yes, thomas jefferson was a founding father. however, he is a slave owner. and morally that was wrong. and how do we become a more moralistic country. and i think if schools start with that, i think we would get where we need to be. i may not be here, but it will happen. >> i think, one, really admitting the truths of what happened on august 11th and 12th and july 8th, i think really confronting the injustices. there are a number of instances of things that happened on campus that we've never really taken accountability for and gone head on into issues whether it's about race or gender or different types of violence that's happened on grounds. i think really having a conversation with each other and having a president that is willing to have that hard conversation about how do we fix this, how do we go past this. i think recognizing the importance of the charlottesville community and stop pushing out people and making it unaffordable for people who are from charlottesville to be able to live in charlottesville. i also think they need to pay their workers a l

home, thomas jefferson gave the decree that all men are created equal, he wrote the preamble to the declaration of independence but how do you square that with the fact that he was a slave owner and how did you address the issue? how did he address that issue? he was a slave owner who thought all men were created equal? >> i don't, i can't, i don't understand it nor do i understand the fact that he destroyed every letter he wrote to his wife and every letter she ever wrote to him. we know nothing, we don't even know what she looked like. i can't understand that. i can't understand that he kept a very close track of every sense, every time he ever spent on anything, financial records, but never added it up. >> host: that was why he was probably bankrupt. >> guest: he was never out of debt from the time he was a young man, just kept spending. i don't understand it. i also don't understand where did that genius come from. the man was a genius. if he was nothing but an architect, that alone would qualify him to be somebody we should all know about. and he served a brilliant service that

and, you know, what i was taught about thomas jefferson growing up, was that thomas jefferson was a brilliantal founding father of this country, responsible for the declaration of independence and helped create the constitution. and that he is the sort of paragon of our ideals. that he represents the best of our intellectual and national aspirations for who we want to be as a country. what i was never taught, and what i read the years later in notes in the state of virginia, his memoir, manifesto, is that thomas jefferson thought very explicitly that black people were inferior and wrote about it clearly. says that black people are both in the context of mind and boy n inferior to that of the white man. he talked about phyllis wheatley, who was the first published african-american poet in the history of the united states. he said that black people didn't have the intellectual or artistic capacity to create art, so he was like, we can call this something else, but we shouldn't call it poetry, because black people do not possess the emotional girth or emotional capacity to create beautiful thing

thomas jefferson was primarily from the development or the push for independence until the 1820s. on the eve of the abolitionist movement and william lloyd garrison come the third character from the abolitionist movement in the 1830s until the end of reconstruction and then dubois from reconstruction until civil rights and then angela davis from civil rights to this day. i also wanted characters whose lives were adjusting. in the case of cotton mather, he imagined christians had white souls. he was encouraging white people to become christians so you can have a white soul too. thomas jefferson of course everyone knows the way in which his story was so interesting and in many ways contradictory. william lloyd garrison. he was very important in creating this very important. particularly within the progressive community that discrimination is making black people inferior. in his case it was slavery. slavery wasn't just dehumanizing it was literally making black people into sub humans come into what he would call -- and that theory within the progressive community carries on through t

when you forget about the history of thomas jefferson, those things are to be called out, too. as far as the white nationalists movement, i could not do more to did test it. -- detest it. my party is not happy with me where i stand on issues. we need to have honest discussions. that is free speech. host: from tallahassee, florida, on our republican line. good morning. caller: good morning. i actually agree with the gentleman that just spoke. i said to the screener was about the intersection of propaganda and free speech. in this country, i have been in here in, texas a&m phd, florida with an elder this weekend, and i know well, and texas a&m is not considered a league, and i know well that we have had this debate with regard to the history. lincolnite. i am an african american. i know very well what this is about. this is about propaganda, a propaganda that now has become you want to make it politically correct. this van has an intellectual capacity of mine, but he is trying to couch it in a perspective of a national white, and i have a 90-year-old and an-american mother nite,y

i wonder, is it george washington next week, and is it thomas jefferson the week after? you know, you really do have to ask yourself, where does it stop? >> stephen: okay. "self, where does it stop?" i'm going to say it stops at the people who tried to destroy the country that george washington and thomas jefferson founded. but i'm just spitballing. i'm just-- that's just me. ( cheers and applause ) >> jon: i think you got it. >> stephen: i don't know. let's be fair, jon. you have to be fair, jon. >> jon: no, that's pretty fair. >> stephen: then trump continued to attack-- and i can't believe i'm saying this-- george washington. >> george washington was a slave owner. was george washington a slave owner? >> yes, he was. >> so will george washington now lose his status? are we going to take down-- excuse me. are we going to take down-- are we going to take down statues to george washington? >> stephen: spoken like a guy who's suspiciously worried that racist presidents don't get statues anymore. ( cheers and applause ) ( laughter ) ( applause ) "are we gonna-- what do i?

this time it is thomas jefferson was coming to fire.ead to this, the shocking story now of what was done to the statue of the man who drafted our declaration of independence. governor mike huckabee is here with some reaction to that. maas, who was behind crafting a message for trump in the white house? these women. so where is the feminist praise for all of the women who are in very high power positions in the white house these days? are they going to have a big magazine spread to celebrate them? jessica tarlov ways and when we come back. ♪ and you look amazing...ly comfortable. when your v-neck looks more like a u-neck... that's when you know it's half-washed. add downy to keep your collars from stretching. unlike detergent alone, downy conditions to smooth... ...and strengthen fibers. so, don't half-wash it. downy and it's done. w...i was always searching for ways to manage my symptoms. i thought i had it covered. then i realized managing was all i was doing. when i finally told my doctor, he said humira was for people like me who hav

lee statue while at the same time you're marching through thomas jefferson's grounds basically? >> yeah. and i think you're, i think one of the ways in which i show this in the text is to show the ways in which the confederacy and confederate leaders expressed segregationist ideas, horrificically segregationist ideas, but those ideas did not go away with the confederacy. and those ideas continued and persist and even still exist today. and so in many ways what the confederacy represented ideologically and what they tried to achieve from a policy standpoint on some level actually occurred in the united states under the u.s. flag. and i think that's what people, in trying to sort of separate the confederacy from america, we should certainly separate it, but then we should simultaneously recognize the ways in which it's interlocking, right? and how many former confederate leaders particularly after the fall of reconstruction became u.s. senators, became congressmen, became leaders in the south, right? and that's basically the history. so, you know, i think that's it's certainly whe

in that context i took a look at what thomas jefferson had to say about indigenous people. and it's not far from the heart of thomas jefferson and the in the declaration of independence which he wrote he refers to indians as merciless savages. later on he calls for the extermination. they profess to be a renaissance man who was the founder of the university considered to be at monticello where the house was. the greatest person for standing for liberty in american history who believe in genocide of the people. you could just exterminate the people you didn't like. we have to start dismantling the smiths. that doesn't mean you can't admire jefferson's writings. or that they kept track of the temperature. while he was exercising. taking care of his garden for three hours. and working with his slaves. and running the country or been in france none of these things could have possibly have happened at the same time. these are the kinds of myths that grow up around this person. it's important --dash make important to undo the myths. pay workers a living wage. this is unbelievable

after you get mad at him you get mad at thomas jefferson. i know that is tough, i know that is tough, but i am just saying for real. why is it we can't take serious criticism, a lot of white folks haven't informed yourselves enough. a white guy wrote a book about when white folks get hooked up, no complaints then. the g.i. bill enjoyed by white folks, created middle-class, gave you a seat in school, extra points on the test, and a job. that is the holy trinity. if we can get that, the average -- a lot of white people go i am not rich. when you talk about white privilege let me tell you the greatest white privilege area, one of them. you are walking down the street, run up on a cop, having interaction, you are not dead. you won't have a bunch of money, just the right color in the right place at the right time. not saying white folks don't get assaulted by police. i'm talking about the disproportionate number of people of color, black and brown in particular including many women who are victimized by white supremacy. i just think what i do and

thomas jefferson was talking about religious freedom. let me tell you what he said in the bill for religious freedom which i had right here. except my point yes or no. thomas jefferson said in a head too. the first amendment does not require you to acknowledge god. he have to understand that is right. i would like to talk to you about the ten commandments because you say that they are the purpose of the law. any talk about thomas jefferson and what he believed. there is that bill for religious freedom in the first sentence it says will aware that the opinions and beliefs of men depend not on their own will but their mind that all mighty god has created the mind free and manifested its supreme will by making it all together it's acceptable of restraint. that does not support putting the could christian i disagree with you. i think putting a monument to knowledge that god has been acceptable throughout her history and is not permitted by the first amendment. there is a test that the supreme court generally uses they can't address the law a

it's designed to be it is by the declaration of independence by the constitution and by what thomas jefferson called the empire of liberty is just you know we've were we emerge from one hundred years of war from world war one to world war two to the cold war to the invasion of iraq it takes a while for the culture to change i wish i'm not judging it in my little way that it change faster but it is the tides of history are very much on the sides of peace and politicians who put the who who swim with the tides of history rather than again the tides of history tend to win and they like to win so i just want to talk about trump's future his approval ratings is at a record low just thirty five percent according to gallup polling institute some polls suggest that more than forty percent support impeaching the president and this opinion was the worst by several congressmen as well how do you estimate trump chances to serve out his first term in full. i wish president trump the best i wish him success even a prominent republican senator recently went on record as expressing that wish i don't have a c

hot mess ever since the first election after george washington always the the insults between thomas jefferson and john adams who at the election after george washington who was elected by consensus were so vicious that they make our current hot mess look practically tame by comparison so this is always been the case and we shouldn't romanticize what the past has been we've managed to muddle through the the the tabloid nature of politics because the people are wise collectively are very wise if you've been saying that trump is committed to peace but then with alll the baloch as remarks about north korea lately like the fire interview or his staff it afghan troops are it's again all that do you still think so yes he had to be dragged into the a modest afghan troops surge by his generals he clearly was very resistant to the idea and gave an ok to a very token increase in the forces there. and but yes he he likes to he likes to talk tough when it comes to people who insult him or people who you feel are threatening him or america's interests he likes to tweet tough he got in he gauged a very toug

what do you think of thomas jefferson? >> i do love thomas jefferson. >> good. we going to take down the statue because he was a major slave owner. are we going to take down his statue? you know what, it's fine. you're changing history. you're changing culture. >> president trump tweeted, sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments. you can't change history, but you can learn from it. robert e. lee, stonewall jackson. who's next? washington, jefferson, so foolish. also the beauty that is being taken out of our cities, towns and parks will be greatly missed and never able to be comparably replaced. of course, every confederate statue could be replaced by a statue to a soldier or a distinguished general who actually fought in battle for the united states of america instead of against the united states of america. there are hundreds of war heroes on the union side of the civil war or world war ii who have never been recognized with statues in the united states. veter veteran jour
