U.S. Commission on Civil Rights

Listen Monday, Dec. 13, 2004 at 12:06 p.m. in Politics

With the departure of Mary Frances Berry from the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, both supporters and detractors are predicting a new era for this often controversial body. We examine the future goals of this commission under a new generation of civil rights leaders.
