the princeton of woodrow wilson does not exist today. you have students who are walking around their campus who are black, who are women, who want to possess princeton as their own but they can't seen as late comers. they can't be thought of as people who should be grateful that they're there. princeton has to tell a story of itself that includes them. as integral, and the united states has to tell a story of itself that includes all of its people as constituented. >> it doesn't end with slavery. i'm so glad you brought up woodrow wilson. this is a conversation not only had to be had with woodrow wilson, but race -- people who have been seen as heroes on the issue of race even. lbj and the language he used. the attacks against richard nixon in 1957 because he thought nixon was too far forward on the issue of race. we had george marshall who's long been a hero for basically saving -- doing what he did along with harry truman to save western europe from communism in the late 1940s and yet his views on race were repugnant in many respects.

curl bring them, essentially established the sat test a decadeater in the 1920's was a eugenicist from princeton. they created these tests not latinos ande that black people were inferior to white people, but alsoo prove that women were genetically intellectually inferior to men, that poor people were genetically intellectually and barrier to weahy people and soutrners -- i'm in, everyon, non-anglo-saxons were intellectually inferior to anglo-saxons. these tests became the evence they have been looking for, really, for hundreds of yes to prove that people of color and poor people and women were intellectually inferior. amy: so explain what the college board has recentlynnounced, that they are adding in environmenental context dashboad for all students taking the sat's. what does this mean? >> i'm try to figure that out. one thing i think many college board -- some of these institutions that have been under fire by not only antiracist, but even parents who don't want their children being in these high-stakes testing environments. i ththk they're figuring out new ways to essentially maintain the e

you were at princeton, at harvard now, were at princeton in the state of new jersey. you have watched as cory booker rose as mayor. clearly taking in many cases, mark lippert -- more progressive line, increasingly progressive as he has rose to power. your thoughts on his challenge to joe biden? as well as his record? dr. west: i thought brother cory booker was strong last night, trying to get people to see that brother biden not only lacks the kind of vision as well as the vitality to be trump -- beat trump. it is clear a milquetoast neoliberalism can never beat a high-energy neofascism of donald trump. but when you look at the concrete details of the record, and both have spotty records in a certain sense, but with in the pointing out way that biden's history has circumscribed where he is now in terms of his vision and now all of the flip-flopping, biden acting more progressive, certainly brother booker is more progressive in his rhetoric and actions in the senate, but both are still so tied to the permanent power, oligarchs and plutocrats. the oligarchs and plutocra

that later becomes princeton university. on march 22nd writes, fine day, played baseball. i'm beaten but can't catch or hit. he's not a great player. the following year the college faculty will ban baseball as being unbecoming of a gentleman. this is the earliest written reference we have to baseball. so already the game is on college campuses. already played by boys much older than children. these are older teenagers playing this game. a couple of other things to note in the early going of the game. we've got examples of 1850s from the new york game and massachusetts game. you can see in the new york game the diamond we're used to but massachusetts had a competitive rival game which was in the shape of a rectangle. these two battled for supremacy in the 19th century. it's the new york game with the popularity of new york press. their enthusiasm of the game, constant coverage of the game. eventually it's the new york game that's going to win out. of the things that we've just shown you, everything in here is original with the exception of this blowup of the illuminated man

the name of the book is "weber in america" with princeton university press and i really commend it. the author's name is escaping mt. ae t me at the moment but it's a very carefully researched, well-documented book and that's why i'd recommend it if you want to do weber. "what i saw in america." the other is called "sidelights." they were both written after his respective visits. and he also wrote essays and so forth about america. and then qutb wrote a series of articles published in a journal called "the america that i have seen." and it's not extensive, but it's significant, and then sprinkled throughout his work, he makes various references to america. he published a book right before he came here called "social justice in islam." and what's really interesting is it went through a number of revisions and if you look at the revisions, you see he works america into it, whereas before he hadn't been to america so there's no mention of it. then over time he introduces pieces of america which were largely critical in social justice. if you look at the different -- and i would recomme

a lot of you are familiar with things like the james madison center at princeton that was founded 20 something years ago. arizona state university has set up its own new school on economic thought and political thought that is independent of traditional departments. it now has a competitive curriculum with traditional departments. faculty are not happy about that, but the legislature said this is going to happen. another idea that has been floating around is somebody needs to step up and start a new university or to. we haven't seen something like that since brandeis, which was 70 years ago. finally, i won't say the craziest idea, but the one that is most remarkable -- not remarkable, but unconventional, and this is something the trump education department might pick up just to scare people and say, what is all this fixation with a bachelors degree? why don't we create some alternative way of certifying that someone is educated and capable, like we do for example with the cpa exam. so you can take alternative methods of education, online classes, study on your own. the kim kardashian
