i'm looking forward to having some life on stephenson. i actually think that's a great little street. you know, and how it ends, there is potential there for a lot of street life and for some magic to happen. and be extended from the building. right now, it's kind of dead. and you know, i think that with some smart -- with the entrance being on there and also some smart landscaping and potential uses, it could happen. so did you -- >> i did. i agree. i think in particular, our design and i think one of the commissioners mentioned, really kinds of opens up the stephenson and third street corner. third street is busy. it's one way. right now, you stare at a blank fake veneer brick wall. i think by opening that up, drawing people inside, activating that corner, because there will be a service entrance, so there will be staff there most of the day. i think all of that is going to help and working with mr. sternberg, mr. combs on the other side of stephenson is going to be really important, but i think there is a great opportunity to make that

stephenson, who was one of those who helped the memorial to peace and justice in montgomery, alabamait was real constructive criticism. he said, far too often we talk about civil rights or the experience of african americans in terms of triumph and victory. i was just in greensboro, north carolina, 1960. four young people by sitting in that lunch counter in the woolworth's shocked the conscience of the country. the freedom riders in the deep south, john lewis crossing the edmund pettus bridge. people who live like me like to tell those stories like, you know what? we overcame this. people overcame this. we are a better country for it. but in's memorial, he describes the lynchings, the brutality visited him people in this country based on their race and the color of their skin. just outside of houston, texas, they just discovered a graveyard . not from the days of slavery or the era of the civil war but the turn of the last century, comprised of black americans who were arrested and literally worked to death. they did the forensic investigation. they see the muscles torn, literally, f

ist brian stephenson told me before you talk about payments and money, you must talk about the truthnd the facts of the full story. everybody must understand what is happening in this country. he said, you may not be able to have a truth and reconciliation commission like you had in south africa. you may not be able to force the coming together that we are beginning to see and rwanda. you may not have -- as they did in germany -- forcing every single citizen, almost every citizen -- to go to those places they would otherwise denied to address their complicity in the problem they created in the deaths of millions. we need something like that here, but i'll just be honest with you. given the composition of this country and the fact that we are still a white majority and far to me people who look like me are going to voluntarily take that action -- brian stephenson said this has to happen at a community by community level. i am all for sheila jackson that was of a reparations commission. i would find that into law in a heartbeat. but i want to make sure in every community, at every leve

stephenson talks if he agrees. david: by the way, will you buy the equipment of huawei? allowed to? randall: our government has said not to. i get we are not using huawei, the largest equipment producer in the world for telecom equipment. but, look, our government is being very aggressive on this, that this is a security risk. i don't think we, our government is doing their best work in explaining why the security risk exists. and to me, the biggest risk is not that the chinese government might listen in on our phone conversations or, you know, mine our data somehow if we use their equipment. that's not the issue. we can now put millions of connected devices in a square mile. this will be the basis for autonomous cars. five to 10 years from now, every manufacturing floor will be attached to 5-g. 5-g will be driving robotics. 5-g will be driving the manufacturing floor. 5-g will be involved in traffic management around our cities. i mean, we'll be using this in utilities. we'll be using this in refineries. we have to ask our question -- ourselves a question. if that much

ceo randall stephenson has talked quite a bit about his focus on paying down at&t's debt hulu ceo saying they thank at&t for their support and look forward to collaboration in the future the key thing is we knew at&t wanted to sell its stake there was a lot of speculation about whether disney which now controls 60% of hulu would buy that stake or whether nbc universal, cnbc's parent company, which controls 30% of hulu would buy that stake. instead, at&t and hulu's solution was to buy that stake directly so that sort of addresses that issue. it means -- disney will still have a controlling share of hulu, but did not sort of effectively increase its share of the company the most important thing here is that disney still controls the voting shares in hulu. but there's no sort of change in ownership structure here hulu itself bought back that 10% from at&t. >> any idea on what the path forward is for hulu. comcast having a decent minority stake in the thing i'm sure. both sides would want the whole thing. >> absolutely. well, you know, i think it's been discussed a lot about whether disney w

and in the beginning there were critical writing about johnson, particularly when he ran against stephensonin 1948 the senate campaign. and i think he has become -- and another word to use. receptive or gentle in his criticism. and of course, it's volumes that are beautifully written and are a model of how to engage a general audience. but i'll be curious to see what his presidential volumes will turn out to be. >> he went to the university of illinois to get your undergraduate degree in history, phd and masters from columbia. i wrote down the place that you talk in your life, boston university, columbia, oxford, ucla for how many years? >> thirty year. >> on campus? >> yes. >> caltech, now teaching at stanford. >> a teacher stanford university of washington. i teach a seminar. i looked at the picture, who is that handsome young fella you had a camera. >> twenty-three years ago. >> son matt, what did he do? he has a bachelors degree from berkeley, phd in latin american political history from columbia and he became a speechwriter for two and half years. currently he is a full-time faculty me

because i know you join my feeling to be dissatisfied that we live in a nation, as my friend brian stephenson that has a criminal justice system that treats you better if you are rich and guilty than if you are poor an innocent. that we live in a nation where millions of children find it easier to get unleaded gasoline than unleaded water. that in this great nation, we have millions of people who work full-time jobs but dignity has been stripped of the work. a tax on union. you have more americans now finding themselves with more month at the end of their money than more money at the end of their month. we live in a nation where corporate power has gotten so much, they are now finding ways as they have in the past, to publicize the cost on society and privatize their profits. now everything i just mentioned was going on before trump was elected. we have to be serious about what is happening. i am traveling all over the country now and i see, from iowa to south carolina, that it is not just about who is president. state legislatures are attacking public education. state legislatures are attack

janel stephenson is one of the brave research participants who helped make this happen and whose story was featured on tbs 60 minutes. throughout her young life as you can see she was often hospitalized even at christmas with santa claus next to her bed. she has experienced over the course of her 20 years just about the worst pain a human can imagine for these crises. she decided to take a bold step for herself and others for this condition and signed up for a gene therapy trial. this trial her own bone marrow stem cells were removed, modified to compensate for that mutation and then infused back into her body where they began producing healthy red blood cells. they transformation has been incredible. here she is sitting alongside her father wearing her white uniform and here she is remember somebody who was almost bedridden before this procedure, remember she used to struggle just to walk up a flight of stairs. a fall like this would have landed her in the hospital. >> good job. you did it. >> what was going through your head as you are watching her being thrown to the mat? >> i was j

now i'm a democrat. ,i voted for stephenson way back. and i have a mind like david eisenhower.s a long time ago. but i am a democrat and you define me differently from the way that i think i am -- mr. trump in the white house does the same thing. i'm demonized every day by people who don't have a single clue. who have never walked in a democrat's shoes. who has never striven to make this a more equitable world for everybody. back in 1960, i was born in southwest texas and a black folks, white folks they did not , mix. you didn't talk to each other. you avoided each other in every way. in i was a scoutmaster for three 1960, years. of that boy scout troop. had two more years to go. the phone rang in my office. i answered. it was a woman obviously because of the tone of her voice she was black and she asked of her son could be a member of the troop i and i told her of course. bring him over to our meeting. that night the boy started the meeting. i had talked to him before that. we went to do paperwork so they could get merit badges and the like and comes a knock at my door. and it

we can't wait because we have a criminal justice system that in the words of my friend brian stephenson you're poor and innocent. a system -- a system so deeply baked with bias that it ruthlessly discriminates against black people and brown people and low-income people with mental illnesses, folks with addiction. we can't wait when we have an economy for people who work two or three jobs, pick up extra shifts where they can and they still can't pay the bills. profits are soaring while wages for most americans have barely bijed. massive corporations have taken over entire industries, killing off competition, driving out innovation, squeezing out small businesses. and american family farmers, our first entrepreneurs, are disappearing at a disturbing rate. we have had decades of unjust policies that have destroyed our economy and extracted money from our commonwealth and plowed it into tax cuts for the wealthy and wars overseas we didn't have to fight. instead of investing in the things we all know grow our economy and create more opportunity for all, like education and infrastructure. and
