The film Selma and the fight for the right to vote – in 1965, and now: ARI BERMAN of The Nation comments. He’s an Investigative Journalism Fellow at The Nation Institute, is working on a book about voting rights since 1965.
Plus: Much of the film Selma is based on the work of historian TAYLOR BRANCH. We’ll speak with him about Selma in his book At Canaan’s Edge: Martin Luther King 1965-1968.
Also: Obama’s liberal apologists: TOM FRANK says they helped torpedo change and make the Democrats safe for Wall Street–and it didn’t have to be that way. Tom writes a column for Salon.com.
And we’ll also revisit a conversation with GARRISON KEILLOR—he says it’s time for all of us to become Republicans.
