we hope that you will join us in promoting economic education by attending a federal reserve program, teaching about economic topics in your classrooms or exploring careers related to economics. while we cannot all be together in the boardroom of the federal reserve in washington, d. c. this year, we are pleased to be able to engage with all of you virtually. we appreciate that both educators and students are joining us via livestream from across the country, although some of you may still be on summer break or just starting out a new school year. the past year and a half has presented many challenges, but we've seen the resiliency of educators as students have had to adapt time and time again. in an effort to recognize all of you, we wanted to kick off this school year by hosting a special program with the federal reserve chair highlighting the important role you play in preparing future generations to be active participants in a stable and growing economy in today's program. we will share about the federal reserve as well as everyone's role in our economic ecosystem. through our dis

the social economics, educational systems. the pieces that add a lot of value are not necessarily inside the traditional culture of medicine. so if we look at this issue of racism in the time of covid, you see this coming out very powerfully. what you see is that black patients at immortality and it was 2 to 3 times higher than white patientsand course it's still happening today . if you ask physicians why does that happen, no point to the system issues. don't point out the fact black patients often work in jobs that require them to take buses and subways that were crowded in places where disease can be transferred. they live in multi generational homes and all these pieces are crucial. nations that face the same issue found a way to let people be able to isolate, socially distance during the pandemic. there was much lower mortality than the united states but at the same time there's a cultural piece because we tell ourselves that as physicians we treat every patient the same and yet the data says that the from the earliest pe

corsi correspondent for economic education brad, thanks wes and ned the thing about cuomo he seemed tonting to do the thing where he waits at the media cycle. but new stuff keeps coming out all the time with all the things this guy was doing. what about this biggest thing having someone else sign his name on the harassment training? >> it's clear cuomo felt the rules apply to everyone else but not himself. what we are seeing the state attorney general leticia james, the rules are going to apply to you. this is the real problem, cat. he's got really powerful figures inside his own party determined to take them out. really, first of all he is a horrible human being, he is a creep. what someone wants to be the new governor of new york it's either attorney general james, it might be de blasio. this is an internal party take out. they have decided cuomo is now wildly inconvenient. the giving him evidence and the rope to take him out. i will note this, cats, you know this is a hit job because someone wants to be governor because they don't want to the rest home a policy that cuomo used to ki

negative effects of the institution of slavery in the united states, looking at various economic, political, educationaltion, and to develop appropriate remedies, it says, including potential reparations. now, that bill was approved and is awaiting a vote in the house of representatives. so, do you sense that we are going to get some kind of movement on reparations in the united states, and if so what will be impact be? well, let me say, it is a relay race. the caribbean at this moment is at the centre of this global discussion. what happened in the caribbean was very significant. civil society talking about this, demanding this. the rastafarian community, the pan— african community speaking about reparations for over 100 years. what was critical in 2013 was that the governments of the caribbean finally came on board. the governments of the caribbean finally came on board and said we are now supporting this civil society movement. they joined the cause. when that happened in the caribbean, it had tremendous consequences for the us, and therefore the us reparations movement was revitalised, re—energised,

mentioned the longstanding opportunities and longstanding issues of disproportionate and educational attainment and economic opportunities, specific engagement. there are ways we can address those if you allow me to put that label on it through agencies, through programs through banks. when is the last time you talked about c.r.a.'s these are things that can be done if we coordinate and define public-private partnership to get -- to move the needle where we have the most by way of challenges. the challenge has to be creative. but to continue to do so. and it is our hope that the agencies, particularly collectively, prieflt sector on their own because they have fewer restrikes to put things in place to patriotic a difference. when they come back next year and we will have a visit with this panel and that we are not talking about the same thing. it would be a shame that link between lack of broadband and percentage of poverty, they seem to be linked. ar by design. problems that we must proactively address. >> thank you so much. especially bringing back up the idea of poverty. omar asked how can we build the c

we know from decades of research that investments in education and economic secured he for families can yield a lifetime of benefits. increased wages and reduced crime among others. this resolution already passed by the senate reflects the net investment of the build back better plan as allocated across 13 committees. the budget committee will combine the legislation and prepare it for consideration. the resolution also provides for budget enforcement in 2022 and other necessary technical language. we must act quickly. america not wait any longer. we can no longer afford the cost of neglect and inaction. before i yield the floor, i would like to add a couple of things. one of the things that i am so impressed with by the administration is they have changed the mentality of how we think about the government and the problems of the country. for decades and decades, my experience has been would we discussed a problem, whether it was nutrition, housing, whatever it may be, the first question we asked was what can we afford to do? this administration is asking the questions in the right orde

education retainment. putting people on a pathway to economic mobility in closing the gaps physical. danielle: back to the idea of state this assessments, we are at a point where we are seeing states increasing their appropriations to higher education systems. as far as looking at the overall arching trend, we are not really back to pre-recessionary levels writ large. what are some of the factors that are contributing to the decline in state investment? and how do you think we start to really address this in a meaningful and sustainable way? >> you know, i intentionally do not use the language this investment -- this investment. -- disinvestment. states have really difficult decisions to make. it is rarely, if ever the case, that a state is saying, i'm going to not fund higher education because i'm going to take those dollars and put them in a wasteful place. it's much more often the case that states are making incredibly difficult decisions about how to use finite resources amongst a lot of different allocation possibilities, with all of them being incredibly important. with that sai

the young people are educated, have economic autonomy, have seen freedom to a certain extent in the past i think that there needs to be a proper form of negotiation, and that negotiation is mainly led with the political leaders. but there seems to be a disconnect, in my perspective, between the taliban military leaders and their political leaders. a severe heatwave has caused a series of wildfires in greece, with strong winds fanning the flames. thousands of people have been moved from their homes in the suburbs north of athens. an extreme fire warning has been issued, with the greek prime minister saying the country is in the midst of an unprecedented environmental crisis. this report from bethany bell. around athens, the hillsides are burning. people are desperately trying to put out the flames using whatever they can find. helicopters are bringing water to drop on the fires, but the scorching winds don't help. it's so dry here you can actually hear the parched branches crackle as they burn. emergency crews are struggling to stop the wildfires from spreading. vassiliki is trying to sav

far as the us can, people who are concerned continued very, very well in terms of economic progress in terms of education, in terms of massive shore, social change towards betterment that walked. all right in terms of specially and stuff. forget building of the african state re, buildings. i've got to work very well off flag begun to fly all over the world. and embassies returned to garrison. life began to look very, very different. but when it failed was in the conduct of the us military. and i guess the way they conducted the so called war on turkish, off terrorism. they told us that the centuries we're outside of capstone. but then they began to bomb african villages and holders and get all people hurt and, and killed, and homes destroyed. that is where the trend towards the negative began, and that is where my differences with the united states began. and that's where in the year or to say in 2006, this difference with the united states became up to come. now as i'm sure your vote agree with me, no complicated international problem has a simple solution and in fact, there is never a choice between a

the entire system is raw and and is dragging america down economically as a better educated we are being left in the dust as the anti- america brainwashing takes a deeper hold. the biggest threat we face and we are running away from it instead of confronting it. enough. we know what works and we can see what doesn't. it's time for real choice in education. real power and parents hands. real reform not in name only. it is time to and the public school monopoly. all the money, the entire schools budget should be returned to parents on an equal basis to spend on the education they think is best for their child some kids will thrive in larger schools thanks to the pandemic there has been an explosion of innovation entrepreneurial energy micro schools and parent run schools a host of options imagine how much more education innovators knew they had every parent in america as a potential customer and if we do this in fund students we can finally shut down the disastrous establishment and a local school bureaucracies this is not a pipe dream with any luck and with the support of the show we coul

dedicated to online schooling to follow up with those students who are supposed to do more educational task. lebanon's economic crisis is getting a lot worse with the government, increasing prices a few by 66 percent. then how to report somehow that's impacts and commuters in the capital bay routes for weeks 11 on has been experiencing severe fuel shortages. it is paralyzing the country. and the economy, people wait for hours in line outside gas stations, most of the time fuel is not available. the reason for this crisis is that living on is an economic turmoil. a few months ago, the government decided to subsidize fuel in order to avoid a social explosion. but now the central bank says it has run out a foreign currency reserve. the government subsidies policy has been criticized because what has happened is that a black market has been created and many are smuggling cheap. fuel anti itself, it's a neighboring period. the government is trying to call the crisis by gradually lifting a subsidies, but it is, it's not working. stop gap measure is, are not. the solution has been law, which holds political power alo

and then we shift our attentions and put their own resources behind it so that's our economic front and the education front in the program which is recruiting the scientists as well as researchers basically telling them i'm going to giveas you ten year in the institute or university. all you have to do is bring your research you are currently doing, share with us and keep it quiet from your employers and so last year for the first time the department of justice charged a chemistry professor sharing his technology with china without letting his employer know and by the way he's researching using our tax dollars in his research so that is on the education front and there's also information that happens in the media especially social media and it is about 50% of twitter as well as the likes of the diplomats and the information that's favorable about 50% came from the trolled accounts so the thing is even though they are gradually finding what comes out and closing them but before they close them, they give the impression that this may be something legitimate being influenced the account owners affiliate
