university wants to do. and this is a terrible idea and really tarnishes the reputation of the universities of north carolina. and thank god they didn't take the tenure as well. >> age on that point, this really concerns me, peter said, hit the nail on the head. the fact that this should matter. especially journalism, it's not even as if we are talking about did she get the facts correct but came to a different conclusion. were talking about literally got facts wrong. it and another who i have an enormous rent amount of respect for, and a minimum graduate school. gordon, he said there are concerning documents where she get it wrong. if you criticize our just like were saying now, if you criticize her, she considers that races more populous but he is not getting the facts correct. and she will be teaching and journalism tool wear. we should expect that should be correct printed and if you want to be in an opinion person to come up with a different opinion, that is fine. but she is not even open to let her facts are challenge of correcting those mistakes. it is problematic. it's especially problematic for jour

presumably you knew there was a study done by the university of north carolina in 2015, and they workednfusion gets when you conflate things. if you're trying to find out if it was lab—adapted, you look at what the coronavirus is, what the sars—cov—2 is. and you look at the sequences of it and you try to see an evolutionary movement towards that in the environment, or something in the lab that's closely similar to that. what was made in the laboratory in north carolina was not anything that anybody would say was close enough to have been an evolution from that virus that was worked with in the north carolina to sars—cov—2. but if what you're trying to say is, if you can manipulate a virus, could they have done this in a surreptitious way without anybody knowing it? there is always that possibility since you never know everything that's going on. but again, getting back to what i said before when you look at the circumstances as well as the molecular makeup of the virus, notjust me who's been attacked by the far right — but scientists who, in good faith, make statements whom none of the

debate raging over whether the university of north carolina should give tenure to "new york times" reporter jones founder of the 1619 project. the university unc hired her last summer as a prestigious journalism chair. michael goodwin warns the outcome will signal whether traditional standards of journalism can survive. the onslaught of radical advocacy the times embraces. michael goodwin joins me now. michael, break this down for us and why are you sending alarm bells over this? >> well, harris, on one side you have as you said nicole hannah jones and the 1619 project that she wrote. that seems to be all that she is qualified by. so therefore she would get this chair at unc journalism school. and be really the star of the department. on the other side who is opposing this is a man named walter hasman, he owns a string of newspapers, magazines and television stations in the south and west, chattanooga and arkansas and the major donator. he donated $25 million. he is in the process of donating $25 million. one of the things he does is 11 newspapers is every day he prints a code of core value

[indiscernible] but i do think that the issue points back to this larger conversation that [indiscernible] and i think that that's [indiscernible] with the students of something i hope the university [indiscernible] is a country that we don't lose our daily freedom of thought and [indiscernible]. >> laura: well, wha

a brochure from the university of north carolina declared a mission of women, but not men. was restricted only to those who were especially well qualified. university of michigan, more qualified female students applied and male students, so the school adjusted its requirements to make sure girls were always less than half of the freshman class. he didn't want in over balance of females. and then here's a few more. high school athletics in fairfax county virginia, this school system spent nine dollars on boys themes for every one dollar on girls. parents and coaches had to mow and lined the girls sized fall feels their selves. girls teams were never announced in the morning announcements of the previous night's game scores. in waco texas, the school system spent 250,000 dollars a year to field boy sports and 900 on girl sports. and they reported, it's just not part of our culture here in waco. okay, so you can see regionally and locally, everybody had an opinion. all right, so what's really starts to change? well, one of the big things in this lawsuits. and we don't really se

prize-winning journalist nikole hannah-jones says she will not join the faculty of the university of north carolinaat chapel hill next month without tenure. hannah-jones, creator of the 1619 project, says political interference and influence led to the school board's decision to deny her tenure, which drew protest and sharp criticism from faculty, students, fellow academics, and some funders. -- some donors. and new yorkers voted in highly dissipative primary election tuesday. in the heated mayoral race, brooklyn borough president and former new york police officer eric adams is leading with over 31% of the vote, but it will likely take several weeks to announce a winner with the new ranked choice voting system. civil rights attorney maya wiley is currently in second place with 22% of the vote, followed closely by former sanitation commissioner kathryn garcia. 2020 presidential candidate andrew yang has conceded after receiving less than 12% of the tallied vote. journalist ross barkan, who has written critically about adams, said he and other reporters were barred from adams' election night party.

juanita sydney powell continues to make the university of north carolina law school so proud, i'm guessingif trump is going back on the road, is that worse news for republicans or democrats? >> i feel it's worse news for republicans because what they have benefited from is him being out of the spotlight, as we know reasonably questionable blogger at this stage. also potentially facing indictment. him being on the trail is absolutely something they are going to have to respond to and confront because they are still trying to attract the same base we know trump goes out and royals up at every single rally or that he's ever held. when i look at these teams from powell or other people at the qanon event, which is identified as a domestic terrorist organization it's like they're trying to roll out the carpet for trump. they're trying to lay the landing strip for him to come in, pick up the same message about the big lie, and continue to do damage to our democracy. >> bill crystal, i had this conversation with michael bash loss last night. i tried to grow up a patriotic kid who paid attention. w

amy: professor, i want to ask you about the backlash growing after the university of north carolina chapelill, nearby you at duke, denied tenure to the pulitzer prize-winning journalist nicole hannah jones, best known for producing the 1619 project with "the new york times," which re-examines a legacy of slavery. can you talk about what this means, the denial of tenure and why you care so much about this issue? >> i would like to cast this in the context of a wider attempt to censor the development and advancement of an accurate story of america's history with respect to racial injustice. race is so heavily infused in america' story that to remove race and racism from the conversation, as many, many legislators around the country are attempting to do in this moment, i would suggest that is actually deep tragedy and a consequence of the failure of the country to do something that krtin mullen and i refer to as deconfederatize. we think of the aftermath of world war ii in germany, there are many complaints we can raise about what the german population did. but one thing they did not do is cr

. >> doctor, i was really interested to read something that the researchers of the university of north carolinahey determined they think vaccines alone will not end the pandemic but then you look at our graph that we just put up in terms of what's happened to cases since the vaccine has come on the scene, it does seem like a vaccine's going to end the pandemic, if everybody gets vaccinated. so, what's that about? >> well, i think -- so, we did a similar modeling exercise last year with bruce lee's group at city university of new york and i think the difference is they only looked at percentage of vaccinated adults. i think they looked at 25%, 50%, 75% of adults and we looked at the whole population, so i think the key is when you have highly transmission variants like the b.1.1.7 variant, what that means is we're going to have to achieve 75%, 80% of the entire u.s. population. that basically means all of the adults and all of the adolescents and that is a very high bar so yes, i do think we can vaccinate our way out of this epidemic in the united states but it's a high bar and all the adults, a
