Banking on Lower Income Neighborhoods

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 31, 2010
Banks open branches in most neighborhoods, but they usually avoid the lower-income ones. Derrick D. Cephas, the president of Amalgamated Banks, explains why he's courting New Yorkers in these areas. Plus, we want to know if you met your spouse using the internet; how the Irish and the Saudis are helping to prop up Manhattan real estate prices; a look at Senator Obama's week on the campaign trail, with a call-in for African-American listeners on his candidacy; and we listen live to the Albany D.A.'s press conference on Choppergate.
