Trish Welcomes Larry Elder, "The Black Face of White Supremacy"

"Larry. Good to have you here. Chris say hello to the blackface of white supremacy. As I was called by the LA times when I ran for governor by a columnist who was like email. It was initials are Erica D Smith, oops. Yeah, you know, look, I know that what you're doing comes from a very good place. And I know that in part just because I know you, but also you've really over the years, pointed out the policy flaws that I think have left so many black Americans disenfranchised. This new movie, and by the way, I say new, this is actually a sequel to the uncle, the original Uncle Tom that you wrote. But this is the second one. And you get into some of these things. I mean, people ought to know, there was a lot of success. Was there not within the African American community long before the war on poverty in the 1960s in my estimation really destroyed so much of it. Absolutely. And by the way, it's a collaborative effort, both these films. The director is Justin Malone. He's absolutely brilliant. It was scored by an amazing composer, a named David criswell, and co written by the star chattel Jackson guy named rival writer Ansel and myself. So it's a collaborative effort. But you're absolutely right about the success of black America. The first one talks about post slavery. When you're talking about an environment with the Klan, lynchings, Jim Crow, still, black people kept moving forward. Why? Basically four reasons. Reliance on family. Even during slavery, a black child was more likely to be born under a roof as biological mother and biological father than to the day.

Is It Racism If It's Black People?

"All right, so again, I was talking about racism and racism is not a huge problem in America, Carl. Why are you talking about this stuff? Because it's so important for us to deal with all of this woke crap that is going on. In the United States and how the left is trying to usher in a lot of their Marxist ideas through using critical race theory by using trans people by using gay people by using diversity, equity, and inclusion. By using SEL, if you teach children like these children at this particular school that they are oppressed and that there are oppressors and that they should be so hyper focused on race, what do you expect them to become? They're gonna start behaving like victims and that's exactly what I hate to see. So when I see headlines like this, they do grab my attention. So again, here's a quote from Mark Harris. The Sacramento attorney and he's the district DEI inclusion monitor only in California. Only in California. Well, I take that back. Maybe in New York as well. All right, but it says here in and I'm quoting from him. I've been on an emotional roller coaster today. This is the third time we've had perpetrators of a racially motivated incident. Identified as African Americans. Question is it racism if it's black people? That's the question I'm throwing out there. It's pretty bad when our kids, for whatever reason, think that it would be popular for them to have a negative depiction of our own. Is it possible they have a negative depiction if indeed they do, is it possible they have a negative depiction of our own as you say mister Harris because they've been taught that we're pressed that we're victims by people on the left.

Sacramento School Suspends Black Students for Anti-Black Racism

"As reported by the Sacramento bee, a school that is in Sacramento, California, suspended two black students after fake money containing racist imagery against black people circulated through the throughout the campus last week. The summary goes on to say Sacramento city unified school district officials told Kayo VR TV, the fake money handed out Tuesday at Kit Carson, international academy was for buying fried chicken, alcohol, contain the N word, as well as a derogatory image of an African American. Now, one of the reasons why this is not racism in my opinion, both sides, the fact that it was black people having a little fun where was the watermelon? There was no watermelon printed on the money. This is how I know we're over racism. Kids don't even know how we were. Actually, kids don't even know old school racism. Whenever you talk about fried chicken, you gotta include watermelon. It makes no sense to me, but nonetheless, this is what the kids did.

San Francisco Reparations Plan Proposes $5M for Black Residents

"On to another part of what we call basic stupidity out of local government. This week, we saw San Francisco, not the bastion of conservatism by any means, but also not the bastion of common sense. The San Francisco board expressed support for reparations in X upwards of $5 million to every. African Americans who were living in San Francisco. So a whole lot of money. Now here's the interesting issue. There's no way they can pay this. Yeah, they can't even afford to get the homeless people out of there to area. I mean, and here there's an interesting take. There's a former Black Lives Matter and this is a story that I saw earlier in the week from the Russo. It was a, he used to be part of Black Lives Matter now. He's with prager and Dennis and all those guys. But he may make the point, it's really interesting he says this, what he's basically saying, and he said. This is just virtual statement. Number one, nothing's gonna change, okay? Because there's no way they can pay this. And it really the concern and I've heard this from others in the community that it perpetuates a victim mentality. It perpetuates that, yes, the reason you're part lot in life is because of something that happened a long time ago and you've never recovered. So we're now gonna make you whole. And everything will be fine. James, you and I both know that just simply giving money to someone does not make them hope.

Laura Ingraham: Fans of Reparations Want to Stereotype You As Jerks

"Lara Ingram last night on Fox News channel weighing in on this. Let's take a listen. But fans of reparations want to suck you into the debate in order to stereotype all of you as unfeeling uncaring jerks. Have been struck by the overheated and irrational response to this draft report. Those are my constituents who lost their minds about this proposal. It's not something we're doing or we would do for other people. It's something we would do for our future for our collective future and the generations to come. Wow. It would benefit our collective futures. How could anyone be against that? Now, reaching into your wallet to apologize for slavery is the least you people could do. Well, and of course, money talks. Just enhance for a law professor at Howard University, put it this way. If you're going to try to say you're sorry, well, you have to speak in the language that people understand. And money is that language. Recall that this debate began on college campuses decades ago. And then the idea really gained traction in recent years, especially after the death of George Floyd. And now, even African Americans who've enjoyed huge success in America, they think they deserve cash.

Caller: Stop Waiting on the Government to Do Something for You

"That last call, if I could be quick. I'm an African American yada yada I'm an American. The last caller, come on now. Where are we picking kites? We're not still stuck in slavery. We had a black president. You get black medium as you got black billionaires. Come on. The opportunity is what you make of it. Mike, the situation is, it's just like me asking you to pay my fight like Bill every month. Why wouldn't you not do that? Because you didn't create the light Bill. Right. I did. Well, but let me say this, Andre. Let me stipulate racism still exists. No one and nobody's saying that it doesn't. But she, I think this last caller who says, well, we didn't get our 40 acres and a mule, and if you don't understand how we're still suffering, maybe he means since racism still exists, that's the impact of slavery, and that's why we got to make multi millionaires out of him. Maybe that's his argument, Andre. Not anything to impact the slavery. That's just the impact of somebody's heart. That's right. Just because racism doesn't have an effect on me. That's right. If a white man don't like me because of my black color, my black skin. Oh well, so big. But that doesn't stop me from being successful. That's right. We have too much opportunity to become who we are. And this is my last point, Mike. Stop waiting on the government to do something for you. Andre. This country doesn't get me an opportunity to make it or break it myself. White folks stand up. No, you know, OS anything. You didn't have nothing to do with it. That's how you end the discussion.

San Francisco Reparations Plan Proposes $5M for Black Residents

"It looks like they're headed towards paying billions of dollars to black residents, making many of them multi millionaires over slavery. Last night, San Francisco's board of supervisors voted unanimously. To accept the plan from San Francisco's African American reparations advisory committee. That would pay out a one time 5 million dollar payment per qualifying person. Now, I've told you for years, there's no way this is going to happen. I can't believe this is even potentially a thing. It looks like it's potentially a thing. The reparations committee will submit its final proposal in June. Then the board of supervisors will meet on September 19th for the next reparations hearing. The advisory committee released the first draft report back in December, proposing the San Francisco make a lump sum payment of $5 million to black residents who were at least 18 and have identified as black or African American on public documents for at least ten years. Residents must also meet at least two of 8 other requirements. Among those requirements is that the resident is personally or the direct descendant of someone incarcerated by the failed war on drugs or is a descendant of someone enslaved through U.S. chattel slavery before 1865.

Lord Conrad Black Unpacks Trump's Latest Strategy

"Question president Trump's wisdom. I rarely do this, but I question it in this case where he's holding up the santas as a Reagan Republican. I don't think that's anything to be embarrassed about. And I guess it's the best he can do, but I wouldn't do it if I were him. I'd make my arguments at the he was a he Trump as a preferable candidate to desantis on another basis. But I think that Republican Party between Reagan and Trump, the bush McCain Romney party. I think they did basically they failed. And the Republican Party will not go back to them. And president Trump repositioned the Republican Party, approaching upon traditional democratic fiefdoms in less advantaged areas in particular. African American and Hispanic American areas and he did it by transporting traditional Theodore Roosevelt Dwight Eisenhower capitalism, Republican capitalism into those districts with the tax incentivized investments creating employment in those districts. And it was a stroke of genius. He used traditional Republican capitalism to attack the democratic stranglehold on African American Hispanic American voters and unless the Republican Party has a collective IQ in a negative area. I mean, less than zero.

Why Do Cartels Kidnap Americans?

"I talked a couple of days ago about this very disturbing incident involving the cartels, Mexico, and the murder in Matamoros or in the modern Morris area of a couple of Americans and wounding of a third. So these are four African Americans who went down to Mexico in an American vehicle with American license plates, apparently one of them was getting some surgery, a tummy tucked something like that. And there was somehow cornered and kidnapped and chased. And then two of them killed by the cartels. And this raises all kinds of questions. It raises the questions about the border. It raises questions about the cartels. It raises questions about the security of Americans going to Mexico, which a lot of Americans do. Sometimes for casual purposes, if they live near the border, they go over to eat, and they come back, or they go on vacation or they go to get dental work done and all kinds of things. We know a guy who goes to get his dental worked out in Mexico because it's a lot cheaper. And Debbie's all over this topic and knows a lot about it. And the thing that you were telling me really struck me is that although we should talk about the latest incident, there's a kind of context. There's a background to it, and you've been tracking this stuff for at least a decade. For a long time. So back in 2010, it was actually September of 2010, a man by the name of David Hartley was skiing was jet skiing with his wife, and they were, they were jet skiing on this Lake that basically separates the United States from a merit from Mexico. And it's called falcon Lake, and they were just having a good time. I think they were taking photographs of this old church that's kind of sunk in a little bit on the side of the Mexican side. And all of a sudden, these two boats come after them, like speeding boats come after them, and when they saw that this was happening, they took off, right? And asked the chase began, they shot him in the head twice.

School Choice, Parents First

"Let me go to the key domestic issue. And I believe this is key to this election governor. By the way, do you prefer ambassador or governor? I know you say either is better, but which do you prefer? No, I prefer Nikki. Those were moments in time. I don't do that. No, no, no. When you've got a father in law as a colonel, you never go to the first thing, but okay, I'll stick with ambassador. The most important issue in American parenting is going to be school choice. Now, Arizona and your colleague and friend Doug ducey led the way with the most revolutionary school choices universal. Utah and Iowa has followed Arkansas signed it. It got started in Florida and West Virginia with programs that were expanding, Ohio is stock. They're not sure yet. What did you do in South Carolina on the school choice front when you were the governor? So we expanded charter schools in our state and we pushed for school choice and at the time it was very difficult, but we did allow for choices. We did help homeschoolers quite a bit. We did also pass a state bill that said NHL that can't read by third grade could not go to the fourth grade because we knew that if you can't read by third grade, you're four times less likely to graduate high school. But I'll give you this, you think about this pre COVID 70% of 8th graders in our country were not proficient in reading. 66% of 8th graders were not proficient in math. Now you put clothes down schools and COVID and think how far back they are. If ever there was a time to have nationwide school choice, it is now. The number of homeschoolers in our country has multiplied times 5. The majority of them are African Americans. They didn't have the luxury of either the money to go to a private school or a waiting list because there were so few private school options. We need to open up the competition. We need to put parents in charge, but more than that, look at what kids are learning. You know, you've heard about critical race theory. Everybody's talked about that. But think about what they're doing with the gender stuff.

Caller: No Other Country Has Done More for Black People Than the U.S.

"Couple of thoughts. Chiefly, there's no other country on the face of this planet, but it's done more for African Americans than the United States of America. And I say that because we have places like the NAACP and the black congressional Congress and affirmative action and black only colleges and black only radio stations and TV stations in black only schools, we have airlines and law schools and doctors schools, doctor schools. Trying to get people based on color based on being African American as opposed to anything else, and the gentleman who was on earlier today was Ben talking about changing the name of the bill so it's not wants to get rid of the R word. So it's not reparations. That's cowardly. It's political and it's exactly why people like me don't trust it. He's trying to hide this. You know, none of the people that are alive today were slaves. And they were so far away. And everything that the United States has done to correct it, it's too much. And I wonder what black professionals will black politicians, black judges, black lawyers, will they get reparations and how they're going to get this just from white people? Well, it's a great question, Jerry. And looking at and again, when you're looking at what the folks like the NAACP say about America, you would think this is the most dangerous nation on the planet to be a person of color. It seems to me if it's that bad, why isn't the NAACP setting up a branch over at the border telling people people of color don't come to America because it's too dangerous because they know it's a lie because this is the greatest country on the face of the earth that a person of color born in America is going to have a wonderful life.

But then when someone comes out with a statistical data point that's not woke or they may be flies in the face of wokeness or there's contradicting their entire theology of existence, they get mad. Chris Berman came out and made a comparison that you have to hear. Wrote a clip. Also, of course, two African American quarterbacks starting against each other in the Super Bowl for the first time fittingly. February 12th is Abe Lincoln's birthday. Here we go with the highlights and. Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Now you know that some people that believe Abe Lincoln was the greatest president and that Abe Lincoln was responsible for freeing black slaves. And it would be fitting, right? I mean, if they want to make a big deal out of two quarterbacks that are American of African descent on Abe Lincoln's birthday, I would argue that he was one of the biggest champions for free in black people. But you know the trolls amongst us can not accept that. Because this needs to be a moment where only black people have only black people. And you add a white person into the equation in that a man. And then he going crazy. And now they hate the world. I just wished that we could get along. And get over this race stuff. Now, I know that color exists race exists exist. But at every front, in our country, we should be trying to evade racial differences as much as we can.

All right, let's go to I'm gonna play both of them. Let's play cut ten Nicole Hannah Jones, the history of black Americans is so inconvenient to the narrative of America that there are you know powerful interests that haven't ever wanted us to grapple truthfully that is why desantis has to ban AP African American studies in Florida play cut ten. The history of black Americans is so inconvenient to the narrative of America that there are powerful interests that haven't ever wanted us to grapple with truthfully. That's why we have governor desantis, banning AP African American studies. If you acknowledge that, then you have to acknowledge that we were founded on these great ideals, but we have not lived up to them. That's actually a little bit of a seat change. I have to say that their pressure campaign on miss Jones, I think is working. Did you hear her there? That's a different she's changed her vocabulary. She said we were founded on these great ideals. She never used to say our foundational ideas were great. So that's new. Let's continue, play cut 11. It's Nicole Hannah Jones trying to water down her message this one is definitely not watered down. Play cut 11. As you look at America, are people adjusting to thinking about being challenged by these ideas and are we moving in a positive direction or do you see something that's frozen? What I would argue is that the arc of the universe doesn't bend one way or another. We bend it. As Americans is which country do we want to be? Do we want to be the country that begins in 1619 with the practice of slavery? Or do we want to be the country that was conceived in 1776 with the ideas of liberty and equality? I think that is that's unknown. I think we always are seeing the tension in the fight between these two halves. So I have several takes on this. And I mean, who are you to decide? We were going to decide when our history begins is just so incredibly self righteous and arrogant. I'm going to decide our history of history is. History is not for your editing.

"african americans" Discussed on Today, Explained

"Or fort Negro in Florida is now St. Augustine. That was built by black hands. We learned that in advanced placement, African American studies. There's always been pushback from white racist and Florida. So that was sort of expected. Some of the teachers that were teaching it down there expected it as well. But politically, now all of a sudden we're starting to talk about this guy instead of talking about advanced placement African American studies, right? And he's consuming a lot of the oxygen. I'm here in D.C. for this celebration of this course. But the oxygen was actually sucked out over the last week. For this guy down in Florida. And it's doing exactly what he wanted it to do. It's caused this controversy. You said you're in D.C. because of the course what's been going on. The college board had a huge celebration at the museum of African American studies and brought the original 60 teachers back in town for the celebration, but we were forced to address that issue. And it's really unfortunate. But what I think is going to actually happen is it's going to make the course much more popular. If we're talking about teenagers, yeah, the fact that the fact that the quote unquote establishment doesn't like it, sure, I hear you on that. How did you get word that this course had been revised? I mean, did the you all are in town to celebrate and then does the college board say, oh, we decided to switch this up on you? There's been a constant revision over a number of months. So this is really nothing that new, right? We have access to all those materials. And everybody is still going to be teaching from those materials and bringing in other materials as well. The 20% of the class is based on this semester ending project that the students are doing. A lot of them I'm sure are going to do their projects on these materials that supposedly were pulled out in reaction to this guy in Florida. Which I don't necessarily think is the case. This is a matter of great debate. The college board says it is not bowing to political pressure. The college board is saying we took into account the thoughts of academics and they told us the course needed to be different. Why do you think this happened? If you look at where we started in August, we got, I think we got two units of four units, right? And things were being added and they were being moved and they were being positioned. And they were being deleted. Since we were together in August, right? Then this semester we got parts of another unit, right? We did not get a complete package, we've been getting this material unit by unit since it's a pilot. And we've been looking at the material and so since it's a pilot, it's constantly being revised. But I think what this guy in Florida did is he just threw a monkey wrench into the works, didn't read the entire document, he said that the material that we're covering essentially, he said it was unimportant, right? He's doing it to put his name out there, which it is done perfectly. But these revisions have been taken place constantly because it's a pilot, right? So we did not get any final document till February 1st. Are you disappointed by any of the revisions? Am I disappointed? Reason why I'm not disappointed is because we have academic freedom and we have access to all the materials. So I don't know why I would be disappointed. I'm disappointed that the air was taken out of the sales of the launching of this great course and some of the oxygen is consumed by this guy. That's what I'm disappointed with. I'm not disappointed with anything because I've got, like I said, I've got all the documents I

"Tell me who you are? Well, my full name is Anthony Martin the poorest green, but my mama used to just call me Tony until I got in trouble and she would use my full name. She was everyone's mom. And what do you do for a living? So I'm a teacher and a coach in Oakland and I have been a teacher and a coach for the last 42 years. I've taught economics and foreign policy. I've taught rise of black nationalism, Caribbean coffee Kane and culture, African American studies, and currently I'm teaching advanced placement African American studies. Mister Green, Tony is one of 60 teachers in the United States who taught the pilot version of the AP African American studies course. I asked him why teaching an AP course on African American studies is important to him. When I first started my formal education, I went to school in a housing project in Vallejo called flaws in elementary school and it was in the Floyd terrace housing project. At that point, history was taught to us by very young teenage black Panthers. It was at the start of their Black Panther breakfast program at about 1960 8, I would say. And growing up, the housing project at my school was in half of it burned down in the 1968 rebellions that happened after Barton for king's assassination. So my parents took me out of that school and they moved me across town to an all white school. And at that point, when they started to refer to history, I no longer heard anything about what black folks had done historically. And so my perspective on the truth and what I was being told, you know, really changed. And I started to learn history from a western perspective and it did not jive with what I had learned previously. And so my total focus in terms of education from that point forward was learning more about African American history and studies. And when this opportunity veiled itself this past summer to teach advanced placement African American studies, I jumped at it in the reason why I think advanced placement African American studies is so important is because it's a national recognition of real history. Tell me, what does pilot mean in this context? For you and for your students. It means that the students do not get advanced placement credit for college. They did not get college credit at this point until it's fully accepted by the college board. I currently have 65 students, so the students were very interested in the course that it's become very popular. I see the students is revolutionaries, especially if you look at the content that they are pushing out there, it's at a very high level. Even though your students weren't getting the college credit, they wanted to take this class. Exactly 100% correct. Let me ask you what the students liked about it. When you would sit with a young person and they would tell you, I really enjoy this. What would they say specifically? I would say the information that's contained that they had no concept of. They had no concept of giving example. Abu Bakr the second, the brother of the richest man in history, mansa Musa. You know, who was able to actually navigate the seas before the supposed father of the age of discovery, Christopher Columbus in 1492. Abu Bakr did it in the 1300s. They had no idea that you had the number of Islamic universities connected to Africa that preceded universities in Europe. The oldest continuous university, the university of karine and Morocco, still open today. So they did not have any idea that Africans had access to this extensive knowledge that would actually put them at the forefront of knowledge, scientific, and otherwise, in the forefront of mankind's knowledge base. Let me ask you something, mister Green, parts of this course really set conservative Americans on edge. It seemed like there were lessons that were more in the present day that had conservatives really concerned. What were those parts? Well, I would say one of the main issues that conservatives have is the idea of the Black Lives Matter movement. Historically there's been a major concern since reconstruction is ended about the intimidation of black people brought on directly or indirectly by the United States government. And it perpetuates itself currently in the actions that the police have in relationship largely to black males or sometimes in black females. There's a number of cases that have caused black activists to respond by creating this movement called the Black Lives Matter movement. Why that is threatening to conservatives, I would link basically to racism. The belief that black people are not fully human, right? Which is something that extends throughout the colonial period, the contemporary historical period. Black people react with extreme anger and I wouldn't say just black people if you look at the Black Lives Matter movement, which was an international movement and so when they respond to anger, it's natural. Racists don't think that it's natural because they don't believe that black people are fully human. They think that there's something wrong with us. But if you look at history and this is the beauty of advanced placement African American history, it tells exactly who we are as humans. So you are teaching this course, your students are really enjoying it, you like it as well. When did you start hearing that there might be pushback about the content? And what were you hearing? During the summer, when we first got together at Howard University, there was a discussion amongst quite a few teachers social discussion that in some states there might be pushback because of the content and because of the history of certain states. You know, in terms of the most recent thing in Florida, a week to two weeks ago, sort of a discussion about what the guy down there would be talking about and how he would be, you know, attempting to use it to sort of leverage his own political ambitions, which I think exactly what he's doing. He's trying to leverage this idea. My family is from Florida. My mom aside is all from Florida. In my grandmother fought off the clan with a shotgun. Right? That's Florida. If you look at black history in the Americas, the first black settlement in the United States. Fort mosta

"About? You will probably be learning a lot. As I said, this course starts in Africa, talks about how the slaves were caught and brought to America, talks about the conditions of slavery, talks about the Civil War, talks about the reconstruction period, talks about the Jim Crow period. All those things, students will still learn. What they learn less about is in the modern era of some of those hot topics. It is a huge advance if those students are learning black history, black culture, black literature, and they may well be learning more than they've learned in the past. But that doesn't in any way take away the concerns about what they're not learning. In education, people always talk about the curriculum. What's in the curriculum. But you also need to focus on what's not in the curriculum. If you only are reading male authors and not reading any female authors, that's bad thing. And many students historically have done that. And this is an attempt to broaden the curriculum to broaden what students will understand and some people think it's very disappointing that some of the modern hot issues are left out. Coming up this AP course was piloted in schools throughout the United States, and we're going to talk to a teacher who taught it about the original course and about the changes and we're going to ask whether he's disappointed. A conversation with novelist Salman Rushdie, only on The New Yorker radio hour, his first interview since a brutal attempt on his life. I've tried very hard not to adopt the role of a victim.

"It's today explained I'm Noelle king with Scott Jessica, who's the editor of inside higher Ed. Scott, let's talk about what caused this new African American studies course to be created. When does this begin? So this began a few years ago because black students, on average, do not take as many AP exams and do not score well enough on the AP to earn college credit. But there's long been a desire to get more black students involved with AP. And while AP and African American history is not only for black students, there was an assumption that it would be of particular importance to them. Pilot school principal Carey Holland hopes this course will increase access to advanced courses. But ultimately, for the students, it's about more than academics. It's about identity. There is no one way to be black. And so this class just really reminds me of that. More black children, young black children like me, can grow up, knowing this information, and it'll change the world. How was it rolled out? Well, the way it's rolled out, you know, AP in any new course has a pilot program. We put out a number of different sources for the first pilot and immediately started talking with students and teachers where the course was living and just ask them which sources are interesting, which sources are engaging, which sources make your creativity come alive. And started tweaking from there. And what the AP program did is they went to 300 professors of African American studies and asked them, what do you think we should include? What should we not include, et cetera this results in a lot of debates and then gradually AP developed the course. And what you'll find when you read it as I hope you will is you'll find an unflinching encounter with the facts and evidence of African American history and culture that gives young people the chance to think for themselves. And of course, covers from Africa to slavery to the Civil War, lots of things are in the course, and haven't been that controversial. Most of the controversy is over the modern period of African American history. And what's in the modern period? Black Lives Matter, affirmative action. The debate over reparations for slavery queer theory. This course on black history, what is one of the lessons about queer theory. Now, who would say that an important part of black history is queer theory. That is somebody pushing an agenda on our kids. And so. And so then what happens is governor Ron DeSantis of Florida gives a speech and announces that AP won't be granted for Florida public schools. The Department of Education highlighted specific issues with proposed sections on black queer studies, reparations and the Black Lives Matter movement, as well as activism, saying it amounts to indoctrination, not education. This is a huge deal for the AP program because Florida is a large state, and it matters to the college board to reach Florida. What was governor desantis arguing? Well, he hasn't been that explicit about it. He said the course had nothing of value. His education department said there was nothing to learn there that it was, quote, woke education. Are there advocating things like abolishing prisons? Now, that's a radical political position. You're free to take that in your own life. I don't think very many people would think that that would actually work. How is that being taught as fat to be a but I think obviously Ron DeSantis is getting ready for a possible run for president and many people think that that is the real motivation here. What we're dealing with is this fear of this historic graphical displacement that's driving the terror and panic and it's being used by people like desantis to motivate fears and grievance and for his own political and selfish ends. Okay, so Ron DeSantis says this course has no place in the state of Florida and the college board responds by doing what. That's sort of unclear. I mean, they removed all of those sections from the course, but denied that it had anything to do with Ron DeSantis. They said that the college board has to scrutinize what it's going to do and has to eliminate some things. We at the college board don't really look to the statements of politicians, but we do look to the record of history. So when we revise the course, there are only two things we went to. We went to at brandy described, which was the feedback from teachers and students, as well as 300 professors who have been involved in building the course, and we went back to principles that have guided AP for a long time and served us well. But most educators assume that there was a connection that Ron DeSantis did play a role in this. It's more likely that the college board said, okay, well, what are the things that are causing controversy? Let's get some of them out. The college board released the official curriculum yesterday. The Black Lives Matter movement and reparations are now listed as optional project topics. And according to The New York Times, several trailblazing black authors were removed, including bell hooks, who wrote about race and feminism. And many people view this as creating an AP light in African American studies because in the African American community today, affirmative action does matter. Black Lives Matter matters. Many people are shocked at some of the things that have been taken away. It is incomprehensible that to see that this is what this band or this block to be more specific that desantis has put forward. If you think about the study of black Americans, that is what he wants to block, and again, these types of actions aren't new, they're not new from what we're seeing, especially from Florida, sadly. The college board is saying, we did not bow to political pressure. A lot of informed people are saying, nah, it looks like they did. If the college board did bow to political pressure, what's the problem with that? Well, the problem with that is the college board's job is to create educational materials on a range of subjects. The college board should not be bowing to political pressure. That's not what it does. That's not what it should do. Always good to have you in the studio, ta nehisi Coates. So what concerns you most about the revisions that you're hearing? Well, really what concerns me is the climate around the revisions. I'm certainly not the person with qualifications to design a curriculum for AP even AP for African American studies. I think the board should be free to do that work and do that pilot programs and go through the process. And not be influenced not just by my thoughts, but by the thoughts of governors, legislatures who are passing laws who apparently just want to curriculum that makes people feel comfortable and feel good about themselves. Now let's say that I'm a student who will take this AP course in the coming year. What will I be learning

"Because there were a lot of folks who came down from the northeast because we had a huge amount of land that and agriculture that could have failed our country. You really could have been in ruin, that they came down at least. Those people may not even have owned enslaved people. But those enslaved formerly enslaved people, they likely were there before the war. And they can give you clues. And so I would say, definitely trace back as far as you can, you can use resources like the freed men's bureau, which is an incredible record set that is totally understudied and underutilized where you have, you know, it only was really an operation for like 8 years, but it's the federal government coming in to stabilize the country. And doing things like providing ration, schooling, marrying people, facilitating labor contracts between former slave owners and the formerly enslaved, certain aspects of the United States color troops, they were over. All of that stuff, it's the first time you can see people documented as people and not with dollar values across from their name as property. So you have that, you've got probate, and or successions where a slaveholders died before 1865, they'll have an inventory of property and that will include things like beds and carriages and wagons along with people. You also have things like mortgages or even land transactions. A lot of people will come across those documents and think, oh, no one cares about 7% interest and this payment, not reading down to the bottom. Well, how did they secure that loan? Sometimes it's with people. So you will see, in consideration for the terms of this loan, so and so puts up the following Negro men and women slaves. And don't corral slavery to just being a southern thing because slavery was legal across the entire country. You had people going out to California during the gold rush, bringing slaves, and knowing that slavery was not legal, and that they had 365 days to keep that enslaved person in California and on the 364th, they could take them out and restart the clock. People did that. Wow. There's gradual Emancipation in the northern states where I, oh, hey, slavery's over, but you got to stay in slate until you're 21. That happened in the north. Then you have free people of color, individuals who were never enslaved who typically lived in enclaves together to protect themselves. You had fewer live enslaved people. You know, folks just think it was very black and white, and it wasn't. And when we encounter these gray things, we don't understand how people lived in, but we live in great stuff now. And people later are not going to understand how we lived in gray and gray stuff. So yeah, so besides freed men's bureau, 1870, 1880 census, successions, or probates, land records, lanterns, if you go back to that 8000, that's one of the reasons why I have people documented enslaved people documented 15 times is because their slaveholders were mortgaging against them yearly. So that list of 250 people, every year because they're there as the collateral, it is serving as a census for me.

"So the fact that we have, again, it's sort of, I would say it's probably the earliest sort of DNA project that I ever had. It's totally informed other things that I've done, you know, one of the largest projects that I'm over because close to 8000 people have identified that are connected to one plantation set of plantations between Louisiana and Mississippi and the only way I found out about it was because of DNA. That was it. I would have never found it on paper. Yeah, because how would we with people of formerly enslaved ancestors? There's gonna not be as much documents as other people will have. And you have an awesome YouTube video on this. We're gonna link to it in the show notes. But could you share with us a little bit about how people can begin to track down their formally enslaved ancestors and what records you recommend for people to seek because you've done this for your own family and helped other people and other families. Right. And I think that one of the biggest thought processes that people have is that they just weren't documented, right? Like at all. And when you think about the fact that this was a system that was really driven on money, these were individuals who were walking around and they were literally money on two legs. So when you think about it from that vantage point, which I mean, you have to sort of detach yourself emotionally from the fact that people themselves were monetized, not their work, not, you know, that people were monetized, then you think about it from the different vantage point. How could I have documented that money on paper? Or that person on paper because that's my wealth. So to add to that, I think of the example I just gave with the 8000. I knew my family going back to a certain period, but I kept finding all these matches from this county just across the state line. And it wasn't making sense, like, why? We don't have anybody that was there, so literally 30 people, that's not three. That's not 5. That's 30 people. This is, this is almost like the ancestors setting up a neon sign and flashing it at you. Like, look, look, look, look, look, it's right here. Here, stop ignoring me. Right. Right. And so one of the easiest things that people can do is look at the community, the ancestors are in. Especially if they were there prior to the Great Migration. Meaning prior to early 1900s, really the 1950s or so when really when folks were moving around, look at the community that they're in, who are the other African American families that are there. Have you traced your ancestors as far back as you can get them? Have you gotten them to 1870 and 1880? Who's in community with them? Because with this group of 8000, that's how I found the connection to slavery. Was because they were all living around each other in 1870, 1880, 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930, 1940, 1950. They are all still living. Around each other now. But if you do things like look for the nearest white person because that's something that folks have taught for years, like, oh, look for the nearest white person. It has a lot of money in 1870. That's not foolproof.

"And in my head, I'm like, okay, so I don't think that really counts because if they look back, it's probably going to disappear. And as you're saying, it's because our databases are getting better and we're understanding, oh, that little piece of DNA, those little sequences, that actually came from this region and not what we originally thought. So it's not our DNA that's changing, but it's our understanding of how that fits in terms of human ancestry and just evolution. Now, part of that, with databases, is that databases have a lot of people of European ancestry in the databases. And they don't have as much non European ancestry or people with more recent lineage to Africa and other areas. So when I do a genetic test and I've done one through ancestor DNA, I for my paternal side, my dad's dad's side, I know that from family stories were from east cork, Ireland. And so when I go through with that, it actually does come up. East cork Ireland is the majority and then a little bit central cork and whatnot. But that's going to be different if that wasn't my ancestry. It's not going to be as specific from what I've heard from other people of different ancestry than me. Are there certain companies that you think are doing a better job than others or what you recommend in terms of having a more diverse database? I mean, I don't want to necessarily put you on the spot, I guess, with naming. But I guess any other thoughts with just having our databases be more diverse and inclusive? Well, part of the challenge with the inclusivity of databases is where people can get samples. That is that's also one of the things that we have to keep in mind. So if European countries are providing more of a sample size as opposed to certain African or even Asian locations, then the databases are going to have more predominant European ancestry within them.

"With this announcement if people watch sports and they're keeping track of like college football and Deion Sanders going from Jackson state to Colorado, right? I even connected that. I was talking to people. They're like, well, what do you mean? There is a connection. Historically black colleges and universities, they start because of segregation. And who had the opportunity to go and play and then how you have him who's Deion Sanders, historically, let's talk about him. He played two sports. People don't even do that anymore. He played baseball and he played football. And how his life journey is that. But now it's going into playing in Colorado, which traditionally you don't necessarily have a lot of black people there, but you do because of people moving out of the Deep South and exploring the country and trying to go for better opportunities. So you literally see how many touch points I just touched on with just Deion Sanders. All of these things connect back to history and genealogy. Like they just do. And we're living genealogy. We're living family history every day. We leave little nuggets and pieces behind that other people are going to come up either our descendants, direct descendants or family members are going to want to come and do research. They're going to want to know how in the world did the two of these people get together. Like, how are they on this podcast together? Like, how did they find each other? Right? All of that is genealogy, all of it is family history. And that's really what we're charged to do when we begin this journey is to try to figure out, well, how did these two people get together? Right? That's literally all it is, only instead of it being, you know, 2022, it's 1945, or it's 1782. And we can't talk about ancestry without bringing up genetic testing, obviously, right? You guys knew that was coming. So when we look at ancestry testing, we often are looking at the big companies, 23andMe, ancestry DNA, my heritage, why does the ancestry percentage change over time in these portals? So I know for one of my relatives, you know, they're like, wow, we're 1% Asian. And I knew I probably know kind of where you're how you're going to answer this. But eventually, that disappeared. So it didn't change. We didn't suddenly become that we're no longer 1% Asian. But can you explain how our genetic results can change over time? Absolutely. So genetic results are not always static. In fact, you actually kind of don't want them to be. The reason why is as the technology gets better as the algorithm of the tests that you've taken gets better. It's going to shift, you know? So I've seen people go out and get tattoos of their admixture on their arms and I'm like, oh, you might not want to do that. It's not going to happen. It's a temporary tattoo. Correct. Correct. But the reason why you don't want it to really stay stagnant is because again, things are getting better, you know? Dig about the first cell phone you ever had.

"Varied. But it was a time of good news and a bad news for black radio fans. A lot of things changed, but we're giving you some of the breakdown of some of the history on African Americans and radio, one of the things that we pointed out mean that you can jot down, you can go check out is who was the first black person to own a black radio station, right? And that was professors, Jesse, B Bible, seen. Told you about that. And we'll get into him as well on some of the things that he did, you know what I mean, animated. And also a lot of people question and they ask will. Radio station stored, you know what I mean? Featuring an Australian program for black audiences. You know what I mean? So for us, what race for African Americans started in the mid 20th century. And that's what radio was the most popular medium of mass communications. So programs target it specifically to black audiences, brought together their language, music, and politics and culture, creating new sense of community. Right. So there's a lot of them call it the golden age of radio to golden age of black radio. You know what I mean? So these are the types of, but it also the first radio station. We talked about that too in a breakdown in the information. The ERD was the first radio station owned and program by African American that station was established again in Atlanta, October 3rd, 1949.

"And the segregated society which America still was in the early days of radio, few major companies hard black people to executive or managerial positions. There was, of course, several world, the black newspaper, black armies, were qualified as people who could get, but in the 1920s there was no black owned radio stations. Nor would there even be one. It's in 1949. And the fact that the white men white men compromised 99% of station executives were seen as perfectly normal, right? So meanwhile, the Main Street radio magazines of the 1920s did not see it as their role to question radios of society's lack of diversity. Knowing that America was segregated, radio edited it seemed to believe that pictures of negroes as they were called back then doing supposedly white jobs would not be welcomed in many parts of the country. So even though there were a number of perspective black engineers and innovators, their faces were never shown in radio news or popular radio, were portrayals that reinforced stereotypes were considered acceptable. So one cover illustration in the radio magazine showed a terrified black man running away from a loud noise and not realizing it was only the radio. And just as women's contributions to early broadcasting were also overlooked or ignored, the same can be said about African Americans. The first radio station with an all black format, although the owners were white, was people probably say W, the a in this 1948, the first black station was in Atlanta, put on the air by Jesse blatant senior in October 1949 in the first black oriented oriented program service at national Negro network began in January of 1954. The long before these milestones African emergence had been involved with radio through social conditions in the ground reality of segregation and limited their participation. They were still part of the industry back in the 19 radio was called wireless, and it was done by images. Some of those amateurs were black. At least two hand radio clubs, one in New York City started by miles hardy. And when in Baltimore, by rolling puritan, were established to train young black images and Howard University Washington D.C. was perhaps the first of the judicially black colleges to offer courses in radio engineering, beginning in 1918. There is also some evidence that black performers were among the first to be heard on amateur radio. One early experimental station Roomba, white Emerson named Victor H laughter, right? So now to a concert while the father blew the D.C. handy message Tennessee in November of 1914 and speaking of losing $80 in 1920 just prior to the rival commercial broadcasting, made me Smith and her jazz hands had a huge national hit with the song crazy blues. So as to say, so 75,000 copies at the top in the first few weeks of a release and certainly show that the public like this kind of music. In broadcasting first year, we only had a handful of radio stations, right? There were other running. It was mainly volunteer effort, although a few large companies like winning house and general leche did on station advertisers was not permitted. So without a way to generate income, the first stations all operated on a very limited budget relying on anyone who was willing to come by and perform for free. Much of the programmer was live since audiotape had not been anything, and photograph records didn't sound that good or early equipment. There were no form this year, right? So the music varied

So in every picture of the story, the illustrations in the most of history, broadcasting Facebook, seem to say that all the important people in early radio were white and male with that picture is somewhat inaccurate as we consider the rest of the story. As many of the pioneers and innovators are broadcasting work for the major corporations such as RCA or GE and wind house, they have very efficient publicity, departments, spreading news about everything they did and making sure lots of their photos were printed in newspapers.

"Okay and we'll back. Great greenspan concede Yes so you know. We're we're talking a just speaking a little bit about policy and and non politics and things of that nature in our last segment. You know there's a lot of legislation that's always being pushed forward to inhibit all rights bear arms Recently i think we're looking at legislation that's looking to geez. There's so much to this. It's it's it's tough gun registration. We have to register your not. Just your guns ammo. You have to take an insurance policy per gun. Which makes it cost prohibitive for anyone's own a gun You'll matter what your financial bracket is You search and seizure as fourth amendment right Atf will be able to come into your house without a warrant in confiscate guns gun manufacturers could be sued for somebody that shot or whatever That there's so much even psychological evaluations Would you on. I think it's the most dangerous thing that we're going to be facing for this year in moving forward And i don't like to demonize any. Americans were all americans but we all have different views of our american. The future and i'll just say this anyone at is anti gun or doesn't believe a gun is a value. Add to that our our our country if you start taking away those liberties in those things that as relates to firearm. What you're gonna do have such a watered down version of the second amendment. It will be lift literally leaving this a few people that can literally go in affordable the gun. Because now you have to buy insurance you have to buy take a class. Classes mandatory that classes probably more than the gun itself. Then you have a waiting period in some cases thirty sixty ninety days that they're proposing so now you're looking at three months to get a gun. Plus an additional thousand dollars on top of the price of the gun go is really going to affect a lotta people. Particularly african americans in those individuals that are have limited budgets are limited income And i think that is very dangerous. We need really come together as a group regardless of who would organizations belonging to and kind of form a coalition because the other side is they're forming relationships in strategies to take away those gun rights from us so we need to do the same our side indeed that much more aggressive In a positive way to make sure we have those second amendment rights. And i'm this affirmed believer of that. Well i think one of the most glaring aspects of this new bill trying to put forward is the psychological evaluations. Because it's not just you that's going to have to go through the evaluation. Everybody that lives in your household wife your kids. You have In laura's parents leavenworth you can have to go under a psychological examined while because they'll be a firearm in the house and they're trying to evaluate your of sound mind to own a gun.
