I ask my colleagues to rejection this objection, to respect the will of the voters in the state of arizona the debate continues. Then i start noticing some
Storytelling, about how we tell the story of our countrys past. Why do we want to believe one version and not another . Maybe because it makes us feel safe at night. There is one episode of americas history that is told very differently, depending on who you are and where you live. It is the story of our civil war and what came after. The Hot Winds Of War blew across the land. Made of it, a country divided. Friend turned into foe. Brother fought against brother. It was such a long and drawn out struggle. And the feeling on both sides was so intense. Were all just romantics, lost in contemporary times you might say. Every one of us feels like we were born 125 years too late. To introduce myself, my name is rachel boynton. This is nelson walker. We are independent documentary filmmakers. Were making a film about how we tell the story of the civil war. Were filming in different schools all over virginia and were going to place this with a deep connection to this history. What made you cho

Giuliani was blasted for being insensitive to minorities concerns. Rudy giuliani is and was a thug. I did not expect the shocking deevolution of Rudy Giuliani. The city is knocked to its knees.

I saw god out on the block today he was darker than the preachers say with a teardrop tattooed on his face and dirt in his fingers i heard angels when he laughed the way that people do when they have known true pain for his sins i dont know whos to blame what choice was he givin .
