but i found it in a university of michigan library and tried to find out where to get a copy. and it had been out of print and copies cost like usually more than 150, if not more than $300. so that was one of my motivations, was that i think it should be widely available and until now it is a collector's item and a book the average person can't get and not available in any bookstore in springfield illinois, or here. , and the audience in the 21st century. and it was donated to us. several of the stories, william slayed, mary dine are important. washington had a second book prompt he also wanted to see done.

students certainly students of color as we've seen even at institutions ideal university black students can't even study in the library without the cops being called on them so i'm not sure what the and sense of it was i think that as we heard from some of the students the poor execution you know the name of the group having to be changed from lighter weight is an indication that they pretty much aren't very educated on the issues of racism in the first place and this would have been a good idea right in the first place of being more inclusive and maybe including some anti oppression trainers who are very versed in this even way to a person trainer such as dr robin d'angelo who is a white woman who of course coined the phrase white fragility so there's nothing wrong of course it's very important it's imperative to have these discussions on college campuses and many facets but this idea of white people needing to feel safe in this country right now is pretty ridiculous and that's the local machine opinion on that it wasn't something that was needed and is it ok to have an organization like this. oh sure perfectly fine

see him all the time, we were sort of in the same bubble at university where you're living in the same area as people, you're studying, the library the social spaces are all the same, so that didn't feel very feasible to me. so i sort of suppressed what happened, didn't really tell anyone and then just acted like normal until i graduated. so what has changed and is it enough? i've logged on to the university of bristol website ? and there's a tool called report and support, where you can report an assault anonymously, or request that an advisor gets in touch with you. it seems a bit clinical, but it's an improvement on what was available to hannah back in 2014. so has the university of bristol learnt from what happened to hannah? so hannah talked to us about her experience only after she'd left the university. and i feel very saddened that hannah didn't have the confidence in the university to feel that if she were to approach someone, her concerns would be listened to and that she would be able to access the kind of support that at that time i imagine could have been very helpful for her. we are planning something we're calling

i had the privilege of running a program at the university of virginia for about eight years before i became the director of the nixon library and one of the things i learned -- i learned a lot, but one of the things i learned was that we historians have a habit of slicing and dicing history. we become experts in certain fields. somebody will write about vietnam, somebody will write about cuba. presidents don't have the luxury of dividing their time that way. the tapes reveal their constantly making decisions on the fly. they have to operate on less information than you assume. they have to trade off sometimes. they're worried about something at one part of the world and something else somewhere else. so i thought we have all of these tapes from the kennedy era a taped about 260 hours. most of them are not about cuba. i made a point of thinking about doing this book and then i went to work for the government and learned a lot about nixon and that's a different story. since that time, i've learned that if you use the tapes you can see a different kennedy. also that materials get declassified. there were important materials th
