it is easier to do with whether i am in america or africa. wherever i go and find the environment of those who are living in poverty and resisting poverty. in that environment i find great inspiration. many of the men and women who are a an inspiration are filled with inspired moments to overcome oppression. i do not find that on wall street or beverly hills. in places where opportunity resides unbridled. i think the real creative energy is where people are caught in an economic abyss. tavis: how much of who you are has to meet growing up with a jamaican immigrant? >> everything comes from that fact. it was my formative years, when i left harlem with my mother who was an immigrant woman coming to america to find that generosity of the american dream and discovering that was not available to her. it was her taking us back to the island of jamaica until i was 12. i was shaped by that culture, the economy, and my people who are plantation workers and harvested those crops and took them to the boats run by the company to load a those ships at nig

here in america, afghanistan, africa or pakistan. the way to overcome that i think is through education and also with having courage and compassion. instead of building walls we need to build peace and have the courage to do that. so i went back to pakistan in 94 and brought the school supplies and finally got to the village and the man was again there to greet me. he shook his head and said, chizle what the heck. not only had i come back, he said you've made two big mistakes. we don't start building before wintertime and if you really want to build school we're going to have to build a bridge first and i hadn't really thought about that. so i came back to america and raised 10,000 more dollars. and then i got back from tack stan and bridge got built and no school yet. i was 38 years old, die hard bachelor and all i could think was getting that school built. i went to a fund raise er the fair month in san francisco where my hero was speaking. it was getting late and people were nodding off and he was going on and on about the queens

africa and south america. the world largest nonprofit producers or russia in the united states. united states sells the world's largest oil consumer and importer. the import of 45% of u.s. oil consumption down from a peak of 60% in 2005. net imports declined by 4 million barrels a day in six years. nearly half the clients can contribute lower u.s. consumption, a result of economic downturn and high oil prices. the rest is higher domestic reduction and other liquid fuels, particularly crude oil and ethanol. the largest crude oil production has taken place in north dakota and texas. north dakota's formation is rapidly increased in recent years enabled by technology advances and horizontal drilling and fracturing. and all production has been supported by federal policy and among the largest declines in production have been in alaska and california. despite lower u.s. imports, u.s. imports from canada have increased by 20% between 2005 and 20 11 a debate growth. accounting for a quarter of u.s. imports, canada's largest sponsors of oil. meanwhile, import volumes have fallen. countri
