Desk 88: Eight Progressive Senators Who Changed America

Season 24 Episode 69 | 56m 46s

Since his election to the U.S. Senate in 2006, Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown has sat on the Senate floor at a mahogany desk with a unique history. In his newest book, Desk 88, he tells the story of eight of the Senators who inhabited the desk before him, all of which — despite their flaws and frequent setbacks — made a decisive contribution to the creation of a more just America.
