i mean you know again jim brown was on your show talking about growing walnuts. it almost gets the point where you have to go you have to go so low tech and so extreme in some ways in order to find markets that are relatively untouched so. a walnut tree would be an example but beyond that there are agricultural markets that are still relatively untouched there are number of real estate markets that are on touched there are private partnerships that that devote themselves to facets of the of the credit markets that are relatively untouched. and by those pasts i mean there are there are mortgage backed securities that are offering high yields those had been manipulated and had been. influenced by the by both traders and by central banks but at the moment less so so there are little pockets of opportunity where investors can. can look for a non manipulated financial asset and hope for something better than one point three percent from a ten year treasury bond better than nothing and along with the congress hears all about by the way is that is the question i think i

brown tells us one version of civil rights that jim crow was a system of state mandated segregation, and in brown v. board of education the supreme court tells us that is not constitutional and we move from there to the new era of civil rights, and this book asks what does the civil rights look like before brown before we had that idea of jim crow? it does so by looking at what they were asking lawyers to do for them, what they thought jim-crow did to them and how it harmed them and their understanding of what it was was a lot broader than the image that comes out of brown v. board of education. the image was it's not only adel law saying that that's why children go to different schools. it's not only signs over water fountains. it's not only the law. it is also employers who only hire whites, industries that only hire whites or hire african-americans for the worst paid most dangerous worst condition jobs. is the federal government and the state government interfering in the economy in the racially discriminatory ways. is it, the image that comes out of the cases in the civil rights s
