Author Annette Gordon-Reed Traces History Of Texas Through Family Story | Morning Joe
Oh yes, I want the book.
So much black history that was not taught in school. We are learning more now. My 9 year old granddaughter is learning about Rosa Parks and prejudice. I am happy that much more is being taught in certain areas of our country but doubt it’s across the USA.
The Confederacy myth that white people are superior and have God given rights, is still not reconciled by the losers of our Civil War. I was born in Texas in 1956. Always being schooled by my father that our family had been cheated out of those rights. A big lie. The goons of Putin (GOP) are back on that road to nowhere. Fire them all 11/8/2022
Why does Fox value the political opinions of Brett Favre but Lebron James should “shut up and dribble”?
On Juneteenth. So proud of her.
I’ll be looking for her title on audio. The end of the segment was clipped. The very tail end, which I watched the DVR, is worth seeing.
It is true we all are part African
Thanks for the great discussion; looking forward to reading, “On Juneteenth.”
JIM CROW WAS A DEMOCRAT!!!
Does she acknowledge the slaves were owned by DEMOCRATS and the KKK were all DEMOCRATS.
what does it mean to ask if the country is racist? what do you mean by country? the culture? which one? the government? and if it isn’t, when did it stop being racist? after the abolition of slavery? after the end of official segregation? when?
what’s the relation between white/christian supremacy and the Overton window? there is one. can you see it?
I loved her book, The Hemingses of Monticello. Can’t wait to get my hands on her new one.
… we’re All God’s children..
I don’t understand as an MSNBC follower why they don’t or won’t confront the abortion issue, as that is all that unites these uneducated whites and their Bibles.
oh wow eddie was nothing but provocateur in this clip. in fact looked as if the author was being prompted to say that this isn’t just america’s original sin. but actually it’s mortal one too. which clearly makes sense due to the just prior hiring of a virulently racist president leading to something all need to believe as possible, if not highly probable…
brilliantly said, ty
She kinda sounds like Oprah
we are ALLL AFRICAN!!! see Nat’l Geographic’s GENETIC ADAM by Spencer Wells [years old]
THAT is what these news stations need to be reporting.
Annette Gordon Reed is pure excellence, ALLLL of her books are great!
people who constantly spread mis-information about slavery are the same idiots who “voted” to put a segregationist in the white house. LOL!
“We must believe in a future where color of skin is no more significant than color of hair” – Sam Harris
Nothing is sadder than a person that views others, and themselves, through the distorted lens of race.
What is dividing us, is more of a class struggle, which has been with us since the dawn of human civilization.
What poor people of all races want, is to blame other races for their poverty and hardship in life. And both parties pander to this horrible idea, for votes and support.
Nowwww….your trying tooo hard
The American people have had quite enough from the racist left
