well, it's a series that yale university press has just begun in the past few years. the three series editors are henry louis gates jr and jacqueline goldsby. jackie is here at yale and the english department. skip is course up at harvard. it's a series modeled on another that yale press does called jewish lives, which has now been around 20 or 30 years. it's been very successful series. they are short biographies, usually 200 pages or less. the jewish lives series is as been a triumph. so they decided to do a series called black lives, which is the new series. and we have the first two books coming out in the series just in the next month or so. and many other books in the pipeline, about 18 of them already, i believe, are signed up or the are under air for review. and this, too, will be biographies broadly defined. now about black lives. africans, americans, africans, anyone of african descent, including even the literary characters about whom or about which authors will write biography fields. and we'll talk about some of those books in just a minute. but why the fo

joining me now is john freeman a professor of history i american studies at yale university the presidentciety for historians of the earl american republican, the autho of the field of blood, violenc in congress on the road to the civil war. awful with me as jennife reuben, an opinion writer at the washington post and political msnbc politica analysts, also the author of resistance how women sav democracy from donald trump. her latest piece in th washington post gets right t the heart of the matter. trump is indicted and justic is served. welcome to both of, you than you for being with us. i want to ask you jennifer because i think there is something that we cannot say enough because of all of the republican responses, almost all that i saw from congress members of congress about alvi bragg. there have been some dehumanizing things that donal trump has said about alvin bragg in the last words, las weeks including calling him an animal and there is his endless reference to sorrows backed. everybody says it and i think that some peopl in good faith don't know wha they are saying but thos pe

in american studies from yale university. she is a historian her previous was the most famous man in america a biography of henry ward beecher and he was a minister sort of a progress administer. but in her acknowledgments she talked about how interesting it was to move from a minister to a madam who is ran a number of houses of prostitution in new york. so her latest book is the biography of polly adler, icon of the jazz age. it won the 2007 pulitzer prize for biography, and it was one of the new york society of libraries best books about new york and was also a finalist for the us angeles times book prize and. the national book critics circle award and she's been married to bruce torgan. 36 years. so i read the book. it's a fascinating, fascinating book. one of the things i didn't realize is that is as much about the history. new york during the 2030s and forties as it is about about polly and her her. i'm not going to say too much because i know i want you to hear more from her, but you're from new york or you lived in new

i spoke to stephen roach, a senior fellow at yale university, and asked him if ms yellen�*s speech was for the biden administration to dial back some tensions. what i saw from secretary yellen, who i am a huge fan of, was a clear emphasis on security over economics and by ranking security at the top of the agenda, that pretty much turns the hopes for engagement on their head. economics has long been the anchor of the us—china relationship. if we get the economics and trade right, then we can be more comfortable in dealing with the thorny and prickly issues of security. but i'm worried that she is putting the cart before the horse here. and i would say with all, you know, effort to be balanced here, xijinping has done the same thing and is addressed to the party congress. last october, he, too, put the emphasis primarily on security. so you've got both sides focused on security, and that is not a constructive formula for re—engagement and de—escalation of conflict. does the us, though, have a point when it comes to national security concerns over apps like tiktok? also intellectual prop
