Times. I found i admired raymond a great deal. Greely called him the little villain, a nickname that stuck. Cartoonists portrayed him as a very little fellow with a big beard. But he stuck to and it made the New York Times he committed the New York Times to the same idea of all the news that is fit to print that it still practices today, albeit under a different ownership. How does he fit into this scenario. Bennett was the first on the scene and was the oldest and born in scotland, before the t...

Going to go down as a result of the refugee overflow. So a story being written. Priscilla gaines. I work a lot with professionals to deal with abuse. He said part of building resiliency is learning how to fail successfully. I love that. Could you talk a little bit about the youth and building resiliency through the parents and educators . Absolutely. I think we really do need to redefine what skills our Education System is trying to train for. Walter spoke eloquently in the last session about sc...

Are spending much time at all training for the crater. I think it gets back to how we tend to want to remember this story. The story of the black Union Soldier is front and center. I couldnt be happier about that. I think theres been a danger in the way the story has been pushed over the last few years. It is the moral narrative of our civil war memory. We want to correct for forgetting about them for so long. I think we tend to gloss over some of the darker sides of black soldiers. I dont think...

Kagans article and in the new republic of hes a wellknown intellectual. Maybe thats why he got it in the new republic. Other people can write a counter view. If were unhappy with the exceptional view of triumphalism, thats what we historians should try to do without getting caught in our own ideological biases, i would suggest. Im going to make half the panel feel old. I was in high school, i was a freshman when the wall fell. Sorry. At least you werent there when the wall went up. I dont know w...

You again and welcome you here to the park. I was remarking a few minutes ago, much like it was for the soldiers 150 years ago who were in the oberlin campaign that started in 1864, it has been a long road to petersburg. We started this 150th event for 3, atparks on may spotsylvania courthouse. We have moved south ever since. T has been quite a feat it is the first time three parks within a process of these commemorations have shared programming where we have tried to make a continual program of...

Believe that if those black regiments had been allowed to lead the assault, that would have been it. In other words, we can imagine black soldiers marching, charging over blanford hill, right, into petersburg. Thats a very soothing image. I think that tells us more about how we want to remember the war than the battle itself, because anyone who has studied civil war battles, they never go as planned. Right . Theres always something that goes afoul. So is it any surprise that given this massive d...

Syphilis and gonorrhea. And by the end of the war, there was enough for the army, there was enough for civilians and enough to give to some of our allies. There was also interest in using it to see if you could prevent people who had been exposed to gonorrhea from getting gonorrhea. The experiments were proposed here at the federal prison in vienna. They were proposing to give these men gonorrhea and then see if penicillin could be used to treat it. But they knew this was likely to be sensitive....

What i tried to do was to fit that response into the broader context of slave rebellions. Those that actually happened and those whoa were rumors. It didnt matter if it actually took place, if there was a ruer they dont need to hear cries of remember fort pillow. They know whats done on the morning of july 30th. They do it. In fact if you look at the numbers of black soldiers who were mass kacremassacred. It falls into line of the numbers that are usually killed in the aftermath of state rebelli...

Stag field. The university of chicago is an interesting institution. I had the opportunity to spend some time there. The stadium fell into disrepair, and here you see a chart which shows the joseph regin stein library. Imagine this if you can. They tore down their football stadium to build a library. True story. They also left the big ten in 1946. And it left room for another member to join the big ten to make up the full complement of ten. Of course, in 1949, Michigan State university was admit...
