The, you know, at the end, i want it to be an irritant in some way. Shad can you give us an example of an irritating idea that you throw out at us . Young jean oh, well, you know, i think, uh, for me personally, um, one of the most irritating ideas in the show is that, you know, for me, as an asianamerican female, um, i use my asianamerican femaleness as an excuse to not actually take any concrete Political Action other than pursuing my career as an artist and becoming visible as an asianamerican female, you know . And so, the idea that this is something that might not necessarily be enoughyou know, because when you look at a straight, white man who doesnt have that option of saying, like, well, all i gotta do is just, you know, focus on me, and im improving the world, you know . That, that, uh, i find that an irritating idea. [both laugh] shad because society is not gonna hold you to account but, morally, theres still a bit of problem there. Young jean exactly. Shad with just considering your success, um, a political act. Young jean right idea that its just a matter of flipping things, you know, so, you know, on some level, the idea of a world run by asian women is appealing to me, you know, because, uh, you know, who, who doesnt, you know, who can resist that level of privilege . But i dont think that will solve anything. Um, you know, so i think, you know, the sort of underlying, sort of economic problems that are so closely tied into race are not gonna be addressed just by minorities taking over power. Shad yeah. Becoming the, you know, the exploiters. Young jean exactly, yeah. Shad now, i read that you usually cast your performance first. Young jean yes. Shad and then write your roles. Young jean mm hmm. Shad its a really fascinating process. Based on your conversations with these actors, after youve casted them. Why do you do it that way . Young jean um, because i, um, i love writing to actors strengths, and i, and i want, you know, the production to just experience, you know, so thats its very, sort, truthful to them, in a way. But, with this show, there was an exception to the process. Um, because, you know, for example, when i did the shipment, which had, um, an allblack cast, uh, you know, everything really just came from them. Uh, whereas in this show, i actually felt the need for more voices than just straight, white male voices. Know, and throughout, i always made sure the room was filled with women and queer people and, um, minorities andwho were sort of observing what was going on and offering their thoughts on, um shad like, what sort of thoughts . [young jean laughs] shad what are they commenting on . Young jean well, you know, its interesting. Uh, to some extent, the origin of the play was i was in a room full of, you know, women, queer people and minorities and, you know, i said, just tell me what you think of straight white men, and it was so, uh, so negative, um, just really, really negative. And i said, well, you know, you know, like, obviously, like, you know, youre not gonna genocide them. You know, like, what can they do . And, um, they gave me a list of things that they wanted straight white men to do. Um, and, uh, and so i went home and secretly wrote a character based on that list and brought it back to them, not telling them that thats what it was, and they all hated him. [shad chuckles] young jean they all absolutely hated him. So that was a huge insight. Shad what do you think is behind that . Young jean well, you know, i think, i think that whats behind that is a little bit of what i was talking about. Its this sort of underlying problem of, you know, our current cultural moment is so much about individualistic success. You know, so to some extent, to be a loser is far worse even than to be, you know, a misogynist. Shad well, thanks so much. Lots of, uh, important questions came out of this. I really find it interesting that this question of individualism versus, uh, collective, um, sort of, um, action came out of this play, as well. Thank you so much.

The most important part of this investigation right now is, are they lone players, the two of them, or are they connected to other people . Reporter but if this couple was truly inspired by isis, it marks a dangerous evolution in the u. S. Terror threat.

The 1yearold said yesterday theyd is cancerfree. Carter made the surprise announcement in a Georgia Church where he teams sunday school. In august he started treatment for melanoma that spread from his liver to his brain. With us with more is abcs medical editor dan childs. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. President carter . Is he really in remission . This is very good news. The fact that it looks like this treatment is helping him. However, doctors wouldnt use the word remission yet. Usually someone needs to be as he says cancerfree for a very long time before doctors could conclude hey, maybe weve beaten this back. Maybe weve really eliminated cancer from his system. So theres a long ways to go before we get there. Again, this is good news. Dan, its been referred to as an experimental c drug. Its been approved by the da, for example. That is correct. In 2014, it was approved more melanoma and certain types of lung cancer. Theyre studying it for other types of cancer. Theres a possibility maybe in the future it could be used for any number of cancers. It really is an interesting addition to the arsenal that doctors have against cancer. If youre watching this and you know someone whos got a similar condition, is this a time to be excited . News, or would you caution against that . Richard, its both things. You really would take some hope in this because it shows that there is a drug here that could be better than what has been available before. But you also meed to know that you know, here we have this drug thats being used in very late stage cancer patients. Sure it might work for one person. It may not work quite, as well for another person. Theres study that needs to happen but it is something thats hopeful. And its something that doctors are keeping their fingers crossed on. And you know, dan, the thing about president carter, he is so determined. Hes always been positive and faith is a huge part of his life. Are there any medical studies about the influence of positive attitude and faithbased approach to your diagnosis that makes a difference . Well, the studies on this are few and far between. Theyre very inconclusive. We dont know, for example, whether having strong faith or a very positive outlook affects your cancer in any sort of what we do know is that people who respond to these sorts of situations possibly tend to have better outcomes. If you have a good outlook, it may help you in other aspects of your life that also contribute to how well you fight off this cancer. So its certainly not a bad thing. He has a good outlook. Such a positive person. Hes got one of the best out of Office Careers of any president. Youre right. I think he even admitted it that he felt that his career after leaving office was probably. Was better than the one in the office. Thank you so much. Abcs medical editor dan childs. Thanks for joining us this morning, dan. Thank you.

Did you see we had president obama giving reassurances to the public hoping to ease fears after last weeks deadly terror attack in San Bernardino. Of course, the president delivered a rare primetime speech promising to step up attacks on isis while making it clear the fight is not between america and islam. Our coverage begins with Abcs Jonathan Karl at the white house. Reporter in just the Third Oval Office address of his presidency, the president addressed the attacks in california and paris bluntly saying what happened in he said we are at war with terrorists and have been since 9 11. As commander in chief, i have no greater responsibility than the security of the American People. As a father to two young daughters who are the most precious part of my life, i know that we see ourselves with friends and coworkers at a Holiday Party like the one in San Bernardino. I know we see our kids in the faces of the young People Killed in paris. And i know that after so much war, Many Americans are asking whether we are confronted by a cancer that has no immediate cure. Well, heres what i want you to know, the threat from terrorism is real, but we will overcome it. Declared that isil or isis will be defeated and he outlined a series of steps that have been taken in terms of the United States military effort in iraq and in syria, also getting more contributions from our allies in europe. The president also though made it clear that we are not at war with islam. About the importance of not vilifying muslims talking about Muslim Americans as being patriotic americans. Its our responsibility to americans should somehow be treated differently. Because when we travel down that road, we lose. The president did call for some action from congress, including passing some Gun Legislation which really doesnt have much of a chance of passing at all in the face of republican opposition. He also called for congress to pass an authorization for the use of military force in iraq and syria. This is something that the white house called for a year ago, still hasnt happened. And frankly, there still isnt much action in congress towards that. Jonathan karl, abc news, the white house. The president ial candidates were quick to respond to the president s speech last night starting with marco rubio who told fox news that the American People are scared because president obama is overwhelmed by these terror attacks.
