838 00:49:40,310 --> 00:49:41,728 for human evil. 839 00:49:49,861 --> 00:49:51,738 opposition by political parties 840 00:49:51,863 --> 00:49:54,407 which might defeat or obstruct 841 00:49:54,532 --> 00:49:56,618 the policy of the Nazi Party. 842 00:49:56,743 --> 00:49:59,287 $4“ 843 00:50:05,293 --> 00:50:08,338 Hermann Wilhelm Goring, on the counts of the indictment 844 00:50:08,463 --> 00:50:09,923 which you have been convicted, 845 00:50:10,048 --> 00:50:13,009 the Tribunal sentences you to death by hanging. 846 00:50:15,386 --> 00:50:17,931 American progressives were in a panic. 847 00:50:19,641 --> 00:50:22,936 They realized that if future generations of Americans 848 00:50:23,061 --> 00:50:26,272 knew the intimate connection between progressivism 849 00:50:26,397 --> 00:50:29,108 and the Democratic Party on the one hand, 850 00:50:29,234 --> 00:50:31,736 and the fascists and Nazis on the other, 851 00:50:31,861 --> 00:50:34,447 they would be finished. 852 00:50:34,572 --> 00:50:38,284 And so, taking a page from Hitler himself, 853 00:50:38,409 --> 00:50:41,579 they settled upon the idea of a big lie. 854 00:50:41,704 --> 00:50:46,125 First, they would muddle the meaning of fascism itself. 855 00:50:46,251 --> 00:50:50,255 They would take the socialism out of National Socialism. 856 00:50:50,380 --> 00:50:54,425 Second, they would move fascism from the left-wing column, 857 00:50:54,551 --> 00:50:59,013 where it had always belonged, into the right-wing column. 858 00:50:59,138 --> 00:51:01,849 But we must not believe that big lie. 859 00:51:01,975 --> 00:51:05,186 The fascists and the Nazis were always on the left. 860 00:51:05,311 --> 00:51:08,022 They formed a mutual admiration society 861 00:51:08,147 --> 00:51:09,732 with the American left. 862 00:51:09,857 --> 00:51:12,068 Even worse, the most destructive 863 00:51:12,193 --> 00:51:15,405 and genocidal schemes of the fascists and Nazis 864 00:51:15,530 --> 00:51:18,199 were inspired by American progressives 865 00:51:18,324 --> 00:51:20,618 and the American Democratic Party. 866 00:51:20,743 --> 00:51:24,289 That is the crushing historical truth. 867 00:51:24,414 --> 00:51:28,543 Now we go from the left's big lie about fascism 868 00:51:28,668 --> 00:51:31,421 to its big lie about racism. 869 00:51:31,546 --> 00:51:34,173 Progressive Democrats typically blame racism 870 00:51:34,299 --> 00:51:36,884 on America, and on the founding, 871 00:51:37,010 --> 00:51:39,887 but were the founders to blame for the elaborate system 872 00:51:40,013 --> 00:51:42,515 of slave plantations? 873 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,227 Historian Allen Guelzo teaches at Gettysburg College 874 00:51:46,352 --> 00:51:49,063 and is the author of several award-winning books 875 00:51:49,188 --> 00:51:51,107 on the Civil War. 876 00:51:51,232 --> 00:51:52,984 If we speak of the founders as a whole, 877 00:51:53,109 --> 00:51:55,737 (would it be accurate to say that they believed A) 878 00:51:55,862 --> 00:51:59,198 slavery is on a path of extinction; 879 00:51:59,324 --> 00:52:02,952 (and B) that slavery is a... 880 00:52:03,077 --> 00:52:04,954 a regrettable thing, a bad thing? 881 00:52:05,079 --> 00:52:06,706 They were confident 882 00:52:06,831 --> 00:52:08,708 that slavery was going to disappear, 883 00:52:08,833 --> 00:52:10,376 because it is a contradiction 884 00:52:10,501 --> 00:52:13,254 - of our fundamental principles. - Are you saying 885 00:52:13,379 --> 00:52:17,008 that there really wasn't a... formal pro-slavery ideology 886 00:52:17,133 --> 00:52:19,010 at the time of the founding? 887 00:52:19,135 --> 00:52:22,221 There's no pro-slavery philosophy 888 00:52:22,347 --> 00:52:23,806 that works into the founding. 889 00:52:23,931 --> 00:52:26,059 The founders took specific measures 890 00:52:26,184 --> 00:52:27,685 to restrict slavery. 891 00:52:27,810 --> 00:52:30,313 They outlawed the slave trade, 892 00:52:30,438 --> 00:52:33,941 they prohibited slavery in the vast Northwest Territories, 893 00:52:34,067 --> 00:52:35,943 under the Northwest Ordinance, 894 00:52:36,069 --> 00:52:39,030 and they mounted such a strong critique of slavery 895 00:52:39,155 --> 00:52:41,366 that by the end of the founding era, 896 00:52:41,491 --> 00:52:43,451 slavery went from being a national 897 00:52:43,576 --> 00:52:45,453 to a regional institution. 898 00:52:45,578 --> 00:52:46,871 Then this happened. 899 00:52:46,996 --> 00:52:48,539 All over the world, the impact 900 00:52:48,665 --> 00:52:52,085 of this simple invention was felt almost immediately. 901 00:52:52,210 --> 00:52:55,672 Eli Whitney put together a few boards and rollers, 902 00:52:55,797 --> 00:52:58,299 and gave the world a giant industry. 903 00:52:58,424 --> 00:53:00,760 Cotton was king. 904 00:53:02,470 --> 00:53:05,390 This new, expanded plantation system 905 00:53:05,515 --> 00:53:08,851 demanded a political party to defend its interests: 906 00:53:08,976 --> 00:53:12,146 the Democratic Party. 907 00:53:12,271 --> 00:53:14,124 At the time of the founders, they thought slavery 908 00:53:14,148 --> 00:53:15,400 was a dying institution, 909 00:53:15,525 --> 00:53:17,276 but in the 19th century, that had changed. 910 00:53:17,402 --> 00:53:19,237 They now began to talk about slavery 911 00:53:19,362 --> 00:53:20,655 as a progressive institution. 912 00:53:20,780 --> 00:53:22,323 And why not? 913 00:53:22,448 --> 00:53:25,159 As George Fitzhugh, one of the principal 914 00:53:25,284 --> 00:53:27,912 pro-slavery propagandists, argued: 915 00:53:28,037 --> 00:53:30,373 Isn't slavery the same thing 916 00:53:30,498 --> 00:53:33,501 as what we are reading about among European socialists? 917 00:53:33,626 --> 00:53:36,796 What else is slavery, Fitzhugh argued, 918 00:53:36,921 --> 00:53:39,507 but a practical form of socialism? 919 00:53:41,551 --> 00:53:44,929 Fitzhugh even tried to sell his idea to black leaders. 920 00:53:45,054 --> 00:53:46,556 He defends slavery 921 00:53:46,681 --> 00:53:49,809 as an early form of the welfare state. 922 00:53:49,934 --> 00:53:52,311 Fitzhugh argues that in slavery, 923 00:53:52,437 --> 00:53:54,063 unlike in capitalism, 924 00:53:54,188 --> 00:53:56,023 the slaves who cannot provide for themselves 925 00:53:56,149 --> 00:54:00,403 are looked after from cradle to grave. 926 00:54:00,528 --> 00:54:03,197 If you took the logic of that argument-the idea 927 00:54:03,322 --> 00:54:06,325 that the slave plantation is a kind of extended family, 928 00:54:06,451 --> 00:54:08,578 that from each according to his abilities 929 00:54:08,703 --> 00:54:10,455 to each according to his need... 930 00:54:10,580 --> 00:54:12,039 Marxian principle... 931 00:54:12,165 --> 00:54:14,083 That this was not only an excuse 932 00:54:14,208 --> 00:54:17,086 for enslaving black people, but there was nothing in the logic 933 00:54:17,211 --> 00:54:19,380 that prevented you from enslaving a white guy. 934 00:54:19,505 --> 00:54:21,090 Why not enslave white people? 935 00:54:21,215 --> 00:54:23,760 Or at least reduce them to an economic status 936 00:54:23,885 --> 00:54:25,344 little better than that. 937 00:54:25,470 --> 00:54:26,929 Why not also extend slavery 938 00:54:27,054 --> 00:54:29,140 into the Northern, free states? 939 00:54:29,265 --> 00:54:31,350 Lincoln thought he discerned 940 00:54:31,476 --> 00:54:33,352 the hand of a plot here. 941 00:54:33,478 --> 00:54:36,439 Would it be accurate to say that one of the key differences 942 00:54:36,564 --> 00:54:38,900 between the Republican and the Democratic Party 943 00:54:39,025 --> 00:54:42,236 is that the one party is founded on the idea 944 00:54:42,361 --> 00:54:44,864 of keeping the fruits of your labor, 945 00:54:44,989 --> 00:54:46,669 and the other party is founded on the idea, 946 00:54:46,783 --> 00:54:49,452 we get to take your stuff, either for our own use 947 00:54:49,577 --> 00:54:52,038 or because we've got some other, better use for it? 948 00:54:52,163 --> 00:54:54,957 That became the credo of the Democratic Party. 949 00:54:55,082 --> 00:54:58,169 The great opponent of the Democratic plantation 950 00:54:58,294 --> 00:54:59,837 was Abraham Lincoln. 951 00:54:59,962 --> 00:55:03,299 In a phrase, Lincoln described the evil of slavery 952 00:55:03,424 --> 00:55:04,926 at its core. 953 00:55:05,051 --> 00:55:08,054 You toil and work and earn bread, 954 00:55:08,179 --> 00:55:10,389 and I'll eat it. 955 00:55:10,515 --> 00:55:14,185 Whenever I hear someone arguing for slavery, 956 00:55:14,310 --> 00:55:17,230 I feel a strong impulse to see it tried out, 957 00:55:17,355 --> 00:55:19,607 on him personally. 958 00:55:19,732 --> 00:55:22,193 Lincoln ruthlessly exposed 959 00:55:22,318 --> 00:55:25,446 Democratic hypocrisy. 960 00:55:25,571 --> 00:55:28,157 Wolves devouring lambs... 961 00:55:28,282 --> 00:55:31,536 Not because it is good for their own greedy maws, 962 00:55:31,661 --> 00:55:33,663 but because it is good for the lambs. 963 00:55:33,788 --> 00:55:37,917 For Lincoln, the fundamental sin of slavery 964 00:55:38,042 --> 00:55:39,293 curiously enough 965 00:55:39,418 --> 00:55:41,712 was not its racial aspect... 966 00:55:41,838 --> 00:55:43,130 That comes after. 967 00:55:43,256 --> 00:55:46,259 The fundamental sin of slavery is theft. 968 00:55:46,384 --> 00:55:48,261 Because it says: 969 00:55:48,386 --> 00:55:50,513 You work, you toil, 970 00:55:50,638 --> 00:55:53,182 I will take the proceeds of that. 971 00:55:53,307 --> 00:55:55,852 And Lincoln's great anxiety was to point out 972 00:55:55,977 --> 00:55:59,105 how Northern Democrats had conspired together 973 00:55:59,230 --> 00:56:01,983 with Southern Democrats to promote justifications 974 00:56:02,108 --> 00:56:06,070 of taking away the fruit of other people's labor. 975 00:56:06,195 --> 00:56:08,865 Guelzo is exposing the progressive strategy 976 00:56:08,990 --> 00:56:11,284 of blaming slavery on the South. 977 00:56:11,409 --> 00:56:13,619 The Northern Democrats were in league 978 00:56:13,744 --> 00:56:15,371 with the Southern Democrats, 979 00:56:15,496 --> 00:56:18,249 making slavery the sin not of the South, 980 00:56:18,374 --> 00:56:22,044 nor of America, but of the Democratic Party. 981 00:56:22,169 --> 00:56:25,590 Northern Democrats were fully as complicit in this 982 00:56:25,715 --> 00:56:28,342 as Southern Democrats. 983 00:56:28,467 --> 00:56:31,470 The powerful New York Democrat Martin Van Buren 984 00:56:31,596 --> 00:56:35,766 applied the idea of rural plantations in the South 985 00:56:35,892 --> 00:56:39,687 to urban centers in the North. 986 00:56:39,812 --> 00:56:42,148 When new immigrants came to America, 987 00:56:42,273 --> 00:56:44,817 they were poor, insecure, desperate. 988 00:56:44,942 --> 00:56:47,486 Some came as indentured servants. 989 00:56:47,612 --> 00:56:50,031 Like the slave populations in the South, 990 00:56:50,156 --> 00:56:52,366 they were a vulnerable people. 991 00:56:52,491 --> 00:56:56,495 Van Buren created an army of big-city bosses, 992 00:56:56,621 --> 00:56:59,832 like Boss Tweed, who ran Tammany Hall in New York City, 993 00:56:59,957 --> 00:57:01,542 who would raid the treasury 994 00:57:01,667 --> 00:57:05,212 and use the money to create a patronage system 995 00:57:05,338 --> 00:57:07,214 that would keep immigrant populations 996 00:57:07,340 --> 00:57:10,384 collectively dependent on, and voting for, 997 00:57:10,509 --> 00:57:12,428 the Democratic machines, 998 00:57:12,553 --> 00:57:14,805 like in this scene from Gangs of New York. 999 00:57:14,931 --> 00:57:16,807 take the chill off your soul 1000 00:57:16,933 --> 00:57:18,476 and the weight off your heart. 1001 00:57:18,601 --> 00:57:20,353 Welcome to America, son. 1002 00:57:20,478 --> 00:57:22,271 Your long, arduous journey is over. 1003 00:57:22,396 --> 00:57:23,940 Go back to your own country! 1004 00:57:24,065 --> 00:57:25,107 Vote Tammany! 1005 00:57:26,901 --> 00:57:28,653 So, before the Civil War, 1006 00:57:28,778 --> 00:57:30,613 the Democrats' majority status 1007 00:57:30,738 --> 00:57:34,450 depended upon rural plantations in the South 1008 00:57:34,575 --> 00:57:37,411 and urban plantations in the North. 1009 00:57:39,038 --> 00:57:41,624 Lincoln warned that the goal of the Democratic Party 1010 00:57:41,749 --> 00:57:46,003 was to turn all of America into a plantation. 1011 00:57:46,128 --> 00:57:49,298 To stop Lincoln, the Democrats went to war. 1012 00:57:49,423 --> 00:57:51,509 $4“ 1013 00:57:55,471 --> 00:57:57,723 Lincoln won the war and demolished 1014 00:57:57,848 --> 00:57:59,684 the old Democratic plantation. 1015 00:58:01,435 --> 00:58:02,979 Republicans took steps 1016 00:58:03,104 --> 00:58:06,607 to integrate former slaves into American life, 1017 00:58:06,732 --> 00:58:10,611 to create for the first time a multiracial democracy. 1018 00:58:10,736 --> 00:58:12,279 Republicans pushed through 1019 00:58:12,405 --> 00:58:15,282 three landmark constitutional amendments, 1020 00:58:15,408 --> 00:58:18,953 freeing the slaves, guaranteeing the right to vote, 1021 00:58:19,078 --> 00:58:22,581 and securing equal rights under the law. 1022 00:58:22,707 --> 00:58:25,292 The Democrats overwhelmingly opposed all three. 1023 00:58:25,418 --> 00:58:27,128 And these were the Northern Democrats. 1024 00:58:27,253 --> 00:58:28,587 The Southern Democrats 1025 00:58:28,713 --> 00:58:31,757 had not yet been let back into the Union. 1026 00:58:31,882 --> 00:58:33,592 The Democrats needed 1027 00:58:33,718 --> 00:58:35,845 a new enslavement strategy 1028 00:58:35,970 --> 00:58:37,888 and someone to implement it. 1029 00:58:38,014 --> 00:58:40,599 Democratic President Woodrow Wilson knew 1030 00:58:40,725 --> 00:58:42,685 the national government had defeated 1031 00:58:42,810 --> 00:58:44,687 the old slave plantation, 1032 00:58:44,812 --> 00:58:47,106 so he and other progressives wanted 1033 00:58:47,231 --> 00:58:50,943 a new plantation system ruled by the national government 1034 00:58:51,068 --> 00:58:53,612 so it would last forever. 1035 00:58:53,738 --> 00:58:57,533 Wilson's first step: federal segregation. 1036 00:58:57,658 --> 00:58:59,368 He forced his departments to establish 1037 00:58:59,493 --> 00:59:03,122 separate workstations and restrooms for blacks. 1038 00:59:03,247 --> 00:59:07,752 Wilson's second step: racial terrorism. 1039 00:59:07,877 --> 00:59:10,546 Wilson screened the film Birth of a Nation 1040 00:59:10,671 --> 00:59:12,882 in the White House. 1041 00:59:13,007 --> 00:59:17,386 It spurred a national revival of the Ku Klux Klan. 1042 00:59:17,511 --> 00:59:19,388 The Klan had previously been confined 1043 00:59:19,513 --> 00:59:21,682 to a handful of Southern states. 1044 00:59:21,807 --> 00:59:24,518 Now it stretched from coast to coast. 1045 00:59:24,643 --> 00:59:28,397 The Klan became the domestic terrorist arm 1046 00:59:28,522 --> 00:59:30,399 of the Democratic Party. 1047 00:59:30,524 --> 00:59:32,651 Wilson was the first progressive president. 1048 00:59:32,777 --> 00:59:35,154 "Progressive" here means progress 1049 00:59:35,279 --> 00:59:38,074 toward the powerful centralized state 1050 00:59:38,199 --> 00:59:41,827 and away from the American founding. 1051 00:59:41,952 --> 00:59:44,205 In the Democrats' new plantation scheme, 1052 00:59:44,330 --> 00:59:46,874 the big house is the White House, 1053 00:59:46,999 --> 00:59:50,711 and the plantation master is the president. 1054 00:59:53,881 --> 00:59:56,092 $4“ 1055 00:59:56,217 --> 00:59:59,720 Now let's turn to modern racism, 1056 00:59:59,845 --> 01:00:02,431 racism in the post-war era. 1057 01:00:05,935 --> 01:00:07,394 Here's what the left says: 1058 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,272 The Democrats may have been the party of racism 1059 01:00:10,397 --> 01:00:12,316 a long time ago, 1060 01:00:12,441 --> 01:00:14,193 but they underwent a conversion. 1061 01:00:14,318 --> 01:00:18,239 Now they are the champions of civil rights. 1062 01:00:18,364 --> 01:00:21,242 The left insists that in the 1960s, 1063 01:00:21,367 --> 01:00:24,662 the two parties switched sides, 1064 01:00:24,787 --> 01:00:28,207 brought about by Richard Nixon's Southern strategy. 1065 01:00:28,332 --> 01:00:31,418 Supposedly, Nixon converted the racists 1066 01:00:31,544 --> 01:00:34,255 in the Democratic Party, the Dixiecrats, 1067 01:00:34,380 --> 01:00:36,674 into Republicans. 1068 01:00:36,799 --> 01:00:39,260 So, today, Democrats are the good guys, 1069 01:00:39,385 --> 01:00:42,471 and Trump and the Republicans are the bad guys. 1070 01:00:42,596 --> 01:00:45,057 Did Nixon have a campaign strategy 1071 01:00:45,182 --> 01:00:48,144 that appealed to the racists of the Deep South? 1072 01:00:48,269 --> 01:00:49,645 No one has uncovered 1073 01:00:49,770 --> 01:00:54,066 a single racist campaign statement by Nixon. 1074 01:00:54,191 --> 01:00:57,236 So the left says Nixon used crime and drugs 1075 01:00:57,361 --> 01:00:59,822 as a code for racism, 1076 01:00:59,947 --> 01:01:02,199 but in fact, Nixonian resentment 1077 01:01:02,324 --> 01:01:05,911 was directed against the Vietnam draft dodgers 1078 01:01:06,036 --> 01:01:08,873 and the militant anti-war protesters 1079 01:01:08,998 --> 01:01:12,042 and the drug-smoking hippies. 1080 01:01:12,168 --> 01:01:14,086 You might recognize the
