Program Overview
Ken Davis is joined by educator, political leader and author Dick Simpson for a conversation about his new book The Good Fight, which traces Simpson’s sixty years of activism for progressive causes. They discuss his City Council battles as an alderman in the 70s, his time as an ordained minister and his participation in fights to disband the Chicago Police Red Squad, end most patronage through the Shakman decrees and redistrict the City Council to provide Harold Washington a Council majority in his final year as Mayor.
