It seems that north korea, this situation, is getting pretty grave. We are just in the early stages of executing. Very deliberate strategy. The president says a m conflict with north korea is possible. Do you think its likely that the u. S. Is headed for a military confrontation . All scenarios are on the table so it is all up to north korea. House leaders shelved the vote on Gop Health Care legislation. That cleared the way for the budget vote. I think were making very good progress. Were going to go when we have the vote snooze two u. S. Army rangers have been killed and a third soldier wounded fighting isis in afghanistan in a raid against the terror group. I honestly it not understand why the white house is covering up for Michael Flynn. But all of that clearance was made by the obama during the Obama Administration. Any regrets about Michael Flynn . United airlines has reached a settlement with a man removed from the flight. The financial terms have not been made public. Macedonia
Atlanta. Both times he was greeted as a hero. Many atlantans said thank you for taking the torch to our Downtown Business area and getting rid of it. Weve been able to rebuild. The phoenix has risen. This is the symbol of atlanta is the phoenix rising. And so he was greeted as a hero by. People. It wasnt until the lost cause and the development of that narrative really kicks in in the late 19th century early 20th century that sherman becomes demonized to the extent he was. Theres a great book. I have my list of books and i figured somebody would ask me whats good to read. One of them that i would recommend to you is a book by Ann Sarah Ruben called through the heart of dixie, and looks at shermans march and the memory of how it develops on both sides. Another great book is called shermans march in myth and memory. They explore this is phenomenon of what sherman comes to represent. From their argument, he comes to represent everything thats the antithesis of the cavalier society. Its th
Were moving for and if you dont believe in that you have no business supporting anyone other than George Mclelland and the democratic ticket. If you are a republican, in 1864, youre going to do everything you can to deflect the emphasis on race. You cannot win the election defined in terms of racial equality. You must win the election if youre going to win at all, defining the issue in terms of union. So what the republicans are going to stress above all is the disloyalty of the Democratic Party. Theyre going to link the Democratic Party with the south. Theyre going to emphasize the Democratic Partys support for a ceasefire, at least according to its platform. And so you have other images. Again im going to skip over. There are other images about mesogenation here. Heres one particular republican car too that shows the Democratic Party in 1832 and 1864. This should resinate to some degree. 1832 is the midst of whats called the nullcasi if icasion process nullinicatoin process, stanch a
Emancipation. Its important to us. Because when we think about a reunified United States in the aftermath of civil war, what conclusion must we draw. Clearly, a large majority of the American Free population was not enthusiastic about emancipation. And to come back to a final theme that has been the bedrock of this course throughout, in a democratic society, where a large majority holds a particular value, that is inconsistent with the interest of minority, theres not much reason to be optimistic for the rights of that minority. Remember James Madison had said if majority be united by a common interest, the rights of the minority will be insecure. I think that is a foreshadowing of the history of reconstruction on end through the rest of the 19th into the 20th centuries. So very fast whirlwind overview. Next time, were going to zero in on Abraham Lincoln and were going to enter into conversation with him because what lincoln is trying to do more than anything else is shape how we remem
Right . Which is supposed to be saying a Little Something about his masculinity, and he is accompanied, of course, by the peace democrat riding a donkey. The whole idea is to say this is a ludicrous, ludicrous combination. In the end nothing matters more than the fall of atlanta. Nothing matters more than the belief that the war is again being won, and the result in the end was abraham lincolns very comfortable electoral victor. You will see here he takes 91 of the electoral vote, but the one thing id want to stress is that his opponent takes 45 of the popular vote. 45 of northerners cast a ballot for a party who has declared the war a failure and has unanimously repudiated emancipation. Its important to us because when we think about our reunified United States in the aftermath of the civil war, what conclusion must we draw . Clearly a large majority of the American Free population was not enthusiastic about emancipation, and to come back to a final theme that has been the bedrock of
