one thank you for the shout out to scotch mana peppers been eating a man with because we had some trinidad literally or this weekend we bought a bottle of the sauce they barely mentioned. privileges. to it it's like the recipe fine you should do just named it something else like yeah just call whatever he wants on ok don't take yeah you. join what do you do you think because i read a definition of cultural appropriation when it comes to cooking it has to do with. one culture taken from another culture particularly that the culture they took it from is a culture that came from oppression and the culture that it is taking it didn't experience any of that oppression and if that is a fair definition can there be cultural appropriation in other words ways like can you call culturally appropriate french food or because there is an oppression involved in that that that's up for grabs. that's a really interesting question i you know the fluidity of language is often challenging when you're talking about these very important concepts and you know for me and perhaps this is the lawyer in me i like t

as a young girl from trinidad and tobago with your grandmother. what can you tell us about their story? >> my mother, who has shown me what it means to be resilient and to never give up, came to the united states with my grandmother when she was just a teenager. like many people who emigrate to the united states, they came here for a better life, initially to new york and then they made their way to las vegas. after my grandmother fell sick, my mom ended up getting trapped in a broken immigration system. so i know all too well the families that are dealing with this broken immigration policy. they want to see congress act. so when i hear from the dreamers, when i hear from tps holders, when i hear from people who are trying to seek asylum like the families i've met at the detention centers in my very own district, i listen to them. all they want is to be able to keep their families together and to live the american dream. yes, we need to secure our border, but we can do that while also respecting and having dignity for those who are seeking immigr

majel boxer, offered by history colorado el pueblo history museum, fort garland, the trinidad history museum. before we begin tonight's program in the spirit of healing and education, we acknowledge the 48 contemporary tribes with historic ties to the state of colorado. these tribes are our partners. we consult with them when we plan exhibits, collect, preserve, and interpret artifacts, do archaeological work and create educational programs. we recognize these indigenous peoples as the original inhabitants of this land. as always, i'd like to thank the crystal national heritage area and colorado state university pueblo for their continued support of the series. if you'd like to join in spot of our border land projects, we'd invite you to support the initiative at coloradogives.org, and we'll drop the link in the chat box later this evening. as you know our borderland series is offered on a donation basis only, so your support will allow us to continue and expand on events like tonight's. at this time, it's my pleasure to introduce tonight's featured guest, dr. majel boxer. an associat

brown subjects who live in the commonwealth, who live in all of these countries -- my father is from trinidad, for example. i remember my dad coming to the country when i was a child. all of these commonwealth countries do suggest not just the paternalistic relationship between the commonwealth and monarch but racist relationship that was there in the beginning and continues today. >> yeah, great conversation to have with you. thank you very much, salamishah tillett, appreciate it. >>> the oprah interview has drawn a lot of comparisons to princess diana's interview in 1995 with the bbc. both women speaking in defiance of the palace as they tried to set an independent course for their lives. meghan markle even wearing a diamond bracelet that once belonged to diana for her sit-down. and prince harry telling oprah he felt her presence during the process of stepping away from his royal duties. my next guest wrote about this for "the new york times." sara, thank you for joining me and talking about this. you wrote about how neither woman was protected by the paulus, and in that, that's something t

this week's question is coming to you from trinidad, colorado. >> hi, tiffany.olorado. what i want to know is about congress. are there any laws to keep the congress from lying to us all the time? i need to know. >> megan, you are speaking to my soul, sister, for this one. thank you so much for that amazing question. there aren't laws that can keep congress or bad actors in the media from lying to you because we have something called the first amendment which prohibits laws that restrict the freedom of speech and unfortunately that even applies to lies. as frustrating as it can be to have politicians or media operatives blatantly lie on tv day after day like you just saw in our last segment, if we started criminalizing speech, let's just say a lot of folks would be in jail along with almost all the politicians and some of us would find out what happens when keeping it real goes wrong. so careful what you say on social media, am i right? but it's a tradeoff, right? freedom of speech is pretty much sacred in this country which is why i can come on tv every week an

pressfield was born in trinidad in 1943 while his father was stationed in the navy. meanwhile, the writing rejections kept rolling in. was there a low point? >> at one point i was in new york driving a cab, dead broke, living me and my cat in this apartment. and i didn't know what else to do. you know, i was wondering whether i should hang myself or blow my brains out, and how that would affect my poor cat. but here's the positive side of that for whatever this is worth -- after a few days of utter agony, i said to myself, why don't i go to hollywood and try to be a screenwriter? >> screen writing including the forgettable "king kong lives," didn't really work out. but finally book writing did. pressfield published his first at the age of f 52. "the fanantastic: t the legend bagggger vance," later made inta movie with c charlize ththeron, stevenen pressfomatt damon andnd will smith. >> judging by how you was hitting them balls i figured out be out of harm's way -- >> and then 1998's "gates of fire" about the battle in ancient greece. one of our all-time firefightfire
