As you all know by now, I’m a big fan of former Secretary of Labour, Robert Reich.  He’s intelligent, well-spoken, experienced, and also has a sense of humour.  Recently, he interviewed Tennessee state Representative Justin Jones, who you may remember was one of two Black legislators temporarily expelled from the Tennessee House last month.  This is Reich’s take on the interview, and there is a short (6 minutes) YouTube video at the end that I really hope you’ll watch, for it is well worth the time spent and I found it gave me a sense of who Justin Jones is and his determination to bring about positive changes.  I believe this young man is going places, and he gave me a glimmer of hope for the future.
