confederates became african brigade wearing the union blue. the proclamation called for the use of black men in stations and other places and vessels of all forts to service to the union. black men had been recruited from military service earlier but the president's authorization brought them officially into the federal courses for confederates, it was incontrovertible proof of lincoln's disregard for rights and their lives. free men press the president and congress to be allowed to enter the fight from its very beginning believing that valor on the battle field would earn them the freedom and rights that had not come to black people by v virtue. like many white americans of the day, lincoln doubted the fighting resolve and ability of black men and its really strange because black men had fought and all of america's wars and done so courageously so why this resistance? we certainly know why. it had nothing to do with the black man's abilities. when pressed by chicago religious leaders to embrace the idea of arming black men he ex pressed his fe

teachers to join the union. mr. frederick: well -- and, in fact, in california, the overwhelming majority of the teachers are in the union, and it's only a small percentage that have opted not to. but i would go further, justice kennedy, in saying that what we are talking about here are a range of services that they're providing. we're talking about a service fee for the state law that provides for the exclusive representative to be the union when that is voted for by a majority of the workers. and here, this court's cases have distinguished between citizens' speech, where the very teacher who might disagree with the union's position is free to go and speak publicly about that position, and employment speech, where this court's cases have been extraordinarily deferential to the government in upholding restrictions on what speech employees may make. justice kennedy: but philosophically, if you use pickering in this case, you're committing the error of composition. you're comparing a whole group of persons who have

the state of california? mr. dumont: no. i think a union that becomes an exclusive representative, under the perry case, has an official place in the functioning of the school district. but it is not it does not become an organ of the state. and that's actually a very important point. precisely because of the company union concern, what's delicate about this, from the state's point of view, is that we want if we're going to have collective bargaining, we need to have a system where there's one representative that we can deal with, and that representative has to be both a good partner for us, from our point of view, but also perceived by the employees as representing their interests, which is why -- justice roberts: but it's not -- mr. dumont: we can't take it over. excuse me. justice roberts: no. go ahead. finish. mr. dumont: well, which is why it's very important that we not fund it directly, and that we not be perceived as controlling the speech of that representative. justice roberts: it's hard to visualize this in a pure employer-employ

or destroy the european union. does this not worry you? the answer was typically a euro craddick view which was one third want to destroy that means two thirds are happy and we should continue the direction going in the present time. that logic says until 50.01 want to destroy the entity you won't listen to the voices being raised in opposition. that seems to me utterly crazy but that is the direction they are going in. that is a british exit that would provide a shock to the body politics in europe to show what happens when members become disillusioned. i see that as being a huge benefit to the european union, what the prime minister and others say, there is no reform in this referendum. >> does it matter to the british people what the united states think or what the american president thinks it should or shouldn't do? for me, how president obama will frame this, strong e.u. we know that platform does it matter what americans think? in some ways people have suggested transatlantic like you, how the us and uk specia

>> the union was called unite here. ey are hotel and casino unions what did you learn negative about the unions and their tactics about this? >> did you see anything on the other side smart that's a very good question. as far as what i witnessed firsthand, there were a lot of difficult decisions to be made. it has to do with how much you need to put the workers at risk. if i know this is an action that might get them fired, am i going to back down? or am i going to have the workers there this risk? when workers were fired, the union did their best to try to find them jobs and counsel them. one thing that really left a bad taste in my mouth, so i'll give away a little bit, there were eventually a lot of workers that were fired and we went to the national labour relations board. we filed charges against the casino. i was shocked when two prominent unions filed notices on behalf of management saying we've worked with this manager, the president of the casino at different casinos around the country and have never witnessed a

the national union party had numerous advantages. the united states army dwarfed any previous manifestation of federal power, patron age and communication. with more than half a million voting men gathered in the army, the party and power infused the purposes of the nation with the purposes of the party. soldiers received a steady stream of pamphlets and copies of the pro administration, "harper's weekly," paid for by reporters of the party but distributed through the national post office. victories on the battlefield and victories for the nation became victories for the party. the kratz hated this. the democrats centered at the new party. the union party convention was no convention at all and merely a recoreonation of king abraham and reaching into a familiar bag of villification, this might be useful to remember, that this is what people said about abraham lincoln. he is totally unfit for the position he holds. he is weak, incapable, vacillating, a time-server without either wise comprehension of the present or segacious forecast o

what is the status of the states in the union? e were endless amounts of conversation about this. lincoln was there from the very start. succession was absurd. it did not exist. succession, he said, was an there could be no constitutional right to succession. you could say you succeeded, but guess what? you have not. you are still entitled to your rights as citizens of the united states. that is going to create all kinds of mental gymnastics throughout the war. lincoln holds fast to that. it was a rebellion. he worked the rebellion. he believed it was a small group of traders responsible for that to put down the rebellion and figure out a way to get those states that can as soon as possible. had other discussions of the nature of the status of the confederacy. some conservatives, such as montgomery blair, gives a speech in rockville on october third, 1863. again, all of this is kicking off in 1863 months before the proclamation and reconstruction. blair gives a speech in which he says that lincoln's ideas of reconstruction are part

proper prom mags to the union. and again lincoln will continue along those lines throughout the war. there's a battle, of course, with congress. we all know that. congress has their own ideas about who should be responsible for reconstruction and the terms under which those states should be readmitted. even though the way davis bill in fact is not as radical as bill is portrayed as being. people at the time thought it was fairly modst changing 10% to 50% and requiring an ironclad oath instead of the oath that lipping con required. still lincoln decide to pocket the wade davis bill and takes the extraordinary measure of explaining why he's pocket vetoing it which led to a response from waive and davis. in 1864 again you have this public dispute about reconstruction that appears to be a battle over presidential versus congressional authority although in lots of ways it wasn't because lincoln always accepted the way, the reality that it was congress who had the power to see the elected representatives. that the preside

it is also debatable where the union just means to fight the war. lincoln bears considerable personal responsibility for the conduct of the war and the union army's treatment of confederate civilians. i defend lincoln's actions in most of the cases. most of his actions were justified on utilitarian grounds. they were necessary to bring about the best consequences in the long run. i also argue that in practice lincoln was utilitarian, but my defense of lincoln does not predispose the truth of utilitarianism. some of the actions that lincoln should have performe eperformed need to be utilitarians to reject these criticisms of lincoln. let's turn now to lincoln's character. abraham lincoln is generally regarded as a singularly good and virtuous human being. he walked many miles from his store to return a few pennies to someone who had been overcharged. he was an exceptionally kind person who was moved by compassion and justice. lincoln was a resolute and determined commander and chief despite his great awareness and compassion for the immense suffering

the abolition of slavery was not a union worry in 1861. the reasons to question whether the union was morally justified in fighting the american civil war at the beginning of the war, it is debatable whether the union had means to fight the war. lincoln bears considerable personal responsibility for the conduct of the war and the union army's treatment of confederate civilians. i defend lincoln's actions in almost all these cases. i argue that most of his actions were justified on utilitarian grounds. they were necessary to bring about the best consequences in the long run. i argue that in practice, lincoln was utilitarian, but my defensive lincoln does not propose the truth of utilitarianism. some of the actions critics claim lincoln should've performed, like declaring the complete abolition of slavery in all the states at the beginning of the american civil war, would have been self-defeating. we don't need to be utilitarians in order to reject these criticisms of lincoln. let's turn to lincoln's character. unlike most other important lea

the case involved a teacher who argued that no one should be forced to pay union fees. the vote was split 4-4. only eight of course after the death of justice antonin scalia. lyanne melendez is in the newsroom. the expectation was this would go the other way. >> reporter: you're right, before scalia died, it was a given he would vote against the unions and in favor of this teacher. so dan, it was an unexpected victory for the unions. here is how it work. california is one of those states that says if a teacher is represented by the union, you either pay your dues or opt out and pay a fee. by paying that fee, you get work protection and you benefit from any collective bargaining, so you get the same salary and benefits. what you don't get when you opt out is legal representation and your money doesn't go towards any political campaign backed by the union. we went one oakland teacher from a nonunion charter school who opted out in the past. >> i think that is important that we, as individuals, express ourselves politically, whether the party or an organization, it shouldn'

that was his last deed for the union. when he defected to the south, the confederacy, that did not sit well with his fellow army officers who went to west point with him. and lincoln was also furious should not that lee report to duty for the union. weddedthese characters together and have different intersections. i thought that might be interesting to know that robert e. lee was at the scene of harpers ferry. match in thelast powder keg of the civil war. although it failed, it succeeded in alarming the south and it blows. the two sides, to in a way, john brown succeeded with his revolutionary rage. -- raid. frederickbman and douglass were not revolutionaries in the same way. they were nonviolent revolutionaries. time, the two new each other with mutual friends like william lloyd garrison, the bostonian abolitionist and the philadelphia quaker and women's rights leader lucretia mott's who we discussed last time. once brought a group of 13 runaway slaves to the frederick douglass home in rochester, new york were he put them
