    Ugh-looks like Elijah Cummings got something too. Kinda makes it look like an award for idiots. But congrats to Marin nonetheless. Hope she does great things with Baltimore.

      You respect history but not John Lewis? What do you think “history” is? Something apart from the acts of individuals?

        The current incarnation of john Lewis seems to have forgotten everything he stood for with Dr King. So, no, he is not a man to respect. But his actions while a member of a noble cause gives him a place in history that is respectable.

    Great interview done by Bruce Duffie in Chicago with Mariunan Alsop, and most certainly worth a read if you’re interested in her, and a few straight facts too! Sorry about the history for some of you!
