John Lewis and the Right to Vote

Amy Goodman spends the entire hour with Congressman John Lewis to discuss the long struggle for voting rights.

His dedication to the highest ethical standards and moral principles has won him the admiration of many of his colleagues on both sides of the aisle in the United States Congress.
