of the southern colonel. he is the guy weren't frontier clothing and that is how people do this at the time. they either just settled here or move further west. why did they start looking on us as southern? i think a good part of that was at the time southern plantations literature fiction was very popular. people were going through nostalgic turn about a generation after the civil war. everybody's reading writers like john cox junior and is asking about the southern place here in the image of southern miss in people's imagination. kentuckians were always eager to make a dollar off their horses were quite glad to go along with that. at the same time, the northern moneyman like the industrialists, bankers, stock market investors were most happy to buy into the notion of kentucky for central kentucky being southern because at this point they are looking for an escape from their lives that have become very troubled and they have the money to buy into this notion of going into the near south for the period is a m

announce the 1920s, 1930s, primarily by white southern women of means.class, upper class white women, and then all of a sudden as there started to be much more pushback for civil rights and racial equality by african americans throughout the south, you started to see an embrace of these kind of iconic symbols of the confederacy, and they become the face of these groups that terrorized black people throughout the south, so for me it seems very disingenuous when you have confederate sympathizers who say this is a racially neutral symbol. they aren't saying that to the kkk and all of the other groups that came out and used in symbol, right? they are saying that this is racially neutral to black critics primarily. and so once again, that's a kind of -- for me you know, this disingenuous moment where the -- the kind of pushback by those sympathizers have been directed towards black people and so at the heart of it here you have this kind of racism that is inherent and the world saw that. and when you saw the bloody massacre of, you know those men and woman wo

but here you have a representative of southern unionism, the phenomenon of southern unionism in which some scholars, especially bill freeling, who makes the case of the number of men from slave states that wore blue uniforms gave a decisive edge to the union in the end. he finds 450 thousand men from slave states wore union blue. this is a new framework for thinking about the war. let's talk a little bit about men in the ranks and give some examples to the audience of some of these troops and their stories. prof. gannon: well i mean, i think -- there are so many. one of the things people have no idea is how many medal of honor winners there were among colored troops, there were 14 in one battle. christian fleetwood was one of those medal of honor winners. robert penn, there are so many others. there were also the african americans in the navy who were also awarded the medal of honor. they were so much more. so many stories. it's incredible about their sacrifice. most people don't realize the men who fought at port hudson were officers, black officers among them. the 54th massachusetts

already seeing showers across southern california. the one thing that we don't see here in the bay area is the humidity. that's going to start to creep up as we head through the day today and tomorrow. today's dew points will be in the 50s and right near 60 degrees. and that's just a measure of atmospheric moisture. and that's why we always joke about talking about, it's going to be a bad hair day, because of, of course, the humidity goes hand in hand with how your hair will look out there. it will be noticeable today. for tomorrow, it goes up just a little bit. it is going to be humid out there tomorrow. keep that in mind, especially if you have a nice day planner or a day date. if you notice, today's forecast looks pretty good. it's going to come down from where our highs have been. 86 for the south bay. 79 for the peninsula today. the east bay will be warm at 86. the tri-valley, hot up to 90 degrees today. san francisco will be right at 70 degrees. of course, i would like to tell you what's happening across the bay area. today, the

in southern new jersey southern delaware, low 80s as well.en at the beaches, we are seeing that because of the wind direction. it's all about wind direction at the shore. northwest wind so it's 82 in avalon, 80 in beach haven. very similar to the inland areas. that's going to change over the weekend. we will be getting sea breezes both saturday and sunday. not real strong winds but just enough. we have a lot of sunshine out here now, of course. clouds and even some showers back to the west. some in west virginia and ohio. just about all of this is going to track down to the south but southern delaware could get just on the edge of that. watch the temperatures as we go through the night. the wind direction continues to be out of the dry northwest so the humidity stays low. we could still get clouds even with low humidity near the ground but it gets harder to actually get some rain. this particular model is just bringing clouds in and not some showers but there is a chance down there and it's close to 90 degrees up in the philadelphia area but

well, i see an inconsistency between condemning the destruction of southern plantations and southern factories and southern railroads and southern homes and farms on the one hand but praising the abolition of slavery on the other because it is all of a piece, i think. clearly there were excesses in sherman's march through south carolina. maybe shared in the destruction of shenandoah valley. clearly that goes beyond the adjustments of the war -- the justness of the war. peter carmichael: the deadline of civilians and shoot them. -- did line-up civilians and shoot them. dr. mcpherson: in world war ii if we want to say strategic bombing was part of just war that killed hundreds of thousands of vietnamese civilians. in the civil war, very few civilians were killed by the actions -- thousands of civilians. in the civil war very few civilians were killed by the actions of soldiers. i am with mark grimsley that this was a hard war and making a hard war was part of the policy of winning the war. while there were excesses, it nevertheless was largely within the balance of a proportionate resp

the southern states lost the war. the states then rejoined the union. president lincoln then proposed a 13th amenent legally ending slery. that amendment mr. speaker ssed this congress on january 31 1865. finally it was ratified by georgia on december 6, 1865. and during the period of ratification, president lincoln was assassined. for the next 50 years,0-plus years, every black person living in the south faced the possibility of lynching. more than 4,000 blacks were lynched between 1890 a 1950. 136 black people were lynched in soutcarolina. but there are some now who want to continue to honor slavery and hon your bigotry -- honor bigtry. this house must not be complicit. the shooting in sth carolina was an example of a 21st century lynching. the man festo left by the charleston killer stated, quote, i have no choice. im not in the position to go to alone go into the ghetto and fight. i chose charleston because is the most historic cy in my state and at one time had the highest ratio of blacks to whites in the country. he was right. 57%. . we have no sk

lightning did strike at least one plane in southern california. this flight heading to washington, d.c. had to turn back after being struck. the pilot and crew along with 159 passengers made a safe emergency landing about 1:00 this afternoon. a spokewoman for alaska airlines says passengers on board did not feel anything when the lightning struck and the boeing 737 is built to withstand lightning strikes. will we see any rain in our area? up there you see a live look at the radar and we have a man here who can interpret what that means for us. here's meteorologist rob myeda. >> the lightning bolts explain themselves. the bay area around the hill tops central bay, los altos, an jose, we've seen lightning. a majority of the action to the south and east. you've been seeing these thunderstorms moving up north-northwest out of southern and central california for this evening and we'll continue to see more of this especially around the diablo range into the santa cruz mountains as we head through tonight. the culprit is the moisture from former hurrican

factories in southern railroad and farms -- of southern plantations, of southern factories, of southern railroads and farms. on the one hand but praising the abolition of slavery on the other because it's all about peace. clearly there were excesses. in sherman's march the south carolina, maybe in sheridan's destruction in the shenandoah valley. clearly that goes beyond the justness of the war. peter: were they really an excess? they didn't line up civilians and shoot them. james: that's another dimension. in world war ii we want to say that strategic bombing was part of a just war on the part of the allies, that killed hundreds of thousands of civilians. in the civil war, very few civilians were killed by actions of the soldiers themselves. i've come down on the side that while there were excesses, clearly, i'm sort of on the side that this was a hard war, and that making it hard war was part of the policy of winning the war. and while there were some excesses, it nevertheless was largely within the bounds of a proportionate response to the demands of the war. peter: why don't we take
