Leader Jeffries | Work to Own | St. Mary's

Leader Jeffries – Norah O'Donnell profiles Congressman Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic leader in the U.S. House of Representatives, who might become the first-ever Black Speaker of the House, tracing his Brooklyn roots to one of the most powerful positions in American politics. O'Donnell meets Jeffries on Capitol Hill to talk about his caucus' decision to save current Speaker Mike Johnson's job, his views on Israel's approach to Hamas and the civilian casualties in Gaza, the migrant crisis and how the debate over reproductive rights will impact the race for the White House and Congress. Keith Sharman is the producer.

Work to Own – As the American wealth gap continues to widen, correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on an unlikely effort to get more money in the hands of rank-and-file workers. Pete Stavros is an executive at one of the biggest private equity firms in the country, KKR. His industry is famously cutthroat, but Stavros has emerged as a leading advocate for the concept of employee ownership, which takes the same incentives that have long helped the C-suite get rich and applies them to people working factories, flatbeds and farms. Wertheim travels to rural Illinois to find out how this model has impacted workers, and whether it's good for business. David M. Levine is the producer.

St. Mary's – Correspondent Bill Whitaker visits New Orleans, where two high school seniors solved a mathematical puzzle that was thought to be impossible for 2,000 years. Whitaker speaks to the students, their families and the teachers at their school, St. Mary's Academy, that has been fostering academic excellence and boundless possibilities for its student body of African American girls since the end of the Civil War. Sara Kuzmarov is the producer.
