and the fund's total over $4 billion over 3 billion of which come from outside investors such as auburn well funds and pension funds. today i want to propose another idea that could bring us closer to a world beyond aid, 50% solution. women make up 50% of the global population, and 40% of the global work force. in africa were mixed -- women are the backbone of the communities. they represent the majority of farmers in produce 80 percent of the continent's food. yet women own only 1 percent of the world's wealth. women and girls in developing countries are less likely than men to survive infancy come survive early childhood were to survive reproductive years. women are less likely to be paid for their labor, to farm out profitable crops or to own assets such as lee and, and yet the evidence of women's human, social, and economic potential is overwhelming. we know gender equality is smart economics. that countries with gender equality tend to a lower party rates, that a child's chance of survival is much greater if the income goes through the hands of the mother. that simply by giving wom

i wanted to walk like him and talk like him and hang out my shingle on auburn street just like walden. above all else pragmatists like walden and the black college presidents prioritized voting rights as the path to black power. and here we see walden challenging the so-called white primary. the laws, the tradition of excluding african-americans from the vote in georgia and elsewhere. and here is the result of his activism. in 1946 after the fall of the white primary, blacks lined up all over the streets in atlanta eager to exercise the franchise. and yet walden and other pragmatists were called accommodationists, uncle toms. and so the question is, why would that be? well, it was because he didn't challenge segregation in housing. instead, he made deals with local whites to find housing for african-americans wherever he could. in the midst of a postwar housing crisis. and this had the effect of maintaining the color line. um, and as a result poor black neighborhoods remained intact, neighborhoods like the one where this woman lived remained intact and really his decisions had the imp

bottom of it and the more i -- there are many, many colorful stories, i got to go to the alabama/auburnlast year, but the problem is, that we're not asking the right question. the right question is, how do we justify depriving college athletes of the money that they -- >> i was just going to say, the thesis seems to be it's right here on page 82, i would say down here, when you say the tragedy at the heart of college sports is not that some college athletes are getting paid, but that more of them are not. that we have designed a system where -- and you were very careful said i don't want to use plantation analogies and things like this, because there were good intentions at the beginning, but it's run amuck. >> it's absolutely run amok. the real question is whether or not professionalized sports and genuine education can coexist. but we avoid that question because we're pretending that the problem is dirty athletes getting money under the table. the ncaa never says exactly what principle, states of principle they shouldn't get the money. they have no vote, no representation. you can't r

the great thing, their rookie quarterback auburn gets drafted. had a remarkable game. this is really proved something, right? practice makes perfect. cam has already played for money, so he comes to the nfl, it's not that big of a shock. he put on a great display. >> he took a pay cut to come to the nfl. >> i know. >> cam newton and the carolina panthers on the road. newton finds steve smith down the sideline, 77-yard touchdown. and newton again, a 26-yard strike. newton set a rookie record, his numbers in just a second. but the cardinals rallied. another rookie, patrick peterson out of lsu. >> look at this one. >> great in college and a great start to his career. >> look at this one. >> he's breaking the tackle. dancing in the end zone, 28-21, arizona wins. but for newton, 422 yards passing, 422 in his first nfl game. two touchdowns, the first nfl quarterback to throw for more than 400 yards in his nfl debut. >> seriously, a great composure on cam newton, came a little bit short at the end. this guy is going to be -- and the most remarkable thing is they were locked o

it is an advocacy group the came out and said someone like andrew luck of stanford or camden from auburnh around $120,000 per year. star college basketball players were even more up to $265,000 per year. according to the report college athletes should be entitled to release one portion of that. so taken for what is worth i know a lot of people said they get a scholarship, if you are going to college not to towboats around, and you are there to make money for the school i think you should get a little of that. >> now let us go on a date over to the others said investors go at each other like a bar room discussion. it will be a bar room discussion. catherine is no longer above the fray, she will be down the dirt talking. really? she will be talking sporkin up next. >> will >> now first thought they played a lousy team. i said they beat dallas you got something, but i think what he did with its quarterback alex did it kept him pretty much under wraps see through 20 times and only 124 yds and honestly, were not for ted going crazy in the fourth quarter they maybe would not won the game but i
