(fisher investments) it's easy to think that all money managers are pretty much the same, available at your local but at fisher investments we're clearly different. (other money manager) different how? you sell high commission investment products, right? (fisher investments) nope. fisher avoids them. (other money manager) well, you must earn commissions on trades. (fisher investments) never at fisher investments. (other money manager) ok, then you probably sneak in

some hidden and layered fees. (fisher investments) no. we structure our fees so we do better when clients do better. that might be why most of our clients come from other money managers. at fisher investments, we're clearly different. ama: building a better bay area with a focus on education. the 1619 project documents the first enslaved africans in the english colony of virginia. now the first picture book about it for kids has been published. one of the authors will read it tomorrow to san francisco students. abc 7 news senior reporter lena melendez has a look at the impact the book is expected to have. >> this was a beautiful civilization that existed way before whips and chains and oppression. lena: the children's book the 1619 project born on the water shows people living in different regions of west and central africa with their own traditions and customs until they attempted to take that away from them. >> this book in particular was

written with black children in mind, to really be able to speak directly to them about what their origin story is and to feel proud of the people that came before them. lena: the authors selected the title born on the water because africans were taken away from their homeland and put on a slave ship and it was at sea where they were forced to become a new people. the san francisco unified school district has taken great interest in how to teach this hard topic to all children. the deputy superintendent of instruction reached out to all teachers. >> make space for them to feel, to process, to respond, and if necessary, to take a break. >> it is never ok to force people to work without pay. it is never ok to treat people as if they are not human. providing opportunities for students to really express themselves about how they are feeling about this information is critical to racial healing and to racial understanding and

>> abc 7 sports with larry beil. larry: the giants open the season on friday and the a's named frankie montage as their opening day starter so we can assume he will not be traded between now and then. i hope. the a's, you don't know what these guys. they are slashing their payroll down to 1991 levels. $33 million. get this, there are seven players in the major. individuals, making more than the oakland entire roster. come on. a's hosting the giants in mesa, second to last game of the abbreviated spring critic brandon crawford gets the scoring started with the second homer of the spring. this one comes off cole irvin.

anthony, his final tune up and he was dealing strikes out. jed lowery checks away in the first and then four and two thirds scoreless innings finish with eight strikeouts. one nothing in the fifth. lou williams, to run double. giants go three zip. urban would allow runs in his final tuneup. 4-1 game in the six. kelly goes to right field, two runs scored. he gets up on third as austin slater bobbles out there for the giants hold onto it 5-3 and there is one more game before they head home and we begin the real season in just a few days. well, this not the way the warriors expected their season to go. injuries worried -- ruined any continuity but if they ruin -- if they win their final three games they would lock up the three seed in the west. huge weekend for golden state. they beat the jazz and kings and back to back games with several front liners resting. andrew wiggins got offensive. jonathan coming up, his hops are unbelievable. jordan poole leaving the way

with steph curry. pools development is shocking. he is so good, so fast. the warriors do not have a game until thursday against the lakers pretty looking for to practice time and the eventual return of steph curry with starting playoffs >> it will be a big week, you know, we will see how it all goes first off. but having a week or so if he is able to get on the floor, we can put together three or four really good at as we prepare. it would be nice to be able to do that and play home games and have a really good stretch at home. >> if you don't want to come in here and lay an egg, tell the guys before the game, you got to win the games they are supposed to win. it's a huge weekend for us just getting back to playing our brand of basketball. larry: the masters begins on thursday and tiger woods may actually play. he played a practice run today. the gallery was gigantic. woods was in a serious car crash or teen months ago. this does not even do it justice. there were people surrounding every hole he was at. his biggest challenge may not be

a golf, it could just be walking the course. tiger's legs were badly injured. fred said tiger looked phenomenal today on the course and tiger says he will make a gametime decision before deciding if he actually tease often thursday. >> he's here so it is already a return. but it's great. i was walking down -- i was teeing off on three and he was walking down 17. he jumped up and we were both air high-fiving, saying what's up. >> though game loves tiger and you see it everywhere you go. whether he plays or not, that is his decision, but i hope he plays. larry: i hope he plays too. and to think that about a year ago this time, the doctors were telling tiger woods he might not walk again. they were talking about possible amputation and to go from that to where he is, possibly ready to play in the masters again is truly unbelievable. and the audience will be gigantic if he does play on thursday for sure.

dan: that's exciting. i remember many years ago, that bad car accident. injured, and he came back. we'll see. larry: hopefully tiger can do the same trip dan: thanks, larry. ama: coming up on abc 7 at 8:00, american idol. the good doctor is on at 10:00 and stay with us for abc7news at 11:00. that will do it for this edition of abc7news. i am all much. dan: i am dan ashley. we appreciate your time and
