and finally jim martin is professor of history emeritus at marquette university in milwaukee, wisconsin, and the author editor or co-editor of over 20 books including most recently buying and selling civil war memory in gilded age america, which he co-edited with carrie janey and was published in 2021 by the university of georgia press. you may wonder why we titled this panel buying and selling the civil war. what does that mean part of what we're doing here is ting to sell this book. not to bring it too closely to market considerations, but the big questions of this book that that carrie and jim have edited that amanda has contributed an sa2 and i think there are 15 essays in total each essay gives readers a different vantage point on how the memory of the civil war intersected with associations with the market economy in the perd after the civil war and before 1900. it's a book replete as you will see with fascinating images. and we're going to useome of those images as kind of prompts for our for our discussion, but what 'd like to the questions we' like to answeror you include the o

we're talking about folks like the reverend jesse jackson, you see reverend sharpton there, martin luther king iii, jimburn. you're also seeing folks going across this bridge in a wheelchair or using a walker, holding on to a family member who might be a little stronger in terms of getting across the bridge. some of the figures of the american civil rights movement are heading into their golden years. to see them appear with president biden crossing this bridge i think is a very stirring image and thing to think about as well. it kind of reminds me a little bit of when i've been to normandy a few times and you see members of the greatest generation, world war ii veterans, it's poignant, something to behold and something to think about and reflect upon. the same here with the edmund pettus bridge. these are major figures of the american civil rights movement. john lewis is not there today. if it weren't for the sacrifices they made, this country wouldn't be where it is right now. >> reporter: that's right. i would note there are a few dozen people marching with the president right now. right in front of

mark and martin, welcome back to "mad money." >> thank you for having us, jim. >> all right.rt you, mark, it took nike eight years to get to $1 billion when it came public. it took you less than 18 months. how the heck is that possible? >> i mean, we hear that for the first time. so that's exciting news. but i think it's really possible thanks to an absolutely amazing team that is delivering outstanding products, outside experiences. so our fans, and the way our fans and consumers are appreciating things, the product, the stories that we're creating, it's so much fun. we couldn't be nor proud of what we achieved. >> martin, when i look at the doors you're in, wholesale, just a very, very small fraction of where you can be. but when i look at how -- at your capacity to make more shoes, what's going to happen? you cannot possibly meet the demand that you're seeing right now. >> that's what we try to do, we try to keep the supply below the demand so we don't want to create scarsty. we have brands up significantly on the production side. so we are ready to continue to grow on the

martin indyk, ambassador. thanks for taking the time this morning. thanks, jim. good to be with you. confluence of events here is truly remarkable. not only those protests we're seeing there, but a general strike. you have several mayors going on hunger strike and you have members of netanyahu's own government. publicly opposing him. here has the israeli prime minister is the israeli prime minister losing control of his government and of the country. i think he is. it's clear that he's lost control of the country has had reported. this has never been a general strike like this, which is shutting down the ports. the airport, the hospitals, schools, i mean, it's an extraordinary reaction, and it's because netanyahu is now playing with israel's security. he's not the netanyahu that i knew and worked with in earlier years whose instincts for survival are very good. he's done something. he's crossed the line here and it's going to be very difficult for him to cross back. and ambassador. i think we have some bullet points just to help remind people kind of how we got there that these prote

jim and kenya struggled with the ecological fall out of massive electronic waste. dumping by western countries with the amount of junk rising by more than 17 times, plenty of love. a good morning for martine or national tutors in moscow, and welcome to the hours most vital stories worldwide. i'm corolla, isabel, the russian ambassador, us anatoly, i'm on of says tuesdays incident involving a crushed american drone in waters off the crimean coast is a u. s. provocation. official added the you avi's capable of carrying multiple missiles and bombs. have no business being that close to russian borders. he explained the drone stalled, after executing sharp maneuvers and that russian jets did not come into contact with it. i think this is surreal provocation. most importantly, i believe that american, their craft and ships have nothing to do near the borders of the russian federation . this dro, when was a multiple pus strike drone that could carry up to 1700 kilograms of explosives. can you imagine that such an aircraft, a drone suddenly be new new york or san francisco? however, i want to emphasize that the russian pilots acted very professionally. there was no contract. there was no use a we

jim, it's the triumph of technology over experience in the future. the corey operators will use t l. e been as software for every blast induced book the smoke has cleared martin hopper and oh, he come out his one to see which lasting technique worked better. first, the charges that were covered with sand canal. exactly the wrong way round the explosive challenges in the sand pile should have torn a hole in the wall. instead, they only caused a few cracks. the wall on the other side however, should have remained intact. they go take a look. i was a does is does was we are his off on will for years of you on. so this is what we were afraid of. that the wall that was supposed to be destroyed, hasn't crumbled from the top of the wall that was supposed to remain intact, has crack names on it, or how to your play that endangers the collapse process on the felt. it involves which load or the direction of the for con basil. possibly. now they checked the wall with the bull holes dresses. these are fully run this test destroyed the drilled wall and left the other one intact. within a positive wash that had wanted to be that way positively surprised why we wouldn't hav

. >> yeah, martin luther king supported reparations he talked about it a lot, late in his life, this idea that we need to seek meaningful redress, not just for slavery but for jimat working was going in late life, who is on the, what we might call the critical race theory train. and so we charted that path of his, philosophically and politically in the past few years was life. >> you think about critical race theory and how that phrase, there are three words, i doubt that the word critical or theory is the offensive part for many people but the idea that it altogether shows a historical component or history, as it is known. tell me about what is use would've been about educating the public on the reality, not just the whitewashing? >> so i think that the biggest irony of king is that he was a proponent of telling the entire history of making sure that white people, especially, understood what had been done in their name in this country and you see king become a locus of this and disinformation his wife is often told, you don't hear much about the last year or two of his life. people don't know about his assassination and what happened after, he has become kind

martin greenberg said michael barr has the testimony out already. treasury under secretary nelly lane will testify before the senate banking committee tomorrow. one of the lawmakers looking for answers, jim's not what this is designed to do any more than the extraordinary measures put in place in 2009 were designed to last forever. let me also cut to the chase which is no, i don't think congress will act to lift the cap on deposits. i think there have been proposals, obviously, and the emergency activity, the emergency activity. i think there's some tough issues around this including whether -- who would pay and how could you insure every dollar of deposit. i can tell you there's a lot of policy issues, you know, not a lot of direction in an already divided congress, so i think that's going to be a lot less the focus of tomorrow's hearing, largely about what went wrong and what can be learned so that it doesn't happen again. >> well, i mean, learned so that it doesn't hap again, comes down to the fdic cap or lack thereof, right? >> i don't think so. i don't think so. i think you had a management team that was presumably well paid, experienced bankers that didn't understand something your

jim and erica, the state has a chance to do a reply closing as well. >> hmm, interesting. >> dianne, never a dull moment for you there. appreciate i. and now to discuss is civil rights attorney, areeva martin. now, where we are at this moment, the defense is starting the closing argument, and the prosecution's went on for four hours yesterday after the site visit to the site of the murders. i wonder, if this isn't good for defense this morning to be starting with this fresh jury after what was likely a long day yesterday. >> yeah, jurors, erica, they are real people, and they get tired and fatigued and a four-hour closing argument by all standards is a very long closing argument, and i know that the prosecution felt that they had to point out at the point of him being a liar and they needed to go through the evidence to establish a time line, but you have to be sensitive to people's attention span. you don't want to lose their attention span, and you want to hit them hard about the most salient points, but you don't want to hit them with overload. >> and now the closing argument and as expected zeroing in on the judicial system they only have to prove a reasonable doubt. what are you going

jim crow laws that kept african-americans off the voter rolls. they were arrested and beaten for their efforts. when famed civil rights leader dr. martin luther king jr. was arrested during one of these protests, he said that there were more african-americans in jail than on the local voter rolls. finally, 600 brave americans, led by 25-year-old hero, john lewis, planned to march from selma to alabama -- from selma, alabama, to montgomery. they wanted to discuss voter segregation with the alabama governor, and renowned racist, george walz. they -- wallace. they marched across the now famous edmund pettus bridge in selma in the hopes that they could find justice. instead they were beaten by white state troopers and sheriffs department -- deputies in a day known as bloody sunday. we have come a long way in this country from the evils of that era. but there are some people that are looking to set the clock back. but the forces of racism and prejudice have found new voices these days. and they are trying to undo the work that we have done to create an equal society. in 2022 there were 11 laws passed in eight states to restrict voting right
