Tribute to Barbara Jordan and Shirley Chisholm

On Martin Luther King Day, California Congresswoman Barbara Lee, National Public Radio's senior news analyst Cokie Roberts, and former Texas Governor Ann Richards discuss the remarkable political careers of two African American women, Barbara Jordan and Shirley Chisholm. Veteran television and documentary producer and WGBH commentator Callie Crossley moderates. Barbara Jordan, who died 10 years ago, was elected to the Texas Senate in 1966 and was the first African American woman from a southern state to serve in the US House of Representatives. Shirley Chisholm, who passed away a year ago, was the first African American woman elected to the US Congress and the first African American to run as a Democratic presidential candidate in 1972.
