Mayor Booker

By Larry James
April 1, 2008

I've referenced Cory Booker, Mayor of Newark, NJ, here in the past. His personal story and his vision for urban America captured my attention when I first read about his work. The fact that he chose to live in public housing was what initially caused me to take a closer look at this young leader.

Last Friday evening, Booker appeared on Bill Moyers Journal, a PBS program that aired here in Dallas. You can catch his interview with Moyers here, as well as find your way to a informative segment on the 40th anniversary of the Kerner Commission Report on race relations in the U. S. Let me know what you think of Mayor Booker.
