, elizabeth stanton does what so many of us do at that time in our lives. she goes to take care of her grandchildren, goes to england to take care of her grandchildren and help her daughter who needs a little bit of help so she can pursue her writing and reform concerns. while in the, i don't know, four or five years since elizabeth stanton was there, she makes connections with british sufficient w suffragists or renews connections with british suffragists, that she had made in 1840, and her daughter, so for instance, that's how her daughter meets the pankursts whose father was an important liberal politician. it's that link through elizabeth stanton that lays the basis for the continuing link between british and american suffragists. >> that daughter must be harriet stanton blach, you have written about her. here's a question from katherine loper, can you share your thoughts on popular mainstream resistance in the early 20th century. >> resistance, did you say? >> yes. >> well, there's no question that there was tremendous amounts of sexism in the society.

stanton: she went to south carolina.uth carolina to discuss building a movie studio there. she met with all the movers and shakers there. narrator: carpenter is a special guest at dinner parties and is given a helicopter tour across the state to scout locations for her studio. and they wined and dined her there because there was this california woman who's gonna build a movie studio in south carolina. it was gonna be great. narrator: but the south carolina project falls apart when local officials say carissa carpenter fails to make down payments and misses deadlines. the heat was really turned up on her because the people that she was dealing with in south carolina were not like me, where, "eh, i made a bad decision, time to move on." they felt that they were wronged. they felt that they were misled. and then that project fizzled. she just disappeared. narrator: next on "american greed"... carissa carpenter's scheme has unexpected consequences. anyway, i just, uh... i just can't take it anymore. i was shocked. i was deva

she first met elizabeth cady stanton in 1840 and elizabeth cady stanton was younger than her. she was 22 years younger than her. and when they met, they met in sort of unlikely place which was at the world's antislavery convention in london england in 1840. you have two americans meeting in london. and they -- they had other connections. but lucretia mott was there as a delegate from various american antislavery societies. so she was officially there to attend the world's antislavery convention. elizabeth cady stanton was there on her honeymoon. she had just married an abolitionist named harry stanton. but the two women, i think, instantly connected and elizabeth cady stanton later described lucretia mott as a revelation of womanhood. i had never met a woman like this before and i didn't know that it was possible for women to be so outspoken and independent. so she really became an admirer of lucretia mott. elizabeth cady stanton referred to lucretia mott as the moving spirit of the seneca falls convention. but it was a label that lucretia mott rejected. she said, oh, no, eliz

elizabeth katy stanton was there on her honeymoon, just married an abolitionist named henry stanton, it was a european tour versus a political journey as it was for lucretia mott but the two women, i think, instantly connected and elizabeth katy stanton later described lucretia mott as a revelation of womanhood, i had never met a woman like this before and i didn't know it was possible for women to be so outspoken and independent so she really became an admirer of lucretia mott. elizabeth katy stanton referred to lucretia mott as the moving spirit of the seneca falls convention in 1848 but it was actually a label that lucretia mott rejected she said, oh, no, elizabeth, you should claim that for yourself. it was really your idea. but, you know t fact is that it was the fact that lucretia mott was in the area but the convention was held and her presence was advertised to draw attendees. so her sister lived in auburn, new york, not far from seneca falls so she would come up to central new york regularly. when she came up in 1848 she was actually engaged in a number of different activiti

elizabeth cady stanton was there on her honeymoon.she had just married an abolitionist named henry stanton. for her it was more of a european tour than a political journey for her. but the two women instantly connected. elizabeth cady stanton later described lucretia as a revelation of womanhood. she said i did not know it was possible for women to be so outspoken and independent. she really became an admirer of lucretia mott. she referred to her as the moving spirit of the seneca falls convention of 1848. it was a label lucretia mott rejected. she said elizabeth, you should claim that for yourself. but the fact was, it was the fact that lucretia mott was in the area that the convention was held and her presence was advertised to draw attendees. she would come up to this part of the country regularly to central new york. when she came up in 1848, she was engaged in a number of activities. she attended an annual quaker meeting. the genesee early meeting. she traveled to ontario, canada, to visit former slaves, american slaves who had f

anthony and stanton say vile racist things.he friendship with douglass is repaired, between them, the personal one. and he still attends women's rights conventions, for the rest of his life. in fact, he dies in 1895, just a few hours after attending a women's rights convention in washington. and so the idea that he truly, truly believes in women's rights is borne out and it is actually a beautiful story. and he maintains that, even when he is betrayed himself, by the suffragists. host: so it seems as though phase two of this after the 14th and 15th amendments were passed began in the 1870's and 1880's. the first legislation want to -- went to congress in 1878. guest: there were a couple of attempts before that, in this house and senate. those did not go far at all. finally, in 1878, stanton and anthony work with their friends in congress, and they get it actually introduced. and it is stalled there for the next 40 years. 40 years. every year, the suffragists go up and testify before whatever house and senate committee is hearin

in fact, francis harper comes to face off against both douglas and stanton if you will because she wantsto speak about by restriction once to speak about sexual violence. she wants to speak about the specific plight of african-american women in the country and then the face of freedom and in the struggle around citizenship. she doesn't get the hearing that she might in that meeting but her ideas leave a legacy that black women will pick up and work on and work through we could say even intel today. >> you also note how frances harper think white women speak of rights that black women speak of wrongs, , which i thought waa kind of perfect encapsulation. i really appreciate you bringing up the primary win barack obama was facing off with hillary clinton because i went and interviewed a lot of black women during the next presidential primary when hillary clinton was of course running to replace barack obama. they spoke about how painful it was having to make that choice, what they felt was making a choice between, because they knew both of them are qualified and would make an excellent pres

sent word to the secretary for stanton, in washington, d.c.. word is starting to spread outside of the region, that stuart is on the move, and causing destruction. meanwhile, in chambersburg, the confederates paroled the union, meanwhile it escaped enslaved men, women, and children escaped fearful of being taken back into bondage, by the confederate raiders. the confederates found that the chambers bank was empty, and did more shopping in the stores of the area. one story house that had ammunition was burned. according to a union soldier, who was keeping track of the events of the raid, the confederates took 700 muskets, 400 pistols, 468 ammunition boxes, 200 uniforms, various safer's and belts. some of the supplies which the confederate took the union had come -- confiscated during the maryland campaign. this union soldier also

and eloquent to be all bound up together with the elizabeth cady stanton view and as a black woman of racism and sexism. will be lifted up and be empowered politically and then to verify white women or black men. and if it does violence to black women in because wants to speak about violence or sexual violence or speak about the pride of african-american women in the country and in the face of freedom and in the struggle around citizenship so to leave a legacy that black women would pick up the black women speak of wrongs that regulation. so i appreciate you writing about the queries where barack obama so i went and interviewed a lot of black women and when hillary clinton was running to is barack obama. so then how painful it is to make that choice and what qualified but then to choose their race or whether gender but then they felt they had to indicate by supporting hillary clinton and i heard that again and again. so it seems that struggle, how can that be resolved in this country based on the foundation upon which it was built? [laughter] >> i will tell you what i think about eliz

the westernike lunatic asylum in stanton, another reason why stanton was called the great opium city of the day. they took in dozens of cases of opiate addicted civil war veterans after the civil war who could not seem to shake what was called the opium habit on their own after leaving the army and taking off their uniforms. beginning in the 1860's, asylums like western state all around the nation saw this huge spike in commitments for opiate addiction. i think these facilities, like western state, or the pinel hospital, as america's first drug rehabs. in asylums and facilities, veterans would usually be weaned off of opiates over a two week or a month period, and hypothetically released. although we focused on the shenandoah valley in virginia, by no means was the problem of opiate addiction unique to virginia. it was a national problem. 1872, thee, in massachusetts board of health began investigating the problem of opiate addiction in cities like boston. they found a boston pharmacist who attested " veteran soldiers as a class are addicted to opiates." so there was this reputation

up together in one great bundle of humanity it's a way of saying i'm not going -- elizabeth cady stantoninterview about how to go forward or like frederick douglass. in fact, i think it is a black one because i live in a crossroads that racism and sexism, i should be at the center women like me should be at the center because this coalition manages to lift me up we will all be lifted up politically. we'll all be empowered politically. but my point is that store is often told. i do to vilify women were vilified black men but in both instances it is the story told that there is a kind of violence to black women as if they were not there, as if -- in fact, francis watkins harper face-off against both douglass douglas f you will because she wants to speak about pilots can speak about sexual violence. she wants to speak about those specific plight of african-american women in the country and in the face of freedom and in the struggle around citizenship. she doesn't get the hearings that she might in that meeting, but her ideas leave a legacy that black women will pick up and work on in work t

susan anthony, stanton, lucy stone, were all pelted with rotten eggs, and spoiled vegetables. susan anthony, the great organizer and traveled the country back and forth every year, used to say she can mark the progress of the movement by the kind of projectiles that were thrown at her. [laughter] when there were no longer rotten eggs, just just plain eggs, that was progress. they are attacked by gangs of angry men and boys all the time. they are thrown from their floats and parades. their banners were accosted and ripped in half. their clothes are ripped. they were used to a certain amount of violence. but once the picketing begins, and once president woodrow wilson, who is very embarrassed by this, in front of the white house. and they are also in lafayette park. just this summer, we saw protesters in lafayette park be arrested. and all i could think of was well, that is just how the suffragists were arrested in lafayette park for demonstrating. and only exercising their first amendment rights of assembly. but the women's party suffragists are arrested, on really bogus legal

now stanton has been very vocal about how it does want to be a bigger payments processor. it's been building up a subsidiary. and actually yesterday, it announced that it could be spinning off that subsidiary into its own separate companies. so they're definitely trying to make a name for themselves and payment processing, and this is a part of their european expansion. so there's this whole wire occur saga of billions missing and all the ramifications is that over now? i don't think so. i think sort of in the vein of enron or diesel gate. this is a scandal that will really be with us for many years and part there are still some, some procedural hurdles to winding down the actual business. but there's still also many criminal investigations. there's a parliamentary inquiry into this scandal, there's the missing c.f.o. young marsala, who was seen as the middleman or the mastermind behind this scandal. so i think we'll be hearing about this for many more years. and then in frankfurt, thank you. it's to bali now and the indonesian island relies heavily on tourism, but since a

early in 1960, she's with stanton, lucretia mott the other white suffragists who were pushing the needleting to get within those ranks and there was great tension. this is something we've got to reckon with as we celebrate the rights of women. we know black women don't receive that, or at least it's withdrawn from them over time. she's worked with these white suffragists. they are abolitionist, they were all involved in slavery and help her financially and helped her friends and family so they were allies and that perspective but many were quite angry that black men had been given the right to vote they were still shut out. they still were disenfranchised and she felt she had to choose but she didn't. she eventually walked that line which is amazing. she was a politician in part because she had relationship with this older generation of white women involved in abolition but then you have other people ida b wells who are pushing a different agenda tubman manages to walk the line between them. she's connected to white suffragists as well as new black women movement pushing for the right to

you may recall some images of elizabeth cady stanton and susan b. anthony looking over some papers to push forward for the suffrage rights. the silent sentinels that were standing out in front of the white house in linkin park. even today in protests, but they were there, petitioning against woodrow wilson. jailedwomen who were during these movements. when you think of those images, do you see black women? present in those images? more often than not, you don't, because those images are reflective of how the story have charge of who was in those stories. the black women who worked as hard as anyone else working towards suffrage, who were able tohere, were not be represented in a full way. they were often marginalized. their stories were marginalized. well,is body knows very after the congress we went through in the last month, the stories of ida b wells barnett and mary church terrell, and my favorite, maggio walker, who we will talk a little bit more about and use her as an example to open up these stories that we were telling in the commemoration

telegraph message out and send it to the pennsylvania governor who then sent word to the secretary of war stanton in washington, d.c. word is starting to spread outside of the region that stewart is on the move and causing destruction. meanwhile, in chambersburg, the confederates parole to the wounded and enscapscaped people. they found the bank was empty and did more shopping in the stores of the area. one storehouse that had ammunition was burned. according to a union soldier who is keeping track of events of the raid, the confederates took 700 muskets, 400 pistol, 468 ammunition boxes, 200 uniforms, various sabers and belts. some of the supplies the union had captured from long street during the maryland campaign. more horses and more mules were rounded up. this union soldier mentioned there was some african-americans who were captured and taken back to the south and slavery. publish buildings were burned with an estimated cost of about $250,000. -- $100,000. excuse me. stewart spent time planting misinformation about his command, how many troops he had with them, and what his intentions were.

that is something that, incidentally, makes the secretary of war at wooden stanton very pleased because they don't want to spend more money than is necessary either. on the confederate side of things, they did not have as formal in administrative structure when it came to the p.o.w. camps. the closest they came was their provost marshal. this is sean winder, who was provost marshal of richmond, virginia. asked when the war started, he will be placed more or less in charge of the p.o.w. facilities in richmond itself. that's primarily where they're p.o.w. facilities will remain for quite some time. only later near the end of the war do they make this in any way more formal. winder is an interesting guy. he's a west point graduate. he was a tactics instructor a little bit after is graduation. a mexican war veteran. known for gallantry in the field. he has more of an administrative capacity then hoffman did, but he has less authority, much less authority than his union opposite. so the p.o.w. issue comes to a head at shiloh. shiloh is really the big battle early in the war. it is a battle t

that's something that incidentally, makes the secretary of war, simon cameron, but also stanton real picky. elsewhere we like it because they don't want to spend any more money than they have to either. on the confederate side of things, they did not have and the same formal as an informal structure. the closer they came the closest they came was this provost marshal of richmond virginia. and when the war started, he would be placed in charge of the p.o.w. facilities in richmond itself. that is primarily where the p.o.w. facilities will remain for quite some time. only later, near the end of the war do they make this anyway more formal. he is an interesting guy, he is a west point graduate, and he was a mexican war that, and riveted for gallantry in the field and he has more of an administrative capacity more than huffman did but has less authority, much less authority than his union opposite. so the p.o.w. issue comes to a head at shiloh. shiloh is the big battle early in the war. it is a battle that opened up the ayes to the north and south, how long and how bloody this war will re

this is happening as abraham lincoln and henry halep and and wind stanton are trying to prod george mcclelland and the arm of the potomac to begin its next campaign into virginia. with the reconnaissance shows is that the value still heavily defended by confederate forces. what's just a couple of days later, george mcclelland will not look west of the blue ridge mountains, but instead will look to the east side, specifically the area between the blue ridge mountains on the west and the bull run mountains on the east. that will fame -- frame the loudoun valley, the epicenter of becoming campaign. the morning of october 21st, a force under the command of john garry, someone familiar with loudoun accountable for the war. he had actually been head of an iron works alongside the potomac river. he would come with a combined force of infantry, cavalry and artillery. the begin making a you movement through the short hills and up from harpers ferry. on their way back, they did not find much, but the six new york cavalry under the command of duncan mcvicker is going to clash with elements of the 35th vi

in force there in the shenandoah valley and all of this is happening as abraham lincoln and edwin stanton are continuing to try to prod george mclellan in the army of the potomac to begin its next campaign into virginia. so what these reconnaissances show is that the shenandoah valley still has confederate forces. just a couple of days later, george mclellan will not look west of the blue ridge mountains and instead will look to the east side of the blue ridge mountains and specifically the area between the blue ridge mountains on the west and the bull run or catokton mountains on the east which will frame the loudoun valley which is going to be the epicenter of the coming campaign. the morning of october 21st, a force under the command of john gary, somebody very familiar with loudoun county before the war, gary had actually been head of an iron works along the potomac river in loudoun county and this was familiar territory for him, but gary would come with a combined force of infantry, artillery and cavalry into the loudoun valley. you will see their route with the blue arrows on the ma

and this effectively, since may of 1862, with edward stanton creating order number 60, essentially made medical personnel neutral over the course of the rest of the war. at this point it did turn into a fight of life or death where medical personnel both for the union and confederate soldiers were trying to save as many lives as possible. but at this point, you have several other challenges that illuminate themselves over the course of the civil war. and one of the biggest ones is the increase in casualties. remember, for the battle of first monassis, you have about 3 3500 casualties in one day. for example, for antetum, for one day would reach 17,000. in gettysburg, it would create 33,000 wounded soldiers. this created several issues in terms of food supply, medical supply, staffing that now the medical department for both the north and the south are overwhelmed to try and save as many lives as possible. and one example in the battle of antetum, a new york tribune reporter making his way to the battlefield on september 18 remarked what he saw. he said, the wounded are coming in by the

sword's confirmed and i hated it tauriel meetings and so i was probably the only available reporter at stanton that say because everyone was in the meeting and the receptionist put a call through to me and the caller told me about come eggs and he was constrained to the piece i have to admit i'd never heard of come x. before but when the person mentioned the names of several german investors large my ears pricked up because one of the investors was casten mushmouth. as well as entrepreneur carsten marsh meyer there was meat industry boss and shall go soccer club chairman clemens tanya's and drugstore king air of an mierda these mega rich germans are said to have poured millions into what were attractive investments with high returns all 3 say they didn't know they were involved in suspected come x. transactions they later took action against the bank that allegedly invested their money in the dubious deals. journalist all of us were and had tasted blood even at this early stage the story was incredible in switzerland he met with informants from the secretive banking world who passed on confide

it should be a roll call, herschel walker and jones and angie stanton. senator tim scott.meron. all of you all. spoke at the conventioconventio. all talking about blacks for trump. you are seeing what is happening here. this is why they should lose in georgia. i hope black folks turn out like they did for nelson mandela in south africa because we need a massive new voter law to restore the voting rights act and show these republicans who want to continue to attack black people that you will pay a price for this and shame on trump and any republican who is silent about what he is doing. >> roland, you get the venmo prize for mentioning nelson mande mande mande mandela 30 minutes in the show. you and i were on together the night the canvassers in the city of detroit in wayne county first voted not to certify and then voted to certify. since then, i have been hearing from people whose level of alarm about the outcome of the election has raised because they are saying if there is anything to this, if transparendonald tr influence legislators in michigan to fiddle with the elec

some of its authors of the early volumes includeds elizabeth cady stanton and susan anthony. and these volumes are almost 6,000 pages. they take up a lot of room on the shelf. and i think for a long time we came to those volumes, too much thinking they might be even comprehensive. and it took some critical reading of those volumes by women historians for us to understand, and i will mention dr. roslyn tovork penn, who in the 1970s publishes a paper that reads those critically from the opinion of african-americans and what we learn while those volumes are impressive and important, left out a great deal of the history of women's suffrage despite the title, and especially ee lighted the roles that black american women played in the long struggle for the vote. so we inherited some sorts that had to be taken on, and then we do the work of producing new histories that begin to, as you suggest, tell a much more complex and perhaps critical version of this story. and i think we are still struggling with that. some of you may have encountered some of the dust-ups surrounding the monum
