Anti-Defamation League CEO: When We Make Progress, Everybody Wins
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO & national director of the Anti-Defamation League, and Rick Smolan, author and photographer of the new Book, "THE GOOD FIGHT: America's Ongoing Struggle for Justice," discuss the injustices against minority communities over the last century. The book seeks to put today's social issues into perspective, by juxtaposing them with those of the past.
The book aims to show just how far the journey for justice has come, but even more so what still needs to be done.
Smolan talked to Cheddar about an app that accompanies the book, which allows readers to have a play-by-play type of look at the events. The app will bring up videos and TED Talks for context.
