you measure income inequality, how do you look at two different societies and say this is one more unequal than that when? or how to look at the same society in different periods of time and say how has inequality changed? here at least, to the best of my knowledge, if you compare the united states outfitted with the kind that i grew up in let's in 1980s, i don't think there's any dispute that our society is more economically unequal now. basically you could use any measure you want and that story is pretty clear. >> host: if somebody sits down at a blackjack table, should they play for two hours or 10 hours mathematically. >> guest: boy, i have to say i think i've been to a blackjack table once in my life. i lost 20 bucks and i think it took me about four seconds fix whatever it i don't think i hae enough capital statistic for either two hours or 10 hours. >> host: you talk about gambling in your book is but i do anything gambling is such a fascinating test case because once again people of moral feelings about it. to have mathematical feelings about it. i think everybody knows that for m

professor noeguera, thank you for joining us. 61 years after separate and unequal education, you sayt's still happening. why is this. >> because the courts have made it difficult to continue to pursue integration. that's after we've made quite a bit of progress in the country, especially in the south, but now we know schools in the north and west are more segregated now than 30 years ago. so now we find ourselves in a situation where not only are schools increasingly racially separate but we're also concentrating the poorest children in schools that have the fewest resources. >> reporter: why? i would say a combination of lack of investment in schools that serve poor children and the fact that we have no longer the political will. >> reporter: but you have argued that separate schools play a role in perpetuating inequality not just in the schools but in general. >> they do because separate is still unequal in education. racially separate schools. even when the schools do a good job, the learning opportunities you have with the child will influence what kind of college you go into, wh

nowhere in this debate is the problem of unequal salaries in america. nowhere in this debate is the problem of concentrated poverty in our cities. the debate comes down to whether you support the death penalty or not. what else is bush doing in this ad? he is linking the democratic party to crime, two lacks morals, and also to african-americans, making willie horton the face of the party. remember, what we are talking about today, the 1992 election, all of this is on bill clinton's mind as he runs for president, right? all of this is on bill clinton's mind. not to get framed early, fears about getting links to crime and race in certain ways. and clinton has to think this through as he runs for president. that is the point we are trying to get to. the other candidate in 1988 is jesse jackson. jesse jackson makes an historic run for president, and as the campaign ends, dukakis and jackson come together. jackson is given a prominent role in the convention, some of jackson's platform planks are added to the democrats' national platform, and there is a sense

you compare the united states today than what i grew up in the 1980's, our society is more economic unequal. you can choose any measure you want and that story is pretty clear. >> host: if somebody sits down at the blackjack table should they play for two hours or ten hours mathematically? >> guest: boy, i have to say that i have been to a blackjack table once in my life. i lost 20 bucks and it took me about four seconds so at that rate i don't have capital to sit for either two hours or 10 hours. >> host: gambling is such a fascinating game, people have moral feelings about it, mathematical feelings about it. i think everybody knows that for most people in most circumstances gambling is not a wise investment. if you have money that you want to do something with, probably playing blackjack is not the mideast revenue-enhancing choice that could make. this leads, actually, what i write in the book is popular kinds of gambling which is playing the lottery. not quite as glamorous as playing the blackjack table. almost everyone will tell you it's a bad bet so why do so many people do it. the cra

many of these institutions were still unequal, unequal in terms of what they had access to, in terms of the teachers, and even just in the rural part of the world that we lived in. i mean, we did not have access to the kind of tax base as a lot of people who had a certain kind of affluency had. obviously my father thought it was a good thing that people were beginning to understand what many of them had known for a long time -- that racism and discrimination and bigotry of any kind is a moral sin and the stain of this country and that we all would have to pay a price for the oppressor and the oppressed. i think my father's attitude was, what he learned was that as the government was giving all this rhetoric about making people equal, what he needed to do was to find a farm, find an institution where he could raise his children, sort of like an incubator so that he can influence their value system, their work ethic, their discipline, their routine, to teach them how to work, to teach them how to fish as he was building his farm. you know, my parents had a 250 acre farm that they bough

in order to make this work for you in the complex life you have, which i think, you know, i'll unequalmen are is partly due to the maneuverability have. but it's in your discussion and also in mala's, if breast-feeding is the key thing, that's in, out, up, down, then disappear, and then disappear from the discussion. it's fascinating to me that people who have written about how inequality cannot be achieved without men taking real central fundamental charge of children along with women. and lots of feminists are ambivalent about the. think about all the women who say he can't do it. only i can do it. there's this huge number of places where people don't want to hear about this. this is women's fear, women's bodies. i think you could easily configure a feminists position that says what ever one of these decisions you are making, issue would be, arguably sharing the domestic work? because inequality is deeply embedded in the lack of sharing a domestic work, and in the break between public and private space. so that the meat is where it happens. how it's reproduced. so i love your argumen

nobody wants to be the poster child for unequal pay for equal work, but spurned on by that note, that's exactly what happened to me. my legal battle for fair pay wound its way up to the u.s. supreme court, and when they decided in 2007 that good year had been paying me unfairly long enough to make it legal. i knew i wasn't ready to give up fighting for fair pay. i won't lie to you. i was pretty devastated by that decision. i fought back. standing next to president obama when he made the lily ledbetter act, the first bill he signed into law, was one of the proudest moments of my life. it was a great day here at the white house, but i knew our work was only beginning. my bill was just a down payment in this fight. in the years since, the companion bill to my law, the paycheck fairness act, has passed the house twice, but we came two votes short in the senate on two votes. while paycheck fairness has since stalled, we're not giving up on it. our federal laws badly need an update, and in the in the meantime president obama has not rested on his ledbetter laurels. he created equal pay task f
