MR. MAX RODRIGUEZ. [APPLAUSE] |
| 00:04:40 |
|
THANK YOU, AND WELCOME TO THE TENTH . |
| 00:04:44 |
|
10 THANK YOU YEN WON'T GO INTO THE 10 DASH YEAR-OLD HARLEM BOOK FAIR, THE CONVERSATION THIS MORNING... |
| 00:05:41 |
|
AND WHAT WE WANT TO DO THIS MORNING IS JUST TALK . |
| 00:05:46 |
|
WHAT WE WANT TO DO THIS MORNING IS TALK ABOUT WEB PUBLISHING IS AND WHAT IT REPRESENTS IN THE COMMUNITY,... |
| 00:07:02 |
|
I WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN THE CONVERSATION WITH PERMISSION. [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:07:13 |
|
SERIOUSLY. I WANT TO BEGIN WITH CONCEPTUALIZING 40 YEARS OF BLACK PUBLISHING FIRST OF ALL,. I WENT... |
| 00:10:40 |
|
THAT IS MY TWO SENTENCES. [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:10:43 |
|
I SECOND WHAT YOU JUST SAID. IT IS SO IMPORTANT THAT WE RECOGNIZE THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US. AND WE... |
| 00:11:17 |
|
I AM SORRY, ONCE AGAIN. OF LIKE TO MAKE A REQUEST OF THE AUDIENCE NOT TO USE FLASH WHILE WE ARE VIDEOTAPING.... |
| 00:11:27 |
|
YOU CANNOT REALLY RECOGNIZE A WAS WITHOUT RECOGNIZING THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US LIKE THE FREDERICK... |
| 00:12:42 |
|
MINE IS IN HERE. LAST NIGHT WHEN WE WERE AT THE PHYLLIS WHEATLEY AWARDS, WHICH WAS WATERFALL, A VERY... |
| 00:15:37 |
|
THANK YOU. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT CHILDRENS' BOOK PUBLISHING, EXCUSE ME, AND THERE IS NO BLACK HARRY... |
| 00:16:00 |
|
I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF OUR STRUGGLE AND THE HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF... |
| 00:17:37 |
|
SO, WOULD YOU MIND IF I DEVELOP THAT SYSTEM A BIT MORE HERE? ON THE CROSSOVER EFFECT OF HARRY POTTER,... |
| 00:18:17 |
|
AND, I THINK THE IMPORTANT POINT THOUGH THAT CHERYL MATE IS MARKETING. SCHOLASTIC PUT A LOT OF MONEY... |
| 00:18:54 |
|
I THINK, I CAN'T ADD, I THINK WE NEED TO KIND DEFINE OURSELVES, CONTINUE TO DEFINE OURSELVES. I DON'T... |
| 00:20:04 |
|
MAX, IN TERMS OF CONTEXT CHULLIZING OUR STORY, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO TIE UP THE TWO ITEMS HERE. ... |
| 00:20:14 |
|
RIGHT. |
| 00:20:16 |
|
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT IN OUR HISTORY IN THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN CONTEXT IS THE ROLE THAT AFRICAN-AMERICAN... |
| 00:20:48 |
|
UH-HUH. |
| 00:20:50 |
|
SPECIFICALLY SAYING THESE ARE THE STORIES WE NEED TO TELL, THESE ARE THE STORIES WE NEED TO READ AND... |
| 00:21:30 |
|
AND HOW HAS CONSOLIDATION IMPACTED YOUR ACCESS TO MARKET, OR WHAT HAVE YOU CREATED IN THIS PHASE OF... |
| 00:21:43 |
|
WHAT DO YOU MEAN? |
| 00:21:46 |
|
THE MEGASTORES, THE SHRINKING OF THE BLACK BOOKSTORES, THE VIABILITY OF THE BOOKSTORES. |
| 00:21:52 |
|
YOU ARE ASKING WHAT ARE THE ALTERNATIVES ARE? |
| 00:21:58 |
|
WE HAVE FEWER BLACK BOOKSELLERS. GIVEN THAT BLACK BOOKSELLERS ARE UNTENABLE TO MARKETING YOUR STORIES,... |
| 00:22:08 |
|
WE HAVE ALL SET UP WONDERFUL WEB SITES. |
| 00:22:15 |
|
YOUR QUESTION IS A QUESTION THAT, THE ANSWER WAS RIGHT ON POINT IN TERMS OF HOW BLACK BOOKSTORES HAVE... |
| 00:24:36 |
|
MAX, A PUBLISHER IS A MARKETER, A PUBLISHER IS A PUBLICIST. IT IS THEN ALL IN COMPRISING MEDIA SITUATION.... |
| 00:25:23 |
|
THAT WAS NOT SUBTLE. |
| 00:25:26 |
|
TELL US ABOUT -- YES, I GOT IT. TELL US ABOUT YOUR PUBLISHING BECAUSE YOU PUBLISH AFRICA WORLD PRESS... |
| 00:25:46 |
|
AFRICA THE PRESS HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE FOR 25 YEARS AGO IT CAME FROM THE EXPERIENCE THAT I AS AN INDIVIDUAL... |
| 00:28:11 |
|
VERY GOOD. |
| 00:28:14 |
|
LET ME JUST ADD A COUPLE OF POINTS. YOU ARE SO RIGHT, BECAUSE WE HAVE GONE A COUPLE OF TIMES THROUGH... |
| 00:29:25 |
|
WE HAVE ON LINE STORES AS WELL SO YOU REALLY HAVE TO LOOK FOR AS MANY OPTIONS TO GET YOUR BOOKS AND... |
| 00:29:58 |
|
IT IS. YOU HAVE TO USE, WHAT MY THOUGHT ALWAYS WAS, WE DID NOT OWN IN OF TELEVISION STATIONS WHERE... |
| 00:31:46 |
|
AND, HOW ABOUT A CONVERSATION ABOUT IN THESE DAYS OF LAISSEZ-FAIRE, A VOTE IN BUSINESS, BLACK WRITERS,... |
| 00:32:31 |
|
WE HAVE DONE BOTH. WE HAVE HAD A LARGE PUBLISHING COMPANY COME TO US AND SYNAR COMPANY WHICH WAS JOHN... |
| 00:33:44 |
|
PAUL, YOU HAVE WORKED CLOSELY WITH WALTER MOSLEY IN PUBLISHING ONE OR TWO OF HIS BOOKS. ALTHOUGH WALTON... |
| 00:34:07 |
|
YOU KNOW, A GANN LIKE YOU SAY WALTER PROBABLY IS THE BEST TO ANSWER THAT. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I... |
| 00:37:45 |
|
I THINK FOR CHILDREN'S PUBLISHING, IT IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT BECAUSE TRADITIONALLY CHILDREN'S BOOK... |
| 00:39:28 |
|
ONE THING THAT WOULD ADD TO THIS, THE AUTHORS DO NOT NECESSARILY GO FOR THE MONEY. ALTHOUGH THE MONEY... |
| 00:40:25 |
|
WHAT WE FOUND ALSO IS THAT AUTHORS, ONE IN PARTICULAR AUTHOR OF OURS IS JAKE BROWN TO THROUGH OUR... |
| 00:41:54 |
|
THE OTHER POINT TO IS THAT MOST BOOKS DON'T REALLY MAKE MONEY. YOU KNOW, THERE ARE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS... |
| 00:43:12 |
|
GET DE BOOKS FROM WILEY? |
| 00:43:13 |
|
JIM HASKINS, WE PICKED UP FOR HIS BOOKS. HE IS NOW DECEASED, BUT JIM HASKINS, I GUESS HE MUST HAVE... |
| 00:44:27 |
|
, SO YOU HAVE MORE LIMBAUGH. |
| 00:44:30 |
|
RABBI IS A COLLABORATION OF A PARTNERSHIP THAT WE STRUCK WITH KENSINGTON PUBLISHING AND THAT PARTICULAR... |
| 00:45:35 |
|
AND, URBAN FICTION. JUST A QUICK CONVERSATION ABOUT URBAN FICTION. SOME SAY IT IS STEREOTYPED. SOME... |
| 00:45:59 |
|
I HAVE A LOT OF MIXED FEELINGS ON IT BECAUSE OF MY BACKGROUND. COMING FROM THE PROJECTS AND ALL OF... |
| 00:48:56 |
|
I SORT OF DISAGREE. WHIFF CHILDRENS BOOKS, IF I MAY, WITH CHILDREN'S BOOKS AND JUSTICE BOOKS, OUR... |
| 00:50:32 |
|
YOU ARE AGREEING. [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:50:38 |
|
A CHILD BECOMES AN ADULT. WE WERE ONCE CHILDREN, SO WHAT WE SEE AS A CHILD IMPACTS OUR EDUCATION,... |
| 00:51:00 |
|
WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE THE FIRST PERSON? |
| 00:51:03 |
|
I WAS TRYING TO BE NICE. I DISAGREE WITH THEM. [LAUGHTER] I DISAGREE. I WAS TRYING TO LET IT GO. ... |
| 00:54:41 |
|
WHO WILL BE THE FIRST TO ASK THE FIRST QUESTION OF THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HARLEM BOOK FAIR? ... |
| 00:54:58 |
|
MY QUESTION IS, IF ALL OF YOU HAVE PUBLISHING COMPANIES AND TIMES GET LEAN, HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT... |
| 00:55:08 |
|
LUCKY ROLL UP? |
| 00:55:11 |
|
A RECIPROCAL AGREEMENT OF SOME SORT. WHEN THINGS GET BETTER YOU GO BACK TO YOUR OLD WAYS, BUT HAVE... |
| 00:55:20 |
|
YOU KNOW, THAT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED AND I USE THE TERM ROLL UP BECAUSE THERE IS A BROTHER WHO IS A LAWYER,... |
| 00:56:50 |
|
I THINK ALSO, THE KIND OF BOOKS THATuLn WE PUBLISH REALLY VERNO CARRIERRINGCONNECT 240 DIFFERENT .2.... |
| 00:57:43 |
|
I THINK IT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION ANDvn I THINK THERE IS A FUTURE IN IT SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY.... |
| 00:57:53 |
|
THANK YOU FOR COMING. I JUST WANT TOwznm ASK WHETHER GENRES THAT ARE MOREMXn FUTURISTIC LOOKING LIKE... |
| 00:58:19 |
|
AGAIN, YOU WANT TOfn LOOK AT THE PANEL THAT IS UPg THIS IS A PANEL, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF WAdknE AND... |
| 00:59:09 |
|
THANK YOU. |
| 00:59:10 |
|
IF I COULD PIGGYBACK ON THAT, PARTICULARLY AS IT APPLIES TO NON-FICTION AND CHILDRENS. AS WE LOOK... |
| 01:00:15 |
|
HALF OF OUR BOOKS AREU AVAILABLE AS E BOOKS AT7nn WWW.AMBER BOOKS.COM, SOqknn WE TRY -- THATSM IS... |
| 01:00:35 |
|
WITH CHILDREN'S BOOKS, I THINK IT IS A VIABLE OPTION. WE HAVE NOT DONE AUDIO BOOKS THAT WE WILL BE... |
| 01:00:53 |
|
I THINK THERE IS BEEN MORE LICENSING TO SOMEONE WHO'S DOING THE CANDLE BOOK FOR EXAMPLE. MOST OF US... |
| 01:01:30 |
|
WE HAVE GOT A LOT OF REQn?n/ESTS FROMrrn COMPANIES THAT DO ELECTRONIC BOOKS. ASKEn I SAID, WE HAVE... |
| 01:02:02 |
|
I WOULD LIKEan TO KNOW WHAT YOU WILL HAVE DONE IN THE PAST;Sn IN TERMS OF MARKETING TO COLLEGES ANDvpn... |
| 01:04:46 |
|
SIMILAR TO THAT BEING IN A SIMILAR SITUATION A LOT OF OUR BOOKS ARE USED PARTICULARLY BY PEOPLE WHO... |
| 01:05:58 |
|
WE ONLY SEARCH FOR EVERY LIBRARY IN THE COUNTRY WHETHER PRISON LIBRARY, A COLLEGE LIBRARY, UNIVERSITY,... |
| 01:06:21 |
|
[INAUDIBLE] |
| 01:06:48 |
|
TALK ABOUT HOW THEY HAVE INCREASED THEIR SALES BECAUSE THEY GET IN CONTACT WITH MILITARY PEOPLE, ARMY... |
| 01:07:03 |
|
THAT IS A REALLY TREMENDOUS MARKET. WE DISCOVER THAT MARKET EARLY ON AND WE SOLD A LOTuen WE SOLD... |
| 01:07:24 |
|
I AM GOING TO ASK, REQUEST AS TO MAKE YOUR QUESTION, YOUrnn STAND AT THE MIC UNTIL THE QUESTION IS... |
| 01:08:20 |
|
IF I COULD ADDRESS THE POINT ABOUT PORNOGRAPHIC BOOKS, I THINK IT'S A WONDERFUL IDEA.n CHICHESTER... |
| 01:11:19 |
|
JUST QUICKLY, WE HAVE ACTUALLY PUBLISHED A COUPLE OF BOOKS WHERE WE HAVE USED PHOTOGRAPHS RATHER THAN... |
| 01:11:50 |
|
HOW DOES THE AUDIENCE FIND YOUR BOOKS? I DOMAIN AT THE BOOKSTORE I MEAN HOW MANY IN THE AUDIENCE ... |
| 01:12:42 |
|
YOU JOURNALS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN A CRITICAL SOURCE OF GETTING WORD OUT OF REALLY, THE APPEARANCE... |
| 01:13:12 |
|
I NEW LINE SHOULD NOT HAVE ASKED. WE ARE IMPACTED BY MARKET FORCES ESPECIALLY THE PRICE OF PRODUCTION... |
| 01:14:51 |

HE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. WE LOST A GREAT JOURNAL BEEN BBR I WAS WEANED ON IT THROUGH MY 10 YEARS IN... |

| 02:55:53 |
|
WOULD YOU CONSIDER ANY PARTICULAR REPORTER MORE COURAGEOUS THAN THE REST? |
| 02:56:00 |
|
NOT NECESSARILY -- MORE COURAGEOUS? I THINK WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT IS WHO WAS INFLUENTIAL. COURAGE... |
| 02:57:02 |
|
IS THERE ANY OTHER EVENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY THAT THE PRESS HAD TO USE SO MUCH COURAGE TO COVER AS... |
| 02:57:11 |
|
CERTAINLY NOT THAT I'M AWARE OF AND IT HAD GREAT INFLUENCE AND THERE WAS A TIME WHEN NEWSPAPERS WERE... |
| 02:57:35 |

| 03:07:02 |
|
THANK YOU. |
| 03:07:05 |
|
FIRST OF ALL, WHY DID I SAY THAT? |
| 03:07:11 |
|
MAYBE YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A MANLEY WHO HAS WELL? I DON'T KNOW. |
| 03:07:15 |
|
NO. IT DOES NOT GO WITH THE NAME MANLEY, NOT YET. |
| 03:07:21 |
|
OKAY, LET'S START OF THE BEGINNING. WHY DID YOU WRITE THIS BOOK? |
| 03:07:26 |
|
I WROTE THE BOOK BECAUSE FOUR NUMBER OF YEARS PEOPLE APPROACHED ME AND SAID IN 1970'S IN JAMAICA YOU... |
| 03:08:05 |
|
I AM SURE EVERYBODY IS CURIOUS ABOUT THE MICHAEL MANLEY PART BUT LET'S START OF THE BEGINNING WHERE... |
| 03:08:15 |
|
I GREW UP LIKE THE MAJORITY OF JAMAICANS, I GREW UP IN A WORKING-CLASS FAMILY. MY FATHER WAS AN AGENT... |
| 03:10:02 |
|
WE DON'T DEAL WITH YELLOW. DIFFERENT SHADES OF BROWN. |
| 03:10:05 |
|
HIGH YELLOW -- |
| 03:10:07 |
|
OKAY. SO YOU WERE THE DARKER SHADE OF BROWN. |
| 03:10:11 |
|
IT WASN'T SEEN THAT WAY, I WAS BLACK. NOT DARK. |
| 03:10:17 |
|
AND HOW MANY OF YOU IN THE FAMILY. |
| 03:10:19 |
|
IN IT, WITHIN THE NUCLEAR FAMILY THERE WERE THREE SISTERS, TWO SISTERS BECAUSE ME AND MY BROTHER CAME... |
| 03:10:44 |
|
AND AFTER HE DIED, WHEN WE WERE AT THE FUNERAL WE DISCOVERED ANOTHER SISTER WAS BORN THE SAME YEAR... |
| 03:11:11 |
|
OKAY THEN, HAVE AN IDEA OF YOUR FATHER, TELL ME WHAT KIND OF A PERSON WAS YOUR MOTHER, THEN. |
| 03:11:21 |
|
SHORT, SHE WAS ABOUT 5'4", FEISTY. BROUGHT UP BY A FATHER WHO TAUGHT HER TO STAND UP AND SHE WAS... |
| 03:11:56 |
|
AND SHE SAID WHY ARE YOU MARRYING AN OILED MAN WHO HAS ALREADY GOT MARRIED THREE TIMES, YOU ARE CRAZY... |
| 03:13:25 |
|
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT ONE DRAWERS. |
| 03:13:28 |
|
ONE DRAWERS, UNDERWEAR. ONE. I'M SACRIFICING TO HAVE ONE. SO YOU CAN GO TO SCHOOL AND LEARN, SO I... |
| 03:13:43 |
|
HOWEVER, IN THE BOOK YOU DID SAY SHE WAS A CLEAN PERSON. |
| 03:13:47 |
|
OBSERVING LORD, SHE WAS OBSESSED WITH IT. AND YOU DON'T KNOW THOSE WORDS, OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE AND... |
| 03:13:56 |
|
INCLUDING THE ONE DRAWERS. |
| 03:14:01 |
|
OH, ESPECIALLY! YOU SHOULD ALWAYS WATCH HER -- NOBODY WOULD RESPECT YOU IF YOU DIDN'T DO THAT. AND... |
| 03:14:43 |
|
YOU MENTIONED SHOOEFS SHE SAID THIS OLD MAN. HOW MUCH OF AN AGE DIFFERENCE DID YOU HAVE -- |
| 03:14:49 |
|
17 YEARS. |
| 03:14:50 |
|
17 YEARS. |
| 03:14:52 |
|
WHICH MAY SEEM LIKE NOTHING BUT IN THOSE DAYS IT WAS QUITE A GAP. |
| 03:14:57 |
|
AND HE CAME NOON KNOCKING AT THE GATE. |
| 03:14:59 |
|
IT WAS A WALL OF WOMEN, I SAID, OPENLY, I MEAN, I WISH EVERY WOMAN COULD EXPERIENCE HIM HIM. [LAUGHTER]... |
| 03:15:12 |
|
I WOULD LIKE TO ELABORATE A LITTLE ON THAT. |
| 03:15:16 |
|
18th CENTURY WALL OF WOMEN, WHEN HE FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU AND BECAME HIS WIFE, TRUST ME, HE DID HIS... |
| 03:15:34 |
|
THE MOTHER OF SARA LEE ROTH. |
| 03:15:36 |
|
AND WHEREVER YELLOW ROSES WERE HE'D FIND THEM AND I'D GET THEM, NOT ONCE A DAYS, THREE TIMES A DAY... |
| 03:15:57 |
|
LET'S GO BACK A LITTLE BEFORE WE GET TO HIM. LET'S GO BACK TO THE TIME WHEN YOU WENT TO ENGLAND. ... |
| 03:16:07 |
|
BECAUSE I WAS WORKING WITH PERRY HENCE ILL FROM THE HARDER THEY COME FAME AND HE HAD AT THE TIME THE... |
| 03:17:08 |
|
FRESH OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. |
| 03:17:09 |
|
THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN NOT FRESH BUT, YEAH, ALMOST FRESH. |
| 03:17:21 |
|
YOU MENTIONED IT WAS ENGLAND YOU FACED CRIMINAL NATION AND FACED THEM HEAD ON. |
| 03:17:25 |
|
THAT MEAN PEOPLE IN THOSE DAYS, IT WAS THE LATE 1960s MIDDLE 1960s AND YOU COME FROM JAMAICA AND IT... |
| 03:21:18 |
|
I'M GOING TO ASSUME YOU ARE NOT ENAMORED WITH HIM. |
| 03:21:24 |
|
IT DID NOT OCCUR TO ME, AT 17 YEARS IT SEEMED CRAZY. EVERYTHING I HAD HEARD ABOUT MICHAEL MANLEY WAS... |
| 03:21:51 |
|
HOW DID YOU FEEL ABOUT THE PARTY HE HAD IT AT THAT TIME? |
| 03:21:56 |
|
I WAS BORN IN -- MY FATHER USED TO TAKE ME TO POLITICAL MEETINGS WHEN I WAS ABOUT EIGHT. WE LIVED... |
| 03:23:04 |
|
THAT STILL GIVE YOU LICENSE TO TELL THIS MAN, HIS SON THAT HE WAS AWFUL? |
| 03:23:14 |
|
IT WAS NOT EVEN TOLD. IT WAS AUTOMATIC. HE SOUNDED TERRIBLE. [LAUGHTER] IT NEVER OCCURRED TO ME TO... |
| 03:23:34 |
|
D.J. B C AT THE TIME WAS GOVERNMENT OPERATED. |
| 03:23:37 |
|
YES, YES, A LOT OF DISCRIMINATION BY THE GOVERNMENT AT THE TIME IN TERMS OF YET TO BE CAREFUL WHAT... |
| 03:23:47 |
|
WHICH GOVERNMENT WAS IN OFFICE? |
| 03:23:51 |
|
REMEMBER THE WHOLE IDEA WAS -] a@@u/N,N'ihi,N,xLedNTN3NLN!xgc WAS NOT AN ISSUE BUT WHAT WAS AN ISSUE... |
| 03:24:45 |
|
THE NAME BEVERLY ANDERSON. |
| 03:24:50 |
|
AS A BROADCASTER, IN THAT CLASS SITUATION IN JAMAICA, ESPECIALLY SOMEBODY WHO HAD AN AFRO AND WERE... |
| 03:25:30 |
|
AND HIS MOTHER WAS A MUCH REVERED SCULPTOR. HOW DID SHE RECEIVED YOU? |
| 03:25:35 |
|
THE FIRST THING, SHE SAID THERE HE GOES AGAIN. WHEN I HEARD SHE WENT -- WHEN I MET HER, I SAID THE... |
| 03:26:11 |
|
YOU ARE WEARING THE AFROCENTRIC CLOTHES BEFORE YOU KNEW HIM. |
| 03:26:16 |
|
YES, AND THEY STEPPED IT UP AFTER. NOT TRYING TO REASON, IT WAS JUST A PROCESS. HE DID NOT OCCUR TO... |
| 03:26:26 |
|
I REMEMBER SEEING PICTURES REMINISCENT OF LINESS AMMAN, WHEN THE MANDELA. |
| 03:26:34 |
|
YES. WINNING MANDELA CAME TO JAMAICA IN THE '70S. SO MANY YOUNG WOMEN WERE WEARING HALF ROSE. BAJIS... |
| 03:26:50 |
|
WHEN YOUR MOTHER FINALLY MET THIS OLDER MAN, HOW DID SHE RECEIVE HIM? |
| 03:26:56 |
|
I THINK THE FIRST THING SHE WANTED TO MAKE SURE -- SHE WAS NOT IMPRESSED SO SHE WENT OUT OF HER WAY... |
| 03:27:42 |
|
WAS THE WEDDING LAVISH? |
| 03:27:43 |
|
WE HAVE A LOT OF THINKING WITH THE WEDDING BECAUSE AT THE TIME IT WAS LIKE CAMELOT IN JAMAICA SO WE... |
| 03:28:24 |
|
THAT IS THE BEST PART. |
| 03:28:26 |
|
I'M GIVING YOU THAT IT DEFIES COMMON A MATTER WHAT HAPPENS HAVE A GREAT HONEYMOON. I HAD A GREAT HONEYMOON.... |
| 03:28:32 |
|
I KNOW EVERYBODY IS GOING TO BUY THE BOOK BUT SHE WENT SKINNY DIPPING. |
| 03:28:39 |
|
I PUT THAT IN THE BOOK? |
| 03:28:43 |
|
YES. |
| 03:28:44 |
|
ON A PRIVATE KEY AND THAT IS SOMETHING I RECOMMEND, BY THE WAY. |
| 03:28:52 |
|
THE WATER IS WARM, WHY NOT? SO YOU BECAME FIRST LADY AND HE MOVED INTO JAMAICA HOUSE. |
| 03:28:56 |
|
HE THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO ESTABLISH THE HOUSE AS THE RESIDENTS OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND I SHOULD... |
| 03:29:38 |
|
THAT IS BOLD. I CAN'T EVEN FATHOM MICHELLE OBAMA BUILDING A SCHOOL ON THE WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY. SO... |
| 03:29:48 |
|
AT THE TIME IT WAS A LITTLE ODD BUT PEOPLE GOT A COUSIN TO A. IT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME, COMING FROM... |
| 03:30:01 |
|
THE SCHOOL WAS OPENED TO THE PUBLIC? |
| 03:30:04 |
|
WE CONCENTRATED ON OUR OWN AREAS AND A BALANCE OF PEOPLE SO IT WAS A SCHOOL FOR POOR CHILDREN, IT... |
| 03:31:33 |
|
AND SOME OF THE THINGS YOU FOUGHT FOR WERE EQUAL RIGHTS? |
| 03:31:39 |
|
A LOT OF SOCIAL LEGISLATION. THE ONES THAT I AM PARTICULARLY PROUD OF BEING INVOLVED IN WITH OTHER... |
| 03:32:16 |
|
HOW DID THAT WORK? HE PROPOSED THAT THE PARLIAMENT PARLIAMENT. |
| 03:32:21 |
|
WE STRUGGLED FOR IT. WE WENT TO THE GRASSROOTS IN THE FIRST THING WE HAD TO DO WAS CONVINCE THEM THAT... |
| 03:33:02 |
|
YOUR HUSBAND WAS IN SOLIDARITY? |
| 03:33:04 |
|
HE WAS INTERESTING BECAUSE HE NEVER REALLY INTERFERED WITH ME LIKE THAT. SOMETIMES I STILL WONDER... |
| 03:34:23 |
|
WELL, I WANT TO HEAR THE TRUTH ABOUT FIDEL CASTRO WHEN YOU MET HIM. |
| 03:34:30 |
|
YOU WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH? WHICH COUNTRY M.I.A. IN? [LAUGHTER] WELL, AT FIRST WHEN I MET HIM, THE... |
| 03:36:55 |
|
YOU WERE THERE LONG? |
| 03:36:57 |
|
SOMETIMES I WOULD LEAD THE DELEGATION ALONG. SOMETIMES I WOULD GO WITH MICHAEL BECAUSE IN THE WOMEN'S... |
| 03:37:14 |
|
I WAS FASCINATED BY YOUR MEETING WITH ERIC WILLIAMS. |
| 03:37:18 |
|
I AM CURIOUS, WHY ARE YOU SINGLING HIM OUT? |
| 03:37:22 |
|
I FOUND HIM A FASCINATING MAN AND THE FACT YOU BONDED WITH ERIC AND HIS DAUGHTER. |
| 03:37:30 |
|
THE NEWSPAPERS WENT CRAZY. JUST BEFORE I HEAD BATTAT SCHUCK, SO I COULD STILL WEAR A BIKINI, YOU CAN... |
| 03:39:21 |
|
I LOVE THE FACT WHEN YOU AND YOU WERE TRAVELING, THE STORE YOU SAID ABOUT WAVING. |
| 03:39:28 |
|
DURING THE CARNIVAL CLOUDS. I AM SAYING, PRIME MINISTER WHY AIRY NOW WAVING? IT IS YOU THEY ARE WAVING... |
| 03:39:54 |
|
THE BOOK IS FULL OF FASCINATING STORIES AND THERE IS SOMETHING THAT I JUMPED OVER THAT YOU HAVE TO... |
| 03:40:10 |
|
LET ME JUST TELL YOU, THE BOOK IS NOT ONLY ABOUT ME MEETING MICHAEL. IT IS A WELL ROUNDED BUCK. |
| 03:40:24 |
|
YOU ARE SIDESTEPPING. |
| 03:40:25 |
|
THERE IS A LOT OF POLITICS IN THE BOOK. IT IS AN EASY READ AND I DID IT DELIBERATELY. IN FOUR HOURS... |
| 03:40:53 |
|
IT IS A FUNNY, FUNNY BOOK. |
| 03:40:54 |
|
I AM A KHAMMANY HATER BUT LET ME TELL YOU YOU CAN SURVIVE. WOMEN IN PARTICULAR, IT IS AMAZING HOW... |
| 03:43:13 |
|
ISN'T THAT INTERESTING STORY THAT HE WANTED TO HEAR? OF COURSE. |
| 03:43:22 |
|
A CRITICAL STORY. THAT IS BALD. |
| 03:43:24 |
|
JUST THAT ACTION ALONE SHOULD KEEP YOU ON THE RUNWAY REALLY. |
| 03:43:29 |
|
I GUESS I AM TOLD. TO SEVAREID I HAVE TO BE BOLD. |
| 03:43:34 |
|
SO, HOW LONG DID YOU STAY AT JBC? |
| 03:43:38 |
|
I WAS AT JBC FOR FIVE OR SIX YEARS BUT ALON FIBERS SIX YEARS BECAUSE WE DID EVERYTHING. YOU REALIZE... |
| 03:43:52 |
|
THAT IS TRUE. WHEN DID THE CHILDREN COME? |
| 03:43:57 |
|
NATASCHA CAME IN 74 AND THAT WAS PLANNED, BECAUSE THE CONVERSATION I HAD WITH MY GOAL IS TO HAVE THESE... |
| 03:47:13 |
|
I AM A THOUSAND MORE QUESTIONS BUT I AM GETTING A SIGNAL THAT I HAVE TO YIELD TO WALLET YOU, WHO I... |
| 03:48:20 |
|
I HAD TO LEARN TO REMAIN CENTERED BECAUSE EVERY DAY YOU WOKE UP IT WAS ANOTHER PROBLEM. AND THEY DID... |
| 03:50:27 |
|
HELL LE, MY NAME IS SOPHIA, I'M JAMAICAN BY BIRTH AND BEEN IN THE U.S. 21 YEAR AND CAME HERE AS A... |
| 03:50:45 |
|
ROSIE. AND I SAW YOUR BOOK IN THE SUNDAY GLEANER AND I'M HAPPY YOU ARE HEAR AND PLAN ON BUYING THE... |
| 03:51:35 |
|
HOW MUCH TIME DO I HAVE? 0, THIS IS A BIGGIE. LET ME JUST SAY A COUPLE OF THINGS ABOUT THAT. THE... |
| 03:55:05 |
|
YOU WORKED HARD AT EMPOWERING WOMEN. WHY DID JAMAICA REJECT THE FEMALE PRIME MINISTER? |
| 03:55:11 |
|
THEY REJECTED HER? SHE BECAME PRIME MINISTER. |
| 03:55:14 |
|
NO, THEY DIDN'T VOTE HER IN. |
| 03:55:15 |
|
THE VOTE. THE VOTE. BUT LOOK HOW CLOSE SHE CAME. THAT IS A MIRACLE IN JAMAICA. 3,000 VOTES SEPARATED... |
| 03:56:14 |
|
EVEN HER LEADERSHIP IS BEING CONTEST NOUD. |
| 03:56:17 |
|
HER LEADERSHIP IS CONTESTED BECAUSE ISN'T IT IRONIC THE PEOPLE'S NATIONAL PARTY WHO FROM THE BEGINNING,... |
| 03:57:24 |
|
I WANTED TO THERAPY, MS. BEVERLY, FOR SHARING YOUR STORY, MY PARENTS -- WHOLE FAMILY LEFT JAMAICA... |
| 03:58:10 |
|
THE BECAUSE AS -- I HAD A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH MANY OF THE MUSICIANS, REALLY CLOSE. AND I WAS ABLE... |
| 04:00:05 |
|
IN ADDITION TO REGGAE MUSIC YOU HOSTED MARVIN GAYE, ROBERTA FLAK. |
| 04:00:10 |
|
NUMBER OF PEOPLE. NUMBER OF PEOPLE. MARVIN WAS SO FINE! [LAUGHTER]. |
| 04:00:20 |
|
WE ALSO HOSTED MUHAMMAD ALI. WHO JUST TOTALLY SURPRISED ME WITH HOW SHY HE WAS. YOU KNOW, HOW HE SURVIVED... |
| 04:00:53 |
|
AND I KNOW I MENTIONED ERIC WILLIAMS AND FIDEL CASTRO BUT HAVE TO MENTION JIMMIE CARTER AND CORETTA... |
| 04:01:01 |
|
WHEN I FIRST MET JIMMY CARTER WHEN HE WAS GOVERNOR AND WE WERE TRYING TO OPEN UP GET AIR JAMAICA INTO... |
| 04:02:04 |
|

| 04:02:07 |
|

| 04:02:15 |
|
AND IN ADDITION TO WORDS THERE ARE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES IN THE BOOK. SO, IT IS WORTH SEEING. |
| 04:02:22 |
|
NANCY WILSON. WE HAD A MOTHER-DAUGHTER FASHION SHOW IN JAMAICA AND NANCY AND HER DAUGHTER MODELED... |
| 04:02:30 |
|
HER WEDDING PICTURE. |
| 04:02:32 |
|
ANOTHER DRAMA, WHY DID SHE HAVE TO GET MARRIED IN THAT! |
| 04:02:36 |
|
REALLY? WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. |
| 04:02:39 |
|
PEOPLE WANTED A TRADITIONAL VEIL AND WHATEVER. AND I CHOSE LIKE -- LIKE A TRIANGULAR CLOTH THING.... |
| 04:02:53 |

$20 AND $30 AT A TIME, OKAY? INTO THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE BUT I WANT TO SAYING SOMETHING I'M NOT TALKING... |
| 04:33:14 |
|
SO ESSENTIALLY HIS CIVIL RIGHTS AGENDA WAS HIS SOCIAL NETWORK. |
| 04:33:18 |
|
WELL, I THINK IT WAS DEFINITELY A PART OF HELPING HIM ADVANCE. I MEAN, BUT AS IT IS FOR EVERYONE,... |
| 04:33:24 |
|
DR. RIDLEY LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PLAN NATION -- PLANTATION FOR MAIN. NOW -- FOR A MINUTE. HELP US... |
| 04:33:50 |
|
THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION. THERE IS YOU A NEW FIELD THAT IS EMERGING CALLED COGNITIVE SYMBIOTICS.... |
| 04:34:35 |
|
BUT IT WAS VERY, VERY INTERESTING, LAST WEEK ON CNN, ONE OF THE -- ONE OF CHANCE, I DON'T KNOW IF... |
| 04:34:59 |
|
THIS WAS A CONTINUAL THEME. SO, I MEAN, WHITE FOLKS DON'T WANT TO YOU FEEL SO GOOD ABOUT THIS, YOU... |
| 04:37:17 |
|
I WANT TO -- OKAY. GIVE THE BROTHER A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THAT. [APPLAUSE]. |
| 04:37:23 |
|
KELLY I WANT TO -- |
| 04:37:25 |
|
I HAVE TO SAY QUICKLY, YOU KNOW, I DON'T LIKE THE WHEN I GET GENERALIZED AND I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN... |
| 04:37:41 |
|
YEAH. BUT BY AND LARGE, WE CAN'T USE THE EXCEPTION THAT'S RULE, EITHER. WE PRETTY MUCH KNOW WHO WE'RE... |
| 04:37:57 |
|
WE CLEARLY KNOW THAT ALL WHITE FOLK AREN'T RACIST BUT THEY ARE INDIFFER TO RACISM, OKAY, THEY WON'T... |
| 04:38:09 |
|
I THINK THAT IS -- I THINK THAT STATEMENT IS A TAD DIFFERENT THAN HIS. |
| 04:38:12 |
|
OKAY. |
| 04:38:14 |
|
YOU WANT -- NUANCED PERHAPS BUT DIFFERENT. |
| 04:38:16 |
|
I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THE POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE OF THE HIP-HOP GENERATION, BECAUSE I REALLY THINK... |
| 04:39:56 |
|
WELL, THEY CAN HELP -- THEY -- IT IS LIKELY THEY'LL HELP DECIDE THIS ELECTION. AND NOT NECESSARILY... |
| 04:44:15 |
|
AN EXCELLENT SEGUE TO A QUESTION. [APPLAUSE]. |
| 04:44:19 |
|
I WANTED TO ASK DR. RID LIMIT I THINK E THAT IOWA WAS SORT OF A RED HERRING, CERTAINLY WAS A FLASHPOINT.... |
| 04:45:12 |
|
I'M SORRY. AND I'M IN THE TRYING TO STEP ON YOUR THUNDER BUT I HAVE TO SAY, THOSE NUMBERS ALSO SPLIT... |
| 04:45:22 |
|
AND YOU'RE ACCURATE TO SOME DEGREE, YOU ARE ACCURATE. |
| 04:45:26 |
|
YOU COULD NOT -- AVOID THE POTOMAC PRIMARIES. |
| 04:45:28 |
|
WELL -- |
| 04:45:30 |
|
HEY. |
| 04:45:32 |
|
AND THAT'S REAL. THAT'S REAL. OKAY. SO IN TERMS OF POLITICAL BEHAVIORS, DR. RIDLEY, WHY DO YOU THINK... |
| 04:45:47 |
|
[INAUDIBLE]. |
| 04:45:51 |
|
OLDER VOTERS OR OLDER POOR WHITE VOTERS, WHY DO YOU THINK THEY ARE HAVING A PROBLEM EMBRACING BARAK'S... |
| 04:46:02 |
|
WELL, IN TERMS OF PEOPLE I'VE TALKED WITH, PENNSYLVANIA, AND THE OLDER POPULATION, THEY JUST HAVE... |
| 04:47:03 |
|
IT HAS BEEN A MINUTE SINCE BLACK AMERICA HAD A CURE WHITEY MOMENT AND CERTAINLY REVEREND WRIGHT TOOK... |
| 04:47:18 |
|
ABSOLUTELY. |
| 04:47:20 |
|
THAT CREATED THE REAGAN REVOLUTION AND LET'S BE TRUTHFUL ABOUT THAT. I MEAN, WHAT REVEREND WRIGHT ... |
| 04:47:26 |
|
EXACTLY. |
| 04:47:28 |
|
WE UNDERSTAND THAT [APPLAUSE]. : TO UNDERSTAND THE EGYPTIAN MYSTERIES SYSTEMS OR THE EGYPTIAN THEOLOGICAL... |
| 04:49:07 |
|
THAT IS CORRECT, I AGREE WITH YOU THERE. MANY PEOPLE WANT TO CITE AN REECE SITE THE LAST FOUR MINUTES... |
| 04:50:41 |
|
I CAN ANSWER THAT IS IT YOU WERE TO ASK MEMBERS OF THE HIP-HOP GENERATION YOU WOULD GET 5000 DIFFERENT... |
| 04:51:26 |
|
HOW ABOUT THE PRISON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX? THE DOES GET REAL CLE RESPONSES? |
| 04:51:31 |
|
NOT THAT I RECALL BECAUSE THE ONES WHO WERE THE TOP FOUR WERE THE WAR IN IRAQ, HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION... |
| 04:51:43 |
|
DR. RIDLEY, LET'S TALK ABOUT SIBILATION AND IN PARTICULAR TALK ABOUT HOW THE PRISON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX... |
| 04:52:11 |
|
I THINK THAT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN NEW YORK IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE, WHERE THE THING TO DO NOW IN TERMS... |
| 04:54:24 |
|
DO YOU WANT TO REACT TO THAT 41 TO PASS? |
| 04:54:28 |
|
I'M SORRY WHAT WAS THAT? |
| 04:54:31 |
|
IT APPEARS THAT THE PRESENT INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, THE HIGH SCHOOLS ARE NOW BEING PETERS FOR THE PRESENT... |
| 04:54:43 |
|
WELL, OF COURSE, THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE IN TERMS OF THE CIRCULAR, THE PRISON RATES AND THE NUMBERS... |
| 04:55:25 |
|
LET ME REFRAIN THE QUESTION BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN. THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF... |
| 04:56:02 |
|
JOB HOPPING. |
| 04:56:03 |
|
OR PICKING UP A PAYCHECK, SO WE REALLY HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT SYSTEM IS BROKE. DO WE CONTINUE TO... |
| 04:56:15 |
|
NOW YOU BRING UP ONE OF THE CONSERVATIVE ISSUES OF CHOICE AND CHARTER SCHOOLS AND ALL THOSE OTHER... |
| 04:56:20 |
|
I THINK CHOICE IS DIFFERENT FROM CHARTER SCHOOLS. CHOICE IS GIVING SOMEBODY A CHECK AND LET THEM EDUCATE... |
| 04:56:39 |
|
IS NOT EXACTLY SOMETHING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS WAVING A BANNER FOR. |
| 04:56:44 |
|
SOMETIMES WE NEED TO MOVE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OFF OF OUR PLATFORM THAT IS 50 YEARS OLD. |
| 04:56:49 |
|
NO DISAGREEMENT ON THAT. |
| 04:56:51 |
|
HAD ENDED THE DAY THE POLITICS NEEDS TO LOOK DIFFERENT. THAT IS WHAT THE TOPIC OF THIS PANEL IS, WHERE... |
| 04:57:58 |
|
ABSOLUTELY, NO AND I HAVE SAID IT. I HAVE TO SAY WHEN I WAS WRITING, I WAS WORKING ON THIS BOOK --... |
| 04:58:50 |
|
I LIKE DR. RIDLEY, I LIKE HIS RESPONSE. DR. RIDLEY COME AHADI THINK THE NEW CIVIL-RIGHTS GENERATIONAL... |
| 04:59:01 |
|
I REALLY THINK THAT ONE OF THE FAILURES OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT WAS IN FACT IT WAS MYTHOLOGICAL... |
| 05:00:12 |
|
LET ME ASK YOU ON A BEHAVIORAL TIP. YOU SAY WE HAVE TO BE COURAGEOUS AND TERMS OF RIDDING OURSELVES... |
| 05:00:22 |
|
EVERYBODY IS AFRAID. IT IS NORMAL TO BE SCARED, LET'S FACE IT BUT WE CAN'T LET THAT FEAR OVERCOME US.... |
| 05:00:34 |
|
THEY CALL THE HIP-HOP GENERATION ANGRY. |
| 05:00:36 |
|
WE SHOULD BE ANGRY. ANYBODY WHO IS NOT ANGRY IS CRAZY. [APPLAUSE] |
| 05:00:45 |
|
OKAY, SO THEN HOW DO WE USE OUR ANCHOR TO CONSTRUCTIVELY MOVE THEOW LIBERATED AFRICANS MAINTAINED... |
| 05:01:56 |
|
KELI. YOU I HAVE LINES HAVE YOU INITIALLY RESEARCH YOUR BOOK IN TERMS OF ASKING YOUNG PEOPLE CERTAIN... |
| 05:02:28 |
|
THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION AND I'M GLAD THAT YOU WORDED IT THE WAY YOU DID. I HAVE ACTUALLY THAT YOU... |
| 05:02:51 |
|
BEYOND POLICE SHOOTING? |
| 05:02:53 |
|
YOU ARE CORRECT AND WHAT I WAS SPECIFICALLY GOING TO SAY, I THINK IT IS CERTAIN POINT PEOPLE ARE GOING... |
| 05:04:36 |
|
WE ARE NOW GETTING READY TO GO INTO OUR QUESTION AND ANSWER PERIOD. IF YOU TAKE A MOMENT TO LINE UP... |
| 05:05:07 |
|
KATE CAMPBELL. I WAS LISTENING TO A RADIO PROGRAM JUST THIS PAST WEEK IN WASHINGTON D.C., ABOUT THE... |
| 05:06:19 |
|
DR. RIDLEY. |
| 05:06:21 |
|
THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION. THE POINT IS, THIS IS THE NEW DYNAMIC, THE ELLIPTIC -- MANIPULATION... |
| 05:07:45 |
|
DR. RIDLEY, CAN YOU OFFER US SOME BOOKS, WRITERS, AUTHORS THAT WE IN THIS AUDIENCE COULD YOU KNOW... |
| 05:07:56 |
|
THE NUMBER ONE BOOK I THINK IS THE ONE I HAVE WRITTEN. [LAUGHTER] [APPLAUSE] |
| 05:08:02 |
|
THAT'S RIGHT, THAT IS WHY HE IS HERE. |
| 05:08:10 |
|
IT IS CALLED THE GOLDEN APPLE, CHANGING THE STRUCTURE OF CIVILIZATION. THE ONE BEFORE THAT IS CALLED,... |
| 05:10:14 |
|
LET ME RESPOND TO THAT QUESTION BECAUSE I HAVE WRITTEN A COUPLE OF BOOKS DEALING WITH POST CIVIL RIGHTS... |
| 05:12:13 |
|
POST RACIAL, I AM SURE YOU HAVE READ THIS BEFORE WHERE SOMEONE WILL SAY I DON'T LOOK AT BARACK OBAMA... |
| 05:12:25 |
|
THAT IS AN OUTWARD DENIAL THAT YOU REALLY DON'T WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE EMBRACING SOMETHING... |
| 05:12:49 |
|
I REALLY DON'T BELIEVE IN POST RACIAL SCENARIO. THERE IS REALLY NO SUCH THING. YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE... |
| 05:13:21 |
|
MY QUESTION SAYS, "WHEN A NEW ORDER CONTINUUM WHEN BARACK A, WILL BE A PART OR WILL HE BE PART OF... |
| 05:13:48 |
|
WE HAVE TWO MINUTES. I WILL LET YOU TAKE ONE MINUTE EACH. KELI, YOU FIRST. |
| 05:13:55 |
|
HAS BARACK OBAMA PART OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER AND IF YES WHAT IS THE REPRESENT? |
| 05:14:02 |
|
LUCK -- LOOK, THERE REMAINS TO BE SEEN FOR GOEAS TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE WANTS HIS CANDIDACY... |
| 05:16:37 |
|
PROFESSOR SAMAD MENTION THERE IS ANOTHER PANEL COMING UP, AND IT IS ON THE BICENTENNIAL OF THE ABOLITION... |
| 05:17:25 |
|
HELLO, HOW ARE YOU DOING TODAY? |
| 05:17:28 |
|
I AM GOOD. |
| 05:17:31 |
|
I AGREE COMPLETELY WITH WHAT THE DOCTOR COME CONCERNING SYMBOLISM, SYMBOLISM PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE IN... |
| 05:18:36 |
|
WELL, I WOULD LIKE TO OF ASKED WHAT SORT OF STRATEGY DO THEY PROPOSE A YOUNG BLACK AMERICANS OR YOUNG... |
| 05:20:13 |
|
I KNOW YOU GUYS -- I HAVE THE NEW BOOK AND THIS IS REALLY -- I AM FEELING GOOD |
| 05:20:27 |
|
WHAT IS YOUR BOOK ABOUT? |
| 05:20:31 |
|
[INAUDIBLE] |
| 05:20:36 |
|
IS IT A TRUE STORY FICTION? |
| 05:20:38 |
|
IT IS A CHILDREN'S BOOK. IT IS A REALLY GOOD CHILDREN'S BOOK. IT HELPS TO EDUCATE AND LEARN AND IT... |
| 05:20:55 |
|
THANK YOU FOR CALLING IN. ABILENE TEXAS, GOOD AFTERNOON. |
| 05:21:00 |
|
I WAS WATCHING THE PANEL ALSO AND I PRETTY MUCH ECHO THE SENTIMENTS OF THE PANELIST EXCEPT I JUST... |
| 05:21:56 |
|
THANK YOU FOR CALLING IN. YOU ARE WATCHING LIVE COVERAGE OF THE HARLEM BOOK FAIR, 130 KEN STREET,... |
| 05:22:26 |
|
I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT ON THE PANELS, THEY DID NOT SEEM TO REALIZE THAT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WHITE,... |
| 05:23:08 |
|
PRIVILEGED EMIGRANTS? |
| 05:23:11 |
|
THEY ARE LIKE THE PILGRIMS. ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO CAME OVER, THEY HAVE BEEN HERE SO MANY YEARS AND... |
| 05:23:55 |
|
CANTON DE JURE SICK, WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE STATE OF CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE U.S. TODAY? |
| 05:24:02 |
|
WOW, THAT WAS VERY INTERESTING WITH THAT LAST CALLER. WHITE AMERICANS NEED TO YOU AS MUCH AS BLACK... |
| 05:25:08 |
|
THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY CALL. FIRST OF ALL, I AM A 57-YEAR-OLD WHITE WOMAN AND I WANT TO APOLOGIZE... |
| 05:26:28 |
|
LET'S LEAVE IT THERE. THANKS FOR CALLING IN THIS AFTERNOON. TEXAS, COLLEEN. YOU ARE ON THE AIR. |
| 05:26:35 |
|
THANK YOU. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE STATE OF TEXAS AND HERE IN COLLEEN THEY HAVE SOMETHING CALLED ALTERNATIVE... |
| 05:27:30 |
|
CALLER, ITAI THAT INTO THE LAST PANEL. HOW DOES THAT TIE INTO THE STATE OF CIVIL RIGHTS? |
| 05:27:37 |
|
I BELIEVE WE ARE GOING BACKWARDS. WE ARE GOING TO IT PLACE WHERE, IF WE GET THEM WHILE THEY ARE YOUNG... |
| 05:27:58 |
|
AS HE COULD SEE FROM A FEW MINUTES AGO, THE SCHOMBURG CENTER, LANGSTON HUGHES AUDITORIUM AND IT IS... |
| 05:28:39 |
|
I WAS CALLING, I WANTED TO LANCER SOMEONE IN THE AUDIENCE U.S. FOR A FURTHER READING. I WAS FASCINATED... |
| 05:29:07 |
|
THANK YOU CALLER. ADRIEN MICHIGAN, GOOD AFTERNOON. |
| 05:29:11 |

|
CALLER, THANK YOU. YOU ARE LOOKING AT A LIVE PICTURE OF 130 THIS STREET IN HARLEM BETWEEN FIFTH AND... |
| 05:31:30 |

I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT HOW NOT ONLY YOUNG BLACK MEN, BLACK MEN AS WELL AS WHITE, WHITE MEN ARE... |
| 05:32:32 |
|
WE HAVE TO LEAVE IT THERE. THE 200 ANNIVERSARY OF THE ABOLITION OF THE TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE... |
| 05:33:42 |
|
THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND GOOD AFTERNOON TO YOU ALL. BEFORE I GO ANY FURTHER, JUST SOME PEOPLE HAVE... |

WELL, I AM VERY GLAD TO BE HERE AND IT IS QUITE EXTRAORDINARY TO SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING BOTH INSIDE... |
| 05:48:47 |

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW HOT IT IS HERE TODAY. I KNOW WHAT A LOT OF YOU ARE HERE, BECAUSE IT IS COOLER... |
| 05:54:40 |

ACTIVITY AND ONE OF THE THINGS I'M WORKING ON NOW FOR SEVERAL THOUSAND OF THESE PEOPLE, BRITISH AUTHORITIES... |

ONE OF THE PLACES THAT MY WORK AND SYLVIA OUNCE CAN ADD SOMETHING TO HOW WE CONSIDER THE SLAVE TRADE... |
| 06:11:22 |
|
CAME OUT, ATTENTION OFTEN FOCUSED ON THE BROAD EXPERIENCE OF SLAVERY OVER MANY CENTURIES AND THE ... |
| 06:14:00 |
|
I AM THE NIGHT CREW HERE I AM AT THE END. WHAT I AM CALLING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT IS THE STORY OF THE... |
| 06:14:25 |
|
SHIP, THE MATILDA, A RIDE IN |
| 06:14:31 |
|
ALABAMA IN JULY OF 1860. THAT IS 52 YEARS AFTER THE OFFICIAL OPPOSITION OF SLAVE TRADE TO THIS COUNTRY... |
| 06:15:26 |
|
PERSON WHO ORGANIZED THE TRIP. THE MAN SAID "I'M GOING TO BRING A SHIP FULL OF KNICKERS UNDER THE... |
| 06:15:53 |
|
BOASTED ABOUT THAT. WE HAVE THE NARRATIVE OF THE SLAVE SHIP CAPTAIN, THE MEN WHO SAILED THE MATILDA... |
| 06:16:45 |
|
THAT THEY LOOK LIKE. THEIR RELATIONS WITH AFRICAN AMERICANS AND SLAVES ON THE SAME PLANTATION, AND... |
| 06:17:07 |
|
THERE IS ONE THING WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THE LAST SURVIVOR WAS INTERVIEWED AND SHE WAS 110... |
| 06:17:29 |
|
THE WALK TO THE SEA, THE PASSAGE THE ENSLAVEMENT THE FREEDOM. |
| 06:17:36 |
|
WE HAVE PICTURES, PHOTOGRAPHS AND DRAWINGS OF THE LAST SURVIVORS AND MOST EXTRAORDINARY OF ALL, I... |
| 06:18:17 |
|
WE LEARNED DIRECTLY FROM THEM WHAT IT WAS LIKE. WHAT THE EXPERIENCE WAS LIKE. WHAT SHOT THEM. WHAT... |
| 06:18:26 |
|
WHAT THEIR FEELINGS ABOUT THEIR CAPTURE. THE VISION OF AFRICA. AGAIN, THEIR RELATIONS WITH AFRICAN... |
| 06:18:59 |
|
WHY THEY WERE UNSLAVE AND WE |
| 06:19:04 |
|
ALSO SEE THE ONES THEY STOPPED TO TRANSFORM. THEY ARRIVED IN 1860 WHICH MEANS IN 1865 THEY BECAME ... |
| 06:19:59 |
|
FAMILIES AND THEY ALSO ADAPTED OTHER THINGS. ONE THING ALSO THAT I FOUND |
| 06:20:05 |
|
VERY INTERESTING IN THAT STORY IS THE EXPERIENCE OF THE SECOND GENERATION. SOME OF THEM ENTERED MARRIAGE... |
| 06:22:41 |
|
THEY WERE INTERVIEWED, THEY ASKED THAT'S THEY USE THEIR AFRICAN NAMES AND THEY SAID IF OUR STORY --... |
| 06:23:04 |
|
THAT COULD NEVER BE BROKEN AND FROM STUDIES WE NOW THAT THIS LINK IN AFRICA WAS NOT BROKEN, EITHER,... |
| 06:24:35 |
|
I LOOK AT ISSUES OF THE AGE STRUCTURE. |
| 06:24:40 |
|
THE AGE HIERARCHY, THE MATURITY, THE WAY OCCUPIED THE LAND, THE RELATIONS WITH THEIR IN-LAWS, ISSUES... |
| 06:26:03 |
|
FOR THE CITY TO GIVE THEM A TEACHER THAT WAS FRESH OUT OF SLAVERY AND THEY PUT THEIR CHILDREN THERE.... |
| 06:26:35 |
|
A CASE. THERE IS NOTHING MORE AMERICAN THAN SUING. [LAUGHING] AT THE SAME TIME AS THEY WERE AFRICAN,... |
| 06:26:43 |
|
AT THE SAME TIME AS THEY WERE AFRICAN, AND THEY WANTED TO REMAIN AFRICAN, THEY STARTED TO BECOME THESE... |
| 06:27:07 |
|
BUT THEY TRANSCENDED IN A WAY THAT CAN BE READ ABOUT THAT. WHAT I FOUND REALLY EXTRAORDINARY IN THEIR... |
| 06:28:00 |
|
A STORY OF ORDINARY PEOPLE, |
| 06:28:04 |
|
BUT FOR ME IT IS A STORY OF HEROES. WHAT IS REMARKABLE IS THAT THEY CAUGHT AT AFRICAN TOWN TODAY... |
| 06:29:19 |
|
THIS IS NOT ANCIENT HISTORY. I JUST WANT TO SHOW YOU, THIS |
| 06:29:25 |
|
IS MR. LEWIS RIGHT THERE. AND THOSE LITTLE GIRLS ARE HIS GREAT BRAND DAUGHTERS, MARY AND MARTHA. ... |
| 06:30:41 |
|
STORY OF THE SLAVE TRADE WITHOUT TELLING THE STORY OF THE HUMAN DIMENSIONS OF ITS, ESPECIALLY THE... |
| 06:31:16 |
|
IT AND GATHER INFORMATION ABOUT FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE SLAVE TRADE. THE SECOND IS THAT WE HERE... |
| 06:32:04 |
|
THE THIRD THING, OCTOBER 9 THROUGH 12, THE SCHOMBURG CENTER IS JOINING WITH THE NEW YORK UNIVERSITY... |
| 06:33:34 |
|
IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO COME TO THE MICROPHONE WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AND AS YOU ARE ASSEMBLING AT THE... |
| 06:33:44 |
|
QUESTIONS I WANTED TO ASK THE PANELISTS TO SPEAK TO BEFORE WE MOVE ON. THE MOST CRITICAL 1 I THINK... |
| 06:33:56 |
|
|
| 06:34:02 |
|
SLAVE TRADE THAT SYVLIENE MENTIONED. WHAT WAS THE VOLUME AND IDEA THINK IT KEPT GOING ON? I THINK... |
| 06:34:12 |
|
I THINK IT NUMBERS FOR THE WHOLE ILLEGAL SLAVE TRADE NOT INTO THE U.S. BUT THE REST OF THE HEMISPHERE.... |
| 06:35:22 |
|
SINGLE ONE OF THEM EXCEPT ONE, HERE IN NEW YORK IN 1862. |
| 06:35:29 |
|
HE WAS THE ONLY ONE. STILL, THE WEIGHT OF THE POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC WAY OF THE SLAVES ITSELF WAS... |
| 06:35:50 |
|
ENOUGH TO SUPPRESS THE POLITICAL SLAVE TRADE PRESS |
| 06:35:54 |
|
FOR A QUESTION OVER HERE? COULD YOU TALK ABOUT CULTURAL PRETENSIONS OF THE AFRICANS IN AFRICA TOWN,... |
| 06:35:58 |
|
COULD YOU TALK ABOUT CULTURAL PRETENSIONS OF THE AFRICANS IN AFRICA TOWN, SPECIFICALLY MUSICALLY OR... |
| 06:36:11 |
|
FOR THAT, IT'S A LITTLE DIFFICULT. THEY WERE ALL AT ONE POINT CHRISTIANS. WE KNEW FROM THE RESEARCH... |
| 06:36:40 |
|
DIFFERENT TYPES OF RELIGIONS THERE AND EVEN THOUGH THEY |
| 06:36:48 |
|
WERE ALL CHRISTIAN, I COULD SAY THAT THERE WERE SOME RETENTION. LOUIS, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN HIS DAUGHTER... |
| 06:37:45 |
|
THE ONLY OTHER COMMERCIAL THE AUTHORS' BOOKS ARE IN THE GIFT SHOPS AND THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE AFTER... |
| 06:37:57 |
|
MY PEOPLE ARE FROM ALABAMA SO THIS IS FASCINATING TO ME. I BUT FOR YOU EARLIER AND I COULD NOT FIND... |
| 06:38:17 |
|
OF THOSE YOUNG CHILDREN, IF THEY WERE CAPTURED IN THE TRADITIONAL MANNER OF THE SLAVES TRADERS WOULD... |
| 06:38:25 |
|
PEOPLE AND THE GENTLEMAN FROM RHODE ISLAND, I SAW YOUR FILM |
| 06:38:30 |
|
AND I WAS UP TILL ABOUT 3:00 IN THE MORNING FOLLOWING ITS |
| 06:38:33 |
|
BECAUSE IT WAS SO FASCINATING AND WANT TO THANK YOU AND EVERYONE FOR YOUR WORK. [APPLAUSE] |
| 06:38:44 |
|
EFFORT BUT TOM IS IN THE NORTH OF MOBILE. DOES A LITTLE AREA WHICH WAS CALLED PLATTE TOE. IT IS ON... |
| 06:38:55 |
|
IT IS ON A HILL. THAT IS WHERE AFRICA TOWN IS LOCATED. THE WAY THAT THE PEOPLE -- THEY WERE DIFFERENT... |
| 06:39:26 |
|
AND OTHERS WERE SENT TO THE COAST. OTHER PEOPLE, INCLUDING A YOUNG GIRL, SOME OF THEM WERE KIDNAPPED,... |
| 06:39:47 |
|
THEY WERE COMING FROM NIGERIA AND THEIR KIDNAPPED THERE. EVERY ONE HAD A STORY, REALLY. ONE WOMAN... |
| 06:40:22 |

|
YES, SIR? |

|
MY QUESTION ISN'T DIRECTLY RELATED TOO ANY OF YOUR TOPICS BUT KIND OF IN DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE PROFESSORS... |
| 06:43:38 |

|
JOSEPH PROJECT THAT IS GOING |

| 06:45:06 |
|
I'M BRENT TO LET THAT STAND SO WE CAN GET THESE LAST TWO QUESTIONS IN. YES? |
| 06:45:08 |
|
SO WE CAN GET THESE LAST TWO QUESTIONS IN. YES? GREETINGS TO THE PANEL AND I APPRECIATE YOU BEING... |
