lonnie: absolutely.ave a country change unless you've got enough people to see it in the media, to have the influence on the federal government, to change the laws. so for me, protests, sophisticated strategic protest is really an effective tool. it is one of the ways that you make sure that you are heard, that you are seen and that it forces you to think about what are the strategic goals that you want out of this protest. so that is, in my mind, one of the most effective tools we have to change a nation. geoff: five years after the march on washington, dr. king gave a famous speech at the national cathedral in washington, d.c., where he famously said, "we shall overcome, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." when you survey the arc of the last 60 years, what do you see? lonnie: well, i think what you see is that we have made amazing progress, but that in essence, the realization is that you are not going to continue to get to where you want to be unless you contin

lonnie: -- janai: absolutely. think about the history of race in this country and not think about economics. we think about the idea that black people were brought here from the continent of africa to power a system of enslavement, of labor, free labor, of work camps, forced labor camps that helped to grow the economy of this country, helped to seed wealth into some communities and leave others completely destitute. that is the history of this country. and that was directly based on racial lines, whether you were black or you were white. and so as we think about how the civil rights movement evolved, it carried forth that legacy, the vestiges of slavery and, of course, jim crow and, of course, current day racism that continues to create an economic divide based on color lines. geoff: in the past few years, we saw demonstrations against police brutality after the police killing of george floyd and others. we've seen acts of civil disobedience in support of gun reform. mr. bunch, you've said that protest is the high

lonnie: john: one million americans are living with parkinson's disease, a progressive condition thatauses problems with body movement. every year, about 90,000 americans are newly diagnosed, but black patients are far less likely than others to be diagnosed. when they are, it is an average of years later than white patients. new research has identified a genetic variant that increases the risk of parkinson's in people of african descent. that is not seen in those of european ancestry. the managing director of aligning science across parkinson's, from your perspective, what is the significance of this research, not only for our understanding of parkinson's, but also for these underserved communities? dr. riley: i think it showcases the importance of inclusion and this intentional inclusion of people who are traditionally up for it -- underrepresented here in the u.s. and abroad. what we have done is the program under our umbrella that has moved this forward. the global pkinson's genetics program, what they have and has been inclusive through and through by creating a global coalition

lonnie, you think it is nikki haley's answer on abortion.lay a portion of this. >> can't we all agree that we should ban late-term abortions. can't we all agree that we should encourage adoptions? can't we all agree that doctors and nurses who don't believe in abortions don't have to perform them? can't we all agree that contraceptions should be available? and can't we all agree that a woman who wants an abortion should not be sent to jail? >> why do you like this? >> if the basic idea is who is the most credible in a general election and take out joe biden in november and that is the case you are making, and the es sen, at least part of the essence of nikki haley's candidacy, and she did well to give an answer to appeal to general election audiences, and this is the answer that you heard her give. her performance overall was quite good in presenting case of why she ought to be the republican nominee, and presented to be electable, and different and a breath of fresh air on the stage. it can be hard to stand out, and as terry and i know, whe

lonnie, we're talking about the economy. think with the democrats, specifically the matchup of president biden versus donald trump, you see it's 43/43 right now, which is ridiculous, but that's what it is. what about the failure of so many people on both sides of the aisle, republican and democrat, who fail to recognize one of the true economic realities in this country? this still remains for the vast majority of people a paycheck to paycheck economy. >> yeah. >> democrats talk about it as if it is, you know, "things are great. the price of bananas came down last week. yts. >> right. there is a mismatch between the statistics and how people feel about the economy. the statistics matter less than how people feel. almost 80% cannot rate this economy well. that should be a significantly worrying number for the president, for the president's re-election campaign. further challenge is a lot of this is out of the president's hands. it is in the federal reserve bank's hands. what the federal reserve bank does the next six months i

what setback for lonnie willis.te court, it's the atlanta county community, which is very familiar with the court. the jurors , all of those procedural jurors, all of those procedural things . but jurors, all of those procedural things. but if it was a federal court, it would be ten counties. >> they might be more they might be counties that are more sort of warm towards trump, rather than the inner cities that are more democrat. yes and no. >> yes and no, because while atlanta, biden won like 75% to 2 to 25% for trump in those ten counties. yes you did see more voters turning out for trump. however, biden still won all of those counties. so there is that. but another key development to watch out of this heanng development to watch out of this hearing is if he does agree to move to a federal court, the new strategy would be that, hey, i'm a federal employee . under us a federal employee. under us law, federal employees are not subject to state laws. so in fact, they're subject to immunity. right. so that would be ki
