mr. wilson. one of the main differences is for mr. wilson had been able to land a job with an industrial firm, by the time floyd came around, that was not possible. so as a result of the life of big floyd represents a moment in the 1990s in which an increasing number of african-american young men could not find gainful employment. and yet he kept on trying and trying. it was not the person i ever met, but he really tried to bring his children back together and be a father. and the course of his life, the most dramatic moment, a man who didn't train didn't smoke didn't do drugs. i tell my students by the standards he was way ahead of me because i did smoke and a good drink although i never did drugs. the point that i'm making with my students in that respect is if you are going to use a moral yardstick to measure the worthiness of impoverished people, big floyd is not going to help you because he was a pretty moral person and he very much wanted to be a father. eventually he did get a job as a security guard and in order to make sure th

wilson: mr. speaker, this week we received good news. on tuesday, 200 girls and 93 women were rescued from boca had a ram -- boko haram camp in a forest. on yesterday, another group 160 women and children were rescued in the same forest. these reports bring me great hope. my heart goes out to these women, girls and their families who have experienced their worst nightmare. i'm hopeful that the girls who were kidnapped over a year ago are a part of these ongoing rescue missions by the nigerian army. mr. speaker, yesterday i asked my fellow congresswomen to wear red in honor of the missing girls. and together in the well of the house of representatives. together we called attention to the atrocities committed by boko haram. call for the return of all of the kidnapped girls, and call for nigerian leaders to be held accountable by the world. it takes the political will of the nigerian government and the conviction to do what's right to eradicate boko haram and end the tranlic reign of terror. we hope
