would celebrate thanksgiving in warm springs, georgia, at the rehabilitation center for polio that he created down there. he bought this rundown spa and turned it into a rehabilitation center. he would go down there every thanksgiving and send time -- [inaudible] in the mid 1920s. so he went there for quite a while before he became president. but even as president he would go down there. he could drop his act, and he could let people though that he was crippled and handicapped, and he would swim in the pool down there. they cal

robinson dropped dead right after the fourth of july. at that point, one more development justice band of inter announced he was resigning. roosevelt finally felt he had a vacancy to fill! at that point, just none of it was worth any more trouble. we can live with nine, you can see the dominoes. black is appointed in august, read the next year. both felix in a dog with the next year. frank murphy the next year. robert jackson and james burns the next year. these eight roosevelt appointees just one after another in the wings, starting in the summer of 37. >> there were so many opportunities for him to compromise. not so much cummings, who was a true believer as his attorney general, but others came to him, repeatedly, with offers. wheeler, montana -- with offers to compromise. he just wouldn't have it! he was dead set on moving ahead. he wouldn't even recognize the reality of what was happening. his own allies were coming to him with stories about what's going on out there. how he was losing, you know, support -- constituencies. he was ve

was eva robinson taylor? it could have been robinson. he said it could have been tailored. he wasn't sure. which name was hers her maiden name and it's because his mother died when he was five years old. so we didn't know much about her. he didn't know what her name was which to me was remarkable because as a 13 year old girl, my dad was as close as you could get to god. i grew up in a household. i grew up in a household. that was like father knows best. my father knew everything and so i just couldn't again i couldn't process how my daddy didn't know the name of his own mother. i couldn't process how we could have been descended from thomas jefferson. none of this made sense to me. but as a child i was a burning journalist. i was very curious so i kept pushing and kept asking. dad said his mother died when he was five years old. he couldn't remember her face. he couldn't remember her voice. and that made the story more compelling for me. because i wanted to bring my dad some peace. i wanted to help him find his family. i wanted him because i could i know he was in pain. i

when he died, i got a call from rachel robinson. said that she wanted me to be a pallbearer at her -- his funeral. and i said, he is my age, that is an overwhelming honor. why? she said, you were one of jackie's favorite athletes. and i took that to say that jackie had done a tremendous thing for us. that he was the first black to play baseball, but he was never a pushover. and, he took us to a place, that opened up this whole world for us. but i was not going to revisit that place. i wanted to take it to the next step. >> and so you did. >> and so, red asked me he said he's retiring as best of all coach. he says i'm retiring. i got to find a new coach to replace me. he says, first, do you want the job? is it help no. --hell no. i said i watch what you've gone through i don't want no part in that. so we agreed, both made a list of 10 guys that we would approve of. he says nobody can get a job and less you approve of them. so i made a list of 10 and he made a list of 10. there were no matches. and so he said, what do you want to do?

so, he left robinson hanging. really, a very sad episode in history. and robinson, i found out, his best friend was bernard brand-new, i didn't know that. >> there is a college named after him, isn't it? >> well, that's where i work. being a famous financial adviser to fdr. and it is strange that, you know, the way things turned, the whole thing could have been settled long before it went down to defeat if the plan had been carried through. roosevelt was going to appoint robinson, compromise, maybe a two justices, not go for the full six. but, as i keep coming back to this, he was adamant that he was gonna have at his way or the highway. >> paul, i have two more quick comments about the appointees. i want to flag felix frankfurter, he was of course brilliant. and sort of in his career stood, i think, most closely to the judicial restraint model that actually the court packing proposal is about. our policy in our country should, by and large, we made by our elected representatives, it's the supreme court's job to get out of the way of a government that
