i am savannah guthrie.nk you for watching that sam considered an employee of his or her university, the university can't get around negotiating a salary nil, but if that same athlete is considered an employee of his or her university, the university can't get wrong negotiating a salary for that athlete. >> reporter: in 2015, northwestern university football players also voted to unionize, only for that status to be overturned on appeal and dartmouth college is appealing, saying the school works productively with five unions, but athletic pursuit is part of the educational experience, classifying students as employees simply because they play basketball is as unprecedented as it is inaccuratee table. still the legal process could take months or years to complete. it d the aflcio celebrating on x saying ncaa athletes make billions in profits for the universities they deserve a seat at the table. this is the start of a new chapter in athletics the process could take years to complete it does make sense many pe

savannah. >> peter, thank you. and also with us here in washington, kriste chamber. a senior democrat said to the president, nobody is going to call you cognitively impaired now. savannah. >> peter, thank you. also here in washington with us, kristin welker, moderator of "meet the press" and christine romans good morning to both of you. we'll talk substance in a moment but this performance issue, the one peter raised, the age, all of this, the elephant in the room, how did he do? what are you hearing >> democrats are breathing a sigh of relief one democrat told me this performance was a total 10 because the president was strong, because he was energetic, because he took on donald trump within the first four minutes of starting this speech, savannah what are republicans criticizing him on this morning? they say he's too partisan they're not criticizing him for a lack of energy that was the point he took on the age issue head on. >> we saw him taking on the age issue. we're going to talk about economy in a minute. bu

margaret coker, lydia and savannah. but i. i'm a military brat. we to oklahoma.when i started high school in ninth grade. you had to one semester of oklahoma history and one semester of world history. and we did not learn a thing about greenwood in my oklahoma class 30 years ago. could you speak to how the state as curriculum or as a state? schools, public schools are now teaching. oklahoma is about this. yes. yeah thank you. the question was about how much students in oklahoma learn about the race massacre. to your point, i talk to people all ages from greenwood white, black or far from tulsa, white and black. and so many of them have told me that they never learned about this in school, let alone any of us who grew up outside of oklahoma. there's been, i think, some technical things done to make that more prevalent. so for example, teaching about the race massacre as part of the oklahoma state standards. now, however. so it varies from teacher to teacher. and also now the state superintendent named ryan walters, who is very kind of on a crusade against critical

savannah? >> all right. we'll be watching today.y on nbc news projecting that each candidate secured enough delegates to clinch its party's nomination after sweeping yesterday's primaries. trump's projected tuesday night victory sends him over the 1,215 delegate mark needed for a lock going into a republican convention in july president biden reached his magic number, 1,968 delegates, after georgia's primary. >>> officials in pittsburgh were investigating a massive house explosion that killed an 89-year-old man and his 87-year-old wife the explosion was actually felt for miles around it levelled the couple's home right down to the foundation and set fire to a hill behind them, as you can see here. the large pieces of debris flew over the surrounding trees damaging nearby houses as well although the official cause is not yet known, investigators say there was a private gas well and also propane tanks on the property. >> we have all been there before, sitting on an airplane after boarding hoping nobody will come and squeeze into the m

you know her as the co-anchor of the "today" show, but now savannah guthrie is showing a new side ofth her faith. while she doesn't consider herself a theologian, savannah says like so many americans she has had a spiritual journey throughout her life, from sunday school to choir practice, she always saw god as the sixth member of her family. in her new book, mostly when god does, savannah explores her relationship with god and how it has impacted the biggest moments of her life. ahead of this easter sunday, i sat down for a very special meet the moment conversation with my nbc news colleague to discuss what she's learned while reflecting on her deeply held beliefs. >> why did you want to write this book now? >> you know, no one is more surprised than me that i wrote a book about anything let alone about faith and about god. it's definitely the most personal and vulnerable thing i've ever done. >> well, as someone who has known you for a long time i have to say one of the most beautiful parts of reading this book is that i hear your voice in every word. >> really? >> i felt like i wa

>> great question, savannah. one of the big questions we're watching for is the 40% or so that nikki haley has been getting. can trump get that? the answer is no. his campaign acknowledges about 25% off the table. but what happens to that other 15%? independent moderate voters? can he win those in a general election? or does that represent a real vulnerability for him? anecdotally i was at a haley event last week talking to her supporters, what if she doesn't win the nomination, will you vote for trump? the answer is yes. those are the voters he needs to win swing states like michigan, north carolina. >> so it is really a slice of this haley vote that either trump or biden has to get if they want to get over that 50% and win the election. this isn't exactly a rematch of 2020. the candidates are the same, the dynamics are not, steve. >> the polling, savannah, is looking very different than it did four years ago. if you remember four years ago, in a major poll, joe biden never once trailed donald trump. just in the

matt, of course, is the founder of the savannah book festival. and i thank them for their years of support and for sponsoring talk this year. and it's hard to believe that it was 17 years ago when i was speaking at the national book festival in washington, dc, when a man introduced us and self and said, hi, i'm matt prickett, i'm a book festival in savannah. would you like to. and little did he know that savannah already one of my favorite cities. so of course i said yes today i'm not going to bore you by reading aloud for my book except for a couple select quotations that really helped set the stage. whenever i tend to book event, i don't enjoy reading it. so i figured can do that ourselves and i'm more in hearing about the author, their lives, their stories, their journeys, why they wrote the book, what them, the research and how they write. i grew up in a family of storytellers. my grandmother worked for several of the big chicago newspapers the sun, the sun-times, the daily, at the tail end of the hecht's front page era. and i've learned frus
