1930s. Garcia. I work at the Lower East Side Tenement Museum in new york city. We are going to look at our historical tenement building, which was built in 1863. About 7000 immigrants lived here between 1863 and 1935. What you see around you is a mix of original architectural detail and some things that came later in the buildings history. Throughout the years, our building changed over time. In the year it was built, there were virtually no housing laws on the book yet, here in new york city. The gentleman who built this, a german immigrant called lucas lautner, was basically working on his own, putting together a building he would see fit to live in, and did live here in the early years with his family. But as compared to what we are used to today, it was a pretty difficult place to live. There was no source of interior light. There was no running water, no plumbing, no toilets, sinks, showers, or tubs. And there was not a designated number of windows. We are going to take a closer l

That sense that we thought it was important to present an exhibition on the war of 1812. My name is rachel. I was assistant curator for 1812 a nation emerges. The exhibit is large. There are nine sections in all, 107 pieces. We set out to do this exhibit on a grand scale, getting all the best we could from all over the world. The first section of the exhibit which deals with america in 1800 is dominated by the portrait of thomas jefferson. Gilbert stuart had a rare ability, recognized by contemporaries, of capturing the inner essence of people. If you look at this portrait of jefferson, it is very unlike some other portraits. Image is that of a shy man, and jefferson publicly was a very shy man. Want ton did not involve the United States in a war. His first term had been extremely successful. He had operated very well with congress, was able to get really all of his bills through. He had successfully negotiated the purchase of the louisiana territory, which doubled the area of the Unit

I want to start with this quote. Franklin roosevelt, president roosevelt died on april 12, 1945. This was just a few weeks before world war ii in europe was over, just a couple of months before world war ii in the Pacific Theater was over. Roosevelt made it almost to the end of the war. Six days later, april 18, the reporter, ernie pyle, was killed on an island in the western pacific. Killed by japanese machinegun fire. Obviously these were not equally traumatic events to the country. But it is kind of remarkable that just six days after roosevelts death, who had been president for 12 years, the new president harry truman issued a statement at the white house, a statement of bereavement recognizing the death of ernie pyle, a newspaper reporter. President truman said the nation is quickly saddened at the death of ernie pyle. No man in this war has so well told the story of the American Fighting man as the American Fighting man wanted it told. More than anyone he became the spokesman of

Leaders week and encourage them to dominate the protesters. Tensions between protesters and police reaching new heights as we all watch together over the weekend. I want to begin this hour with Rudy Giuliani, sir, welcome back to the program. We have a few things to go through with you. I guess you have been very critical of some of these political leaders so far. And now there is talk about more reinforcements going to various American Cities, there is talk about maybe new york needing a curfew tonight. Do you think that is necessary now . Why would i not be critical, bill . Six days of lawlessness with little interruption by the police. Essentially the police might as well be cameramen for you, they sit there, they get pounded, they get pelted, 40 secret Service Agents get seriously injured, 50 or City Police Officers have been seriously injured, i mean, that is i never would have accepted that when i was mayor of the city. But the protest never wouldve gone beyond one day. These inc
