of the white house. the place where the public can get the closest to the home of the american public. this is even more true throughout the 19th century, when the public was allowed ready access to the north grounds. people weren't shy about coming for a visit, as we can see from this fantastic photo of these rather dapper gentleman lounging on the north grounds, fittingly in the shadow of the jefferson statue, that was a centerpiece of the north grounds. all of this was good so long as they respected the right to privacy, and stayed out of what was supposed to be the private south grounds. what do you think happened? before very long, folks started making themselves quite at home in the president's backyard. this trend really started with a bang during andrew jackson's first inaugural reception in 1829. more than 20,000 boisterous supporters descended on the white house, and ran through before spilling outdoors and continuing the party outside on the south grounds. to be fair, washington was still a yo

of the white house. it became a private space for the first family to enjoy. this is very early photographs of the white house conservatory. because this large glass building here. the conservatory was steamy and exotic and overflowing with all types of hothouse plants. one 19th-century news reporter somehow did manage to get inside and describe the scene as like penetrating the luxurious fragrance of some south american island. so warm and open for us is the atmosphere." first lady lucy seen here with her children, and one of their friends in the conservatory had a tremendous amount of plans and was an avid gardener. they utilize the conservatory in a special way. after a dinner with guests, instead of serving drinks, they led tourist in the conservatory. it seems to have gone over surprisingly well with guests going away pleased with the experience. the year 1900, the single conservatory, which is can growuilding here, into one vast glass complex that ranged over much of the southwest grounds. the cons

two thirds are white men.f you look at the difference of wealth and income, the ability to walk into a room to get a job and a callback. if you have an african-american sounding name but no criminal record, you are less likely to get a call back for a job and if you are a white person who has a criminal record. does that mean that i cannot get a job, or that any white person will always be able to get a job? no, but it does mean these group dynamics still exist, and we have to acknowledge them. brian: are your parents alive? heather: yes, thank goodness. brian: what do they think of your success? heather: they are proud of me. my mother really has dedicated her life and career to racial healing. she is particularly proud of me. brian: still live in chicago? heather: she lives in prince george's county outside maryland. my grandfather is not still alive, and he was a chicago police officer. was very close to harold washington -- yes, first black mayor of chicago. i wish he were still alive. he would have a lot

that work with the white house. when i explained that to people. almost think of it as a foundation with an educational mission. the federal government will only appropriate money for the maintenance and upkeep of the building. if you want the state floor to have presidential trips and state services, historic artifacts that are returned to the white house all of that has to be raised privately. there is no taxpayer money used for those things. >> to have a say as to what pieces are in the white house? >> there is a group called community for the preservation of the white house it consists of a lot of the major heads of agencies like the smithsonian, chief usher of the white house, white house curator, head of the national park service and the number of presidential appointees that serve on the committee. the association works with the community for the preservation of the white house to acquire things but also for various renovation projects. for example, when first lady laura bush decided to renovate the lincoln b

since she joined the white house in january since she joined the white house in january 2017, she has repeatedly and flagrantly abused her position of trust. in march 2017, the office of government ethics recommended that the white house discipline ms. conway for using her official position to oppose the private business during fox and friends. holding her accountable, the white house minimizes the seriousness of her violation by claiming that this was made in a "light, offhanded mander.". the committee discovered that she wasted thousands of taxpayer dollars by traveling around the country on private jets with former secretary of health and human services tom price. secretary price paid the taxpayers back then resigned. ms. conway refused to reimburse taxpayers and faced no disciplinary action at all for president trump . recently, on june 13, recently, on june 13, 2019, the independent office of special counsel which is led by henry carter, who was appointed by president trump, issued a report recommending that the president fire ms. conway for "persistent, notorious, and deliberate

whites white supremacists -- heather: those are two very different questions.rian: here is another way of asking it -- what do black people say about white people when we are not around? heather: that is a good question. so -- i am trying to think of an actual example. brian: there has to be things you say. heather: sure. i mean listen, our country -- we have this very strange, kind of double consciousness in this country, where we admit -- and on martin luther king day our country was legally racially segregated up until recently, but the footage is black and white. and yet we really do not want to actually admit that, that has some effect on all of our systems. it really is about the beliefs. there is this idea that white people who were racist before the civil rights movement, maybe they were just bad people. we know that is not actually true. we know the vast majority of white americans tolerated a system of apartheid in our country and does that mean that they were evil and would literally kill a black person before they would sit next to them? obviously n

the white house itself stands as as a centerpiece to a grand 18.7 acre site, which we know as the white house grounds. having been established in 1790, the white house grounds constitute the oldest continually maintained landscape in the nation. the grounds are older than the mansion itself. and george washington is rather famously the only president to have never lived in the white house. but every single u.s. president, including washington, has walked upon the grounds. so this right here is what the grounds look like today. of verdant, greensward -- a verdant greensward of sloping lawns and growth of grand trees. this is not what the grounds look like in 1790. anita mcbride alluded to that. for one, the grounds originally stopped here. basically where this roadway is. and it stopped there for about the first eight decades of the grounds' existence. the far south grounds were not added until 1872 under president grant. and the southerly addition was to compensate for the loss of land in the east and west that was each enough by the expansion of executive offices. that is the treasury

administrations including multiple white house counsels. the deputy counsel to the president and associate counsel to the president, the deputy assistant to the president, the director of the white house office of security. this is a clear cut case. when not requiring to testify about advice, she gave the president or about the white houses policy decisions, let me repeat that members. we are not requiring her to testify about advice she gave the president or about the white house's policy decisions. we are requiring her to testify before congress about her multiple violations of federal law. her waste of taxpayer funds, her actions that compromised public confidence, and integrity of the federal government. this illegal activity and the ongoing efforts to cover this up mustn't be allowed to stand. this is bigger than just the hatch act or any other law. this is about holding our government to the highest standard and not allowing individuals appointed by the president to be given special treatment when they flagrantly violate the law. i mu

when osc did flag this unprecedented recommendation for the white house, osc only gave the white house 16 hours, that's right, just overnight to respond. the items osc flagged as problematic are ridiculous. ms. conway said that vice president biden, senator bernie sanders are two old white career politicians. she said senator warren was lying about her ethnicity and appropriating somebody else's heritage. she suggested that congressman o'rourke does not think that women running are good enough to be president. and she said that senator bernie sanders has ideas that are, quote, terrible for america. frankly, i think a lot of americans would agree with ms. conw conway's statements, but whether you agree or disagree with those statements it does not change the fact that they are ms. conway's honest opinions and she has every right to share her opinions. democrats on this committee are more than happy to use osc -- the osc report to attack ms. conway and of course the president. this is just yet another example of the committee, as i said, being used for politics. we had special counsel he

and the story about teddy roosevelt's when he came to the white house, the white house had all the offices in it at that time. the president lived there, it was a small family. he had six children and everyone had to have his or her own bedroom. so, they had to build the executive office building so that they could all have their own bedrooms. and that was when charles mckinnon came in to build the west wing with the oval office. and of course you know in the colonnade connecting the white house, the president still has to go outside every day to go to his office. there is no way through the house to do it. and at that time he also built the east wing, which as you can see here in this wonderful postcard from 1930, the east wing is a right angle because it became an official portico entrance to the white house. the east garden that we are going to be talking about is embraced, as it were, by the east wing. and if you go in october you can see that. thomas jefferson actually wanted the idea of having wings. and evidently when they were building these, they did find foundations that had been

yet its labor protections primarily benefited the white men that white managers overwhelmingly hired. in 1941, civil right it is leaders use their merging clout to pressure roosevelt to create the fair employment practices committee. the fepc, or defense contractors from discriminate against black workers but silent on gender discrimination to comply factories hired black men. wartime civil yarr shortage black white women to factory floors. black women also applied for these jobs, but were not taken on. very rare rei i should say, in fact, in 1942, in detroit and industrial factory abouts, fewer than 100 worked in the factories. 100 black women. black female women again, fell through the cracks. gite invisibility and appalling treatment of black men in the military, african-american women had reasons to expect better opportunities and greater respect in the wac than they had as civilians. i'll mention three first as previously noted war department agree to a policy of equal treatment regardless of race. second, the shortage of wac fulfill essential noncombat military occupations was s

explain that. >> yeah, i mean, if it talks white a white nationalist, if it behaves like a white nationalistif it tweets like a white nationalist, it's tucker carlson. don't take my word for it. the leading white nationalists in america, don, have said for the past two years that tucker carlson is their guy. that's andrew anglin of the daily stormer one of the leading neo nazi websites. he said literally the tucker carlson so is literally daily stormer television. so you have to ask yourself, why are the advertisers supporting a man who mainstreams and promotes white supremacists, not even white nationalists, don, white supremacist conspiracy theories. remember last year he said that south african white land owners are being oppressed. that was a completely debunked conspiracy theory. even after it was debunked, guess who promoted it. tucker carlson. he calls immigrants invaders, repeating a talking point, another white supremacist conspiracy theory that was mainstreamed by donald trump. so this is the feature, it's not the bug. and i'm not being radical here calling him out as a white natio

but this is the trump white house.al media summit is instead shaping up to be a "star wars" bar of the outright. a thinly vailed con cav on the design. platforms like facebook and twitter are not invited. instead there's a pro-trump meme creator and some banned on social media to spread toxic nonsense. it's appropriate the president is convening this meeting not to talk about rereform but to give oval office oxygen that social media is discriminating against them. >> if you look at twitter, they don't treat me right. a lot of people try to follow me. it's hard. i have so many people coming up to me. they say it's so hard. they make it hard to follow. what they're doing is wrong and possibly illegal. and a lot of things are being looked at right now. >> okay. so put that casual threat from the president aside. his twitter followers exploded from about 13 million before the election to nearly 62 million today. some suppression. what the president might be talking about is twitter's push to suspend suspicious and fake acc

people knew about it, white and black. and the public, men, women, black, white, everybody was writing in to the war department. the war department had to take action. what action they take is a bit convoluted but eventually the women did return to fort devons and they remained as orderlies. so you could read the book and say, nothing really changed. but things did change. they did have the attention of their higher brass. before they could not get the attention of even their local officers or lieutenants. now the war department, secretary of war henry simpson knew who these women were. , president roosevelt knew who these women wear, so did his wife eleanor. the naacp, the godmother of the wac, they had their attention and it did make a difference. even though these women returned back to their duties, now their grievances were heard. it didn't change a lot for them automatically, but it really made a difference for other black women also being transferred to other posts. one case in particular, gardner hospital where dur

and you hate whites and cops, why did he call me to the white house several times since he's been president and come to my action network convention, which i released the photos, he's been there two, three times. he doesn't read that. he's playing on what he hopes is the racial ignorance of a lot of americans that he calls his base. i think he's racist because he's comfortable in doing that, because you got to be racist to be comfortable. we were going to baltimore today. michael steele, who was the former chairman of his party, the republican party, and i to show a bipartisan meeting to deal with the fact that black homeowners are dealing with a decrease in being able to keep their home. this is s was scheduled a month ago. we just happened to be going after he picked a fight with the congressman there. he sees i'm going to baltimore and assumes i'm leading a protest from baltimore to the white house, which i might do. and he goes into this whole tirade against me because he knows his base is not going to say wait a minute, you asked reverend al to come to the white house and he wouldn't c

great wealth of information about the southern white meaning of racial inequality. many of these young women are invoking this kind of confederate stereotype of the mammy and talking about the good old faithful servants we used to have. they were one of the family. we don'tgeneration, know what to do with them, they refuse to accommodate our needs, they demand to be paid in wages. they won't work from sun up until sundown. there is this pre-creation of white southern attitudes, expectations about african-americans in terms of service that are very much and problematically shaped or forms by racial stereotypes of african-american women in particular, kind of being self-sacrificing. i also read them for tidbits of evidence about how black workers were often resisting employer demands and finding ways to trinity to -- to strategically negotiate or navigate white instruction or surveillance. connect those two stories of today. prof. stewart: i think you can see their are so many relevant connections. while that is interesting to me as a scholar and exciting to me as a s

the white home ownership is 71%.se are dire statistics that i wanted to bring to the attention of this body. i know the chairwoman, maxine waters and her committee and subcommittee on housing are working to tackle this problem as well. but it's time we address the 30% gap in home ownership between white and black americans which is at it highest point. why is this so important? so much of our wealth is accumulated in the equity of home ownership and workers getting a raise and needs that raise in order to afford the higher cost of health care and food and gas. everything is going up but their paychecks and that's what i hear from my constituents, from those who are earning a minimum wage under the raise the wage act, it would increase by almost 20%. i'm looking forward to debating my colleagues on this important issue when we come to the floor later this week. as we have talked about here tonight, the congressional black caucus is laser focused on making sure that americans get a raise. we know that giving americans
