we are on the road in tuscaloosa exploring the history and literary scene of this alabama town. filmed at the university of alabama with its rich, historic sites. while we are there, we will be doing some sightseeing. our comcast cable partners in tuscaloosa, alabama -- once our team returns, we will put the program together and future the program during the weekend of april 16 and 17th on book tv, c-span2, and american history tv on c-span3. as always, you can i more information -- you can find more information on www.c-span.org. let's get a couple more calls. we go to mark who is in the valley, washington. democrat's line. good morning. caller: good morning. i feel like we should close the majority of bases around the world and keep the ones that are for the protection of america. take the trillions of dollars to involve -- to keep all of the spaces open and bring it back to america, rebuild this country for a change, and i agree with trump, even though i caucused for burning yesterday. of theick up too much cost. host: so you caucused for bernie sanders. if the general electi

tuscaloosa is next, line for all others. john, good morning. caller: good morning. yes, i don't think anybody that's earning a minimum wage could even, you know, afford to get to work and back. so how can you afford to feed and clothe yourself, especially if you have a child that you want to take care of and have a school, you know, that they have to go to? now, the other thing is, i hear some people talking about, you know, foreigners taking our jobs. foreigners aren't taking any jobs from americans. if you want to look at it, they're exploiting these people that come over here, the prisoners who are in federal prisons, they make a lot of products like prosthesis. they make army uniforms, army helmets. they make an array of things, and they only get paid $2 and $3 an hour. now, that's where a lot of your jobs are going to, because they equipment, computer mouses. and the other thing that they do is you don't see any houses or anything like that in the united states anymore, because the prisoner does all the beef, all the food, and most of the stuff the prisoners ar

the lady dragons beat central high school from tuscaloosa, alabama, 58-33, imploring what local news said was a suffocating pressure defense to cruise to their third consecutive title on march 5, 2016, at the birmingham jefferson convention complex legacy arena in birmingham, alabama. they forced 32 turnovers that resulted in 19 points on their way to victories. the sign on our wall says, discipline plus defense equals championships, said winona high school coach emanuel bell. we're going to press, that's what we do. we put pressure on the other side. the m.v.p. of the game was alexus dye who scored 12 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. our defense is what got us here and led us to the win, said dye. the other star of the team was winona's very own kate lynn rogers who blocked six shots, handed out three assists and added two steals. this is what we came here for and we want to go out with a bang, said rogers. more noteworthy is the fact that according to coach bell every kid on my team averages 3.0 g.p.a. or higher. it's easy to coach players with academic and athletic talent, says coa
