and then on top of that, even as this economy starts to uptick, says the indiana university white paper the poor are still going to increase. because the anemic pace, the slow pace of the recovery, number one, because of long-term unemployment being so high, and number two, because the numbers of people stuck there are just so massive. so even as the economy starts to rebound, the numbers of the poor are going to expand. we can't go through another presidential campaign like the last, where poverty isn't discussed. >> thank you, again, to tavis smiley and dr. cornel west, for keeping poverty at the forefront of the national discussion. their special, re-making america, from poverty to prosperity, can be seen tonight onç c-span. thank you both, gentleman. >> thank you. thank you very much. >>> coming up, what now? good news on housing? that's the a big question mark. what the latest foreclosure numbers reveal next on "now." i'm embarking on a journey of epic proportion. i will travel, from sea to shining sea, through amber waves of grain, and i won't stop until i've helped every driver

indiana university this week released a paper called "at risk" which really does detail what this great recession has done to the american public. it is pretty clear from this report that the new poor in this country are the former middle class. the new poor are the former middle class. typically politicians love -- i guess their polls must encourage them to speak to the angst of the middle class voter. how do you talk to the middle class in ways similar to the past if the new poor in this country happened now to be the former middle class? >> i first just want to salute you in your leadership. give brother tavis a hand. very important.

which was me, took over and managed the project until about 2010 when i left ksu and went to indiana university. we collected approximately 40 interviews, we being myself and then a few students that i supervised. and we wanted this new part of the project to reflect some new goals and one of these goals was to have more variety of narraters. what i mean by that is the initial stage of the project, because it was heavily commemoration-based, inevitably you'll get primarily former students and then some faculty. now, we still did collect those and we did collect interviews during the big commemorations like the 35th and then the 40th which was the last one i attended in 2010, but we also wanted to collect a wide variety of interviews which we did just kind of informally throughout each year. and so as a result, we cast a bit of a wider net. so, for example, during that five-year period we interviewed two former presidents of kent state university, michael schwartz and carol cartwright. also interviewed several citizens of the kent community whose voices really had not been heard, they had not be

indiana university this week released a white paper called "at risk" which details what this great recession has done to the american public. there is a lot we will pick apart, but let me start with this -- it is pretty clear from this report that the new poor in this country are the former middleclass. typically, politicians love -- i'd guess there poles must encourage them to speak to the banks of the middle-class voter, but how do you talk to the middle-class in ways similar to the past if the new poor in this country have enough to be the former middle-class? >> first, i want to salute you in your leadership. give rather tavis -- brother tavis a hand. very important. i was blessed to go to 18 cities in seven days with him on the poverty tour that he came up with and his team facilitated. we were able to see the middle class brothers and sisters of all colors, all cultures, all civilizations, and sexual orientations. there were also immigrants. our brown brothers and sisters. they were black, brown, white. we started on the indian reservation. it is always fascinating to look at america t

i mentioned to you during the break that indiana university, the school of public and environmental affairs, is releasing a white paper next wednesday the 11th, a white paper that we commissioned. i can tell you exclusively tonight a couple of things i saw from that report that i got a chance to peek at before walking into the studio tonight. number one, the iu white paper that will come out to the nation next wednesday the media will be talking about finds a couple of things interesting. number one, that this great recession has left behind, don, more long-term unemployed americans than at any point in the nation's history since we started cleblgting this data in 1948. but, worse yet, the white paper coming out next week will say to the nation that, even though the economy appears at the moment to perhaps be getting some sort of small uptick -- the white house of course happy about that the last few day was this couple hundred thousand jobs bringing online, most of that i think due to increased holiday durihours. but this report suggests to us as americans that the numbers of the poor are

author of a season on the ring, that book was a candid account of the basketball program in indiana universityby knight, since then he made a career of gaining insight into some of sports most compelling figures and writes about those experiences and more in one-on-one, behind the scenes with the greats in the game. i am pleased to have him back at this table welcome. >> thanks, charlie, good to be here. >> i amerrific. >> rose: what led you to write this, and because there was a sense that you were going to do something else first and then -- >> i always that that at some point in my life i would go back to the characters from season on the bri, i would go back and see all of the players and coaches, many i stayed close to and end the book by knocking on boknight's door and saying it has been 25 years if you want to lk, but as i got closer to that 25th anniversary it occurr to me that most of the guys who are part of that book had gone on to very successful lives, some were doctors and businessmen and some were still in basketball, it wasn't like boys of summer that had the bittersweet qualit

many years later got a mba, master's in business administration from indiana university graduate school of business. so what i did was built a foundation thinking that i was going to be in the technology world where i spent five years with ibm. but after getting my mba, i actually got very interested or more interested in the investment world. so i switched careers. and became, basically, a money manager. >> it's 2011, why did you write "beating the odds" published by wiley, now? >> fortunately, we were able to get a major publisher, they're positioning it in the business book category, and actually i had no interest, no plans to write a book. and it was actually lordell lewis who's the widow of the legendary reginald lewis, one of the great, i would say greatest african entrepreneurs ever that encouraged me to write this book. so what she did was she got blair walker who she had commissioned after her late husband's death to write reginald's life story to call me. now, blair had a best selling book, "why should white guys have all the fun," reginald lewis' life story, and john wiley ha

deepak a advertise the middle east and secure our borders that is speech from indiana university in 2006nn coulter made. this tweet comes in from susan. how about we all resist the use of christian, muslim and or jewish as labels for terrorists and criminals? >> guest: well, when the terrorists are operating because they believe they are on a religious mission, when they're shouting "allahu akbar!" as they are flying planes into the world trade center, shooting up fort hood, then i think we have, what's known as a muslim terrorist. and we've had an awful lot of terrorism from people who think they are fulfilling allah's will. by slaughtering infidels and to stick your head in the sand and say that is not islamic terrorism will not make us safer. will certainly not make us safer to mayor michael bloomberg of new york and blame the car bomb in times square on tea partiers upset about health care and oh surprise. it was muslim terrorist. >> host: somebody tuned in a little later on the start of the program, have you been taught in public school? >> guest: i have attended public schools. my

letters, that they lost them in a fire in a study and everything that he had with his papers and indiana university. those were not very many were small letters. letters i found were letters he had written to friends and friends kept them for years because they were long the chatty letters. i think that he needs to warm up his fingers at the typewriter every day fall into his voice by typing to friends, writing a letter to friends. my wife and i found letters that were written on the same day. to single spaced pages of how things were going home and how difficult the book was and how brooch he was. no, incomplete. but in one of those letters in 1975, he said writing to james come he said on had a recurring premonition and it's that i'm going to be killed by a dog. an odd in the tree life but strangely inappropriate for the post-modernist who inserted himself into the literature and took chances with the narrative who broke all the rules and he exited this life leading a dog like one of his characters. so that's really all i have to say about my relationship was like with him and how i got to know h

have any letters, that he had lost them at a fire in his studies and everything he had were at indiana university those weren't personal letters. letters that i found were letters that he'd written to friends and friends had kept them for years because they were long, chatty letters. and i think kurt used to fall into his authorial voice by typing to friends, writing a letter to friends. my wife and i found letters that were written on the same day, two single-spaced pages of chat about how things were going at home and how difficult this book was and how broke he was, a common complaint. but in one of those letters in 1975 he says writing to jane, he says i have a recurring premonition, and it's that i'm going to be killed by a dog. so it was an odd end to a life, but strangely appropriate for a post-modernist who inserted himself into the literature, who took chances with the narrative, who broke all the rules. and kurt exited this life leading his little dog like one of his characters in sirens of titan. that's really all i have to say about what his, what my relationship was like with him and

our online university wgu indiana by texas and by washington. and at every governor's meeting, someone says if only we could pull off a deal half as good as indiana did with its toll road. the latest realm in which indiana is now a leader is perhaps the most important. from coast to coast, others are praising our reforms of public education. one national magazine wrote that indiana has gone from the back waters of education reform in america to the front. the fordham institute said no one has been more successful in providing a comprehensive reform plan for a system that's failing america's children. then this from even further away the daily telegraph of london wrote that in education, quote, england would do well to follow indiana's lead. the days when education debates started and stopped at dollar signs are over and high time. from president obama down, everyone recognizes that leaders in education are defined not by what they put in, but what they get out. just for the record and despite frequent misrepresentations to the contrary, indiana
