Taking your calls, tweets, facebook posts for curators. Were joined inside with Robert Wilkins to talk about how this museum came about. He is the author of the book long road to hard truth. Thanks very much for being with us. Thank you. Its a pleasure to be here. So talk of this museum began back in 1916. It took a century to be built. Walk us through the process. Back in early 1916, in march or so, gentleman named ferdinand de soto lee, created a nonprofit called the National Memorial association, and its goal was to construct a physical memorial here in the Nations Capital to honor the contributions of negro soldiers and sailors who had fought in every war from the revolutionary war on up until that time. Within a couple years the organization broadened its mission to want to construct what they called a National Memorial building to negro achievement and contributions to america in all fields of endeavor from business to education to the arts, et cetera. Essentially a National Muse
Of a fifa investigation. Hes crying conspiracy. Ill have the details later in the program. Poils are protesting raised and arrests by israelis. There are deaths on both sides. Well start with an update from mike hanna live in the occupied west bank. Mike. This was declared to be a day of rage in response to events of recent days, in particular the intenseification of Israeli Military activity throughout the occupied west bank.

Recognized for his questions. Okay. Thank you. Id like to welcome my fellow e coloradans to washington, d. C. , gentlemen, thank you for your testimony, all of you, thank you for your testimony today. T part of this is i feel like, you know, were in the early stages of litigation, and i, the chairman, i think, maybe a frustrated litigator wanting to figure out who was negligent, who wasnt negligent, whos responsible for this, what happened. Appreciate the fact that the epa got to the department of health in colorado quickly, who got to durango, quickly. To share this. There apparently was some breakdown in communication getting to the Navajo Nation. A court is going to figure out o exactly what happened, when it happened, should it have happened, dr. Williamson, but id like to ask some other questions, because i think dr. A benn, you suggested some things that the epa should consider inn the short term and in the long term, one was help you with some monitoring devices to keep an eye o
And Genetic Information than any other human ever. That was not an official position, but this is what one of the researchers, their comment on this study. Theres probably 10 to 12 different experiments or at least universities doing experiments from the university of frankfort, stanford, purdue. Itll be interesting to see what the data shows on the genetic and molecular effects from this Long Duration space flight. My brother mentioned therell be a cliff. I think that needs a little bit further explanation, right . We have data on a lot of people out to six months in space. We have a pretty good idea what happens in that sixmonth period. We have no data beyond sixmonths, so maybe there becomes a bend in the curve. We know peoples vision gets worse over the sixmonth period. But maybe at nine months or ten months it gets really bad. Imagine youre trying to send a crew to go live and work on mars for an extended period of time, but by the time they get there theyre going to be nearly bli
Earlier wed been talking about the neutrality network, and Net Neutrality, i thought, was a little catchier. I didnt think it would catch on, but somehow it did. Host the president this week, proofer wu professor wu, spoke about Net Neutrality. Heres what he had to say. Im weighing out a plan to keep the internet free and open, and im urging the fcc to do everything they can to protect Net Neutrality for everyone. They should make it clear whether they use a computer, phone or tablet, internet providers have a legal obligation not to block or edit your limit to a web site. And they cant let any company pay for priority over its competitors. To put these protections in place, im asking the fcc to reclassify Internet Service under title ii of a law known as the telecommunications act. In plain english, im asking them to recognize that for most more thans the internet has become an essential part of everyday communication and everyday life. Host tim wu, whats your reaction to what the pre
