the gardens of the white house. we will hear from dr. susan, programs manager for the u.s. botanic garden, jim adams, horticultural manager from the united states botanic garden, and jim mcdaniel, board of directors, like our previous panel, we will hear three short presentations and then our panelists will have a short conversation moderated by dr. chapelle. please join me in welcoming our speakers. [applause] >> thank you, it is an honor to be here today to speak with you about white house gardens. both of our other panelist our named jim and both worked on white house gardens. at the end am going to let you ask questions. we are the last panel of the day and we will finish the discussion by talking about gardens that have been established and modified since the kennedy administration. so from the johnson administration on. in many different ways, the white house gardens have been inspired and used. the start out by talking about garden trends and movements that have inspired and influenced the development of the

the white house. and then, joint sessions develop later, mostly with foreign leaders that the president has those sessions. and then, you have exchanges with reporters. those are the short q&a's that take place on the south lawn with the helicopter whirling in the background, or in the roosevelt room, or the oval office, and sometimes in the cabinet room. these are much more informal sessions. then, the third types are interviews. and so, the last two, the exchanges with reporters and interviews, have increased. in trump's case, he has had many more. when you look at the six presidents, trump has 442. these figures are by the end of june. 442 short question-and-answer sessions, which sometimes can involve one question, but most times are many minutes, and it can go up to 20 minutes or so. they are sessions where the president, especially in the marine one ones, it is a somewhat chaotic situation. and -- [laughter] martha: with people with ladders, cameras, edging their way in. it's a setting where in

bush white house. she has degrees from new college in sarasota, florida, and the university of missouri columbia. to her immediate left is tamara 009,h who joined npr in 2 and has been a white house correspondent since 2014. npr politicsthe podcast, the political -- the podcast inal america. it is something i listen to every single week. miss keith has covered the trump administration from day one. as well as covering the 2016 presidential campaign when she was assigned to cover hillary clinton. in 2018, she was elected to serve on the board of the white house correspondence association. she has been, she has worked for a number of npr affiliate stations including wosu in columbus ohio, and kpcc, southern california public radio. she has degrees from the university of california berkeley and the ucb graduate school of journalism. last but not least, she is a aember of the bad news babes, media softball team that competes against members of congress and the congressional women softball game. >> and they

as the average white southerner and the 1920 census identifies him as a white man. as his descendents tell the story of the years in the 40s and 50's after the attack his descendents would have families and the children would come out different colors but sometimes the light-skinned children would move to the suburbs and mary whites and lead a white life to sony the african-american siblings and their families in the city. maybe it's the most painful way that this can work that i want to close with this man who i think is well-known in this community, reverend richard harvey kaine, the re-founder of the mother emanuel church after the civil war. i don't know if everyone in the community is aware of his ancestry. he's the sun of a father born in africa and the cherokee mother who presumably is half african and half native american. he is elected from the district to the united states congress. he offers this benediction on the floor of congress in 1874. i believe god designed us to live here together on this continent to develop this great idea that all men are the c

they're white supremacists. they seek to hurt and terrorize and kill their perceived racial and demographic enemies. so they see the attacks themselves as a positive. further, they hope these attacks with be cathartic. they're always trying to set off wider and wider and more and more terrifying racial murder and violence and terror. the more the better. ultimately, finally they hope they can engender enough violence and terror and murder against, you know, you name it, people of color and immigrants and jews and people they perceive as leftists or anybody else they define as their enemy or their target, they ultimately hope to cause as much violence and terror and murder against those populations that they inspire inevitable violent backlash. because they want it to be a war. they think once the country gets into a full-on whites against everyone race war, they're quite sure they'll win and they'll get their, you know, white homeland or whatever it is they want. so in the late 1980s there is this guy named tom

to be a white nationalist? that what isk important to understand, so president trump did use language saying he is proud to be a nationalist. he was contrasting that with language of what is called the globalist. that raised a lot of feathers both among far right scholars and globally because sometimes the term globalist is used in far right conspiracy theories to refer to jews. there was a concern that that was an anti-semitic comment. i don't think it was meant that way. , ahink a lot of the rhetoric lot of the rhetoric that you hear from not just president trump. i want to be clear, there were a lot of mainstream politicians doing it. the rhetoric that is used to reinforce a sense of replacement , language around invasion, talking about immigration and dehumanizing language about other people from mexico and telling congresswomen to go back, that language has not helped and it legitimizes a lot of white supremacist ideology and we have to think about how mainstream political rhetoric announcer: c-span's wash

nationalists, white supremacist, white terrorism in the united states. that news footage i was showing there, it's old looking, right? we're a couple of decades at least down the road from that stuff, and now it sort of feels line the matches are dry again and the dry brush has grown back, right? when the aryan nations and white aryan resistance and the united klans of america lost their shirts, you know, lost their ropes and their headquarters and their houses and their ability to ever have donations and have their wages garnished and all that stuff, i mean, surely those kinds of cases and the way those organizations suffered from losing those cases, that surely undercut their organizational capacity, these klan chapters, these skinhead outfits, right? but the ideology hasn't gone away and their movement has been sustained and it certainly exists among us right now and it perceiving itself to have friends in very high places, including in their view in the white house. the shooter from el paso this weekend is in custody now after having killed 22 people

white supremacy a higher priority. that exclusive report coming next. stay with us. our windshield fix. >> teacher: let's turn in your science papers. >> tech vo: this teacher always puts her students first. >> student: i did mine on volcanoes. >> teacher: you did?! oh, i can't wait to read it. >> tech vo: so when she had auto glass damage... she chose safelite. with safelite, she could see exactly when we'd be there. >> teacher: you must be pascal. >> tech: yes ma'am. >> tech vo: saving her time...

on the number of attacks by white supremacists white nationalists yeah i mean this is something that has been growing for more than just the past 3 years we have seen the the seeds of this planted in my harassment campaigns going back to the earlier part of this decade and before that we've seen a 20 or 30 year erosion of the protections that we have against police so we are seeing more police violence and. crucially the types of language that we see with that with this type of killings like they take i felt afraid for my life and so i had to shoot him we're actually seeing that being manifested in the defenses of these by the doctors when they do get brought to trial and so when you have somebody like the president who is in the most scrutinized office in the world. doing things like say oh if you punch these protesters all pay their legal bills whether it's a joke or not is irrelevant people hear that and they see think that they have carte blanche to go out and commit violence and that they have the formula already and so between the well practiced on line harassment where they ha

and it's also white supremacist. we have a racial justice news site, we hear activists all the time, we have a working destinations but for many people who don't do the kind of work, it kind of sounds shocking but it's the reason why it's white supremacy, rather than racism because it is a systemic system and we talk about it as a particular system that can be languished. a lot of times racism is interpersonal. people will say i listen to him and he's not racist but white supremacy is a particular system. >> one of the things in the book, imagine love and laughter, one of the most important tools of war and another one that said loving yourself is a revolutionary act. a lot of times you don't think of laughter and love. >> it's really important, number one, to be human, do you need joy and laughter and remedies. even the worst possible situation, you need to enjoy something. i don't believe we would survive as a people if you don't have a sense of humor but a particular part in the book that we talk about, let's keep

i'm talking about the uniquely american epidemic of gun violence as well as white nationalism, white supremacy, not to mention other arguably existential threats like climate change. the things people are actually afraid of, not being able to pay for life-saving health treatments, health care, for example, those kinds of things he does not have answers to. he invents, you know, fake crises. fake emergencies. fake things that we should be afraid of. asylum seekers, you know, they're so terrifying that we need to strip babies from their mothers while they're nursing. socialism, yeah, that's a thing that americans are really afraid of. no, they're afraid of being gunned down at their place of worship, at the food festival, at the nightclub, you know, at school. and these are the things that americans are terrified of and that he and his party just have no answers to and don't even attempt answers for. >> michael, you wrote a piece on cnn.com this weekend and referenced this moment, it's from trump's 2016 rnc speech. watch this. >> nobody knows the system better than me. which is why i,

explain some of the terms we hear in this discussion, white supremacy, white nationalists, neo-nazi. what is the difference? guest: everyone is confused about this. no one has a complete agreement on it. your question is well-placed. refer to the far right as a spectrum of ideologies that includes white supremacist extremism but also a range of other kinds of systems oneliefs and the far right spectrum including antigovernment. what we have been talking about is white supremacist extremism. that is an ideology that most people understand to include dehumanizing kinds of -- kinds of racism and homophobia. two parts, ades sense of existential dread. you have been hearing the great replacement theory part of the manifesto in christchurch and reportedly in el paso. they believe that they are accident -- existentially at threat, going to be replaced by immigrants, that there will be a white genocide. the third doctrine is acceleration, that there obligation is to accelerate societal discord through violence to bring about a new world order. that is what we talk about when we talk about we

, virginia. >> white lives matter, white lives matter! >> calling themselves unite the right, they claimed they were protesting the city's decision to remove a confederate monument. more than 1,000 counter protesters met them in the streets. police lost control, and the governor declared a state of emergency. >> it's 2017. how can you hate somebody that you don't even know? >> a lot of people got hit. a lot of people got hit. >> at 1:40 p.m., nazi sympathizer rammed his dodge challenger into a crowd of peaceful counter protesters. >> this is why we didn't want them here! this is why we did not want them here! >> when it was all over, 19 people were injured and a 32-year-old woman named heather hire was dead. >> what were you thinking? you were making this progress, and all of a sudden you're like, oh, i'm going to go to this rally that ended up being this tragic event? >> i still hadn't fully separated myself, i guess, from the ideology. there's still a lot of things that i struggle with as far as like my mindset. i'm still in that nation

, what white supremacy? >> if you were to assemble a list, a hierarchy of concerns of problems this country face, where would white supremacy be on the list? right up there with russia, probably. it's actually not a real problem in america. the combined membership of every white supremacist organization in this country would be able to fit inside a football stadium. >> carlson, like the president that he apologizes for, knows what he's doing. in this case it's a clumsy little bait and switch in which he argues the only problem are the relatively small numbers of people who are members of a white supremacist organization. but as far as we know the killer in el paso was wasn't a member of an organization and the killer at the synagogue at pittsburgh wasn't a member on an organization. scream at this to go back to their country, who berate people in gas stations because they're speaking spanish, those people aren't members of organizations. the problem isn't white supremacists as some distinct category that onl

the term white supremacist, white nationalist is not included in your statement to the committee when you talk about threats to america. there's a reference to racism , which i think lovably was meant to include that, but nothing more specific. we live in a world where the neo-nazis and white supremacists are taking lives in many places. white supremacists murdered 51 muslim worshipers in new zealand. in 2017, a white supremacist murdered muslim worshipers in a quebec, canada. it white supremacist protruded the shootings at the sikh temple shooting in oak creek wisconsin, the emmanuel african methodist episcopal church in charleston, south carolina, the tree of life synagogue in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, and the chabad of in power,gogue california. the reason i raise this is because there is concerned this is not being taken as seriously as it should be as one of the real threats in our country, and there is concern as well that the f ei has not changed its definition when it comes to -- that the f.b.i. has changed its definition when it comes to race-related crimes. they have created

president, you need to deal with white nationalism and white supremacy.young man wrote is clearly in that vein. the young man in el paso, texas. you are very specific with your critics. you attack the squad, call them names. attack elijah cummings, the chairman of oversight. called him a racist this week. when he had defended white colleagues in the congress and where his constituents are large part white. you mocked his burglary. you called me a bigot, a racist, said i don't like whites even though for 25 years you say you know me. why did you call me after you were elected president and ask me to come and meet with you? i've worked with presidents i disagreed with. i disagree would bill clinton on the crime bill but i work would him on civil rights. i work would george bush. this nation will work with you if you stand up and show you're big enough to be president. clinton and bush and obama were big enough for the job. let's see how bigging you are tomorrow. can you pull the country together or can you just sit in the dark and tweet against people that

hate, white terrorism. paper, joe, was to see the various white terrorism groups, white hate groups online reacting positively to the president and the president calling out the four congress members, the women of color, telling them to go back to where they came from. that surged a reaction across the online world of these extremists. and that triggered my conclusion that they view this president as their radicalizer in chief. there are real similarities between a leading muslim cleric who is online preaching hate and violence and allegiance to that person and then trump and what he's doing. i want to be clear here on a couple of things. i'm not saying that he is personally directly responsible for the violence in el paso, but what i am saying is that unstable people amongst us don't get the distinction between a person saying, i don't like these people and a person saying, we need to kill these people. they don't get that. and they feel freedom and license to act out violently because of his actions and h

nationalist, assuming he's found guilty in a court of law, a white nationalist or white supremacistsocent people because of their race or color of their skin. but you don't support capital punishment. would you oppose it in this case as well in. >> if your against it, then you're against it. and of course we could find cases of heinous situations. people perhaps who deserve to die. just never met anybody who deserves to kill. >> fair enough. mayor pete buttigieg, thank you for joining us. horrible day. really appreciate your time. >> thank you. >>> two horrific mass shootings in one awful weekend. dozens killed in texas and ohio. there is much more ahead in the breaking news coverage of two american massacres. stay with us. when you start with a better that's no way to treat a dog... ...you can do no wrong. where did you learn that? the internet... yeah? mmm! with no artificial preservatives or added nitrates or nitrites, it's all for the love of hot dogs. we like drip coffee, layovers- -and waiting on hold. what we don't like is relying on fancy technology for help. snail mail! we w

in the white house.s a president who has built his political fortunes on white nationalism. now that is a strong statement, and i make it advisedly. this is a guy who has done this every single day of his career. so there is no you can make. i have to tell you what i'm really disappointed about is all those republicans who look themselves in the mirror and haven't called out donald trump. that's disgusting. >> welcome back to "hardball" that was democratic presidential candidate jay inslee on his decision to call president trump a white nationalist during last week's democratic debate before the el paso shooting. early this week inslee released a plan that he describes as a cohesive approach to address the interrelated epidemics of white nationalism and gun violence. it includes directing resources towards tracking and confronting white supremacy as well as gun control measures such as an assault weapons ban and red flag laws. i'm joined right now by washington governor and presidential candidate jay ins

it does not mention white supremacy.s officials we've learned have been pushing for the white house to make this more of a concern. to make this a greater priority for the administration. to focus in on domestic terrorism. tonight, a senior administration official from the white house defending the final strategy report, saying that it was the first ever to include domestic terrorism in the report. and the senior administration official put it this way saying it continues to be a priority for this administration and the national security council has launched an inagency process focused on combatting domestic terrorism in support of the president's counter terrorism strategy. wolf, tonight, that really doesn't seem to be enough for those former and current senior administration officials who are speaking out, telling jake tapper that dhs has been pushing the white house to make domestic terrorism more of a priority for more than a year. and really, the white house only mentioning it twice in that strategy report that was

we have white supremacists who are marching hoodless in the streets, but then there are the white supremacistsre operating behind their computer screens. and that's how they are fund-raising and recruiting new members and doxing victims and unleashing troll campaigns like what happened to taylor dumpson here. we are using the law to say that we're going to hold you accountable. you are not above the law. we are going to paralyze your operations and bring them to grinding halt. we're not going to wait on the justice department that, you know, is just simply not doing enough, we're going to use every tool in our arsenal to fight back and let victims of hate crimes across our country know there are civil rights lawyers that are prepared to stand up for them and fight back. >> let me also just ask you as last question, how's your client doing? you opened here by talking about what she went through here. it happened to be heartening to her to be affirmed in her fight here by this judge. obviously, she's in a different place in her life now. this has been a very difficult couple of years. how does s

he was happy to be associated with white ethno states with the idea of white supremacy. he was all about it. >> but he seemed to only get law enforcement's attention after posting this disturbing video on instagram. >> showing himself firing a semi-automatic weapon seemingly acting out his plan to kill. the caption on the post sounding like the way a report might cover his attack. police identified the youngstown jewish family community shooter as local white nationalist. the post also tagged the location of his alleged intended target. the fbi raiding reardon's house, where they say they found a large collection of rounds of ammunition, a gas mask and bullet proof armor. he was taken into custody on local harassment and aggravated menacing charges. reardon has plead not guilty. >> white supremacy is an ideology based on the belief that white people of european descent are intellectually and physically superior to nonwhites. but more importantly the ideology calls for action. >> i've never met you know a white supremacist with positive self-esteem. >> christian picciolin

condemned racism and white supremacy.t rallies in his tweets, he says things that fuel those believes. and people who support them. we have seen this pattern before. >> right. it's the arsonist saying they want to help put out the fire. he's the one who created the fire in the first place. the fact that el paso is the place that he went to and demagogued and lied about this city. i think at a minimum makes him feel some sort of cull paability. if you look at the various ways he has used racial demagogue ri to dehumanize anybody really that isn't white. frankly. there's no question that he is not in a position to be claiming to be condemning white supremacy. the mental health thing the only time republicans bring up the issue is use it to defend a shooting. they don't ever bring it up in any other context and don't want to do anything to help people. they want to repeal health insurance for people who have mental health problems and whatever the role mental health may play in the the shootings, the fundamental driver in a

the white nationalist conspiracy theory was also invoked during the white right -- white nationalist rally in charlottesville, virginia. the author of the manifesto says his views preclude president trump but it borrows a number of trump's popular slogans including send them back and fake news which trump also repeated. trump did not refer to the latinos who were killed, who were targeted. he said -- he tweeted very little and spoke little this morning about el paso and dayton but did tweet today's shooting in el paso, texas was not only tragic but an act of cowardice. orre are no reasons excuses that will ever justify killing innocent people. o'rourkeike beto and senator sanders and others believe that trump is partially responsible for what took place? fernando: let me tell you. what we saw was an attack against a symbol. el paso has been a symbol of resistance against what trump resident -- represents. reacted andy resisted the separation of children, returning refugees to mexico, children dying in border patrol stations and ice stations. our community has shown resilience to thes

is democrats have been improved performance in white collar mostly white heavily white suburban areasbeen happening in texas. even as recently as 2014. wendy davis won a quarter of college educated whoit voters. beto o'rourke moved that to 44%. that shifted urban texas. here's a number that's striking. in 2012, obama won the five largest counties in texas. by a combined 80,000 votes. in 2018 o'rourke won the same counties by 800,000 votes. had is remarkable. he still lost the state because the rural parts. mostly white and heavily evangelical. energy industry. moved so sharply towards the republicans ore the last many years and the trump era. >> do you see el paso the shooting factoring into the election? >> absolutely. the basic dynamic of american politics over the last 20 years has been accelerated and deepened by trump. what you see this is kind of realignment of the politics around the fault line of do you accept or fear the demographic economic changes. remaking american society. all of the issues raised by el paso, both the way trump talks about race and guns, reenforce that di

white. having enlisted to help them come help the war effort, the expected the army to deliver the jobs they promised, and respect that it prompted their enlistment. when it did not come ordinary soldiers like young, murphy, morrison and green and other wacs across the nation asserted their rights, compelling to officers to respond and acknowledge their existence. as military personnel. so yes, of course, black women were in the military during world war ii, even though we don't hear about them that much. so that's beginning to change. they were in world war ii, contribute to the war effort, the civil rights movement and the case for the value of women in the military. and they were there to prompt their visibility people across the nation. thank you.

and white nationalism. >> i think the idea that white supreme sill is a hoax is factually ridiculousill info informed much of what our country in is in this moment, white people having power in the country, more share of wealth and white people being privileged in almost every possible way. white supremacy is the world we're all existing in. that needs first to be acknowledged and then you have a group of white nationalists as they call themselves who are constantly activating to try to further the culture of white supremacy that has been such a part of this country. that is a smaller group of people taunging to each otheren the internet and on podcasts. but they're acting out of at instinct that is a much more widely held thing in this country, powerful enough to get people elected. >> with isis, there's as al baghdadi that was sort of the head recruiter, if you will. aqap. a recruiter for al qaeda out there. is there a centralization to this or is this a little more disparate? >> i think one of the things that makes it so difficult to fight and confront is that it's really insidiou

yet the labor protections primarily benefited the white man the white managers, overwhelmingly higher. in 1941, civil rights leaders use their working cloud to roosevelt to crate the fair employment practices committee. the vtc for defense contractors from discriminating against black workers. but it was silent on gender discrimination. to comply, therefore they mainly hired black man. civilian shortages brought white women back. they also apply for these jobs but were not taken on. mary really i should say in fact 9042 in detroit industrial factories there were 100 and the black women. despite the invisibility of black women and safe policies in the historically appalling treatment of black man in the military, african-american women had reasons to expect better opportunities and greater respect from wac as they had civilians. i will mention three, first as previously noted the war department had agreed to a policy of equal treatment regardless of race. second, the shortage of wac essential noncombat military occupation was so heavily publicized that the women knew that their service

of white kids you are not powerless to keep your kids from being radicalized into white nationalism all right old for right belief systems the government isn't going to so we must so tell me what what do parents in the united states what do they need to do you know. in addition to my past i also am the mom of 7 children my oldest is 22 my youngest is 3 and so this has been my life for the last 22 years how do i hope human beings. never look to the same things that i did how do i help them thrive so that hate and violence is never part of their life. white people in america have got to look at our children and think my child is potentially a white supremacist terrorist and we have to just deal with that fact because we live in a white supremacist system that has been in place for hundreds of years and we still have not dismantled the realities and the systems that are in place with that but as parents we can talk about white supremacy we can talk about violence we can talk about systems of power and most importantly we can offer the antidote to the things that allow people to find resona

the white nationalist and boot and his self-loathing whites. this kind of bizarre moral equivalent -- >> all those people are reading the washington post, your column and going to white nationalism. >> it doesn't make any sense. it's incredibly shocking and offensive for me to see this kind of lapping waj appear in what is a mainstream publication and it sadly is i think a reflection of even how mainstream conservative publications are being trump i identified and going down the same road you see. >> in order to survive, i think for many it's an economic decision with some of these people. >> they don't want to go the way of the weekly standard which collapsed. to my mind it's tragic because i revered national review. i thought it stood for something better. sadzeck sadly it's a sign of how far donald trump is leading them over the edge, not only the conservative movement, but the gate keepers who have something to answer for keeping the gates open to the racism and xenophobia that donald trump represents. >> thank you for being with us. a kill

nationalist his response was i don't know whether he's a white nationalist but the white nationalist believe that he is one of them and i think that is very telling when you have it when you have those individuals who identify themselves either as white nationalist or his wife's premises seen a fellow spirit if you will invite president donald trump and we've talked a lot about you know domestic terrorism white supremacists because the l a possible suspect has is possibly going to be charged with that but what about america's gun laws themselves you know texas not only 10 down measures that would impose more controls on gun on as it loosened existing laws do you see anything changing around gun legislation as a result of these just these latest shootings. well there we i think that everyone in the united states is to the point where they say something has to be done the question is do we have the political will to do it and to this question i don't think we have now there are some interesting things happening we know there has been a lot of upheaval within the national rifle associat

, right, i mean, you call him a white supremacist.eight candidates have called him a white supremacist. joe biden, kamala harris, there are some who are equivocating fromit calling him a supremacist, saying he's supporting white supremacists but that he is not necessarily a white supremacist. >> yeah.>> hy do you think they're doing that? i mean, is there...and i guess what i'm getting at here is,he is a risk that calling the president of the united states a white supremacist s the new "deplorables," right? rememberte in ser of 2016... >> sure. >> ...hillary clinton referred to the supporters d ald trump as deplorables, and this became a rallying cry. >>t was just a wide... this was... let's be clear here. come on, margaret.co we're dealing with a very specific group of individuals who hate blacks, hate jews, hate any person of color. they do. they say this every single day. trump talks in their language. he incites them to take action.g now, i de with vice president biden. if you... and he is the president, with the biggest bully pul

he said if he isn't a white nationalist. if you want to best him at the ballot box labeling him is further demonization of our leaders. the president's 2020 strategy is race baiting and up until this week hisviders thought it was a good strategy. >> if you look at u.s. presidential history, i mean the civil rights movement in the 1960s they called it the children's crusade when dr. martin luther king had kids and were arrested protesting in birmingham and we had visual imagery and it shamed the country. what's shaping america now and making some of donald trump's supporters queasy i think are the children. the little girl screaming for her mother in mississippi, a dead, you know, mexican girl on the border, you know, along the rio grande river, looking at the separation in the cages there. and though no sane american wants a president that's okay with those things. so i think attacking trump as putting the ark of justice in the wrong direction, john mccain didn't act with a bigoted fashion the way that trump did -- does. nor

she's spurr he's spurred on this white nationalism and white racism. it's domestic considerism.ve to call it what it is. the fact that mitch mcconnell won't stand up to president trump, and others won't stand up to mitch mcconnell. they need to do the right thing in the face of more and nor gun death. >> the president spoke about rebuking white nationalism today, as you know. he did not address or really in any way withdraw obviously his past statements, some of which we've mentioned in the broadcast tonight. he also raised the spectre of video games as a driver of this. that's become more common among conservatives. take a listen. >> i look at this evil act and let's condemn it for what it is, evil. evil. and i say how long are we going to let, for example, and ignore at the federal level particularly, where they can do something about the video game industry? >> we've watched when studies have shown before what it does to individuals. when you look at these photos of how it took place, you can see the actions within video games. >> we must stop the gloria if i indication of vi

girls in these cases approached white schools, talk to hostile white principles.ad endless meetings with lawyers and if you ever had a meeting with a lawyer you know how long and boring they could be three young women. my apologies to any lawyers in the room. and they talked about their cases with conviction and conciseness self-possessed ways to both black and white press. the first thing in the book the white press wanted to know from all the school desegregation plaintiff's was one thing, do you want to go to school with white students? do you think you will be conference with white students? these were difficult even explosive questions to ask a young person and the girls did well with these questions in general. the central question at the heart of this book is why did girls act as school desegregation plaintiff and later as desegregation first. there are two primary reasons for this. the first is that girls disproportionately believed in the idea or the ideal of school desegregation. they believed that segregated schools were a moral crisis and they believed

white nationalism and white supremacy is a serious problem. it is a terror threat. >> when you look at the reaction of the president yesterday, joe biden was asked about it, asked what he thought of the tweet and he said the president needs to get a life. paul, is that the best -- go ahead. >> it's crushingly painful. after katrina, the shootings we've had across the country, the police officers that were killed, the president is sp supposed to show up and bring focus to the thing and not to themselves. it's painful this morning that we're talking about the president rather than the victims, how to reduce violence on the streets of america. it's tragic and it's not right. >> these are conversations that should be had. joe biden not the only one calling out the president yesterday and making a forceful speech. cory booker of course was out there. we also have heard from beto o'rourke who of course is from el paso over the last number of days. when you're looking at all these different reactions and specifically cory booker yesterday, paul, do y

because it naturalizes race and whiteness and it allows us to forget that categories like whiteness were created in order to legalize and justify inequality. in other words, we need to acknowledge that individuals, it's not just -- they didn't just come out of the either. individuals made decisions that led to both protestant supremacy and white supremacy. and these concepts had a purpose when they were created. second, i think it's important to think about the many different meanings that religion had during this early colonial period. so we see in protestant supremacy that religion could be a source of oppression. but that's certainly not what it meant to the enslaved men and women who fought hard to be baptized. so i think that when we tell the story, we need to keep these two things in balance. and especially not let the sort of oppressive regime of protestant supremacy to sort of over power the actual experiences of enslaved and free black christians. and then to bring it back to the quakers, for those of us who identify with the quaker tradition, and i'm one of them, this history i
