Theres a scene on the day of the vote where Fernando Wood is waving papers saying i have affidavits. Thats not 19th century congress. Thats what you realize when you see a movie like lincoln. Or think about mr. Smith goes to washington, almost all of what we think we know about past politics comes from movies. And popular culture, and we absorb it so much, we think its real. Thats why its so important to try to sort it out. I dont want to be one of those scholar squirrels that gore vidal used to make fun of, but thats what i have been doing, digging around in the script and pointing out the small differences, but ultimately, they matter. As much as i think youre right, the Lincoln Movie will produce good things, when we teach it, teachers need to be aware of how it departs from what we know about the record. Greg.

Location and at the very end she says, tara, home, i will go home. Right . So thats going to fix it. Thats an incredibly powerful sense. I think this adds an element that these people werent fighting so they could keep people in subjugation. This is where they grew up and had a right to fight for their homes. It makes them feel more look crusaders rather than the version that they wanted black people to keep working for them so they could keep sipping their tea. What are some of the other ways that we see the time period affecting this particular version of history . So paige points out when the premier emerges, theres actually actual kinds of confederate flags and veterans show up at the premier, right .

Both hannah and germ jeremy ta about the portrayal of the north in this. How much do you think this fits into its being made at the time period t ....
Those hospitals. I think brooke put in our comment too that the women werent really around the men changing bandages but scarlet was all up in there. Shes was literally watching what was going on. Women usually removed from that because they were that pure for that sort of thing. She was kind of like a traditional, say your typical war nurse you would think of. Thats really not what it was like. Another thing to think about is that all of the hospital scenes that are portrayed are in the south at the end of the war so there are very few men around to help as nurses anyway. So there was a greater chance that women would take up these roles as acting as nurses whether she would do it in garb to do it is an entirely different matter but it is certainly possible to have women filling those roles in hospital.

For example in cuba. Ive asked you in this room several times because you mention valenzuela that the president has condemned in valenzuela but has not done the same with other leaders and countries. The president has no problems with some and not with others. And ill ask you one more time why is valenzuela different from turkey or russia or the philippines . I think what the president is focused on is being effective. Effective in advancing and protecting human rights and advancing the rule of law. Youve seen him do that in his relationship with we have seen him do it quietly in every relationship. So how much does it help to yell about these problems .

And the president has done quite a bit. And will continue to do more to advance and protect human rights across all of our relationships. General, with the presiden ....
