states right now are looking at the role of slavery in the history of their universities many churches are vacant questions about the role that they played in supporting segregation in the united states the new york times has just started publishing a series of obituaries. women that they ignored when they had i mean important significant historical figures whose deaths were nort so this is a moment of reflection in american culture generally but it frankly it actually received strong. and i think that it might be more open i mean. you know but i absolutely agree with your point that confession is not you know right. that one repairman's but then one would use to do better in the future so the question is when a university or a magazine has said we helped shape that oppressive racial climate well then what you do about the right what is what is the next. and so the question will be former white university which is one of those universities that has acknowledged the role and slavery and the question will be for national geographic what remedial steps to take to change a social system that you were important in constructing an oppressive social system that you were struck and catherine before you k

states? >> i first taught at new york university for a couple of years. and then went to harvard. and i was a professor at harvard for 12 years. and only recently moved to stanford. so three i've given multiple guest lectures here, there, everywhere. but those three institutions is where i've spent time. >> so who are or were or can be an apostle? . >> cambridge has a remarkable institution that doesn't have anywhere. the cambridge apostles were -- are because it still exists a ociety of extreme intellectual exclusivity. it dates back to the 19th century. it was an intellectual discussion society. members would meet. give papers, be brilliant. eat sardines on toast. that's about it. doesn't sound like much, does it? but it was really and remains one of the most prestigious societys that one could be elected to. and the process of the election was an arduous one. only rarely were elections made. so the apostles remained relatively few in number. it was probably the height of its intellectual influence in the 1910's and 1920's when john en nard's was a member along with his friend o

state's republican party. like many of the other women who would join the suffrage movement, she went to college. first, the university of montana, then the famous new york school for philanthropy work. she worked in washington state for a time before becoming fully immersed in the suffrage movement. she served as an organizer for the national american women's suffrage association, traveling throughout the western states. she gave speeches on women's right to vote. in addition to montana, she spent most of her time in california working without compensation. she planned her own roots, hired bands to drum up the crowd, she put up posters, made speeches, and drew large numbers of people from the towns and surrounding countryside. meanwhile, the montana state legislature was considering making women's suffrage a referendum item. as chair of the montana state suffrage committee, rankin enlisted the support of politicians, male voters, and women were unable to vote but were, nevertheless, necessary backers of the measure. she spoke in front of the state legislature, the first woman to do so. at this time, the western states, one by one, were allowing women th

state, i don't see a problem with this. and as a matter of fact, i talked to one of the directors of our cancer institute at new york universitys morning who said he is not having trouble prescribing opioids for patients with cancer. stuart: in some states you could. >> you could, but here's the problem with this headline. it makes it seem like the bigger problem. even if we've cut down 5-10%, the bigger problem is did you need the opioids in the first place. physicians overprescribed opioids, and the bigger problem we've talked about on the show is it ends up often times in the hands of someone other than who were we were intended. maybe a teen ends up on heroin. stuart: you've said on this program there is an alternative to opioids for people who suffer from chronic pain, but there is some -- >> completely agree. i also want to the add that the nih and other places are working on pain medications all the time that are less addictive. so there's a future for that as well. but we have to watch out for those who need it, no question. stuart: on the program actor jeremy miller. i want to run a sound bite from the interview we di

states so they understand the impact of simply having a sort of, we need more wall mentality. as we have seen in new york and boston certainly, the immigration system has hurt our colleges and universities, has hurt tourism and so people should understand it's a complicated border and different kinds of immigrants. >> you think the argument by some on the right, and the president and his administration in particular, these asylum seekers once they're granted access to the united states live in some sort of an immigration limbo, they have to renew their status, they are always in that uncertain threshold of whether they're actually citizens of the united states, or citizens of another country. are reforms needed so people don't take advantage of that system? >> reporter: reforms may speed up how the status is 2kerdeterm, but it's simply not true, that people don't plant roots here, but after a judge adjudicates they can stay, they can put down roots so part of where immigration policy ought to be is we are a country that accepts people, that might be religiously persecuted, politically purse cuersecuted. it's such a small number of what's happening a that there is a concern that the righ
