Review of Barbara Jordan Speech on Watergate and the Constitution


A well-researched, well-executed look back at Barbara Jordan's 'Watergate speech'. As someone who was too young to understand the hearings as they were aired on tv, but who wants to learn more about Ms. Jordan and her legacy, I appreciated the historical, political, and jouralistic context provided by contemporary sources. Like the words of Ms. Jordan herself, this piece was authoritative and inspiring.
