On the Road with The Weeping Time.... in Louisiana and New York City

I didn’t actually have the pleasure of visiting Louisiana this past week  but I spoke with Jim Brown of the show, Common Sense, about the book and the legacy of slavery in America.  Have a listen at the 33 minute mark.  I enjoyed our conversation and his very thoughtful questions.
