how is everybody in charleston, or whichever room you are secluded in? great to see all of your faces, young and of later age. mayor riley said he's been working on the museum for about 21 1/2 years. and i think, mayor riley, our tenure together, i think i first met you during a mayor's institute in macon, georgia where you gave one of the most amazing speeches i've ever heard from a mayor to talk about cities, life, and people. i had never heard a politician speak that way so i was really moved by that. 20-some-odd years later we're still having that conversation. so i really, really honor and appreciate having your friendship. i'm going to share my screen now. and today's talk will be about a half hour and then we'll have time for questions. but the name of my talk today is "spirits in the landscape." i am a southerner. i'm from charlotte, north carolina. and it took me probably close to being in my 40s or so until i actually felt comfortable talking about, how can i say, my southern upbringing and the spirits that have guided my life. i wanted to star

of course, i'm not in charleston. i'm in connecticut where i live. i'm not in the holy city. but my heart is with you and i wish i could be with you. when the epidemic finally lifts, i'll make my reservations immediately to come spend some time once again. i want to talk today about the kluklux, refers to the militia. words that share familiarity that only people who knew actually marauders in the white supremacist movement could use. members of the ku klux klan from 150 years ago, when they first came together, did not see themselves as founders of movement. there's a lot of denial or unwillingness to look it in the face. when i started to work on this book, i began to meet african-american family after african-american family who had oral tradition that said my great great grandfather was man named ball and he came from this particular plantation. for reasons that you describe, there are few paper trails that you can follow that leads to the coupling of a white enslaver and enslaved woman. there are many african-american families who know who their

i am not in charleston. i'm in connecticut where i live. my heart is with you and i wish i could be with you. when the epidemic finally lifts, i will make my reservations immediately to come spend some time once again. i want to talk about the q clocks -- ku klux klan, referring to the group, the militias which show a familiarity the only people who knew actual marauders in the white supremacist moment would use. members of the ku klux klan from 150 years ago when they first came together did not see themselves as founders of a movement. they would have not thought their great-great-grandchildren would be talking about that and yet not only are we talking about the ku klux klan, the angry and ignorant and vicious a gangs of reconstruction men who disguised themselves and hurt and killed people, not only are we talking about them. we are circulating ideas today that recall those of the ku klux klan's perpetrating acts the resemble those carried out by the first clans. i hope you can see some pictures on the screen. let me take you to el paso

and so i went to the democrat -- they had a convention, downtown charleston. i walked in there, and i saw a state senator. i'll never forget. i walked up to him and said, "hey, i'm tim scott. and today i'm looking at running for county council. a seat's just been vacated, so it's an open seat." he's like, "you know, young man, you may have some potential there, but you need to get in the back of the line, serve your way to the front of the line." i was like, "that sounds terrible." if you've got the burning desire to run, you should run. i went back to my friends who i'd been talking to already within the republican party. they said, "tim, you do realize that there's never been a black elected countywide as a republican." i'm like, "i know." and he said, "well, if you're willing to try, we will support you. your philosophy and your values matches ours. let's do it." and grace of god and the voters of charleston county, i was able to win that first race comfortably, and it worked out really well. >> you say you're called to serve all americans, not just black a

while, in charleston, there is the church in 1822 a man as you know was accused of plotting and insurrection. how did he get free? this is one of the ironies of history and complexity of slavery he was enslaved in 1799 and later the lottery like he plays the grocery store and he won $1,500 and used 600 of the 1500 to by his own freedom from his the so-called owners so after 1800 he was free and in 1822, he was a very prominent man. we don't know if there was an insurrection that was being plotted but accused of leading this plot in charleston and he was found guilty and of course he was executed. the church was completely destroyed. now there was enormous sensitivity isn't even the right word. there was paranoia because the haitians had defeated the greatest army on earth, napoleon bonaparte when napoleon became emperor he wanted to reinstitute on the islands the name of haiti -- >> and a particular brutal form of slavery. >> the average lifespan on a sugar plantation was seven years. the richest colony of the history of the world and because of sugar, sugar was like crack. forgive me for us

and then to visit charleston international african-american. this has taken so many twists and turns in the pivotal movement and acceptable moment looking through bins in tennessee and to come across. and then for $20. and then to be discovered is not at all what it seems. because in fact even more compelling have enslaved women's lives or craftwork or black families or inheritances. things are passed down it is a common family practice and one i have been fortunate enough to engage in as well so books and photographs from parents and grandparents. but with that condition it is that difference that we feel very familiar that draws our focus to see the wealth because in this case a black mother with no financial assets of the enslaved woman in charleston in the 18 fifties so in that moment that we can scarcely imagine that there is a variety of items. and then at nine -year-old little girl named ashley. when she learned she was to be sold away from her she got on her feet and she made a may have been the final judgment call. what is required to

she was an enslaved woman in charleston in 1860 and she was about to have her child. in a moment of grave threat that we can scarcely imagine, she grabbed the sack that we are talking about tonight. the things in my mother's pants down and she put in a variety of items rated the site would not be for rose as the name suggests, instead it would be for the child who would soon be born, a little girl named ashley. when rose learned that ashley would be taken from her she got on her feet, and with foresight and she made what would've been - and she should've act of asked us of the moment, what is required to keep this one small personal life. [inaudible]. and the answer to that question it, maybe the things that she packed into the second day. a dress, abrade, and a mother's love. today, none of these items still exist within the sack in fact, roses love so and all that she carried, i think about an open up discussion of of her thoughts of the thoughts of her things in her sack with "all that she carried". and travel to the past and sense where she arrived with his enslav

>> guest: this is the so-called charleston loophole. the house of representatives has passed a bill to deal with this. if you are prohibited from owning a gun right now if you are a felon or convicted of certain misdemeanors or if you've been arrested for a crime and not yet convicted if the prison term is going to be at least a year than you could possibly get -- dylann roof fit none of those categories. he had been arrested for misdemeanor drug offense where the maximum time would have been six months or they could have spent 30 years looking for his background and he wouldn't been prohibited from owning a gun. what they want to do with this law that passed the house and is before the senate is to make it so the government can delay selling guns for 30 days. my argument is that you want to make an argument that we should have 30 days waiting period make that argument that don't claim you would have stopped this crime by having this particular law in effect. they rap it around this crime that they say would have been convicted when rea

here in charleston, the port of charleston through covid we have been 24/7 this entire time. government has to get out of the way to solve the problem. mike: on the issue of inflation, what is troubling your constituents the most, is it the fuel prices, is it the cost at the grocery store, is it all of the above and, you know, the white house has used the term transitory for months, have they been in denial about the extent of the problem? >> i think they've been denial about the extent of the problem. here in my district it's all of the above and the administration they've not been factual with the american people, the spending that we are talking about, we did the care's act earlier this year, 1.9 trillion. we are doing infrastructure tomorrow at 1.2 trillion on top of the covid spending all last year and now we are talking about 1.75 trillion for the build back better plan. the spend asking going to contribute massively to our inflation woes and 1.5 trillion does not account for cost of government programs. as senator manchin said a few weeks ago, democrats are playing a s

i found that in my district for congress, when i was running for congress, in charleston, it was, if you know any american history, you probably know that charleston is the birthplace of the civil war, first shots fired and you probably know that strom thurman was a powerful person-- anyone know strom thurmon, knowing that you're not asleep. running against strom thurmon's son in south carolina for a congressman district was a daunting and scary task, but what occurred is that the people in charleston the 1st congressman district wanted someone that they had confidence in not someone who necessarily looked like them, and in a 75 or 78% white district, against a very good person, paul and i are still friends to this day. i was successful because i presented a message that resonateed with who they are. sometimes we as candidates think it's about us, and we talk about our amazing, you know, reputation or our resume'. truth be told, most people are most interested in their family and their kids, not you. and if we remember that, we're probably going to be a lot better off when understand

army of tennessee is reconstructed and is joined by forces that have been pulled out of garrisons like charleston and wilmington any cobbles this force together and he gets supplied and re- equipped and reorganized administratively, as they fight at the battle of bentonville in march. here in eastern north carolina, not far from raleigh that was a big battle for the last battles of the war. johnson school is to destroy the army before these armies can match unit comes up short but it was a good effort. in the johnston holdback through rally in the central part of north carolina. through durham towards greensboro is taken i 85 and he knows that area. [laughter] but what he is doing is he is keeping his army just out of reach of sherman. he commands much larger force and sherman is been reinforced by the troops and johnston keeps his army together and that's a pretty big deal in march and april of 1865 and he keeps it out of reach of sherman's troops. and by time we get to the greensboro area they've heard about the fall of richmond and so johnston will in his words, he will say something like no h

. >> growing up in charleston, history was important, one of most important places where slaves came through, i think 2/3 or three quarters of all slaves early on came through charleston, you were always emersed in history, telling whole story is important. i don't think i got that early in my education, the story is progress takes patience. i love the tension between frederick douglass and president lincoln. at same time, you have to admire and respect lincoln's patience. his primary objective was to keep the nation together it took civil war to unite the nation. brian: what it started, they said it was not a war in the beginning to free slaves if lincoln had said that he would not have much of a lincoln army. >> when i grew up in a a -- segregated school, we were taught it was an honorable endeavor and did not work out. the truth is, it was about slavery. brian: to civil war. as an african-american kid how did it take tell the story. >> the war of aggression i heard, that frames history differently. as i became more familiar with it, you became really you understood why we had such

they exhibited the charleston international african-american museum. this has taken so many twists and so many turns on the journey to the various sites in our country. with the pivotal moment of the phistory took place when a free-market shopper just like me was looking in tennessee and coming and came across the fact that look like rocket was being built up. >> around $20. she bought it and discovered it was not what is seen. in fact even more compelling that it was taken of the many stories that it was built for us enslaved black women's lives in their textile or craftwork. about heirloom and inheritance. about love. >> it's passed down the cheshire and it's become a family practice in this one i binning able to engage in as well. my grandmother and my great aunt. in the article of clothing that we received from parents and grandparents in her grandmothers. and with that tradition it also stands apart from it. it is the difference as something that we are very familiar that arrest our attention and driver focus for us to see as well with the simple
