In two thousand five, a bunch of community activists at Berkeley, California,
tried to force the local school board to change the
name of Jefferson Elementary School. Berkeley was radical wacko leftist
back then, but the idea getting rid of the name
Jefferson Elementary was just too extreme even for the liberal
school board back then. And now, how times have changed.
(00:21):
Last week, the Berkeley Unified Scruel District Board approved a
resolution in supported black Lives Matter, and as a result
of the unanimous vote, Jefferson Elementary will get his name changed.
Thomas Jefferson is out of there, and a school named
for George Washington, Washington Elementary will also get its name changed. Now.
(00:42):
Never mind that George Washington was the father of our country,
who led America the revolutionary war that changed the world
for the cause of liberty and freedom. Never mind that
Washington did what few would do. He gave up power.
They wanted to make him king, he said no. Never
Mind that Thomas je Person's role in writing the Declaration
of Independence, his service as our first Secretary of State,
(01:06):
or his own historic presidency. Both these guys were slaveholders,
and that is enough reason to stamp out their names.
Our history means nothing the leftist. The only thing that
matters to them is erasing it. They don't know that,
they really can't

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
