Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Marx did, as did all the founders of leftist, uh, movements.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Engels was w- very much aware, given his position, that Jewish emancipation would mean the almost like, um, you know, almost a Darwinian rule of Jews over everyone else, or at least the total exploitation of the poor by the rich.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Emancipation also meant that they no longer had any of these revolutions, especially in French Revolution.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
There was no duty, as you had in the, in the feudal era, no duty of capital owners to those working for them.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Marx argues in this that the so-called Jewish religion, and it's always in quotes, and he means it that way, is a reflection, so to speak, of not just Jewish life, Jewish economic life.

Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Jews have poisoned Christian life, so Christians are-- most of them have become materialists.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Christians have become Jews.
Matthew Raphael JohnsonGUEST
Emancipation, 'cause it's just an abstraction, that would unleash total huckstering.
Edmund MatyjaszekGUEST
But also the endless campaigning of the abolitionists on the slave trade, and that included Catholics in their ranks, also made the Protestant or Anglican movers of that campaign think about the issue of freedom in relation to their own fellow countrymen and women.
Edmund MatyjaszekGUEST
And this was part of the movement that eventually led to the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829, whose 200th anniversary we happily observe in three years time.
Edmund MatyjaszekGUEST
But alongside that, there was a general cultural change to come back to that whole role of culture, which I think is so important and known as the Romantic movement.
Edmund MatyjaszekGUEST
The great figures, of course, like Wordsworth, Coleridge, the painter Turner, Lord Byron, that led people to look before the onset of industrialization to examine earlier modes of society and images and ideas suppressed for centuries.
speaker_0HOST
What was the slave movie Will Smith did? That was a tough time.
speaker_0HOST
Emancipation, yeah.
speaker_0HOST
So we'll see, man.
speaker_0HOST
I just feel like, damn, so if you were an actress and she got to come home like that, you really got to just have, like, think about it.
Nishanth SelvalingamHOST
[laughs]And that is like the beginning of an avalanche.
Nishanth SelvalingamHOST
So when you think of the Bengali terrorist organization, if you think of like Bengali freedom fighters and the whole like Kolkata like Emancipation Act, Kali's at the heart of all of that.
Nishanth SelvalingamHOST
Kali in Ramakrishna is inspiring Keshab and Vijay Krishna Goswami, and even the person who wrote, um, Vande Mataram, like, like all these like famous nationalist songs, like liberation songs.
Nishanth SelvalingamHOST
The Bankim, the-- he was there with Ramakrishna, and Ramakrishna like chat- chat- chastised him in their first meeting.
Joe ThomasHOST
But you're on the wrong side of history.
Joe ThomasHOST
You're the ones fighting Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation.
Joe ThomasHOST
Emancipate these slaves and allow them to become citizens just the way Lincoln did on Juneteenth.
Joe ThomasHOST
Well, Kerry, first off, he didn't do it on Juneteenth.
JayHOST
Was Stargate woke because it had a woman on a military team or because it had a Black and Asian people as a Jaffa? No," Eric Martinez Marino said.
JayHOST
Could you imagine if they did Emancipation now? So the third or fourth episode of Stargate SG-1, um, or even some of the comments, um, that sort of, um, Colonel O'Neill said to Samantha Carter when he first met her.
JayHOST
Um, now it would just ...
JayHOST
It would probably send the, the, you know, social media crazy.
JayHOST
Uh, we look back on it and obviously because the show was so great it overwhelmed anything like that.
JayHOST
I mean, anything that I think people could point to like that was minor.
JayHOST
But episodes like Emancipation, yeah, would be seen very negatively now.
JayHOST
Um, Thomas IC says, "They need to end SGU." I think they'll just say that it was ended in the comics, if I'm honest, mate.
RoyAUDIENCE
You know where that comes from? Let me tell, let me tell, let me tell you where that come from.
RoyAUDIENCE
See, Emancipation, that's Emancipation Proclamation, January 31st, January the 31st.
Lurie Daniel FavorsHOST
Mm-hmm.
RoyAUDIENCE
Slaves wasn't free, but they knew Emancipation was gonna start, that Emancipation Proclamation, before midnight.
Lurie Daniel FavorsHOST
Right.
RoyAUDIENCE
Saturday at midnight.
RoyAUDIENCE
So they was praising God, and then when they did that, they went to praise God because they prayed to God to free them.
RoyAUDIENCE
Not man, God used Emancipation, but they believed God freed them, which I believe also He did.
Josh JohnsonHOST
And I have a difficult time, I guess, pinpointing the exactitude of this political change that we're about to talk about because it is-- Is it something that was deliberate? Is it something that the Lincoln administration sort of fell backwards into? It's hard to know.
Josh JohnsonHOST
But there is this great change, and it is a change that walks astride the Emancipation Proclamation.
Josh JohnsonHOST
And what's difficult to fully understand about the Emancipation Proclamation is, one, did Lincoln know what was going to happen as a result of the Emancipation? It's hard to know.
Josh JohnsonHOST
It's hard to know if he did it as this extremely pragmatic measure.
Josh JohnsonHOST
Was it a moral measure? Was it a pragmatic political measure? It is difficult to know because it's difficult to know the motivations of Lincoln the man.
Josh JohnsonHOST
Now, we talked about in the last part of this conversation how he was trying to get the border states to come along with him, to back him up.
Josh JohnsonHOST
He was trying to get the border states to abolish slavery via constitutional means.
Josh JohnsonHOST
And here's what's so interesting about the Emancipation Proclamation.

Brandon B.NARRATOR
The message which Mr. Lincoln transmitted to Congress at its regular session, in December, 1861, was a document veined by the wise conservatism which had distinguished his former papers.
Brandon B.NARRATOR
In alluding to the policy to be adopted to secure the suppression of the rebellion, he mentioned that he had been careful that the inevitable conflict necessary for the accomplishment of that purpose should not degenerate into a remorseless revolutionary contest in every document which as executive he officially promulgated as well as in his language upon the leading exciting questions of the day or hour his personal opinions were not left a subject of ambiguity and his personal views, as expressed alike in his letter to Fremont, modifying the Emancipation Clause of that General's order, and in his letter to Governor McGoffin, of Kentucky, refusing to remove the Federal troops from that State, and rebuking the unpatriotic demands of that official, in everything and at every time, his views have been of a strong, judicious, exalted nature.
Brandon B.NARRATOR
and they never failed to receive the respect
