Black Politics with Chris Owens...our weird week in politics

A message from Chris Owens . . .

I'm recapping our strange week in politics with Political Strategist, Basil Smikle, who was a top aide to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and joined the Senator’s delegations to Vietnam and Israel for the White House during the Clinton Administration. Smikle teaches at Columbia University’s Graduate School of International and Public Affairs.

And, in our regular segment on protecting your vote: I'll speak with Ryan King, Policy Analyst with The Sentencing Project about how votes are stolen from ex-offenders. "The credibility of our elections and democratic principles are compromised by laws that exclude citizens because of their past failings," King says. www.sentencingproject.org [1]
