Motor City Mavens feat. Journalists Rochelle Riley, John "Mason," & Jemele Hill

We are kicking off Black History Month in a BIG way, celebrating some of our favorite interviews we've had in the 5yrs we've doing the Thinking Out Loud Radio Show. Join us this week as in our Motor City Mavens Edition as we highlight 3 interviews with some of Black America's best and brightest journalists, in the person of Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist Rochelle Riley, Legendary Broadcaster John "Mason" and Awarding Winning Journalist & Podcast Host Jemele Hill. These iconic journalists share everything from how they got started to some of their most memorable moments as journalist and much more. We are just providing excerpts of their interviews, but we encourage to go and check out the entire interview from our podcast wherever you listen to your podcast including our website MichaelNimmons.com 

PLUS, we have a powerful excerpt from an address given by Former President Barack Obama back in 2015 at the Edmund Petitus Bridge as they marked 50yrs since that historic march for voting rights. Such an apropos speech, especially given the courageous leaders who were involved; sainted Civil Rights Leader Rev. Dr. King and Former Congressman John Lewis. And, given the current debate about voting rights and the necessary for a universal federal mandate more than 50yrs later. This show is appointment listening, and we hope you listen, share and share some more.
