it could be interpreted as utopia or a distopia. and you know, detroit has the legacy of being the original you on utopia of the american dream of a place that the middle class could flourish. a place where you could own your own home and own the product that you made. and our question is has it turned into a distopia? can it become a utopia again? what is it to the viewer when you watch our film? >> jennifer: i'm curious heidi, after making the movie do you feel more or less hopeful about detroit's future? >> that's a complicated question. i feel that the problems are very hard to solve. this has been a long time coming. the problems that plague detroit and issues that face america right now in terms of how to replace all of these jobs that have left manufacturing and what do we deal with, global competition, how do we do better, these are big issues the whole country is struggling with. in terms of detroit, i feel like detroiters have been suffering for a longer time than most americans and so in a way they're more wiser and they'

>> if we live in utopia they would skip to work and share cookies on the coffee break. we are seeing even though people are in jobs they can't stand. myself not included. you go to work because you have pay the bills and keep yourosholted going. you are not quiting on yourself and that is part of the american drive that is keeping the going. >> is it good that 63 percent . workers feel stressed out and extreme fatigue. is that good for business? >> no, it is not good that americans are feeling stressed out. we are in bad economic times and have the lowest labor participate . 37 million americans are in poverty out there. but the fact that americans show up and go to work. it is what the greatest generation did in world war ii. i have been over to see what our soldiers are doing. times are tough and merrence are stressed and we have structurally high unemployment and america is n used to that. but americans show up to work and plow ahead. >> more americans say showing up to work is a number one priority. is that good. >> i agree with everybody else. obviously part of wha

there is an element of this idea of utopia in my work. you can trace it back for several books. i do not have any solutions, unlike my political solutions, which would put us back on track in a year. i am just posing the question and i am exploring the stories for my own benefit. i want to put myself inside these people and see what they might have -- what they might have actually said and however but it felt. tavis: i have not had a chance to ask you this in all the conversations we have had. tell me about your process. i know you are away from usc because you are out on tour. you are not teaching this semester. how does your process work? you are putting out these best- selling books and novels and teaching at the same time. how do you do all that? >> i was born hyperactive. in my day, when i was a kid, we did not have psychiatrists and ritalin. we just had a back door.
