the suburban valedictorian were roughly three times more lkely than boston valedictorian to earn $100,000more per year. you know, something like a quarter of boston valedictorians wanted to be doctors. today there's not a single doctor among that cohort. meanwhile, aong the suburbans, onere are eight doctors. >> yang: you men in boston there are two tiers of high schools. you've got exam schools youe got to test into them, and then the other public high schools, and there was also a difference between those schools. is that right? >> that's correct. i think the advanceschools are a real issue within the boston public schools.ou a quarter of all boston public high schoolers go to exam schools, and while that may sound like, you know, a great thing, th exam schools test higher on standardized tests, they oftentimes go to four-year colleges compared to the rest of the district. what that also means is the rest of the district is oftentimes burdened with having to educate "adjudicated" kids, kids that are economically disadvantaged, special needs kids, so the burden on the re of the sytem is

>> well, madeline was like a lot of the valedictorians in the boston public schools. came over to the united states as an immigrant, in her case frm the dominican republic, and ended up valedictorian of charleston high school and went to dartmouth university, oneo have the great schools in the country. >> yang: so let's take a list to hertory and we'll talk about it on the other sie. >> i didn't beneh t mucom being valedictorian other than i really go a gd scholarship and went to a really good school. i think my mother not being here in the couentry, ing how much e family struggled, but then i struggled the say, so... i was pregnant and living in a shelter. really a hard time. i got a lot of points togo college. i felt like it was just too much for me. i felt like i food myself during high school thinking i was so smart and i couanlde it. i was likely quick to understand a lot of things in high school, but college came and was very different young sh. >> yang: se said she was homeless and couldn't find a job. what did her story represent among the valedictorians youo

. >> they aren't all valedictorians. they weren't all brought in by their parents. for everyone who is a valedictorian, there's another 100 out there who weigh 130 pounds, and they have calves the size of cantaloupes because they're hauling 175 pounds of marijuana across the desert. >> okay, that's, like, the weirdest math problem i ever heard. "if jose is 130 pounds and he's hauling 175 pounds of marijuana, his calves would be the size of what fruit?" ( laughter ) like, the weirdest part of this one is that king isn't even working off existing stereotypes. he's just making up new ones that don't exist. mexicans have cantaloupe calves? you can't even tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing. even mexicans are like, "thank you? ( laughter ) i mean, i have been getting my steps in." so the first clue is racism-seeming. but on the other hand, cantaloupe isn't a racist fruit. like, if he really wanted to be racist he could have said bananas, or watermelon, you know, classic racist fruit. so we still need more proof. look, what's this? it's another clue. >> when you ta

for everyone that's a valedictorian there's another hundred out there that weigh 130 pounds and have calves the size of cantaloupes because they're hauling marijuana across the desert. >> none of that is true but all of it is toxic. in fact, i went at it with steve king more than once and he was never apologetic or intent or saying he was misunderstood. >> a muslim american, an italian american, a christian american, a jewish american, you do realize that they are all equal, right? they are all the same thing. we don't need babies from one of those groups more than we need them from one groups. do you agree with that? >> well, i would say that -- >> why do you pause on a question like that. >> what do you mean? >> it doesn't depend on any definition. you're either an american or you're not. >> seems like i was cutting him off the whole time, but i wasn't. he qualifies things like that. he struggles with accepting something that should be an inherent part of understanding what america is about. the problem is not the noise. it's the quite from his party. tim scott spoke out but only t

miss louise jones graduated from high school as valedictorian at the age of 16, and attended southern university and received her bachelor degree from san francisco state university, and heard masters degrees from u.c. berkeley and whereas they had a 43 year career with san francisco unified school district that included teachers, principles, assistant superintendents of elementary education and commissioners for the southeast community facility, and whereas they lead that cover of the village as a principal for almost 18 years under her stellar leadership, the third grade student outscored their peers in reading and meth. under her supervision, she helped the elementary staff to develop their leadership skills for this experience. at least nine of the staff members became principal assistance and superintendents, and dr matthews, superintendent. therefore, be it resolved that the multimedia library be renamed the multimedia library and be it further resolved that san francisco board of education accepts the proposal to rename the school library to the jones multimedia library and fur

like, neither of them can believe what just happened. ( laughter ) like, like, cuomo looks like a valedictorian caveman, and guiliani looks like if golem realized he just left his wallet in an uber. so after months of saying there's no collusion, now guiliani is saying there might be collusion, not by trump, but by trump's campaign. and i'll be honest, i don't know why trump keeps letting guiliani go on tv to represent him. ( laughter ) it feels like every time he goes on he causes more trouble, unless-- that's the point. maybe the master plan is to keep creating so many new scandals that robert mueller can never finish his investigation. ( laughter ) yeah, every time mueller writes, "well, i'm just about ready to wrap this thing up," guiliani says, i hope nobody realizes vladimir putin is secretly trump's father. and mueller is like, "two more years. two more years. ( laughter ) now, look, we could spend all day playing you clips of trump denying there was any collusion whatsoever, but we don't have the time to enjoy busting trump. because another one of his minions has been busted for some ot

for everyone who's a valedictorian, there is another 100 out there that weighs 130 pounds and they got calves of cantaloupes because they are hauling marijuana across the desert. there is more. king's kmecomments are nothing . condemn the comment, defend the man and defend the man. reacting to this unique's controversy, steve scalise, criticized king's language. he backtracks slightly. i think it is offensive trying to legitimatize those terms. it is important that he rejects that kind of evil. i disagree with steve's statements as they have been characterized and that's how i understand them. senator tim scott, the only republican in the senate wrote in the washington post quote ", some of the party wonder why republicans are constantly accused of racism." jeb bush calls for primary challenge for a primary challenge to the congressman. house minority leader kevin mccartney says steve's language is reckless and wrong and has no place in our society. here lies a problem for mccartney and the gop. steve king's language may have play no place in society but as of now, it does have a place

he said for everyone who valedictorian there is another that weighs 130 pounds and they have calves thee of cantaloupes because they are hauling 75 pounds of marijuana across the dessert. why was yesterday the tipping point? >> i think you are asking the $94 question. what's happening here goes well beyond steve king. it represents the further devolution of political debate in this country. tim scott, senator from here in south carolina, i think was eloquent in his condemnation of steve's remarks. the bigger question is what romney raised. romney said his comments aren't appropriate for polite company. are you kidding me? what's interesting about that is where is the outrage when donald trump says crazy things or racist things? where is the outrage when maxine waters says, let's go after the kids of cabinet members. where is the outrage when a recently elected senator from mississippi says put me on the front row of the lynching mob. what you can't have in politics is selective outrage. we say we are outraged at this but we'll turn a blind eye to all this other. what i find a little bit
