William Spriggs Final Interview

from Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson Hosted by Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson

AFL-CIO Chief Economist and Howard University Economics Chair Dr. William E. Spriggs joined Make It Plain for the final time May 8, 2023, before his passing, June 6, 2023. Ever the teacher, he compared African American unemployment to the NBA not allowing Black players. And he wished for Affirmative Action to continue. Bill was a revolutionary on behalf of labor rights, civil rights, economic justice, education and freedom. And a beloved, faithful friend. God will certainly seat Bill at His Right Hand. Let us all pray for his immediate family, his AFLCIO and Howard families, and for ourselves, as he had no peer. Àṣẹ ☥ & Amen † 🙏🏿 Rev. Mark Thompson
