I received an email from a reader about a round table on the Tavis Smiley Show. Apparently, Tavis will have a panel discussing Thomas’s book and his appearance on 60 Minutes. Panelists are Marc Morial, President and CEO of The National Urban League, Princeton Professor Cornel West, and Columbia University President, Farah Jasmine Griffin. If you are in New York, the Tavis Smiley Show airs at 12 midnight on PBS.\u00a0 If you are in another market, I’m not sure of the time, but you can check you local PBS station.
\nDid anyone else see the 60 Minutes interview with Thomas?\u00a0\u00a0 I thought he came off as really bitter.\u00a0 He kept using the anchor’s name in a pejorative way.\u00a0 It was very uncomfortable from my vantage point.\u00a0 For those interested in abortion and sexual harassment issues, Thomas made the claim that the controversy surrounding his appointment was really about abortion.\u00a0 The panel on the Tavis Smiley Show will discuss this issue in some depth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
