now, the university of virginia has joined many other universities, including my own, the university of maryland, in exploring more so the connections to slavery in georgia. the role that slaves played an actually building in the buildings. i remember seeing at the university of mississippi a handprint on one of the brics of one of the slaves. the enslaved people who had left that print. from building the buildings to the fact that they were serving as servants to some of the students and the professors. sometimes they were hired out her. so there has been this big exploration. the reason for this founding was to perpetuate slavery. can you talk about what your opinion is about that? i read you saying that that is misguided and that is misleading, with the university of virginia was all about. >> yes. i would say from the outset, most of these books came out during the bye centenary of the university in 2019. preceded by the commission on slavery for the university. and they do represent a very informed corrective to earlier work in acknowledging the presence of slavery. it's unbelie

university a university was a big one. i know there were very few places in america at the time that colton stolt universities. i mean somewhere like columbia it was still known as columbia college and similarly south carolina's south carolina college did is difficult to keep using the original terms for more readers. i sometimes deliberately transmitted. got something in brackets his idea of universe. is it basically taught everything? it should try and be as universal? in knowledge as possible many people today tend to think of jefferson as someone who's pushings something like modern stem, you know, science technology engineer mathematics. and that actually is an error. i'm what was innovative is he really wanted to teach the pure science is that this chemistry were often not being taught in other universities. this was one of the first universities to teach economics. so argued that learning anglo-saxons essential and spend a lot of time writing up the reading list for an anglo stack some course. he believed in the tea

an umbilical cord connecting our instance universe to parents universe. in parallel universe. and what's on the other side of the blackhole. if you fall in you just die? what happens when you go through ablack hole. is it a white hole on the other end of a blackhole . in 1935 albert einstein and a student nathan rosen defies the einstein rosen bridge shown here. it connects to universes together with a bridge, the einstein rosen bridge. connecting our universe to another universe and perhaps another universe is in a different time in which case this would be, a time machine. so think about it, physicists are now meeting the world of science fiction. now you seen this before. where have you seen this before in a children's book? years ago there was an oxford mathematician by the name of charles dobson. he knew about wormholes, mathematicians call them multiply connected spaces. they don't call them wormholes, the press calls them wormholes.se however charles dobson decided to write a book about them and he could not use his name of course, he was a distinguished professor of id

universe after universe being split apart. there's a tv series based on that, manion high castle is on tv. that roosevelt, and the germans won and cut up the united states because they won world war ii because an assassin's bullet killed roosevelt. a bullet is a quantum event. a bullet, the flaring of gunpowder, adams could cause a misfire that sometimes guns misfire. in one universe roosevelt died, the nazis won. in the other universe, the bullet misfired, roosevelt went on to lead us in world war ii and the nazis were defeated. two universes split by one bullet which in turn is a t quantum event based on the laws of chemistry and atoms, what is the way around us. richard d feynman, the great physicist, and either there is a cosmic observer, i.e. god, or an infinite number of parallel universes, take your pick. in other words, get used to it. the theory works, the theory works but the philosophy behind the theory would blow your mind, two alternate heads of view, your head explodes thinking about it. >> host: explain to us wh

connecting the universe to another universe and perhaps another universe is in another time in which this would become a time machine. so think about it, physicists are now leading the world of science fiction. you've seen this before? there was an oxford mathematician who knew about wormholes. however he decided to write a book about them and he could not use hisne name of course so he wrote under a pseudonym and called it through the looking glass. it is a gateway between our universe and a paramount universe. the next question i'm sure you're going to ask me is if there is a gateway between us and a parallel universe, then is elvis pressley still alive in a parallel universe? the answer is probably yes according to the quantum theory. so we are talking about a multi-verse of universes now. it was t einstein that said it s a bubble of some sort. the bubble is expanding as called the big bang theory. but there could be other universes out there. when the universes collide, that's called the big bang. so the big bang could be a collision of the multi-verse. i find this aesthetically

slavery in the university. in part a response to the discovery of 67 grave shafts that are now understood to be part of the burial location for enslaved people during the university's early decades. working closely with the local african-american community the university restored this cemetery as a location and a site for reflection and remembrance. jefferson's design for the university has long been seen as a model for campuses throughout america. an open quad that is surrounded by teaching space and at the university also living quarters for both students and faculty. it included the round building at the top, which is called the rotunda which was the library and held classrooms. the larger buildings running down the inside parallel rows. there are called pavilions and those held classrooms and a residence for faculty. the large two-story buildings on the outer rows were called hotels and those were the dining halls where students would eat and in between those larger structures are student rooms where the st
