F-Word: 
Inflating Hopes & Dreams in Manchin Country?

"Something exciting is happening in McDowell County, West Virginia. There, in what used to be coal country, the American Federation of Teachers is leading a project called Reconnecting McDowell.  It's a program initiated over a decade ago by Gayle Manchin, wife of now Senator (then Governor) Joe, and it makes you think long and hard about her husband." The F-Word is released bi-weekly featuring timely commentaries by Laura Flanders and guests.
