Freedom Rider Dr. Mary Jean Smith

As the journey continues on the Black Voters Matter Freedom Ride, Mark talks to one of the original Freedom Riders, Dr. Mary Jean Smith. She shares the story of her early days of activism, joining up with John Lewis from Nashville, which led to her eventual arrest. These courageous humans risked their lives on a daily basis in the name of racial justice, and we must do our part to preserve their names and fortitude in history.
