Dr. Mary Frances Berry Talks with Tavis Smiley about the Need for a Human Rights Commission

June 10, 2009 - Posted by Tyler Lewis

LCCREF Board Member Dr. Mary Frances Berry appeared on PBS' "Tavis Smiley" last night to discuss her new book on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, "And Justice for All: The United States Commission on Civil Rights and the Continuing Struggle for Freedom in America." 

In this video, Berry explains what has prevented the commission from maintaining its independence and why we need a new human rights commission.
